KillersXinXIce- Hey, Kitty! Cool new name. I'm really glad you like it so far! Here's the next chapter for you!

This chapter is to Incomplete by the Backstreet Boys (I know it's lame…but the song goes pretty well with this story/chapter I think). If you pay attention to the lyrics and the goings on of the chapter at the same time, you'll probably notice that the song POV goes back and forth between the thoughts of Hiei and Kurama, even though the story is in Kurama's POV.

Anyway, enough of my rambling. Enjoy!

…………………

Empty spaces fill me up with holes

When I awoke the next morning, he had already gone. I angrily muttered curses at myself as I showered and dressed. Why could I never resist him?

Distant faces with no place left to go

School was chaos. Everyone seemed to be vying for my attention even more than usual.

Without you within me...I can't find no rest

Twenty-nine girls and eleven boys confessed their undying love for me, seventeen teachers begged me to help them with their lesson plans, fifty-one angry parents formed a petition against me (which did not sit well with the fifty-seven people mentioned above and created a riot in the front entryway), and one punk attempted to, in his words, bash my pretty little princess face until I resembled a garbage disposal.

Where I'm going is anybody's guess

Obviously, I breathed a sigh of relief as the last bell sounded.

&&&&&

I tried to go on like I never knew you

On the way home, I noticed a black figure flitting silently through the trees above me. Hiei. Gritting my teeth, I ignored him and continued home. I didn't have time for him right now.

I'm awake, but my world is half asleep

I stopped in front of my house and paused to take out my key, intending on getting inside before he reached me.

I pray for this heart to be unbroken

Suddenly, a pair of arms wrapped themselves around my body. Too late.

But without you all I'm going to be is incomplete

"You seem stressed. What's troubling you, kitsune?" he asked, moving his hands up to my shoulders and gently beginning to rub them. I unwillingly responded by closing my eyes and leaning back into him. Yet another mistake among many I had made.

Voices tell me I should carry on

I instantly found his lips beneath my jawline, his arms wrapped firmly around me.

But I am swimming in an ocean all alone

"Were those pitiful ningens bothering you?" he growled into my ear, and followed the question by softly nibbling my skin.

Baby, my baby...it's written on your face

I shook my head and attempted to pull away. "Hiei, please...not here..."

He held me tight. "Why do you resist me, Kurama?"

You still wonder if we made a big mistake

"I just...I can't, Hiei. Not now. I have schoolwork..."

"Forget your ningen schoolwork. It's not like you require those pitiful courses."

"I'm expected to be responsible..."

I tried to go on like I never knew you

I was cut off as he spun me around and pressed his lips to mine.

As he broke it off, he breathed, "No one is perfect, kitsune. You of all people should know that."

I'm awake, but my world is half asleep

My eyes widened in shock at his statement. Never before had he said that sort of thing to me. Did he know...?

I pray for this heart to be unbroken

I yanked away from him and slid my key into the door lock. "You have my answer, Hiei. Another time, perhaps. Not now."

He raised a suspicious eyebrow at me, his facial expression almost a look of sadness. "As you wish, fox. I'll return tomorrow...don't disappoint me again."

But without you all I'm going to be is incomplete

This last statement was not a command...but a request. I had downright rejected him, something I had never done. Before I would always decline with a laugh or smile. Before I would eventually give in and put off my work for an hour or two. Never had he left with a door shut in his face.

&&&&&

I don't mean to drag it on

I found I couldn't concentrate on my studies. I stared aimlessly at my books, pen in hand, not managing to write more than a word every twenty minutes.

But I can't seem to let you go

Finally I gave up and threw myself onto my bed, hoping some rest would cure me. Still, every time I closed my eyes I saw Hiei.

I don't wanna make you face this world alone

Once sitting just there, on the windowsill, like he would do so often.

Once in my arms, gracing my skin with his soft touch.

I wanna let you go alone

And once...once with a knife through his back. A knife I myself had thrown mentally every day since the end of the Dark Tournament. A knife made of my love, not for him...but for another.

I tried to go on like I never knew you

I couldn't take it anymore. I had to tell him.

I'm awake, but my world is half asleep

But the chances had come and gone like wind through the trees. Each time I tried, each time I failed. He intoxicated me so, drew me in so that I was helpless to deny him.

I pray for this heart to be unbroken

The clock struck five, jolting me out of my thoughts. Remembering the meeting scheduled, I slowly picked myself up and changed out of my uniform and into more suitable outdoor clothing. Then I left the house and headed toward the forest, like I did so often recently.

But without you all I'm going to be is incomplete

Little did I know, that night a dark shadow followed my every move.
