Long time no update. XD Ehh… well, I'll get on with the story… (mutters under breath). Oh, and I know that you know who the Anonymous Stalker is. I still wanna pretend like you don't though, so bear with me.
Chapter Twenty-One: STOP STALKING ME!
Normal POV, continuation from last chapter…
"I dated her, because she accepted and loved me. And I her."
Okay… that did not make sense. Hiei glared. "You just said—"
Miroku grinned. "Not in that way. We dated each other because… well, we could. We don't really love each other in the love-love way. It's more like… on-off. And we only really did it for the fun we had teasing each other to death. Although, it was me doing the 'teasing' and her doing the slapping."
Ugh… too much information. Well, not really. But the thought of Miroku groping Sango's you-know-what's when she was plainly like a sister to him… wrong. Just wrong. Hiei grimaced. "Shut your mouth. And keep it shut. We're almost there anyway…"
Then he looked forward. At Shuuichi, who was unusually quiet. "What are you thinking about, Shuuichi?"
"Hiei? It's… nothing."
Hiei's eyes were narrowed. He growled, "Liar," but didn't press on the matter. Your eyes have always held the depths of your thoughts, to me, whether you like it or not… you're thinking of Inuyasha and Kagome, aren't you, Shuuichi? Try to deny it, but Miroku and my conversation has bothered you, bothered you very much…you're wondering how much they care for each other… idiot.
Kagome loves you. It's obvious. And you're blind, a blind fool.
Thinking about Sango, Hiei smirked, musing, And so am I…
Anonymous POV
I walk along the sidewalk, following him home… he is so beautiful… he is so intelligent… he is so kind to everyone… save for me. I mean, what was so creepy about me trailing his footsteps, sending him my love through the internet, and quoting from things I hear him say in his own house? He told me more than once to go away. Ahhh… denial. He knows that I'm irresistible. And yet, he plays hard-to-get… Oh, my Kurama… that sexy little /bleeeep/…
Lately, he's been acting strangely. He's much more foul-mouthed, foul-tempered, but his body… his beautiful face… they remain un-tampered with. I could almost feel our hands touching, our mouths…
"YOU. You again. What are you doing in my back yard? Are you a friend of Shuuichi's?"
I didn't like that name. Shuuichi. It was… commonplace. Not nearly elegant enough for my little darling. Kurama suited him so much better. Kurama, as in the Youko Kurama of legend, that stealthy, elegant silver-haired kitsune fox demon… I snapped out of my thinking to see her, that bitch. My Kurama's aging mother. Always interfering… with our love… I mean, does it matter that I am a man, and Kurama is a man also?
"I, uh, it's… nothing, Mrs. Minamino. I… I'm an admirer from… school. Admire as in… I mean, I love your garden."
"Really? Shuuichi helped grow it. Why don't you come in?"
"No thanks, Mrs. Minamino, another time. I… I have to go, really."
I walked away from that obstacle in my path…… I shall stalk you another time, beloved fox… you shall stop your game soon enough.
Inuyasha's POVDAMN IT! I was bored. Bored to death. I didn't have anything to do… I couldn't do anything… I wanna see Kagome /subconscious self talking, ignore it/…wait… should I… /She's on that field trip, give it a rest! /subconscious self talking again, doubly ignore it/ gods no… not that… was this how low I would sink to get rid of my boredom? Apparently, yes.
"Hey, Mrs. Mi— I mean, Mother, can I buy groceries for you?"
"Really? But you just got back from your walk before, Shuuichi… I would hate to bother you…"
That so? Then why are you shoving money into my hands, and why are you getting out that horrendously long list of things that you "need?"
"You must be back to normal then. I was wondering about you, but it turns out that it was just a phase…"
WHAT? You mean that goody-two-shoed bastard willingly went out and ran errands for this little, horrible woman? Okay, she was okay, but I wasn't feeling to kindly towards her for the two months ground. I just realized then that she was talking. Reading off the list, actually. "Okay, we need milk, eggs, bread, noodles, cream, coffee……."
I caught a few words, but mostly zoned out. That was… until I took a closer look at the list. Uh huh… wait, why do you need a razor? I skimmed down for interesting words. Okaaay… and what about that? Pause. Or THAT!! Shuuichi's mom had weird things… I gasped at a particularly offending female necessity for males to shop for. Wait, and Shuuichi does this regularly!
"Uhh… yeah, I got that, Mother."
Anything to get away from this place. As I walked out, I breathed a sigh of relief. But not for long…
I hadn't walked ten yards before I got that feeling again. That feeling that eyes were on me. That someone was following me. YourStalker91356… could it be? I kept walking. And walking. Until I heard a voice, when I was nearly at the market…
"Kurama… you're here…"
It was a deep, unctuous sort of whisper, the kind that a desperate person tried to give in hopes of being seductive. In other words, it sounded horribly… I don't know! Disgusting. Hoarse, soft, etc, etc. Not at all what I'd be seduced by… really. And there it was again! I though I was "Shuuichi," not "Kurama!"
"My lovely fox… that hag drove us away, but now, you and I can be together."
I now turned around, half amused (it was a male voice after all), half creeped out. Big time. And I saw his face. And hissed. "Karasu!"
"Indeed, Kurama. I like you… and whatever I like, I like to take… to claim as my own…"
I knew him. He had serious issues. Seriously. Not only because he openly admitted his homosexuality (why the hell was I thinking of all sophisticated words and shit, like Minamino himself?), but he was prone to stalking people. Just his murderer's glint and his stealthy, noiseless costume told me that. And Kurama, AKA Shuuichi AKA me for the moment, just happened to be his greatest love slash victim!
There was only one thing to do. I ran, almost screaming from how freaking creepy this guy was in the flesh. I guess I should've expected Shuuichi to have "fans" but this totally was pushing the limit!

Minu-sama: Okay, that was short, and I'm not too proud of it, but it was a chapter at least, so review:3
