Thinking
^o^o^o^o^o^o^o^o^o^o^o^o^o^o^o^o^o^
Gwenevere paced around her room impatiently, periodically pausing to glance out her window to the large tree planted there. But her usual campanion was absent, no matter how many times she looked over.
'Where could he be?' Gwen thought as she stopped pacing and dropped to her bed. She gazed up at the ceiling with a tired sigh. 'Could it be that he doesn't want me as his friend anymore? The last mission... what he said...'
Gwenevere sighed again, letting herself drift into the memory.
^^ "Hn. Why would he sacifice his life for her?" asked Hiei scornfully.
Kurama smiled. "Trust me, Hiei. There are reasons."
"Well, I'd never do it," replied the little youkai with a scoff. ^^
Gwen closed her eyes, feeling the anger begin to rise in her chest. 'Stupid little youkai! The nerve of him, saying that around me! He makes me so mad!' Tears threatened to overflow, but she held them back, if with some difficulty; crying was for weaklings. She only remember crying only four times before in her lifetime, and even then, she had shed few tears.
Reflecting on what Hiei had said, Gwen found another thought beginning to surface.
'I am a hanyou. But why do I feel so uncomfortable thinking about it?' Gwenevere kept her gaze half focused on the window, gazing out at the starry night, still hoping Hiei would come. 'And what's this being an Adehriea? Or a Healer of Light? I thought...they were extinct...'
Thoughts continued to emerge, coming in droves, crashing down in heavy waves on her mind and threatened to overcome her. A cool wind blew in the open window, and she shivered in response, but refused to close it. What if Hiei came? He would probably undoubtedly see the closed window as a sign of scorn, his visit unaccepted, and leave.
That was a bit odd. Did Hiei's visit really mean that much to her?...
She gasped. 'Do I have a crush on him?'
Bolting upright, she felt a flush rise to her cheeks. 'Oh no! I'm blushing!' Gwenevere held her hands to her cheeks, feeling a warm tinge. 'Oh great! Why do I blush whenever I think of Hiei or Kurama?!' Gwen covered her face with both of her hands, closing her eyes tightly and clenched her teeth. But... 'Wait... OR KURAMA?! I have a crush on him too?!' Gwenevere was suddenly quite confused. She liked both of them... but who did she like more?
'Okay. Time for rational thinking. There has to be a rational solution here, there absolutely has to... I have a... strange feeling about Hiei, as though I knew him before... but I've known Kurama longer...' Gwen got up and began to pace again. Another thought rose unbidden to the front of her mind...
^^ "Aw, but they do make an adorable couple!" Botan squealed in a perky tone. ^^
Just that thought alone made her blush deepen. 'I think... I think I like... Kurama.'
Gwen jumped on her bed happily. "I like Kurama!" she squealed, giggling. Tamping down her laughter, she jumped on the bed, landing on her backside, and grabbed the phone, dialing quickly.
"Moshi moshi?"
"Konnichiwa, Minamino-sama, this is Gwenevere. May I please speak with Suiichi?" she asked politely.
"Certainly, just a moment, Gwenevere," came the kind and slightly laughing response.
Gwen only had to wait a minute before hearing the soft alto query. "Moshi moshi?"
"Hey Kurama!" Gwenevere said excitedly.
"Oh, hello Gwenevere. Do you need anything?" he asked, his tone slightly concerned.
"Um... would you like to come over? I mean, is it all right?"
"I think so, but let me check with my mother."
After another minute of waiting, Kurama's soft voice spoke up again. "Sure. I'll be right over."
"Okay, ja ne," Gwen said.
"Ja ne."
She hung up, looking out the window. A very peculiar black shadow appeared to be resting there...
Gwen went to the window and sighed before leaving her room to wait downstairs for Kurama.
Fifteen impatient minutes of waiting later, Gwen heard a knock on the door. She ran to it happily, but in her haste, tripped over her own feet. "Itai...COMING!" she called eagarly, standing up and making her way to the door, somewhat more carefully. Taking a deep breath, Gwenevere opened it to find an apparently quite worried Kurama.
"Gwenevere, are you okay? Is something wrong?" Kurama asked immediately, looking her over for any obvious external injuries or signs of illness.
"I'm fine, Kurama. It's just that...I want to tell you something," she finished in a rush.
Kurama looked at her seriously and nodded. He walked in and followed her to her room.
Once in Gwenevere's room, Gwen shut the door, and Kurama just stared at her, slightly baffled.
Gwen looked at him shyly, and in a tiny voice, whispered, "I think I like you."
"Really?" He asked, walking towards her.
She nodded, feeling another blush rise to her cheeks. 'Oh, great. He's gonna say that he doesn't like me that way. I'm so stupid!'
"I felt exactly the same way ever since I laid eyes on you," he murmured with a gentle smile. "I didn't want to tell you until just the right moment...that is to say, now."
Gwen could only gape at him for a long moment. Abruptly wrenched from her blank stupor, she wrapped him in a tight hug, estatic beyond words that he returned her feelings.
In fact, she was so happy, she spontaneously kissed his lips. Suddenly realization settled in, and she drew back, both blushing bright crimson.
At about midnight, Gwen hopped into bed. "Kurama, do you have to go home?"
"No. I told my mother that I'm sleeping over," he replied, walking to her closet to get an extra cot.
"Oh..." Gwen murmured as she watched him. "Um...Kurama? Could you sleep with me tonight...like we used to when we were younger?" (No, not like SLEEPING together. Get your minds out of the gutter. =^_^=)
He looked back, slightly startled, but accepting all the same. "All right."
The bed moved as Kurama climbed on and laid beside to Gwenevere, his arms around her waist and hands on her stomach. She put her hands on top of his and giggled as he tickled her a bit. "Stop that, Kitsune, or I'll change my mind and push you off this bed."
This time it was his turn to laugh. "You sound like Hiei."
She laughed with him. "Yeah, well, just goes to show ya that I've been around him a lot."
About a half an hour later, they fell into dreamless sleep.
(Yep! Now I decided to put a little bit of Hiei's POV into this chapter.)
^o^o^o^o^o^o^Hiei's POV^o^o^o^o^o^o^
I watched her pace around her room, wondering why she was waiting for me. 'I'm just a criminal,' I thought darkly, opening my Jagan out of pure curiosity to poke around her mind. She was thinking about what I said during the last mission, that I wouldn't sacifice my life for a ningen. I had known after I said this she had felt hurt, wondering if I wouldn't sacifice my life for hers. That she would do that for me. I felt guilty, and now that guilt is keeping me out of her room. I had hurt her feelings...
'But feelings are weak,' I thought stubbornly. 'Why am I having emotions that I had never wanted in the first place?' Being with the ningens made me prefer solitude to company far more than I ever had. The kitsune is growing weak with the ningens, I could tell. But... being with the hanyou... gives me these feelings... she drives me crazy with that smile of hers, the one that's haunted me ever since she left Makai, all those years ago.
I saw her on her bed, holding back tears. She thought crying is a weakness. Well, I had to agree with her on that. I know I've never done it. She thinks about her demon heritage, wondering why she is a hanyou, all the while looking out the window. A wind blew in her room, making her shiver, but still, she waits for me. 'The determined little hawk,' I thought with a smirk. Then she thought about me and the kitsune... wait, she's blushing. She sits up, trying to sort out her confused feelings for both of us. She doesn't know who to like more. She thought about what that perky baka ferry girl said about the kitsune and her. Her blush deepens, and I instantly knew who she prefers. She jumps on her bed, laughing and saying out loud that she likes the kitsune.
'Hn. Just what I suspected. Who would want a youkai like me?' I thought, subconsciously dropping down a few branches, almost visible for her, but not quite. Fortunately, she wasn't looking at the window, but talking on what the kitsune and she said was a "telephone" or something like that, some ningen way to communicate with each other. After she invited the kitsune to her home, she looked my way. I jumped up a couple of branches so she wouldn't catch sight of me. She looked out the window and sighed, then left the room, giving me more time to think.
After a while, she returned to her room, this time with the kitsune. She shut the door and immediately stumbled over the admittance that she liked him. She blushed darkly, thinking that it was a mistake to have said that, and he didn't like her that way. But the kitsune smiled, and said that he liked her from the first moment they had met. She was so happy that not only had she embraced him, but kissed him! I suddenly clenched my fists, about to storm in and punch the kitsune off the face of Ningenkai. But...he was making her happy...so I was satisfied. 'As long as she's happy...'
Later, the hanyou jumped into bed and the kitsune walked somewhere to retrieve something, but stopped when she asked him to sleep with her. He then got on the bed and put his arms around her and started tickling her. She laughed but said, "Stop that, Kitsune, or I'll change my mind and push you off this bed."
He laughed in response. "You sound like Hiei."
She replied smartly, "Yeah, well, just goes to show ya that I've been around him a lot."
'Hn.' I thought. I remembered earlier that day, when they left the ningen no baka's home. They were...happy together. I had felt some jealousy, but hid it just as it came. I would not come in between my only two friends.
I looked at their sleeping forms before I left.
