Ice Demon Allysandra: HEY!

Desperately Wanting

Demon of Darkness Celestria

Past the road to your house

That you never called home

Hiei walked down the main street of Tokyo until he came to a certain light post on a certain street. Kurama's street. He looked three houses down until his ruby eyes saw Kurama's home. He then chuckled to himself at the thought of Youko Kurama calling it "home".

Where they turned out the lights

Though they say you'll never know

Hiei suddenly became serious when he noticed the only light on was the one in the kitchen. He could see the silhouette of Kurama's human mother. With his sensitive youkai hearing, he could make out the slight sobs that escaped her lips. Hiei closed his eyes and allowed a certain memory to return to him.

I remember running through the wet grass

Falling a step behind

Both of us never tiring

Desperately wanting

Both he and Kurama were running through a field. Hiei suddenly slowed as he noticed a certain tree across the field. Kurama stood beside him and smiled as they looked into each other's eyes.

When they pumped out your guts

Filled you full of those pills

Hiei stood watching doctors put tubes in Kurama's arms and chest. Every hour or so, a young nurse would get a barely conscious Kurama to swallow a pill.

You were never quite right

Deserving all the chills

Kurama's body would involuntarily shake and Hiei determined that he might have hypothermia, caused by massive blood loss.

"Hn. Stupid fox. You should have known not to pick that fight," Hiei said noticing that his voice did not have a trace of anger or annoyance in it. With that, he started noticing how different Kurama looked. His skin was pale from the loss of blood that his hair, in fact, looked like silken blood against it. When you could see his eyes, they did not have their normal sparkle. His sensual hands that would occasionally be placed on Hiei's shoulder in encouragement, or warning, were bruised and bandaged due to the tubes.

They say the worst is over

Kicked it over and ran

Hiei pressed his back closer to the wall as he listened in.

"Shuichi, will be just fine, Ms. Minamino. He is breathing better on his own and does not need most of the medicine anymore," the doctor said with a smile.

"Oh! Thank you!" Shiori said, hugging the doctor. Hiei let out a breath he didn't even know he held and allowed a smile to play across his lips.

Then they asked what went wrong

When they turned you on again

They turned you on again

A nurse came running, yelling for the doctor to come quick.

Hiei was once again watching the doctor turn the machines on and put more tubes in his body. Then the memory came back again, with the full force of an unwanted nightmare. But Hiei didn't mind; he enjoyed this memory.

I remember running through the wet grass

Falling a step behind

Both of us never tiring

Desperately wanting

Emerald eyes cascaded down, as Kurama's luscious lips collided with Hiei's. The latter ran his hands through Kurama's strands of ruby silk.

Kick them right in their face

Make them wish they weren't born

Hiei clasped Kurama's hand and whispered,

"Come on kitsune, you will make it through this. Before you know it, you'll be yelling at the doctors for sticking these damned ningen plastic tube things in your arms…"

And if they bring up your name

They'll say you won the war

"…and you know when those ningen witch doctors speak of you to your human mother, they will say that you are alright and that you will make it," Hiei continued in a whisper that sounded as if he was trying to convince himself instead of Kurama. The sting of his black tears caused him to close his eyes and be haunted by a not so cheerful dream.

Baby burst in this world

Never given a chance

Hiei dropped to his knees and ran his hand over the names on the tombstone.

Here lies the body of the combined souls of

Shuichi Minamino and Youko Kurama

Black hirasecki gems fell and bounced off the grass as Hiei cried uncontrollably and screamed the fox's name over and over.

Ruby eyes napped open to reveal that Hiei was only dreaming. He looked at Kurama and notice he was regaining some color and wondered if he had also regained some of his warmth. He decided to check so he gently pressed his lips to Kurama's forehead, cheek, and finally his lips. He smirked as he noticed that he was getting warmer, but still had a ways to go before regaining consciousness. He jumped as his ears were invaded by loud shouts.

"I thought ningen hospitals were supposed to be quiet!" he said walking toward the door.

Then they asked what when wrong

When you never had it right

No you never had it right

"It must have been something you did Shiori! He doesn't seem to have the will to…" Kuwabara's words were cut short as Hiei's fist connected squarely with his jaw, sending him down the corridor into the opposite wall.

"Hn. Baka. I always wanted to do that," Hiei smirked. He looked at Shiori who was now sitting in a chair, sobbing uncontrollably. "He will live, if he knows what's good for him." That brought a smile to her lips nearly as beautiful as Kurama's and Hiei could help but sit next to her and allow his happy memory to return.

I remember running through the wet grass

Falling a step behind

Both of us never tiring

Desperately wanting

Kurama grabbed Hiei's hand and drug him toward the tree. When they arrived, Kurama once again claimed Hiei's lips with his own, wrapping his arms around him to pull Hiei's smaller form closer toward his own.

Oh the letters have dropped off

Though they say you got them all

Hiei moved a strand of Kurama's hair from his forehead and bent to kiss his lips when something caught his eye. A stack of letters sat on the table across the room. He cursed himself at the fact that his curiosity got the better of him. He noticed that they were all from him. Every letter he had ever sent the fox sat on the table and all of them were from him and half of them declared his love for the fox.

"Ah ha! I knew it! He knew the whole time," he said out loud. The door opened and Shiori walked in noticing Hiei's interest in the letters. She said,

"Oh, you found them. Shuichi never read one of those. He doesn't even know they exist. I was going to give them all to him after he woke up. He deserves to know and I should have never keep them from him." Hiei's eyes widened with ever word she said; not with anger, but shock and surprise.

"He doesn't know! He did all that on his own feelings!"

Finally figured out some things you'll never know

"Oh, Kurama, how could you love me? I though you acted just to please me. You probably will never know now that I…love…you, Kurama."

Take back your life and let me inside

We'll find the door, if you care, if you care to anymore

Hiei traced a finger from Kurama's temple, along his cheekbone, and cross his luscious lips, which caused a slight sigh on Kurama's part, then he clasped Kurama's hand again.

"Please, itooshi, now you have a reason to live. To find out how much I really do love you!" Hiei whispered, feeling the black tears well up again. "I will help you live as much as I possibly can, I promise! You are my fox. Besides, you owe me for making me cry!" He closed his eyes and allowed the memory to return again.

I remember running through the wet grass

Falling a step behind

Both of us never tiring

Desperately wanting

Kurama's smile always warmed Hiei and caused both heat and ice water to run through his veins. It was Hiei's turn to kiss Kurama…

The memory was cut short as Hiei felt a squeeze on his hand. Ruby met emerald as he looked into Kurama's eyes, now beginning to well with tears.

"Oh, Hiei, I understand now why you didn't kill me that day I first kissed you! Ai shiteru Hi…" Kurama started.

"Kurama?"

"Yes Hiei?"

"Shut-up Baka Kitsune, you talk way too much!" Hiei bent down and kissed Kurama passionately.
