"Okay!" Keiko said. "Let's find a place to set our stuff."

"Found one," Yusuke said and everyone turned to see Yusuke at the bar.

"No!" Keiko grabbed Yusuke and pulled him out of the bar. "I see one." They walked over to one of those U couches and sat down. It was a slow song on and Keiko wanted to dance so Yusuke and Keiko left. Yukina wanted to also and Kuwabara and Yukina got up to leaving Botan and Hiei. The song playing was 'Here's to Tonight,' By Eve 6. (A/N: It's not the Beatles!)

Botan ordered a drink and started to sing the sang quietly. Rikku ran in the room and sat down neat to Hiei and pushed him closer to Botan.

"Go dance!" Rikku pushed them out of the seat. "NOW!"

"Um," Botan wasn't sure how to react.

"Fine," Hiei said under his breath.

"Okay," Botan said and started to dance. After that sang was over Hiei turned to sit back down but Botan wouldn't let him. "You're not getting out of this that easily."

"Are you forcing me to dance with you?" Hiei asked.

"Yes," Botan said and the next song that came on was 'This is How You Remind Me,' by Nickleback, another slow song. "You know you're not a bad dancer."

"And you thought I was?" Hiei asked.

"Of course not, I wouldn't know tell I danced with you," Botan said. "But how good are you with casual dancing?"

"You'll just have to find out," Hiei said.

"Oh, I will," Botan joked. The sang ended and 'Pump It Up,' by Joe Budden came on. "You first, Mr. Hot-shot." Hiei did some moves and Botan was impressed.

"Your turn," Hiei said and Botan started. By now a crowd started to gather. At the end of the song everyone in the crowd were screaming for more.

"Do you want to do more?" Botan asked.

"Who's better?" Hiei asked.

"We'll have to find out," Botan said and the next sang was 'Right Thurr,' by Chingy. At the end of that song Botan and Hiei sat down. The rest of the group came over from the dance floor and sat down too.

"You guys are so good," Yukina said.

"And she's not expressing it," Keiko said.

"Yes, I am," Yukina said.

"Girls," Yusuke said.

"Gawd shorty were did you learn to dance?" Kuwabara asked.

"Hn," Hiei said.

"Can you teach us?" Yusuke asked.

"Don't even think about it," Hiei said.

"What about you Botan? Where did you learn?" Keiko asked.

"When I was alive I took dance class," Botan said. "I never thought I'd use it, but my mom urged me to take them."

"Well it paid off," Yusuke said.

"Can you teach us?" Keiko asked.

"If you really want me to," Botan said not to sure.

"Okay, can you start tomorrow?" Keiko asked.

"Sure," Botan said and looked around all her friends. "Where'd Rikku go?"

"She was never here," Kuwabara said.

"Yes she was," Hiei said. "She pushed me off the couch and made us dance."

"Rikku was never here," Yusuke said.

"What ever," Kuwabara said. "Can we forget about the hyper active girl and have fun."

Indeed they had fun and Hiei and Botan danced a little more than they all left for Botan's apartment.

"That was so fun," Botan said and everyone walked into the apartment.

"It would have been better if Hiei didn't knock Kuwabara unconscious," Yusuke said.

"That hurt twerp!" Kuwabara said rubbing his head.

"What time is it?" Keiko asked.

"Around one," Kurama said from the couch.

"Why didn't you go?" Yusuke asked.

"Shizuru and I had to talk to Koenma," Kurama said.

"Where is Shizuru?" Yukina asked.

"She went home for tonight," Kurama said. "I am too."

"Bye Kurama," Botan said. "See you tomorrow."

"Yes you will, bye," Kurama left.

"We are going to take a brake on you to sleeping together, because mom's probably worried. Bye!" Yusuke said.

"Bye, I'm going with him," Keiko said.

"Bye," Botan said.

"Yukina would you like me to take you to Genkai's?" Kuwabara asked.

"That would be nice, thank you Kuzuma," Yukina said.

"Bye guys!" Botan said.

"Bye!" everyone but Hiei left.

"Goodnight Hiei," Botan said.

"Don't we have to do that dare thing?" Hiei asked.

"They said we had a brake to night," Botan said and went to her room, the far back room. "You can sleep in this room."

"Do you like that other room more?" Hiei asked.

"Ya," Botan said and went to the back room. Hiei went to the other room and lay down on the bed.

In the morning when Hiei woke up Botan was in his room looking out the window. "Good morning Hiei," Botan said and glanced back at him.

Hiei had the slightest urge to walk over to Botan, hug her, and kiss her. "Hn," Hiei ignored the urge. "Why are you in here?"

"Looking out the window," Botan said. Hiei stood up and walked next to her. His urge grew stronger.

"Why didn't you go in the other room?" Hiei asked.

"That window," Botan said. "We're snowed in."

"Snowed in?" Hiei asked.

"Yep," Botan said. "There's no way out. The guys can't get here either."

"It snowed more than that weather man thought," Hiei said and Botan laughed.

"A lot more than he thought," Botan said and left his room.

'I didn't think that was funny,' Hiei thought and left the room also.

When Hiei walked into the room Botan wasn't there. He heard the sound of running water and figured Botan was in the shower. A few minutes later there was a ringing sound and the bathroom door burst open and Botan ran out in a towel.

"Hello?" Botan said as she picked up the phone.

"Hey, what's up?" Yusuke's voice asked from the other end.

"Um...nothing," Botan said. "Shouldn't you be in school?"

"Snow day!" Yusuke said. "Hasn't it been snowing there to? It's been snowing like crazy!"

"Ya, but I was in the shower when you called and I'd like to get back to that," Botan said.

"Isn't Hiei there?" Yusuke asked.

"Ya," Botan said. "He didn't answer the phone."

"Oh, I will keep you from your shower as long as I can," Yusuke said.

"Bye Yusuke," Botan hung up on him. The phone started to ring again but Botan went back to her shower. The phone kept ringing so Hiei stood up and picked it up. Not to sure what to do he copied Botan's action.

"Hello?" Hiei asked.

"Hiei! Hey, pal, what's up?" Yusuke asked.

"What do you want?" Hiei asked.

"Is Botan here?" Yusuke asked.

"She's in the shower," Hiei said.

"Are you sure?" Yusuke asked.

"Yes," Hiei said.

"You checked?" Yusuke asked.

"You have a perverted mind," Hiei said and hung up. The phone started to ring and Hiei asked it. "What?"

"Hiei?" Kurama asked this time.

"Hn, who else?" Hiei asked getting annoyed at this device.

"Oh, well is Botan there?" Kurama asked.

"She's in the shower and I didn't check," Hiei said.

"Did you talk to Yusuke or Kuwabara before I called?" Kurama asked.

"Yes...Yusuke has a perverted mind," Hiei said and Kurama laughed silently.

"So she's in the shower?" Kurama asked.

"Yes," Hiei said.

"Okay, just tell her I called," Kurama said and hung up. Hiei hung up and headed for the couch when the phone rang again.

"Stupid device," Hiei said and picked up the end of it. "Hello?"

"Hey shrimp," Kuwabara's voice boomed from the other end.

"Hn, what do you want?" Hiei asked. "If you're looking for Botan she's in the shower."

"Did you check?" Kuwabara asked.

"NO," Hiei hung up. Hiei sat down as the phone rang five more times than stopped. Botan walked out of the bathroom fully dressed with a towel wrapped around her hair. She walked to the kitchen and took out a bottle than went to the living room and sat in the chair that Yusuke always sits in.

"Yusuke, Kurama, and Kuwabara called," Hiei said as he watched Saturday Night Live.

"Really?" Botan asked as she checked her watch. "I only took ten minutes." Botan stood up and went to the phone and picked it up. "Hello Kurama."

"Hello Botan, how are you?" Kurama asked.

"I'm fine, how about you?" Botan asked.

"Fine, I wanted to know if you wanted to do anything." Kurama asked.

"Um..." Botan wasn't sure what to do.

"I mean just you and me," Kurama said. 'I hope this works.'

"I guess...sure, why not," Botan said.

"Okay, great," Kurama said. 'If this doesn't get him jealous, I don't know what will.' "I'll see you around one, than."

"Sounds great," Botan said and hung up.

"What was that all about?" Hiei asked.

"Kurama's coming over in a little bit and than me and him are going out," Botan said and walked to her room

'Kitsune! I like...do I like her? Yes you do. Are you sure? Positive! Don't let the kitsune take over her...you need to take charge! ...Are you sure? YES! Take charge! Um... okay,' Hiei thought.

Botan came out of her room a little bit later in different clothes. Her hair was in a pony tail, as usual and she wore a pink shirt with strips down it with black pants and a belt in the middle of the shirt. (It was in the episode before the finals started)

'I like that outfit...Well of course you do! You like her. Hn. Don't talk back to me! Be quite,' Hiei thought.

"How do I look?" Botan asked. 'He's going say 'I don't care' or 'Go ask some one who cares.'

"Fine," Hiei said.

"Okay!" Botan sat next to him on the couch.

"What are you and Kurama going to do?" Hiei asked.

"I don't know," Botan said. Hiei could smell the perfume she was wearing.

"Why did you dress up?" Hiei asked.

"I don't know, I thought it would be nice to," Botan said.
