Well I'm not going to waster too much time on the author's note... so... I'm done.

(Yusuke's POV)
"HELLO KURAMA!" the 'Previously Down-Stairs Posse' cried out as we entered Kurama's room again—minus Yukina.
We all gawked at Hiei then, who was preoccupied with hugging Kurama's shoulders, chuckling giddily, and braiding Kurama's hair between glompings.
So it was true. This Hiei really was infatuated with Kurama. Well... that explained the flowers.
Kurama spotted us all and became flushed.
That was a look I'd never before seen on Kurama. And to tell the truth, it was almost funnier than Hiei acting like a kitten (well... that's what his new attitude reminded me of, anyway)!
"Hiei, please..." Kurama protested, pushing Hiei—who was now putting the flowers in Kurama's hair—back a little in embarrassment. "I'll spend time with you later, but I just need to talk to them for a little—HIEI!" Kurama cried out as Hiei began to fondle his chest and explore Kurama's neck with his tongue.
We all stared in stupidity.
And I thought Kurama looked embarrassed before...
"What's the matter? You told me this is what you wanted, fox."
Kuwabara nearly fell over in shock, Shizuru started laughing, Keiko became nervous and I... I was about ready to punch Kuwabara and yell, 'I TOLD YOU SO!'
But clearly Kurama had some things to explain to us all.
"Hey Kurama, do you need any help?" I offered, looking over to Kurama sympathetically.
"Don't worry Yusuke, I'll—"
"YUSUKE!?" Hiei yelled, pushing Kurama over beneath him and clutching onto his shirt possessively. "You mentioned him before..." he continued, this time in a lighter, softer voice, and he turned to me, showing a sad, concerned, worried expression, then moving his glance back to Kurama. "You don't... like him... do you!?"
Everyone switched from whatever they were doing to point and snicker at me.
"Am I not... fulfilling your needs, Kura?" Hiei asked, looking at Kurama with a painfully cute frown.
(Kurama's POV)
I tried my best to block the others out and concentrate on the ever changing Hiei.
"I don't need anyone else, Hiei," I told him, as softly and gently as I could.
"Just me?" he asked, a smile cracking its way through onto his lips.
I sigh, contented, my heart fluttering at the mere sight of Hiei's smile, again reminding me that now, in his current state... Hiei was not burdened by pain or doubt. And he was so clearly aware of it. I didn't want to take that away.
"Just you," I assured him, reaching up to lightly kiss his cheek.
(Kuwabara's POV)
The group still stared at the two. It was truly fascinating. Here Hiei was, acting like a kitten! And Kurama... well, he was acting like a scratching post.
And Hiei continued to paw at Kurama.
"Hey, can we borrow Kurama for a minute?" I asked nervously.
Hiei turned his head slightly in my direction. His eyes were wide, his smile cute, and his expression... priceless.
He gripped onto Kurama even more tightly than he had previously.
"Be quick?" he questioned in a shy manner, tentatively moving himself off Kurama.
"Yeah..." I answered, motioning for Kurama and the others to follow me outside the room.
"We'll be done before you know it, Hiei," Kurama assured him, as everyone but Hiei left Kurama's room and the door closed behind us.
Kurama sighed heavily before lifting his head to face us all. There was clearly something on his mind....
(Shizuru's POV)
"So, what happened between you and the shrimp?" Kazuma asked Kurama accusingly, raising his eyebrow in suspicion.
"Yeah Kurama, what did you say to make him act so much... like..."
"Like a kitten," we all finished for Keiko at once.
"I... I didn't say anything!" Kurama persisted.
"Ha! A likely story!" Yusuke joked, nudging his obviously embarrassed friend in the shoulder.
"After Hiei woke up I-- ... I only said that I was glad he was all right. But he just sort of assumed that..."
My brother and Yusuke shared a devilish look.
"Yes, yes... of course," Yusuke chuckled sarcastically, as we all headed downstairs.
"Okay, now I think Kurama has some explaining to do," I stated, forcibly pushing the redhead into a chair. The rest of us encircled him.
"How did Hiei get amnesia?"
"And why exactly are you so... cozy with him?"
"How long has he been this way?"
"What is he doing wearing YOUR clothes!?"
"What have you been telling him?"
"Where did he get the money to buy flowers?"
"Have you guys, well, you know?"
"...And why don't you seem upset about this...?"

GAHH! That was such a SHORT chapter. I'm so sorry! But I'll try to get the next one out soon. And speaking of such... it will indeed be the LAST CHAPTER. So... please review so it'll be extra good, extra fast, and extra long! ::sweat:: Heh...
