The Cocktail Parties

OLD FIAT

Prologue---

We started writing this one in the South of France last year, Provence, at Jill's house… it's started out as Yusuke's dream but then we decided to make it into it's own "thing", so here are The Cocktail Parties… svp enjoy!

Chapter One, The Valentine.

Keiko slapped Yusuke hard on the cheek.

"Ow, what was that for?" said Yusuke rubbing the slapped area.

"Your stupid Valentine!" she said, picking up a red card. "Here is your poem:

Roses are Red,

Violets are Blue,

Your hair is brown,

And your eyes are too.

Yukina's hair is blue,

Botan's is too,

But your hair is brown,

Don't worry! Better things than poop are brown!

Your eyelashes are Black,

If I had a car it would be the colour of my hair,

And your Eyelashes too.

Happy Valentine's Day to you.

If I had more time this card would be blue.

"What do you mean? This card would be blue? This card barely rimes! And you included some sick picture," she set down the card and held up a photograph.

"Oops," said Yusuke running up and snatching the picture.

"Now go outside and get me a normal card, chocolates, flowers or something! Just go!" said Keiko waving her arms around hopelessly.

"Here's a poem!" and Yusuke wrote on the back of a recite:

Sugar is sweet,

Coal is Black,

Do me a favour,

And sit on a tack!

"OUT!" yelled Keiko, and Yusuke ran out.

Yusuke went out to look for some flowers or chocolates at the very small grocery store down the street.

When he got there he saw Hiei standing by snacks and wearing a little black tuxedo with a little black bowtie.

"Hiei?" said Yusuke. "What are you doing here?"

"Look Kurama, they're only half price," said Hiei, then he saw Yusuke. "Oh hi."

"What are you doing here," Yusuke repeated.

"Kurama's holding a cocktail party and I'm invited," said Hiei. "But he has no taste in snack food."

Yusuke looked over at Kurama, who was muttering to himself, "What colour of Gatorade does Hiei like?"

"You can come too if you want," said Hiei picking up a jar of pickles.

"Yusuke!" said Kurama walking over to them holding Red wine, some Gatorade (all colours), some vodka and sodas. "I'm holding a cocktail party, you can come too if you want." Kurama was wearing a white tuxedo with a black bowtie. "I've got another Tux back at my flat."

"Okay," said Yusuke, and they went to Kurama's flat.
