Chapter Six: Practicing for the Talent Show
Kurama's POV
I got up early, while Hiei was still sleeping. It was Saturday. I walked to Genkai's Temple to see how Yukina was doing with the song.
I wasn't surprised to see Kuwabara sitting with her. He's there every single day. I smiled, recalling a time when a certain fire demon almost let his secret slip.
Flashback:
/ Kuwabara grabbed Yukina's hand. "Oh, my Yukina, will you be my girlfriend?"
Hiei was in the back of the room, scoffing, while everyone else was watching intently.
Yukina looked wide-eyed, looking at him innocently. "Kazuma . . ." Kuwabara looked giddy and anxious.
She said slowly, "Kazuma . . . what's a girlfriend?"
(everyone) *anime fall*
He said, "A girlfriend is a friend you're really really close to, that you can tell you're secrets to, that you like."
She smiled sweetly. Innocent Yukina. "I like you too, Kazuma."
Kuwabara put his fists in the air, saying, "Score!"
Hiei was glaring at him. "I'll let her, you big buffoon, but if you lay a dirty hand on my-"
Kuwabara looked baffled as everyone else was about to laugh (with the exception of Yukina). "On your what?"
Hiei looked embarrassed. "Er, my friend's you-know-what, you'll have me to deal with./
I sat out the door, beaming at the memory, and saying to myself, "Kuwabara so conveniently left out the part of a boy being able to kiss his girlfriend." Kuwabara came out. "Hey man, are you going to come in or just stand out there dreaming?"
I smiled. "I'm coming."
He led us to the room, where Yukina was playing the guitar and singing. My eyes widened. Since when was she so talented? I handed her the song lyrics.
She stared at it for a while, then smiled, saying happily, "The lyrics actually fit the music! I'll have it ready for you by tomorrow!"
I smiled back. I said goodbye to them, walking to Yusuke's house. I wanted a *few* witnesses to rate Hiei's singing.
*~*~*~*~ Next day ~*~*~*~*
Kurama's POV
It was morning. I was dragging a whining Hiei to Genkai's Temple. He screeched, "Why do I have to sing in front of the idiot and the detective? I thought we would be doing this in private when I volunteered!"
I said sternly, "We need eyewitnesses and raters to hear you. Not to mention people to play the music. I heard that Kuwabara's good at the drums."
He mumbled, "It's still not . . . fair . . ."
I could tell he needed a bit of cheering up. "Listen, Hiei. If you do this for me, as soon as the Talent Show's over, I'll buy you some ice cream."
He stared at me. I smiled. It was impossible for him to resist. He was addicted to the stuff. He pouted cutely. "Are you bribing me?"
I laughed. "Of course."
He stuttered, "I - I - . . . oh alright."
I smirked. In a while, we arrived at Genkai's Temple. Everyone was waiting for us, Yusuke on the guitar, Kuwabara on the drums, Yukina at the side with the lyrics. Shizuru, Botan, Koenma (apparently dragged by Botan), Genkai, and Keiko were at the sidelines with scoring sheets.
Yukina smiled sweetly at Hiei. She teased, "How did you convince him to come, Kurama? With ice cream again?"
Hiei nearly fainted. I grinned. "Of course."
Yukina turned serious. She gave us the modified lyrics, making Yusuke and Kuwabara play the song while she point out what we were going to sing, and when. It had a nice beat, a cool melody, and was perfect for the talent show. She handed us the lyrics, barking out orders (A/N O_O).
Hiei began singing (A/N Go Hiei!) loudly. Everyone gave a big "O" of astonishment. He was good, really good. I chuckled to myself. Looks like Hiei was a good choice after all. He stopped, glared at me, and I began my part.
We got rated a bunch of eights and nines. I complained, "Yusuke was a bit quiet with the guitar. I think we should do it again."
Hiei muttered something that sounded like, "Perfectionist . . ."
Yusuke grinned. "Sure!
We played it again. It was even better than last time. I smiled. "Great job, everyone. You really filled in the right places, Yusuke."
Yusuke grinned, joking, "I know what else is filled in the right places." He winked at Keiko, checking out her curves, while she turned red, slapping him hard in the head.
I rolled my eyes. Hiei said telepathically to me, /I think I'll need something more than ice cream to get me to sing in front of all those undeserving humans/
I stared at him. He was smirking. I asked, /What?/
He continued, /I want something . . . from you/
I stared at him more. What could he possibly want? His smirk grew wider. /Don't be so naïve, Kurama. You want it more than I do. It's more like a small favor/
I thought a moment. He probably already knew that I liked him . . . /Just tell me, Hiei. You can search my brain better than I can/
He gave a snort. /A kiss/
I gasped. Staring at him, I decided, /If you behave, then maybe I will/
He smiled, a genuine smile (A/N Gasp! He never smiles unless it's after a kill!). He muttered aloud, "I'll hold you to your word."
I gulped. It's going to be harder than it looks. I probably can't even muster up the courage to look at him after the talent show. Sighing, I said back to Hiei, "I know you will."
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Shock! Well, at least they're not in denial! ^_^ Sorry if it wasn't funny enough. Gomen nasai to Jenny, who absolutely hates yaoi *sigh*
I'm putting in the actual lyrics of Wild Wind in the talent show.
P.S. I can't update too much, school's starting Monday . . . Oh well.
Review!
