Kurama felt incredibly comfortable and warm. A hand was stroking his hair tenderly, just like his mother. He sighed contentedly; he never wanted it to end.

 

Kaasan…? He thought dazedly. No…his Kaasan already died. She can’t be here with him, or can she?

 

It suddenly dawned on him that someone was holding his hand, and he could here faint snoring beside him. His emerald eyes snapped open in alarm, and Hiei’s warm ki flooded his senses.

 

Green eyes widened with shock at the sight of his best friend sleeping beside his bed, his head leaning on his hand. Kurama’s breath caught at the innocence the fire demon was showing. The intensity of his crimson eyes closed in slumber.

 

Without thinking, the youko’s hand touched Hiei’s petal-soft cheek. Kurama allowed his love to flow through his features. His emerald eyes glowing and a loving smile on his lips.

 

Hiei’s eyes suddenly fluttered open, revealing his crimson orbs. “K’rama?” He uttered, his voice husky from sleep. He locked eyes with the fox and saw love and desire in its green pools, mirroring his own.

 

Kurama tore his eyes away from his and took his hand away. He bent his head down. Letting his red mane curtain around his face. “What are you doing here, Hiei?” He asked softly.

 

Hiei didn’t say anything.

 

Kurama looked up and turned to the youkai. “I asked. What are you doing here?”

 

But still, the half-koorime remained silent.

 

“Dammit, Hiei!!” Kurama exploded. “Why are you doing this to me? For three years you left me, nobody ever heard a word from you. You never knew how worried I was! Every time I hear a tap on the window, I run to see if it was you. But you were never there…”

 

Kurama continued. “That night, that night that I told you I loved you. I though you were going to return my feelings, but you didn’t, instead, you leave me and then come back just when things were normal in my life.” He closed his eyes as he let the tears fall.

 

“Why, Hiei?”

 

Hiei was speechless; he never knew Kurama felt this way. He never knew that he was hurting the only creature that was dearest to him. He gathered the sobbing youko into his arms. “I’m sorry…” He whispered. “I never knew you felt this way.”

 

Kurama’s sobs suddenly stopped; he shoved Hiei away from him and slapped him across the face. Hiei’s eyes widened, he looked like he was a deer caught in the headlights of an oncoming car.

 

“Get out.”

 

His mouth slightly ajar, Hiei managed to choke out. “Naze…Kurama…?”

 

“I said, Get out! Get out of my room. Get out of this world. Get out of my life!!” Kurama yelled angrily. “This is too much, Hiei. I don’t want this anymore. Now, get out before I kill you!!” He lied down on the bed and turned his back to Hiei.

 

He felt Hiei rise from the bed and the window opening. A gust of wind entered the room as a sign of Hiei’s departure. He heard something fall on the floor with a soft ‘click’ and he stood up to see what it was. His eyes filled up with tears as his eyes focused on an object sitting on the floor.

 

A black tear gem.
