[ T - Teen: Not suitable for readers under 13 ]
Kurama watched from a distance. He wanted her. There was nothing he had wanted more in his life than to clear the pain from her eyes. He knew what he was going to sing. He finished of his drink and waited for his turn.
Chapter 2
“Oh kami, I feel sick,” Kagome said. Her friends laughed.
“That was great Kagome!”
“You were awesome!”
“DAMN you caught the eye of every guy in this place with that performance Kagome!”
Said girl looked up at that comment. Sure enough she was being stared at by a number of men at the place. She looked around the bar recalling a pair of emerald green eyes. She found them, directly across from her staring into an empty glass; one of the only pair of eyes that wasn’t still trained on her.
Kagome studied him carefully. He was beautiful. He had the most gorgeous red hair and brilliant green eyes she had ever seen. He turned away from her, still lost in his thoughts, and looked towards the stage. Kagome looked around to see who he was with.
‘Wow’ she thought as she felt the spirit energy coming from two of the men in their group. She then noted the jaki coming from a short man dressed in black. He didn’t look very happy, but he wasn’t hurting anyone or trying to steal the jewel from her yet so she let it go. That’s when she noticed that the man she had been looking at was also emitting jaki, though it was covered greatly by the feel of a normal human.
‘Interesting group,’ she thought, remembering her band of unlikely comrades in the past. Naturally this thought brought tears to her eyes again and she looked quickly back down at her drink to hide the effect her turn of thoughts was having upon her.
Kurama looked back at the girl and noticed she was crying again. He was just about to get up and do something to stop those tears when his name was called. He noticed that the girl looked up to see who was next and quickly caught her eye. Her eyes widened at the message his gaze sent to her.
Turning towards the stage Kurama walked up and took his spot. Clearing his throat confidently he looked back towards the girl as she sat at the bar. Her eyes were now fixed on him. ‘Good.’
The music started.
When you try your best but you don't succeed
When you get what you want but not what you need
When you feel so tired but you can't sleep
Stuck in reverse
Kagome gasped. These words were for her. He told her that with his look. Her eyes watered as the words struck home.
And the tears come streaming down your face
When you lose something you can't replace
When you love someone but it goes to waste
could it be worse?
Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try and fix you
Kurama made sure to keep his gaze firmly on the girl. He made sure their eyes stayed locked as he continued to sing, his smooth melodic voice matching his own natural beauty.
And high up above or down below
When you're too in love to let it go
But if you never try you'll never know
Just what you're worth
And Kagome suddenly wanted to know what she was worth. She wanted to know terribly.
Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try and fix you
Who was this man who she felt so drawn to? How did he know just what to sing to reach the depths of her pain? How could he know, when her friends barely even noticed? Kagome had begun crying again, but she was hardly even aware of the tears this time.
Kurama waited as the background music played and the backup vocals sang through the sound system. He kept his gaze locked on the girl.
(Tears stream down your face
When you lose something you cannot replace
Tears stream down your face
And I
Tears stream down your face
I promise you I will learn from all of my mistakes
Tears stream down your face
And I )
Kurama’s voice once again filled the room as the song came to an end.
Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you.
Kurama bowed as the room once again filled with loud applause and whistles. He walked determinedly around the bar ignoring the amazed stares of his friends. “Since when has Kurama had such a good voice?” Yusuke exclaimed as he passed, but Kurama’s eyes were on one person only.
Reaching his destination Kurama bowed slightly in front of the girl and took her hand in his.
“My name is Kurama,” he announced, kissing the back of her hand lightly
…………………… 8230;…………
If Kagome had been surprised when the amazingly handsome man sang to her, it was nothing compared to the pure shock of seeing him walking intently towards her with the same intense gaze. She didn’t know if she should turn and run or wait to see who he was.
He was in front of her before she had made a decision.
“My name is Kurama,” the man said, taking her hand in his and kissing it.
“Ka…Kagome,” she said, swallowing past the lump in her throat. She felt the man wipe a tear from her eye, his free hand resting gently on her cheek.
“It’s nice to meet you, Kagome,” he replied, still gazing into her eyes.
“It’s nice to meet you too…Kurama.” Kagome gave a watery and sincere smile to the man who had promised to fix her broken heart. ‘Maybe I will love again,’ she thought with a little more hope than before.
