I know I said in the previous chapter I was going to add to that chapter, but I decided not to. Anyway I'm just glad that I got to go on the internet again YAY! I don't know how much I'll update though since I'm at my stepmother's and forgot to bring my stories to type---so everything will be off the top of my head. Anyway, on with the story.
"Fox, quit playing games. I want you now." Hiei mumbled, his piercing red eyes glaring that the roses with a mixture of hate and desire—they reminded him of his Fox whom he loved, but they were now preventing them from finding him. Their scent lulled him close to a state of bliss, almost soothing him to remain among them without worry, but he wanted Kurama too badly to allow their seduction to work.
Hiei…Kurama whispered the word in his mind, longing himself to feel his lover's caresses, and remained achingly still while his heart screamed to end the game—the test he wanted Hiei to take and pass. He wanted, no, craved for Hiei to pass, because then he'd know Hiei did pay attention to him as a person and not just as a sexual object. If Hiei passed then he'd know... Know what? That he loves me? I already know that. Kurama fought again the urge to reveal himself to the fire-demon, though each thought made it harder to hold back—he wanted Hiei as much as Hiei wanted him, but he needed him to…. To what? Pass a test that I know he's not going to try to pass? A test I don't really need him to pass?
Biting his lip, Kurama struggled to remain silent, knowing that any sound would clue the alert fire-demon—that was partly why he desired to make a sound, by accident or on purpose. Though, if it was wanted, would that really make it an accident? Kurama swallowed back a sigh as his vibrant emerald eyes studied the now fidgeting fire-demon; He sensed Hiei's fiery aura building in frustration and saw the tensing of the fire-demon's fist—then the flicker of a black flame surrounding the white bandage around Hiei's forearm.
No, he's going to use that attack? Ur…should've known he'd try the quickest, surest way. Kurama's hair stood on end and his body tensed, not from fear, he'd never fear the fire-demon, but from worry over the flowers, he'd hate to see them destroyed. Still he stood silent, reminding himself he could re-grow them easily afterwards, if he wanted Hiei to pass the test he'd have to endure seeing the vibrant blooms destroyed. At least he's not attacking my favorite plant. He's too preoccupied by the roses.
"Fox." Hiei stood up straighter, but let no other clue slip—he'd sensed movement, though he didn't know from where yet. He looked around with hope akin almost to arrogance filling his body. But that passed when no other hint of the fox-demon's whereabouts revealed itself. Of course he wouldn't make it that easy after going through all this trouble. Hn.
"Damn it, Fox." He growled, his fist clenching tighter, he wanted to blow every obstacle between him and his fox away. "Damn…huh?" A wanton breeze blew pass him, alarming him at its suddenness—and at the gift it brought. Unclenching his fist he caught the gift in his palm, and stared wide-eyed at it.
A single, light pink colored petal lay in his open hand, a petal unlike any of those on the roses—or other ground flowers.
His lips twitched into a smirk as his hand turned into a fist once more, and the black flames grew around his forearm. One quick look in front and to his sides told him what he wanted—and his eyes glimmered with excitement.
Hiei? What's…oh god. Kurama flinched when Hiei turned around and stared at the tree he hid behind—a cherry blossom tree, surrounded by flowers of all sorts of colors. He found me? He really found… "Ah!" He gasped at the black flames surrounding Hiei's fist, which the fire-demon aimed straight at the tree. "No, Hiei!" Kurama jumped out from behind the tree between it and the fire-demon's hand. "Not the cherry blossoms."
"Heh." Hiei smirked and moved his hand away. "Gotcha Fox."
"Hiei?" Kurama studied his lover hesitantly, still blocking the tree warily when Hiei laughed.
"You really thought I'd harm that tree? That tree? Your favorite?"
"My…you mean I….I…." Kurama's dumbfounded expression changed to a chuckle as he realized what had happened. "You weren't going to use your flame on the tree? You fooled me?" He laughed good-naturedly, amused by how his test turned out.
"Hn." Hiei sprang at Kurama, catching the fox-demon off-guard, the force of his jump bringing them against the cherry blossom tree. "Yes, fox, you should know this tree is special." The fire-demon grinned breathing into the fox-demon's ear as he held Kurama's arms at his side.
"Special? Because of me?"
"Because its petals will be our blanket." Hiei purred wickedly into Kurama's ear, pressing against the fox-demon.
"Hiei, you don't mean, here? H…." Kurama fell silent, his words cut off by the fire-demon's sudden kiss.
"That's exactly what I mean."
They both fell into each other's embrace and slid to the ground next to the tree, surrounded by vibrant blooms and the cherry blossoms now freely floating through the air.
