Okay it's time for an update, other than for my other fanfic that is.

May: You're obsessed with Haunted aren't you?

Akira: Yes I don't know why but I am. Thank you for reviewing.

Chapter 6

"You want me to what?" Kurama asked the orange haired boy who must have lost his mind if what Kurama thought he said was true. The two boys were sitting down at your typical restaurant, and the truth was Kurama would probably be home reading a book if Kuwabara hadn't come over to his house begging him to go out with him so he could discus a plan with the fox demon.

"I said I want you to flirt with Yusuke." Kuwabara took a sip of his soda before going on with his reasons as to why he wanted Kurama to flirt with Yusuke. "Look Hiei has been making moves on Yusuke for a while now and it is totally messing with his mind. He isn't sure about anything anymore, at least anything that has to do with Hiei. My theory is that if someone else flirts with him he might be able to figure out his feelings for Hiei."

Stirring his tea with his spoon Kurama frowned at what Kuwabara was suggesting. "Kuwabara," Kurama spoke calmly, "while I do understand why you want me to flirt with Yusuke the risk is greater than the reward. What if instead of helping him I confuse him even more until he is nothing but a mess. Then there is the possibility, understand I don't mean to sound vain as I say this, that Yusuke might develop feelings for me and while I love Yusuke it is only as a brother. There is also the chance that Yusuke may find it strange that two members from his team, who are both males, are suddenly attracted to him and think it's a joke, and if Hiei does care for Yusuke he will kill us when Yusuke says he thought he was joking the whole time and didn't mean it, or have you not realized Hiei doesn't open up, and if he does he it's because he is confident that he has nothing to lose." Sipping his tea with grace and delicacy Kurama smiled his charming smile. "Now do you see what I mean?"

Exhaling Kuwabara laid his head on the table in defeat. "Yeah I see Kurama, but I really think the risk is worth it. I'm almost sure Yusuke has feelings for Hiei, but he doesn't know how to react to them and can't show them. Maybe he doesn't even understand them. I mean the only person who ever showed him any kind of love is Keiko. The truth is he probably won't be able to recognize it until he has something to compare it too, like friendship love, or brotherly love."

"You're just not going to stop until I say yes aren't you?" Kurama sighed in frustration and rested his forehead on his fingertips.

A crooked smile took form on the moron's face as he sat up again. "Got that right Kurama, oh and before you even think about asking me why I don't do it myself it's because look at me." Kurama gave Kuwabara a judging stare as he waited for the human to continue. "I fall in love at first sight. I always go for girls so the chances of him thinking it's a joke if I'm doing it are higher than yours. Also neither Hiei or you have shown interest with girls which means it would be more believable if you did it, and since you and Hiei hang out so much it wouldn't be too surprising if you both had the same preferences."

"I guess I have no choice do I?" Kurama muttered in defeat. He should have known when Kuwabara said he had a plan he needed to discus with him it would lead to something like this.

With a cocky grin plastered on his face Kuwabara drank the last as his soda and said with pleasantness clear in his voice, "Got that right."

Yusuke was walking down the sidewalk trying to sort out his thoughts. Was it possible for Hiei to have feelings for him as more than just a friend? Maybe it was possible but that didn't make it likely and Yusuke wasn't about to get his hopes up. What hopes, Yusuke thought bitterly. I know Hiei can't like me like that and I don't like him like that, do I? Grabbing his head he shook it fiercely trying to rid himself of any doubts he had about the fire demon. No! Hiei is my best friend and if he were to have feelings for me then, then, then, I don't know what but something would have happened!

"Yusuke," a concerned gentle voice asked from behind the confused boy. The spirit detective turned around to see Kurama standing in front of him with care shinning in his eyes. "Yusuke is everything okay?" the fox demon asked worriedly. Why did I agree to this? Kurama thought. This just might break Yusuke and I don't want to do that. If Hiei doesn't kill Kuwabara or me first I'll kill Kuwabara for ever making me do this and breaking Yusuke's spirit.

"What? I'm fine Kurama. Stop worrying about me," Yusuke tried to wave him off and to add to the affect of being fine he gave Kurama the biggest smile he could muster. But Kurama possessing the skills of a thief was able to tell it was fake and held no meaning. "So what are you doing out here Kurama. I thought you'd be somewhere like the library."

"Yes well you see," Kurama cleared his throat. It's now or have Kuwabara not give me a moment of piece until I do it. Slowly and seductive Kurama wrapped one of his arms around Yusuke's shoulder. "It was such a beautiful day outside and I was hoping to enjoy it. Of course it does get a little lonely." Creasing the younger boy's cheek with the utmost care he stared into Yusuke's eyes. "I'm glad I found you Yusuke. It just wouldn't be as fun if I was all alone." Jeez what was that? It seems I can only flirt when I actually have feelings for the person. I sound more like some guy trying to get into Yusuke's pants then just some harmless crush. This isn't going to end well.

A blush tinted Yusuke's face as he pulled away from Kurama and nervously placed a hand behind his head. "That's nice but are you sure you don't want to be doing something else other than hanging out with me. I mean I'm not exactly that entertaining to be around."

"Yusuke," Kurama said sadly. Did Yusuke really think he wasn't fun to be around? Kurama couldn't believe that. "I love hanging out with you. I never know what's going to happen and it always seems to make the day go by faster. Now come on." Grabbing Yusuke's hand and leading him to the park he didn't let go of the other boy's hand until they were at their destination.

They walked around the park and talked about anything and everything. The only time there was silence around them was when they came to where Hiei had kissed Yusuke. When they finally grew tired of walking they sat on one of the boulders near the cherry trees and continued talking. Occasionally Kurama would brush his hand across Yusuke's or do some other method of flirting until he'd gotten so used to flirt with the spirit detective he could do it naturally.

Three hours had passed since when Kurama had found Yusuke wandering the sidewalks and they were about to go home for the day, but a beeping sound from Kurama's pocket stopped them. Kurama reached into his pocket and pulled out the communication mirror. "Whoa, hold it. You actually carry that with you Kurama? Aren't you worried if someone sees?"

Ignoring Yusuke, Kurama opened up the communication mirror to reveal a picture of Botan where Kurama's reflect would normally be. "Oh good Yusuke is with you Kurama," Botan said through the mirror. "Listen that demon I told you about is on the lose and is close by to where you guys are right now. Run and I'll give you the instructions as you go."

Since I don't know anything about Yusuke's hometown I'll stop here and start the next chapter at when they get there.
