Well loyal fans of Broken here it is, what you've all been waiting for…Chapter 3!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Thunder crashed overhead as Hiei sat in the tree, his mind going over

Kurama and their relationship. Memories of bygone days fluttered in and out of his head. Trying his best to relieve his confusion and decipher

the code of his heart. 'The hints have always been there.' Thought Hiei,

flashes of Kurama giving him that tender look past through his mind.

'I've just been stupidly oblivious to them!' Hiei started getting angry but

then stopped, surprised. 'Why do I care so much that Kurama loves me?

It's his own stupid fault. It's not like I have to go back there anyway.' Hiei thought, smirking. "The question is do you want to go back?" said a little

voice in the back of his head. Hiei was startled. 'D-do I?' he asked himself.

An unfamiliar feeling bubbled in his heart and stomach. A small smile hovered

on his lips as he stood up. "Well I guess I have no choice then, do I?" he said.

Jumping down he ran off at full speed.

Kurama sat there in his living room eyes red from crying and

head thumping due to his major hang-over. 'How could I do that?

Why am I such an idiot!' he thought. 'Now Hiei will probably hate me.'

Tears welled up in his bloodshot eyes once more. Bursting into tears he

hid his face in his hands. "WHY!" he yelled at the roof. "What did I

do to deserve this? Is this punishment? Are you punishing me the crimes

of my old life? WELL!" He had never felt so alone.

Never in his centuries of life had he felt so much pain. The sudden sound of someone knocking the door drew him from his thoughts. 'Who the hell could it be at this time of night?' Kurama wondered as he dragged himself to the door. Not even bothering to make himself presentable he opened the door. Kurama was shocked to see Hiei standing there,

dripping wet. "Hie-" Kurama was cut off by Hiei who threw himself onto Kurama and locked his lips onto those of the youko. Amazingly the two managed to stay up.

At first Kurama was too shocked to do anything but then melted into the kiss, latching his arms around the shorter demon. Finally the two pulled away, panting and

desperate for air. Hiei looked up staring into the beautiful green orbs of Kurama's. Reaching a hesitant hand up he stroked Kurama's cheek.

"I don't know what it is you're making me feel but…I like it and I want it to stay." Said Hiei uncharacteristically nervous. Kurama captured his hearts desire in quick a kiss. "I think that can be arranged."
