Part 4

Awe yes! Rest has finally come to you, Yusuke! The detective let his whole body drop upon the soft mattress. It felt warm and fluffy. The four corners of his body were surrounded with the couch's material and his hair was shaped into a round curve. Darkness was all he could see for now. His eyes were too tired to be open, and all he wanted to do was sleep a good long nap. But of course, Yusuke is always interrupted when things become good. His bulky, orange haired companion used his loud voice to startle the detective.

"Hey Urameshi! Have you seen Yukina?!" the detective's eyes shot open and he managed to sit up right to stare at the big oaf.

"Damn you, Kuwabara! I was trying to sleep! Not worry 'bout your lil girlfriend!"

Suddenly, the carrot top's face drooped down to his knees. His position sank greatly and he had to sit down next to his friend. Poor thing, he looked so desperate and out of spirit. He was completely opposite from his regular loud self and was causing Yusuke to become very concerned. The detective lowered himself closer beside him.

"What?" he sighed at his companion's gloomy face. "Should I ask?"

"Yukina...s-she...she dumped me." His voice was completely dead and silent. At that moment, he did not look like a big loud oaf, and he did not look like the type of guy that followed his own code. Instead, he looked so drained of life that it seemed as if he would not last another minute.

"Oh, Kuwabara..." As for the detective, he did not look like the cocky, arrogant and stubborn person he usually was. Instead, compassionate eyes were in the mist and comfort was all he could give.

She said she was going back to her home to find out more information on her brother...and she doesn't want a long distance relationship." Kuwabara closed his eyes with pain. It was too much to bear that the person he feel in love with was going away from him to find a person who was already well within her reach.

"What!? You mean to tell me Hiei STILL hasn't told Yukina that he's her brother!?

Yusuke s fists were clenched up together as he stood up from the couch and took a stand, intent on voicing his thoughts on the matter.

"I'm sick and tired of this 'hide-and-don t-tell-anyone' shit! Yukina needs to know! It's 'bout time that short punk stopped being such a scared freak and told his own goddamn sister the truth!" About to stomp out of the room, rage controlling his mind, the hot-tempered delinquent stopped when he heard the voice of his companion.

"No, don't, Urameshi." Turning around, surprised at his companion's response, Yusuke's eyes were dead set on the tears that he began to shed. He was crying, he was actually crying! That big softy, Kuwabara would always get emotional over the weirdest things, but this was understandable.

Still, wouldn't it be easier just to tell the girl who her brother really is? She has the right to know, especially when it meant taking her away from a dear love.

"It doesn't matter what I do, she'll always find a way to leave me. I dunno what it is, but every time I'm around her I get this feeling of pain or that I'm not wanted." That's when he looked up at his friend and wiped away the tears he had shed. It was not like Kuwabara to just start crying...he would rather whine or beg but never cry, especially in front of Yusuke.

However, the detective understood. Things were not going well for them and their females. Yusuke's had problems with Keiko from the start and well, Kuwabara certainly had never been an expert when it came to women. Nevertheless, this was a time to comfort a friend in need. Yusuke...seems that it's your turn to be the healer.

"Kuwabara, you're probably imagining things."

'You should walk up to him now, Yusuke' he told himself mentally before striding over to the couch and taking a seat next to his friend.

"But I do think it's time to tell Yukina the truth to see how she'll react to it. When she knows who her brother is and still returns to her home, then we'll get suspicious."

"Blah, itz a waste of time. I'M SICK OF GIRLS!" titling his head to the side, Yusuke questioned his comrade's words. He wondered about the fellow. He had major mood swings and was hardly what you'd call predicable. Yusuke had thought it was a good feature...well, until now, that is.

"What do you mean Kuwabara?"

"Urameshi, I'm not going to fall for another person until that person comes to me!" Standing up proud with his new code, Kuwabara laid his right hand on his chest. "And I promise not to look at another girl as long as I live!"

Heh, nice code, but one that Kuwabara could probably never follow. The detective did not know what to make of this new code, but he did know that he viewed Kuwabara in a different light now. Some how, he liked being here next to him and actually found that he enjoyed his loud mouth. Yusuke smiled up at Kuwabara and began to laugh at how ridiculous his partner looked.

"Wha?! WHATZ SO FUNNY URAMESHI!?"

Kuwabara came right up to his best friend's nose, so close that their foreheads were touching. Yusuke, on the other hand, began to laugh up a storm. He couldn't keep himself from laughing in a serious moment, but Kuwabara was dead serious and Yusuke was not the type for this mood. Actually, the detective was laughing so hard he fell on his back and continued to laugh, rolling all over the couch in the process. Kuwabara became disgusted at the site. He wanted Yusuke to know that he was dead serious. There was nothing to laugh at!

"Alright thatz it Urameshi! You're..." suddenly, it happened. Kuwabara had leaned down to take a hold of the other boy's collar but at the exact same time Yusuke had already started sitting up to rest. They collided and had somehow managed to get both of their lips to press upon each other. Just a peck, but it was slowly released and they stared at one another.

Yusuke's eyes were closed from laughing so much and Kuwabara's were open with surprise. They both could not believe that they had just accidentally slipped into a gaze of wonder. What would happen next? Who would say the next word? Should I be the one to say something? What will everyone else think? Fuck everyone. Yusuke, this is about what you want, is it not? So, what is the thing that you want right now Urameshi Yusuke?

Yusuke closed his eyes again and cupped both of Kuwabara's cheeks as he drew him into a passionate kiss. Surprisingly, Kuwabara did not resist. He stood frozen and let Yusuke's tongue work its tricks inside his mouth.

A new secret to keep from everyone else, hey Yusuke?
