THIS IS DEDICATED TO LILYSTELL! BTW, SHE'S THE ONLY REASON I CONTINUED WITH THIS ONE! I REALLY NEED A 4 OR MORE RATED OR NONE AT ALL!
NO RECAP!
I felt so dead the next day. I had gotten restless sleep and even though I was part vampire I didn't feel good enough to go to school. Hiei had to go though so he could get the calculus homework. He couldn't afford to double up on assignments. Kurama, however, being the only sensible one, could stay home with me. I just laid down in Hiei's bed.
Kurama didn't mind the day off I figured out. He was playing solitaire at the end of the bed and I watched as he won every game. "So, Yumi, is there anything you wanted to talk about?" he asked and he shuffled the deck for the forth time. "Just family troubles Kurama. Nothing to worry about," I mumbled laying back on my pillow. "Did you want to take a nap?" he asked. I nodded weakly. He crawled under the covers and hugged me to him.
For some reason I felt really comfy and I had to ask him, "Kurama?" "Hmm?" "Will you be my big brother?" I asked hopeful. Kurama nodded and I fell asleep to his heartbeat. I woke up to Kurama holding a bag of blood in front of me. I tore at it and it was drained quickly. Kurama chuckled and ruffled my hair. "So cute," he said. I just stuck my tongue out at him.
"Hey, I have to fix dinner, did you want to help me or dream about Hiei more?" he asked with a smirk. My face would have gone red if I was human. "W-What?!" I shouted. "You were talking in your sleep, something along the lines of 'yea mom this is my boyfriend Hiei..' and 'Hiei for God's sake not in public!' It was really cute to listen to," Kurama said laughing. My eyes just widened. I scowled at him as he started to laugh harder. I picked up the pillow and hit him with it.
He grabbed the other one and we began to have a pillow fight. I duck as he went for my head but at last minute he switched and hit my stomach. Kurama ended up winning and was sitting on my back refusing to let me up until Hiei saw. About 2 hours later Hiei came through the door and saw Kurama playing solitaire on my back. "Umm.. Am I missing something?" Hiei asked. "Kurama thought it would be amusing to see your reaction," I grumbled.
Hiei smirked and said, "I should just leave him like that." "If you do I'll never help you in calculus again," I said in a bratty tone. Hiei huffed and pulled Kurama off me. Hiei piled his books onto the bed and scowled at me. "Show me the ways of the math dork, Yoda," he said. I shrugged and filed through the books. An hour later we were both finished with our homework and dinner was ready. Of course I never ate with them but talked and laughed with them.
Hiei was always quiet during dinner though so I never expected much out of him. When it was time to go to bed he just couldn't stop smiling. "What?" I asked. "Hmm?" "Why are you smiling?" I asked. "can't I just smile for no reason?" Hiei said. I gave him a skeptical look. Hiei smirked and said, "Fine, if you must know Kurama told me what you were saying in your sleep."
My eyes widened in shock.. And then I got really pissed off. "Kurama!!!!" I yelled. I ran for the door but Hiei got there faster and closed it. "Now why would you want to kill Kurama? All he did was tell me what you said, do you even remember your dream?" he asked. I shook my head no as I fumed. He smiled. "Can I test something?" he asked. I could tell he was trying hard to not smirk. I was instantly nervous but I nodded. He grabbed my hand and pulled me to him.
He put one hand on my lower back and one to tip my chin up. He breathed on my ear sending chills down my spine. "I'm going to kiss you," he whispered. Even with the warning it was a surprise. Hiei was a really good kisser. His lips moved softly against mine but he started to get a bit rougher. He ran his tongue along my lower lip and I instantly granted him entrance. Without realizing it my arms snaked around his neck pulling him closer.
He pulled away but left our foreheads touching. "I guess I was right," he said catching his breath. "What?" I said. I didn't need to catch mine, vampire. "Vampires are the best kissers," he said with a smirk. I should have blushed. I pulled out of his arms and turned away and tried to get past him to the door. "Where are you going?" he asked. "I-I need a walk Hiei, to think about some things," I said quietly as I headed to my room.
I pulled on a black hoody, baggy jeans, and my lace up boots. I went as quietly as possible down the stairs but Kurama was at the kitchen table. "What are you doing up so late Yumi?" he asked. "I'm going out for a bit," I said. "But-" "I need this Kurama, things just got a lot more complicated for me," I said taking my communicator off the charger and headed out the door. By the time I was on the road the full moon was shining with its usual splendor.
Hiei, if you're listening, I beg you not to. I need to work through some things, and I can't do that with you in my head. (fine) thank you. (Whatever) I just walked along side the road thinking. I can't be with Hiei, I know that. I've seriously started to fall for him though. But I promised myself I wouldn't hurt anybody else, and I just reopened a fatal wound for my family I'm sure. I don't think I could bare anymore. I can't break anyone else's heart. And I didn't want to have mine broken again.
I flipped open the communicator and pushed speed dial one. "Yumi? Shouldn't you be sleeping?" Koenma asked. "Koenma, I can't take anymore. I don't care what you do with my soul, I just can't stay here," I whispered into the spirit phone. "Yumi, I can't take you out of there right now, you need to stay a bit longer," Koenma said. "DID YOU NOT HERE ME?! I'M QUITTING!" I shouted. Koenma sighed into the phone. "Yumi, just because people start showing affection for you doesn't mean you have to-" "Yes it fcking does," I said through gritted teeth.
"I can't do this Koenma, I always end up hurting the ones I love so I'm better off alone! At first I thought Hiei was just going along with your school plan, but after tonight- Just get me outta here," I mumbled on the brink of tears. "No," he said simply. "What do you mean no?" I shouted. "No," he repeated. "Teleport me there now so I can kick your ass," I yelled. "No." "No you're just fcking around with me," I said angrily. "Maybe, but you're staying there Yumi whether you like it or not. You've got a debt to pay off to the spirit world and unless you want to go to Limbo," he said darkly.
"I may not be good with legalities but I sure know that that is unjust punishment!" I shouted. Limbo: The worst punishments to spirits, ripped away every part of you except for your nerves for pain. "Perhaps it is but if that's what it takes for you to stay there then I'm willing to do it!" the mini Lord of existence said. I hung up on him and took deep breaths. I felt like crying, like killing, like doing something very out of character. I wanted to get drunk, to be different from the usual me, to not follow the rules.
I dialed my brother's number, "Kurama? I'll be back on Monday," I said and hung up. I may not be able to do a lot and feel a lot, but I'm going to have some fun damn it.
