Touya and Yusuke arrived about 15 minutes ahead of the others, so Touya set water to boil for tea, and Yusuke was a lazy ass, as usual. - Touya lay down own the couch, piling a pillow on Yusuke's lap to rest his head on. He closed his eyes, smiling, glad to be back, as Yusuke massaged the nape of his neck and stroked his hair.

Kurama, Yukina, Hiei, and Kuwabara were next to show up, then a moment behind came Botan, Atsuko and Keiko. Touya reluctantly got up and made room for the others on the couch, and Yusuke pulled him into his lap so he sat turned to the side, leaning against the armrest and back of the couch. "Hey! Long time no see!" Atsuko said, waving at Yusuke and Touya, she came over and hugged them both, and Yusuke was shocked that he didn't smell alcohol on her breath.

"Hey Atsuko-san! I actually missed you! Isn't that great?!" Yusuke said, hugging back with one arm ((the one not already around Touya, you fools!)).

Touya grinned, also hugging Atsuko-san. "I missed you too, Atsuko-san."

Atsuko grinned, "See, I knew you two cared, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep-"

"Atsuko-san, you should stop now, Touya's beginning to blush again." Keiko pointed out, grinning.

Atsuko laughed and finished, "Deep down!" Kurama and the others all laughed too. They all proceeded to catch each other up, mostly same old, same old, all around.

Things got interesting when a lag in conversation made Keiko suggest, "Hey, ya'know what would be fun? A game of truth or dare! Since we haven't seen each other in a while and stuff!"

Kurama, Atsuko, Botan, Touya, Yukina and even Hiei assented with out complaint, Yusuke, and Kuwabara, however, held out. "Are you two afraid to play?" Keiko provoked, grinning maliciously.

"NO!" Both said in unison.

"Then why not?" Keiko asked.

Yusuke sighed and Kuwabara shuffled and they both agreed. "Who's first then?" Yusuke asked.

Keiko shrugged. "How about Botan?" No one had a problem with this, so Botan squealed with delight and turned to Hiei. "Truth or dare, Hiei?"

"Dare."
