A/N: I thought that since I felt so sad about my former teacher's death, I should write something other than "Funeral" to calm myself up a bit. This is inspired by some of the talking/writing that my friend, bleeding darkness dragon, and I did. I hope you enjoy it!

Makai And Peanuts?
Kurama looked up from his homework and shifted his gaze to the window. It was five in the afternoon and Hiei, his now current boyfriend, was nowhere to be found. Normally, the little demon would barge in on him doing his homework, demand sweet snow in his best polite voice, and after finishing it he would make out with the patient redhead.
However, today he was not there. Kurama got up from his chair and stormed over to the window. He looked for any sign of Hiei, but found none. After looking for ten minutes, he convinced himself to be tolerant and simply finish his homework. Hiei would come soon, he was certain.
Having finished dinner, the redhead walked to his room and laid on his bed. It felt very relaxing, but the thought of Hiei not showing up made him gloomy and enraged.
"Damn it, Hiei. Where in the three worlds are you?" And as if by some sort of miracle or pure coincidence, a black blur entered his room, stopping only inches away from Kurama's face.
"Hiei! You came!" Kurama jumped from his bed and hugged Hiei.
"Hn. Let go, you're going to kill me!" Kurama nodded, unbeknownst to Hiei, and released the demon in his arms.
"May I ask why you came so late?" Kurama questioned.
Hiei took off his boots and cloak, exposing bare feet and a muscular chest. "The bionic bitch made us work extra time, that's why! Lousy woman!" Hiei muttered, but clearly enough for Kurama to understand every word.
The redhead cocked his head and pondered a thought that he had been wondering about since he met Hiei for the first time. "Love, does she pay you?"
Hiei nodded a yes to his question.
"May I ask what you do with your pay?"
Ruby eyes looked at Kurama, scanning the redhead. "I eat it and sometimes buy stuff… Why?"
Kurama nodded with his chin on his palm. "Interesting. You eat your money? So… What is the current currency in Makai?"
Hiei picked up his cloak from the floor. He dug around the many pockets he had until he found what he was searching for. "This," he said as he tossed a tiny object at Kurama.
The green-eyed teen caught the object and inspected it. Within his mind, he had first suspected the currency to be jewels. The second thought had been a bit more macabre. However, he never expected this of all things.
He certainly wouldn't need treasure to become rich in Makai at all. "This is the current currency in all of Makai?"
The raven-haired demon nodded. "What's wrong? Why do you look as if you're anime sweat dropping right now?"
Kurama calmed himself down before he broke out into a laughing fit. "Mukuro pays you in peanuts?"
"…"
"How the hell did that become the currency?"
Hiei eyed Kurama with a ineffective death glare. "Apparently someone stole all the treasure and old currency in the Makai, making it impossible for any of the others to pay with it!"
Kurama paled. "Um… You mean me, right?"
"Who else?"
Kurama could see that a make out session or sex would not take place that night at all. He knew he could do only one thing. "… Hiei, would you like some sweet snow?"
Needless to say the argument was forgotten until Hiei noticed the bits of peanuts in his ice cream. That left Kurama with the only technique he had left, and unfortunately it wasn't his sexy body.
"Look! A flying bird!"
Hiei turned around and saw nothing. Kurama took that chance to run the hell out of there, departing from the still confused demon.
End.
A/N: Yeah, that cheered me up a bit. Thanks for reading! And special thanks to Brokenshardsofmyheart99 for doing all the beta work, and to BDD for making this possible!
