Note: I do not own any of these characters not the anime. I wish I did though…

This song is by Sum 41, called, "Slipping away"

As he looked down at the grave, tears fell from his eyes. It was covered in beautiful red roses, just the way the young boy would of liked it. It was just a few weeks ago, that the one he loved passed away… His name was Kurama, and he was the sweetest boy he had ever known. Kurama was the one who broke threw his heart, and made him realize what love really was. He was only 17…. How could he die?

Hiei closed his eyes, remembering what happened. "Hiei, please, you must stop! Your going to kill yourself..."

"No Kurama… I can kill him. I know I can. Just a little longer…" Hiei had unleashed his Dragon Of Darkness Flame on Taguru, who had some how managed to come back. He was helping out the person who they where fighting at the time.

The next thing Hiei knew, Kurama grabbed his hand, "HIEI!" As he looked at his lovers face, he pulled back the Dragon Of Darkness Flame, but it had taken Kurama's energy. As all the darkness disappeared, Kurama and Hiei both fell forward into each others arms. Hiei's eyes sight got blurry as he looked at Kurama, "I….Love….You…" Was all he could get out. He remembered Kurama smiling and nodding, whispering it back. Hiei then lost consesness, and when he awoke, Yuske had told him Kurama had died saving Hiei's life. Taguru had went to do a final blast at 100 when Kurama used what life he had left to use his Rose Whip, slicing Takuru in half.

Hiei opened his eyes as he started to sing one last song to his loved one…

"I'm slipping….Away

In every…Way"

As it started to rain, Hiei looked at the grave

"I cant stay awake…

(And I don't know why)"

He could some how hear Kurama singing with him.

"I'm slipping away

(And I don't know why)"

Hiei threw a rose at his grave. He then turned around and started back to his car, singing the last words of the song.

"Im trying to make it, threw each day.

Im falling apart now, in every way.

Im finding it harder to get by.

There's a hole in my heart and I don't know why.

Now I've come to realize…

I'm slipping away…."

As he walked threw the mud, into his black car, he looked back at the grave, "I'm slipping away Kurama…" He whispered, whipping the tears away from his check, getting into his car and driving off.
