Pairing: Hiei x Sha (sorry there’s another one of these. This situation just called for theirs)

Lessons in Life

Hiei took a deep breath, staring at the stone door in front of him. No other choice. It’s the only way to get it back. Steeling himself, he knocked on the stone barrier.
“Enter,” the female voice answered from the other side. One that now made his skin crawl.
He pushed aside the barrier and entered her chambers. A place he hadn’t been for months now. He would have rather stayed away, had it not been for his last remaining item. He looked at the woman in front of him, who was giving a smile of satisfaction.
“I knew your fantasy wouldn’t last. Took six months, but look where you return.”
He rolled his eyes. “Don’t get your hopes up Mukuro. I wouldn’t continue to wear this ring if the plans hadn’t worked out. You know what I’m here for.”
Her amused gaze turned to one of confusion. “I do not know. It could be a multitude of reasons. A nice conversation, a favor,” her smile returned, “or self satisfaction, even.”
“I’m well satiated these days in that area.” He crossed his arms, mostly to keep them away from his sword. “You still wear it. I know you do.”
“I’m afraid I don’t know what you’re talking—”
He slammed a fist into the doorway, causing her to jump slightly. “God damn it, I’m sick of your games! My stone, I’m here to collect it.” He narrowed his eyes. “Then I’ll never have to cast my gaze upon you again.”
Reluctantly, she reached into her clothing, pulling the hiruiseki stone out of them. “This is it then.”
“What are you talking about?” He gradually entered her chambers, eyeing her warily.
“The idea and hope that you’d ever come back.” She sadly removed the stone, gazing at it. “I didn’t know you went through with marrying this new woman. It just seemed so sudden, and unexpected of you.”
Hiei let a harsh breath from his nose. “Even so, I can’t believe you held on to such hope. Did you not see how you treated me over those two years? A soldier in your army. That was it, professionally and publicly. Behind these doors and in private, it wasn’t anything differ—”
“That isn’t true!” She stood, clenching the stone in her fist. “You were treated differently, above anyone else that still works in this domain. Given access to these chambers. What do you think I thought you as, to give you such things?”
“A soldier with benefits. If the benefits were even dealt out. I wasn’t finished speaking, either. Behind these doors, you’d give me the cold shoulder. A pitiful excuse of an intimate life. Nothing more.” His gaze grew cold. “When I left, I considered being alone again for a long time. I wasn’t frustrated or confused when alone, and I damn well wasn’t unsatisfied with what I could do for myself. And yet… the fates favored me that day. I still don’t know why, and I still question it. I found the woman who is truly my other half, the one that completes the hellhole I called life.” He crossed his arms once more. “I wasn’t going to let that go so easily.”
Mukuro glared. “And yet you’d cast aside everything I had done for you?”
He couldn’t help himself; he actually laughed at her outburst. “What did you do for me apart from keep me alive? You gave my executioner a second chance as well. You gave me no sexual satisfaction, and you gave me nothing that could be considered the least bit compassionate, let alone loving. Isn’t that what our situation was supposed to call for?”
She couldn’t retort at all. Nothing else came to mind. “Two weeks, over two years.”
He rolled his eyes. “Get over it. I’m sure there’s some other soldier in your ranks that you can take to your bed, and treat just as equally as a dog.” He mulled over what he said. “Hell I have a dog now, and I don’t even treat the beast with such a lack of compassion. And I sure as hell won’t teach my coming son the same.”
This made her attention snap back to reality. “She’s… pregnant?”
“Two months in.”
“How can that be? You’d have to want it for it to work.” She got her answer by his look. “You actually… wanted offspring?”
“Look at how old I am, of course I did. It’s long past the time I could have started. Another thing that I am able to do in my current situation.”
She took a last look at the stone. “So that’s it then. Your life is pretty much complete.”
He narrowed his eyes. “Pretty much?”
She held the stone out for him, giving a pained smile. “This should belong to the one you love, so says the lore of the hiruiseki stones. That, or to the offspring they were shed for. This does not belong in my possession any longer.”
He took it, welcoming its presence he had long since forgotten. “I thank you for not putting up a rougher fight.”
“I can see when I am bested.” Her smile grew weaker. “I was not bred or raised to understand love, or the desire to mate and reproduce. This woman of yours… she is better suited for you than I ever was. If she could teach you and give you what I could not in such a short time, she is the one deserving of your mother’s stone.”
Nodding, he moved to turn around, stopping in the doorway before leaving completely. “You will find another chance. Someday. Just as I was taught, you will learn what love really is, one day.” With that, he left without another word, leaving her behind one final time.

Hours later, well into the night, he held on fast to his wife, running a thumb over her bared and slightly protruding belly. Sha hadn’t started showing completely; more-so it just looked like her already slight noticeable pudge was growing. “I actually have something for you.”
“Mm, no more dirty things tonight Shinamai…”
“Don’t forget, I don’t know many dracish words.”
She laughed softly. “It’s an endearment. The feminine version of love, though when used as a noun. Calling someone Love, for a female, is Shinamai.”
“What about males?”
“Shiname.”
“And how would one say ‘I love you’?”
“Zai’ito, to which the response would also be zai’itota, or ‘I love you too’.”
“Then, zai’ito, Shiname.” He nuzzled her neck, smiling slightly at the feel of his mark resting there.
“Ha, that wasn’t in the least bit sneaky.” She snuggled up against his naked flesh as close as she could. “Da, zai’itota, ion’mio.”
He frowned. “Now that’s not fair, I don’t know what you said.”
“Nothing you need to learn right away. So what is this thing you have for me? And if you make it dirty I swear you’ll regret it.”
He heard the playfulness edged in her threat. “It’s not this time, I swear.” He sat up and reached around in the dark for the drawer to the table on his side, managing to smack it hard into a corner. “Ah, damn it! Here we go.” He felt around for the gem, and carefully held it in his grasp. “Though this might work better in the light.”
She fumbled around on her side, turning on the light. When she turned around, he held the stone out to her. “Is that what I think it is?”
“I had to go see her today. Just to get this back.” He put the chain around her neck, moving back to see how it looked between her unclothed breasts. “My mother shed that when I was born. The hiruiseki stones are to go to the offspring, when they are old enough. Since I’m a special case, I’m giving it to you.”
“I don’t know what to say…” She held it up, looking at it in the light. “It’s beautiful…”
And much better looking on you, he wanted to say, but bit it back. “How do you say, ‘My life is complete with you’?”
Curious, she furrowed her brow. “Xia’mio ahn shetzae’ne ito. Why do you ask?”
“Well excuse me for the atrocious accent, but xia’mio ahn shetzae’ne ito; zai’ito, Shakaku.”
Tears stung her eyes as she let out a laugh, around a small lump starting in her throat. “It is atrocious, but it will come with time. Di’shime will teach you what you want to learn.”
“Di’shime?”
“It means ‘your dragon’. Di is dragon, in dracish. Shime is yours, and mio is my.”
He grinned. “Then I have a new pet name for you, other than Shiname. Di’mio works just as well.”
“It’s more a possessive thing, used with mates. When the male is a bit domineering. Not rough or mean, nothing like that. Just when the female should feel protected by her mate.” She flicked a smile. “Or when she should feel like a submissive, doing what her master says.”
“Di’mio works perfect then for what I have in mind now.”
“I told you to not make it dirty!”
“Well, I can’t help it.” He pinned her down to the bed, careful not to put weight on her belly. “I’m a male, for one. And two… ah I can’t be bothered to explain myself.” He bit down on the mark on her neck, causing her to gasp and twitch. In whatever language we speak, you will always be what completes me.
