Fuh, I managed to get my lazy self up and typed this into the comp...you don't know what a chore this is...and Microsoft word is not helping! and worst of all, I'm having my physics test tomorrow and I'm guarenteed to fail. What a depressing thought...
Sigh, anyhow, take note that the next chapter will be the last one. So give me all your support, ok? I need it a lot! and reviews really make me update faster! also, if you don't, I'll kill Kurama-kun off! I'm serious!
Words of A Broken Core
Chapter 10: I Realised
Hiei POV
That stupid fox! He must have run off to do something equally stupid!
Always letting those emotions carry him away!
-If he dies, he will return to Makai, though.-
Hah, maybe it's just as well. He should have done that long ago. But when he returns to Makai, he would forget us all, go back to his thieving, traitorous ways. He would forget me…
"Hiei, what is love?"
"Why ask me? You already know."
"I don't. do you?"
"Isn't that what you feel for your ningen mother?" I snarled.
He continued in a thoughtful tone.
"Is that love, Hiei?"
"How would I know? You feel it, not me…ask yourself," I grumbled, unable to stay mad at him for long.
"I don't know, Hiei. I really don't. is that what you call love? The fear of discovery, the fear of losing her, the lying…" he trailed off.
"She cried, Hiei, when my human father died. At least she called it crying. She said, she felt sad, and those tears are because she had lost someone dear to her. Tears…"
"Hn." I was at a loss of what to say, stepping unknowingly into dangerous grounds.
"Have you ever cried for Yukina?" His tone was pure curiousity, innocent even.
"Why should I? She's alive and well."
He was persistent. "Would you, if she were to…?"
"I would not continue that question if I were you, Kurama." I interrupted angrily, in a soft voice, and regretted the harsh tone when a look of pure hurt shone in his eyes.
Pride would not let me apologise. I left without a single word.
Impatient, I pulled away the warded headband of my Jagan. It searched hungrily and almost immediately pinpointed Kurama's location.
'I love him…he'll never love me back…Hiei hates me as he should…'
What….hate? I sure as hell don't hate him! I never said that!
- But you never said otherwise either. Your demeanour gave the impression that you do.-
I … wait; he is switching to his true form! At the edge of a cliff. He can't be…
"Kurama! Don't do it!" I yelled, as all three of us reached to where he was. His face was downcast; I thought that I could perceive tears.
"Kurama!" Yuusuke and Kuwabara yelled futilely. Can't they see that he's too deep into his own turmoil to hear them?
"What is love, Hiei?"
Love is…
He looked up, and I almost lost his whisper, if not for the wind that blew his confession to me. Then he took a step forward. And time stopped.
Everything clicked into place.
Kurama, don't do it! You can't! you can't, because…
I just can't go on without you…
Oh, gods!
I love you!
well, there goes. Be sure to review alright! of i'll make good my threat!
Oh, and one more thing. You guys should really watch Fullmetal Alchemist! It's awesome! And sad...
well, that's all for today and for this chapter! please review or you know what will happen!(evil grin)
