'Muhahahhahahahaha! Now I have something to do tomorrow!' Izzy squealed in her head. ' I shall have to fling them together. Lock them in closets, stick them on boats and send them out to sea, that sort of thing…' and with that an entire lives future was planned out for her oldest sister.
The next morning the house awoke to the smell of something baking downstairs. Slowly, sounds of stirring could be heard coming from all the rooms, but Raya's.
"Athren!" Izzy called, hoping to catch him before he came down stairs. "Would you please wake Raya up for me?"
"Can do!" he called back happily, ever the morning person. He could be heard going back up the stairs.
"Hey. Where's Kurama?" Yusuke asked, but before anyone could answer Athren ran back downstairs.
"You have to get upstairs NOW!" he whisper-yelled while jumping up and down like a giddy schoolgirl. Quickly he turned around and raced back upstairs, with the others slowly following behind. When they crowded around the open door, there were stifled giggles and unrestrained gasps from every one as they awed at the scene before them. Rayanna was laying all the way across Kurama, her head on the opposite shoulder from the side she was laying on. He had one arm around her waist with the other intertwined with hers.
"OHMIGOD RAYA! You are such a whore!" Hikaru screamed before laughing and going back to the kitchen.
"Wha' hapnd?" Raya sat up and looked around without realizing what was going on.
"You, my dear, were just caught in bed with a man you met three days ago."Athren said. When Raya looked over at him, she saw he had his arms crossed over his chest and he was tapping his foot, with a very annoyed look on his face.
"Ummm. I can explain?" Raya offered.
"Well I should hope so."Izzy laughed.
"I," Kurama began, completely unphased, "am simply being a good babysitter by making sure nothing bad happened to her while she was asleep." He punctuated the end of his statement with a nod.
"If you're just babysitting, then why don't you have a shirt on, Casanova?" Izzy asked, still giggling.
"Because it got hot in here." He answered. The group fell silent.
"Which explains why I'm not wearing pants…" As Raya continued to look under the covers, they shut the door and walked away. "Because it got hot in here?"
"Well? It's the truth. It's not my fault that your family can't keep their minds out of the gutter!" Kurama looked down at Raya.
"Actually, it's probably my fault. Because I'm the oldest, you know." As she spoke, she took his hand and climbed out of bed. "We need to make ourselves decent and go down for breakfast." She let go his hand and started toward the bathroom. It was then he saw that see really wasn't wearing pants. Where her boxers had been the night before were now only lacy red underwear. He chuckled quietly and thought 'She's just full of surprises.'
Just before she entered the bathroom, she looked back over shoulder and gave him a mischievous grin. "I have an idea."
Back downstairs, all sat in silence. Izzy was the first to regain the ability to speak.
"It looks like our little Raya is all grown up!" She laughed and went to get the syrup.
"So that's what their calling it nowadays." Seiko teased.
"He will pay for what he did to my Raya." Athren huffed at no one in particular.
It was then that Rayanna and Kurama came downstairs. The room was silenced again. Raya was dressed, just not in her own clothes. Actually, it appeared that all she was wearing was Kurama's shirt from the day before.
"Wow. You really don't have any shame, do you?" Amaya looked her sister over, and was quite amused with the sight.
"I never claimed to." She smiled back at the crowd of friends and family around the kitchen table.
"This family just keeps getting stranger." Yusuke wasn't sure whether to laugh or be embarrassed at what he saw.
"You should meet our parents!" Hikaru retorted.
"NO! No one ever needs to meet them!" Raya jumped dramatically into the dining room.
"Still high aren't you." Izzy said as she brought the remainder of the waffles to the table.
"Sweet! Chocolate chip! I love you!" Raya squealed as she glomped her sister. "And yes, yes I am. Got 12 more hours of it! Or I should say that y'all have 12 more hours of it!" she laughed and took her place at the head of the table.
"So, what are we gonna do today?" Yusuke asked (between bites that is).
"Well, today is Saturday, so we clean this morning, train in the afternoon and club tonight" Raya looked at him, judging the reaction.
"Okay. What do we have to clean?" he questioned, completely okay with the days agenda.
"You will help Izzy clean. She has to clean her room and the kitchen. Athren and Akira will do her room and the living room. Amaya and Seiko do her room and the bathroom. Hikaru and…" she looked around the room, "Hiei will clean—"
"HELL NO! I WILL NOT HELP HER!" Hiei jumped out of his chair (yes, he was at the table like a good guestbut only at the treat of castration), sending the chair flying out behind him.
"That's part of the deal. You are on my team, so you will do whatever I say!" Raya glared at him evilly. He shuddered (and yes, Raya is that evil…Muhahahahahahahahahahah…).
"And how will you make me?" Hiei was determined to stand his ground.
At that, Rayanna stood up and sauntered over to him. She put a hand on his shoulder and whispered into his ear. After she was done, he picked up his chair and set back down.
"As I was saying, Hikaru and Hiei will clean her room and do the laundry. And finally, Kurama and I will clean my room and bathroom." Raya sat back down and picked up her coffee cup.
"Wow. I have never seen anyone be able to do that to him before." Kurama was the only one that spoke.
"She generally has that effect on people."Akira nodded.
"Anyway, Genkia is expecting us at one. She will help me whip you guys in to shape. Kuwabara is going to meet us there"
After breakfast, all went to do their chores. All went well for a time, but every one knew that it couldn't last forever.
