Hiei knew that one night he would awake to the body heat of the fox over or next to him. He was slightly nervous. After all, never in his life had he had sex, much less with someone with much more experience then himself. Yet he was also excited. Just the thought of it aroused him.

And Hiei was right. Two weeks after Hiei and Kurama had entered Makai, Hiei awoke in the middle of the night. Lips were caressing his neck when his eyes opened, one hand on his shoulder, the other on his chest, and a strong and heavy body on top of his own. He was afraid of what was to come... expecially since Kurama's chest was already bare. Hiei ran his hands up and down the fox's well defined muscles as the fox began to toy with his ear.

"Why now?" Hiei wondered outloud.

A few moments later Kurama pulled his face so it was level with the smaller demon's. "Because the demon inside of me just went into heat..." the red-head purred, capturing his lips in his own.

"Damn..." Hiei murmurred. He simply sat there, letting the fox have his fun. He was enjoying it immensly, and he knew the fox was, too, by the frequent growls from deep in his throat.

Hiei was so absorbed in the feel of the fox, he didn't noticed his pants slipping down around his ankles as the fox's knees pressed them down his legs. Before he knew it, they were both completely naked, and had both lost all sense of reality.

After a while, Kurama slid down Hiei's body. Suddenly he felt uncomfortable, but that feeling quickly went away as several more kisses were planted about his neck.

The next few minutes were filled with painful pleasure, and when the moment finally came, Hiei gasped and arched his back, and Kurama collapsed on top of him. They were both tired and weak, even though the fox had done most of the work. Hiei decided that he was just as tired as the fox, even though he'd barely done anything, because Kurama had more endurance then he did, but figured that in loving the fox, it would improve.

When Kurama collapsed onto Hiei, the fox's sweaty chest caused him to slip to the side at lay on the cool rock, which felt like heaven against his heated body.

"Just think of it as marriage..." Kurama gasped.

"This was... nothing like your mother's wedding.." Hiei replied, rolling on his side.

"Which did you like better?" the fox murmurred, turning to his side as well and wrapping his arms around the demon's neck, pulling him close.

"Is there a correct answer?" Hiei joked, looking his beautiful fox deep in the eye.

Kurama laughed weakly. "Very funny. Next time it's your turn."

"Damn fox who said there was gonna be a next time? I'm gonna need a week to recover!" Hiei replied, before sighing tiredly and closing his eyes.

"Yoko Kurama says there'll be many 'next times,' but don't worry Hiei... even if there was none.. I'd still love you more then anyone else."

The fox pulled Hiei even closer and kissed him again. Hiei had begun to like the fox's lips, and they soon became his favorite part of his body. It was not a deep kiss, as neither boy had strength for anything more then relaxing.

"You'll be fully recovered by tomorrow..." the fox reasured the demon. "Now let's go to sleep."

"Yeah..." Hiei replied softly, burrowing his face in the crook of the fox's neck.

Both boys quickly fell asleep, arms around each other, holding the other close... and would both risk their life for the other... which they knew would come to face them in the future.

Two famous demons... sleeping together... loving each other... attacking one of them would be suicide.

Hiei felt invincible with the fox next to his side. This was what he had always wanted... and he had gotten it. He hated to feel selfish like this.. but hey, it was true.

Kurama felt exactly the same.

The only problem would be telling the others about them...

Yeah right. They'd never know.
