"Hey, Keiko, who's the kid? Looks kinda like the shrimp." Kuwabara said loudly, walking up to her during lunch.
"Keep it down, Kuwabara, he's sleeping." She looked at him sternly.
"Oh..sorry..but still, who is it?" He pressed.
"It's Hiei." She said.
"What?!" He jumped up, bringing a lot of attention to himself.
"I told you to keep it down! Now you woke him up!" Hiei was stretching awkwardly in Keiko's arms as he looked around.
Oh no. Oh HELL no. That wasn't the giant oaf, was it? Damn it. This would end badly. Keiko flipped him so he was vertical and looked into his eyes. He just yawned in annoyance. She smiled and held him to her chest, allowing him to fall back asleep with her breasts as a pillow (As all men do at least once in their life.)
"Well...how'd it happen?" Kuwabara asked. Keiko sighed heavily and explained in hushed tones. "Wow..."
"Yes. And he'll remember everything, so if you don't want to die, shut your mouth." Keiko glared heavily at him.
"Ok...so are you going home after lunch?" He asked.
"Obviously. I have no more classes." She rolled her eyes and moved to put Hiei into his car seat.
"Wait..can I hold him?" Kuwabara asked.
"...you do realize who you're talking about, right?" She asked.
"I know...he just looks so cute and innocent though." Kuwabara grinned. She sighed and handed him the child.
After a few moments Hiei squirmed. There was a strong new scent invading his nostrals and he despised it. He wanted it gone. He kicked and flailed his arms in an attempt to rid himself of the nauseating stench. when that failed he resorted to plan B. He fussed loudly, not quite crying, but making his discomfort known. Kuwabara quickly handed him back to Keiko, who put him into the car seat. He stared at her with a tilted head. What was that all about?
"Go back to sleep, ok, Hiei?" She smiled.
Hiei closed his eyes and found he wasn't going to be sleeping any time soon. He sighed and opened his eyes, watching the kids faces as he passed silently. It was still early, and he was terribly bored. He wondered breifly where Keiko was taking him, then decided it didn't really matter, because he had no say anyway. He felt the car seat touch the ground and wiggled uncomfortably. He hated the damned thing.
"Hi, one for the latest release." She said.
"You do know that if your baby makes a racket you will be asked to leave." The man said.
"Oh, he's fine. Right, Hiei?" She smiled down at the infant version of her friend and he smiled back.
He wasn't sure why, but he decided he was going to behave for her. The man handed her a ticket and Hiei sat silently through the whole movie. He was growing rather uncomfortable though, and as soon as it was done he whined loudly. She smiled at him.
"What? You didn't like it?" She picked him up out of the seat and patted his bottom.
He nuzzled against her and she smiled softly. It was amazing how innocent demons could be. She carried him back to Kurama's house, seeing that it was almost 6. Kurama answered the door with a smile and she handed Hiei off to him.
"I think he's got baby instincts or something, because he's definately taking on the role of an infant quite well." She smiled.
"Yes, well, Hiei was always one to live off of instinct." Kurama sat down and watched Hiei's eyes wander around the room.
"It's cute." Keiko grinned. "I have to get going now. I'll see you guys later."
"Alright, bye." Kurama nodded.
He unconsiously placed a hand on Hiei's chest, as though to remind the fire demon he was still there. Hiei grabbed two of Kurama's fingers and brought his hand up over his face. Kurama looked down at him curiously.
"Hey...maybe we can still talk." Kurama grinned.
"Oh yeah? How?" Hiei gurgled.
"I mean it! Look, I'll ask you a yes or no question, and if the answer is yes, grab my fingers with both hands, if the answer's no, grab it with only one." Kurama smiled. "Alright...so...let go of my hand."
Hiei released his grip on Kurama's hand.
"So...are you mad at me?" Kurama looked into his eyes. Hiei reached up with only one hand. "Really? Ok then...do you get mad that everyone's babying you? Be honest.."
Hiei reached up again with only one hand. "Are you lying to make me feel better?" Hiei squeezed tighter. "Ok, ok. So, are you going to freak out if I give you a bath?" Hiei reached up with both hands and squeezed tightly.
"Well, you can't stay dirty for a year." Kurama said. Hiei kicked his feet rapidly and let out an annoyed screech. "Are you embarassed?" Hiei's hands shot back to himself inrefusal to answer. "Aww, you are! What? Don't want me seeing your junk? We've got the same stuff anyway." He plucked Hiei up and ran a small bath for him. He stripped the boy while he tantrumed in his arms and then lay him down in the water.
Hiei kicked and yelled louder than ever before. He hated water! He hated Kurama for doing this to him! He hated everything! But more than anything...he hated that those fingers were running through his hair and along his body without him being able to do anything. He was suddenly thankful for his size, so that Kurama wouldn't see that he was getting turned on. Damn, that would be awkward, an infant with a hard-on. It didn't matter. Kurama couldn't see any physical signs of how he was feeling because there were none. He was glad his mind and body didn't work well together on that front at this size.
Kurama suddenly lifted him out of the water, causing him to howl at the sudden cold. Kurama laughed and wrapped him up in a towel. He held Hiei close to him while drying him off.
"Worse things have happened to you, I'm sure." Kurama said. Hiei just sighed and nuzzled against Kurama, his eyes closing. "What? Are you tired? I'll put you to bed, just hold on."
Hiei looked at him. He didn't want to go to bed. He wanted Kurama to hold him. He was inwardly ashamed at how needy he was being. Kurama lay him down and put a diaper on him. He dressed him quickly and made a bottle. Hiei didn't really mind being dependant on Kurama anymore. Not that he wanted to be a burdon to his friend in anyway. Kurama held him and fed him, and just as Hiei was falling asleep Kurama put him in bed, causing him to wake up instantly. He fussed immediately, not realizing he was doing so until Kurama had picked him back up. He blushed a deep red.
"Want me to hold you?" Hiei grabbed Kurama's hand with both of his. He didn't care right now. It's not like Kurama would leave him on the streets to die. "Alright then."
He wandered out into the living room and lay down on the couch. Hiei was resting belly down on Kurama's chest, listening to his heartbeat. Kurama placed a warm blanket over him and he fell asleep shortly after. Soon enough Kurama dozed off as well, his hand placed protectively over the tiny demon in his arms.
