An: Ok, here is the next chapter, sorry it is so short., but do not fear! The next chapter should be out soon. You know how I said that my favorite chapter was the 14th one? Well I lied, it is really the 15th one. Anyways, if you thought I was evil before, wait till the end of this one.
P.S. Sorry if my spelling is horrible, the major stuff gets fixed by my word processor and I just don't see the small stuff. Its like my brain just jumps to the right word. Eventually once I finish the series and start to write the sequel (Which I am totally excited about. It will indeed rule.) I am going to edit everything.
Memories of Him seemed to haunt her dreams.
Does it mean anything? Who knows.
Does she want them to stop? Yes and no.
Yes: They hurt. She can't see him, smell him, or touch him anymore.
No: He hurt her. He left her hard edged and broken.
So she must become content in dreaming.
For he wont come back.
Or so she thinks.

Kohana was yet again amazed when she walked into the mall. She had only been there once before and it still took her breath away. She had a feeling it always would.
"Ok. The first thing we have to do is buy Kohana some good clothes." Boton said and started to look for a good clothing store.
"What's wrong with what I am wearing?" Boton looked at Kohana's clothing and then to Keiko and Shizuru.
"Well, it's a kimono." Kohana looked at her oddly.
"I have always worn kimonos." Suki sighed and Boton glared at her.
"Well, kimonos are now considered more formal. You need something more casual." Keiko said and pointed to what she was wearing. - A blue top, white vest and blue jeans- Kohana raised her eyebrow
"Fine, whatever." She said and Yukina smiled.
"Don't worry. Its more comfortable then it looks." Kohana nodded her head and started to zone out. She was of course thinking about the dream she had. It wasn't as clear as her other dreams, but it meant more to her.
It was more simple when she was younger. Once she turned 12 everything became worse. The only thing that made sense to her then was Ryoichi. 'But he left Kohana. He didn't come back, and he wont try to find you know. Do you even really want to see him again? He will change everything. Besides, you have all these people now.' She thought and watched Yukina talk to Boton.
No matter how hard she tried to be happy, she still felt like something was missing. 'Yes, I do want to see him again. Even if everything changes. She thought as Boton listed off more things they were going to do.
"… then we all have to go to Victoria's secret and get her some decent underwear." She said and Yusuke grinned perverted manner, which caused him to be smacked by his girlfriend/ Kurama looked at Boton with wide surprised eyes.
"Why don't you girls take her and Yusuke, Kuwabara, Hiei and I will go and wait at the food court for you." He said but secretly he wanted to go. No one need to know that though. Kohana looked at them sadly.
'Why can't I be carefree? Even though I am free, I still feel trapped.' She thought and Hiei looked at her. He had been obviously been listening to her thoughts. 'That's because you are trapped. You dwell to much on your past.' He said and Kohana glared at him.
"And you don't? Try taking your own advice before you give it away Hiei." She said out loud, causing everyone to stare at her. She covered her mouth in shock.
"I am so sorry Hiei! I didn't mean for it to sound so nasty. I really am.. Sorry." She said lamely and Hiei just stared at her. Her eyes darted all over the place, trying to avoid his gaze. Her eyes feel on a guy in the crowd staring directly at her.
The moment their eyes met, her heart started to race. It was different then when she makes eye contact with Kurama. When it is Kurama, she feels dizzy and naked. Lately it made her want to grab his face and.. Well, she wasn't quite sure what she wanted to do. But with this guy, she felt angry and sad. Above all, she felt like she was 5 years old again.
"Ryoichi." She whispered. Yes, the boy, No. The man from her constant dreams had officially crossed over from her past, to her future. And there was nothing Kohana could do to stop it.
