Chapter 4
A month after the news about Kurama and Columbia being twins, everyone had basically welcomed Columbia into the group with open arms, especially Hiei.
With Hiei, Columbia felt an odd comfort, besides the fact that he was always there. So the one day Hiei was there and Kurama wasn't, he was way too overproctective, Columbia decided to ask Hiei why he was always by her.
"Hiei, why are you always here?"
"Because I can be."
"No, well I know that, but why are you always here by me?"
"Hn."
"Ya know, saying 'hn' all the time will get you no where."
"Am I supposed to be intimidated?"
Columbia mumbled to herself.
"What?"
"I thought you liked me."
Hiei quickly looked away.
"Ah-ha, I knew it."
Hiei turned back and his eyes seems out there or not there in a sense, even though it was a dead stare at Columbia.
Before Columbia could think Hiei pinned her down on the couch and without hesitation, he kissed her hard.
'I knew it.'
They continued to kiss till Hiei's kisses began to travel down Columbia's neck, until he reached the base of her neck. He then started to lick a part of her neck, then just when Columbia was calm, she felt a pinch on the right side of her neck.
Hiei began to pierce the skin with his fangs. The room began to flow with his energy and once he knew it was enough, he stopped and gently licked the blood off.
"You didn't scream."
"I don't scream, I suck it up."
"That's good, I didn't want to have wasted my mark on a weakling."
"Is that what you did, mark me?"
Hiei nodded slowly while watching as Columbia grabbed the right side of her neck and looked at her hand to see that the mark was barely bleeding. She felt Hiei gingerly touch the wound.
"You might want to bandage that and cover it up so Kurama doesn't kill us both."
Columbia slowly go up to go up stairs, but she stopped at the stairs and looked back at Hiei.
"What are you exactly?"
"A demon, so is Kurama."
"Yeah, me too."
Then she headed upstairs.
'Yeah, me too, she couldn't be demon and if she is, she hides it well.'
Upstairs Columbia examined the bite mark. It wasn't bleeding or throbbing anymore, but it was still red.
She heard the door open and shut downstairs, so she ran into her room and got the widest chocker, she quickly put it on so it would cover up the mark.
As Columbia went downstairs, she saw Kurama yelling at Hiei.
"How come I come home I smell blood, I didn't smell it before I left."
"I started my period, that's the blood smell."
Kurama looked up at his sister with a non-believing look, but the truth is, she seriously did start.
"Seriously, wanna see for yourself."
"No thanks, that's okay."
Kurama got up and left, so Columbiasat down by Hiei and put her head on his shoulder...KAWAII.
"Bastard."
"Hn."
The next day at school, Columbia kept getting bugged about her choker 'cause she never wore one that big before.
In study hall, the choker started to irratate Columbia's neck, so not thinking she took it off.
"Looks like someone got frisky with a demon."
Columbia quickly turns her head to the right, but turns back due to the pain of the bite.
"Shut up Botan, it's not that big a deal."
"Why Yukina, I didn't know you got mad like that."
"Everyone gets mad Botan."
"You too Keiko?"
"Is this thing just bleeding or is it just red?"
The girls looked at Columbia's neck.
"Just red."
"Thanks Yukina."
The teacher noticed that they were talking and made Keiko and Botan go back to their seats. Even after getting yelled at, Columbia and Yukina continued to talk.
"So who was it, anyone I know?"
"Yep, it was Hiei."
"HIEI!"
Yukina quickly put her hands over her mouth, but Keiko and Botan had heard and were now giving Columbia a shocked look.
"Now I'll be hearing about this from the guys later on and Kurama, oh-no, Kurama. You two better keep your mouths shut."
"SHH!"
Columbia and Yukina went back to their conversation.
"Hiei, of all people, do you even like him."
"Actually, I do, but I don't know what's wrong with that."
"Nothing's wrong with that, it's just that no one would suspect Hiei liking someone."
"Oh, I get it now."
"So how was it."
"It hurt, barely, but it still hurt."
The bell rang signaling the end of class. Yukina and Columbia ran out the door before Keiko and Botan could bug them anymore, so they went to their usual spot on the bleachers out side of the schoo for lunch. You see, over the first month of Columbia living with her real mother and Kurama, she and Yukina had become really good friends.
Columbia remembered that the whole group had the dame lunch and just thinking of the possibility of Botan and Keiko telling the guys made her panic.
"What if they tell everyone?"
"So what if they do, we can take the squealers."
"That's why I like you, so quiet around everyone else, ya come by me and you're psycho Yukina."
"Ooh, I've got a title."
"Watch it."
"See, piss you off and you go all psycho."
"Watch your mouth missy."
"You're not my mom, and even if you were I wouldn't listen to you."
They glanced at each other and started laughing.
"Hey."
They both looked up and came face to face with the group.
'Uh-oh, we're dead, or I am anyway. Yukina, should we run.'
'Maybe, you wanna.'
'Yeah.'
They started to make a run for it, but as they made it to the bottom, Hiei grabbed both of them by the waste.
"Columbia, someone told us to tell you what the musical is this year."
Columbia looked up a Hiei.
"Well, what is it?"
"The Rocky Horror Picture Show, whatever that is."
Columbia screamed so loud, that it could have broken glass.
Okay, I think I'll leave it at that. That honestly took for ever to write, and it my have killed me. I would have typed this out yesterday, but I couldn't. One, because I live in Illinois and we had those really bad storms with the hail and everyone kept tell me to get off 'cause I'd get electricuted(sp?) and because my middle finger on my left hand got burned while I was making my supper last night, so it hurt too much to type. Talk about fun. Oh and some random kid off the street came into my school and pulled the fire alarm during 5B lunch so we were all pissed off. More fun.
Oh, and today in P.E. I got attacked by, well to be honest, velcrow, so I have this huge scratch on my leg that hurts like hell, but I'll live with, sigh, war wounds of rat tails(a form of tag), so high school is evil and painful, just so ya know.
I'll try and get chapter 5 up by the end of this weekend, if I can and if this weird sorethoat and headache doesn't turn into anything stupid and retarded 'cause I can't afford to miss anymore school or forget about this.
