Author's Note: Have I become too swamped with Fan-Fictions? Maybe. I'm going strong on The Seibu Project as of late. Unfortunately, as far as my vow to finish my fan-fictions by May? Well, let me tell you what's been going on. At work, I've been getting only two shifts a week (along with everyone else besides management/keyholders). So then, this guy quit, and the big boss asked me if I wanted more shifts, because he'll be able to get me more. Even though they aren't full blown eight hour shifts, still, if it's smack dab in the middle of my day, I can't get much accomplished. So I'm still going to shoot for May (The Bouquet of Orange Blossoms and The Seibu Project are hereby exempt from that, though), but don't be mad if I can't make it! Also, I have a bunch of The Candy Series lined up - and I swear that I WILL get my Koenma-Yusuke Vanilla Chocolate work out that I started back in September and have half-written already. I mean it!

On that note - I made a quiz (See bio) about what YYH coupling people are REALLY fans of. No, it's not rigged, I just wanted to open the doors for people. I scored as Yusuke-Kurama, followed by Yusuke-Hiei. My boyfriend got Kurama-Hiei. My sister and her friend both scored as Kuwabara-Kurama. I think that it's rather accurate! So if you take the quiz, PLEASE email me your results or sign my websites guestbook with them! Oh, and spread the word by posting the code into your blogs ). Thanks!

And thank you for all of the reviews! 43 reviews at four chapters About a 10 review per chapter average…okay that kind of sucks but for being live less than a month I'd say that's pretty decent considering the story summary leads people to believe that I've written the characters OOC.

Oh, and I edited a minor grammatical error concerning Yusuke's possession of his face in Chapter 1. The corrected line should now read "Yusuke's face" instead of "Yusuke face".

Mischief 101

By Zelia Theb

V: Glomp-a-licious

Kuwabara had found himself distracted by the myriad of beautiful ladies attending the party, but he couldn't help but compare them all to his dear sweet Yukina. After a few moments of daydreaming, he brought himself back into reality, and was concentrating on Kino and Botan. It was unusual to see her flirt with someone so openly; one would have never guessed that she could be the first face they'd see upon death. The other two boys, however, were much less concerned with Botan's efforts. While they still had an eye watching over Botan, they also had their other eyes on each other.

"Hey! Pay attention guys!" Kuwabara scolded them, frantic because he didn't want anything to happen to Botan, but also a bit uncomfortable with all of the PDA (Possible Dumb-Asses) surrounding him. Oh, and the public displays of affection.

"We are, you idiot!" Yusuke yelled back, "We're just testing to see if he's really distracted by Botan or not!" It was a lie. In reality, his hormones couldn't take it anymore.

"How much sense does that make? I mean…" A light bulb turned on over Kuwabara's head. Not because of the brilliant question that had just entered his mind, but literally because someone accidentally turned on one of the lights.

"Yeah? You mean…?"

"Why are you two even all cuddly and stuff? And why would that guy be distracted by you when there are tons of other…guys…making out already?" Ah yes, Kuwabara was utterly oblivious to their act, as was Botan. However, unlike the girl, Kazuma wanted to clarify just when and how the great pounder of his face Urameshi had become so lovey-dovey with the infamous ex-thief Kurama.

"I can explain…" Kurama began, once again trying to avoid the crudeness of a Yusuke remark. But the detective interrupted anyway.

"That guy has the hots for Kurama, and won't leave him alone."

"Oh…I get it," the tallest let out a nervous and awkward chuckle, "And lemme guess, Kurama is being a wussy because of his mom?" The boy was then smacked, and smacked hard, by a dangerously angered look coming from Kurama's eyes.

"Yeah, that's the basics," the cruder of the two answered.

"So…shouldn't you guys not be acting anymore?" Kuwabara asked, bringing up a valid point, "I mean, if Botan's plan is going to work, the guy can't be distracted by you guys. Otherwise you won't be able to make the punch, Urameshi."

"Damn it," the boy cursed. He never got his chance to do anything fun, although he would have to admit that hitting Kino was most definitely near the top of his current priority list. He parted ways with his pseudo-boy-toy and now ex-classmate, and ducked into cover of the crowd.

"You're cute and all, and maybe you can join me later," he heard Kino's voice say, "But right now I'm trying to keep my eye on a troublemaker."

"Oh, pretty please Kino? Let me sit on your lap!" Botan certainly had a knack for whining.

"Oh, alright, but only because you asked so nicely!" Yuck. Yusuke had just caught sight of what he had been hearing. It was revolting. The sheer thought made his necessity to punch Kino even more urgent.

"Okay, punk," Yusuke announced loudly, now standing in front of the bully who was bouncing Botan up and down on his knee like a child, "It's time for me to smash your face in."

"Oh, I get it, this is your girl, huh Urameshi?" the blonde smiled, although agitated, "My boys were just telling me that you mighta been cheating on her. And now look, she's come to me." The detective played along; it was better for him to think that Botan was Keiko anyway…not that he was dating Keiko in the first place!

"Yeah, whatever. Who cares. I'm going to knock your teeth out." The boy proceeded to crack his knuckled fist, daring Kino to let go of Botan and fight him. And that's exactly what the possessed boy did, causing the party to avert its attention toward the debacle. Yusuke went easy on him for a bit, not ending the fight too quickly, but still not letting the boy land any punches. It was perfect, because it allowed for Kurama to get in place near the exit, and for Kuwabara to prepare an easy and unnoticeable escape for Botan upon demon-capture.

Kino taunted Yusuke, pretending that the reason he couldn't land any punches was because he was toying with him. The Spirit Detective smirked at how idiotic the guy sounded, and also due to the fact that he knew he was going to win the fight. He kept glancing out of his peripherals, waiting for the signal to send Kino to the floor; and to his surprise, he finally received it.

"This is so boring," Yusuke whined, ducking his head to the left.

"What? Too sissy to throw a punch at me?" the ruffian teased, "Yeah, it can be boring being a sissy."

"No," Yusuke interjected, dodging another swipe at his head, "It's boring being nice to you!" With that, he easily planted his fist into Kino's forehead, using a bit of spirit energy to boost him, assuring that the guy would be knocked out. In unison, the guests let out a gasp, whispering amongst themselves about how Kino could lose to a newbie like Urameshi, however, Yusuke paid no mind. He made sure that the small red lizard crawling out of the bully's mouth made it into Botan's hands.

Which it did. So now the boy's objective was to leave with Kurama, ignoring the other student's vows for revenge. And with Yusuke's exit, the party was over.

Two days later, and Yusuke was surprised that Botan was right. The staff of the school either had no idea what had gone on, or didn't bother to reprimand him at all. The plan worked out smoothly. It even had the added effect of boosting his reputation throughout the school; kids came up to him and offered him their lunch or their seat (of which he would decline, since at heart he really was a nice guy). It was just like normal.

After their classes that day, Kurama had informed Yusuke that he would be returning some books to the school library. He also had a report due in biology, for which he wanted to borrow some equipment from the photography club in order to provide pictures of various flora from the campus as visual aids. The detective thought that night wasn't the best time to take pictures, but Kurama insisted that he could cheat the lighting, and that everything would be fine.

Night had eventually fallen upon the redhead. In fact, it was nearing ten o'clock. The campus grounds were virtually clear, and although he wanted to stay outside longer, he wanted to return to the dorm so as not to break school curfew. The front entrances had told him that he would have to run around the back of the large building in order to gain access, as they were already locked. With a camera slung around his neck, he began his journey to the opposite side of the building.

So as the Universe would have it, when rounding his first corner of the eastern wing, Kurama came upon Katsu Sukikino, smoking like a fiend, alone. Before catching Kurama in his gaze, he was previously resting his back casually against the smooth bricks of the wall.

"So, Minamino. Didn't stick around, huh?" he remarked, tossing his dead butt (of the cigarette) on the ground, "That wasn't very nice of you." Kurama ignored him, attempting to walk past, but was grabbed by the arm instead.

"I know you're faking it. Urameshi has a girlfriend already." The stale stench of smoke breath filled the fox's nostrils, setting them on fire. He had always found that a smoker's breath was unbearable, similar to that of dog droppings. Luckily for him, Yusuke never was able to smoke; always being interrupted or stopped for one reason or another…

"Let me go," Kurama commanded. He wasn't entirely in the mood to keep beating around this bush any longer. In actuality, he wanted to go home and let Yusuke entertain him with his various jokes and random playfulness. If he couldn't do that…well…then…he'd be pretty damn cranky, just like any normal teenager would be.

"I don't think so," he replied, his grip becoming tighter and tighter, "You and Urameshi are gonna pay for ruining my party." An angry hand made its way around Kurama's waist, grasping his back and then threatening to tear his clothing. It appalled the demon that evilness truly could exist in a human so young.

So much so…that Kurama did something he should have done long ago. Faster than any normal human and possibly demon could react, he twisted his arm, escaping the clutch of Kino, and absconded a few feet away. Blades of grass and weeds growing at the foundation of the brick grew at a remarkable speed, braiding themselves together with Kino's legs, and reaching forth to secure his wrists.

"What…what the hell is going on?" he shouted, "Help me, Minamino!"

"Help you?" Kurama laughed malevolently, "I'd much rather watch the plants devour you."

"You're doing this? What are you, some kinda evil conjurer or something? A demon?" The entrapped boy then screamed again, hoping to bring attention to anyone who might have their window open or be in the area.

"Keep quiet, fool," the fox threatened, ordering the plants to tighten further, "Anyone dull enough to help you will meet the same fate." He then covered the distance between them, standing amber-green eye to eye, and stated, "From now on, you'll leave myself and my friends alone. Do you understand?" The boy nodded, and suddenly Shuichi was more prominent in his eyes.

"Good." As Kurama continued on his way to the back door, Kino found that the plants around him quickly shriveled into a brown, dead mess of mulch. It rather matched the fact that he had just had the crap scared out of him.

Once again, Kurama was shocked at his own behavior. Surely he had gone over the line, and for what reason? He had decided not to return to the dorm just yet (which was rather ironic since he had gotten angered that Kino was holding him up from doing such); instead heading to the school black room to muse over his photos and forget about his fit of teenage angst (which had ended up being more demonic than human). Just as he predicted, the photographs had developed marvelously. However, it was nearly one in the morning.

It was most definitely time to return home (or rather, his temporary home, the dormitory he shared with Yusuke).

After clicking the door softly behind him, he was surprised to find that Yusuke was still awake, and sitting in his bed with his legs crossed. Upon seeing Kurama, he sprung forth and attached the two of them together in a rather glompdulous embrace (1).

"The hell have you been, man?" Yusuke asked, "I've been bored all day!"

"I'm flattered, Yusuke," Kurama blushed, "I apologize." After seeing a rather upset look on his friend's face, he took it upon himself to explain further, and with much detail.

"You see, when I had finished my photography, I came across Kino…" Kurama sighed heavily, "And he tried to…"

"Tried to what?" Yusuke prodded, stepping apart, but still holding his attractive friend at the shoulders. Virtually cream-less coffee stared into him; "Don't tell me I gotta go punch that guy out again because you didn't wanna tell him to back off."

"Quite the opposite, actually…In fact…" The teen got excited at Kurama's explanation; "I may have even jeopardized our stay here. He attempted to take physical action upon me…as if thinking I would just bend over for him. So he found himself a little tied up amongst the weeds."

"That's so…" Yusuke then proceeded to babble a run on sentence of various expletives of excitement; "…Cool!"

"Oh yes?" a red eyebrow quirked inquisitively.

"Oh, yes indeed," the lust-filled boy returned, "Besides, I'd throw a fit if someone else got to take your virginity."

"Who says that I am?" the long-locked boy quipped with a smile.

"You're not? I don't recall the two of us ever having sex before. Hmmm…" Yusuke placed a finger to his chin and tapped it a few times, "Give me a second to remember."

"Okay, you've got me," the other winked, "I must be quite a terrible liar!"

"Well, if it is all that important to you, I could arrange a date with Botan," Yusuke let a giggle slip out, "I mean, you both have long hair and supernatural abilities. You'd hit it off pretty well!" (2)

Yusuke was promptly tackled and pinned against the floor for his insinuation. His wrists were encased by Kurama's strong hands, and his waist found itself beneath the redhead's posterior. One might think that this would have been the Universe's twisted way of describing Slave and Master intercourse, but this was just one of the many grappling moves necessary to succeed in a tickle fest.

"Ah!" he cried out, squirming to avoid any waggling fingers coming at his sides. It was no use; Kurama had secured him firmly to the floor. It was time for his secret yet overused weapon; the Urameshi lick. It struck one of Kurama's hands, creating a point of vulnerability in which Yusuke took the time to push Kurama onto said posterior, ripe and ready for his own ticklish suffering.

The sensation was intense. How could he always fall defenseless to salival contact? There he was, straddled by Yusuke in the center of their floor, having the breath tormented out of him. It was time to fight back; in fact, the whole day was a deadline for various unsolved issues, such as tickling, Kino, Yusuke…

So in return, Kurama licked Yusuke's face.

"You so didn't," Yusuke said softly.

"A taste of your own medicine," Kurama smirked in a hushed whisper. The wiggling fingers at his sides soon turned into steady hands.

"I bet you can't get away with that again…" Yusuke flirted, eyelids lowering into half circles above his eyes.

The other teen's eyelids followed suite, and he argued back, "Just you try and stop me, Detective." His face fell gracefully forward as he leaned in to lap at Yusuke once more, only to he countered by another lap. They continued their mid-air tongue duel in their mouths, finally giving in to their feelings and pressing their lips together in a rather furious yet clean kiss.

To Be Continued…

(1) Glompdulous? Glomp is not a real word, so therefor, the creation of this word is entirely acceptable. It is used in this line to describe the intensity of the hug; placing emphasis on the fact that it was a large leap proceeded by an incredibly tight squeeze. The glomp infers that the glompee may have even lost the ability to breath momentarily. ("Glompee the Penguin" comics are © Zelia Theb, no joke! There's one at my dA account…)

(2) I, under no circumstance ever, will ever be caught dead or alive (Another YYH Pun) writing a Kurama-Botan fic. This was merely a parody. I, Zelia Theb, claim no responsibility to those injured by the horrid thought of these two together. I also claim no responsibility to the injuries sustained by Kurama-Botan fans when they fell out of their chair, appalled at my general dislike for this pairing. Please send all complaints, comments, and questions to the Universe.

Author's Note

Mischief 101 will be coming to it's end shortly! Whether or not that is in the next chapter, or in two chapters…well, that all depends on how wordy I get. Please ignore my brief Kurama-Botan bashing. Honestly, I love both characters, and love people who love them, I just don't fancy the pairing.

I have a little challenge for you all. Create your own one-shot fanfic, using any YYH characters in any situation, but you must include the patented Zelia Theb "Universe" as a deviously ironic character! Winner gets free fan-art of a scene from their winning fanfic. My only judgement is going to be based on the various articles/tutorials I wrote on fan-fiction, not on the author or even the character pairings. Please email me or click my bio for more info. I'll call it "Zelia Theb's Universe Challenge".

That's about it!

Thanks for all of the reviews, once again, and an even bigger thanks to those of you who've joined the Thebes Forum and also read my articles!
