Disclaimer: Before I forget again, here's my disclaimer. I do not own Yu Yu Hakusho.
It All Started with a Game
"Here, sir," Botan put down the ramen and the lemon smoothie in front of her new boss.
"Hey, thanks, cutie!" Koenma (in his baby form) said, suddenly hugging Botan's waist and gluing himself on there.
"Urm…would you mind please letting go of me, sir?" Botan asked uncomfortably, trying to pry the baby's firm fingers off of her.
But Koenma would not let go. Botan continued to try to get the baby off of her. They wrestled vigorously for about five whole minutes. I can't take this crap any further or I will die, thought Botan.
"GET OFF ME, YOU IDIOT!" Botan suddenly shouted and bopped Koenma on the head.
"OWWWWW!" Koenma fell off of Botan's waist immediately. "What'd you do that for!"
"Because you keep trying to HIT on me. You know what? Your sucky flirting skills are NEVER gonna work on me!" Botan crossed her arms and glared at the baby in front of her.
Young Koenma transformed into his teenage form and smirked.
"First of all, how'd you know I was hitting on you, huh, Botan? I was merely hugging you as a thank you for getting me my food," Koenma ran his fingers through his hair as he spoke.
Botan simply could not think of what to say back at Koenma. So, she just glared. Koenma looked down into her determined rose-colored eyes and grinned in excitement.
"So it's a staring contest, now, eh? You don't know how good I am with those," Koenma said and starting his staring.
Minutes passed by without any of them letting up. Beads of sweat ran down Koenma's forehead as he squinted until his eyes until it was so narrow it was a merely a straight line. Botan was in the lead at first. However, Koenma's squinting face began to look slightly hilarious to her. Then, even more hilarious. She felt laughter threatening to erupt from her throat. She covered her mouth in order not to let the giggles escape. Koenma was also on the edge of closing his eyes. Then, unexpectedly, he pulled Botan's eyes closed with two of his fingers.
"Hahaha! I win," Koenma announced with triumph as Botan burst out in giggles.
"You're so stupid," Botan said through her laughter, "And that was clearly cheating."
"Well, I'm still the boss here so I win," Koenma smiled goofily.
"Hahahahaha, fine, fine," Botan replied, smiling back. "Now, go eat your food quick and do your paperwork."
"Hmm, the eating part, I'll do. The paperwork part, not so sure," Koenma remarked innocently, wrapping his arms around Botan and gluing himself there again.
"Arghhh, not again! Koenma, we've got paperwork to do!" Botan tried to pull herself away again.
"Hmm…yea, that is a problem," Koenma lessened his tight grip on Botan.
"See? It is a problem. Let's go do our paperwork," Botan said, relieved that her crazy boss finally understood something.
"GEORGE! GEOOOOOOOORGE!" Koenma yelled right into Botan's ear.
She winced and looked up at him, ready to give him a scolding. However, a blue demon suddenly walked in the door.
"Oh, THERE you are, George. I've got some very, very, very, VERY important business to do with my new assistant Botan here. Do my paperwork, okay? I'm busy," Koenma told George.
George was confused at the sight before him. His master was hugging a blue haired girl! Since when did Koenma-sama get a girlfriend!...Hmm well they're clearly very much in love and I would be honored to do his paperwork for him while he makes his moves, the blue demon thought.
"Gladly, Koenma-sama!" George replied, the expression on his face showing how proud he was of his master.
"See? Problem solved," Koenma grinned down smartly at Botan, amused at the shocked look on her face.
"B-But…he's gonna do all our paperwork AND plus my job leading all the spirits to Spirit World!" Botan said, unconvinced.
"Well George is a very efficient demon, I must say. One of the best," Koenma replied, grabbing Botan's hand and leading her out of the room.
Koenma had been dragging Botan along for about 10 minutes when she finally spoke.
"Where, exactly, are we going?" she asked.
"You'll see," Koenma replied shortly.
Some time later, the two people stopped in front of a chic restaurant in Spirit World. The sign in front of the shop said 'Where All Demons Date'. They sat down at a comfy sofa in the far corner of the restaurant. When a male demon waiter came to take their orders, Koenma simply replied,
"The usual."
The waiter smiled.
"Of course, Koenma-sama. I'll be right here with your orders. Good luck on your date," the waiter winked.
"What's the usual?" Botan asked curiously.
"Oh, that. That's my expression to say that I'm too lazy to read the menu. He's just gonna bring me a lemon smoothie," Koenma replied, settling down more comfortably on the soft sofa.
"WHAT! You're crazy," Botan giggled. "Now, why've you brought me here?"
"To get you drunk—er I meant, to get you a lemon smoothie," Koenma replied.
Botan raised her eyebrows.
"Get me drunk? Why?" she asked innocently.
"Hehehehe…drunk? What are you talking about!" Koenma denied as the same waiter brought a suspicious looking drink that was definitely not a smoothie.
Botan squinted at him. Koenma sweatdropped.
"You're trying to get me drunk so you can hit on me then, huh?" she said, understanding his game now.
Koenma sighed.
"Ahh…it seems you have realized my evil plan…may I kiss you anyway?" Koenma asked, smiling the sexiest smile he could manage.
"Hmm…but isn't it a bit bad? You making out with your assistant on the first day?" Botan teased. "And plus, I'm not even drunk."
"Hmmm…bad? Nope," he smiled wider. "And plus, there's that 'lemon smoothie' over there if you're looking to get drunk."
Botan giggled again. Then, to Koenma's surprise, she picked up the glass.
"Sounds like fun!" she said cheerily and drank the whole glass in one gulp.
Koenma was definitely not prepared for this. Never would he have thought that she would actually drink the whole thing. He originally intended for her to get just a little drunk, just enough for a kiss or two. Moments later, the drink took its effect. If alcohol in the human world was strong, alcohol in the Spirit World was stronger. He could see her face get redder and her eyes get dreamier.
"This issss funnnn…." She drawled and fell onto him on the sofa.
"Urm…Botan…" Koenma shook the blue-haired girl lightly, his face getting hot and unsure of what to do.
END OF FLASHBACK
"…So I carried her home," Koenma told the whole group, who was all listening intently to the story.
"Ohh…and so you took advantage of her while she was drunk," Kurama remarked understandably.
Sounds of 'awwwwww' from Keiko, Yusuke, and Kuwabara were heard.
"Shuddup, idiots! I did NOT do anything to her when she was unconscious!" Koenma denied.
"Then can we get to the part where you actually DO something?" Hiei remarked impatiently.
"O, ho, ho! Don't tell me you're interested in this stuff too, Hiei," Kuwabara teased.
"Shuddup, asshole," Hiei said, crossing his arms.
"Okay, okay guys, on with the story please. Go on, Botan," Keiko said.
"Arghh..I'll get you guys for this!" Botan pouted. "So he carried me home and then…"
FLASHBACK
Koenma threw Botan onto the the sofa in his room.
"Arghhh….you're so heavy, you know that?" Koenma cried, stretching his arms.
Unfortunately, Botan did hear that.
"Whaddid you say, you idiot? I'm NOT heavy!" Botan shakily got up from the sofa. "This isn't fun anymore! First, you take me to a restaurant without any food and then you take me right home. You're so mean."
"Hey! I'm not mean! I made you skip work!"
"Without any food!" Botan stuck out her lower lip. "You ARE mean!"
"NO!"
"YESSS!"
"NOOO!"
"YESSSS!"
Argh I gotta make her shut up before anyone hears us, Koenma racked his brain for a plan.
"Fine, fine. I AM mean. Happy?"
The drunk Botan considered it for a moment and sat down again on the sofa.
"Yea, okay," she finally decided as Koenma sat down beside her. "But only if you kiss me like you said you would."
Koenma's heart skipped a jolt. He felt his face heat up again. What! Have I heard correctly?
"What did you say, Botan?"
She sulked.
"Fine. Pretend that you didn't hear that," she huffed and turned the other way, flipping her long blue hair.
Suddenly, Botan felt Koenma grab her by the shoulders and turned her around roughly. Looking up, she saw him grinning down at her seductively.
"So, that's what you want, huh?"
Botan's face appeared red, whether from only the alcohol or something else, no one would know.
"Um, Koenma-" she started.
Obviously, it was too late to finish the sentence. Her mouth was captured in a strong, forceful, intense kiss. The words she was trying to speak before were lost inside her throat. Koenma pulled her closer and their desirable kiss continued on many minutes. When they finally stopped, Botan was clearly no longer drunk. Sure, her face was still red but she could see things as clear as they could be. They sat there contently for a while. Then, Koenma was the one who first broke the silence.
"Am I still considered mean?"
A smile slowly grew on Botan's blushing face.
"Maybe, maybe not."
"Oh?"
Botan gave him a teasing smile.
"What if I kiss you again?" he asked, returning the grin.
"We'll see," she replied.
So, they kissed again until they both fell asleep in each other's arms on the soft sofa.
END OF FLASHBACK
Echoes of 'awwww', again, were heard throughout the small bedroom where the game took place.
"Way to go, Koenma. Way to go," Yusuke said, giving his friend/boss a thumbs up.
"I wish I had a female assistant!" Kuwabara commented (earning him a glare from Botan).
"Heh, it's kind of a relief I got that out though," Koenma said, his face still slightly red. "Cause you guys'll know sooner or later."
"Never expected we'll get revealed in a dare though!" Botan remarked grinning sheepishly.
