Happy Birthday, Shihira!, a yu yu hakusho fanfic

SIM: Ok, so this is sort of a side chapter for Safe House/ So Much For Retirement in honor of Shihira's birthday. It's got nothing to do with the plot of the sequel or really anything else…

Ayaka: SIM owns nothing

SIM: Thank you… enjoy!

Shihira awoke to sun streaming in through her pink curtains. She groaned and put her pink pillow over her head to block out the sun while cuddling her Nny and Zim plushies closer. She had just snuggled in to go back to sleep when a she heard a knock on her door.

"What?" She asked sleepily.

"It's me. Can I come in?" Datenshi called from the other side. Shihira sat up immediately, smoothing her hair back.

"Go ahead." She called back. Datenshi pushed the door open and stepped into the pink room with a smile. He was carrying a tray of waffles, bacon, and eggs with a cup of orange juice and a daffodil in a small vase of water.

"Morning sleeping beauty. I just thought I'd bring you breakfast in bed today." He said, setting the tray on her lap and giving her a kiss.

"Awwww, that's so sweet! What's the occasion?" she asked with a smile.

"You honestly don't remember?" Datenshi asked, sitting down next to her on her bed.

"Should I?" Shihira asked, cocking her head to the side in confusion.

"Uhh… yeah actually. Look at the calendar." He replied pointing at her Invader Zim calendar. The date, February 9th, was circled half a dozen times in bright red marker, "It is your birthday." A smile cracked across Shihira's face and she squealed.

"Oh my gosh, I totally forgot!" Datenshi simply chuckled and kissed her forehead.

"Just one thing I like about you. You can be so ditsy. It's cute." She giggled and kissed him again, "Now, I'm going to leave you to get dressed. When you're done, come downstairs. We've got the whole day planned out for you." He said getting up and leaving the room.

What did I do to deserve a guy like him? She thought to herself as she finished her breakfast and rushed to her closet to pick out the perfect outfit.

JJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJ

Shihira came down the stairs dressed in a black and pink plaid skirt that had safety pins and buckles all over it, a pink, black, and white corset, and black combat boots with pink laces. Her hair was up in a messy bun and the daffodil Datenshi brought her that morning was twisted into it. She was wearing black eyeliner, mascara, pink eye shadow, and pink lipstick. She danced her way into the kitchen and sat down at the island counter.

"Morning chica! Feliz cumpleanos!" Ami exclaimed with a smile giving her a one armed hug as she sat down next to her.

"You look beautiful." Datenshi whispered to her from her other side. Ami gave her a knowing look and went over to the fridge.

"So what's on the agenda for today?" Shihira asked.

"Well, first Keiko, Yukina, Ami and Hikari are going to pamper you while the boys get the party set up. I'm making the food for the party tonight and Shizuru, and Genkai are watching the little ones." Aya said while stirring something that smelled really good on the stove. Shihira squealed and Ami giggled at her.

"Ok, come on! Let's go!" Ami said, motioning her upstairs. Shihira ran past her upstairs.

"Well she's excited." Aya mumbled, checking the cake in the oven.

HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

"So how are things going with you and Datenshi?" Ami asked, wiggling her eyebrows suggestively.

"Absolutely, positively, wonderful!" Shihira exclaimed dreamily.

"Good for you. We told you you wouldn't be alone forever." Hikari replied wit ha smile.

"So what do you think? Bubblegum pink… or French tip?" Ami asked, holding up two things of nail polish.

"How about we do black and pink? It would match her outfit today."

"Good idea!"

-That Night, Around 5:00-

"So what's next?" Shihira questioned excitedly.

"Well we were thinking that, in honor of your birthday, we would do some karaoke since you like it so much." Aya replied with a smile.

"YAAAY!!!!"

"So here's how we're going to do this. Everyone's name is on a slip of paper in this hat. I'm going to pull a name and whoever it is gets to sing. Everyone has to sing." Aya explained. "Genkai and Koenma will be the judges and whoever wins gets a prize."

"Ok." Everyone replied, some more excited than others.

"First up is… Ami!" Aya exclaimed. She walked up to the machine and picked her song.

Oh, I, I, I

Everyone in the room applauded and she took a bow.

"Very nice song choice Ami. I'm sure you got Hideki very excited." Aya commented. Everyone giggled, "So next up is… Yusuke!" Yusuke reluctantly went up and picked a song.

Circling your, circling your, circling your head,
Contemplating everything you ever said
Now I see the truth, I got doubt
A different motive in your eyes and now I'm out
See you later
I see your fantasy, you want to make it a reality paved in gold
See inside, inside of our heads (yeah)
Well now that's over
I see your motives inside, decisions to hide

(Fuck!)
Back off I'll take you on
Headstrong to take on anyone
I know that you are wrong
Headstrong we're headstrong
Back off I'll take you on
Headstrong to take on anyone
I know that you are wrong and this is not where you belong
I can't give everything away
I won't give everything away

Conclusions manifest, your first impressions got to be your very best
I see you're full of shit, and that's alright
That's how you play, I guess you'll get through every night
Well now that's over
I see your fantasy, you want to make it a reality paved in gold
See inside, inside of our heads (yeah)
Well now that's over
I see your motives inside, decisions to hide

I know, I know all about,

I know, I know all about
I know, I know all about your motives inside, and your decision to hide

Yusuke stepped off stage with a goofy grin. Everyone clapped, holding in giggles at the truth of the song. Yusuke took a bow.

"Wow Yusuke, could that song be any more relevant?" Aya giggled, stepping back up on stage to pick the next person, "Next is Botan!"

She stepped up on stage, nearly bouncing with excitement and picked her song.

We got a bucket of Corona,
Enough stories to last all night,
About the trials and tribulations,
Of findin' Mr. Right:
Of findin' a good man.

Here's to the liars and the cheaters and the cold mistreaters;
To the Momma's boys who can't make a stand.
Here's to the superficial players;
The "I love ya" too-soon-sayers;
If you hear me girls, raise your hand:
Let's have a toast:
Here's to findin' a good man.

Blind dates an' horror stories;
Pushy gals and fast movers.
Let's dedicate this girl's night out,
To big-talkers; bad losers,
It's so hard findin' a good man.

Julie, I know you want perfection;
Angie, you want a listener.
Lisa, your list is gettin' long,
And girls, you know me:I just want a good kisser.

Here's to findin' a good man.
Here's to findin' a good man

"Amen!" Every girl in the room shouted and lifted their glasses as Botan took a bow.

"Nice job Botan. Next up is Kurama!" Aya exclaimed. He got up and picked a song. As the music started he winked at his wife playfully.

Well you rolled out of bed and stubbed your toe
And I heard you almost cuss
And I fought back the urge to laugh
just listen to you fuss
then you overdid the coffee
couldn't get your hair just right
when I smiled and said good morning
you looked mad enough to fight

Well that's another side of you
That I'm in a love with too

Yeah that mini van is a far cry
from the sports car in your dreams
and that dead end job
is pushin back vacation more it seems
you got soccer at 4:30
And ballet class by 5:00
Then I call you talkin' flirty
You ask have I lost my mind

Well that's another side of you
That I'm in love with too

When you lay down in my arms
let go of all that stress
whisper honey I love you
with your head on my chest
when the world's strongest woman is my lady
when the day is through
Well that's another side of you
that I'm in love with too

If I had to do the things you do
Well I'd just lose my mind
somehow you get em fed and bathed
and settled down by nine
and I hear you down the hallway
as you lay em down to sleep
and they pray the good lord watches over them and you and me

Well that's another side of you
that I'm in love with too
well that's another side of you
that I'm in love with too

Kurama finished and took a bow while everyone gave him a round of applause. Aya walked up on stage and gave him a kiss before turning and grinning like mad at the others. "Next up is Kuwabara." She said and then walked back over to her table to sit in Kurama's lap.

Kuwabara rolled his eyes and picked a song.

Give it to me baby. Uh-huh. Uh-huh.
Give it to me baby. Uh-huh. Uh-huh.
Give it to me baby. Uh-huh. Uh-huh.
And all the girlies say I'm pretty fly
For a white guy.
Uno, dos, tres, cuatro, cinco, cinco, seis.

You know it's kind of hard
Just to get along today.
Our subject isn't cool,
But he fakes it anyway.
He may not have a clue;
And he may not have style.
But everything he lacks
Well he makes up in denial.

So don't debate, a player straight
You know he really doesn't get it anyway.
He's gonna play the field, and keep it real.
For you no way, for you no way.
So if you don't rate, just overcompensate.
At least you'll know you can always go on Ricki Lake.
The world needs wannabe's.
So (Hey! Hey!) do that brand new thing.

Give it to me baby. Uh-huh. Uh-huh.
Give it to me baby. Uh-huh. Uh-huh.
Give it to me baby. Uh-huh. Uh-huh.
And all the girlies say I'm pretty fly
For a white guy.

He needs some cool tunes
Not just any will suffice.
But they didn't have Ice Cube
So he bought Vanilla Ice.
Now cruising in his Pinto,
He sees homies as he pass.
But if he looks twice
They're gonna kick his lily ass.

So don't debate, a player straight
You know he really doesn't get it anyway.
He's gonna play the field, and keep it real.
For you no way, for you no way.
So if you don't rate, just overcompensate.
At least you'll know you can always go on Ricki Lake.
The world loves wannabe's.
So (Hey! Hey!) do that brand new thing

Now he's getting a tattoo.
Yeah he's gettin' ink done.
He asked for a '13',
But they drew a '31'.
Friends say he's trying too hard
And he's not quite hip.
But in his own mind
He's the, he's the dopest trip.

Give it to me baby. Uh-huh. Uh-huh.
Give it to me baby. Uh-huh. Uh-huh.
Give it to me baby. Uh-huh. Uh-huh.
Uno, dos, tres, cuatro, cinco, cinco, seis.

By the time Kuwabara finished, everyone was laughing hysterically. He smirked and took a bow. Everyone applauded him.

"Nice Kuwabara," Aya said, giving him a high five and wiping a tear from her eye, "Next up is Hikari."

Hikari smirked and walked over to choose her song.

I don't give a damn 'bout my reputation
You're living in the past it's a new generation
A girl can do what she wants to do and that's
What I'm gonna do
An' I don't give a damn ' bout my bad reputation

Oh no not me

An' I don't give a damn 'bout my reputation
Never said I wanted to improve my station
An' I'm only doin' good
When I'm havin' fun
An' I don't have to please no one
An' I don't give a damn
'Bout my bad reputation

Oh no, not me
Oh no, not me

I don't give a damn
'Bout my reputation
I've never been afraid of any deviation
An' I don't really care
If ya think I'm strange
I ain't gonna change
An' I'm never gonna care
'Bout my bad reputation

Oh no, not me
Oh no, not me

Pedal boys!

An' I don't give a damn
'Bout my reputation
The world's in trouble
There's no communication
An' everyone can say
What they want to say
It never gets better anyway
So why should I care
'Bout a bad reputation anyway
Oh no, not me
Oh no, not me

I don't give a damn 'bout my bad reputation
You're living in the past
It's a new generation
An' I only feel good
When I got no pain
An' that's how I'm gonna stay
An' I don't give a damn
'Bout my bad reputation

Oh no, not me
Oh no, not
Not me, not me

Everyone clapped and Ami, Aya, and Shihira slapped Hikari high fives as she walked by.

"Next up is Keiko." Aya sighed, still giggling. Keiko got up and went to the stage.

Like a cloud full of rain shouldn't hang in the sky
Ice shouldn't burn or a bumblebee fly
If you feel so happy, then why do you cry?
Oh nothin' bout love makes sense.

Like an ocean liner shouldn't float on the sea
A pearl in an oyster or a circus of fleas
Someone so perfect can't be falling for me.
Oh nothin' bout love makes sense.

Nothin' bout love is less than confusing
You can win when you're losing, stand when you're falling
I can't figure it out.
Nothin' bout love can make an equation nothin' short of amazing
Wish I could explain it
But I don't know how.

The way that we dance, the reason we dream
That big Italian tower, well how does it lean?
Something so strong shouldn't make me this weak
Oh nothin' bout love makes sense.

Like the lights of Las Vegas glowing out on the sand
A jumbo shrimp or a baby grand
How you're touching my heart when you're holding my hand
Oh nothin' bout love makes sense
Oh nothin' bout love makes sense
Oh nothin' bout love, makes sense
No no no, oh it don't make sense

Everyone applauded and Keiko curtseyed with a giggle and skipped back to her spot next to Yusuke.

"Great song Keiko. Next up is Shizuru." Aya said. Shizuru put out her cigarette and went up on stage.

Got my headlights shining
Down an old dirt road
Smoke my cigarettes
I should quit I know

The radio's playing
Old country songs
Someone's leaving, someone's cheating
On and on

I think I might like
The quiet nights
Of this empty life

'Cause someday maybe
Somebody will love me like I need
And someday I won't have to prove
'Cause somebody will see
All my worth but until then
I'll do just fine on my own
With my cigarettes
And this old dirt road

See I left another
Good man tonight
I wonder if he'll miss me
Lord knows I tried

But I think that maybe
The thing that I did wrong
Was put up with his bullshit
For far too long

I think I might like
The quiet nights
Of this empty life

I ain't gonna sleep
I ain't gonna dream
About the things that I used to need
I ain't gonna cry
Or go on living lies
I'm just gonna drive

Everybody clapped and Shizuru bowed before going back to her seat and lighting another cigarette.

"I love that song! Nice choice Shizuru. Next up is Hiei!" Aya exclaimed. Hiei got up and picked a song. (Hikari bribed him -winks-)

I miss the sand on the concrete floor
I miss the way it was before
no one even knew me
your eyes looked right through me
And I'm taking off your clothes
And you bloom like a rose

I can't get away from you

And where the ocean meets the land
Is like the sliding of your hand
Prickles up my skin
And I can feel the changing weather
While alone along that coast
Sense memories of your ghost

I can't get away from you

Deliver me, shut me up
Deliver me
Give into me, Release
Deliver me, deliver me

Through the airport corridors
In magazines in stores
If I see your face once more
Cause you know I can't ignore it
I recognize that pose
When you bloomed like a rose

I can't get away from you

The jeep gets broke on a blown out road and I'm a tourist with a real light load
Will the government hold another month away, missed our places where we always stay
Funny how we always pick these spots
Feeling like a have in the land of have nots, sleeping on cots
Wishing that I had some tater-tots

And there's postcards written
I know I'll never send
The moment is gone and won't come again
I ride with souls who find no peace
Still I look to you to find release

And the travelers return
Through the panic doors
Walking through the airport corridors
Welcome back now from the foreign shores
And I walk alone
And the ghost that I carry is your
Tiger shark is azure blue
I hope the vision you had returns to you

"Yay! Go Third Eye Blind!" Aya exclaimed.

"I didn't know you listened to them…" Hikari said. Hiei just shrugged and walked back to his seat.

"So next up is Hideki!" Aya called out. Hideki got up and picked his song.

Well I'll never forget the first time that I heard
That pretty mouth say that dirty word
And I can't even remember now what she backed my truck into
But she covered her mouth and her face got red
And she just looked so darn cute
That I couldn't even act like I was mad
Yeah I live for little moments like that

Well that's just like last year on my birthday
She lost all track of time and burnt the cake
And every smoke detector in the house was goin' off
And she was just about the cry until I took her in my arms
And I tried not to let her see me laugh
Yeah I live for little moments like that

I know she's not perfect but she tries so hard for me
And I thank God that she isn't 'cause how boring would that be
It's the little imperfections it's the sudden change in plans
When she misreads the directions and we're lost but holdin' hands
Yeah I live for little moments like that

When she's layin' on my shoulder on the sofa in the dark
And about the time she falls asleep so does my right arm
And I want so bad to move it 'cause it's tinglin' and it's numb
But she looks so much like an angel that I don't wanna wake her up
Yeah I live for little moments
When she steals my heart again and doesn't even know it
Yeah I live for little moments like that

Hideki took a bow and went back to his seat. Ami was sitting right next to him with tears in her eyes. He gave her a kiss and sat back down.

"Awwww. That was cute. Next up is Yukina!" Aya announced. Yukina timidly got up and picked a song.

Somethin' in your eyes, makes me wanna lose myself
Makes me wanna lose myself, in your arms
There's somethin' in your voice, makes my heart beat fast
Hope this feeling lasts, the rest of my life

If you knew how lonely my life has been
And how long I've been so alone
And if you knew how I wanted someone to come along
And change my life the way you've done

It feels like home to me, it feels like home to me
It feels like I'm all the way back where I come from
It feels like home to me, it feels like home to me
It feels like I'm all the way back where I belong

A window breaks, down a long, dark street
And a siren wails in the night
But I'm alright, 'cause I have you here with me
And I can almost see, through the dark there is light

Well, if you knew how much this moment means to me
And how long I've waited for your touch
And if you knew how happy you are making me
I never thought that I'd love anyone so much

It feels like home to me, it feels like home to me
It feels like I'm all the way the back where I come from
It feels like home to me, it feels like home to me
It feels like I'm all the way back where I belong
It feels like I'm all the way back where I belong

Yukina curtseyed and went back to her seat next to Kuwabara who gave her a one armed hug, making her giggle.

"That was great Yukina. You were terrific. Next up is Datenshi!" Aya said. Datenshi got up and picked his song.

She said, "I've got to be honest,
You're wasting your time if you're fishin' around here."
And I said, "You must be mistaken,
I'm not foolin', this feelin' is real."
She said, "You've gotta be crazy!
What do you take me for? Some kinda of easy mark?"

"You've got wits,
You've got looks,
You've got passion,
But I swear that you've got me all wrong."

All wrong
All wrong
But you've got me

I'll be true, I'll be useful, I'll be cavalier,
I'll be yours my dear
And I'll belong to you
If you just let me through

This is easy as lovers go.
So don't complicate it by hesitating.
This is wonderful as loving goes.
This is tailor made,
What's the sense in waiting?

I said, "I've got to be honest,
I've been waiting for you all of my life."
For so long I thought I was asylum bound,
But just seeing you makes me think twice.
And being with you here makes me sane.
I fear I'll go crazy if you leave my side.

"You've got wits,
You've got looks,
You've got passion,
But are you brave enough to leave with me tonight?"

Tonight
Tonight
You've got me

I'll be true, I'll be useful, I'll be cavalier,
I'll be yours my dear
I'll belong to you
If you just let me through

This is easy as lovers go. So don't complicate it by hesitating.
This is wonderful as loving goes.
This is tailor made, what's the sense in waiting?

Datenshi finished and took a bow while everybody applauded. He went back to his seat next to Shihira and was immediately tackle-kissed by his squealing girlfriend.

"Awww. You guys are so cute together!" Aya cooed from the stage. "Anyways, I'm next… Oh joy and rapture…" She sighed and walked over to pick her song.

Can't you see?
There's a feeling that's come over me
Close my eyes
You're the only one that leaves me completely breathless

No need to wonder why
Sometimes a gift like this you can't deny

'Cause I wanted to fly,
so you gave me your wings
And time held its breath so I could see, yeah
And you set me free

There's a will
There's a way
Sometimes words just can't explain
This is real
I'm afraid
I guess this time there's just no hiding, fighting
You make me restless

You're in my heart
The only light that shines
there in the dark

'Cause I wanted to fly,
so you gave me your wings
And time held its breath so I could see, yeah
And you set me free

When I was alone
You came around
When I was down
You pulled me through
And there's nothing that
I wouldn't do for you

'Cause I wanted to fly,
so you gave me your wings
And time held its breath so I could see, yeah
And you set me free

She finished and everybody clapped.

"Thanks. So that leaves you Shihira. Go crazy." Aya stated.

"Yay!!!" She exclaimed, jumping up and skipping over to the machine. She picked her song and got ready.

Turn her over
A candle is lit, I see through her
Blow it out and save all her ashes for me

Curse me sold her
The poison that runs it's course through her
Pale white skin with strawberry gashes all over all over

Watch me fault her
You're living like a disaster
She said kill me faster
with strawberry gashes all over

Called her over
and asked her if she was improving
She said "feels fine" it's wonderful wonderful here

Hex me told her
I dreamt of a devil that knew her
Pale white skin with strawberry gashes all over all over

Watch me fault her
You're living like a disaster
She said kill me faster
with strawberry gashes all over

I lay quiet
waiting for her voice to say
"Some things you lose and some things you just give away"

Scold me failed her
If only I'd held on tighter to her
Pale white skin that twisted and withered away from me away from me

Watch me lose her
It's almost like losing myself
Give her my soul
and let them take somebody else get away from me

Watch me fault her
You're living like a disaster
She said kill me faster
with strawberry gashes all over all over me

Everybody applauded and shouted various 'Happy Birthday's to her.

"So what now?" Shihira asked as she stepped off-stage.

"Now we open presents." Hikari said.

-An Hour Later, About 8:00-

Shihira got a Marilyn Manson T-shirt, a Jack Skelington T-shirt, a JtHM T-shirt, an I-tunes gift card, a Hot Topic gift card, various beauty products and clothes, and a necklace with a pentacle pendant that was studded with jade. They were now sitting around the table eating the cake Aya had baked.

"Jeez Aya, this is the best damn cake I think I've ever had." Yusuke exclaimed as he scarfed down another piece.

"I'm glad you like it." Aya replied with a giggle.

"So what next?" Shihira asked. Ami, Aya, and Hikari shared an evil look before turning back to Shihira.

"We play games." They said in unison.

-Hours Later, About 1:00-

"Okay, if I play one more game of DDR I am going to pass out." Ami exclaimed, sitting down on the couch.

"So we played Truth or Dare, Would You Rather, I've Never, which I'm still a bit tipsy from, ERS, Mafia, and DDR and had a karaoke party. Is there anything we missed?" Hikari asked, trying to catch her breath.

"Hmm… WE SHOULD WATCH A MOVIE!!!" Shihira exclaimed, still as hyper as ever. Everybody face faulted.

"Okay, what do you want to watch?" Aya asked from her place on the floor.

"Hmmm…" Shihira pondered as she cocked her head to the side and placed a finger on her chin. "Let's watch Alien!" The whole group groaned on the inside but smiled and nodded. Aya went up to make popcorn while Ami popped the VHS into the VCR. Shihira was bouncing with excitement and Datenshi just shook his head with a smile.

-2 Hours Later, 3:00 AM-

"Ok, I think it's bedtime." Keiko said as she stretched. Yukina was already asleep on Kuwabara's shoulder and Botan looked like she was going to pass out any minute.

"That's probably a good idea. Goodnight everybody." Aya said as she and Kurama went back to their room. Everyone else said goodnight and went to their rooms. Datenshi, being the gentleman he is, walked Shihira to her room.

"Well, I guess I'll see you tomorrow." He said when the got to her room.

"Will you stay?" Shihira asked. "Just for tonight, since it's my birthday." Datenshi seemed to deliberate for a second but eventually nodded.

"I guess that'd be alright." He replied and Shihira smiled widely.

So after Shihira and Datenshi changed into their PJs, they both climbed under Shihira's pink comforter, wrapped up in each other's arms.

"I love you you know." Datenshi said quietly. Shihira had to stifle a gasp. She always knew he did, but he'd never actually told her so out loud. She lifted her head to look at his face with a smile.

"What?" he asked.

"You've never said that before." She replied.

"Really?" She nodded. "Sorry."

"It's ok, I always knew you did. But, it's nice to hear you say it."

"I love you." She grinned and kissed him full on the lips.

"I love you too." She said, laying her head back down on his chest.

"Did you have fun today?" he asked.

"M-hmm. The most fun I've had in ages. Especially when you sang. And I love your present." She said, pointing to her necklace.

"I hoped you would."

"Thank you."

"For what?"

"For being here. For loving me." She yawned.

"You're very welcome, but it's my pleasure. You should get some sleep though. You're exhausted." He said, kissing the top of her head. "Goodnight love."

SIM: Awwwww. That was all fluffy and stuff. I love it! Mostly this came out of the fact that it's Shihira's birthday but also because Shihira and Datenshi haven't actually been in the sequel much so if I didn't give them some fluff they were going to go on strike.

Shihira: Thank you! You rock!
