Hey everyone, part two is here! Read and review!

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The next few days passed by uneventfully with Hiei's healing making good progress. Once a day Hiei was fed the disgusting blue soup and lay there bored. At night Kurama would come up and talk to him but that was about it.

Finally, two weeks later, Hiei was allowed to get out of bed but Kurama still forbade him from leaving the house. Not that Hiei would get far anyway. With his arm in a slings and having to use a crutch for his bandaged leg Hiei could barely walk.

"Now there's the TV and DVD player if you want something to do. So rest up and try not to move around too much. Any questions?" said Kurama. Hiei went over and examined the devices. "Yeah…how do you work these things?" he asked, looking over his shoulder at the red head. Kurama went over and stood next to him. "I'm sorry Hiei I forgot you weren't familiar with these. Ok…" After Kurama had finished explaining about TVs and how they work Kurama left to but groceries. Hiei plopped himself down on the couch and picked up the TV remote. Looking at all the little buttons he finally pressed the little red one that Kurama had explained, turned on the TV. Hiei watched, his boyish face full of childlike wonder, as a picture appeared on the screen and started to move. Hiei started flicking through the channels and finally settled on a cartoon.

Kurama arrived home and found Hiei watching Loony Toons and chuckled to himself at how childish Hiei looked. "I'm home!" he yelled out from the kitchen as he started putting away the groceries. "Hn." Was all he heard from Hiei. Kurama then proceeded to cook dinner.

It wasn't long before Hiei and Kurama were eating, Kurama unsuccessfully trying to make conversation. "So did you have fun while I was out?" He asked. "Hn." Hiei grunted. "Ummm…so how are you feeling?" "Hn." Kurama sighed in defeat and the two of them proceeded to finish their meal in silence.

Soon after the phone rang. Kurama walked over and answered.

"Hello?"

"Hey Kurama."

"Oh Yusuke, hi. For what do I owe the pleasure?"

"Well the rest of us are planning on going out clubbing tomorrow and we were wondering if you'd like to come with us?"

"Sure. What time?"

"About 7pm. We're meeting at Kuwabara's."

"Okay, see you then. Bye"

Hanging up Kurama turned around to see Hiei staring at him intently with his ruby eyes. A slight blush worked its way onto Kurama's cheeks. "What was that all about?" Hiei asked in his indifferent tone. "Oh that was Yusuke. Tomorrow we're going to go clubbing with the others." Kurama said smiling slightly. Hiei gave a simple "Hn." Before disappearing up the stairs. Kurama sighed. 'He'll never love me the way I love him.' He thought sadly, laying himself down on the couch to sleep. Though it was to be a long time before sleep finally overcame the lovesick youko.

The next day wasn't very much different from the last. Most of the day was spent lounging around and trying to converse with Hiei. 7 o'clock came fast and it wasn't long before they found themselves outside Kuwabara's house.

Kurama raised his hand to knock but before he could the door swung open and Kuwabara stood there dressed in his white trench coat. "Oh hey Kurama-eh…" he stopped halfway through his sentence when he saw Hiei standing beside him, arm bandaged and still in its sling. "Oh…Hiei." He said nodding his greeting. Hiei didn't even acknowledge him but continued to stare in some random direction. Kuwabara sighed in exasperation. "Won't you please come in." he said cheerfully, turning back to Kurama.

As they entered they were greeted by everyone. Kuwabara, Yusuke, Keiko, Yukina, Botan and Koenma were all there. Everyone was dressed in a kind of formal-casual. The boys wearing simple shirts and pants and the girls wearing simple yet festive garments.

"Are we going or what!" yelled Yusuke. This was greeted by cheers from nearly everyone else and they all filed out the door.

As soon as they entered the club they were surrounded by loud music and flashing neon lights. The smell of alcohol overwhelmed Hiei's senses. "Hey over here guys!" came Yusuke's voice from a nearby booth. Making his way over there Hiei couldn't help glaring at all the humans around him. Hiei sat across from Kurama. At first everyone was just making friendly chit-chat but soon all but Hiei and Kurama had moved onto the dance floor. Hiei felt Kurama's eyes on him and turned towards him. "What?" Hiei asked, mentally noting the far-away look on his friends face. Kurama blushed at being caught staring. "Nothing! Nothing!" he said quickly. Kurama turned and looked around him. This time it was Hiei who could not take his eyes of Kurama. 'Why am I staring at him?' he asked himself. A strange feeling stirred in the pit of his stomach. Kurama as if sensing his thoughts turned to look at him. Hiei quickly looked away. Kurama smiled lightly. It was strange in a way. Seeing Hiei there, among people, wearing a blue muscle shirt and a pair of black jeans instead of his normal black cloak. "Do you want to get a drink?" asked Kurama. Hiei gave a slight nod and the two of them made their way to the bar. Hiei sat and ordered them two beers. Their drinks arrived quickly and the two sat in silence each harbouring in their own thoughts.

A couple of drinks seemed to loosen Hiei's tongue and soon the two of them were engaged in friendly conversation. They talked of past battles and laughed at the occasional memory.

As the night moved along Hiei wisely decided he had had enough to drink but Kurama if anything started drinking twice as much. It wasn't long before he was completely drunk. In his current state of mind Kurama saw no harm in openly talking about anything and everything. "Do you remember when I was Yoko Kurama?" Kurama slurred. "Yeah." Muttered Hiei, long past listening. "Yeah, those were great times…Did you know that it takes 17 muscles to smile?" "Mmhmm…" "Yeah. Hahaheheha…" All of a sudden Kurama became serious, putting his face close to Hiei's. "Hiei I-I love you." Hiei broke from his trance and jumped halfway out of his seat. "WHAT!" he yelled. Kurama didn't say anything instead he leaned in and started kissing him. Hiei pushed the drunk fox off him and stood there panting a few meters away. "I…I have to go." He said hurriedly before disappearing. Yusuke and the others stood next to Kurama. "What's his problem?" asked Yusuke, none of them having heard the conversation. Kurama stared after Hiei sadly, a weight settling in his heart.
