-Band-aid-

''What are you doing?'' Came the demand, stern and annoyed.

There was a pause, long and tedious, shattered by a sigh.

''If you would only sit still-''

Then a grunt sounded and a low murderous hiss.

''I can't when you keep burning me with that.''

One let out a small chuckle.

''It's only rubbing alcohol.''

''Ningen crap.''

That same previous sigh repeated itself, laced with a growl but not from his throat.

''And what is that?'' Ruby eyes narrowed dangerously.

''A band-aid'' Emerald depths ignored the glare, completely accustomed to the empty threat.

''A what-?''

''A plaster.'' He tried again, lifting the item in question between his fingers.

That first aid kit was just full of surprises.

''I don't need it.'' A grunt ensued the dismissal.

The springs of the mattress shifted and weight rose from the mess of equipment around him.

''It will be infected.''

But a shrug was sent back to the wise comment.

''Hiei! Get back here now!''

The boy in question turned yet did not move any further.

''Kitsune, I'm fine.''

The protest and reassurance did not make falter the impassive face staring back at him. Both stubborn either budged.

''Kurama, I said I was all right.''

Before he could walk away to the window, a hand clasped down on his arm.

''Now you are.'' There was a sly smile, content as he released his hold.

Something felt out of place.

Eyes shifted down to where the band had been, after an ebony brow had arched.

''Baka!''

The band-aid was in place.

''It was for your own good.''

That glare resurfaced defiantly. Fingers twitched and despite the visage watching him, they pulled on the newly applied cheap bandage.

''You might not want to do--'' Too late.

The sticky pads pulled on injured, hair riddled skin as it was ripped away, in a fast movement. The other winced for him.

''Fu--''

However, the cry of pain never resonated through the walls. The cry of pain was muffled as Kurama captured Hiei's mouth in a kiss.

After all, his mother was just downstairs.
