Yusuke! You Jerk!
Chapter 6: The Last Straw!
"Is there no one else?" thought Keiko on her walk home from the horribly silent date with Hiei," Let's see I've dated Kurama, Kuwabara, and Hiei and none of them are good guys for me. So who's left?" Keiko got to her house still thinking when her mother came up to her and said," Keiko, your friend Botan came by today. She wants to meet you tomorrow morning at ten in the morning" Then Keiko was hit by an idea, Koenma. "Thanks for telling me Mom!" Keiko yelled as she raced up the stairs. "I know who to ask! I'll ask Koenma! But I better do it tomorrow it's kinda late. I'll ask Botan to bring me to Reikai tomorrow morning then we can have a date that night! Well I should sleep I've got a big day tomorrow!" And Keiko slept soundly that night.
The next morning Keiko woke up at 7:00, spent 20 minutes more than average choosing her outfit and doing her hair. And decided she wanted to walk to the mall. Botan would find her where ever she was at the time, so Keiko decided to do some shopping. It wasn't too long after Keiko had finished looking around, when Botan showed up. "Hey Botan!" Keiko greeted. "Hello Keiko! I know I'm a bit early. So what do you want to do today?"Botan asked. "Well Botan, I was wondering if I could go to Reikai today. I want to ask Koenma something." answered Keiko. "OK let's go now then!" exclaimed Botan and off they went to Reikai.
Botan, why did you bring Keiko here?" asked Koenma when Botan brought Keiko into his office. "Well Keiko wants to ask you something Koenma sir." responded Botan. "What I wanted to ask you Koenma is if you'll go out with me tonight." Keiko asked. Botan's mouth dropped open. Koenma stared at Keiko for a second then rather casually said, "My schedule's full Keiko, sorry." Botan then went over to Koenma's daily planner. "But Koenma you're not doing anything all day." Botan commented. Koenma started sweating nervously, on one hand he could bring Keiko out and get fried by Yusuke; on the other hand he could make an excuse. He chose an excuse. "Oh but my afternoon IS full Botan, remember last week I asked you out and you accepted?" "You did? I did?" asked Botan and seeing Koenma's get me out of this or your as good as dead face Botan said," Oh that, must've slipped my mind!" (Of course there was no date, remember this is a Keiko/Yusuke fanfic.)Keiko of course, could see right through this and was quite upset, but she held it and said," Oh. OK, no problem." Then Botan flew Keiko back to Ningenkai and Keiko insisted on dropping her off under the big oak tree in the park where she and Yusuke had broken up. After dropping Keiko off, Botan went to Yusuke's house. Yusuke answered the door. "It's time Yusuke, Keiko's really upset. You should go apologize. I'll fly you to the park." Botan said. "Right on time. I just did a little shopping today and bought an apology." Yusuke replied. "What's that supposed to mean?" asked Botan."None of your bee's wax Botan." Yusuke remarked," Let's get going now, and remember no paparazzi." Botan put on an innocent look," Would I tell. Little old me?" And Yusuke boarded the oar and off they went. Keiko was weeping silently, she was sitting under a weeping willow by the lake instead of the oak tree it was a bit too noisy there and the weeping willow reflected her mood. She was crying, but she didn't know what for. She could survive without a boyfriend. Yet somehow she felt incomplete without Yusuke, they were completely opposite, but somehow she was the only one who understood Yusuke and Yusuke was the only one who understood her. It was strange. It was sunset and just as the last rays of sunlight touched the waters of the lake, Yusuke appeared. She noticed he was dressed nicer than usual, and had something behind his back. As he approached the moonlight seemed to brighten the park. Keiko wiped her eyes and wondered if she was imagining things. "Hey Keiko." said Yusuke softly. Keiko got up"Yusuke" she stammered. She ran to him. They embraced. Then Keiko looked up crying and muttered,"Yusuke, you jerk. Why don't you spend time with me anymore? You're always somewhere else." "I'm sorry Keiko. I haven't spent enough time with you. I wanted to make it up to you. So about two months ago I saw you looking at something in a shop window and I thought you like it if I got it for you, but I didn't have enough money to buy it for you, so I got a job and have been working really hard to save enough money to get it for you. And well, I finally got enough to buy it for you." Yusuke gave Keiko the box he had been holding." Here Keiko it's for you. Do you forgive me?" Keiko opened the box and gasped," Yusuke did you really work to buy this for me?" Yusuke nodded," I forgive you Yusuke. A hundred times over." Inside the box was the necklace Keiko had wanted and it was engraved. It said,"Yusuke & Keiko Forever" They hugged each other for a moment more... then flash. "Gotcha' Uremeshi!" Kuwabara yelled as he stepped out of the bushes with Hiei, Kurama, Koenma and Botan," Sorry but it was just too good of an opportunity to miss." Keiko and Yusuke blushed furiously, Kurama laughed, Hiei cracked a smile, Koenma fell to the ground in a fit of laughter, and Botan was trying hard not to laugh. Suddenly Yusuke exploded," Kuwabara!!!" And all was back to normal in the world of Yusuke and Keiko.
