~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Kurama plopped down his couch, and closed his eyes. He was exhausted. The moment he and Natalie had left the temple, Koenma had approached them and said he forgot one quick detail; her ears and tail. He quickly taped them with the end of his finger, and flew away before Natalie could slice his head off. She was distraught without them, and the only thing she did while they walked to Kurama's house was curse about a certain 'royal brat' and mumble how naked she felt with out them.

Lucky for Kurama, his mom was away on a business trip and wouldn't be back for another week and a half. He'd explain why a strange, grumpy little girl was living with him later.

Just as they were about to turn onto Kurama's block, it started to pour. As they ran, he could sense Hiei's ki running also, jumping from tree to tree also making his way towards Kurama's house. Kurama smiled; whenever it rained Hiei would spend the night at his house. It would be interesting to see how Natalie and Hiei would act in each others presence.

Kurama pushed open his front door, and ran inside, Natalie at his heels. "Hn. I hate rain.." she mumbled, wrapping her arms around her self. "You look cold, their are some blankets in the closet if you want one" He proceeded to wring out his long red hair.

"I'm not cold, I never get cold" she answered dully. "Maybe that means you're a fire demon, Hiei never gets cold either" Kurama wondered out loud. "Hn" Natalie sat down on couch and closed her eyes. "Since it's raining I'll sleep here tonight, but tomorrow I got the tree"

The red head shook his head. "No. I get the couch tonight, you can sleep in my bed while you stay here" he pointed to the stairs and indicated for her to follow. She sighed, defeated, and followed him.

"This is my room, use whatever you want just don't go in my closet" Kurama said to her. "Your soaking wet so you'll have to change.." Rummaging through his closet he pulled put a black t-shirt. "none of my stuff will fit you, so you'll just have to wear this" Kurama smiled inwardly. 'Hope Hiei doesn't find out I'm lending her HIS clothes' he also threw her a pair of black pajama pants (also Hiei's). "If you need me for anything, just call!" he grabbed his own green pajama's and left the room, before she could answer.

Natalie looked around the room, inspecting all the ningen objects. When she was satisfied, she put on the black clothing and slipped under the covers. After a minute of staring at Kurama's lamp, she figured out how to turn the light off.

She lay in the bed, wide awake. She had had a LONG day, but she couldn't sleep. She thought about the people she had met to day; a royal toddler, a bubbly grim reaper, an ice maiden, two ningens, a fox, and a rude fire demon. 'Wow. What a assortment of new friends' she thought unhappily. 'I don't wanna be here. I wanna go back to the Makai, for more reasons than one..

'How dare Suzaku treat me like that! After all I've done for him! After all he did for ME! I swear to Kami, I'll kill him!' she sighed and rolled over. 'Ok, this is what I'll do; I help these losers with some of their 'missions', and eventually we'll get a case that will take us to the Makai. When we do, I'll ditch them, and seek out that ass hole Suzaku!' satisfied with her decision, she closed her eyes, and let sleep take her.

Hiei jumped up into a branch of the tree next to Kurama's window. "I hate rain.." he mumbled as he brushed a strand of raven hair out of his eyes. He pushed open the window, and leapt inside. All was silent as he shut the window behind him. He took of his long black cloak, and draped it over Kurama's desk chair. He didn't care that Kurama would yell at him in the morning for leaving his wet clothes on the wood, and his muddy boots on his clean rug. He was too tired to care. So much had happened today. So much between him and Natalie. Their was the bath, and that whole fight over the sweet snow, and then he almost had to kiss her! What was wrong with Kurama, thinking he would actually LIKE that bitch of a demon!

Nope, he didn't like that skinny, skimpy dressing, loud mouth, sword wielding bitch at all! He would never admit it to anyone, but he was slightly impressed with her sword skills. He was also curious as to what type of demon she was. If she was trained properly, she might be a valuable asset to the Reikit Tantei. He'd talk to Kurama about it in the morning. He walked over to the bed, and climbed in, oblivious to the fact that their was another in the bed.

Down stairs, Kurama could sense Hiei's ki in his room. "Uh oh, Hiei doesn't know Natalie is up there!" he ran up the stairs and pushed open his door as quietly as he could (which wasn't very quiet considering it woke up the two sleeping Youkai) "Kurama what are you doing?! And who is this.AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HIEI!!!! What are YOU doing here!?!?! Get out of this bed! NOW!!!" Natalie punched the confused Hiei out of the bed and into Kurama's book shelf. Mounds of text books fell on the half asleep Jaganshi, before he could jump out of the way.

"Hiei!" Kurama shouted, running to lift up the heavy book shelf. The hundreds of books burst into flame and the book shelf was thrown to the side. Hiei stood there, his body engulfed in flames. "What the hell is the matter with you onna!? Where do you get off punching me like that!? I ought to mmmph mmh haahp!!" Kurama placed his hand over Hiei's mouth, and carried him out of the room, shouting back apologies as he went. "Gomen Natalie! Go back to sleep!"

When Kurama was back in the living room he tossed Hiei onto the couch forcefully. "Hiei what's wrong with you!? What were you two doing in the same bed!?" he screeched. When Hiei didn't answer, Kurama's face lit up in a mischievous grin. "Ah, I know what you were doing; you like her so much you already wanna sleep with her! Ewww! You've only known her for a day, you sicko! Wait a while before you - *SLAP*" Hiei slapped his so-called 'friend' in the side of the head. "I swear Kurama, you have a one track mind! I was NOT doing THAT! I DON'T like her, so just shut the fuck up!" Hiei yelled, extremely embarrassed.

"S-u-r-e..than why are you blushing? And where is your shirt?" Kurama asked him, rubbing his head. "Uh.I left my cape upstairs..on your chair" he added quietly. "Hiei! I told you never to leave your wet clothes on the wood furniture!" Kurama pouted. Hiei sighed and rolled his eyes 'how did I know he was gonna say that?'

"You should put a shirt on" Kurama suggested. "I would except NATALIE IS WEARING IT! Why did you give her my clothes?!"

Kurama scratched the back of his head. "Oh yea, I forgot I gave her those.well, she doesn't have anything else, so she's gonna have to use them for a while"

"What about me? I'm wet, and cold!" Hiei pouted and crossed his arms. "I'm gonna go save my poor chair, and you get you something to wear. Stay here" He said pushing Hiei back unto the couch. "Hn."

Kurama Knocked before entering the room. Natalie was sitting on his bed, reading a book. "Hey Natalie, gomen for before, what are you reading? Oh my God! That's my journal! Gimme that!" he snatched the book from her hands, and locked it in the top drawer of his desk

Natalie smirked and pulled her blonde hair out of her face. "So what was Hiei doing in the same bed as me?" she asked. Kurama shrugged. "Actually I dunno, but he's really embarrassed about it. He seems to always be embarrassed around you, especially when I dared you two to kiss!"

It all came flooding back to Natalie; Kurama almost made him kiss her! Now was her chance for revenge! She closed her eyes and concentrated. Slowly, she began to levitate of the bed. She opened her eyes to see Kurama had his back to her, and was looking in his closet for something. She smirked and snapped her fingers. A blue flame appeared in the palm of her right hand. She softly blew on it, and it landed rite behind Kurama. He stopped what he was doing. "Hey, whats that spell? Smells like something is burning..AHHHH!! its meeee!!!" he turned his neck around, and saw that the clothe of his pajama's had caught fire! "OW!! It burns!!! Heeelllppp mmeeeee!!!!" he ran out of his room and into the bathroom. Without thinking, he sat in the toilet, putting out the flames. He sighed and got back up. "NATALIE!!" he screamed. She was leaning against the door frame, smiling innocently. "Good night Kurama.." she closed the door behind her, and a faint click was heard. She had locked it.

Hiei, who had sent this whole spectacle, was laughing his head off. Kurama glared at him as he walked by, his wet pants making a squishing sound. "Not a word" he growled through clenched teeth.

Hiei smirked, and was about to open his mouth, when Kurama tossed an over sized rose colored t-shirt onto his head. "This is what you get to wear to bed." Kurama said as he made his way down the stairs. Hiei made a disgusted face as peeled off his wet garments, and slipped into the 'pink' clothing.

When he got back down stairs, Kurama was laying on the couch, rubbing his temples. Hiei sat down in the reclining chair, and closed his eyes. "G'nite K'rama.." he mumbled.

"good night Hiei" was his reply. Hiei wanted to sleep, he really did, but his thoughts kept drifting back to Natalie. He had judged her too quickly; maybe she WOULD be an ok person. Hey, she liked to torment Kurama as much he did, she couldn't be ALL bad! 'We'll just have to see tomorrow..' he was drifting off into dream land when; "Oh shit, I forgot about your cape!" Hiei smirked into the darkness. 'Baka no kitsune.'
