I woke up the next morning, not exactly sure where I was. I looked at my surroundings and found myself to be lying on Kurama's living room couch. Kurama had fallen asleep on top of me, his head on my chest and his arms wrapped around my waist. I sat up slowly, as to not wake him and shifted so his head was in my lap. He looked so peaceful laying there, his eyes shut tight and his mouth open just a little bit.
As I watched him I thought about what he had said the day before. When he told me he loved me.why didn't I tell him how I felt? Am I scared? Am I afraid to admit that I have feelings and emotions even to the people I am closest to? Sighing I looked back down on Kurama but now he stared back up at me, a light blush across his cheeks.
"I'm sorry Hiei I must have fallen asleep." He said with a kind smile as he sat up and yawned. His hair was a mess hanging around his shoulders but even then he looked ok. His green eyes were bright yet behind the kindness there lay a deep pain.
"Hiei is something wrong? You're staring at me." His gentle voice awoke me from my thoughts as I shook my head and scowled.
"It's nothing you need to concern yourself with fox." I said, getting up off his couch and stretching. "Don't you have to go to the school thing today?"
"Well no Hiei, I don't go to school on Saturdays." He answered simply, standing up. Walking into the next room he called, "Would you like something to eat?"
I followed him into the kitchen and look up into his eyes. "No I'm going out. Don't expect me back anytime soon." I said while I turned and walked out the door. As soon as I was out of sight from his house I broke into a blind run. I had just realized what I had seen in his eyes. I had seen pain that came from the very depths of his kitsune heart. Pain that I had caused him. Pain that I wanted to make him forget.
I stopped running then and looked back towards his house. Maybe I could make him forget his pain. Maybe I could be the one to make him happy. Maybe I could be there for him day and night and make him feel wanted. Sighing, I started to run back toward his house.
*Kurama's POV*
"Don't expect me back anytime soon." With those words Hiei walked out the back door. I sighed heavy heartedly and walked upstairs to my room. Sitting down on my desk I looked at the three pictures of the people closest to me. The first picture was taken of my mother when I was only seven in human form. She was watching me play in the park and her mouth was wide with laughter.
The second picture was of my step-brother. It was his most recent school picture and he looked absolutely miserable. His face had a fake smile stamped on it when his eyes were saying "I want out of this place."
The final picture was a picture Koenma had taken of Yusuke, Botan, Keiko, Kuwabara, Hiei and I. Hiei wasn't meant to be in the picture but at the last second I had pulled him in. His fiery eyes stared up at me with curiosity and confusion. Looking closer at the picture I noticed he looked hurt. Had he been angry that I had pulled him into the picture?
Shaking my head I cleared my thoughts. "I might as well clean up the house before mother gets home." I spoke out loud, making a list of things I had to do before my mother arrived.
*hiei's pov*
I ran up to his front door and grasped the handle. I was about to let myself in when I started to think. Maybe I wasn't doing the right thing. Maybe Kurama had changed his mind and doesn't love me anymore. "Oh well I had come back, I might as well go through with it," I thought to myself. Sighing, I pushed open the front door and entered the house.
"Kurama I need to speak with you!" I yelled, hoping the fox had heard.
"Yes Hiei?" He answered right behind me. His hair was still messy but it was pulled back into a long tail.
"Umm.well.about what you said yesterday in the alley."
His eyes flashed when I mentioned it. I guess I had hurt him more then I thought. "Hiei think nothing of it. Forget I even said it. I just hope it won't ruin our friendship." He said this sadly yet simply. It was as though he wanted to forget he said it too.
"No it's not that it's just.well. I lied to you yesterday. I've been lying to you for the past four years." I bit the inside of my lip nervously. I wasn't sure how he would comprehend this.
"Hiei what do you mean you've been lying? What are you talking about?" His eyes shone glossy with tears. He was thinking I had been lying about being his friend. He was scared I was going to leave him forever.
"Kurama.I was lying yesterday when I said I didn't love you. I was lying those four years saying I didn't love you. The truth is that I do." By now I was biting my lip so hard that it was starting to bleed. Kurama just stood there staring wide eyed at me like a little kid who stares at something shiny. Then dropping everything he was holding he hugged me and set his head on my shoulder. At first this really surprised me but then I put my arms around his waist and hugged him back. "Stupid Kitsune."
A/N awww how cute.Yeah I just realized I COULD end my story here.too bad I don't want to!
