Hey! Sorry that the last chapter was so short, it was all I had at the time. I also apologize for making Keiko so violent last time. Think about it though, she acts all nice all the time, don't you think there would be a little anger built up in her? Especially since she hangs around Yusuke. Also, in this story, Yusuke and Keiko have not and are not dating. Just thought I'd clear things up. Hope you enjoy this chapter! DISCLAIMER: I OWN NOTHING.

-Movie theater, 7:28 p.m.-
Keiko was waiting outside for Kuwabara and the others. She saw Kuwabara coming down the street and waved to him. He ran over and they started talking. "Hey Keiko! Thanks for doing this for me."
"Remember, you owe me!"
"I remember!"
"Where's Yukina and Hiei?"
"They said they would be here by now," he said looking at his watch. A blur appeared behind him and tapped his shoulder, which startled him, causing him to fall on his face. "Hey! Who's the wise guy?!"
"Oh shut up you oaf." Hiei said in his normal 'I give less than a rat's ass about the world' tone. Yukina started laughing at Kuwabara. "Kazuma, are you ok?"
"I'm fine as long as your here by my side, baby." He said, causing her to sweatdrop. He was about to put his arm around her, when Hiei shot him a death glare and he put his hand down quickly. "Hiei, here's the girl you'll be with tonight." He said and waved his hand to Keiko. "Are you kidding me? I thought you were the detective's girl."
"No way! Me and Yusuke decided to stay friends. Shall we?" she said and they went into the theater.
They all walked up to the snack stand and waited in line. Kuwabara ordered some popcorn for him and Yukina and went off to find some seats for them. It started to turn a little bad when Hiei went up to the counter. Especially when the cashier refered to Hiei as 'little boy.' Basically, he told the cashier where he could put his register and was pulled by his ear away from the counter by Keiko.
"You can't say stuff like that in public!"
"Why not? He insulted me and is lucky I didn't split him in half."
"Because it's rude and since your here with me you'll be nice or else!"
"Or else what?"
"Or else i'll..." she whispered something in his ear. Hiei's eyes suddenly grew very big and he just nodded and followed Keiko back up to the snack stand. "Sorry about my date here, he can be a little rude sometimes. We'll have two popcorns and two sodas." She got her order and they went off to find Kuwabara and Yukina.
Keiko and Hiei were walking down the isle and found Kuwabara and Yukina. Keiko insisted that they sit in the row in front of Kuwabara and Yukina, so they did and they sat down and chatted during the previews. "Keiko, thanks again for agreeing to this."
"No problem. But remember...."
"Yeah, yeah, I know. I owe you."
"You had better not try anything funny back there." Hiei so kindly put in. Kuwabara just made a face towards him. "I saw that."
"No you didn't"
Yes I did. I can read your mind, remember? he said evilly in thought-speak. Kuwabara just turned a little pail and sat back in his seat. "Why did you agree to this anyway Hiei?" Keiko asked curiously. "You don't seem like the dating type."
"Oh really? What type am I then?"
"You seem more like the 'I'm bored so i'll kill everything in sight' type'."
"I am. But I wanted to make sure the oaf didn't try anything funny with Yukina."
"So you got roped into a double date?"
"Actually, the double date thing was Yukina's idea. I just wanted to chaperone, so to speak."
"Well it's not like I really wanted to do this myself. I just did it because Kuwabara is my friend. It's not like your the best date in the world." Hiei took a second to take what she said in. "I could be a good date if I wanted to be."
"Oh really? How many girlfriends have you had?"
"The movie's starting." he said. She knew he was avoiding the subject but he was right so they sat back and watched the movie.
During the movie, Keiko went to grab some popcorn at the same time Hiei did and ended up grabbing each other's hand. Hiei pulled away quickly and said "Uh...sorry about that.", which shocked the hell out of Keiko. She looked over to him and could barely tell cause of the darkness, but she could swear that he was blushing! This of course shocked her even more but she decided to think about it later and go on watching the movie.
-After the movie, outside the theater, around 9:00-
Kuwabara and Yukina walked out of the movie hand-in-hand and Hiei wasn't killing Kuwabara only because Keiko had her arm around his. "I'd better go on home before Shizuru decides she wants to kill me for being late. You gonna be alright going home Keiko?"
"I'll be fine. Thanks for the date Hiei!" She said in a tone which made Hiei start blushing again. Kuwabara noticed this of course and began to laugh. "HAHAHAHA! I can't believe it! Hiei's BLUSHING! HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!" He stopped when Hiei popped him upside the head. The four of them said bye and went on home.
-Keiko's room-
Keiko walked in her room and plopped down on her bed. That date could have gone by better. she thought to herself. Hiei being sweet, HA! There's a thought! I can see it now, him all dressed up in a tux waiting outside for me so he can whisk me away! she started to giggle at the thought when her phone started to ring. She crawled over to it and picked up.
"Hello?"
"Are you sure this is how it works?......Cause I don't here anything, that's why."
"Who is this?"
"Oh! I hear her now! Hello!"
"Who's calling here?"
"It's me, Hiei."
"Hiei?! Since when do you have a phone? And how did you get my number?!"
"Uh, listen." he said avoiding the question. "I was wondering if maybe...um..." She could tell that he was blushing again by the tone of his voice. "If maybe you wanted to go out again sometime?" Keiko's first thought was 'SAY WHAT?!' but then she thought about it for a little while. "Um, is it ok if I sleep on it?"
"Uh, sure I guess. Bye." He hung up quickly. She put the phone back on the receiver and laid back down in her bed, thinking now about the phone conversation. Ok, that was really weird. Either i've lost my mind or a fire demon just called me and asked me out. She kept that thought in her mind as she passed out on her bed.
