How It All Began
THEY FIND OUT
(Kurama's POV)
I awake the next morning around 8 o'clock. It is strangely silent downstairs. Hiei is still asleep on the futon. He looks like a child – cute and vulnerable – when asleep, but I know otherwise. I walk down the steps and step into the kitchen. There is a note on the table. It reads:
Suiichi {sp?}, I have run out to do some shopping. I'll be back around noon. Love, Mom
I smile. I begin to cook breakfast for myself. I know that Hiei usually eats fruit from the Makai. The pancakes were ready shortly and I ate them with great haste. Hiei is awake now, and he still looks tired. His hair, for some reason, is in perfect condition, and I'm pretty sure he didn't brush it. "Good morning, Hiei." I greet him with a smile. His crimson orbs stare at me for a moment. He replies, "Hn. Morning." The phone rings.
"Minamino residence." I answer.
"Hello, Yusuke....Genkai's? Okay, I'll bring Hiei."
I hung up. I sigh and inform Hiei, "New mission."
(Hiei's POV)
We are now walking to Genkai's temple. We are trudging along in the forest, an awkward silence filling the air. We hurry up the seemingly endless stairs. Of course, I got to the top much faster than Kurama. He seemed a bit out of breath, like me. We didn't need to knock because the door was already open. Yukina greeted us by saying kindly and shyly, "Hello, Kurama. Hello, Hiei." She smiled. I managed a small smile and a "Hello." I always feel a bit uncomfortable around her, and guilty, too. Keeping the fact that we are siblings a secret is hard when you have such a wonderful sister.
We sat down with Yusuke and Kuwabara and Koenma and Botan. Genkai was also in the room, and Yukina was preparing some tea. Koenma cleared his throat. He began to tell us about our next mission.
"There is a deadly water demon. It's an upper A-class and has escaped to the human world. I need YOU to capture it. I don't care if it's dead or alive. It's a MAJOR threat to humanity!" Panic rose in his voice. I snorted at the pathetic toddler. He glared at me, and I glared back. He knew he wouldn't win the "glaring contest" as some stupid authoress like AnimeShadow might call it.
(Kurama's POV)
We were leaving the temple now. Hiei and I left first. We were walking back to my house. Suddenly Hiei pushed me up against a tree.
(Hiei's POV)
I had an irresistible urge to kiss my fox. So I pushed him up against a tree and planted my lips against his. I'm sure he was shocked. I nibbled his bottom lip, requesting that he let me in.
(Kurama's POV)
His tongue explored my mouth. I thought I heard footsteps, but I wasn't sure. All of a sudden, Yusuke and Kuwabara appear with shocked looks on their faces. Hiei stops and turns a shade of red. I was also red. We stare at each other for several minutes, and then Yusuke breaks the silence. "Um...Kurama? Was...Hiei...just kissing you?" I turn an even deeper shade of red. I don't even have to turn to see Hiei doing the same. I nod once. I'm terrible at lying. Okay, that's a lie. I do a pretty good job at keeping my identity a secret from my 'mother.' Yusuke looks at Kuwabara, while Kuwabara said, "I can't believe it..." I expected a bigger reaction. This was not how I planned it at all – first, they weren't even supposed to know! Second, they were taking it calmly.
(Hiei's POV)
I was so angry at myself for letting them sneak up on us like that! It was all I could do to keep from ripping of their heads. It might be better, though. Now they know. Hopefully they'll forget, though I doubt it. I turn. "Let's go, Kurama." It was the only thing I knew to do to escape this humiliation.
