Disclaimers: I'm feeling poetic today. *Clears throat*
I don't own Yu Yu Hakusho
I don't have any money
I don't do my homework
I don't… what rhymes with money?
Ok, Hiei may be a little OOC in this and future chappies. But what do you expect from a romance fic starring Hiei?

Chapter 3 Koenma
(Tai's POV First Person)
When I woke up, the sun was already up in the sky. I found out quickly that Hiei was holding me. I blushed, and then turned away quickly, though I'm sure he saw it.
"You're up," Hiei said.
It was an extremely stupid thing to say. Talk about stating the obvious, right? "Yeah, I'm up," I replied and sat up allowing Hiei to move once again. The day was bright and promised good weather, which meant good traveling.
Kurama was up in a matter of minutes, but Yusuke and Kuwabara were still dead sleeping. We waited calmly for a bit, but, I soon discovered, Hiei wasn't very patient.
"Get your lazy ass up," Hiei demanded poking at Kuwabara. He did the same to Yusuke and wore a heavy scowl all the while; who can say grumpy with a capital G?
Once they started to stir, Hiei came back toward me and stood by me. It bugged me a bit because I was thinking that he thought me too weak to take care of myself, but cheered up quite a bit realizing it meant he cared about me. I totally did not believe it was coincidence even though it probably was that he just happened to come back to me.
Yusuke must've been thinking the same thing because he was grinning cockily toward Hiei. I saw Hiei glare daggers back at Yusuke. Kurama looked up and laughed a second, and Hiei glared daggers at him, too. Tension was mounting. I could tell by his glare that he might've killed Yusuke and/or Kurama if the oaf didn't say anything.
"So, are we going to eat, or what?" asked Kuwabara, yawning. It was such a stupid thing to say in the midst of such tension, so stupid that I couldn't help but crack up, laughing and pointing at Kuwabara.
Hiei seemed to be thinking the same thing because a smirk was on his face. Kuwabara, being the idiot that he was, said, "What, are you planning to eat me?" He sounded so serious that my dying laughter came back full force and I fell over laughing. When I could finally steady myself, I stood up allowing Hiei to help pull me off the ground.
"Thanks," I said cheerfully.
Hiei turned away and walked a few paces. He turned to look back and asked irritably, "Are we going, or not?" His tone was extremely demanding, much like my brother's and Kai's. It made me smirk a bit. I think I like him a lot.

(Third Person)
"Koenma, I've just gotten word from Yusuke, it's pretty important," said Botan, Koenma's blue-haired assistant. (A/N I'm not really sure what Botan is)
"So tell me," replied Koenma sporting his suave teenage form.
"It seems that they met up with a female fire demon by the name of Taikana. Their current status: heading this way with her," Botan answered.
"Do we have any files on this girl?" asked Koenma.
"Sir, it seems that Taikana's family was wanted for some crime of attempted theft, it says that they attempted many times. In the files we have, it also says that two bounty hunters killed their whole family, including Taikana. Our files should be accurate. We need to met with this girl before reaching further conclusions."
"Right, they'll be here soon," Koenma said.
Botan started to pace back and forth muttering something about slow travel these days.

(Hiei's POV First Person)
I was a bit irritated. Ok, a lot irritated, and I don't even know why. I didn't sleep too good because I was scared that Tai might be woken up if I took my arms off her, and that left me in an extremely uncomfortable position, to sleep anyway. But that didn't disturb me too much. In fact I liked having her in my arms, combing my fingers through her hair…
I didn't just think that.
Yes you did.
No.
Yes.
Just go away would you, how could you know?
I know because I am you, you idiot.
Ha, you just called yourself an idiot because I am you.
I know why I was irritated. It hit me like a rock. I was irritated with this stupid voice in my head which sounds suspiciously like me. Kurama was talking to me, but I wasn't listening and just nodded a few times, well every time he paused anyway. He noticed I wasn't listening when I agreed that I was a "stupid, arrogant, dumbass who can't listen." He'd hold that one over me forever.
We finally reached the doorway into Koenma's giant building. Botan dragged us, literally dragging Kuwabara, up to Koenma's office while talking excitedly to Taikana. Taikana looked blankly at Botan and Botan kept throwing questions at her, all of which were unanswered.
We went into the office of Koenma. We were greeted with a, "Man, you guys sure define slow," from Koenma.

Dedicated to OLIVER and GARRICK because they are the coolest guys I know.
Thanks for all you guys' reviews. I just sit down at my computer and refresh every two seconds to see if I got more reviews. Pathetic, huh?
Comments, Questions, Flames, and Death Threats, all ok.
I love having conversations with myself.
No you don't.
Yes I do.
No you don't.
YES I DO!
Then why are you yelling at me?
Uhhh…
Told you so.
Just shut up and stop talking to me.
But you like it.
NO I DON'T.
My mind is evil.
This chappie is really short, but oh well. I just want to get something up today. It's only about 900 words. Not even 900. Including the "Not even 900", it is more than 900.
