Roses Are Black...

It was Thursday. And Kurama was walking up the many stairs of Genkai's temple. It was his turn to help Botan prepare for Koenma's birthday. Yuusuke had his turn yesterday, though he didn't help much, as Botan had said.
Finally reaching the top, Kurama looked around for any sign of any of the three females that should be there at the moment. Genkai- no, she might be inside though. Yukina- she was usually outside but she might be at Kuwabara's house. And Botan- she was suppose to be here.
"Kurama!" Botan cried, running from behind the temple, carrying a load of party hats and balloons. She dropped it all on the ground. "Thank goodness you made it. Can you help me with this helium thingy, I just don't understand it." She pointed to the silver machine standing on the porch, waiting to serve a balloon its ability to float.
Kurama nodded. "Sure." He followed the ferrygirl to the porch, helping her carry the supplies. "Here, you see, you put this part, the part that you blow through, you stick it right on this small straw thing. Yes, that's right..."
Botan, still messing up, decided to go inside and order a cake while Kurama finished up with the balloons. Tying a purple one down, he picked up a black one and began to blow it up. Botan said she needed some with air from the mouth, to let them decorate the floor, she said.
Finished with them at last, Kurama handed them over to Botan who nodded and invited him inside. Inside, there were a lot of decorations. Streamers were flying everywhere, balloons floating around and tripping ones on the ground. There was a large wooden table in the center with all the supplies like napkins and forks, etc. There were also a couple banners shouting, "Happy Birthday Koenma-sama!" And there were many hearts on the banners, proving just how much Botan's feelings to the little prince were.
Suddenly, Botan came rushing in, pulling out her oar. "Kurama! I've gotta go! Koenma-sama's looking for me, and I can't make him come here yet!" She glanced around. "Here, look, you finish up, okay? Kuwabara and I will continue tomorrow. Okay, ja ne!" And she flew through the doors and back to the Reikai, hoping Koenma wouldn't find out about this.
Kurama sighed and picked up a black party hat lying on the floor near his feet. He looked at it and thought, curiously, what would Hiei look like in a party hat? Adorable, probably. But on the other hand, to Kurama, anything on Hiei would look kawaii.
"What's so funny, fox?" Hiei asked, scaring Kurama as he landed neatly on the ground in front of the doors which Botan just passed.
Kurama blinked. "Nothing." But the image of his koi in party stuff grew, and he stuffed his fist in his mouth, making sure not to giggle aloud in front of his itooshi.
"Can you help me with this?" the fox asked, picking up some thick borders with tiny papers on it. "I need to hang it up around the room. Then I'm done."
"Hn." Hiei stared at the long strips in Kurama's hands. And he really wanted to return to his fox's bedroom where they can have there own privacy (*wink, wink). "Fine. I'll help."
"Great!" Kurama cried. He picked up a stapler and threw it to Hiei who caught it with ease. "Look. Just pick up a border, match it up with this ceiling line. Pick up the stapler, or the thing in my right hand, and just kind of stamp it. Push it, but not too hard." Kurama looked at Hiei's work. "Good, Hiei. You got it." And he continued.
Finally done the last one, Hiei put down the stapler, which was running low on staples. "I'm done," he growled, watching as Kurama was finishing up as well. Hiei looked down and spotted a red party hat. "What's this?"
Kurama put down his own stapler, glad that it was over and glanced at what Hiei was holding. "Hiei, it's a party hat. You pull the string and just snap it on." Kurama thought. He took the party hat from Hiei and smiled. "Like this." And he put it on Hiei.
The kitsune stepped back, looking at the Jaganshi. "You look so kawaii!" he exclaimed.
Hiei was burning with embarrassment. He pulled it off and threw on the ground. "C'mon, kitsune no baka, let's go." And Kurama nodded with agreement.
