Chapter two: Silent Longing...
Hiei's crimson orbs eyed the city wearily, his black duster whipping about in the cold December wind, he stood on one of the tallest trees in the park.
It was night and all the buildings were lit, twinkling like stars in the black expanse of sky.
He sighed, it had been a while since he'd been in the Human Realm. Yet seemed like yesterday all together.
Charcoal locks brushed against his forehead being adorned with a white strip of cloth; covering his Jagan Eye.
The "woman" had his cloak, which he had left behind; with his other belongings.
When he looked off to the left he saw the shimmering movement of the ocean, where as everything to the right was more buildings and houses.
Hiei inhaled the fresh air, it was crisp and it was refreshing. A sudden shiver ran down his spine, goose bumps forming on his arms and neck.
He glanced downward finding a blue and black dot. His keen eyes narrowed when his vision zoomed to the figure, he felt a breathless gasp bubble forth from his lips.
On the sidewalk was Botan; hair loose and free and she was...she was wearing his old cloak.
His eyes flashed a blackish hue bits of pure liquid scarlet intermingling, for some reason... the fact that she- the woman was wearing his cloak made him... made him feel like he was on fire.
She was wearing something that belonged to "him" with her own will, another shiver erupted. "Hn."
He spoke indifferently, turning to leave, he had to get out of there! For some unknown reason his fingers were sparking, until flames burst forth; licking at the cold air, like a snakes tongue.
Botan walked down the sidewalk holding just one bag, inside was her Maid Of Honor dress.
She sighed softly, her orbs a light pastel hue; hair of silken azure: was being tugged and pulled in all different directions.
She lifted her hand grasping the band, which held the locks up. Yanking slightly, she reveled in the feeling of her soft strands brushing against her flushed cheeks and neck.
"Hiei..." She murmured feeling a sudden shiver run down her spine, for some reason or another her gaze strayed to her left where the city park was.
But her attention was pulled to a tall redwood like tree, but there wasn't anything there. So then why did she get a feeling of being watched?
Shaking her head in disapproval, the Deity looked back in front of herself... when a burning sensation sparked at her fingertips.
She moaned in pain, yet it wasn't completely painful; just very hot. Turning to look at the tree one last time, she went on her way.
Keiko found herself in front of an apartment building, her gaze swept across it until she found what she had been looking for...Botan.
"There you are!" Huffed the cinnamon haired girl, she stomped her foot.
Botan giggled at her friends impatience it was something the Deity assumed came form being around Yusuke to much.
"Sorry Keiko. I accidently slept in this morning." The brunette rolled her eyes, then gave an amused smile.
"Aren't you always sleeping in? Sometimes I wonder who's worse. You or Yusuke?" Botan frowned giving Keiko a glare. "I am under no circumstances like Yusuke!"
Keiko laughed heartily and began to walk off, leaving the Deity behind. "Hey wait for me!" Botan cried out sprinting after Keiko.
Keiko glanced over her shoulder frowning, her eyes hidden by a veil of cinnamon tendrils. Botan was hurt and wouldn't show it, or more to the point.
Refused to let it bring her down, she was something Keiko admired and envied. To have such strength like that, to still move after her heart had been wounded.
But she knew that the Deity was savoring every feeling whether it be painful or blissful. Why? Because it was love... Keiko understood and she also felt the same way.
Yusuke was no easy person to love and he was very stubborn, luckily Keiko matched him there. Today Keiko would tell Yusuke that he needed to find the Fire Demon and bring him back.
Use the wedding as an excuse, for then Botan would show him the meaning of love. "What cha thinking about Keiko?"
Questioned the ever curious Deity of Death, Keiko blinked out of her stupor and turned to face the blue haired girl. "Oh just the wedding!"
She sighed inwardly in relief, the Deity had bought it, had believed she'd been thinking of only that. Keiko didn't approve of lying, but did not think it would be a good idea to rile the girl.
"Hey Keiko look!" Botan squealed excitedly, Keiko looked around and found what the Deity had been swooning over.
"Awe puppy's!" Keiko chirped coming to a petshop window, her jacketed arms supporting her examination.
Inside the window were three little puppy's, one was a Golden Retriever, the other a Boston Terrier, and finally what appeared to be the cutest of them all a small German Shepard.
"I want that one!" Fawned Botan pressing her gloved palm against the thick glass, one little puppy in turn licked the glass.
"Oh you mean the German Shepard?" Inquired Keiko, pointing to the one that kept licking the glass.
Botan nodded vigorously, her eyes sparkling with affection; she so wanted to take it home and strangle it in a big bear hug!
It was just to cute!! A sudden shiver like last night swept throughout her body, this time it was more intense.
Her attention shifted to the park, which just so happened to be across the street from their current position.
Botan couldn't quit place it, but it was like someone was watching her every move and then some.
Keiko snapped out of her reverie at cooing to the puppy's and looked over to Botan. "Hey? You okay?" Botan turned back smiling.
"Yep! Just fine, I think we should leave, before we end up taking one of those puppy's home." Keiko nodded at Botan's words and they both gave one last longing stare to the adorable little Canines.
Hiei frowned darkly; his form lounging against one of the tree's out of sight, he was here in the Human Realm "again".
Like last night. "Hn. Damn emotions." He still was weary and unsure of what he was feeling, for he found himself coming back every few days.
Watching "her". The "damn woman". He eyed her as she swooned over some inferior creature, like it was the best thing in the world.
Yet she seemed to be very much fond of the damned thing.
"Hn."
With that he stood, sprinting off out of sight, but he was one second to late. For a very keen and mischievous fox had saw.
"So Hiei... You've finally returned. It also appears that Botan might not have such a hard time with you after all."
