"So how does everything work around here?" He asked, not to keen on getting thrown out any time soon. "I guess Kurama's the guy to answer to huh?"

"Well he does own the house, imbecile," Hiei said with a flick of his head. "He's the one that started all this madness." He boredly waved his hand in the direction of the house. Kuzuma rolled his eyes at the short man and, for the first time since Yusuke had walked into the kitchen, turned directly to address him.

"Well it's like this: we get to stay here only if we're enrolled in school. Other than that, there really aren't any rules, 'cept nothing illegal can be going on." He shrugged as the dark haired boy grinned. So, he could basically do whatever the hell he wanted, now that sounded like fun! And in a city like this, there was bound to be some good things going on.

"So, is this the newcomer?" A soft voice from behind him made Yusuke jump and turn to see Kurama. He blinked. Now that the redhead was fully awake, he seemed… prettier than Yusuke had first thought. Wait WHAT?! No way he had just thought that about another man! Well, in truth, Kurama had a more feminine look about him anyway; maybe it was just sensory perception. Ignoring a nagging little thought in the back of his mind, Yusuke scoffed.

"Yeah that's me. What about it?"

"Well, if you are going to be staying here, I have to outline a few things. Please follow me." This man couldn't have been more than a few years older than Yusuke, yet he talked in such a polite manner. It kind of made the firsthand respect for the redhead drop majorly. Oh well, he guessed it would have to be endured. Yusuke followed the house's owner back through the living room and into a small little office.

"This the best you got? Come on man, I expected you to have some huge ass office." Yusuke said as he took a seat in front of a tiny desk. Kurama sat opposite of him and laughed again.

"I don't need a lot of room," He said simply with a little shrug. "Now then, I expect the others have told you of my one rule. Other than that I don't have much to say. There's no rent and you'll get a room to yourself."

"No rent? You fucking with me man? How do you keep this place running if we don't have to pay?"

"Well while it is hard, I manage," He rose from his chair, apparently done. "Though there is one thing I'll tell you, you will have to earn your keep in this house." Earn his keep? He supposed it was like cleaning and cooking and all that crap. So whatever, he nodded. "Good." Suddenly, Kurama was much closer than he had any right to be. Yusuke picked up the faint scent of flowers. Without any kind of warning, the redhead had his lips pressed up against the others. Before Yusuke could even register what had just happened, it was over, and Kurama was walking out of the door. The raven stood there in shock. Yeah it had been a half a second kiss, and he had done far worse with someone, but dammit, it was still a kiss! After a few minutes of just standing there like an idiot, Yusuke decided to leave and venture back into the kitchen. To his dismay, only Hiei sat there, still drinking out of a cup of coffee.

"Where is everyone?" The shorter man scoffed like he usually did around the newcomer, but he at least turned his gaze towards him.

"Left for class," He said simply. "I'm the only one who doesn't have class today."

"Is Kurama gone too?" His voice came out a little nervously; he really didn't want to run into Kurama again. The guy was alright and everything, but he couldn't shake the kiss out of his thoughts. Out of nowhere, Hiei laughed. The sound surprised Yusuke into silence.

"He kissed you, didn't he?" How the hell did he know?! Was this like kiss and tell central? Oh man he could get into a bunch of trouble if it was. Again, Hiei laughed, actually laughed. It scared the shit out of Yusuke. "Don't read too much into it. He does that with all the new tenants. Kinda like, sealing the deal if you will. Did you really think he'd come on to you so early? Give the man some kind of credit. He's not a horny bastard like you." The insult made Yusuke's eyebrow twitch. He was getting fed up with this… this… shrimp! How dare he make assumptions on someone he didn't know!"

"That's being hypocritical, isn't it?" Hiei's voice in his head was honestly the last thing he was expecting. The shock made him give a little cry and ungracefully fall on his ass.

"What the hell was that?!" He yelled up at the other, who just gave him a sadistic kind of smile before hopping off his chair to stand in front of the new boy.

"Just remember what Botan told you, dumbass: I dabble in the dark arts. Don't think I can't rip your brain apart like tissue paper." Okay, that was the very last straw for Yusuke. He leapt up and grabbed Hiei by the collar.

"You are seriously starting to piss me off shrimp!" He yelled, pulling the other off the floor an inch or so. "You got a problem with me we can settle it right here, right now!" With a glare searing enough to burn skin, Hiei grabbed Yusuke's arm and violently jerked downward, forcing him to let go. Yusuke yelped; it felt like fire where the other boy's hands touched his flesh.

"You think you can talk like that to me?" He hissed in a dangerous voice. "I'll have to show you your place!"
