Kurama: Inulover does not own yuyu hakusho and thank god for that.

Inulover: Hey! Well onto the story.

Ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

It had been three days now since Kurama had recovered from the poison that Yukita had injected in him. And found himself walking down the sidewalk on his way to the arcade. Yusuke and Kuwabara had called him that morning to see if he wanted to meet up with them that day to which the fox agreed. He figured it would be nice to hang out since he hadn't seen either of them in at least a week.

The Yoko walked in through the mechanical glass doors. Various lights and sounds instantly invading his senses. Kurama scanned over the top of the crowd trying to find a glimpse of Yusuke or Kuwabara; he subconsciously wondered why they had picked such a noisy and crowded place. He didn't mind the crowd so much as the noise. "Kurama! Over here!"

"Hello Yusuke, Kuwabara" he yelled back and walked over to the fighting machine where the two where standing. Why hadn't he looked this way first? Of course they'd choose a game like that.

"Glad to see you back on your feet," the young spirit detective slapped his friend on the back. "We would have helped if you'd told us about it ya know."

"Well, there wasn't much time for that Yusuke."

"Yeah, well, the little punk still left us to clean up his mess." Kuwabara shivered, "I still have nightmares, that was disgusting."

"So I've been told."

"Speaking of the shrimp, where is he?" He looked over the crowd like a sailor looking for land.

"Video games are not really his idea of fun," a little spike of Ki caught the kitsunes's attention, "I'll be right back." He said and headed outside.

He turned out the door and spotted his little nymph about to take flight again. Masking his energy, the stealthy fox made his way quickly and silently over to Hiei. He draped his arms around the fire youkai's shoulders, "Planning on leaving without even saying 'hello', Hiei?" He whispered into Hiei's ear. Before Kurama could register the action, Hiei had spun around; placing a warm kiss on Kurama's soft lips. Kurama moaned a bit and deepened the kiss. He ran his hands through the silky raven hair while simultaneously slipping his tongue into Hiei's mouth.

Passersby stopped to gawk at the site. Some watched in disgust, parents guiding there younger children away from the scene. Others, mostly the teenaged girls kept squealing "kawaii!" as they passed. Hiei was the first to break away, smirking at his fox's slightly stunned and lustful expression. "Good enough 'hello' for you?" Hiei let his eyes wander to the crowd around them; for the first time noticing how many people they had attracted. A small blush matching the color of his eyes spread across his face, he hadn't thought it'd be such a scene. Kurama laughed and studied Hiei's face; it was a rare thing to see the little youkai blush. Without warning Hiei ran off, leaving the crowd around them shocked as they began muttering amongst themselves as to where he went.

With a mental sigh, Kurama snuck his way through the crowds and back into the arcade and over to the two, currently fighting, boys. He wasn't really very concerned about Hiei running off like that. He would have been more concerned if he hadn't run off. An open display of affection just wasn't something he did in public. Either way, he knew he'd see Hiei later, whether it be him waiting outside Kurama's window or on his bed.

Hiei was currently perched in one of his favorite trees in the park. Up high and hidden inside the large green leaves. He watched the little ningens scurry about on the ground beneath him.

He yawned, feeling rather bored, watching the ningens antics were only entertaining for so long. He pulled out his katana and a scrap piece of white cloth and began polishing his blade for lack of nothing better to do. He didn't have anything to do until Kurama left the spirit detective and the block-head behind. He could go and find him, but Hiei had no interest at all in spending the day cramped in a small noisy room filled with ningen's children; or Kuwabara for that matter. One of the reasons he hadn't gone inside the building earlier to look for Kurama was because it was too loud. He could hear all the sounds from outside the building as clear as if he had been inside. He didn't know how his kitsune could stand it in there; his hearing was more acute then Hiei's.

He felt an annoying pinch on his hand and looked down to see that a tiny black widow had sunk it's fangs into his flesh. He growled and flicked the pesky critter off his hand with a flick of his wrist, sending the little bugger flying; only to land God knows where. Going back to polishing his sword, he ignored the little red spot on his hand, brushing it off. Thinking nothing of the little spiders' venom, it wasn't even full grown so its poison wouldn't affect him in any serious manner.

Sheathing his katana he noticed two more of the Black spiders crawling up next to him and he flicked them away as well. It wasn't until he stood up that he realized that the whole tree was crawling with black widows. Knowing that even a youkai of his status could die from an onslaught like that, he quickly burned all the spiders and dashed off for Kurama's house. This incident just didn't sit well with him at all, "Something's going on."

Yusuke and Kurama walked down the sidewalk, Kuwabara had left right after the arcade saying he had to get home. Yusuke was busy complaining to Kurama about how annoying Keiko was being these days. She was always yelling at him, still hitting him, nag, nag, nag. The Fox listened as Yusuke went on and on, "Anyway, enough with me and Keiko." Kurama mentally leapt for joy, the conversation had been getting tedious. Yusuke got a sly grin on his face, "Let's talk about you and Hiei." Kurama stopped dead in his tracks at the subject and stared at Yusuke.

"W...What? How did you?"

"Well, I suspected it for a while, and I know that you where talking to Hiei outside the arcade and I just put two and two together." Kurama gave him a doubtful stare and crossed his arms over his chest.

"Do you really expect me to believe that you figured it out like that?" He earned himself a nervous sort of laughter from his dark haired companion.

"Alright, alright. I heard two girls talking to each other after you came back about a 'hot red-headed guy kissing some really cute little guy' and that pretty much spelled it out." He laughed as Kurama ducked his head, trying to hide the blush under his red hair.

...This morning another body was found dead. A young female, killed from an attack from several poisonous spiders...

Both boys turned their attention to the TV set in the store window as it played the days news. Both listening intently to the announcement.

...This hasn't been the only attack and is one of five that has occurred within the last two days...

"Odd, it's not in the species nature to just attack without some reason." Kurama spoke to himself as the news continued on.

...Researchers are currently trying to explain why these spiders are suddenly attacking. They still haven't found anything of importance besides the fact that all the killings were from black widows. In the mean time, people in the area are advised to...

"Black widows? But they don't travel in groups, no breed of spider does. There's no reason for all of this."

"Kurama? Do you think it's a demon or something?"

"Possibly, it hasn't been that long since Yukita attacked. Perhaps she is still alive after all."

"There's no way! Look. I saw that thing in person, there's no way a giant piece of burnt charcoal could do anything like this. Hiei made sure she was burnt to a crisp."

"That may be, but we should still keep our guard up, Yusuke, this has a demon's handiwork written all over it."

It was late evening by the time Kurama managed to get home, the sun was already setting. He jiggled the key in the lock and walked inside, closing the door behind him. "I'm back! Kaasan!" he called out as he hung his coat up. Shiori stepped into the hall to greet her son.

"How was your day, Shuiichi?"

"Fine," he replied before going up to his room. "I thought you would be here, Hiei," he said as he closed the door behind him and turned to look at the fire demon sitting on the bed, going over to join him.

"What took so long, fox?" Kurama leaned in and gave his koibito a light peck on the lips before sitting down next to him.

"Sorry, I guess I lost track of time. What happened to your hand?"

"Nothing, just a stupid spider bite."

"Was it a black widow?"

"How'd you know?"

"There's been a large out-break of attacks from them lately. I suppose you haven't treated it yet."

"It's not going to hurt me, Kurama." The red head pulled a small seed out of his hair and it changed to a small purple leaf in the palm of his hand. He squeezed some light blue gel out of the tip.

"Humor me then, let me see your hand. After my little incident with poison I don't want to go through it with you anytime soon," He said and rubbed a little amount over the angry looking bite.

Hiei watched Kurama as he worked, partly wondering how he managed to have someone as good as Kurama with him. "The tree I was in was swarming in black widows." Kurama looked up, "I burned them all and came here. I figured something must be happening and apparently I was right." The red head sighed and lay down on his bed, one arm over his chest and the other over his head, watching the ceiling.

"I think it could be linked to Yukita in some way."

"What?"

"Yes, I think I might go and see Koenma tomorrow to see if he knows anything."

"Hn, might not be a bad idea." Hiei glanced down at his fox and smirked, he moved over closer and straddled Kurama over his stomach. "You do realize you look very enticing lying like that." Kurama hummed thoughtfully and grinned back.

"Hinting at something, Hiei?" The small youkai moved down, luring his fox into a kiss. He slowly massaged his fox's tongue with his own. Hiei never failed to surprise Kurama when it came to how good of a kisser he was. A knock on the door stopped them.

"Shuiichi?" Hiei growled into Kurama's neck and the red head rolled his eyes.

"Her timing is impeccable. Yes kaasan?" He asked through the door as he opened it.

"I'm leaving for my night shift now, and dinner is in the fridge. There's plenty in there if your friend wants to stay the night. I'll see you in the morning Shuiichi; have a nice time you two." She said as she walked down the hall.

"Good-bye, Kaasan. See you in the morning."

He waited until the sound of the door closing and locking meet his ears before closing the door to his own room. He all but pounced on Hiei in a playful manner, a mischievous smirk in place "So what do you say? Care to spend the night, Hiei?"

"Only if we can continue where we left off, and that was you on the bottom." He rolled Kurama over so their positions were reversed. The red head pouted slightly.

"Why do I always have to be on the bottom?"

"Because you'll crush me," Hiei joked with a grin.

"Will not."

"Alright, we'll switch tonight."

The annoying little DJ man on the radio woke the sleeping fox up as he turned the stupid thing off. He rubbed his eye tiredly and yawned, "I must get a less annoying alarm clock," He muttered quietly enough so that he wouldn't wake Hiei. Kurama watched Hiei with a little smile as he slept. He couldn't get over how cute it was that Hiei would always curl up in a little ball and get himself tangled in the sheets every night. It was quite comical indeed.

"Like what you see, fox?"

"Yes, actually, I do." He chuckled as he watched Hiei fight with the blankets a little to get them off. The little fire youkai won in the end.

Hiei watched Shiori cook breakfast with mild interest from his spot next to Kurama at the table. "So did you boys have fun last night?"

"Yes, kaasan. You could say that," Her son answered after taking a look at Hiei's very well hidden flustered expression.

"That's nice." She put down a plate of what looked like to Hiei, soggy cooked bread with cinnamon. "I hope you like french toast, Hiei." Shiori said with a smile before sitting down to eat her own plate of toast. He followed Kurama's example and took a small bite, finding that he actually liked the stuff. 'Such a quiet boy,' Shiori thought as she watched him, "So, Hiei, do you go to Shuiichi's school as well?"

"No,"

"Oh? Then where do you go?" The youkai glanced at Kurama to pull him out of this, he didn't know any school names.

"He goes to Yusuke's school."

"Oh, so you're friends with Yusuke too?"

"...Yes..." he didn't want to blow his cover but still, having to say he was actually 'friends' with Urameshi was almost too much. The women looked at the clock.

"It looks like you two should be getting to school now."

"Yes, come on Hiei." The demon followed the red head, "I'll be a little late getting home today, kaasan." He called over his shoulder.

"Alright, Shuiichi. Have a good day boys."
