It was a cold evening. Too cold. It was her birthday. Their birthday.

Yukina had known about her birthday and had never celebrated it before. Hiei too knew about his birthday and had clearly hated it. He hated ningen celebrations and customs. But he wouldn't miss his sister's party for his life.

"Aww, Kurama, thank you so much for the gift!!" Yukina squealed. Hiei wasn't visible, he was hiding in the shadows, but Kurama knew he was there.

"Hn." He quietly said to himself.

"And now, Yukina," Kuwabara said, getting up. "I will always make sure that you are safe, you know that . . ."

"Hn. Yeah right . . .if you can. . ." Hiei mumbled.

"And so . . ." he continued. "Yukina . . ." he said, getting down on his knees and holding one of her hands so their hands were palm to palm, then getting out a small box revealing a diamondish opal ring. "W- Will you m-marry me?"

Yukina dazzled at the ring for a split second and looked up at Kuwabara starry eyed. "Yes!!!" she squealed and jumped in his arms. (A/N: Yeah, right...)

Hiei stood there with the biggest bulging eyes he had ever put on his face. "She didn't-" he mumbled loud enough for a chuckling Kurama to hear. He quietly got up and headed towards where Hiei was hiding.

Kurama kneeled down next to Hiei, who had a sudden headache. Kurama slung his arm around Hiei's shoulder. "You know fate hates you as well, Hiei."

Hiei growled. "This can't be happening...."

"It is."

"Well, I guess as long as she's happy...."

"That's the spirit!!"

"OH, Hiei-san!!" Yukina suddenly said when she saw them in the corner. Hiei did not look up but he grimaced. "Why don't you join us!!!??" she added cheerfully.

Hiei mumbling something what sounded like an apology and left. Yukina blinked. "Aww...this doesn't feel right without Hiei..."
