Chapter 13
Heartache
Yusuke couldn't breath. A strong and hard body was pressed against him mercilessly, restraining any movement at all. It really didn't help that this stranger's mouth was doing such wonderful things everywhere. It all started with a kiss, a heated battle of two tongues that lasted for a long time. Then the stranger began working on other parts of Yusuke's body, traveling from his face down towards the neck and now, licking his navel. Somehow, Yusuke had lost his shirt in the middle of it all.
Narako wanted to hear the sweet boy moan and scream his name. He wanted Yusuke to look at him with lust in his eyes, and know that Narako will be the only one touching him, that he belonged to Narako and no one else. The silver haired demon never liked to share. Dipping his tongue lower, Narako smiled to himself as he heard a sharp gasp from the human.
"N-Narako…please…" Yusuke couldn't seem to focus his sentences, especially since Narako was nudging a growing bulge underneath Yusuke's pants.
Narako was very happy. He had the boy begging for more, and soon, he would claim the dark-haired beauty beneath him. Marking the flawless skin with his teeth, Narako kept on nibbling on the soft flesh. His hands had moved on to more interesting places, caressing the boy's erection.
Yusuke's eyes were closed, trying to concentrate on how he wanted Narako to stop. But what the mind wants, the body ignores. He was with Kurama, what was he thinking, doing this with a complete stranger? "Please…stop, Narako." Yusuke could barely whisper out the words.
Narako lifted his head in slight astonishment. That was not what he was expecting. "But Yusuke, we've only just begun."
"I-I can't do this. I don't even know you!" Yusuke struggled to push the elegant man off of him. If he had waited another minute, Yusuke was sure that he wasn't going to be able to stop Narako from sleeping with him. The man was just too damn sexy and charming for his own good.
"We can get to know each other," Narako leaned above Yusuke, and planted an innocent kiss, a peck really, upon the boy's lips.
"We can't. I can't do that to Kurama." Yusuke had temporarily forgotten that Kurama had cheated on him.
"But after what he had done to you, why should you stay with him? He's an unfaithful man, hurting you like that. I would never ever cheat on such an exquisite nymph like you."
Yusuke frowned at the nickname. "He…there must be an explanation. Kurama won't do this to me without a good reason." He didn't know what to think anymore. Did Kurama really love him, or did the fox demon only wanted sex?
"Don't try to lie to yourself. What he did to you is inexcusable." Narako sounded angry.
'Is Narako mad at Kurama for sleeping with Hiei? But…why would he care so much?' Yusuke was beginning to doubt Kurama's love for him. 'Kurama, do you love me, or did you just use me for sex? Oh, why does it hurt so much?' Yusuke felt droplets of tears roll down his cheeks. 'Where did they come from?' Wiping he wetness from his own face, Yusuke was surprised when more tears came. He couldn't stop them.
Violet eyes softened in concern. Narako gently wrapped his arms around the sobbing boy, comforting and soothing him. Yusuke let himself be held, his face buried in the demon's shoulder. Narako didn't push Yusuke any further than he wanted to go. This was not the time. He'll wait until Yusuke trusted him, and loved him. It was always more pleasurable to see them break.
*Koenma's Office*
"This is a big problem." Koenma placed a hand on his chin. Kurama and Hiei had come to him for help locating their favorite spirit detective. The two looked like they've seen better days, both having dark circles under their eyes, and troubled looks on their faces.
"We've searched everywhere, even to places we didn't even know existed, but Yusuke is still nowhere to be found." Kurama was nervously fidgeting his fingers, and tapping his foot. "I don't even sense his energy anywhere! Koenma, he must be in danger. Maybe he got kidnapped like last time."
"Calm down, Kurama. Really, I've never seen you like this before. Is there something going on between you and Yusuke?" Koenma was worried about the red-haired boy.
"Koenma, we think Yusuke is in the demon world. That's why we can't locate him here. There is no other explanation. Can you search for him there? I know you have spies." Hiei spoke up.
"Hmm… I could tell them to keep a lookout for Yusuke, but that's about all that I can do." Koenma tapped at his communicator. "Hey! Does Yusuke have his communicator with him? If he does, we can message him, see where he is."
"Well, he kind of left it at my place." Kurama mentally hit himself for letting Yusuke leave it there.
"Kurama, don't blame yourself. We all know that Yusuke is great at getting himself into trouble, but don't forget that he can get himself out of it as well. He isn't exactly helpless." Koenma said. "He can do miraculous things at the most unexpected times. Fate is on his side."
"Koenma is right. You have to rest. Staying up nights is not good for your complexion," Hiei faced Kurama. He could see the strain Yusuke had put the fox demon through. Hiei never thought Kurama cared so deeply for the human boy. He always thought that he was the only one Kurama cared for. But Hiei couldn't be mad at Yusuke for taking Kurama's heart. The boy was so innocent. However, Hiei couldn't stop the jealous stabs at his own heart. 'Would he care for me this much if I was the one missing? Hn. Probably not.'
Stealing a longing glance at Kurama, Hiei set his face into an emotionless mask. It was no use showing his feelings to the world. Hiei kept telling himself that last night was nothing, that it was lust that drove him to Kurama's bed. Looking into those emerald eyes, Hiei felt like crying. God, who is he lying to? He loved Kurama more than anything in the world. 'Kurama, don't you know that you're breaking my heart?'
"All you can do now is wait. I've already informed my spies to report to me when they see anyone that resembles Yusuke. Go get some sleep, both of you." Koenma yawned as he pushed the two out of his office. "I need a nap too," he mumbled to himself.
They walked back to Kurama's house in silence. Hiei stole small glances at the taller boy, hoping that Kurama would look back and tell Hiei that he loved him too. But the entire time, Kurama had his eyes on the ground.
The house was empty and dark, just like Kurama's mood. Kurama glanced up to look at Hiei for the first time since they left Koenma's office. He felt guilty for ignoring the smaller demon, but things were just so confusing. He couldn't break Yusuke's heart, and yet, he couldn't leave Hiei either. 'So it is possible to love two people at the same time. I want them both, but how can I have them?'
"Kurama. I should go." Hiei turned to leave.
Quickly seizing Hiei's arm, Kurama pulled him into an embrace. "Please stay."
Hiei was silent, shocked as he rested his cheek against Kurama's chest, listening to his heartbeat. "Why, Kurama."
"Because, I need you here with me." Kurama held Hiei tight, not willing to let go. He couldn't afford to lose them both; it would kill him. 'When had love turned so cruel and painful?'
"Hai, I'll stay then," Hiei mumbled into Kurama's clothes, 'For your sake, I'll stay.'
^_^ I hope the next chapter will be up soon, but I just can't seem to find time to write. Finals and all.
