Chapter 11 (Don't own yuyu gang.)
I walked in to see everyone a little worried, but as soon as Shadow, Hiei, and Paine saw me their expressions changed to anger. "You're too crazy Phoenix...what in the world did you think when you went out there!" Paine questioned me as I kneeled down in front of the TV not glancing at anyone.
My eyes went to the smooth carpeting, "I was thinking to numb myself...to numb my anger. I didn't think though...I did what I knew was best like I did last night." I said softly just above a whisper.
No one spoke for about ten minutes. It was Thursday...one day till my birthday. "Why are you in demon form?" Paige asked breaking the silence.
"I don't know...but for some reason I can't change back." I stated standing letting the coat fall from my body. The air attacked me and made me a little cold. Ice crystals formed on my skin making me shimmer in a way. "If you don't mind I'm going to..."
"You're not going in where!" I looked at Shadow. "There are things that need to be answered and I guess now is the time!" I looked at him shocked. "You say that people want to own you...where do you get that? Why do you think that?" I rolled my eyes, "I don't have time to answer petty questions like that!" I turned and found Kurama standing there in front of me.
He wrapped a blanket around me, "Those questions aren't petty...I too want to know." I rolled my eyes at this. "The words you say...the meaning of them... you have to think before you speak. People can take certain words the wrong way...maybe I took your meaning behind your choice of words different." He nodded his head understanding. "Now may I go change?" I asked looking away from them.
Kurama allowed me to pass him. I walked into my room once there and grabbed a black shirt and black pants. I was cold, and I needed to keep heat with in my body. But I then remembered it wouldn't take me too long to get too warm. Who would've thought this world sucked! I walked over to my door and shut it. I changed into my clothes, and sat down on my bed. I knew sooner or later I would have to chose a mate, but I just didn't feel ready for it.
There was a knock on my door. "Yes?" I asked looking at the floor. "May I come in?" Just the person I needed to avoid right now, Kurama. "Why?" I asked with a shaky voice. "Because I want to be with you." I sighed, "Okay."
Kurama opened the door, and walked over to me. "I'm sorry that you took what I said the wrong way." I looked into his eyes. "I'm sorry for getting too angry." I said smiling softly. He nodded, and sat down in front of me. "I guess we all make mistakes at times." I give a small giggle, "Of course we do...even the wisest of us all."
My heart raced, and my blood started to boil for the some odd number today. "I wanted to ask you something." I gave a nod. "You said earlier you wanted to get away from me before Hiei got too pissed at you...what did you mean?" I looked away from Kurama to my window.
"Hiei had got pissed at me the other day...because I was in heat, and blah blah blah. Saying that I was torturing you...he was just really pissed. He was saying everything was my fault, and the bad thing is he got me so pissed I gave him a hurt jaw." Kurama rolled his eyes.
"It's not your fault that you were born a girl...don't worry about Hiei. I just wish you..." I looked at him confused as he cut himself off. "What?" I asked him. "I just wish...I told you I loved you...I told you I would like you to be my mate. I wish you would chose." I closed my eyes sighing for a moment. "It's just hard...I not really ready." I looked at him. He seemed sad, but understanding.
"Just tell me do you love me?" I sat up straight as a board with wide eyes. "Kurama...I...I..." MY stammering was cut off as the lights and everything went out. I heard screams down the hall. I couldn't see anything but Kurama's eyes. "Are you okay?" I nodded, "Yeah." I looked to where the door would be as my eyes adjusted to the darkness. I saw a flashlight then Paige and Paine.
"You guys alright?" I nodded shielding my eyes from the flashlight. "Who screamed?" I asked as they lowered the light to the floor. "Keiko, Botan, Yukina, us, and Kuwabara... I have to say I think I went deaf because of him." I snickered at this...and at the face Paine made. "I have to say he does sound like a high pitched cry baby of a girl." I shook my head slowly. "I'm sorry you two had to hear him." They laughed at this, "You can't be serious...it was funny to scare him." I laughed as Kurama joined in.
"He can be quite the cowered." The girls nodded pulling out another flashlight, and throwing it to me. "We wanted to make sure you weren't in the dark." I nodded thanking them as they turned and left us. I turned on the light and looked at Kurama.
He was smiling still. I sighed, and closed my eyes smiling, "I love you Kurama." I opened my eyes to see a wide eyed Kurama. I giggled, and looked up at my ceiling. "He did really bring the crying heavens to me." I whispered to myself. I looked back to Kurama only to have his lips meet mine. I went tense then relaxed into the kiss. What ever I had on my mind before...anything and everything was gone.
He broke the kiss after a little while to let us breathe.It was soon five in the afternoon, and the lights had came back on to much of my disliking. Nothing happened between me and Kurama besides a few kisses here and there. We walked out into the living room to see Kuwabara still freaking out from what had happened. "You're such a baka." I said laughing at him. "Hey!"
"She's right you idiot." Hiei said smirking. I calmed down and took a seat on the couch. Kurama taking a seat next to me. I heard a few giggles come from Paige and Paine. "What?" I asked them. "Oh nothing." Yusuke and Kuwabara soon joined in.
I looked at Kurama who was as clueless as me. Then it started up. "Phoenix and Kurama sitting in a tree. K-I-S-S-I-N-G..." They didn't have time to say the rest because I went after them chasing them down the hallway. Kurama hollered after me, but it was no use. I was too embarrassed to just let this go.
I ended up cornering them. "I thought you said we could lose her this way!" Yusuke yelled at Kuwabara. "Now Phoenix don't do something you might regret one day." I smirked at them nodding. "Okay...the storm maybe going on right now...but as soon as it let's up...let's just say you're really going to hate me. All four of you! I will wake you up at four in the morning and train you till three in the after noon only one break the whole time...lunch...and that will only last thirty minutes." They looked at each other and paled. I then turned content with that for right now, and walked back.
By seven Kurama went to speak with Koenma. When he came back he said we would be leaving to go on our date at eight. It was already seven when he got back to tell me. Okay I have an hour...no rush. Well that's what I thought, but Botan, Paige, and Keiko jumped up and jerked on my arms to get me in my room.
Yukina and Paine soon appeared in my room after we entered. "Have you decided on what you were going to wear?" I shook my head, "I've never been on a date...I don't have to get dressed up do I...Not in those dresses." Botan nodded, "Depends on where you're going...Paine would you see where they're going?" Paine nodded her head, and turned leaving me here.
Five minutes of the girls trying to torture me with make up and me washing my face fifteen times already because of it, Paine came back. She whispered it to Botan who began to sequel after she heard. "Remember it's a secrete." Paine said to Botan. Botan nodded, "Okay you don't have to wear one of these dressy dress, but something a little more street looking." I rolled my eyes, "I still have to wear a blasted dress don't I?" She nodded. I sighed, I hate this already.
The girls made me stay seated on the bed as they went through every one of my drawers. Keiko picked my top, which was a tight clingy white tank top. Botan picked out my skirt, one of the short skirts they picked out for me, black. "You are going to look so cute when we finish with you." I shook my head.
"No I'm not...I'm going to look like a whore." Their happy expressions went to and upset look. "Trust me we're good at this." I shrugged. Well so happens that I got to wear a pair of boots, and they gave me a golden chain necklace to wear. They did every little make up, but still did some. I was mentally cursing their children with so many deformities I couldn't remember what I wished on whom.
Once they were done that let me go look at myself in the mirror. "If I look like a slut off some corner I'll find a way to torture you all!" They nodded, and waited for what I thought as I walked into the bathroom.
The make up was light because of my light skin. It looks pretty good, and the skirt doesn't show much. True the skirt came up to mid thigh after I got it on, and the shirt wasn't all that clingy on me. "It's okay I'll give you that much." I heard some of them sigh.
"But next time...you can use some darker colors for the eye shadow...gray almost blends in with my skin." They smirked at me. "We'll leave your hair down...so I guess you're done. Want to go shock a couple of stupid boys?" I nodded, and walked with them laughing and telling jokes as we walked down the hallways.
When we reached the living room only the idiots were the only ones there. "SO what do you think boys?" Oh yeah leave it to Botan to help them notice the handy work of the girls. The idiots just stared for a couple minutes till I started to growl. It was bad enough I had to be in my demon form, but now it was worse because of this. I heard footsteps behind us so of course I turned around to see who it was.
Kurama stopped with Shadow beside of him a few feet away from up. "Well look who actually got dressed up!" Shadow said smiling. "Don't start...these blasted skirts do any good when trying to fight off a drunk." I stated looking down at it. "And who might the drunk to be fought be?" Shadow asked. "Anywhere out on the streets...but then again there are crazed lunatics out there too." He gave a nod.
"You look nice though." I looked from Shadow to Kurama. "You too." He wasn't wearing anything special. Just a nice looking white shirt with gold seams, and it was black at the collar. The pants were no different, almost same as the shirt. "Shall we go before you hurt someone?" I smiled and nodded, "That would be a good idea." It was eight so the portal appeared so we jumped in to Ningenkai.
We appeared in front of a restaurant that looked pretty good. "Okay...The street café...looks good." I said smirking. "Well I thought with your attitude the way it can get at times...you would fit in just fine here." I grinned, "Or get us thrown out because of a fight."
We walked in and took a seat music blaring I could barely hear myself think. "I thought you would like to come here." Kurama stated when he saw the look on my face. "Well I don't want to be here, but I know a place we could go." He nodded, "Where?" I smirked pulling him back out onto the street. "There's a place not far from here. It's nice but still we would fit in with what we're wearing." He nodded.
When we got there I thought dates were stupid and had no use. I walked in and looked at a waitress who gave me a slight bow of the head. "For once it is a table for two." She said happily. I nodded, and she led us to a table near the window in a corner.
"What would you like to drink?" I looked at Kurama. "I'll just have water." I looked at the waitress. "Sweet tea...thank you." She gave me a weird look but went on her way. I looked at Kurama to see him staring at me. "What?" He shook his head, and looked at a menu. "You should get the spaghetti." I stated calmly looking out the window. "Why do you say that?"
"Because it's one of the few things that are good on that menu." It started to lightly rain here. I hope the guys will watch over the girls. "Are you okay?" I looked at Kurama. "I'm fine." I stated trying to hide that I was worried. "You're not a very good liar." I rolled my eyes, "I kinda figured the other day...but really it's nothing."
He gave me a nod as the waitress came back for our orders sitting our drinks in front of us. "What will it be...the usual Rin?" I nodded, and looked back out the window. "What about you stranger?" I looked back at the waitress. She was bent down low enough to show some cleavage though I don't think any one wanted to see. "I'll have what Phoenix is having." Kurama said blushing slightly. I frowned glaring at the girl. She didn't seem to notice. "Okay...be back."
I growled at who she looked at Kurama. What in the...what is this? Wonderment overwhelmed me. "I hope she dies a slow and painful death." I mumbled. "I wish she would leave us alone." I looked at Kurama who took a sip of his drink. "Well we don't always get our wish, but hopes can always happen with a little nudge in the right direction." Kurama looked at me surprised.
"You won't..." I shook my head, "I won't, but it won't be me who does the nudging. She has already done it herself." I said looking across the room to a filthy looking man. I pointed, "I've noticed the look he gives her when she comes around every time I'm here he is. I know he doesn't follow me...trust me there, but did you not see the look on his face?" Kurama shook his head.
I rolled my eyes, "It was the look of pure lust...nothing more then that." Kurama got the message then. "You have to tell her." I shook my head, "No...People have to fight their own battles." Kurama looked at me. "You sound a lot like Hiei."
I shrugged, "I just know that people have to learn things themselves, and become stronger that way...I was quite the fool when I was younger so I learned that fast." He gave a nod, "We should at least warn her." I looked into his eyes to see concern for a woman he never met before. I sighed, "Fine we shall warn her, but the next step will be hers though." He gave a nod.
The waitress came back, and placed our food in front of us. She went to flirt with Kurama again, but I caught her attention. "Don't you even try it!" I said glaring at her. "Why Rin...you feel nothing anyways remember?" I gave a nod, "But if you try to flirt with my boyfriend I will make sure something happens to you." I said before taking a sip of my drink. "Like what?" I swallowed, and smirked. "Have you ever noticed the feeling of being watched?" She nodded, "Yeah why?"
"Because you are...the man over there the really filthy looking one." She turned and looked at the man. A shiver ran through her, "What about him?"
"You notice the look he's giving you, the up down and all around type deal...he lusts after you. I would watch what you do, or he might not contain himself one day." She looked at me and paled in the face. "How can you tell all this?" I grinned looking at Kurama. "Just say I'm very observant." She nodded, "Thank you." She then turned and walked away.
"You scared her." Kurama stated. "Yes well it got through to her...fear is something most people understand." I stated.
Well by ten the date had went well but we had to head back. We took a small walk in a park, and for some reason Kurama chased me once. All around the park we had ran, but he soon caught me (I let him!). We talked and got to know each other even better. A portal appeared in an ally. But I saw something that I had wished to happen to the girl going on. She was just then being cornered.
"Let's help her." I shook my head, and pushed Kurama into the portal, "I'll help her." I mumbled, and walked over to the guy. I tapped him on the shoulder. He turned to see me, and got a scared look on his face. "I think you are trying to hurt a friend." He turned to me acting all big and bad. "To whores for one." I glared at him, and kicked him in the stomach sending him into a wall. "Who are you calling a whore?" I asked him growling.
I looked over at the girl. "Are you okay?" She nodded, "Thank you." She then paled, and I felt a sharp pain in my stomach. Oh yeah a knife! I kicked the guy back, and pulled the knife out of my back. A small dagger. "GO call the police!" I screamed at the girl.
She nodded, and ran. I was glad to be wearing the ring that teleported me places. I figured something might happen. The guy was out cold, and I could already hear people heading this way. So I left, and appeared in the living room at the palace.
Kurama paled at the site of me, Shadow was giving orders for people to follow to try and keep me a live. "Tada." I said before blacking out.
Please review I would like to know what the story could use. Thanks bunches Pixie
