Desires Of A Model
Chapter 4
A/N: Awesome, one more story to write and I'm through and ready to post! Anyways, again, sorry for any big mistakes you might find in this chapter. I'm practically blind, so let's blame it on my bad sight if you find any big mistakes. Thank you all for the reviews. I appreciate them all. Special thanks to my beta Brokenshardsofmyheart99!
Yusuke kept holding on to him. It wasn't irritating, but the grip kept on tightening. "Yusuke, you're going to leave a bruise," he said. Right after he spoke he regretted his words. However, this time the raven-haired model didn't make a joke about what he had said. In fact, his hold on him kept on becoming stronger.
"Yeah? Well, would you like to have your best friend dead or a bruise?" Was the comeback he had been anticipating. With a theatrical sigh, he raised his finger to his chin and acted as if he was thinking about it. That earned a moan from his friend, which made him laugh.
He shook his head. "Scared of heights? You never told me," he whispered, trying to spare his friend some mortification. Though he had a feeling that it was too late for that. It seemed Yusuke thought the same thing, since he ignored him and held on tighter.
Trying not too look down, Yusuke answered him. "Not so much, but for some weird reason I am right now."
Kurama patted his friend on the hand that clung to his arm. "It'll be fine. You just have to stand up here for a minute, look gorgeous, take a picture, and you're done!" he explained, hoping that it would calm Yusuke.
"Easy for you to say. You've got perfect balance," Yusuke muttered into his ear. Kurama shook his head, earning a tighter grasp from his friend. "We're up, like fifty feet in the air, and all that's keeping us from the ground is a thin rope!"
He looked down. "It's simply five feet, and this is a challenge. You never back down from a challenge, Yusuke," he spoke, trying to turn and unhand himself from Yusuke. In the end he succeeded, and walked on the thin rope until he stood in the middle. He tried to follow everything he had told Yusuke. The taking of the picture slowed him down since the photographer had to get a new role of film. During that time, he tried to look as calm as possible, in order to show Yusuke that it was no big deal.
Though Yusuke was now hanging on to the person behind me (someone by the name of Shishiwakamaru), he did seem as if he was trying to muster up courage before he had to go on the same spot where Kurama now stood. The photographer was now done, after taking a couple of more pictures than necessary, Kurama noticed. With grace, he walked off the thin rope, jumped, and landed on the ground. Though he had done it out of necessity, he heard clapping from the many people that were present.
Looking at Yusuke, Kurama walked to where the others that had accomplished the challenge now stood. With his luck, he stood next to Hiei. It might have been unnerving, but he kept his eyes trained on Yusuke, so it didn't cause him any uneasiness. Yusuke struggled a bit to walk to the middle, but when he did get there he managed to pull off a flawless pose. As much as he wanted to shout something to keep Yusuke's confidence up, he didn't incase he distracted him.
After Yusuke was done, he managed to jump down and land somewhat okay on the floor. He heard a snicker from next to him. "Yusuke managed to pull it off without a problem," he said. It seemed Hiei had another opinion since he smirked.
"It looked like he was going to piss his pants, not that yours was much better," he said, voice calloused. As much as it would've goaded someone else into a fight, Kurama remembered their promise.
He gave the other model a cheerful smile. "I did think I could use a few pointers. Thank you for your criticism," he said in his polite voice. The look on Hiei's face was well worth the punch to the arm that he received.
"Idiot," he heard the brooding model murmur.
A/N: Stopping here for now. Thanks for reading!
