Kurama was in his room trying to force himself to read a book. He looked over at the clock on his night stand. It was 2:00. Kurama sighed then suddenly remebered the bet he had made with Rei. This was no time to be embarressed! He opened his laptop to the online journal he had started. His list appeared before him:

Things I know about this guy:

1) I probably know him since Rei wont let me see who it is.

2) Its probably someone she spends alot of time with.

Things I need to know about this guy:

1) Name

2) Class Schedule

3) relationship status

Kurama realized his approach of the problem was rather infantile. He started a new entry into the journal.

October 5,

my approach of this problem was indeed rather stupid. What I need to do is instead of trying to find out who this person is through my own detuctive power, I should try to coax the information out of Rei herself which will proove to be a difficult matter. Note: Girls tend to share secrets amougst themselves, perhaps Botan, Yukina or Kieko will be able to get the information out of her- though I know that they wouldn't possibly just tell me. To solve this problem I must use my cunning in order to get Rei to reveal this information to the girls then try to secretly get it from them. This plan seems simple enough on paper but I can't imagine how difficult this could actually proove to be.

Kurama closed his computer and was feeling comfotable enough to pick his book up again when he heard someone calling his name. It was a very faint, even innocent voice that he soon recognized as Yukina's. He went down the stairs to see Yukina standing in front of Rei's room. She had a sad expression set on her face and seemed to be directing her saddness towards the door.

"what's wrong?" asked Kurama

"well, I came to meet your friend since her room is next to mine and all but she won't open the door... do you think maybe something is wrong?" asked Yukina

"why don't you go downstairs Yukina and I'll take care of Rei" said Kurama

Kurama made sure he saw Yukina walk down the stairs before he turned around and knocked on Rei's door. He didn't hear anything at first then he heard a muffled sound, so he knocked again, this time he recieved a response.

"Go away" said Rei.

"Rei, it's Kurama" He said

"is that supposed to make me feel better?" asked Rei

"come on, don't be embaressed just let me in" said Kurama

"If this was the other way aound would you want to talk to me?" asked Rei

"as a matter of fact I would" said Kurama

"that a load of Shit and you know it" said Rei

"oooh did you just say Sugar honey Iced Tea?" asked Kurama jokingly

"no, I said Shit" said Rei

"come on, if you don't want to talk now I'll leave the door of my room opened and you can come talk to me anytime you want okay?" asked Kurama

There was no answer so Kurama climbed the stairs and walked over to his room. An hour passed by, then two and Rei decided that she really should face Kurama before the whole thing got blown out of proportion. She walked up the stairs and went to Kurama's room and she did indeed find it opened. She went inside the room and this time she locked the door behind her.

"you came" said Kurama

"yeah" said Rei.

"listen, taht really was an accident... I just went in to get my sock and that's all okay" said Kurama

"okay" said Rei.

"really? So we're okay now right?" asked Kurama.

"not nearly" said Rei smiling.

"why not?" asked Kurama.

"well you saw me now I have to see you" said Rei

"I don't think so" said Kurama

"Why? are you scared?" asked Rei

"It's one thing to walk in on somebody and it's another thing to purposely show somebody" said Kurama.

Rei noded, not because she truly agreed with him... but because she knew she had one over him, she knew she could use this as an advantage sort of like a get out of Jail card and she'd be sure to use it well.


Koenma sent the gang on a trip to the other side of Japan, They took a jet to an underground location then continued from there to the hotel. There were eight people and four rooms so therfor some people needed to share. Kurama got a room with Hiei and Yusuke got a room with Kuwabara. Kieko got a room with Botan and Yukina got a room with Rei.

Rei was in her room unpacking when she noticed that Yukina had been deliberately avoiding conversations with her and was even avoiding her gaze. After about half an hour she threw down what she was folding and confronted Yukina.

"do you have a problem with me or something?" asked Rei

"no" said Yukina timidly

"so why are you acting so wierd around me?" asked Rei

"I thought you didn't like me" said Yukina

"where did you get an idea loke that?" asked Rei

"well you wouldn't talk to me yesterday" said Yukina

"oh, me and Kurama were having minor problems" said Rei smiling

"well that would explain alot" said Yukina grinning.

"I'm glad that's all cleared up" said Rei.

"well, I'd hate to be nost but what were you fighting about?" asked Yukina

"well, It wasn't afight... It's just that Kurama walked in on me" said Rei

"where?" asked Yukina

"in the bathroom, after I had showered" said Rei

"Oh my" said Yukina putting her hand over her mouth.

"don't worry about it, its all sorted out okay" said Rei.

"Okay" said Yukina smiling.

Rei smiled back at her.

"so..." started Yukina

"yes?" asked Rei

"do you like him?" asked Yukina

"yeah, he's a nice guy" said Rei.

" no, I mean, like-like" said Yukina.

Rei looked up from her clothes and into Yukina eyes.

"yeah, " she alost whispered

Yukina giigled.

"but don't tell okay" said Rei

"okay I won't" said Yukina.


Kurama rubbed his cheeks. He was shocked. He had been listening to Yukina and Rei's conversation. He felt guilty, he knew he shouldn't have done it and he could never look Rei in the face now. Sure girls have had crushes on Kurama before but none had been as infatuated as Rei seemed to be. He remebered her awkward behavior whenever he would brush up on her by accident. He recalled when she would frantically hide drawings whenever he walked into her room. He was now not so much surprised at Rei liking him but more so at his own stupidity.
