"This ish the songg that neverr ends! It jush goes ouch!" The detective rubbed his head absent-mindedly as he tried to glare at Kira. Keyword, tried. It's kinda hard to glare at someone when there is three of them all of a sudden.
Kira burst into laughter at the sight of Yusuke trying and failing miserably to focus glaring at her. Serves him right for chugging down so much alcohol.
Shrugging, Yusuke returned to scrubbing the stubborn cream-colored stain from the wall. Damn! Why won't the stain just come off!
Kira wrapped her arms around her stomach as she laughed harder. The other occupants of the house joining in at the sight of the detective scrubbing at the non-existent stain furiously.
"Yusuke, cut it out" Kira rolled her eyes as she stopped the detective from scrubbing a hole in her wall. "There ain't any damn stains there."
Yusuke looked enquiringly at her for a second, shrugged, then started on another non-existent stain.
Kira just sighed then survey her house. Pretty clean, except a few leftover wrappers and splotches here and there which the others were taking care of. Her eyes narrowed at the window, is that a piece of melted cotton candy there!
Kira groaned as she went over to her window, she didn't even know she had cotton candy at her house. Oh well…
"Move"
"Hn"
"Fine, don't move"
Kira reached over Hiei and started scrubbing at the stubborn piece of candy stuck on the window. 'Damn it! Come off!…Stupid candy…' Kira faltered in her scrubbing, a slight red tinted her face. 'Awkward…' As the fire apparition has so politely declined to move, the distance between them is only big enough for an ant to go through.
'Scratch that' Kira thought as Hiei shifted and brushed against her. 'I don't think even a damn ant can squeeze through.'
"Hiei! Move your bloody legs!"
Smirking, Hiei slowly curled up his legs, infuriating Kira. Kira gave a snort and pushed his legs out of the way, climbing on where they initially were and cleaning the top part of her window.
"There" Kira huffed and surveyed her clean window with satisfaction. She turned to jump off the window seat, only to get an express trip down.
"Hiei!" She cursed as she rubbed her sore behind. Kira glared at the smirking apparition who has stretched his legs out again.
Grumbling, she gathered up her cleaning materials and shoved them back into the closet. Everyone else has draped themselves all over the room after the tedious chore of cleaning Kira's living room. Kira grinned at the tired figures in her living room, her grin drop slightly when she saw the clock.
"Holy shit. It's 12:45 p.m already, I'm sure some of you has school tomorrow, including me, don't you guys need to go home?" As if on cue, the phone started ringing and everyone stared warily at it.
"Hello?" Kira muttered down the phone cautiously, then winced as Shizuru started yelling down the phone. She rolled her eyes, placed the phone on the table, stared at it for ten seconds, then picked up the phone again.
"He's coming back. Bye!" Kira grinned as put down the phone and turned her eyes to Kuwabara. "Out. I'm not interested in getting murdered by Shizuru"
"Goodbye Yukina! Fear not! I will be back!" Yusuke rolled his eyes at Kuwabara's act, slapped him on the head, then proceed to drag him out, waving goodbye to everyone.
"We have to go too. Back to training" Touya stood up calmly and dragged Chuu out of the house, who was waving like a madman to everyone.
"Wait for us!" Jin quickly abandoned his position from the floor where he had chosen as a place to rest. He flew hurriedly after the two of them, yelling goodbye as he went.
"Bye Kiki!"
"Bye Jinnn!"
"Bye crazy lady!"
"Bye brat"
Kira grinned as the door shut, then look at the remaining occupants of the house. She groaned as the phone rang again.
"I'm not getting it"
Kurama rolled his eyes and picked up the phone. He calmly listened to it and replied occasionally with a few "yes". Replacing the phone back, he turned to Keiko.
"That was your dad, he wants you back in five minutes. Why don't I go with you? I have to be back as well" Receiving a nod of assent, the fox and Keiko left, rather hurriedly in fact, to avoid the wrath of their parents.
"I'll send you back Yukina! Hop on!"
"…I really really hope Botan has improved her skills on driving on that…thing." Kira muttered as she stared out at the rapidly disappearing oar with two girls on it. Yawning, she closed the door, then turned to glance wistfully at the last occupant.
"Hiei…Are you afraid of being seen with me?"
Hiei blinked. "What…"
"It's just…you never act the same to me. Alone or with the others. With the others, it almost looks like you don't give a damn about me, but when we are alone…
"Hn. What do you want me to do then? Be like that idiot in front of Yukina?"
Kira gave a short laugh before slumping down on the couch. "No…I…damn, I don't know. It just looks like you're afraid of the others knowing."
Hiei rolled his eyes then pushed Kira over to make space for himself on the couch. He then pulled the half-asleep girl up by her shoulders and stared at her sleepy eyes.
"Look, it doesn't matters whether the others know or not." Giving a small, exasperated sigh as Kira's eyelids droop and she fought to stay awake, Hiei shifted her so that she is leaning with her back against him.
"As long as I know, and you know…"
"Yay school!"
"More of that bastard Katashi!"
"More of Keiko's nagging!"
The three figures dropped their 'happy' poses then continued their way up to class, with a half-amused fire apparition and a girl glaring at her boyfriend for the 'nagging' comment behind.
"This sucks, remind me why we can't blow up the school again?" Kira turned hopefully to the guy on her right.
"Koenma will have your ass. After he has mine" The detective reminded Kira, crushing her hopeful dreams of destroying the place of education.
"Damn, oh well, at least it provides some amusement." She held up her hands as she start ticking off things that provides amusement to her at school.
"Annoy the hell out of everyone, especially a fire apparition, and also half the population of girls because they think I'm with Hiei and/or Tori, get Katashi-sensei pissed, and um…I can't think of any more right now."
Kira grinned then glanced at Yusuke. "One very important reason. See Yusuke get owned by Keiko!"
She was rewarded with a very thick science book on the head with the name Urameshi Yusuke.
"Tch" Kira muttered with annoyance and rubbed her head. Upon reaching their class, they proceed to their own seats and get ready for the lesson. In their own unique ways.
Kuwabara dropped into his seat, sighing. Time to see Yusuke and Kira get picked on by Katashi.
Yusuke and Keiko carried out their daily routine. Ogle, get slapped, ouch.
Hiei stared out of the window, another day in this ningen infested place. Joy.
Kira, sleep. Well, she would anyway, if Katashi hasn't approached her the moment he stepped in class.
"Well, look who's back. How are you Miss Lorien?"
Kira blinked at the tall teacher. "Oh boy, u cracked. When are you concerned about my well-being?"
"Don't you use that tone with me Lorien." Holding out his long thin hands, he continued. "Jaganshi had conveniently informed me you're sick. Where is the medical certificate?"
Kira stared at his hand, then grinned mischievously and start tracing the lines in his hand. "Oh my, Katashi-sensei. You have a short life. See this line here on your hand? It means-"
"Kira Lorien! I-"
"Okay okay, relax. You wanted the medical certificate right? Here, let me write you one." Pulling her notepad out of her backpack, she started scribbling furiously.
"Let's see, name, Katashi…um, what's your full name? Never mind. Illness. Diarrhoea, nausea, being an asshole. Um, sorry, that was a slip. Anyway, let's continue. I-"
Katashi gave a snort of annoyance and stomped back to the front of the class. Why was he cursed with a student like Kira?
"Hey! Don't you want your medical certificate!" Kira yelled waving the slip of paper in the air. At this point, half of the class was laughing at the angry teacher while the other half was looking disapprovingly at Kira.
"Lorien! Get out of my class! Detention! Now!"
"Gee, I'm back after such a long time and you're kicking me out again. Whatever." Kira grabbed her backpack and strolled out of the class.
"And make sure you get to the detention room!"
"Bye!"
Slamming the door shut behind her, Kira sighed as she walked slowly down the hallway. Hell would freeze over before she actually went to the detention room. Taking two steps at a time, she climbed up to the roof, throws her backpack carelessly in a corner, and sat against a wall as she stared out beyond the school.
After a few minutes of spacing out, her mind thought back on what happened at Raiko. She had released a massive amount of energy when she killed Raiko. No doubt it will attract more demons to her.
"All because of this…" Kira muttered, staring at the soft pulsing light emitting from her right arm. The soft white light is only as big as a marble. It was located just below her shoulder. Running one finger slightly across the skin, she could feel the slight warmth it was radiating.
'Training at Genkai's?' Kira thought bitterly. She doesn't want to be some powerful freak who saves the world. Sure, she enjoys fighting. But not to the extent where you spend your whole life killing demons who keeps coming after you because of some freaking jewel with unlimited power is sealed in you.
She just wants to be a normal girl. Go to school, have a fun, enjoyable time with normal friends, go home and be welcomed by a warm and caring family. Kira laughed harshly. Ya right. As if. She is 'blessed' with having a family that is six-feet underneath, friends with people who aren't exactly normal and meeting people with abnormal features who just want the something sealed in you. Kira is definitely not your average schoolgirl.
"Ah ha! I knew you were here!" Yusuke exclaimed triumphantly with Kuwabara and Hiei behind him.
"Where's your girlfriend?"
"Keiko's went to the next lesson first. We told her we would catch up…Hey! She's not my girlfriend!"
"Never said she was."
Walking past a fuming Yusuke, she stopped when she sees Kuwabara.
"Erm, what is that funny marking around your neck?"
"Huh? What marking?"
"See! That! There's a funny silver line around your neck and a red spot. You went to get a tattoo?"
"Hey! She's right! There is a marking"
"Really?" The idiot rushed off to the toilet to take a look at his neck.
"Right" Kira muttered. She glanced at Yusuke who shrugged and at Hiei who just gave her an 'hn'.
'Whatever' She thought as she continued walking. "Hurry up detective. I don't want to face your girlfriend's wrath."
"Keiko is not my girlfriend!"
"Onna! Don't add that-" Hiei groaned as a loud explosion. Why? Out of all people he has to be lab partners with Kira.
"Oops…Sorry?" Kira grinned sheepishly as she dusted herself. Glancing at the exasperated fire apparition, she started laughing at his slightly sooty face.
Hiei rolled his eyes then wiped the dust off him. Rubbing a hand across his face, he succeeded in smearing a black streak across his face, causing Kira to laugh even louder.
"Here" Kira took out a piece of tissue and started wiping the streak off. She failed to see the red hue started to show on Hiei's face as she rubbed at the smear.
Hiei blinked and took a step back, causing Kira's crystal blue eyes to flash with hurt. 'Shit, Why did I do that for? She probably thinks I don't want her to touch me…'
Kira sighed softly then pushed the tissue into his hand. "Wipe it off yourself." She turned her back to him and started cleaning up the debris her little mistake caused.
"Guys…I can't get it off!" Kuwabara whined as he entered the sooty lab. His hand rubbing his neck absent-mindedly. His neck was red due to his determination to scrub off the marking.
Yusuke rolled his eyes and walked out of the lab, passing Kuwabara in the process. "Stop being a baby about it." Saying that, he punched him on the head and continued his way out, Keiko trailing behind him.
"Urameshi! Wait up!"
"You coming?" Kira glanced at Hiei behind her.
"Hn" Hiei walked slowly behind Kira and watched as her navy blue ponytail sway gently as she walked. He quickly averts his eyes when he realized he's staring openly at her.
Damn it. Relationships are so confusing. He needs someone who understands relationships to explain things clearly to him.
Hiei hn-ed with amusement. Who else can he ask but the pretty boy?
A/N: Okay, most of you voted for A so I guess that's where the story is heading. People who wanted action/adventure please don't leave yet! I will still have action/adventure but not that much. As in after a couple of chapters, I will have a bit of action/adventure. So don't give up on this fic yet ok? Thanks!
Oh, I need ideas! What questions about relationships,dates etc. can Hiei ask Kurama? And what advice can Kurama give Hiei? If anyone has any ideas please submit to me? Thx ….
