By: Yaiko Youkai

June 16, 2003

Hia woke as usual and got dressed for school in her winter uniform now that it was December and cold. Then she woke Kita then Kurama and they when threw the same rutin she had already gone threw that morning. She didn't bother to wake Yusuke cause he never goes to school any way.

"Kita you ready yet?" Hia asked threw the door to Yusuke's room.

"Yeah, yeah, yeah… I'm coming." Kita said in an annoyed tone.

"Well if you weren't so slow we'd never be late but we are always' late." Hia said in a very annoyed tone.

"If you'd wake me earlier I'd already be ready." Kita complained.

"Yeah right. You'd hit me if I woke you any earlier." Hia said and walked away from the door back to the kitchen and sat down.

"Kita, I'm going to walk you to school today." Kurama said from the living room.

"All right." Kita said from inside Yusuke's room.

"I'll see you when you show up Kita I'm going on ahead." Hia said and walked out of the kitchen then the apartment.

<They deserve time alone together. Wonder where Hiei's been for the last week?> Hia wondered as she walked to school alone with her hands in her pockets and shivered every once in a while because of a breeze. Hiei's left and didn't tell any one where he was going, when he'd be back, or if he'd be back.

"Hia Toshita." A guy said and got her attention.

"Yes? Can I help you?" Hia asked when she spotted the guy who had said her name she stopped when he walked in front of her not letting her walk.

"Uhm…You're very beautiful you know that." The guy said.

"Thank you but can I go to school now." Hia said in a tone that said she didn't care.

"I was wondering if you'd go out with me tonight? And maybe have some fun latter after dinner." The guy said in a very suggestive tone.

"No!" Hia said and started around the guy.

"You can't say no to me." The guy said and grabbed her arm making her stop.

"I just did now let go of me." Hia said in a threatening tone.

"Or what? I think I'll have some fun now." the guy said and twisted Hia arm and she yelled in pain. Then he grabbed her hair and pulled her head back.

"Let go of me you son of a bitch!" Hia said then stomped on his foot and he let go of her arm and hair and started bouncing around. "Now I don't know how you knew my name and I don't care. But now for what you did to me you're going to regret it." Hia said and hit him and hard in the nose as she could with the arm he hadn't twisted.

"You little bitch!" He yelled.

"Fuck off." Hia said and kicked him right between the legs to make sure he got her point. "Bastered." She said angrily and walked away.

<Oh great my arm's going to hurt for a while. I just got all the bruises healed. Damn it!> Hia thought angrily entering her school yard then the school. She stormed up to her class room and sat down in her seat knowing school didn't start for another ten minutes.

With Kita & Kurama!
"Kurama are you sure Hiei didn't say where he was going? Hia seems so lonely now. Yukina went back to the ice world for a while and Hiei's disappeared. I spend all my time with you now." Kita said worried for Hia.

"Hiei didn't tell me any thing. Hia will be fine as soon as Hiei returns." Kurama said and hugged Kita as they walked to her school.

"Yeah but she seems so sad now." Kita said sadly.

"I know but she'll be fine. I hope Hiei gets back soon." Kurama said like he was waiting for some thing from him.

"Why do you want him home for Kurama?" Kita asked innocently noticing he sounded like he wanted something from Hiei.

"For Hia's sake of course." Kurama lied.

"You're a really bad liar Kurama. What is it you want from him?" Kita asked.

"Nothing." Kurama hated lying to her but it was the only way he could keep it a surprise. (A surprise to you too. ^_^)

"Oh Kurama would you stop lying to me. I know you want some thing from him. it's like your waiting on an answer or some thing. Every time the door opens you look to see who it is." Kita said.

"I'm not lying. I don't want any thing from Hiei. And all I want to do I protect you when I look at the door. Who knows who will come in. friend or enemy." Kurama said hoping he was convincing enough for her to forget about it.

"Fine if you don't want to tell me where he is or any thing else I'm going in. see you later Kurama." Kita said and walked past him and into her school with out a second look at him.

<Hiei get your ass back here. I'm getting in trouble! Surly you've talked to her long enough.> Kurama thought then went back home not wanting to put up with all those stupid flocking girls today.

In Hia & Kita's Class!

"Hey Hia what's up?" Kita said and walked in just before the tardy bell rang.

"Well maybe you two should come to school separately all the time. Now I see which one is all way's the reason for being late." The teacher said.

"Oh leave me alone. I get enough gripping at from Hia." Kita said and hit Hia's arm slightly walking back to her seat behind her.

"Ahhh…don't do that! Excuse me." Hia said and stood up and walked out of the class holding her arm. Kita jumped up and followed her.

"Hey Hia what's wrong?" Kita asked running out of the class to see Hia leaning against the lockers holding her arm.

"Don't touch my arm please." Hia said and sounded as she was in pain.

"What the hell happened to your arm?" Kita questioned.

"That kind of language is not proper for a young woman. But I would like to know the same thing Hia." Their teacher said coming out of his class.

"Oh hell I was attacked this morning the guy twisted my arm and pulled my hair trying to have his way." Hia said.

"Why didn't you tell me this morning?" the teacher asked.

"Cause he probably can't have kids now anyway." Hia said still holding her arm.

"Come on let's go to the nurse and call the police." The teacher said and walked to the class next to his and asked that teacher to watch his class. Then escorted Hia and Kita to the office cause he knew Kita wasn't about to leave Hia alone.

"Hia I'm sorry…" Kita said sadly.

"It's not your fault. You didn't know. But don't hit it again please." Hia said and smiled at her best friend.

"Promise." Kita said and smiled back at Hia.

Back At Yusuke's!

"Hiei it's about time what did you find out?" Kurama asked seeing Hiei walk in the door.

"Genkai said we have to do some thing like buying wedding rings and engagement rings and give the engagement ring to the girls when we purpose." Hiei said.

"And how do you do that?" Kurama asked.

"Like I said we buy the engagement ring then in a romantic moment we get down on one knee take their left hand place the engagement ring on their third finger called the ring finger and asked them to marry us." Hiei explained.

"So that's where you've been all this time. Why didn't you just ask me?" Yusuke asked.

"We thought it better to get the info from a woman and the only human woman we know besides our girls is my mother and Genkai. And I wasn't about to ask my mom. She'd freak out." Kurama said.

"Well we also know Shizuru but I think she'd rather kick our butts then answer questions then there is your mom Yusuke but she's usually occupied with a bottle." Hiei said.

"Tell me about it. Shizuru scares me, and my mom's always drunk. She's been that way for years." Yusuke said and sighed.

"Hia wait up. I know you're mad but slow down." Kita yelled running after Hia carrying bother her stuff and Hia's.

"If that dumb bitch would have touched my arm again I would have killed her." Hia said and walked into the Apartment with a sling on her arm.

"Hia what's wrong with your arm?" Hiei ran over and grabbed her hand.

"HIEI!!" Hia yelled then slapped him.

"Ouch…" Hiei whined.

"You idiot! You don't grab some ones are like that." Kita yelled hitting Hiei too.

"Ouch I just get back and I get slapped twice." Hiei whined as Hia held her arm.

"One more person touches my arm I swear Kita I'll put them in the hospital." Hia said angrily.

"I'm sorry Hia but what happened?" Hiei asked.

"Well since my frikin boyfriend vanished for a week guy's got ideas and that's what happened!!" Hia yelled at Hiei. "Where in hell did you go any way?" Hia asked angrily

"It was a secret mission Hia I'm sorry…" Hiei whined.

"Now he knows what it feels like." Kurama said to himself.

"What was that supposed to mean Kurama?" Kita asked.

"Nothing…" Kurama said quickly.

"You knew where he was didn't you!!" Kita yelled at Kurama.

"What?" Hia asked.

"No I didn't!" Kurama said defensively.

"Yusuke…" the two girls said turning to him.

"Hey it was so secret I didn't know about it until now." Yusuke said backing up.

"BOTAN!!" Hia and Kita both yelled.

"What's all the yelling about?" Botan asked coming in on all the yelling.

"Was Hiei on a mission?" Hia asked and Botan looked past Hia for a split second to Hiei who was nodding 'yes'

"Yes why?" Botan asked.

"OK! Just wondering." Hia said.

"Did Kurama and Yusuke know about it?" Kita asked blocking Botan's view of Kurama not knowing she had. So Botan looked between Hia and Kita confused, covering that she was looking at Hiei again, which he was nodding 'no' this time.

"No! What's up with you two?" Botan asked keeping her confusion cover on.

"Nothing!" Hia said then walked past Hiei to the kitchen with Kita. Botan walked over to Hiei, Kurama, and Yusuke.

"What's up?" Botan whispered to the three of them.

"I wasn't on a mission." Hiei whispered sadly and looked at the floor.

"Figured that much Hiei." Botan whispered. "What's up with those two?" Botan asked to where the girls could hear.

"Hia's mad cause I was gone and I don't know about Kita." Hiei whined also making sure the girls could hear then sat down on the couch with a pouty look on his face.

"Kita's mad cause she thought I knew where Hiei was." Kurama said just as loud as the other two and walked over to the window and looked out sadly.

"Poor guys." Botan said then looked at Yusuke.

"Let's go for a walk Botan." Yusuke said getting Botan's reason for looking at him.

"Yeah maybe the girls can talk to them or they can talk to the girls." Botan said louder then necessary, then they left. Hia and Kita stuck their heads out of the kitchen door and looked at Hiei and Kurama.

"Kurama darling I'm sorry. Will you forgive me. I should trust you more. I'm so sorry." Kita whined as she walked up to him and hugged him and he looked down and smiled down at her then leaned down to where he was just inches away from her face.

"Of course I'd forgive you my love. But yes you should trust me more." Kurama said then started to kiss her very passionately.

"Hiei?" Hia asked and walked out of the kitchen and stood beside the couch.

"Yes?" Hiei asked and looked at her with hurt in his eyes, which made Hia very sad.

"Hiei I'm sorry. I should have believed you and never should of hit you. I'm truly sorry." Hia said and looked down at the floor sadly.

"I should have told you I would be leaving, why I was leaving, and when I'd be back. I shouldn't have been gone for so long though." Hiei said sadly standing up and walking over to her then making her look at him.

"Just don't grab my arm please I've been threw enough torture today. First that jerk nearly broke it then that stupid ass Nurse made it feel worse. After Kita had hit it. Then you grabbed it. Sorry but you were the one there when I went off." Hia said.

"And that guy?" Hiei asked.

"Well lets put it this way he won't do that again cause he can't have kids now." Hia said and smirked.

"Oh god what did you do?" Kurama asked after braking a kiss with Kita.

"Kicked him. what else?" Hia asked.

"Ouch…" Hiei and Kurama said crossing their legs which made Hia and Kita laugh.

"Well he piss me off. Teating me like a no good street corner slut." Hia said angrily.

"You're not a slut. So stop referring to yourself and such." Hiei said in an ordering fashion.

"I'm not others treat me that way." Hia whined.

"We don't." Hiei said and kissed Hia passionately.

"Hey what's today?" Kita asked.

"Um…the 21st why?" Hia asked breaking away from Hiei.

"Christmas is in four days." Kita said happily.

"Oh yeah. Hey let's go to the mall Kita." Hia said walking over to Kita.

"Yeah." Kita said excitedly as the two walked out the door with out looking at the other two.

"Uhm…did I miss some thing?" Hiei asked as he watched the girls walk down the street from the window.

"Christmas is in four days. They're going to the mall to buy gifts." Kurama explained as he watched the to girls.

"Hey where are those two going in such a hurry?" Yusuke asked walking into the apartment.

"Christmas shopping." Kurama said then remembered he hadn't done any himself. "Oh crap I have done any." Kurama whined and started for the door.

"Christmas? What are you taking about? Gifts?" Hiei asked.

"Uhm…Hiei you really don't know much about Human traditions do you." Yusuke said.

"No! Of course not why?" Hiei said.

"Christmas is a human tradition. You give presents to family and friends. The ones you love." Kurama explained.

"Oh OK!" Hiei said a little confused.

"But you can't just give any gift it has to be something she will cherish and remind her of you and your love for years to come." Botan said.

"Oh how am I supposed to do that?" Hiei whined then looked out the window and noticed that it was snowing.

"The effort is what count's the most." Yusuke said.

"Come on Hiei I'll help you out." Kurama said and headed for the door again and they left going to the mall too.

At The Mall!

"Looking for something for your wife sir?" a sales person asked Hiei.

"Uhm…no my girlfriend I don't have a wife yet." Hiei said.

"Oh I see then this must be a special gift then." The sales person said then smiled. "I have the perfect gift for you sir follow me." He said then walked to the back of the store and Hiei followed him.

"I wonder if Kita would like this Hiei?" Kurama asked and turned to see that he was talking to himself cause Hiei wasn't there anymore.

<Why that little…never mind he just made me look like a complete idiot.> Kurama thought and saw a woman pull her son away from Kurama like he was going to attack them or something then he sighed.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

"Hey Hia hurry up. I've all ready picked out something for Kurama." Kita said whining.

"Well I can't help it. He never told me what he liked besides his sister and fighting." Hia whined as she went from store to store.

"Ma'am the mall will be closing in twenty minutes are you looking for something in particular." A sales person asked.

"Uhm maybe you can help me. I can't figure out what to give a guy who loves to fight." Hia said.

"Well I may have some thing it's perfect for a person who fights." The guy said and smiled at Hia when she perked up.

"Great!" Hia said, happily as she followed the guy to the counter and bought Hiei's gift and the guy wrapped her gift and Kita's gift too.

"Thank you sir. You're a life saver." Hia said and smiled.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

"The mall will be closing in a minute sirs. I hope you have every thing picked out and ready to go?" a sales person said to Kurama. Hiei already had a wrapped package and was smiling from ear to ear.

"Yeah…I think I'm ready." Kurama said and picked up some thing else. "Yeah I'm ready…I hope…" Kurama said then walked up to the counter then spotted some thing else Kita might like.

"Hey Kurama what are you doing now? the girls don't even know we've left come on." Hiei complained.

"Hiei bring me that." Kurama said and pointed to some thing. (Aren't I mean I'm not letting any one know what they're getting each other until later. ^_^)

"What this?" Hiei asked grabbing some thing.

"No that beside it." Kurama said then Hiei move left a little. "no on the other side." He said.

"Oh OK! This?" Hiei asked.

"Yes that'll be perfect for her." Kurama said and smiled when Hiei handed it to him. Kurama paid for every thing and the guy wrapped it for him then they left.

At Home!

"Kita I'll hold yours go in and see if they're home." Hia said.

"All right here." Kita said handing Kurama's gift to her then running up the stairs to the apartment.

"Good it's about time the four of you…Kita where are the other three?" Yusuke said turning to see only Kita standing in the door.

"It's safe Hia they're not here." Kita said and motioned Hia up to the apartment.

"Where are they?" Hia asked.

"They went looking for you after you just ran out and left then after apologizing to them." Botan said.

"Oops…" Hia said and laughed dumbly.

"Well they'll most likely will be back soon anyway don't go after them this time." Yusuke said. Then Hia and Kita walked into Yusuke's room and shut the door. They placed the gifts in the closet and Kita grabbed her night cloths and a robe then walked out of the room and to the bathroom. Hia grabbed her night cloths and started to change as Yusuke kept watch at the window for Hiei and Kurama then saw them.

"Hey Botan." Yusuke whispered.

"Yeah?" she questioned.

"Keep them occupied with something." Yusuke said and walked out side to stop Hiei and Kurama and make them hid for a few minutes.

"Hey where's Yusuke going?" Hia asked coming out of Yusuke's room with a pair of shorts on and a tank top.

"He's waiting to Kurama and Hiei to return." Botan said.

"Oh OK! Maybe I should wait with him." Hia said and started for the door.

"I'm hungry let's get some thing to eat." Botan said grabbing Hia's arm and pulling her to the dinning room.

"Hey I'm hungry too." Kita said coming out in her bathrobe with her night cloths on underneath.

"All right let's go." Botan said and smiled leading the two into the kitchen.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

"All right it's safe come on. Let's put those in my mom's room." Yusuke said leading Hiei and Kurama into his mothers room then back out of the apartment. "all right you guys have been looking for Hia and Kita since a few hours after they left." Yusuke informed.

"Right." Hiei and Kurama said.

"Hey they're back. They couldn't find Hia or Kita." Yusuke said.

"We're in here come and join us. The foods good." Kita said happily.

"Since when have they been back?" Kurama asked playing along.

"For about twenty-five minutes." Yusuke said then walked into the kitchen to see three girls sitting around eating and three other plates of food laying there.

"Those ours?" Hiei asked.

"Yeah of course silly." Hia said and smiled at him then he grabbed a plate and sat down beside Hia.

"Great I'm hungry too." Kurama said and smiled at Kita. Then grabbed a plate and sat down beside her and ate his food.

"OK! Seems like I'm the only one who ate today." Yusuke said then grabbed the last plate and sat down across from Botan.

"Where's Yukina?" Hiei asked.

"She went back to the Ice World since her brother disappeared and Kuwabara wouldn't leave her alone." Hia said then looked at him sadly "Don't do that Hiei you scared me." She said.

"I won't I promise." Hiei said and smiled at her. "How's your arm?" he asked looking down at it.

"It's fine. No one has bumped into it since you grabbed it." Hia said then leaned over and kissed Hiei.

"Hey is any one home?" a familiar voice rang from the door.

"Yeah Yukina." Hia said and got up then walked into the living room to greet Yukina.

"Oh Hia what's wrong with your arm?" Yukina asked running over to her.

"Don't grab it what ever you do please. Hiei's already been slapped today for that." Hia said and a pleading tone.

"Hia let me heal it at least for always saving me when Kazuma shows up." Yukina said.

"Yeah sure." Hia said letting Yukina place her hands around her arm. Then it didn't hurt any more. "Thanks Yukina." She said happily taking that stupid sling off.

"Yukina, Yukina, Yukina…Yukina!!" Kuwabara yelled running through the door then fell back out of the door and down to the ground.

"I really dislike that guy." Hia said stretching her arm then shutting and locking the door. She smiled at Yukina as she lead her into the kitchen.

"You didn't even give him a chance to get to me." Yukina said and smiled at Hia then at Hiei, "Brother." she said bowing slightly to him.

"Yukina." Hiei said smiling.
