Yu Yu Hakusho Fan Fiction ❯ Third Party Love ❯ romance at midnight ( Chapter 5 )

Zarbonia: this is the moment we've all been waiting for. This is w here it all really begins. This is where a third wheel gets in the way of everything. Now that I've filled these lines we can get on with the story.

We kept walking for a long time. A very long time, a very, very long time, a very, very, very, you get the point don't you?

Well, when we got somewhere we were still walking. This is a violation of my rights, I want my lawyer!

When we finally stopped at a hotel we rented a few rooms (duh) and then walked some more to a food stand. Do you see the very annoying pattern that I am making? If you don't then we walked, a lot.

"What should we get to eat in this place? I'm thinking we should buy something from here." Kasha gestured towards the stand in the middle of the park.

No one decided to object because we could tell that we would get shot down anyway. Girls have too much power today in our civilization compared to demons at this point.

"I don't like it. I think that I just saw something move in the green stuff next to the purple stuff." Z stepped back behind Touya who had a very blank expression on his face.

Oh great, now the genius is color-coding our food, how appetizing.

I kept looking at Touya because of the discussion we had earlier. He didn't even look in my direction, but I could tell that he knew that I was starring at him.

"I wonder what they're thinking about." Z whispered to Kasha who was paying for what looked like a disembodied worm.

"You know how guys are. They're probably trying to figure out who took Jins' money to pay for the food."

I put my hands in my pockets and, hey, wait a minuet; did she just say she took my money to pay for a mutant tomato? I was saving that for some horn-polisher.

We all went back to the hotel to eat. The girls decided that we should pair up in each room.

Kasha/Z

Jin/Touya

"I don't want to be stuck in a room with some gay horny demon. Plus, I need Z to help me with some with something."

Touya took me aside and said, "I need to talk to you, now."

We walked down the streets, through the brush, and into the park.

I wanted to talk then and there but I had a feeling what Touya wanted to talk about so I thought it would be better to postpone the inevitable. He stopped when we got to a moonlit pond surrounded by trees and fireflies.

"Jin, what's wrong with you?"

MEANWHILE, AT THE HOTEL

"They've been gone for a long time I think I'm going to look for them, is that okay with you?" Z said starring at the window.

"Whatever, just don't come back all gay-like."

Z got up and walked out, she knew something was up, something that she would try and destroy.

"What do you mean?" I sat down next to him on a stone close to the puddle of light behind him.

"You've been acting weird since the tournament, like you're a different person."

"I still don't see what you're saying."

"you've changed a lot since we first met but I liked you a lot better before. Did I make you do that?" he starred at me as if he wanted to cry.

I looked down at my hands. I didn't want to respond.

I felt stupid

I felt scared

I felt helpless.

"Please tell me! I want to know, I'll change if you'll go back to the way you were." He grasped for my hand but I pulled it away. I didn't want him to touch me.

"If it was me, I want to know." He sounded defenseless and confused.

"Yes, it was you but I don't want you to change. You see, ever since the day I saw you I fell instantly in love. The only reason I changed was because I couldn't take the fact that you would never understand what I felt for you." I didn't really care that it came out like that but it didn't matter. He'd probably try and keep more distance between us.

"Jin, I didn't know."

I decided to leave, I was making myself mad by talking to him but he pulled me back down.

"What do you want now?" I yelled at him.

I hated myself

I wanted to die.

"I'm going to go home because," he put his finger over my lips.

I looked into his blue shimmering eyes. They were like oceans, mysterious, dangerous, and deep. I wanted so much to share them.

He started trying to pull me in, it worked. I leaned in closer. I could feel his warm breath on my lips as they touched.

"HI GUYS! WHAT'S UP?!" Touya fell into the pond behind us from the surprise.

Z sat in Touya's place. "you better go and get him." She smiled.

I turned form her and jumped in. by the time I go to him he was gasping for air.

I don't know why but that was funny. I started to laugh.

"Z, how did you get here so fast. We left more than an hour ago and just got here." Touya asked trying to ignore me.

"If you didn't notice there were two ways to get here. And you took the side street."
