House of Secrets
Ch. 4: Feelings
Aspira's eyes opened the second her body touched the bed. "Hiei, why I am I in your room?" she asked as she sat up. He was standing at the window looking out at the stars.
"You fell asleep during the movie."
"Why didn't you take me to my room?" she asked as she walked over to where Hiei stood.
"Baka ona, you don't have a bed," replied Hiei as he continued to look out the window, "sleeping on the floor's going to mess up your back." She looked over at him, 'does that mean he cares about me?'
"Well I'm going to bed, night Hiei," said Aspira as she headed for the door. There was a swish sound and He was in front of her, blocking her way. "Hiei your in my way, could yo..." but she didn't finish her sentence because Hiei had put his arms around her waist and pressed his lips against hers forcefully. She pushed him away, and then slapped him across the face.
"Why in Hell's name did you do that?" hissed Hiei as he touched his cheek.
"Why'd the fuck did you kiss me like that?!?" yelled Aspira as she glared at him.
"Cause I care," he whispered.
"What?" asked Aspira unsure that she had heard him right.
"I care about you, Asp," said Hiei as he brushed a piece of her heir back away from her face. She licked her lips absently as he leaned in to kiss her. This time it was soft and gentle. Their lips parted and Aspira started to chuckle. "What's your problem now?"
"Nothing, my dad called me Asp when I was little," she explained as she smiled at him. She laid her head on his shoulder as she yawned. Hiei led her to the bed and made her lay down. He turned around to leave when she grabbed his wrist. "Sleeping on the floor will ruin your back you know?" Hiei smiled down at her, She was holding her head up with her left hand and was holding on to him with her right.
"What are you suggesting?" She just patted the bed. Hiei sighed and laid down next to her. 'What I'm I doing?' he thought as he rested his head on the black pillow.
'Why did I just ask him to lie down? I can't get close to him.' Aspira thought as she looked at the ceiling. His voice called her out of her thoughts.
"Asp?"
"Yeah.
"What happened to your parents that day?" She closed her eyes and sighed, then looked at him.
"They died."
"How?"
Aspira sat up and looked at him as tears formed in her brown eyes, "Do you always try to bring up bad memories?"
"I was just wondering," he said as he pulled her down into his arms, "I didn't mean to hurt you."
"I know," she said as she wiped away the tears. He stroked her hair then kissed her on the top of the head. 'Why is it I can't stand to see her cry?' thought Hiei as Aspira fell asleep with her head on his chest. 'It's cause you love her,' shot back his mind. 'I would never fall for some weak human ona.' (He's having a discussion with himself) 'But she's not weak. You can tell,' mocked his mind. "Shut up." "What?" asked Aspira as she looked up at him. "Nothing, go back to sleep Asp," said Hiei as he stroked her soft cheek. "Night, Hiei," sighed Aspira as she laid back down and fell asleep. "Goodnight, love," said Hiei as he pulled her closer to his warm body.
The Kitchen the next morning (everyone's at the table except Hiei and Aspira):
"Hey, where's Aspira and Hiei?" asked Yukina as she sat down a plate of pancakes on the table.
"Don't know," said Yusuke and Kuwabara as they started shoveling food into their mouths.
"Well shouldn't we go get them before those two eat all the food?" asked Boton.
"You can wake up the shrimp if you want," said Kuwabara as he took a break from eating, "I wouldn't if you paid me."
"Well I'm going to go wake Aspira up she'll want to eat," said Boton as she left the room.
"Yukina, your pancakes are delicious," said Kurama after he took a bite of his.
"Thanks Kurama."
"Aaahhhhhh!" came Boton's voice from up stairs. Everyone ran up stairs.
"Boton, what is it?" asked Yusuke.
"Aspira, she's not in her room!"
"She's probable in the bathroom," said Kuwabara.
"No I looked there already!"
Hiei's Room:
"What are they yelling about?" asked Aspira as she hear loud voices out side the room.
"Shhh," said Hiei, as he leaned down and kissed her lightly on the lips. She smiled and kissed him back. 'Hiei?' 'What is it Fox?' 'What should I tell the others?' 'What are you talking about?' 'How should I explain the fact that Aspira has not been in her room since last night?' 'I don't care, lie.' With that Hiei blocked Kurama out of his mind and kissed Aspira. Her hands were in his short spiky hair as he pulled her closer to him. He gently nibbled on her lower lip, asking for entrance. She complied as they rolled so that he was lying on top of her. They broke so that they could catch their breath. "I think I'm falling for you," said Aspira as gently bumped his forehead with hers. "I think I am too," said Hiei as he rolled off of her and onto the floor. "Apparently literally," joked Aspira looking at him as the door opened to revile the rest of the housemates. Boton, Kayko, and Yukina just gasped at the sight. Hiei was on the floor tangled in his black sheet and Aspira was looking down at him from the bed with the comforter lying at her waist. "Whoa! The shrimp got lucky," exclaimed Kuwabara. "Baka," said Hiei, before he closed the door on his face. He turned around and looked at Aspira, who was smiling at him. "Where were we?" he asked as he walked over to the bed. "Right here," said Aspira as she pulled him into a powerful lip lock, then pulled away fast, "Now go take a cold shower, you need cooling off." Hiei smirked at her and pounced on the bed and started kissing her on the neck. "Sorry, love, but I'm not going anywhere with out a real good-bye." "Fine," she sighed as she kissed him on the cheek, "Bye, have a fun shower." And she walked out of the room.
The Kitchen:
"Why did he have to go and do that," said Kuwabara as he held a cloth to his nose, "I think he broke it again."
"Don't worry, Kuzama, I'll heal it for you," said Yukina as she made him move his hand out of the way. She touched his nose gently with her hand and healed it back to normal.
"Thank you, Yukina-san," cooed Kuwabara as hearts formed in his eyes.
"Your welcome."
"You shouldn't have healed it," said Kayko, "That was a very rude thing to say."
"Calm down, Kayko," said Yusuke, "You heard them last night."
"No, that was Kurama and Boton, you idiot, Aspira would never do that she only met him three days ago." Boton and Kurama both blush and become very interested in their food.
"What's up with them?" asked Aspira as she walked in from the back stairs.
"Kayko, just embarrassed them," replied Yukina, "Are you hungry?"
"Yeah, I am," said Aspira as she sat down at the table.
"Here you go." Yukina handed her a plate full of pancakes, eggs, and bacon.
"Thanks."
"So?" asked Kayko.
"So what?" replied Aspira as she started eating.
"You and Hiei," prompted Boton.
"Oh, that. What do you want to know?"
"The hole thing," said Kayko.
"From the beginning," added Boton.
"Okay, but I think the boys should leave."
"You heard her get out," said Kayko as she pushed Yusuke, Kuwabara, and Kurama out the door. "Go ahead Aspira." So she told them how she had passed out after fighting, leaving out the scar and flash back, and about last night.
"Wow," said Kayko.
"Yeah," said Boton, "I didn't think Hiei could love anyone other than his sister. Epp." And she ran out of the room.
"What got into her?" asked Aspira as she stared at the door where she had run through.
"Oh, Boton's always doing that," said Kayko as she helped Yukina clear the dishes, "I worry about her some times."
"Well I'm going to go take a shower, I've been wearing this for two days," said Aspira as she headed for the stairs. She went to her room and grabbed an outfit that Kayko and Boton had picked out when they were shopping and headed towards the bathroom.
The Bathroom:
Hiei stepped out of the shower and rapped a towel around his waist, as Aspira walked in.
"Ona, what are you doing in here?" asked Hiei and a very pissed off tone.
"I was going to take a shower," said Aspira as she sat her stuff down on the toilet lid, "Tell me when you're done." And headed back to the door. Hiei grabbed her arm and mad her face him. "Hiei, I said a cold shower."
He just looked at her as he closed the door with his Jagan. She turned her head to see the door close with no help. "How did that clo..." he kissed her gently as he pulled her close to him.
"Hiei, can I please go take a shower, I'm filthy," said Aspira as she pulled out of the kiss.
"Fine, Asp," he replied and he kissed her on the forehead and left the room. (he's slightly taller than her)
'I'm in trouble,' thought Aspira as she turned on the water, 'I can't help but to fall for him.' 'What am I saying, I will not fall in love with him.'(she's talking to herself) 'Wait when did I say anything about love?' 'I didn't, man I'm in trouble.'
So, whatch ya think? Review. : )
