Author's Note: These are the last three chapters everyone... (becomes teary-eyed) It's been fun... this'll probably end up as my longest story ever... 31 chapters and counting (I didn't think I could write that much) plus I've reached 20,000 words. It's awesome! Oh, if someone's OOC, sorry... I haven't really watched that many episodes of Saiyuki...


Chapter 31: Willing

Botan wasn't sure what possessed her to actually walk into a place like this. Maybe it was curiosity, maybe it was boredom, but Botan soon found herself as a waiter inside this gambling parlor. She coughed faintly, not use to so many people smoking, and her mood was dampening at a rapid pace as more then once she had been hit on by sweaty, balding guys with no money.

In truth, she was about ready to hit the next man who came up to her with her tray, but refrained from doing so. After all… her uniform did consist of one of those bunny-girl suits… I outwardly groan. 'Why the hell did I agree to get a job here again? Oh yeah, the boss threatened me.'

She heard someone whistle and turned her head to the left, seeing a crimson haired man waving at her. Sighing dejectedly but putting on a semi-happy smile, she trotted over to the man. Once she got closer the first thing she noticed was that he actually looked hot. The second thing was that his eyes were red, which usually meant that someone wasn't either all human or human at all. Hiei for example.

"Are you going to stand there all day or are you going to service me?" He asked, a playful smile tugging at his lips. There were many ways Botan could have taken that. All but one of them were perverted. She colored brightly, but professionally bowed anyway.

"Sorry sir, can I take your order?" He smirked, grabbing Botan's hand.

"Can I have your name?" Botan deadpanned. 'Got to give him points for being to the point…'.

"It's Botan…" He stood up, hugging her close to him, gaining a startled yelp from the blue haired girl.

"I'm Sha Gojyo, pleased to meet such a lovely female like you." Despite knowing it was just something he said to get in her pants, she couldn't help the blush.

"Can I take your order sir?" She asked once more, gently trying to pry the man away from her. But to her amazement, a black haired man with a monocle pulled Gojyo away from Botan.

"Thank Koenma…" She muttered under her breath as she watched the black haired man scold Gojyo for messing with an underage girl. She huffed, surely she didn't look that young. But still, she was grateful the perverted man was away from her.

"I'm sorry for his actions, miss. I hope he didn't offend you." Botan smiled faintly, reminded of Kurama for some reason.

"No problem, but I've got to get going. Uh… lots of people to wait on. Good bye." And with that Botan scurried away, leaving a discouraged Gojyo and a perturbed Hakkai.

"I would have had her too if it wasn't for you meddling." He huffed, another girl out of his grasp.

"You would have been hunted for raping a little girl." Hakkai pointed out as Gojyo smirked,

"You can't rape the willing!"
