Disclaimer-I don't own YYH, but like everyone before and after me, I wish I did.
Note-This is my first ff that has been released on the web and my first YYH fic ever. I take constructive criticisms, which are flames, stating the reason why you didn't like it, ex: I didn't like it because it was too boring, too slow, not enough action, etc. If you give me a review with a plain "I don't like it," I'll just disregard it because you are not really telling me why, and to improve as an author I have to know where, why, and what my stories are lacking. Thanks.

Kurama laughed to himself when he had seen Hiei's reaction to his vine. It was quite funny to see his surprised face when he jumped out of his slumber only to be replaced by the bewildered look as he looked down upon the shredded vine, only to again be replaced by an angered look.
'Uh, oh,' Kurama thought to himself as he let his laughter subside.
'I'm gonna get it now.'
Before Kurama could react, he saw Hiei about to jump when CRACK. The branch he was jumping off of snapped beneath him.
"Hiei," Kurama said rather loudly as he looked out of the window and down below.
That's when he saw Hiei, well rather a very pissed off Hiei, hanging from his katana that he had so gracefully imbedded into the wall of his house. Kurama cringed when he thought about what his mother would say the next morning about a big gapping hole and plaster strewn about in the living room.
"Hey fox are you just gonna stand there and stare at me for the rest of the night?" The fire youkai snapped as Kurama was brought back to reality.
"Ah, gomen Hiei," Kurama replied apologetically.
Kurama offered his hand to Hiei, who took it. Pulling him up into his room, Kurama had added a bit too much emphasis, heard a loud thump, and soon found him sprawled on his back on the floor with a very surprised Hiei on top of him, staring at him. Kurama's heart beat wildly in his chest.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
'Stupid fox,' Hiei thought to himself as he hung from his katana.
'Stupid tree.'
He looked up to see Kurama staring down at him, a dreamlike sparkle in his eyes.
"Hey fox are you just gonna stand there and stare at me for the rest of the night?" He asked a bit sharply.
That question seemed to have brought his partner back to reality.
"Ah, gomen Hiei," Kurama replied a bit sorry for leaving his friend hanging there.
Hiei grabbed Kurama's hand and felt himself being pulled up rather too hastily and too hard, and soon he felt himself landing on something soft.
Opening his eyes he found him staring into green ones and only to be realizing that the soft thing he landed on was really Kurama.
Hiei didn't know why, but he felt heat creeping up to his face. He was just thankful that his back was turned toward the window and the moonlight did not betray his current state. It seemed that time had suddenly stopped and for a moment they only laid there on the floor staring at each other, Hiei seemingly being, yet again, drawn into the beautiful green gaze. That's when. . .

It seemed that the universe stopped in that one moment. Kurama could not see Hiei's face for the night shadowed it, but the deep red of Hiei's eyes reflected the scant traces of light. They were staring intently into his. For once in his life he felt like he could stay like this forever. That is until. . .
"Suuichi?" Said a rather concern voice from outside his door.
"Are you alright? I heard a loud bang in your room."
Hiei quickly stood up allowing a rather reluctant Kurama to get up and stride towards the door. He cracked the door open a bit so he would not betray the guest behind him. As he peered out of the door he found his mother staring at him with a very curious look on her face.
"I'm fine mother," Kurama replied.
"I was having a dream and I fell off the bed," he lied. "So go back to bed mother you have work in the morning."
"Alright then Su-chan," she answered back, seemingly satisfied with the response that her son gave her. "Goodnight."
Kurama closed the door and leaned against it breathing a sigh of relief. He ran his fingers through his hair, a habit that he had of late, and allowed his heartbeat to slow a bit.

Hiei pulled away from Kurama as he heard the knock upon the door. Kurama slowly got up, apparently dazed by the fall because he seemed to have been reluctant to rise, and quickly walked towards the door. He heard Kurama exchange a few words with his human mother.
'Hn,' he thought, what wonderful time to interrupt.
'Well in any case it was good that she came when she did or else. . .'
'Or else what?' Said the other voice in his head. 'You would've told him. You know what effects that the fox has on you.'
'He means nothing to me. He is my partner.' Hiei thought to himself.
The other voice in his head would not let him have it.
'You like Kurama, you like Kurama, you like Kurama. . .' it taunted him.
'Shut up,' he thought. He definitely needed to have his head checked out.
Snapping out of the inner battle with himself he turned to see Kurama leaning up against the door. He watched as Kurama let his long slender fingers glide through his red hair; something that he had been doing quite frequently.
Oh how he wanted to so badly run his fingers through the kitsune's. . .wait. Shaking his head he heard that nagging voice in his head.
'Oh look, you do want him don't you,' the voice said.
'No I don't,' he said to the voice inside of him.
'Yes you do, just look at him,' the other voice teased. Hiei opened his eyes and studied the kitsune across the room. His fire red hair glistening in the moonlight, his beautiful green eyes staring up at the ceiling, his bare chest rising up and down with each breathe. . .
'Damn why do you have to look so. . .so. . .so damn appealing fox!' he thought to himself.
The voice within him laughed.
Hiei scowled, crossed his arms and closed his eyes focusing on getting rid of the stupid voice that dared to defy him.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Glancing towards the window Kurama found Hiei standing there, his arms crossed at his chest and a scowl on his face.
"Ningen mothers," he finally heard him mutter.
Kurama crossed the room and sat on the bed.
"Sorry about that," Kurama apologized. "Next time we'll just have to be a bit more quiet."
"Hn," was the only reply Hiei got. "Why did you wake me up anyway fox?" Hiei asked this time looking at the kitsune.
Kurama opened his mouth and was about to answer when he realized that he didn't have an answer.
'Should I tell him?' He thought.
'No not now, how would I tell him?'
'Do I just say, "Hiei I really like you, in fact Hiei I think I'm in love with you?"'
Kurama closed his mouth then shook his head.
"Well fox?" Hiei persisted, feeling a bit impatient. He really needed to know why he was woken up.
"Well. . .Hiei. . .you were sleeping in a branch which didn't look quite comfortable. . .so I thought. . .well I just thought perhaps you would like to sleep in my room tonight," Kurama managed to mutter out.
"Why fox? It's not raining out," replied Hiei as he frowned.
Kurama sighed.
"You don't have to stay if you don't want to," trying not to let the hurt show in his voice.
"Hn. . ." was all Hiei could say.
"I thought perhaps you would've like to keep me company is all," finished Kurama allowing his gaze to drop to his lap. He was a bit startled that he let himself ramble on.
Hiei looked at him with surprised eyes.
'He wants my company?' He thought. 'What for? No one has ever asked my company before.'
Kurama sensed the confusion on Hiei's face.
"Look, forget it," Kurama muttered, about to get up from his sitting position on the bed.
That's when he felt a warm rough hand close around his wrist.
"Hiei?" Kurama questioned.
