Kuwabara, Yusuke, Kurama, and Hiei are sitting at a table (in that order) in front of a stage at a karaoke bar, waiting for the next act to come on. (A/N: Don't ask me how they got Hiei into a karaoke bar...) Yusuke is leaning back in his chair, feet on the table and hands clasped behind his head. Kuwabara is eating a burger, and Kurama is drinking a coke. Hiei looks bored and perfectly fed-up with the whole thing. Three girls walk onto the stage, and Kuwabara, Yusuke, and Kurama cheer loudly around the opening applause.
Botan, Yukina, and Keiko (also in that order ^.~) walk up to three microphones set close together across the stage. Yukina is blushing and smiling shyly, but the other two girls are exchanging mischievous looks and giggling. The ice maiden meets Hiei's eyes apprehensively, and he grins a little at her. She smiles back, her timid nature retreating a little as the music comes on.
There's a single drumbeat, and the trio begin a harmonious humming opening. Botan, however, begins the song moments later in a surprisingly seductive alto-ish voice -
"When you hear us say yes, sometimes it means no
We'll tell you to
stop, when we want you to go
I know that we're different, but we're all the
same
It's all in the games that we play..."
She has a goofy smile on her face that she can't seem to wipe off, and Kurama finds himself smiling in turn. Yukina, voice at first quite but quickly growing strong, sings the second, Botan and Keiko's smiles catching on -
"Now if you wanna please me don't take it so far
You think its gonna be
easy but you're tryin' too hard
Gotta know how to treat me, if you know what
I mean
It's still the devil and angel I'm caught between..."
(A/N: I know, there's not a slightest bit of devil in Yukina, but Kuwabara just tries so hard all the time to win her over...)
Kuwabara, Yusuke, and Kurama only have time for little frowns before the girls hit the chorus with head-on bravado -
"You don't get it, don't see it, don't know what I want-"
The boys
begin to feel distinctly uneasy.
"Don't know how I'm feelin' you got me
all wrong boy
So don't you forget it, you'll never get inside
A girl's
mind..."
Yusuke's chair flips over, Kuwabara's burger drops to the table (his mouth still open...ew), and Kurama's mouthful of soda goes flying across the table. Hiei gets a small smirk on his face. As Yusuke's head appears over the table, Keiko locks eyes with him and begins the next verse -
"So if you heard what I'm sayin', you'll be thinking it through
You
won't do what you want, but what I want you to do-"
She points at Yusuke,
who pauses in rightening his chair to gulp.
"Will you figure me out or
misunderstand
'Cause I really want you to know who I am..."
Keiko smiles reassuringly at him and winks. Yusuke, along with Kuwabara and Kurama, however, is blushing at the attention. Hiei, on the other hand, is clearly beginning to enjoy the tongue-lashing the other are getting and is actually smiling (A/N: O.o I know, play along with me here...) and nodding his head in time to the music.
"You don't get it, don't see it, don't know what I want-"
The three
boys glare at Hiei, who is thoroughly ignoring them.
"Don't know how I'm
feelin' you got me all wrong boy
So don't you forget it, you'll never get
inside
A girl's mind ..."
"If you only knew what I feel for you-"
Yukina looks into Hiei's
eyes, getting his attention, and smiles as Keiko and Botan begin singing a
1930's rendition of echoing her voice for the bridge.
"If you'd only see
what you mean to me
If you'd only hear how much I care
You'd know what's
goin' on in my head..."
The lingering note is sharp and hard, making the
boys' eyes widen. They didn't know Yukina could sing like that. The boys
however, snicker at Hiei, who is now blushing.
"You don't get it, don't see it, don't know what I want-"
Yusuke's
eyes suddenly shoot up, and leans over and whispers in first Kuwabara's, then
Kurama's, ear.
"Don't know how I'm feelin' you got me all wrong
boy-"
The two laugh and nod, and Kurama repeats it to Hiei, who stares at
him blankly. Kurama sweat-drops and shakes his head.
"So don't you forget
it, you'll never get inside-"
The girls look at each other uneasily and
shrug.
"A girl's mind..."
Even as the chorus starts again, Yusuke nods, and the three break out head-and-shoulder bobbing, snapping their fingers in time to the beat and trying hard not to laugh. Hiei stares at them, and Kurama nudges him, but he shakes his head and turns to face the aisle, pointedly ignoring them.
"You don't get it, don't see it, don't know what I want-"
Keiko's
eyes get livid with embarrassment and annoyance, as do Botan's, but when Yusuke
sticks his tongue out at them, they are forced to smile and shake their
heads.
"Don't know how I'm feelin' you got me all wrong boy
So don't
you forget it, you'll never get inside
A girl's mind."
Awww, isn't that cute? It's amazing - I thought of this the second time I listened to this song. This is my first songfic I've actually written down, let alone publish...maybe I'll do more in the future - I've got some really neat ones.
