Summary: "You gave up that life, remember? To be with me," Keiko told him matter-of-factly. He still stared at her, shocked. "I gave up the Spirit Detective stuff, not the people… not my friends." YusxKei, Maybe shonen ai later

Chapter One

Keiko was woken up by the mutterings of her boyfriend. He was just talking in his sleep again.

"Kuwabara… damnit, you idiot… this is so STUPID…"

She smiled and laughed a bit, Yusuke was reliving his Spirit Detective days. She was so glad he had left that life behind him. Keiko knew he missed it, missed the fighting, the adventure, the life-or-death-save-the-world moments. To be honest, she didn't really care. He was safe. He was hers. All hers, no one else's.

The next morning, Yusuke woke up to the phone ringing. He answered and Kurama's voice filled his ears, "Hello Yusuke. I'm arranging a get together tomorrow at Genkai's temple. Would you and Keiko be able to come?"

"I'd love to Kurama! Keiko isn't up yet though, so I can't say whether or not she'll be there."

Kurama laughed, "We'll be glad to see you with or without her. I'll see you tomorrow then," and with that they said their goodbyes. Yusuke, now in a very good mood, went to the kitchen to make breakfast for the two of them before Keiko had to leave for school and he for work. He'd used some of the money from his estate in Makai to start a ramen shop, it had done quiet well over the last 2 years. He wasn't rolling in riches, but he made a good enough living to support himself and Keiko. He even helped her a bit with her tuition for college when she needed it, though she usually got most of it covered with scholarships. Keiko came down just as he finished. Noticing he was in a good mood she smiled, until he told her why.

"No," she told him.

"Ok, I'll let them know you were busy."

"No, I don't want you to go either." He paused, fork stopping half-way to his mouth, and gave her a surprised look.

"Keiko…?" he said, silently asking if everything was alright.

"You gave up that life, remember? To be with me," she told him matter-of-factly. He still stared at her, shocked. It was a few moments before he got his wits back enough to put together an answer.

"Keiko, I gave up the Spirit Detective stuff, not the people… not my friends."

"What if this is a ruse, they get you there then turns out Koenma has a case for you. Isn't this a little sudden?"

Yusuke laughed, "First off, that woudn't be an absolutely horrible thing. Second, Koenma never tricked me into cases, he'd send Botan. She'd outright tell me it was a case…What's gotten into you?"

Her face darkened but finally, ignoring the question, said, "Fine, I'll go."
