Disclaimer- I don't own Yu Yu Hakusho, and I'm not making any profit from writing and posting this drabble. Also, the little snippet from X-Ambassador's song "Unsteady" is not mine either.
Warnings/Notes/Rating- T, I guess. It's not graphic. I wrote this at a time when I couldn't get X-Ambassador's song "Unsteady" out of my head, and I just kept listening to it on repeat. I am incapable of writing anything graphically sexual in nature right now…so there likely will be no lemons or whatever from me for a while. I don't know. Anyway, I really love Jin/Yusuke as a pairing, but I was also literally craving a hug at the time I wrote this, too…and so you got this thing. I actually like it. I guess…the vague Keiko-chose-someone-else thing in this drabble that got Yusuke down might rub some people the wrong way (die hard Keiko/Yusuke shippers?). I'm not going to apologize. This contains a little bit of shounen ai, I guess. Enjoy if this is your thing. Click the back button if it isn't. Also, I didn't really follow the prompt…or trying to write much of an accent for Jin… -shrugs-
Saku's Drabble Wars Prompt- Yusuke/Jin- Jin knew of so many uses for the wind. Yusuke was going to learn of them all.

Hold on to me/'Cause I'm a little unsteady – X Ambassadors, "Unsteady"
Yusuke fell to his knees with a roar, pounding his fists against hard, cracked earth. He busted his knuckles open, blood falling from the wounds. His forehead fell down against Tourin's desert ground, his energy spiraling up something fierce around him.
Every demon for miles around, who could feel that energy, would know that something was tearing the young Mazoku king apart…and that it would be best to steer clear of him. Well, every demon with common sense anyway because there was one demon who went toward Yusuke.
Keiko, why did you do this to me? I would've given you the world. I gave you everything I had to give. Why would you choose him over me? Yusuke's thoughts whirled faster than hurricane winds, so fast in fact he didn't sense the demon who approached him from above.
Yusuke didn't feel anything until a solid, muscled pair of arms wrapped around him and embraced him from behind. The one who held him so close, so tenderly, took them both straight into the sky.
Surprised, Yusuke found himself unable to speak…though he did have enough of his mental faculties left to twist his head around and see who held him now. His dark eyes widened when he locked eyes with the piercing, laughing, deep blue eyes of the wind master.
"Jin?" Yusuke asked, finally finding his words again, and turning himself around in the wind demon's arms, his bare chest meeting the demon's in front of him.
"The one and only. Now, what's got you all upset?" Jin asked, tilting his head to the side a little, a tiny smile dancing on the edge of his lips.
And just like that, Yusuke realized how high in the crimson Makai sky Jin had taken them. Sucking in a deep breath, he unconsciously held onto Jin tighter. He wasn't afraid of heights, but he still wasn't dumb enough to look down.
Yusuke just looked at Jin in silence for a few moments, considering what, or even if, he should say anything about Keiko. He was suddenly very aware of drying tear tracks on his cheeks and that Jin had snuck up on him in a moment of great weakness. Blushing a little in shame, he couldn't help turning away from Jin.
"Now, now, don't be pushing ol' Jin away. You can tell me anything, you know," Jin said, pulling Yusuke somehow even closer with one hand.
With his other hand Jin grasped Yusuke's chin and turned him back to face him.
"Keiko…" Yusuke muttered, still refusing to meet the wind demon's gaze.
"Ah. What about the lass?"
"She…doesn't want to be with me. Chose someone else," Yusuke said, closing his eyes, not knowing why he wasn't holding back anything from Jin.
"Oh," was all Jin said in reply.
He did, however, cup the back of the boy's head and gently maneuvered Yusuke's head to rest in the crook of his neck. Sighing, Yusuke offered no resistance to the wind demon's action.
Some part of Yusuke seemed to realize…that he just needed to be held right now.
