Recap:"You wanted to kiss someone else." He didn't mean it as a question it was really a statement.
can only think of one way for him to know that. Hiei has dug deeper into my mind than I wish he had. He went deep into my mind and somehow didn't get trapped. Hiei had gotten pass all my mind walls and blocks. He had managed to get pass all my traps, mind games, and all of my protection. He wasn't simply getting my strong thoughts that are practically telegraphed, no, he was able to read my deeper thoughts. If he continued at this rate it wouldn't take him to long to get to my memories and past. From memories and past it would only take him four months to get to my soul.
"What are you looking for that would make you risk your own life?" I asked him trying to change the subject.
"The truth you're hiding."
"And what truth is that," I ask with a smug smirk as if he was just being ludicrous.
"What you're hiding from everyone. You don't make it obvious but I can tell there is something you're hiding from even your own sister."
"The only way to find out something like that is to get to my soul that I lock away from even Karin."
"How could your soul be off limit from her? The light and darkness twins share one soul."
"No, the text is wrong on that. We don't share one soul our souls are intertwined and we can get a basic fell for the others mood. We do not share one soul because we were born as two entities but because the goddesses choose twins as they're apprentices we become intertwined but never one. We do how ever need each other to live. If one dies the other will die as well if it can no longer find the will to survive; that is why I told you to tell my sister to be strong and as long as she believed that I died without a regret I hoped she wouldn't morn to long."
"Why do you say believed? Did you have regrets?"
"No not really. I always wanted to die by someone's hands that were stronger than me, but protecting Karin. When I sacrificed myself for her I was willing because my purpose in life as the darkness twin is to live sully for my sister and to protect her at the cost of my own life. When I fought you I told you to kill me, because you had defeated me and I have always thought that the day I did not defeat my enemy than that would be the day I die. To this day I do not see the reason you did not, even if I was weaken you still defeated me and if it was any one else they would kill me."
"Do you regret me saving you?"
"No," I tell him honestly as I look up at him. "I found more of a reason to live since that day. That reason is forbidden because I'm not allowed to do things for myself."
"Because you're reason in life is to protect your sister."
"And to forever keep her happy. Those are the two reasons for living, but recently my want for living has been changing slightly."
"Who was it that you wished to kiss?" Hiei asked changing the subject back to the one I changed it from. I sigh deeply to myself as I stare off ahead not wanting to move to such hot water.
"Hiei, I think we both know the answer to that one."
"They, why haven't you done it?" He asked the question somewhat harshly and something about the way he says it causes me to turn and look at him.
He knew. That I had figured with as much time as he spent in my head and the way that I was only really close to him and my sister. Recently though, I have been getting closer to him and farther from my sister. I had always been distant towards Karin, but it wasn't in tell we moved here that I distanced myself as much as I have now. That had nothing to do with Hiei, Hiei was just someone I could relate to and get along with without annoying myself to death.
"I…," I began to try and explain myself, but Hiei cut me off.
His lips pressed against mine, so soft and warm. His lips brought an instant sense of confer and security. This feeling that Hiei brought upon me was something that could not be compared to the feel I felt when I was in the darkness and I used to believe that to be my closest to happiness. I know that I felt it now with Hiei at this moment. The feeling so great and intense that if it wasn't for my great control on my emotions I know I would have cried.
He pulled back, stopping the kiss.
"You didn't like it?" He sounded like he was just stating it, but it was actually a question.
"No, I did," I tell him shocked by the sound of my voice. It came off soft and natural, but I heard the slight edge of desperation for him to believe that I truly did like it. I did I truly did like the kiss.
"Then why didn't you kiss me back?"
I didn't want to tell him why. I was embarrassed to admit that I got so caught up in the feel of happiness and shock in the difference in the kiss between him and Yusuke that I didn't respond back to his kissed. I had closed my eyes but that was about it for my response.
Inset off admitting that though I just lean in and kiss him myself and without hesitating he kisses me back. His arms already around me from when I first leaned against him tighten around me as he pulled me closer to him to deepen the kiss. I respond to him by turning my body more in the direction of his as my arms wrap around his neck. I find myself almost in an upright sitting position. We soon have to sit up for air though as we pant looking at each other.
"I never wanted to his him. I only wanted to kiss you."
"I know," he answers panting alongside me as I slip back into a sitting position with my head on his chest.
"It won't take long for them to come find us once the sun goes down," he tells me as he looks up at the sky to already find it somewhere are two in the evening.
"I know, but let's ignore that fact tell they come," I tell him as I close my eyes and relax.
"She must be truly relaxed when her ears come out," I hear Hiei whisper to himself as his hand begins to rub my right wolf ear before he begins to pet them.
"Karin, Hiei," I hear a union of six voices scream out at once.
"Why so soon," I mumble to myself and feel a light raise and fall of Hiei's chest that was out of his breathing pattern. I had made Hiei chuckle. It was inaudible, but still a chuckle.
"I can sense them somewhere around here!" I could hear their footsteps approaching rapidly and I can only think of one thing that could prevent them from finding us.
"Universe of darkness," I whisper quietly as for them not hear us as they come through the brushes and stand below us.
They can't see us, but they can hear us, I think to Hiei as I look up at him with my finger to lips.
"I swear I could feel them somewhere around here," I hear Kurabawa say as he scratches the back of his head and looks around with the others.
"I know why we can't see them!"
Shit, I think as I look at Karin hoping she wasn't up to what I thought she was. I didn't want to leave where I was yet. I was so conferrable and relaxed until they showed up and disturbed me.
"Light in the darkness around, show me the truth and dispel of the darkness around me. Show me what the darkness hides with in." My sister speaks the whole incantation, unable to dispel of my darkness in any other form. She was weak compared to me, but the incantation still dispersed of my darkness.
"There you are," my sister says happily as she sees my with Hiei's arms wrapped around me.
"Of course, why wouldn't she be with Hiei?" Yusuke turns his back and begins to walk away from the rest of the group.
"You have Keiko and I know you're already with her Yusuke!" I shout after him and cause him stop in his step and look and turn to look up at me with a look of horror and shock. He didn't know that I knew about them sneaking around at night and that they were together. Most of the group had figured they broke up, but the fact that I knew and I was just a new comer to this group caught him off guard.
"You shouldn't be mad at me for coming out to the woods and Hiei following me if you go around sleeping with Keiko and the very next day you kiss me when we're training. I never kissed you back and I never planned to kiss you back. In what way did I ever lead you on? I told you before I don't like half breads, why would I date one if you're more human than demon? I detest humans and find them the most obnoxious race in existence. You aren't as ignorant as most so I can tolerate you but I do not find you suitable as a mate if you can't even be loyal to the one you have." The look of shock on everyone's face was something that couldn't have been repeated twice. The only one that didn't find this shocking was Hiei because he knew my feeling on the matter, but so did my sister. I wasn't sure if it was because of the fact that I called Yusuke out on the matter of him cheating in front of everyone or because I so bluntly and coldly. It could also be the way that I so openly told him that I was disgusted with his race and would never mate with a half bread or a human, let alone an un loyal one. More over I called him out on it in front of Keiko without anything to prepare her for it.
"Don't worry Yusuke because when she goes out to the club with the girls she cheats on you as well. She thinks that if you can do it to her she can do it to you. You two are not very good mates if you push each other to the point of cheating. If this hurts you so much Yusuke maybe you should be better mate to your mate."
"H-how do you know all of this?" Keoko stammers as she tries to regain her control of herself.
"I know a lot about all of you," I say simply as Hiei looks at me.
How do you know all of this? Hiei asks me through telepathy.
I know a lot of things I shouldn't and do you think I really just sit in my room bored all day? I find info on people with my shadows in case they find anything interesting for the day we might be on opposite side. You on the other hand I collected info because I was course. I smirk up at him as I tell him about what I do on my free time when I get bored though I would never tell the other about that.
"What do you know about me?" Kurabawa asks and I just look at him with a bored expression.
"There was no point in digging into your past because I could tell you everything there is to know about you without going through the hassle. You love cats and is inspired by Elvis. You feel that girls should never be hurt in battle and that all girls love you. You also are horrible at school but love to start fights with everyone. That is just about everything there is to know about you."
"Since you know so much maybe you could help me find my brother?" Yukina says hopefully, but I just shake my head.
"I'm sorry but I can't help you with that. When and if you're brother feels like coming out and telling you the truth about himself that is up to him. You're brother has always been there for you though through most of his life." I smile sweetly at her as I see the disappointment on her face. "I would if I felt it my place, but this is not something of my place." She nods her head.
"It's alright I understand," she says smiling at me. "At least I know that he is watching after me."
"He always has but from a distance." I stop myself there knowing that I shouldn't say anything else after that.
"Why don't we all head back?" Kurama asks and we all, in a silent agreement, begin to head back to the house.
