Koei: Okay! Yet another chappie, and I'm still stranded in China. At least I got Naruto VCDs! Yay for Naruto!

AnimeholicsInc - Well it has to take place after the Sensui case if Yusuke's demon blood is activated, though I haven't seen it yet, and er... I think I'll put it after that, though it would be better if it were a little AU

Tearful Joy - Thanks for the description of fluff

Ice-neko-girl - Thank you for the description

(...Me annoying the hell out of you...)

' ...Kurama ...'

/...Youko .../

Disclaimer - I don't own Inuyasha or Yu Yu hakusho, otherwise this wouldn't be called a fanfic, so don't sue me!

Black Blood Rose: Embarrassment

Raising an eyebrow, Kurama hid his shock from the girl in front, namely a Higurashi, Kagome.

'Higurashi... but mother said the Higurashi's daughter is constantly getting ill or having some sort of problem.'

OoOoOoOoOoO

Kagome was poking at the bandages wrapped around her waist interestedly, her shirt caked in a light layer of blood.

'I wonder how he wrapped the wound. I hope he didn't do anything perverted, or ask about the wound. And how did I get here anyways?' She glanced up, finally taking in his appearance. His red hair flowed down to his shoulder blades, a raspberry color school uniform continued, and his emerald color eyes a contrast to his hair. He seemed to be polite, but that didn't stop Kagome from having suspicions about him. 'I trusted to much, and it didn't get me anywhere.' She felt pangs of hurt riding throughout her heart, refusing to let tears surface she started to distract herself with the bandages again.

OoOoOoOoOoO

'But no one could gain so many sicknesses, they would probably have died by now. Besides, she doesn't look ill at all. I wonder what she does to get so ill, perhaps it was to cover up something… No illness that I know of can inflict those types of wounds, it looks like it was made by something sharp. Claws perhaps?' Kurama pondered.

/I must agree, and you know, this girl doesn't look half bad./ Kurama's emerald colored eyes closed for a second before he sighed in irritation, feeling a headache coming on.

'Youko, not right now. Must you intrude every time a pretty girl shows?' He was certain the spirit fox was smirking.

/So does this mean you're agreeing with me? But how could you not? She's prettier then most girls that flock around you. She's already on the bed, all we need to do is -/ A temple seemed to throb on the usually calm Kurama.

'Youko!' He cuts off, still irritated at the fox's words. A collection of images corroded his mind, and each one following the next grew more... 'interesting'. A slender hand waved in front of his face (the bed's 2 feet away), pulling him back into his room.

"Shuiichi?" Kagome raised an eyebrow, brushing back some stray strands of her raven colored hair. "You've been staring at the ground, and then you started twitching, you alright?" A faint pink dusted his cheeks, barely visible.

"I apologize Kagome, I must have started dozing off." She raised an another eyebrow at his reply, but didn't say anything else.

'Youko, you have a sick imagination.'

OoOoOoOoOoO

Her legs were getting numb as the blood circulation was cut off when she sat on them in a kneeling position. Placing herself at the end of the bed, she winced slightly as blood flaked off her shins and knees, glancing down to the sheets she saw more of the dark crimson on the used to be clean and white bed. She felt small amounts of guilt nipping at her emotions, she'd have to repay him somehow. Sighing she stood up, or at least tried, her muscles protested from the amount of running they were forced to do and the wounds inflicted upon her body. Stumbling forward her instincts took over and she grabbed the closest thing to her to stop herself from falling. The thing was Kurama.

"S - sorry Shuiichi, I tripped and I guess - I landed on you." She mumbled in embarrassment from the crook of his neck. Why was the scent of roses so strong?

Kurama was just staring ahead, paralyzed as another wave of images made an appearance. Ones so... 'interesting' that the authoress would have to up the rating if she described them. Several moments later they ended, leaving a very embarrassed Kurama in its wake. 'That. Was. Obscene.' He was sure he heard snickering. Kagome was now near the door, inching away. 'It seems she's almost healed, her wound isn't giving her much trouble. Another mystery about her. I'll have to report her to Koenma, especially about her sudden appearance.'

"I guess I'll be going now, and don't be surprised if I come back, I do need to repay you, so expect me sometime next week." She tried to smile, failing she turned and walked halfway out the open doorway.

"Wait! You can't go walking about like that, have you seen the condition of your clothes?" She blushed slightly, turning and walking back in.

"I forgot about that..."

"I can lend you my mothers, my clothes are to large for you." Kagome nodded, she had to look up slightly to talk to him. A few minutes later he came back handing her a pale blue button up shirt and a dark blue skirt that would reach her shin. Exiting the room again, Kurama closed to door behind him so she could change, feeling Youko's disappointment. After she finished, she also exited the room, strolling down the hall into a cozy living room.

"Well thank you, Shuiichi, I guess I owe you one, again." She smiled slightly before heading for the front door. 'He seems kind, maybe I can trust him a little.'

Next chappie finished! Oh, and sorry if Youko or Kurama was ooc, I've never seen Youko's personality. R&R!

The Votes for Pairings so Far:

Hiei/Kag: 3

Kur/Kag: 3

Shizuru/Hiei: 1

I have no idea of how to put the vote count, because people keep picking kur/kag and hiei/kag in one review, I'm so confused.
