Before You Say No Think Of What You Might Lose
Ch.2 Close Together and Yet So Torn Apart.
It was yet another blissful day hence the sky glimmered with sheer sparkles of white fluffy snow. It
was snowing once again. The girls all lazily rolled around in bed. It was another day just like any
other day. They were on their last five days of vacation right around the corner laid the New Year.
This vacation had all been so much the same and yet so much enthusiasm was placed into everything.
Every day the girls would wake up to find their two naughty best friends sheepishly snooping around
and planning jokes on their best friends. They had always been so close and were used to the routine
although the girls acted as if it was proposterous to find the boys in their homes, even though they'd
wake up knowing the boys are somewhere about mostly always staring at them asleep. –Scratch
that they expected the boys to be there no matter what the circumstances were even if they
had gotten into a fight. Which, they did every day, even the most simplest thing as there
wasn't enough sugar in one of their drinks would erupt into a pile of clatter. Making them all
fight and making the girls become extremely violent and murderous.
The boys tried their best not to get in fights with the girls when they generally had sharp
objects lying nearby. For they knew they would gladly use it on them not thinking twice of the
outcome.
However, this fine morning was not so fine at all, the boys were no where to be found. Keiko was
the first to wake as usual, rubbing the sleep out of her eyes and walking into the bathroom to splash
the cool water onto her face. "Botan." Her voice softly ringed from the bathroom, "Botan come on
wake up." Botan stirred drearily in her sleep. "Here we go again." She sighed miserably and then sat
up on the extremely messy bed. "Someone stole my covers!" Botan screamed exasperated. "No
Botan, its just last night you threw it across the room thinking that it was Hiei trying to eat you or
whatever you were mumbling under your breath." Keiko laughed, walking out of the bathroom and
pointing to the soft blanket that laid messily on the floor.
"Oh." Was all that Botan could say. Tiredly, she stretched, and went to brush her teeth in the
bathroom. Keiko, tired of seeing the cover on the floor, picked it up and placed it neatly over
Botan's matress. Today, was going to be a laid back day, Keiko did not even bother to change out
of her PJ's instead she wrapped a warm robe around her and stepped her way steadily to the exit of
their room. "Botan, mom went out of town today, how about we stay home today? I'll get some hot
cocoa ready and cook up some breakfast." Keiko said but in a way she asked it as if asking if Botan
approved of her choice of actions. "Sounds like a plan to me I'll meet you downstairs." Keiko heard
a muffled sound say, which was none other than Botan that currently had a foam of toothpaste
spread across her face and even smeared on her left cheek.
Keiko giggled at this, "Alright Botan whenever you're ready." Keiko crept her way down the stairs
carrying extreme caution. The boys always loved to be hidden in the shadows and then attack them.
To Keiko's surprise no attack had come, she silently made her way to the kitchen analyzing if
everything was in place. To her dismay everything was in perfect order nothing of the least out of
ordinary. She then realized the entire stir of emptiness and silence that then lingered within their home
without the boys. "Somethings wrong." Was all Keiko could whisper.
After about five minutes she heard a crack on the stairs, and instantly she turned around carrying the
words, "I knew it!" "Knew what?" Botan asked as she sat sprawled across the floor as if she had
fallen down the stairs. "Oh its just you." Keiko said staring down at the floor. Botan, not liking the
dissapointment in Keiko's voice asked, "What do you mean "Oh its just you", who did you think it
was?" Then it hit her. "You mean they're not here?" She suddenly asked. "Yes, I guess so, but why
are we getting so worked up over this, it's not that big of a surprise. Maybe today they're busy or
sick, it's not like they have to be here. Plus, half of the time we curse at them maybe they got tired of
it and decided to stop coming over." Keiko said but felt the pain in her heart when she had said all
those words and hoped they were all but the least not true.
"But, they always are here. Whats stupid is we finally got what we wanted and now we so
desperately want to hear from them." Botan sighed. "Should we go check up on them?" Keiko
asked. "No way we don't want to sound like cringy old women that just threw their husbands out
and now are desperately crawling back to them." Botan stated while Keiko's bewildered look
answered that Botan was entirely correct. (By the way guys just to let you know I have nothing
against cringy old woman I just used the saying as an example. K? I'm not a stereotype. )
"I know Botan, it just doesn't feel right. I mean look at the house its so still." Keiko sighed as she
mixed the mixture of chocolate and marshmellows into the darkened liquid within the cups. Keiko
then grabbed one and sipped it at the rim. "Here you go, just the right amount of chocolate we like."
Keiko laughed holding out one the mugs to her sister. Botan happily grabbed it, and sat on a
wooden stool. "I'll get breakfast ready." Keiko sighed and made her way to the refrigerator, pulling
out various foods, and then grabbing countless kitchen appliances and porcelain platter.
Mere minutes passed by with an eery silence overwhelming the room, no one spoke, nothing was
heard but the mere sounds of the sparking oil that was currently being heated up for Keiko's special
scrambled eggs. "Oh, that's it I can't take it!" Botan cringed pounding down her fists onto the green
marble top counter, making some dark liquid pour out of the mug and create a slight pool on the
countertop. (I know guys I'm making the girls sound desperate but I just need to start forming the
basis of the plot so bear with me. --)
Botan then grabbed the phone and angrily punched in a set of numbers. In seconds the phone at
Yusuke Urameshi's house ringed countless times.

"Who the heck would be calling us now? Geez…would they shut it already." Yusuke angrily said as
he sat there playing his video games and cursing at the player that kept beating him. "I'll pick it up."
Hiei lightly said and made his way to the phone that bounced everytime it wrang. "Hello?" Hiei said,
holding the phone casually, and biting into one of his sandwhiches.

"Hiei answered." Botan whispered to Keiko before both sighed reluctantly thanking God that the
boys were all right. "Oh hello Hiei." Botan smiled, but then frowned when she heard laughter
exploding in the room, it wasn't the laughter that bothered her. What bothered her was the fact that
out of the laughter she heard a very girlish laugh explode through someones lips. "Oh Yusuke, Hiei,
you guys are just too funny!" She heard another laugh escape a sweet womanly voice. Botan cringed
and felt her heart stop as her face faultered. Whats that? Am I feeling…jealous? Botan suddenly
wondered to herself, as her hand shook in fear clutching the phone. Immediately out of
frustration she hung the phone up and thrusted it against the other side of the room, making the
phone spiral through the marble floor and crash into one of the wallpapered walls.
"Botan!" Keiko screamed watching the phone smash to pieces. Botan stood there holding her hand
tightly together and almost shaking in fear. That voice…it was so familiar…who was that girl's
voice? What is she doing with Yusuke and…and-Hiei? Botan wondered to herself sickly.
"Botan! Why did you smash the phone whats the matter?" Keiko yelled not understanding what had
shooken Botan up. Keiko slowly crept up to Botan, "Are they alright?" Botan only stood silent lost
in her thoughts.

Meanwhile, on the other side of the line the boys were worried sick about the girls. "Botan! Botan!
Please, pick up." Hiei screamed into the phone. "She's not answering what could have happened to
her?" Hiei asked turning to Yusuke for advice. Yusuke only shrugged, "I don't know, and wherever
Botan is there's Keiko. If you ask me as a best friends duty I think we should go and check up on
them." Yusuke said already grabbing his warm jacket. "I agree, and by the sounds of it Botan didn't
sound too healthy or in the least bit happy." Hiei said and also grabbed his jacket. 'Come to think of
it we didn't even go to their house this morning.' Yusuke sighed to himself as a wave of panic rushed
over him, as he thought of the many possibilites that could have happened to the two fragile girls.
"Where are you boys going?" The girls' figure stood up. "Not now Saomi, we have to go check up
on our best friends." Yusuke said pushing her aside. "But, wait surely they are alright, come on I
have these tickets to the greatest movie, how about we go see it?" She grinned as she flapped the
three tickets in their faces. "I'm sure the girls are fine, plus they don't need us storming in." Hiei
proposed, while Yusuke grabbed the tickets. "Come on, what are we waiting for let's go!" Yusuke
cheered, while both Hiei and Yusuke raced out to the car leaving the grinning girl to smile in the
hallway.
A thick cloud of wickedness surrounded the girl. 'In all due time, I'll have both Yusuke and Hiei
in my grasp and they won't even notice you girls anymore. They will not even remember the
looks of your faces or the way you turn, they won't even notice you anymore. That's right
Keiko, Botan, I'm back, for a little revenge.' The girl wickedly thought and began to burst out in
laughter as she walked out of the boys house to meet them in their convertible.

"Her voice…it was a girl." Botan whispered only enough for Keiko to hear. "Voice? Girl? What girl
Botan?" Keiko softly asked. "It was the girl." Botan said, trying to think of who she was. "Botan!
What girl?" Keiko screamed beginning to panic. "When I called the boys, Hiei answered. I heard in
the background some familiar voice. It was a girl's voice and she was laughing. She was laughing
with the boys! That's the reason they didn't come over today because they are with her!" Botan
screamed as a mist of darkness and jealousy flashed through her pink orbs. Keiko fell back against
the couch. "A girl was with our Yusuke and Hiei?" Keiko asked but suddenly realized what she had
just said. "Botan, if I didn't know better I'd say we were two jealous girlfriends of our two best
friends." "Keiko, I don't even know why I am jealous, but the one thing that is annoying me is that
girls voice."Botan sighed.

"We're almost there." Yusuke laughed as he swerved around the curve. Something kept aching in
Yusukes heart, something was wrong, he just didn't know what. Before him he saw a flash of torn
apart hazel orbs peering right through his soul. 'Keiko, hello! How could I forget about her? We
always go over there every single stinken morning! Hey but this is only for today…I'm sure
they'll be fine without us for one day. Tommorow we'll go right back to them, and act like
everything is the same.' Yusuke thought to himself sadly. It wasn't the same for Hiei either. Who
would he fight with? Who would he laugh at? Who would dare to laugh at him? No one could ever
replace the spot he marked within his heart for Botan. "This isn't right…we should go to the movies
with them not with her." Hiei whispered lightly under his breath as he thought how disgusting she
looked sitting there in her fur coat.

"That's it! We're going over there whether those dumb boys like it or not! I am going to get to the
bottom of this! No girl is going to go and take our best friends away, and cuddle up to them." Keiko
growled and grabbed her winter coat. "How about first we get dressed?" Botan sweat dropped as
she pointed at Keiko's robe. "Oh right." Keiko laughed and ran up the stairs soon followed by
Botan. Botan walked out of the room to find Keiko playing with their silly gift from last years
Christmas present, and believe it or not she was still dressed in her robe. "Keiko, why aren't you
dressed yet?" Botan asked. "You know what I trust the boys. She's probably one of their long time
friends and they all decided to see her today. It's probably a short-term thing. I'm sure they will be
back in our house tommorow begging for mercy." Keiko laughed to herself, but both Botan and
herself knew it was a fake laugh. Yes, a fake laugh, that was made to cover up both wounds in
their broken hearts.
Authors Notes: Alright now we are slowly creeping up into the main plot of the story. Now I want you all to understand something, Yusuke and Hiei are NOT and I repeat are NOT in the least bit attracted to Saomi. The boys are not noticing that she is trying to pull them into her, the only thing they see is tickets, money, and materialistic things. That is why I purposely put in that Yusuke shoved her aside because they both don't give a care about her. They just became entranced with the materialistic objects she gives them, and they immediately forget of what is most important to them. But soon enough they will realize what is most precious to them. The girls. PLEASE READ AND REVIEW! TELL ME WHAT YOU THINK! LOVE, JACKIE!
