Chapter: Originality of love
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Hiei made it to the portal in record time. Clutching his purchase, he ran to the jewelers he saw in the market earlier as soon as he reached the ningenkai. Despite the holiday rush, there were only five people in the shop; two couples and a single man. After only two minutes, a jeweler called Hiei to the counter
“Can I help you?” A man with sandy blonde hair and glasses said.
“Would I be here if you couldn't?” Hiei replied tersely.
“Right you are,” the man said, attempting to put on a small smile, “What can I do for you?”
“I need a custom ring made for, say three o'clock.” Hiei requested.
“It might be tight, but I think the lovely young lady you are planning to give this to might deserve the extra effort to get this order in for today. What do you want?” The man replied.
Hiei rolled his eyes and pulled out the tear gems. “I want these to be made into a rose and flames.” Hiei pulled a pencil and paper on the counter to him, and lightly sketched what he wanted. The picture was a red rose surrounded by a circle of black flames licking at it.
“I want two of these,” he said.
The man studied the sketch, enthralled by its beauty and the hard work it was going to take to make it. “I am going to have to use a larger band to have the shapes visible,” the man said.
“How big?” Hiei asked
The man showed about half an inch.
“Fine, just do it.” Hiei shoved the gems at the man. “I want these to be used.”
“They might work; they look strong enough that they will hold shape under the drill.” He nodded to himself.
The man walked over to the cash register. He punched in a few number, and turned to Hiei.
“Your total is $100 dollars for the band and engraving. You saved on the jewels because you brought your own.”
Hiei shifted his sight.
“You don't have the money do you?” The blonde observed.
“No,” Hiei said.
“How about a couple of those jewels? They look like something that could hit the market big.” He said.
“How many?” Hiei asked.
“Let's say five and call it even.”
Hiei handed over five of his own tear gems.
“How about your phone number, I think I might need more of those if they are going on the market.” He asked, becoming excited about being the only jeweler to have these new gems.
Hiei gave out Kurama's number because he was staying with him in an apartment.
“I won't call today, but maybe you can come over tomorrow at noon so we can draw up a contract and you might even get some money out of this.” His eyes shining and flashing dollar signs as he offered.
Hiei nodded, and left the store. He glance to the town clock and it read noon.

“So you'll do it?” Kurama asked.
“Sure,” the man said, “you have the money?”
“Yea, $100, enough for both.” Kurama assured
“See you at four.” The biker said.
Kurama left the tattoo shop, glad to be away from the ugly and smelly men, and headed to Genkai's temple. It took him a half an hour, but he thought it was worth it to see the fresh flowers. He wandered around in search for the ice maiden, and found her in front of the fountain in the back feeding the birds that were left this season.
“Hello Yukina” Kurama greeted her.
She turned towards his voice and nodded slightly as not to upset the birds.
“I was wondering if I could take a picture of you for an album I am making.” The redhead lied. The picture was really for Hiei, but he avoided telling her that.
“Of course,” she agreed softly.
Kurama pulled out a disposable camera. He turned off the flash, and snapped a picture of her and a blue bird on her shoulder. Kurama called his thanks, and rushed off to the nearest camera center to develop his picture.

Hiei had been wandering around town looking at the thousands of gifts that were in store windows, and saw a flower shop. Getting the idea to get Kurama some, Hiei ran home to get some cash.
He grabbed a few crumpled twenties, and bought an assortment of different colored roses.
Trotting back home at a normal speed as to not ruin the flowers, Hiei spotted Kuwbara searching around. The komori grumbled under his breath, and picked up his pace.
Hiei returned home for a second time, and placed the flowers in the fridge for them to keep better as the directions advised.
It was then that he noticed a note on the counter. It read:
Hiei,
if you make it home tonight, be in the clothes
I picked out on the bed by five o'clock.
Love,
Kurama
Hiei peeked at the clothes, and was greeted with a black suit. Wherever Kurama was taking him must be fancy.

After waiting ten minutes for the pictures to develop, Kurama raced off to the jewelers to pick out the other part of that gift. Kurama was glad that he had a friend at the camera center that developed his pictures so quickly. Kurama walked to the back counter of the store, and looked at the lockets. There was a beautiful one with engraved roses in silver, and an open space for an engraving.
A clerk with blonde man walked over to him to help him. Kurama pointed to the locket, and asked if they did engravings so that it will be done by two fifty.
“I think I can do that,” he answered, “what do you want on it?”
Kurama pulled the pad of paper and a pencil on the counter to him. He drew a smaller heart of flames surrounding the words `forever and ever my fire demon'.
“Is there any stone that I can have put in for the flames?” The fox asked.
“Yes, as a matter of fact, a shipment of new stones has arrived today.” The man went into the back of the store to retrieve the already unrecognizable tear gem to display.
Kurama nodded, and requested that the gem be put in his purchase.
“That will be $100,” the man said.
Kurama pulled out the bills, and left the store.
