Chapter 3: Time With Kurama A.K.A. Shuiichi
They had a wonderful dinner of Yakiniku and Sushi. Mrs. Minamino also cooked Ramen. She's such a wonderful cook! It's better than anything I've ever ate! She would've made a pig of herself, but she didn't want to embarass herself.
"I hope you enjoyed dinner!" Mrs. Minamino smiled. "You only had one plate."
"It was wonderful!" Hiyoko smiled back. "I just don't eat much." Which wasn't a lie, she really didn't.
"Oh, well at least you won't try to eat me out of house and home like Shuiichi's other friends, Yusuke and Kuwabara was it?" She asked.
"Yep." Shuiichi answered. "That's them."
Hiyoko giggled. She'd like to meet those two. They sounded funny.
Later that night Hiyoko layed awake in her bed. She wore a light blue nightgown that cut down to show a little cleavage and had see through sleeves. She was thinking about the day. Oh, kurama...or Shuiichi thank you. You're so kind to me, yet we've only just met.
She blushed at the thought of him. Nice and cute! She sighed. Nice combination...
Hiyoko couldn't take it any longer. She got out of bed and walked to the door. Before she opened it she paused. What am I doing? Then she opened the door and tiptoed to Shuiichi's room. I'm going to see Kurama. I need to.
She quietly opened his door and walked in. When she got to his bed she looked down at his sleeping form. He's so innocent looking when he's asleep...
Slowly, she reached down and ran a hand through his hair. It was almost as soft as silk! She gently touched his cheek.
"Need something?" He asked, his eyes still closed.
Hiyoko jumped at his voice. "I-uh..." She stuttered.
He sat up and smiled. She felt her cheeks redden with embarassment and knew they had to be at least beet red.
"I wanted to thank you again." She finally muttered, looking down. "It was kind of you to take me in."
"And what was the touching about?" His smile widened.
"I-I guess looking at you asleep was kind of...entrancing." She said, her face getting redder...if that was possible.
"I understand." He laughed. "I mean, I have a fan club, alot of girls like me."
"H-hey!" She protested, trying to keep her voice down. "Wh-who said I liked you!"
He smiled and looked into her eyes. She turned away, feeling as if he could read her soul.
"I can tell." He said simply.
"Whatever." She muttered, looking down.
"I'm glad." He said.
She looked up quickly. "Huh!" She said in suprise.
He just smiled and laughed. "You better go back to your room and get some sleep before Mom gets the wrong impression."
"Wrong impression?" She asked.
"Well, you're in my room at night and your face is so red you can even tell it is in the dark." He answered, still smiling.
"Oh!" She said.
"Good night." Kurama said.
"Good night." Hiyoko answered, walking through the door. "My little fox."
If he had been human he wouldn't have heard the last part. She said it quietly, not wanting him to hear. He thanked his heightened hearing for that. Now he knew for sure.
The weekend passed by fast, each night similar to that one. When school came, however, and Hiyoko met his friends and went through some teasing, she stopped being so clingy and obvious.
Kurama didn't like it. Besides, he liked the look on all of his fan club girl's faces. They were mad. He made sure to make it obvious around them that he liked Hiyoko. Not around his friends though. What's strange is Hiyoko dosen't even notice...It's like I'm just acting normal and being friendly to her. Or is she just hiding the fact that she thinks I like her. Does she know I do? Does she think she heard me wrong that night? Maybe I should tell her how I feel...even Yoko likes her. But why? Her presence feels familiar...
