Hiei walked into Genkai's temple to see Genkai sitting on a chair walking TV.
"Hello, Hiei, what are you doing here this early?" Genkai asked.
"Is Botan up?" Hiei asked.
"Not yet," Genkai said. "Help your self to some tea and wait for her, she should be up soon."
"Hn," Hiei found a cup and poured himself some tea.
Botan woke up to hear two people talking out side her room. She got dressed and walked out to find Genkai and Hiei sitting on the couch.
"Hello Hiei, what brings you here?" Botan asked.
"I need to talk to you," Hiei said and stood up. He knew that Botan was scared but ignored it.
"Okay," Botan said and they walked to her room. Botan sat down and Hiei sat next to her.
"Botan, did you know you talk in your sleep?" Hiei asked.
"No," Botan said. "What did I say?"
"May things," Hiei smiled. "Do you really like me?"
"Um... what?" Botan started to get nervous. "Why would you ask?"
"You said you did, last night after..." Hiei stopped.
"After what?" Botan asked.
"After I kissed you," Hiei looked away from Botan.
"There's nothing to be ashamed of," Botan said.
"But how, how could this happen?! I made sure I had no feelings for any one!" Hiei pounded his fist in to the mattress.
"So you're saying you don't want feelings for me?" Botan asked.
"Yes," Hiei said. (0.0 Song heard in back round: It's the end of the world, by: R.E.M.0.0)
"Alright, I can see that," Botan stood up and walked out of the temple. 'The one time I let my guard down I fall in love! All men are a like! Selfish and only care for them selves. I knew this would happen. I promised myself I wouldn't let a man over come me again. It's happened to many times!' Botan walked into the woods.
"Botan, Botan, Botan," I said above her. "No man has over come you; you just led your self to think that, because every man has walked out on you, same here, but I know they treated me equal."
"Rikku! What are you doing here?" Botan asked and climbed the tree I was sitting in. "I told you not to read my mind."
"I had to know why you stormed out of Genkai's," I said. "I felt really bad for scratching Kurama, so I was on my way to apologize."
"What happened there?" Botan asked.
"We'll talk about that after we get finished with you," Rikku said. "Okay, I know what was said and I know how each other feels, soooooooo, He doesn't want to love because he knows something bad will happen to you if he commits to it. You just wouldn't let him finish, you're the one being selfish right now."
"You're not helping," Botan said.
"Yes I am," I said. "Okay, well, I take it you... well of course you do so I'll skip that. You love him Botan and he loves you, you need to let go and not hold your self back just because what happened before you died and became a ferry girl."
"What if I can't?" Botan asked.
"Okay, I'm sorry I can't see into the future, that's Lee Lee's job, you know that," I told her.
"Yes sorry," Botan said and I patted Botan's back.
"You should go talk to him, forget about Shiery, he was old news anyways," I said. "Just out of curiosity, did you keep the ring?"
"No," Botan said.
"That was a nice ring if I say so myself," I said. "Oh, sorry!"
"That's alright," Botan said. "Tell me, what did you do to Kurama?"
"Oh, after you went home after the movies I went to see Kurama and I fell asleep in his bed. I had a dream were he was cheating on me and he was trying to wake me up I slapped him, but when I slapped him I scratched his cheek," I told her.
"That's got to hurt," Botan said.
"Ya," I said. "There he is, go," I pushed Botan out of the tree and Botan landed on Hiei's back. "Oops." Botan got off of Hiei and looked at me.
"You'll pay for that!" Botan shouted as Hiei got up.
"I said I was sorry," I said.
"No you're not," Botan said.
"So!" I smiled in defeat.
"I'm going to get you back!" Botan said as I disappeared.
'Botan, talk to Hiei and stop threatening me!' I said telepathically.
'Um...Okay,' Botan said back. "I'm sorry, Hiei."
"Why? I should be," Hiei said.
"No, I know why you didn't want feelings for anyone and I'm sorry, I should have listened," Botan sat down and Hiei sat next to her.
"I was just worried," Hiei said.
"Hiei..." Botan started.
"No, don't. I will be worried for who I want to," Hiei said.
"I just don't see why me, Botan looked at the ground.
"Botan, there are many things about you I want to know but you need to tell me, do you regret ever liking me?" Hiei asked and genteelly held her face in his hands,
"No," Botan said. Hiei leaned closer to her and she looked at him and leaned closer also. They had a split second when there lips touched where the three worlds didn't matter to them.
Kurama sat on his porch with me, Yusuke and Keiko. "You know Yukina's coming in three day's and the concerts in four," Yusuke said.
"You guys are so lucky, I'd kill to go to that concert," I said. "You guys only got the tickets because Koenma like's Botan."
"What?" Kurama asked.
"Oops," I said.
"You're kidding right?" Yusuke said.
"Why would Koenma like Botan?" Keiko asked and slipped her arm in Yusuke's and leaned on his shoulder (l _ l how sweet!!!@!! l _ l)
"I don't know," I said and than a huge smirk came on my face. "Would you guys like to know what happened at his office last night?"
"Tell away," Yusuke said.
"Last night Botan confessed that she liked a special person and of course it wasn't Koenma, but He got pissed and threw his remote at the TV and it broke. So he had the repair guy come and fix it but they couldn't fix the sound, so it's always mute," I laughed. "I bet he's spazzing out right now because they're together, thanks to me, otherwise Botan would have been pissed off at him for ever, for what he said to her."
"Who is it?" Keiko asked.
"One very special boy," Kurama said for her.
"In deed," I said.
"Is it Hiei?" Yusuke asked.
"Is he special?" I asked.
"No, not really," Yusuke said. "Well, it can't be Kuwabara."
"I always thought that Hiei and Botan should hook up. I guess that will never happen," Keiko said with her eyes closed. "You know if Botan doesn't like Hiei, why is she spending so much time with him lately?"
"No one else to hang out with," I said. "Let's go see Shizuru, she just got off work."
"How do you know?" Keiko asked and opened her eyes and I pointed to my head.
"I can read minds with out the Jagan, its fun," I said. "I just have to close my eyes and think about the person and I see them in my eye lids and hear everything from the voices around them to the smallest voice in there head. But I can't take over people like Hiei can."
"What am I thinking?" Keiko asked and I closed my eyes.
"Do you really want me to say it?" I said and opened my eyes. "I know Yusuke might want to hear it."
"Okay, that's enough proof," Keiko blushed a little. "Let's go see Shizuru now."
"No need," I said. "She's here."
"What where?" Yusuke asked.
"Behind you," Kurama said.
"Hey," Shizuru sat down next to Keiko. "My baby brother has been cleaning the house since I felt for work at six this morning."
"Sad," I said.
"Ya, he tried to lock me out but with that thick skull he forgot I had a key," Shizuru said.
"Ya, so...Oh snap! I... um... got to go," I stood up and looked down the road than back at the others who had confused faces. "You'll see in a minute. Bye." There was a black smoke where I had been standing and now was gone. (O.O Rikku/Me has an oar too, but the smoke is faster to get away from places O.O)
"What was that about?" Yusuke asked.
"I don't know," Kurama said.
"She's very confusing," Shizuru said as Botan ran into view with an angry face.
"Hey, Botan, what's the matter?" Yusuke asked.
"Where's Rikku?" Botan asked.
"She just left," Kurama said.
"Did she apologize?" Botan asked and Kurama nodded.
"She told me the whole story too," Kurama said.
"The dream?" Botan's mouth dropped open.
"Yes, it was strange, but I would have got mad too," Kurama laughed silently. Botan sat down next to Kurama.
'Botan, I'm sorry,' I said telepathically and Botan closed her eyes. 'Um... well, Koenma wanted me to ask you if you wanted to do something with him tonight or tomorrow. But I told him you'd say no, but nooooooooooooo he wouldn't listen. So he made me ask. My advice is for you to find a date both nights quickly, because if you don't you will be seeing him at Genkai's tonight at seven sharp.'
'I'm sorry I have a date with Hiei tonight and I'll have to check my schedule but I think I'm booked the whole vacation,' Botan said telepathically.
'Good, I'll see you later,' I said than was not there any longer.
"Botan are you okay?" Yusuke asked as Botan's eyes shot open.
"Yes, yes I'm quiet fine," Botan said. "I think I'll even go for a walk, through the park."
"You do that," Yusuke said, having no idea what she meant, but Kurama was trying to hold in a laugh.
"Isn't it a bit obvious?" Kurama asked and Botan shook her head.
