"Botan, what happened to your shoulder?" Kuwabara inquired looking at the blood stains on the jacket she still wore.

"Oh this? I had almost forgotten." She laughed nervously, examining the jacket, "I, ah..."

"She got attacked in the woods," Hiei broke in. His sudden words drew Botan's attention back over to him. He grinned menacingly at her, "perhaps someone should take a look at that?" Kurama continued to watch the scene in silence, feeling that the drama was not yet over. He almost could have gone for a popcorn. Botan's face turned beet red as she took an interest in the floor.

"No, ah.. that's alright. I'm just fine," she said, not able to see the mocking expression of Hiei's.

"Yeah, seriously Botan, someone should take a look at it," Kuwabara said with all seriousness.

"You wouldn't want it to get infected," Hiei added patronizingly. Botan shot up from her seat.

"No really, I'm just fine. Oh, I just remembered I had something I needed to talk to Yusuke about," she giggled mindlessly as she broke for the door. Hiei's eyes followed her out the door with a devilish grin on his face. He enjoyed seeing her squirm. Yusuke still stood at the door, only to get nailed in the face by it when Botan swung it open. "Ooops, sorry Yusuke. You really shouldn't stand in front of doors like that," she smiled at him and hurried off. Yusuke stumbled back into the room through the door Botan had left open, still trying to make the room stop spinning.

"What got into her?" Urameshi rubbed his forehead. Kuwabara glared at him for the intended pun, and he responded with a dorkish "heee."

"This is bad... This is very bad," Botan said to herself as she petered towards the elevator. Had Hiei been reading her mind? How could she have been so careless? She smacked herself on the forehead as the elevator door opened. When she removed her hand she saw none other than Chu, the drunken weird guy Yusuke had just beaten that day. Clearly he was intoxicated even now, so Botan was cautious as she stepped into the elevator with him.

"Good evening doll-face," his speech slurred.

"Ehehehe," She tried to refrain from saying anything rude. "Good evening."

"Aren't you with Urameshi's group?" He took a swig from the bottle he carried, "That's quite a cut you've got there. Those guys on Urameshi's team must not know how to treat a pretty lady!" Tears welled in his eyes at the unfortunate explanation he developed for Botan's wound. It simply broke his heart. Botan stared wide-eyed. Chu got uncomfortably close to Botan's face, resting his hand on the wall she pressed her back against. The smell of his breath alone could have given second-hand buzz, "How about you come with me?"

"Ahh," She inched towards the elevator door, "oh, would you look at that, it's my floor. Bye," she tore out of the elevator, bumping into a couple of people who were waiting, hoping Chu wouldn't follow. She wondered just how many girls he had accosted in the elevator just since the end of the first round. Once she looked at her surroundings she realized she was back in the lobby. Not where she had intended on going, but she definitely didn't want to get back on the elevator at the moment. With nowhere else to go, and nothing else to do, she decided to go sit outside.

There was only an occasional person stepping outside, but otherwise, no one else around. Botan took a seat on a bench near the front entrance, looking up at the sky. Despite the intent of the suggestion as it was originally posed, she thought she ought to have a look at her shoulder. She unzipped her jacket, and peeled it away from her shoulder, unaware of the eyes in the darkness that watched her. Her jackets sat in her lap as she poked at the three fair sized holes on her shoulder which were now beginning to scab over. Who knew how long she'd have to wait there before she could safely pass to her room with the rest of the girls, and get some sort of bandage on this? It's not like she should return right away, even if Chu wasn't making the elevator his place to meet girls. She had to get rid of her guilty face, otherwise the other girls were sure to catch it like sharks attracted to blood. Then, oh, then she'd have to explain just what happened. That Hiei must have been reading her mind when she...

(Somewhere in Botan's imagination)

Back on that rocky night shore, Hiei was positioned between Botan's legs, forcing them apart. Botan propped herself up with her hands as she met his eyes while he rested down between her thighs. She could feel everything, all of Hiei, through her panties, which was now all she wore. She hardly had time to flash him an erotic smile before he took her lips between his with a light grip. She parted her lips only to find herself receiving his tongue, which swirled around her own. Lightly, he played with her tongue as his hand slid up her stomach, coming to a stop on her breast. He kneaded, taking her pink, sensitive nipple in between his thumb and index finer, pinching it carefully to perk it back up. The taste of her stripped away Hiei's self control, he could no longer contain the urge to churn his hips against hers. He wanted to feel her more intensely, he wanted her to feel what she was doing to him. Botan moaned and fell back as the hardened girth of Hiei massaging her between her thighs brought a wave of delectation rushing through her body. He wasted no time in advancing over her, bringing his lips to the powdery, moonlit skin of her stomach. He kissed it passionately, sampling more of her, forcing her cream to dampen her panties. She tangled her fingers in his hair, breathily whispering his name as his kisses moved down towards her...

Botan wasn't even aware of the fact that her mind had gone into day-dream mode. It wasn't until the sudden presence next to her bench startled her that she returned to reality. "What are you doing here?" She was totally caught off guard. The robe-like shirt he now wore hid him a little better than before.

"I could ask you the same, but I think I know already," the little demon said peering at her through the dimly lit space between them.

"Whatever could you mean?" She asked meaning it to sound as though she didn't know what he was talking about. In actuality, it came out sounding more like she had just conceded to the fact that he knew. Hiei grunted at her,

"Don't play stupid." Botan searched for an answer, because he didn't seem like he was going to go away any time soon. "I wouldn't have expected one of Koenma's lap dogs to have such a filthy mind."

"I can have any kind of mind I want," she said crossing her arms across her chest. "Besides, it's not like it's any of your business."

"Not the business of the one you'd let between your legs so easily?" Hiei chuckled to himself. She went on the offensive, shooting up from her seat.

"Well if you don't like it, Hiei, maybe you shouldn't read people's thoughts. I can't help what pops in there." She said accusingly, stamping her foot on the ground, and looking slightly down at him so as to look him in the eyes. He took a step forward, coming a little closer than Botan was used to, tilting his head back at an angle so as to stare her... well, up.

"If I don't like it?" His remark sardonic, his expression suddenly turned to an evil grin she had only seen him use in battle, right as he had out smarted someone, just before he massacred them. She writhed, unsure of what he was up to. To her surprise, he turned and began walking back into the hotel. She regained her confidence.

"Wait. What did you come out here for?" She demanded of him. He paused and turned his head to the side.

"Just to wish you goodnight," he said mischievously.

"I wonder where Botan could be," Keiko played cards with Atsuko, "She left out of here so suddenly. I wonder if something's wrong?" No sooner did Atsuko win their game of Crazy 8s, did Botan walk in. "Botan! What happened?" Keiko said jumping up from the table, denying Atsuko the chance to gloat over her victory.

"It's a long story..."
