Chapter 4:

Talking Tired and Rain



*****



“So,” Hiei started around a mouthful of food, “What did you want to say about last night?”



“Please, Hiei,” Shuuichi gave a look of complete disgust, his ham and Swiss lay untouched, “I know I paid for it, but I don’t need to actually watch as you chew and swallow your meatball sub.”



“Hn,” he rolled his eyes, and finished the bite before continuing, “What exactly is it that you have to say about last night?”



“I’m… I’m really sorry, I didn’t mean to hurt you.”



“Hurt me?” the shorter teen raised an eyebrow.



“You landed on your butt pretty hard.”



“Hn, it didn’t hurt.”



“Then why did you run?”



“You threw me across the room, I thought it best to let you cool down,” he shrugged, taking another bite of his sandwich in hopes of ending the conversation, but it didn’t work.



“I hurt your feelings,” he half asked, half stated.



Hiei just huffed the comment off.



Shuuichi shook his head, his friend wasn’t the type to talk about anything like feelings, “Come on, finish up and we can go see a movie.”



“You’re not dragging me to another chick flick, are you?”



“How many times do I have to apologize for that? It was a mistake, I got tickets for the wrong movie.”



“You just won’t admit that you like those sappy romance plots.”



“That would be beside the point,” he smiled, “I believe that there is a psychological thriller that you might like.”



*****



Shuuichi looked up at the setting sun, “I guess we had better be heading home. I promised mother that I would help her with dinner.”



“Hn, what’s new?” Hiei shrugged, still stretching out from being in the movie theater too long.



“So, what did you think of the movie?”



“It was… interesting?”



“You started snoring three minutes in,” the redhead stated dully.



“Fine, it wasn’t exactly my kind of movie,” he huffed.



“Not all good movies have to have large bombs going off every five minutes just so you can stay awake.”



“Hn, not even an atomic bomb would get me to wake up long enough for that movie.”



“You didn’t even give it a chance!”



“I didn’t need to,” he stuck his tongue out at the taller teenager.



“Be careful, I might try to bite it off,” he warned with a coy little smile.



“Hn,” was all Hiei could manage, he spent the rest of his energy on trying to figure out if Shuuichi had been teasing to be a jerk or teasing to be a flirt. He was in complete contemplation when Shuuichi stated his good bye. When had they gotten to his house?



“I’ll see you tomorrow, okay? We’ll start working on your history project,” the perfect student waved as he walked away.



“Yeah, thanks,” he repressed the urge to at least hug his tall and absolutely beautiful friend.



“Great… um, bye,” he looked at the ground for a few seconds before strolling off into the setting sun.



“Yeah…bye,” Hiei stood on the front stoop for another minute before turning into the house.



*****



Dark eyes fell on the window to the outside world for the hundredth time in the past ten minutes. He kept thinking about the possibilities of being out there rather than in here. He felt the need to see the fox again. It was a strange yearning. That man’s beauty was so breath taking that he felt he could asphyxiate at some point and time, especially when the long, smooth fingers touched him and the kiss was like a pleasurable death.



With a small groan of need, Hiei climbed out the window and headed for the forest where his fox had promised to always meet with him.



Within a few minutes, a slightly breathless Hiei was in the middle of a small clearing yet again calling for the silver man’s attention.



“Oh, two nights in a row? It must be my lucky week,” the silver fox purred from one of the shadows surrounding the short teenager, “I’m impressed that you are here, I thought that you would never want to be near me again.”



“Come out, I want to see you.”



“You want to see me?” the lust flowed through that husky voice and wrapped tightly about Hiei in a strong blanket of need.



Swallowing hard, Hiei admitted his yearning.



:Hm: a silver fox slunk out of the shadows, slowly padding his way up to the teen’s feet before morphing into the beauty Hiei felt he was slowly falling for.



“Kurama…”



“Yes, my love?”



“It’s just so hard to believe.”



“Too good to be true?” he gave a coy smile as he approached in a slow determined pace, his tail swaying this way and that in a mesmerizing beat, holding Hiei’s attention to the very tall creature’s slim hips.



“You’re a cocky creature.”



This only brought on a sexier smirk, “Would you like to see how cocky?”



“No, not really.”



“Oh, you hurt my feelings, love,” the fox pouted.



“I did no such thing,” Hiei huffed at the much larger demon.



The fox reached out to brush the back of his fingers against the other’s tanned cheek, but Hiei flinched away.



“Don’t.”



“Sorry,” Kurama pulled away as if he had been burned.



“I don’t think that I’m your type…” he murmured.



“My type? I have a type?” his ears twitched a little as the golden eyes raked over Hiei’s form once again.



“You’re… so beautiful…”



“Why thank you.”



“I just… can’t compare. Why are you in love with me? I can’t even stay still when you try to touch me.”



“You’re just not used to it. I’ve watched you for so long. I know how much you push people away,” he raised his arm in a graceful movement and held his fingers just a centimeter away from his face, “See? You didn’t flinch.”



“Hn,” he nodded looking at the long nails that were just barely scrapping his skin.



“Is it okay if I kiss you?”



“You ask that now after molesting me in bed yesterday?” he raised a fine eyebrow which disappeared under the bandana. He was completely surprised when the fox gracefully kneeled and bowed before him taking his much smaller hands within his own.



“I do apologize for that. It drove me wild to be so close to you finally after yearning to touch you for over a decade now.”



Hiei’s eyes went wide as he found the great demon on one knee before him, asking him for his forgiveness, “Uh… yes?”



With a familiar smile that Hiei just couldn't place on where he had seen that smile before, the fox stood swiftly to once against stand almost two feet above him, “Excellence. So, let’s kiss and make out.”



“I don’t think so.”



“Why not?”



“I’m not making out with you.”



“I bet you’ll like it if you try. I’ve been told that I’m really good at it.”



“By who?”



“People… demons, mostly.”



“Ah-ha…” Hiei raised a fine eyebrow.



“Oh, fine, I guess we can talk,” he sighed, settling on the ground with his tail sitting in his lap.



“Hn,” Hiei nodded, settling a little farther than the fox than absolutely necessary.



“So, what do you want to talk about?” Kurama started to play with his tail that he had seated in his lap.



“What is it that you do?”



“I watch over the forest. I make sure that no one ever tries anything stupid in here. You’ve never heard of any murders taking place here, have you? No muggings? I tend to watch out for the humans who wander in here on accident.”



“You watch over everyone?”



“Yes.”



“So you know my friend.”



“Hm?”



“I met him here a long time ago,” he smiled at the memory.



“Oh, yes, I recall… I assume that those boys never tried to pick on you again, correct.”



“How did you know?”



“Let’s just say that you get extra special treatment,” he winked.



“Uh-huh…” Hiei let out a small yawn.



“It’s getting rather late, you should go home. I trust that you will return to me at a future date?” he leaned in and placed a soft kiss on the boy’s brow.



“Hn,” Hiei nodded and started to wonder through the forest, climbing back into his own room.



*****



“Hiei!” Shuuichi nearly cheered when he tried to wake his slumbering friend on Monday, but the boy was completely exhausted from visiting Kurama that morning, only getting a few precious hours of sleep.



“Ugh… mother… gribble…”



“Wake up, silly,” the redhead shook his friend’s shoulders, “or else we’ll be late for school.”



“What do you want?” he sleepily glared up at the other teen.



With a playful smirk, Shuuichi leaned in over the other’s sprawled body, his hands on either side of Hiei’s head, “I want you.”



“What!?”



“I’m kidding,” he laughed, “Come on, it’s time to get up. School’s in just over half an hour.”



“Yeah… yeah, whatever,” Hiei barely managed to roll out of bed and stumbled into semi-clean clothing.



The redhead chuckled softly as he led the dressed, but not fully aware Hiei down the stairs and out the front door after their usual farewells to Yukina and Aunt Ruri.



*****



“Yo, so who’s Shuuichi fucking on the side?” Yusuke asked the shorter teen in one of the classes they shared, neither really knew which one it was since neither ever paid enough attention to see what was even written on the board.



“What the hell are you talking about, Urameshi?” Hiei barely raised his head from its comfortable position on his folded arms.



“Haven’t you noticed? The redhead’s been acting really weird, like he’s hyper or something. He’s really happy about something. He’s got to be getting some from someone. It’s you, isn’t it?”



“We’re nothing more than friends, you moron,” Hiei rolled his eyes, but there was inner turmoil as to who the perfect student could be getting so close to without telling Hiei. It wasn’t until lunch that he managed to get answers to the questions that were building up inside of him since second period.



“Sleeping with? I’m not sleeping with anyone. Believe me, Hiei, if I were to get a boyfriend, you’d be the first to know.”



“Boyfriend?” he raised an eyebrow.



“Didn’t you know?”



“I guess, but you never really told me, though.”



“I didn’t think that I had to. I never really tried to hide it. I assumed that everyone just knew,” he shrugged.



Hiei just huffed as he poked the ‘food’ on his tray, “I swear that thing just tried to escape.”



“Stop complaining and just eat the darn thing,” Shuuichi laughed.



“I don’t eat things that are still moving, and don’t even try to bring up that worm from when we were little,” he pointed his fork at the other’s face.



“Here, you can have half my sandwich,” the redhead handed off the plastic bag, “It’s mother’s specialty, ham and turkey.”



“I don’t think that your mother’s specialty would be a sandwich,” he grunted as he took a bite, “So what has you so happy all day?”



“I don’t know what you’re talking about,” he assured with a brilliant smile, “I’m just as happy as I have ever been in my life.”



“You seem like you’re walking on cloud 8.”



“I think you mean Cloud 9,” Shuuichi shook his head, “and I promise, there is no one that you don’t know about.”



“So it’s someone that I know?”



“You’re taking this the wrong way.”



“Who is it?”



“There is no ‘who’. I don’t have anyone,” he sighed heavily.



“…Is… is there someone that you like?”



A light blush tinted his cheeks as he met the intense reddish-brown eyes, “…Yes…”



“Hn,” Hiei grumbled under his breath, hiding it behind the sandwich he was now eating.



*****



Shuuichi had someone that he liked. He would have asked who it was, but he had a feeling that he didn’t want to know the answer. The weather outside was about as good as Hiei’s mood during track, and he headed home dripping wet thought his hair somehow managed to keep it’s spiked shape. He felt the cold water drip down the back of his neck. Yukina loved this kind of weather. Actually she preferred it to be even colder. He had no idea how she could stand the winters. Hiei hated the cold, preferring the sweltering heat above all else. The rain started another downpour as he was passing the forest. He stood there, staring deep with in the shadows. He could swear that golden eyes flashed at him, and he was about to go into see if the fox was ‘home’ when a familiar voice called to him.



“Hiei?”



“S-Shuuichi? What are you doing here?”



“What am I doing here? I’m not the one standing out in the middle of the rain with no sort of coverage,” the redhead stood close to Hiei, holding his umbrella over the both of them, “Come on, let’s get you home.”



“Ah… right…” he looked up into large, worried green eyes.



“Are you all right?” Shuuichi ran a hand through the dampened raven black hair, shaking out as much water as possible.



“Yes, I’m fine… I think…” Hiei murmured, looking into the forest once more before leading the way to his house.



“Oh, Shuuichi, dear,” Aunt Ruri greeted, “It’s nice to see you. Would you like to stay for dinner, or at least until the rain let’s up a little?”



“I can’t stay for dinner, but the rain should be letting up in a little bit,” he slipped off his damp shoes.

Yukina smiled, “Allow me to make you some tea.”



“That sounds nice.”



“…I’m home, too, you know.”



“Of course you are,” Aunt Ruri pinched Hiei’s cheek with a smug smile.



“Damn crazy woman…”



Ruri just smiled with a little laugh before turning to the tall redhead, “What have you been up to as of recently?”



“Nothing really.”



“Do you have anyone special?”



Shuuichi turned a light shade of pink, “Um, no, not really…”



“There is someone that likes,” Hiei grumbled.



“Oh, really? Who is he?”



“See, Hiei? Even your aunt knew without me having to tell her,” he smirked at the shorter teen.



“Hn,” Hiei crossed his arms, “I have to go change.”



“I’ll come with you. I have a feeling Aunt Ruri won’t let up on me until I tell her who I like.”



Nodding, Hiei led the taller boy up into his mess of a room.



“Mm… lovely…” Shuuichi stated, dripping with extreme sarcasm.



“You’re the one who followed me. Don’t complain when I’m helping to protect you from my aunt.”



“Hm, sorry.” He laughed as Hiei’s shirt was completely stuck to his skin, and was having difficulty getting the thing off, “Need help?”



“I’m fine.”



“You’re stuck.”



“Hiei? Shuuichi? I’ve brought you some tea…” Yukina stood in the doorway, trying very hard not to laugh at the way Shuuichi was leaning over her twin, trying to strip him of his shirt. “Maybe I should leave you two alone…”



“Yes, please,” Shuuichi laughed, clinging to Hiei suddenly, knocking them both over on to the floor, which was cushioned with clothing.



“Argh! What are you doing? Jeez, you’re heavy, get off of me.”



Shuuichi laughed as he crawled off the now bare chested teen.



*****



It was later that night when the redhead had gone home and the sun had set. Hiei sat in his room alone, thinking over how Shuuichi's hands had been all over him just a few hours ago. He recalled the feeling of the redhead leaning over him when his hand moved down into his pants, unbuckling and unzipping. He grasped his semi hard member and began to pump slowly, thinking about those large green eyes and full pink lips. He pictured the teen leaning over him once again as he had while he was 'helping' him with his shirt. Hiei was turned on even more as he recalled the smell of Kurama, somewhat earthy yet as fragrant as a rose. His undoing was the thought of Kurama riding him, peering down on him as he came, his sharp golden eyes glistening with pleasure.
