A/N: This chapter is just kind of a fun chapter snuck in there for my own enjoyment. Mini yaoi moment, just a warning! Also, little bit of Hiei-OOC-ness, but I hope that can be excusable. Please read and review!

Line Up and the Cloak Analysis

The next morning, Kurama walked to school with a brilliant plan in his head. He had studied the cloak the night before and had found one thin strand of hair on it. Picking it up with tweezers, he had put it in a Ziploc baggie and brought it to school. He was going to have all of the girls from school line up and give him one of their hairs. After that, he would compare the DNA from the strand he found on the cloak to the DNA from the girls using the school's high-tech science lab. That was a sure way to find out, he thought…

"This is ridiculous," said Keiko as she stood in line with all of the other girls from Black Panda High. "I mean, the hair is probably cat hair or something…"

"I agree, this sure is a bit silly," said Botan. "It's probably not even a girl from this school who's stalking Kurama…"

"Well, I have hair from all 412 girls at this school," Kurama said triumphantly after lunch. "Now all I have to do is look at them all under a microscope and use the computer to see if any are DNA matches."

"Gee, you make that sound so easy," said Yusuke.

"Yeah, why did you have to be so smart?" Kuwabara asked jealously.

"It doesn't take a rocket scientist like Kurama to be smarter than you," Yusuke replied.

"Shut up!"

"Hello, boys," said Botan, walking up to them and putting her hands on Yusuke and Kurama's shoulders. "Have you found your girl yet, Kurama?"

Kurama shook his head. "No. It will take a long time for me to go through everyone's hair. I will have to do it after school."

It was almost 7:00 and Kurama was still at the school, trying to find a match to the hair he found on the cloak. He had gone through 411 hair samples, but none were matches. He looked at the last strand of hair, which was a bleached platinum blonde color, and sighed. It wasn't going to be a match anyway; the hair he found on the cloak was a dark brown or black hair.

"Suichi, are you still here?" came a voice from behind him. Kurama turned around and saw that it was Hiei.

"I'm just leaving," he said resignedly. "No matches." He looked at Hiei and noticed there was something different about him. His cape was smaller than usual; the sleeves came up short and it barely reached his knees. "What's wrong with your cape? Are you getting taller?"

"No," said Hiei bitterly. "I can't find my normal one. This was the only one I have left, and it's too small."

Something clicked in Kurama's mind. He pulled his stalker's cloak from his backpack and held it up, comparing it to Hiei. He came to a conclusion; the cloak belonged to Hiei, and he was sure that the hair did too.

"That's mine!" Hiei shouted, pointing at the cloak. "Why do you have it?"

Hiei reached for it, but Kurama pulled it away. "You're the one who tried to catch me naked in the shower yesterday!"

Hiei paused. "What? No! I would never do that!"

Kurama backed away from him. "Hmm…"

"I swear! That was not me! It's your obsessive anonymous friend who likes you too much!" Hiei protested.

Kurama threw the cloak back at Hiei. "I can't believe you're…" he whispered in shock as he turned away.

"I'm not homosexual, if that's what you're thinking!" Hiei yelled.

"All this time… I thought…"

Kurama felt a pair of hands on his shoulders and looked back to see Hiei there, a soft and seductive smile on his face. His scarlet-brown eyes stared lovingly into his. Kurama stepped back in surprise. Hiei moved forward, his lips nearing Kurama's. They were so close, they could feel each other's breath on their faces. Hiei closed his eyes and planted his lips on Kurama's, sucking all the shock from him. Kurama closed his eyes as well, returning the kiss. The two of them broke away and Hiei whispered, "You're right… I love you…"

"Suichi?"

Kurama woke up with start, his forehead stuck to the eyepiece of the microscope he was using, leaving a dark ring. "Who's there?"

"What are you doing?" Hiei was standing over him, looking at all of the discarded hair samples strewn over the desk.

"Hiei!" Kurama exclaimed, edging away from him. "I know it's you, and I'm not like that, and—!"

"What are you talking about?" questioned Hiei.

Kurama looked in his bag, which was still on the floor. The cloak was still in it. It was all just a dream… He breathed a sigh of relief, letting his shoulders relax. "Whew… Just a dream…" he said.

"What happened?" said Hiei.

"Uh…" Kurama hesitated. "I had a dream…… that………we…………kissed…"

Hiei's eyebrows rose. "…That's absurd," he said shortly.

Kurama exhaled again. "I'm glad you think so," he said. "Now, this cape wouldn't happen to be yours, would it?" Kurama dug out the cloak from his bag and handed it to Hiei.

Hiei looked at it and replied, "Yes. It is. I've been looking for it."

Kurama sighed. "All this DNA testing has gotten me nowhere…"

"I think you're thinking too much about this," Hiei said. "Why can't you just enjoy it like a normal person?"
