Note: I have edited the first chapter, really only fixing grammatical errors and making a few word changes. Everything else is the same. Sorry that the next chapter took so long, I was multi-tasking, so to speak. School is making me wierd, not giving assignments much, so I guess I'll do this in my free-time. Please enjoy everyone if you have'nt read this yet. ^///^

Chapter 2.
The look of surprise bemused everyone's faces, even Suichi, whom wondered why this was so.

"House"? What the hell does a house have to do with this? Hiei ponders to himself.

"House?" Yusuke says aloud to himself, and then whispers to Kurama "Hey Kurama isn't 'house' a kids' gameAH!" Keiko lets go of Yusuke's ear in response to that rhetorical question. Yusuke sighs "I mean, shouldn't we play something else…that works out for all of us?" Kurama smiles

"Well Yusuke, what games would you play? After all, my brother is only five-years-old." Yusuke sweat drops, and Kurama's victory is announced with his wily smile. "No harm" he assures "House is not too complicated…well at least for this mix of personalities, it should be fun." Suichi looks around waiting for approval; Kurama digresses his talk with Yusuke and turns to Suichi. Suichi-itoto-chan, why don't you explain how this game works. I'm not sure everyone here is familiar with 'house'." Suichi beams, elongating his spine as to look taller, important.

"House," he begins "is when you have a group of friends, boys and girls" he pans his arms, motioning everyone. "Then everyone pretends to be a family, and everyone has a part, like…" He stops for a moment to think.

"See it's silly." Yusuke whispers; Keiko stomps on his foot.

"It sounds fun, I'll try." Yukina agrees.

"Hn I want no part." Hiei murmurs. As others mutter thoughts, ponders are scattered when suddenly Suichi clears his throat.

"Daddy!" He shouts pointing to Yusuke; "Mommy!" to Keiko, "Uncle!" to Kurama, "Aunt!" pointing to Botan. "Uhhhmm…" the toddler puzzles looking for more roles. Meanwhile some looks are exchanged and Keiko and Yusuke turn crimson.

"Ku…Kurama, did you tell him anything about us!?" Yusuke drones angrily at the fox.

"Nothing like that Yusuke, perhaps he thought you both look good." The fox smiles playfully. Hiei shakes his head, starting to shift his feet

This looks absolutely foolish, I don't want any part. However, Yukina is still holding onto the hiyouki's arm

Damn, how can I leave with Yukina here? The fire demon swallowed subtly, the ice-maiden's presence always renders him frozen, in a trance making it hard no, impossible to disdain her.

Suichi, still thinking, stopped to glance at the fire demon and the ice maiden; side by side.

"I know!" he shouts bringing everyone's attention, but Hiei, to him. Suichi points to Yukina. "The daughter and the son. Yeah, I will be the baby, since I'm the youngest! The red-eyed friends will be my big-brother and sister!"

Red-eyed? Hiei ponders Oh God No! Oh dammit he means me! Me and--

"Yukina!" a rasp voice wails "Yukina can't be that shrimp's sister! I mean, you can't trust him with a delicate, fair girl like Yukina!"

"Pipe down Kazuma! Shizuru replies giving a hopeless look at her brother; Kuwabara, on the other hand walks up to Suichi and squats down to him. Kurama watches intently prepared to defend his half-brother, still cautioned knowing even Kuwabara wouldn't hit a small child like Suichi. Hiei glares at the carrot-head, still shocked himself. He glances over at Yukina, her pale cheeks tinted with pink, eyes wide; it was then Hiei noticed her grip on his arm had tightened.

"Hey Suichi-chan, what would I be then?" Kuwabara asks gruffly to the toddler, then mutters to himself "I have to protect Yukina." Suichi blinked a few times, then he thought intensely for two seconds.

"Family Dog!" It was all he said and half the group released stifled laughter.

"Personally Suichi-chan I would have preferred the family chimp!" Yusuke hollers

"You are big enough itoto-baka, maybe a Sheppard terrier; I hear they're popular with big-dog lovers." Kuwabara just stood there puzzled and even considered whacking the toddler when he saw him chortling. But then he heard Yukina giggling lightly.

Oh what the hell, she likes the idea, and I can always attack Hiei if he dare touches her. It'll just look like I'm being territorial.

"What about me Suichi-chan?" Shizuru calls out nonchalantly.

"You can be the big-big sister" Suichi answers

"Great! A daughter who's older than me, how do we screw that up?" Yusuke sighs

"Woof! Woof! Yip!" the Kuwabara-dog crawls over to Yukina.

"Aha-ha good dog" Yukina praises and curtly pats Kuwabara's head

Hm…maybe this won't be so bad. The carrot-head gleams impishly.

" Hn…Baka" Hiei mutters.
