Chapter 13
Relief, Rest, Tricks, and a Kiss?
Hiei heard Botan scream and ran into the room only to match her face with another face twisted in minor horror. The in the center of the room was…one bed…
Hiei and Botan's jaws dropped. "I am not sleeping in the same bed as you!" Botan's voice was dripping with venom. Hiei was plainly pissed that she decided to scare the living hell out of him for a bed!
"Well I'm not sleeping with you! You can have the floor!" Hiei's voice said matching Botan's easily.
"I'm not sleeping on the floor." Botan said in mock astonishment. "YOU ARE!"
"NO! YOU ARE!" This went on for about three years……no more like just five minutes.
Soon Botan was out of breath and her throat hurt, unlike Hiei, who's throat was the only thing that hurt, he was smirking triumphantly down at her.
"FINE! You have the damn bed and I'll take the couch!" With that Botan stalked out of the room and plopped down on the couch. "But I'm never forgiving you!" With that said, she picked up one of Hiei's shoes and when he was turned around, threw it and hit him in the back of the head.
Hiei felt dizzy for a minute the grabbed the shoe and whipped his head around. "Onna!" He snapped.
"WHAT!" Botan was currently on the couch turned around looking over its back…for something…
Hiei smirked. "You threw this at my head." He started rather calmly.
"Well I'm sure whatever it is, I didn't throw anything. I was looking for the spoon to my ice cream the whole time." Botan said as a matter-of-factly not turning around.
Hiei looked down at the table in front of the couch and saw the ice cream bowl. He sweat dropped. The spoon was still in the bowl. He turned back to Botan's form. His smirk grew wider.
Botan was still acting like she was looking for the 'spoon'. He moved his arm up and threw the shoe. Then with his speed turned and ran into the bathroom, locking the door. Actually for the better good…he sweat dropped again…he might want to sleep in the bathroom tonight…
Botan's head snapped up as she was hit in the butt with, she turned around, a shoe! She growled.
"HIEI!" She ran into the bedroom and looked around. "Oh Hiei." She said sweetly. "Where are you." Hiei winced in the bathroom and her gaze snapped like a hawk.
She smirked the all-famous Hiei smirk. She looked around the room again for something. She found something she was looking for, now…just one more thing. She went into the kitchen and looked in the fridge, and 'aha'd' when she found what she was looking for.
Then she went to the bedroom to set her trap. When she was finished, she went to the living room and sat on the couch to watch TV and watch her plan in action.
oOo
A creak could be heard in the bedroom to the left. Where the bathroom stood, as Hiei Jaganshi, on the run from a very enraged Deity, poked his head out of the door.
He looked side to side, and to his relief…no deity. He opened the door all the way, not expecting a bucket to fall right on top of his head. He stood motionless, his anger rising.
He took the bucket off of his head and stormed into the living room where Botan was. What she saw made her burst into laughter. ANOTHER shower...
Hiei was covered in green glue and his 'Defy-the-laws-of-gravity' hair was, for once, matted down. He did not look like Hiei. "I liked my hair onna!" Hiei was ready to pounce. Botan didn't stop laughing.
"SO!" She was laughing even harder now. He pounced and landed on her stomach, knocking the wind out of her. Then within seconds Hiei was stark dry again, his hair bouncing back into place.
"Who's laughing now onna!" Hiei smirked as a flicker of fear ran across her eyes. He didn't know what possessed him to do, but he did.
He leaned down and kissed her full on the lips. Botan was shocked at first, but after a minute she responded with a moan and leaning into the kiss. He got off of her and stood bringing her with him when they parted. He lifted her off her feet and carried her to the balcony.
He sat on the bench outside and placed Botan in his lap. "Onna…there's something I…need to tell you."
