----: This is becoming a real pain to type. This thingie up here you are reading now... possibly. We're movin' right along! Movin' right along! Dee- dee-dee-dum-dum-dee-dee-dee! Hoorah! Ok, enough of me wasting your precious time with this insignificant chatter. Don't I sound intelligent? Don't worry, it's just a few seconds before it passes. *bing!* Ok, over.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
*This was the decision I made detective & I'm content with my decision,* Hiei says to Yusuke telepathically, glancing at him.
Yusuke smiles after getting over the shock, *Well, I'm glad to hear it & I'm sure that Yukina feels the same way.*
Yukina takes Hiei's hand & pulls a bit, "I want you to come with me to talk with Keiko & Shizuru."
He looks at her & nods, still smiling, "I suppose that I could tolerate those two."
*Don't you dare get fresh with Keiko, not that I think you will,* the detective warns Hiei telepathically.
Hiei chuckles & glances over at Yusuke, *I just don't know if I can comply with that request. She would make a suitable mate-*
"HIEI!!!" Yusuke shouts angrily, using his voice this time.
Yukina jumps a bit & Hiei is actually close to laughing at Yusuke's expression.
The mischievous koorime smirks, his eyes twinkling, *What? You disagree?*
Yusuke's fiery temper suddenly cools down & he matches Hiei's smirk, *Yes, because I thought that you & Shizuru make a good couple. You two look so 'cute' together.*
Hiei blinks & blushes a bit before becoming angry, "DETECTIVE!!!"
"CHILDREN!!!" Shizuru & Keiko both shout at the same time at the both of them.
They immediately stop & look at the two girls, blinking twice.
"Yusuke! You jerk! Mrs. Minamino invited us to this party & you two are fighting!" Keiko exclaims, glaring at him severely.
Yusuke backs away a bit, shielding himself with his hands, "Keiko! But I- what the hell! HE STARTED IT!!!"
The rather immature 'man' pointed at Hiei while shouting at Keiko. Keiko's face doesn't change at this & Shizuru decides to try her luck.
She steps towards Yusuke & Hiei, cracking her knuckles, "Looks like you two need to be taught a lesson..."
Yusuke's & even Hiei's face pales at this & they back away. Yusuke tries to make a run for it, but ends up running smack into the back of the front door when it opens. He falls down onto his back, his head spinning.
Kurama peeks around the door at him & blinks, "Yusuke?"
After getting over the shock of seeing him, Yusuke quickly scrambles behind him, "Save me!"
The kitsune eyes him suspiciously, "Why? What did you do to get in trouble THIS time?"
As if to answer his question, Shizuru comes walking towards the two. Yusuke gulps & attempts to make himself invisible to her.
Shizuru ignores the cowering Yusuke & smiles at Kurama, "Well, look what the cat dragged in. Wasn't Botan supposed to come with you?"
On cue, Botan peeks at her from behind Kurama & smiles brightly, "Oh yeah, I'm here. I'm just tagging along behind Kurama."
She hugs Shizuru, "I haven't seen you for ages Shizuru! How's life been treating ya? Are you doing ok? What's been happening?"
Shizuru chuckles lightly, "Botan, we're not playing 20 questions. One question at a time please."
Botan glances back at Kurama & he smiles mischeviously, nodding slowly. The ferrygirl mirrors his expression for a moment before turning back to Shizuru, grabbing her by the wrist, and dragging her to a corner of the room.
Shizuru blinks while being dragged along, "Botan! What the hell are you doing???"
Botan gives her an innocent smile, "Oh, nothing. I just want to talk to you in private, that's all."
While Botan does this, Kurama makes his way over to Hiei, "Hello Hiei, mind if I talk to you?"
Hiei glances at him & narrows his eyes out of suspicion, "Yes kitsune? Are you up to no good again?"
"I just wanted to talk to you & you immediately think that I'm up to no good. I'm surprised Hiei, don't you trust me?" Kurama teases, causing Hiei to cock an eyebrow.
The koorime snorts & crosses his arms, "Fine, spit it out."
Kurama smiles normally, but his eyes dance with amusement, "Are Shizuru & yourself together yet?"
Hiei nearly chokes at this & glares at Kurama, his glare wavering, "What? What makes you think that her & I will get together to form a 'couple' as you humans put it?"
"Well, one: You both are stubborn. Two: You both like to fight. Three: You both are strong. Four: You both like to hassle Kuwabara..." Kurama replies, counting off on his fingers.
Hiei begins twitching, "That... does not... mean a thing!"
Kurama smirks, "Really now? I saw you blushing whenever she was standing next to you."
A blush creeps up on Hiei's cheeks & he looks away, "Hn. What do you know? And what if I actually did like her? Not that I do, keep in mind. Why would you be so interested in it & butt in? Stupid fool."
Kurama just continues smiling despite being insulted, "Hiei, you & I have known each other for a long time. I can tell when you're lying & I can read your emotions like an open book. Why not just admit it & get together with her?"
Hiei glances at him through narrowed eyes & looks away a moment later, "I'm a demon & Shizuru is a human woman. There is a vast difference between the two & one is meant to despise the other."
Kurama rolls his eyes a bit, "Come off it Hiei. There's one thing that a demon hates more than a human & that's the Reikai people. I'm a demon, or rather a half-demon, and Botan is one of those Reikai people, but I still love her."
The fire demon doesn't respond & glances at Botan & Shizuru as the two walk towards Kurama & himself. Hiei looks at Shizuru & she returns the gaze, blushing a bit.
Kurama removes himself & is about to walk past Botan when he stops at her side.
"Botan, there's another part to this plan of mine. You & I should seperate ourselves from Hiei & Shizuru for a bit as not to arouse suspicions," Kurama whispers without even glancing at her.
Botan nods & walks with him to go talk to Yukina, who at this time was back over by Kuwabara.
Meanwhile, Hiei & Shizuru refrain from striking up a conversation with one another until Shizuru decides to be brave.
"So, it looks like Kurama & Botan are teaming up to try & get you & I to hook up. I take it that that's what you & Kurama were talking about?" she asks dully.
Hiei gives a small nod, "The stupid kitsune & his bubble-headed girlfriend have this crazy idea in their heads that we like each other. We don't... don't we?"
They glance at one another, blush, and quickly avert their gaze.
Shizuru swallows, but continues to keep most of her cool, "No, not at all."
Unbeknownest to them, a small figure could be seen edging his or her way up the first flight of stairs which are located right behind them, unfortunately. This could turn ugly....
