Chapter 5
Chillin' at the Park
The group arrived at the park at around six .
While Hiei leaned against a tree to watch, the rest of the gang played frisbee (courtesy of Lebiri's materializing skills). An hour later, they were all tired out.
Laughing, Yusuke and Keiko sat on a bench while Lebiri, Kurama, and Kuwabara sat at the bottom of a nearby tree. Hiei sat in it.
Lebiri sat back and stared at the sky while she half listened to Kuwabara's ranting over his strength and how many demons he defeated before. According to him, it was his job to impress all the ladies, even if they didn't like him. "It was good for his image . . ."
Kurama calmly meditated. There were no screaming kids at the park this late. It was the retiring to the safety home time of day, but the Yu Yu Gang was just chillin'.
Yusuke and Keiko were doing the typical couple thing, totally wrapped up in each other.
Hiei didn't care about Kuwabara anymore. Lebiri, clearly, wasn't into guys that bragged.
'Why do I care anyway?' he thought, bored out of his mind.
'Because you like her,' said a voice in the back of his head.
He snorted. 'Only just met her and my mind's had a bad reaction already.'
Hiei shifted on his branch and looked down at her. She was in a totally different world - looking off into space. He wondered what she was thinking...
'I wish somebody would save me form this guys bragging,' Lebiri thought irritably. She tuned him out and began to daydream about Hiei. 'If only I could get him to lighten up. Aw well, it's only day one after all.' She sighed, half annoyed.
Kuwabara switched topics and began talking about his Spirit sword.
Lebiri continued to daydream...
"So Yusuke," Keiko said quietly. She was leaning on him while he held her hand, and put his other arm around her.
Yusuke saved her the trouble of asking. "I'm sorry our date got ruined. But I promise I'll take you out again real soon . . .no interruptions."
Keiko smiled up at him. "Yusuke, Yusuke. Why aren't you this romantic and thoughtful all the time?" she said as he leaned down to kiss her...
"I'm going for a walk," Lebiri stated calmly. She stood up and headed to the dirt path that wove around the park.
Kuwabara stared after her. He fell silent, sensing how suddenly worried she was.
Kurama opened his eyes and watched her. 'Poor kid,' he thought. 'She has a lot to worry about...but she needs some time alone . . .' With that, he began to meditate again.
Kuwabara stayed put. Yusuke and Keiko told her not to take too long, then she left after smiling sadly and nodding. Hiei tried his best not to care . . .
Ah! Gomen! So short! The next chapter will definitely be longer! Gomen!
(short…and kinda pointless, I realize now that I am revising this, ah well)
