The Other Child
~Chapter Five~
**************************************************************************** ********************************************************************
"HIEI!!" Boku's call echoed through the house as she entered.
It was the next morning. Yoru was rummaging through the closet trying to find the tool kit. (She had to fix that window before anyone noticed.) Kurama stood in the kitchen. A dishtowel in one hand, and a frying pan in the other. I was in the middle of the living room in my boxer shorts.
"Hiei!" she snapped. Stomping forward she grabbed my ear and dragged me upstairs to her bedroom.
"Bo! What's wrong? Where were you last night?" I gasped and rubbed my ear after she released me.
"Don't play Hiei! You heard the argument between me and my sister last night!" she crossed her arms. I could tell she was at least attempting to keep her voice down.
"Okay!" I protested. "I heard you? So what?"
"That was a private conversation! I just can't believe you heard that and all she said!"
"She? As in Yoru? Well what about you? You said that that night with you and me was just a day in your past!"
"It is!" she snapped. I figured I should try to tip toe around her feelings. I didn't know why she was getting so testy. If anyone I should be the testy end of this conversation.
"So you're saying that you love Yusuke?" I said.
"Yes."
"And that you don't care about me?"
"I do but...Hiei?"
"What? You're pregnant! Of course we shouldn't care about the father! Yusuke will make a better father anyways."
"No Hiei. That's not true. Maybe I did feel for you. But I don't anymore. You never said you loved me!"
"I told you! I told so many times! Boku? Don't you see?" I took her hands and kissed her. "Don't you see I love you?"
**************************************************************************** ********************************************************************
Yoru, Kurama and I all sat in the living room in silence. Boku was gone. She left. I guess it had to happen eventually but...she's gone. I guess I have one real fear here. What if they elope? I hoped they wouldn't. And I would make sure.
"I'm going," I announced. Two pairs of worried eyes followed me as I left.
As I materialized in front of Yusuke's house I saw a light on in the upstairs window. Leaping up into a tree I peered inside. Yusuke and Bo were in there. I adjusted my telepathic abilities and listened in.
"Bo," said Yusuke, "are you sure you're okay?"
"I'm fine!" she snapped. "Just tired."
"It's four in the afternoon."
"So. I didn't sleep well last night."
"You were here last night! I couldn't sleep because of you. Did you know that you sing in another language while you sleep?"
"Yusuke!" Boku sat with her back to him. After a moment he started to massage her shoulders and whisper things I couldn't (and to be honest didn't want to) pick up.
"Boku," I finally heard. "What's going on?"
"I-I can't say," she stammered. "Yusuke I'm confused. I dunno what to do?"
"Why? What happened?"
"Yusuke you know I love you right?"
"Of course. I love you too you know. She nodded then continued.
"Yusuke. I don't think I can give you all of my heart."
"That's okay. I just need to be there somewhere. That's enough. Just know that I'm here."
My heart soared. I didn't totally get it all but I think things were leaning my way.
"Yusuke," she said turning to look at him. "What would you say if you found out that I became pregnant before we were engaged."
"That'd be fine."
"And that the child wasn't yours."
Silence.
"Boku. I told you. As long as I am somewhere in your icy heart I'll be okay. And any child of yours is a child of mine."
"Good." she said.
I tuned back to my own thoughts and choked. She didn't want me. And Yusuke was okay with the fact that the kid wasn't his. I fell/climbed down from the tree and walked for a long time. Maybe it would be best for everyone if I just left.
**************************************************************************** ********************************************************************
Whoa. Okay all you Yusuke fans PLEASE don't kill me! I just was re-reading this and was like whoa. Yusuke has a real warped personality here. But it suits the story =D So I guess you guys will have to deal with it. I'll get the next chapter up as soon as I get an idea and write about it!
