"Well, I think it's safe to say they made up," Kurama chuckled.

"I'll say! Hiei did some serious apologizing," Yusuke laughed. They could hear their shower escapade from downstairs in the living room.

Hiei emerged from the bedroom, clad in a pair of black silk pajamas with the top open. He wasn't wearing underwear, which became obvious as he strolled closer.

"Is Kuwabara feeling better?" Yusuke asked innocently.

Hiei's eyes narrowed. "Kazuma is fine. I'll tell him you asked about him."

"We must apologize for making him uncomfortable," Kurama said. "We know he's shy."

"Kazuma is fine. In fact, he has decided to accept your offer."

"Really?" Yusuke asked, arching his eyebrow.

"Yes detective, unless you have reneged."

"Are you sure Hiei?" Kurama inquired.

"Yes Kurama. It was his suggestion. He just needs a stiff drink and something to relax."

"I see…." replied Kurama.

Kuwabara walked down the stairs and joined his mate.

"Awwww how cute," Yusuke teased, noting the matching pajamas.

"Shut up!" Kuwabara said, rolling his eyes.

"What's this we hear from the twerp that you accepted our challenge?" Yusuke inquired.

"Yeah? What about it? You chicken out?

"Whatever!"

"Kuwabara, can I offer you a drink?" Kurama asked.

"Yeah. I'll take a whiskey double on the rocks."

"That's a lot of liquor from a lightweight like you." Yusuke jeered.

"I'll handle it!" Kuwabara glared, turning pink.

"Here's your drink Kuwabara." Kurama said handing him a drink. Hiei noticed him adding a blue liquid from a vial and swirling it, giving him a nod of approval.

Kuwabara took a long sip. "Mmmmm. What brand is this?"

"Jack Daniels. Very popular in America," Kurama replied.

He downed the rest in two gulps. "One more."

"A single this time," advised Hiei.

"You got it." Kurama poured a single and added only a couple of drops of the blue liquid.

Kuwabara swirled the ice in his glass. "So Urameshi what did you have in mind?"

"Like I said you would give Hiei and hand job and Kurama would do me."

"That's hardly fair Yusuke," Kurama commented.

"What do you mean?" Kuwabara asked.

"What he means is that you have no chance at winning. You are a rookie and my kitsune has 1000 years experience."

"WHAT DID YOU SAY?" Kuwabara exclaimed.

"Simple. You can't win." Yusuke said smugly.

"Is that a fact detective?" challenged Hiei.

"Yeah, shorty."

"Bring it Urameshi!" Kuwabara yelled.

"Actually, you should be addressing me Kuwabara," Kurama stated calmly.

"Fine. But why just stop at hand jobs? Let's do triple threat."

"Hn," Hiei smirked.

"Triple threat, what's that?" Yusuke asked.

"First a hand job, then a blow job, and last who can fuck their partner into oblivion!"

Three pairs of eyes studied him in shock.

Kuwabara stared back at the emerald, ruby, and chocolate eyes that were fixed on him.

"Pardon?" Kurama inquired, raising a perfectly arched eyebrow.

"You heard me, fox." Kuwabara met his gaze.

"Are you willing to go that far?" Hiei asked, gently touching his lover's arm.

"Yeah, Kuwabara. That's a big leap from someone afraid to touch his man's dick in public." Yusuke chimed in.

"Shut up," Kuwabara said. "I'm a real man, and a real man always keeps his word. Let's do this." Kuwabara's tone was final.

"I guess that settles it then," Kurama mused.

"Yes, so what's your plan detective?" Hiei directed his question at Yusuke.

"Well…you know me…"

"He doesn't have one of course." Hiei said knowingly.

"Well," Kuwabara said, feeling braver by the minute, "It's Friday. How about we do one event a night? Tonight will be the hand jobs and Sunday will be the main event."

Hiei stared at his lover in blatant admiration. He was utterly speechless.

"Sounds like an excellent plan Kuwabara," Kurama commented.

"So what are the terms?" Hiei asked.

"Hmmm. If we win, then you have to cook for us every Sunday Kuwabara." Yusuke stipulated. It was a well known fact that Kuwabara's skills in the kitchen can rival a master chef's.

"And you both have to accompany us to the theater once a month," Kurama chimed in. Both Yusuke and Hiei rolled their eyes at this.

"Fine. We accept." Hiei spoke for the pair.

"And if we win, you have to clean our house, mow our lawn and wash our car weekly," Hiei stated, after conferring with Kuwabara.

"Done," said Yusuke.

"How will we judge the winner?" asked Kurama

"We are all honorable men, as well as friends. So we will rely on the honor system." stated Kuwabara.

"You got it."

"Sure."

"Hn."

"And for the 'demonstrations'?" asked Kurama, a stickler for the details.

"Well for the first event, hands and lube only," stated Kuwabara.

"For the second event," added Yusuke, "any flavors, foods or other 'mouth enhancers' will be allowed."

"And for the final even, no holds barred, anything and everything goes," stipulated Hiei.

"Done," said Yusuke.

"Agreed," said Kurama.

Everyone turned their attention to Kuwabara, who nodded in agreement.

"Ok," said Kuwabara. "So Who's first?"
