Chapter four: Tantalizing Heat...
Vanilla and Blueberry's...
Botan!
It was her! He knew it had to be her. It was the Deity of Death... Crimson eyes narrowed thoughtfully, he flicked his gaze about the giant club.
Then he saw her...Form garbed in dark denim jeans, coat gone.
Showing her white turtle neck sweater. Her hair was tied up too. "Wow Dude! Do you see that hot chick over there?"
Slurred a drunken man, who took the liberty to sling his arm about Hiei's shoulders.
Feeling his privacy violated, plus he'd already been agitated; the Fire Demon turned slightly. Lifting his thumb and forefinger together, until his fingers snapped apart hitting the man's forehead.
Immediately his body crashing into the wall.
"Hn. Pathetic human." Whispered the Demon harshly, he stalked towards the exit being his true and first decision, he had to leave before she saw him.
He was ready to face her... why he wasn't to sure. Just as he was walking through the crowd a fast beating rhythm began, which immediately caused for movement.
He growled low in his throat in irritation, he was being pushed and shoved! Suddenly some idiotic person lost there footing and rammed into his back, creating a domino effect, except the person he bumped into was lucky he was a Demon.
For if he'd been one of those "creatures" he would surely crush this girl to the ground.
A girl?
Wait.
Looking down he found what he'd hope, he'd never find.
Botan.
Damn!
Damn those humans to hell!
She however kept repeating several apologies like it had been her fault. He snorted mentally, she was always like that, "damn woman". "Hn." It had left his mouth before he could stop himself; he cursed inwardly.
Damn.
Botan looked up she'd bumped into someone on accident and felt terrible, but the person he wasn't saying anything.
She tried to peer up at his face, but he was wearing a long black duster which presented a hood. "Hn." That! What? She blinked, only one person had ever spoken that to her! Could it be "him"? "Excuse... excuse me?"
Her voice began to tremble lightly, she absentmindedly clutched onto his jacket. Hiei hissed quietly and answered in a soft voice. "I'm sorry."
She felt a warm blush splash her cheeks, no it wasn't him. Hiei would never apologize like that. "Hey either dance or get out a da way!"
Growled another drunken man, he was swinging his girlfriend around like a rag-doll. Botan huffed, how dare he! Hiei just sent the man his most chilling glare.
Sadly it didn't work for no one could see his face, the man shoved them together so that their bodies were pressed firmly against one another.
Hiei was boiling mad! But he couldn't do a single thing about it. Botan felt that if she didn't dance; she and the nice... well the guy next to her would be pulverized, putting her hands around his covered neck a sudden shiver swept throughout her body.
He seemed familiar... he in a way reminded her of Hiei, remembering her manners she spoke. "I'm sorry. I was worried a fight would break out... so I... please don't be angry at me."
She pleaded, the Fire Demon had the urge to roll his eyes; it wasn't going to be a fight that would break, it would be the mans bones... then he'd melt them with his flames. "It's alright."
She blushed scarlet, swaying her hips to the up beat tempo; following suite the Demon did the same. Secretly he indulged in her sweet scent: Vanilla and Blueberry's...
They began to move more intricately to the music. Almost in a waltz. Some how, she felt...like it was supposed to be. Not out of place or coincidence. This was somehow "right", it felt good.
But... she thought, whoever he was, he'd definitely had to do something athletic, what with the way he moved so poised and graceful. His body was firm; and supporting her must've been easy enough.
But... there was something so...so... she just couldn't put her finger on it... Something about him...
The spotlights flicked from one couple to the other, its blinding essence becoming a heat source, the music picked up speed tenfold, leaving some couples panting for breath.
Hiei twisted the young blue haired woman in his arms circling her about, only to catch her hard with his iron fingers, sliding them up and down her sides.
Botan shivered, he was very-very talented with his hands. Hiei had lost all reasonable thought, all he could do was dance.
It was the same for Botan as well, she forgot about everything, all her troubles and worries in the dance. It was hypnotic and entrancing, watching as the trench coat clad man danced.
She so wished to see his eyes, maybe... maybe hoping to find crimson. Their bodies glistened with sheens of sweat. It felt as if they'd been dancing fo hours. Well they probably had...
Their feet moved unknowingly, it was like they were floating. How could this guy, that she'd never met before make her feel this way?
How...? When he went to move his hands up and down her sides in a soothing manner... he accidently pushed up her turtle neck sweater up a bit, revealing her creamy white skin of her torso.
She gasped as his fingers made contact to her burning flesh, this touch... she'd been touched like this once before.
A name. It couldn't stop. It wouldn't stop. As this one name bubble on her full ripe lips, whispered so softly that even a caress would be envious.
"Hiei..."
She was so much in a daze that she hadn't seen his body go rigid, he felt his heart thump against his rib cage thunderously, and surprisingly his bones didn't break because of it.
Hot.
Burning.
Tantalizing.
Innocent.
Black.
Crimson.
Blue.
Amethyst.
Heat.
Want.
Longing.
Yes... that's what he wanted, blood was pumping in and out of his veins with a vengeance, adrenaline thrumming.
Breathe.
Faster.
They danced like in a fevered frenzy.
It was beautiful. It was amazing. How...? How...? After so many hours. They could still dance with vigilance and grace. With pride and beauty. With all their hearts and soul.
It made everyone else stop, to watch such a magnificent spectacle. Two people so... not even words could describe them...
Eventually many of the remaining people went back to dance with their partners. Hiei's head hurt very badly.
He wanted... what... he knew, yet he didn't know... confusion... She was so beautiful, so gorgeous, picturesque.
Waves of azure spilling about her shoulders, cheeks and neck flushed, lips full and taunting, eyes innocent and amethyst.
Was this... was this love?
That human emotion that he'd once thought pathetic?
Doubt.
He still couldn't help but doubt, to feel uncertain.
He felt his body moving with his minds consent. For he moved them through the crowd, still dancing, until he'd backed her up against the wall far away from everyone else.
Botan hit the wall softly, her body stuck between it and "him". This man she's only known for a few hours.
Why wasn't she afraid? Why wasn't she protesting? Why wasn't she ashamed that she was being held by another man?
Because... maybe... maybe she knew it was "him", maybe she knew it was him deep inside her soul and heart.
The towering figure bent lower, brushing his fingers against her cheek, slightly running them through her silky rivulets of hair.
She blushed, eyes sparkling... and those lips. God those lips! Indulging himself, he ran his thumb over her lower lip.
Then brought his head down to the crook of her neck, he inhaled deeply. He shivered, "Vanilla and Blueberry's..." He mumbled in a drunken state.
Even though he wasn't really drunk.
Botan looked up in wonderment, wondering if she'd heard right. "What?" A chuckle low and rumbling, like the soft booming of thunder on a rainy afternoon.
"Your scent... you smell of Vanilla and Blueberry's." She could feel her cheeks warming in a brilliant flush.
Another chuckle, then he grasped her chin with his thumb and forefinger. Slowly leaning down. Botan's heart raced madly, she gasped at the light brush of his warm lips enveloping hers.
The soft smooth texture... her head was swimming in a heady desire to look at his eyes, his face, to see who this man was.
Then as soon as it had happened, it faded away. Faded away to nothingness. Yet... It was still there.
He pulled away, and... he... his hood... it was slightly slid back.
Revealing.
Revealing flaming crimson orbs, soft tendrils of pure black. A breathless whisper filled with wonderment, filled with excitement, just...filled.
"Hiei..."
He let go immediately and pulled back, running through the dissipating crowd and disappearing once again.
Botan slid to the ground, knees given out, body pushed to its limits. She timidly and shyly brought her lips towards her mouth.
Probing her lips in a gentle touch. They were still warm and hot, slightly swollen. She sighed inaudibly.
Her eyes heavy and half-lidded, she slowly stood, shaking herself out of that mental shock. It had been him. He'd... He'd actually kissed her...
Snapping out of her daze the Deity dashed to the exit, forgetting her coat in the process. She burst out onto the sidewalk, looking left then right.
She stopped.
He wasn't here...
Looking down at the soggy concrete she began her way down the street, body forgetting about the cold completely. All she could think about was him, and their encounter.
It was quite humorous to tell the truth. "I can't believe it." She spoke to herself quietly, moving to a hidden sidewalk, Botan stepped into a clearing.
The ocean... The sun was just about to rise. She took off her shoes, and relished in the feeling of the cool sand surrounding her feet.
The waves crashed against the shore then retreated to its depths. The sun began to peak from the horizon, bathing the land in an ethereal glow.
Making Botan look like the angel that she was. The smell of the seawater was refreshing compared to that stuffy club.
But nothing could ever compare or rival the certain smell that was Hiei Jaganshi.
"Exotic spices and Cinnamon..."
She giggled gleefully, she'd just gotten her first kiss! And by "him" no less! It was just to funny! "Hiei! You jerk!" She cried in fits of heartfelt laughter.
She felt as if she could float among the clouds without sing her oar. Her body, soul, heart, and mind, felt light as a feather.
She felt free and giddy. A wistful sigh escaped her no longer virgin lips. "I think I've just fallen in love with you all over again Hiei..." She smiled stepping into the cold water.
It may have been winter and the water may have been cold. But she'd never felt as warm and hot like this before.
She laid herself down, and yelped as the a rushing wave came to the shore and surrounded her in its essence.
She was in love and it was great! Soon, very soon, she'd get him to understand... to understand that it was okay to love, it was okay to feel, and it was okay to be cared for.
She'd show him, she'd made a vow. It would not break. Nope. No matter what... She get that stubborn Fire Demon in her arms.
And she'd kiss him senseless!!
