Disclaimer: I do not own YYH. -bleh-
K.H.: Yay! One step closer to the end! Depending on how long this part is, I might include the thing I was talking about before. Confusing, eh? Ah, who cares what I say right here anyway? The story is the only thing important, but I would like to address some matters.
For one, if you're all for the Kurama & Botan pairing, thank you. If you're for the Kurama & Hiei pairing, I respect your opinions & won't say anything bad, but please don't go on the reviews & say: "Kurama & Hiei forever!" or something like that, it's a tad annoying. If you want to read a Kurama & Hiei pairing fic, there are hundreds of them here. There's only few Kurama & Botan, so leave us alone, please. Now, for the other thing, I would like to thank all of you for reviewing! I feel so loved!
Typing 'K.H.' takes too long... how about I type in Kitsuneko (Said like Kit-sue-nee-ko) or just Neko? Believe it or not, I type faster without putting the periods in. Anyway, that is all & now you can stop reading my blabber & get to reading the fic.
VOTE: Kitsuneko or Neko! Include your vote in a review!
Kurama & Botan had successfully been dating for the last few years. He had graduated high school at the top of his class & is currently enrolled in college. He had chosen a college near home so that he could quickly leave if someone, friends or family, needed him. Botan would visit his dormitory sometimes while he was alone & keep him company.
It was December & snow had fallen, blanketing the ground. Kurama had been left alone while the people he had been sharing the dormitory with stepped out to a party.
He sighs, "College isn't meant for constant partying. They'll just learn the hard way I suppose."
He hears a knock on the window & looks over to find Botan hovering on her oar.
He walks over to the window & opens it, "Hello there Botan, come on in, I wasn't expecting you."
She nods gratefully & flies in, "It's chilly out there!"
"Then why are you flying around, you'll get a pneumonia," he says while latching the window shut.
She sits down on a couch & pulls out an envelope, "I was asked to deliver this letter to you. It's from your mother."
He accepts it, opens the envelope, and reads it, "There's going to be a Christmas party next week."
Botan smiles while rubbing her arms, "Well, isn't that delightful! I just love Christmas parties!"
Kurama tosses her a blanket, "Looks like I'll have to go shopping for gifts."
She wraps herself in the blanket, shivering, "Me too. What do you want?"
"Nothing really," he replies. "What would you like?"
She thinks for a moment, "Anything from you is good enough. Don't get anything expensive, ok?"
He smiles & nods, "Ok."
She eyes him closely, "You promise? You can be a sly little fox sometimes...."
He chuckles, "I promise."
She smiles, "Well, now that that's settled, I'll be getting on my way in a few moments... just as soon as I warm up a bit more."
He takes a seat next to her & wraps an arm around her. She leans up into him & he rubs her arm a bit, attempting to generate some heat.
She grins, "Thanks, I'm starting to feel a lot warmer now!"
He smiles, "Well, that's good. I don't want you getting ill for Christmas."
She nods, "That would make an awful Christmas present."
"Yes, it would," Kurama says, agreeing.
She stands up, sheds the blanket, and stretches, "Well, I need to get back. I'll see you at the party I guess."
He rises to his feet & looks at her, smiling gently, "Fly safely, ok?"
They give each other a quick kiss before Botan opens the window & flies out on her oar.
Kurama watches her until she flies out of sight & then closes the window.
He smiles mischievously, "Promises must be broken for what I'm planning, sorry Botan."
The sly kitsune returns to his studies, looking forward to the Christmas party & his big surprise.

It was Christmas morning, the day that the party was going to take place at the Minamino residence. Shiori had woken up extra early that morning to arrange everything, with the help of Shuichi & Mr. Hatanaka of course.
By the time everything was arranged, guests were beginning to arrive. The first to arrive were Yusuke & Keiko, who were soon followed by Kuwabara & the ice apparition Yukina. Each member of the group was laden with gifts for their friends.
Keiko walks up to Shiori & smiles, "Thank you for inviting us to your party Mrs. Minamino."
Yukina appears at Keiko's side & bows slightly, smiling gently, "Yes, thank you."
Shiori smiles, "Oh, it was no problem at all. I'm just glad that my son has friends, and good ones at that."
Meanwhile, Yusuke & Kuwabara stand in one corner of the room, each with a drink in their hand.
Yusuke looks at Kuwabara, "So, what have you been up to Kuwabara? I haven't seen you for a few weeks."
Kuwabara takes a gulp of his drink before he replies, "Oh, nothin' really. Yukina & I hung out for a bit. Koenma found a way for her to come to this party with me. Life's been pretty good, but how have you been?"
The orange-haired teen smirks, "Did Keiko put you in the hospital yet?"
Yusuke snorts, "Yeah, you wish Kuwabara. Then, you might actually have a chance of beating me."
Kuwabara growls at this remark, but Yusuke just smiles & continues, "As for how my life's been going, it's been ok I guess. I'm working two different jobs & the pay ain't half bad."
At that moment, he senses someone & grins, "Looks like we have a 'little' visitor. Let me go drag him in."
Yusuke walks outside & returns a few minutes later dragging a ticked off Hiei. He lets go when Hiei threatens to shove his katana up Yusuke's ass.
Kuwabara chuckles, "Hello there runt, too afraid to come in are we?"
Hiei shoots him a glare, "I wasn't afraid... oh wait, that was a lie. I was afraid of seeing your ugly mug again."
Kuwabara lunges at Hiei, but Yusuke manages to hold him back, "Cool it Kuwabara!"
Kazuma glares at Hiei, growls, and storms off to another area of the room, "Stupid half-pint jerk."
Yusuke looks from Kazuma to Hiei & smiles a bit, "I see you haven't changed much Hiei, just as rude as ever."
Hiei lets out a "Hn." before crossing his arms, "I see that idiot hasn't changed either, just as stupid as he always was."
The detective nods, "Yeah, hot-headed too."
Hiei notices Yukina for the first time & his eyes widen, "Yukina's here???"
Yusuke glances at Yukina, "Yeah, she came with Kuwabara. I guess you weren't around at that time to see them."
Hiei fumes, "She came with that incompetent moron??? If he lays one finger on her-..."
"-you'll kill him. I know, I've heard that line before, but that would make your sister sad & I know that is something that you don't like to do," Yusuke finishes.
The koorime looks away, "Yes, so I shall spare that moron's life for now."
Yusuke chuckles a bit before a question pops into his head, "Hey Hiei, I forgot to ask this pretty much everytime I've seen you for awhile now. Remember that incident a few years back with Buchiru & everything?"
Hiei returns his eyes to Yusuke, "Yes, what of it?"
Yusuke shrugs, "Well, not that it's any of my business, but where did you disappear to? You said that you had something to take care of."
"I had to deal with my own problems which you are already aware of & were aware of at the time," the fire demon responds.
"What problems? You mean Yukina?" Yusuke asks.
Hiei gives a slight nod, "I needed some time to think & make decisions. While observing Kurama around that time, I found possible solutions to my questions."
Yusuke blinks, "Like what?"
Hiei is about to reply when Yukina runs up to him & hugs him, "Brother! I didn't know you were coming!"
Hiei smiles & returns the hug, "I didn't know either."
Yusuke is shocked to find out what Hiei meant, Hiei told Yukina???
