Chapter 13

me: wow, it's been 11 days since i last updated... sorry... Well... I'm not 16 anymore! I turned 17 on Friday, April 8th!

Green Eyes: Wow... -cries- your older then me... but happy b-day!

me: thanx! -smiles-

Green Eyes: your welcome... -goes and starts messing with embers gifts-

me: i've been 17 for a day and it feels no different... welll sorry for taking so long, here's the next chapter! (in the backround Ember is yelling at Green Eyes for gettin into her gifts)

"The hunt begins..." Hiei said to himself as he ran after Botan...

Botan laughed as she heard the heated koorime running after her. The sound of soft running echoing down the narrow corridor towards the pool room as Botan waited in the pool room. Soon the slamming of a door also echoed through out the room as Hiei entered the room, searching for his mate.

"Come out, come out wherever you are!"

"Run, run, run as fast as you can. You can't catch me!" (me: wow stupid phrases) Botan giggled softly as the water around her gently rose and fell, tickling her skin, as Hiei entered the pool. A flash of cerulean hair caught his attention and he immediately went after it. Hiei went around the bend in the pool expecting to find his mate, but came up with only a blue towel.

"Hahaha... poor Hiei." Botan giglled as she stood on the side of the pool, her kimono dripping wet. She untied her obi, letting it fall to the ground and pulled of the outer and under kimonos and let them also fall to the floor. Botan now stood in her undergarments and was looking at Hiei with a serious look on her face.

"Take your wet clothes off before coming in the house! Tootles!" Botan again ran away from the koorime who sat in the water shocked that she had willingly stripped in front of him. But soon he too was out of the pool, and stripping for a non-exsistent audience. He now stood on the pool deck in his boxers and then dashed out the doors behind his mate.

with Botan-

Botan was trying to find a good place to hide, one in which it didn't matter that she was in wet undergarments. She looked under the bed... there was carpet. -Can't get the carpet wet How bout the bathroom... hmmm.- Botan stood with a thoughtful look on her face, trying to find a hiding spot apparently wasn't easy. So she just removed the wet garments, disposing them in a hamper in her room. She then took a sheet, wrapped it around herself and hid in the closest.

with Hiei-

This 'Botan hunting' was getting fun. Hiei could smell her from where he stood at the bottom of the stairs. She was hiding in her(soon to be 'their' room)room in the closest. He took another sniff and discovered that she no longer smelled of the chlorined pool water but of the 'mountain fresh' detergent used to wash the laundery.A frown replaced his smile, she had changed into dry clothes. Fourteen steps and a stretch of hallway later, Hei stood outside the door wondering if he should enter or not.

with Botan-

What is taking him so long?- Botan thought to herself before exiting the closest and moving towards the door. Shallow breathing could be heard on the other side of the door. -What is Hiei waiting for?-

"Hiei?" Botan asked unsure of what he was doing. She opened the door to reveal to the slightly shorter demon outside her door that only a sheet kept him from looking at her body. Hiei found himself smirking before advancing on the ferry onna, cornering her against the bed.

"Your mine, Botan."

me: I don't write lemons... would you like to write the lemon, nandi?

Nandi: Lemons are yucky. -rinkles nose in disgust- They're too sour for me.

me: okay... so there won't be any lemons unless someone is willing to send me one through the email.If there is more then one... I don't know what i'll do... Byes!

Review Responses

Robin Autumn: Thank you so much .! I'm going to go read your stories after i'm done putting this chapter up. I like Green Eyes(Green Eyes and Red Hair)'s story May it be mainly b/c of the HB pairing (which i'm a proud addict of) and the song she chose for the story. Thanks again!

Hies's Ice Maiden: I'll probably make Hiei more possessive as I go along, but this is only thebeginning of 'Adopting Minerva'. I plan on making this just mainly how Hiei and Botan get together through the adoption of Minerva, then the sequel will be on the war in the future which will probably still be focused on H/B and maybe Minerva/ oc. Thanks for reviewing!

sadandlonely: Thanks for your review and all in caps, lol.

Raver: Thank you so much for adding your info. so that I may have at least one person who is a not a yyh character in the story. I'll disclaim your character when I get to the wedding which should be in a couple of chapters. Thank you again!
