I can't remember why we fell apart From something that was so meant to be, yeah...
[Hiei and Kurama remember all the good times with each other, now separated by the barrier between the worlds. Neither can remember why Hiei left. All they remember is that they got into an argument, and that both had said things that they regret.]
Forever was the promise in our hearts Now, more and more I wonder where you are
[Kurama remembers giving himself to Hiei fully, promising to love the fire demon forever. He wonders where Hiei is. Hiei bitterly remembers Kurama's promise to him. He wonders how Kurama is doing.]
Do I ever cross your mind, anytime? Do you ever wake up reaching out for me?
[Hiei practices with his katana, fighting his memories desperately. Flash to Hiei sleeping fitfully. He suddenly jerks awake, crying out Kurama's name in the dark, reaching out as if to stop him from leaving.]
Do I ever cross your mind anytime? I miss you...
[Kurama goes to class, but he can't concentrate. The only thing he can think about is Hiei. Sorrow fills his heart as he realizes that it's been a year since Hiei left. He knows that his love will never return.]
Still have your picture in a frame Hear your footsteps down the hall
[Kurama looks at the scowling picture of Hiei by his bed, remembering with a smile how much the fire demon hated having his picture taken. He turns as he hears a sound by the window, hope filling his desolate face. There is no one there. A tear slides down Kurama's face.]
I swear I hear your voice, driving me insane How I wish that you would call To say
[Hiei turns as he hears a familiar laugh. No one is there. The fire demon fights back tears as he realizes how much he misses that laugh, that voice. He wishes he could go back, but knows that what he said to Kurama is unforgivable. He whispers three words softly, almost to himself, a forlorn tear sliding down his cheek.]
[Kurama thinks about Hiei constantly, not being able to concentrate on anything else. At night he dreams about it. About their fight, waking up reaching out and calling Hiei's name.]
Do I ever cross your mind, anytime? I miss you...
[Hiei practices, blurring faster and faster as he tries desperately to forget his harsh words and the fox's hurt look. Finally he falls to his knees, unable to hold his tears back anymore. He misses Kurama so badly...]
I miss you...
[Kurama cries himself to sleep, remembering his angry words, him hitting Hiei, Hiei leaving. He misses his love so badly...]
[Unable to stand his loneliness anymore, Hiei heads to the Ningenkai. He knows that he'll die if Kurama can't forgive him.]
(No more) loneliness and heartache...
[Kurama wishes he could apologize to Hiei and make things right. He wonders if Hiei would accept it. On a whim, he leaves the window open, as he did the first few months Hiei was gone.]
(No more) crying myself to sleep...
[Hiei watches through Kurama's window as the fox cries himself to sleep, knowing that he is the cause of Kurama's sorrow. He resolves himself and enters through the open window.]
(Don't want no more) wondering about tomorrow... Won't you come back to me? Come back to me, oh... Do I ever cross your mind, anytime? Do you ever wake up reaching out for me?
[Kurama dreams about Hiei, about him coming back. Even while he's dreaming, he knows it's not going to happen. He wakes up, calling for Hiei again, crying because he knows the fire demon isn't there.]
[Hiei flinches as Kurama wakes, calling his name desperately. He makes his presence known, waiting for the axe to fall.]
[Kurama stares as he sees Hiei by his bed, wondering if it's just another dream. Then he sees the tears on Hiei's cheeks and knows that it's not. Gently, he touches Hiei's face, wiping tears away. As the fire demon looks up at him, Kurama sees in his ruby red orbs how much he has suffered.]
Do I ever cross your mind anytime I miss you...
[Hiei pulls away, averting his eyes and mumbling an apology. Silence reigns for a moment. Finally the fire demon says those three words. I miss you... He turns away, thinking sorrowfully that Kurama hates him.]
[Kurama draws Hiei into a tight embrace, and repeats the words back to the fire demon, meaning them will all his heart. I miss you... Tears wet his face as he apologizes as well.]
[Hiei turns toward him and looks at the fox incredulously, shocked that someone would bother with him after he was such an asshole. He says so. Kurama says three different words and hugs him fiercely, not ever wanting to let go. Hiei returns the words and the hug. They cling to each other with the need to be close. The scene fades as Kurama kisses Hiei gently.]
