Chapter 5

They all sat around in a circle in the main room of the temple and prepared to play Truth or Dare. They called Kurama and asked if he would like to play and they waited for him to arrive. The girls decided that Keiko would go first.

"What is this game?" Hiei asked.

Botan giggled, "It is called Truth or Dare, and Keiko will go first. She will pick someone and ask them 'Truth or Dare?' They will pick, and then she will either ask a question if it is truth, or she will tell them to do something if it is dare. If someone picks truth then they have to answer with the truth, and they have to answer. If they pick dare, they have an option of doing the first dare, or the entire group comes up with one, which is usually worse. Does that make sense?"

"Hn, it sounds stupid," Hiei said.

"It is fun Hiei. I play with Botan, Keiko, and Shizuru all the time," Yukina said brightly.

"Hn."

"Okay, Botan, truth or dare?" Keiko asked.

"Truth," Botan answered smiling.

"Did you enjoy putting aloe on Hiei's back earlier?" Keiko asked.

"Um, well I made him let me since he had put some on my back, so I would say yes because I was returning the favor," Botan said. "Kurama, truth or dare?"

"Truth," he replied calmly.

"Do you like-like any of the girls in this room?" Botan asked mischievously.

Kurama blushed and stammered, "Um, as a matter of fact I do."

Then girls all started to giggle, and Yusuke and Kuwabara tried to get Kurama to tell them who. Kurama just kept blushing brighter and brighter until Botan broke in telling them that they had to continue the game.

"Um, Yusuke, truth or dare?" Kurama asked still red.

"Dare, a real man always picks dare," Yusuke replied.

"I dare you to tell Keiko exactly how you feel about her," Kurama said smirking.

Yusuke blushed and turned to Keiko, "Keiko, I think you are the most beautiful woman in the world, and I love you."

Keiko squealed, and jumped into Yusuke's arms kissing him senseless. The two finally broke apart because of Kuwabara and Shizuru wolf whistling. They were both redder than Kurama had been.

"Kuwabara, truth or dare?" Yusuke asked.

"Dare, of course Kuwabara is a man!" he answered.

"I dare you to dress like a girl for the rest of the night," Yusuke said laughing.

Everyone laughed as Kuwabara and Shizuru left the room, then Shizuru came back and said that Kuwabara would be out soon. Kuwabara came out in a dress. The entire group began laughing.

"Oh, Kuwabara that looks so good on you!" Botan said between bouts of hysterical laughter.

"I always knew there was something strange about you," Hiei said smirking.

"Shut your mouth shrimp!" Kuwabara said angrily.

"Get over it bro, it's your turn," Shizuru said.

"Sis, truth or dare?" Kuwabara said.

"Dare," she said bored.

"I dare you to pick Hiei," Kuwabara said.

Shizuru shrugged, "Hiei, truth or dare?"

"Hn, dare," he replied.

"I dare you to make out with Botan," Shizuru said smirking.

"WHAT?!" Botan screamed.

"I dared Hiei to make out with you, and just so you know fire-boy that means tongue," Shizuru said.

Hiei growled at Shizuru, "Do I have another option?"

"Sure you can do what the group suggests. What do we say people? I suggest that if he doesn't make out with Botan he has to tell his biggest secret," Shizuru said smirking.

The group agreed that those would be his options. Hiei was fuming. They knew that was the only way to get him to make out with the ferry girl. He had finally decided that he didn't hate her, but that did not mean he wanted to make out with her.

"Fine I will kiss the Onna," he said.

Hiei walked over to Botan. He had no idea what to do, and he did not want everyone watching, but he knew he had to. They stood there for a long time both looking at each other.

"You know it usually works better if you put your arms around her waist Hiei," Yusuke said grinning.

"Shut up Detective!" Hiei growled.

Hiei gently put his arms around Botan's waist, he was truly glad he had grown some, because he was taller than the girl. It would make this easier on both of them now. Hiei slowly lowered his mouth to Botan's, and lightly touched his lips to hers. He did not want to rush her, but when her arms instinctively wrapped around his neck, he instantly deepened the kiss, his tongue slipping out of his mouth and stroking Botan's lower lip. Her mouth opened and Hiei's tongue darted into her mouth. They kissed for a few seconds, and then Yusuke whistled. Hiei jerked back away from Botan, both of them blushing like mad. They then sat back down and continued the game.

"Fox, truth or dare?" Hiei asked.

"Dare," Kurama said hoping that he would not get trapped into revealing who he harbored feelings for.

"I dare you to make out with whichever one of these girls is the one you like," Hiei said smirking.

Kurama blushed. He got up and walked over to where Botan and Yukina were sitting. All the girls were giggling, and the guys were complimenting Hiei on his smoothness in making Kurama reveal the girl he liked. Botan and Yukina were both giggling and blushing, and when Kurama gently took Botan's hand, Botan blushed even brighter. Kurama gently tugged Botan to her feet, and gently wrapped his arms around the girl's tiny waist. Botan's hands slid up to Kurama's shoulders. She licked her lips nervously, and Yusuke decided to give some pointers. Both of them ignored him, and Kurama slowly lowered his mouth to Botan's. When Kurama's lips met Botan's her arms wrapped around his neck. Kurama tried not to groan, and gently let his tongue caress her lower lip. Botan shyly opened her mouth, and Kurama wasted no time in slipping his tongue into her mouth. His arms tightened around her waist, and he was delighted when she started kissing him back. Then they heard another whistle, and Kurama detected a growl, and the two broke apart.

"Wow, Kurama, your face is redder than your hair," Yusuke said laughing.

"Look, Botan's is too," Keiko said.

Botan hid her face behind her hands and quickly sat back down next to Hiei and Yukina. Kurama went back to his seat on the opposite side of the circle. Kurama then realized that Yukina and Keiko had yet to be chosen, so he decided he would pick one of them.

"Yukina, truth or dare?" Kurama asked kindly.

"Dare," Yukina said softly.

"I dare you to hug Hiei," Kurama said smiling, at how he was getting Hiei back.

Yukina giggled and stood up. She walked over and smiled at Hiei, who reluctantly stood as well. Yukina suddenly jumped on Hiei wrapping her arms around his neck. Hiei instantly wrapped his arms around the girl's waist so she wouldn't fall.

"Awww… that is so cute," Botan said after a few seconds.

Yukina blushed slightly and pulled away sitting back down. She liked Hiei, and couldn't help but hope that her brother was just like the fire demon.

"Keiko, truth or dare?" Yukina asked softly.

"Truth," she replied.

Yukina thought for a second, "Do you love Yusuke?"

Keiko smiled, "With all of my heart."

Yusuke smiled at Keiko and took her hand in his. She smiled up at him and knew instinctively that holding her hand like that was his way of saying that he loved her too.

Keiko grinned, "Yusuke, truth or dare?"

"Dare," he said grinning.

"I dare you to pick truth at least twice tonight," Keiko said grinning.

Yusuke groaned. He hated truth especially when there were girls playing. He hated it because they always asked hard questions. He then grinned at his brilliant idea.

"Botan, truth or dare?" Yusuke said smirking.

"Truth!" Botan yelled immediately.

"Perfect, who kisses better, Hiei or Kurama?" he said smirking.

Botan's jaw dropped and she turned bright red. She quickly put her hands over her face. She could not believe Yusuke had asked that question. She wanted to sink into the floor and never come back. She could swear that her face was on fire. She had never been this red before in her life. She also knew Hiei was embarrassed too, she could feel it. She did not want to embarrass either one of the boys they were her friends. But the worst part about it was that they were both incredible. She did not want to say that, but if she said anything else she would be lying, and she couldn't do that.

"Theywerebothamazing," she said as quickly and quietly as she could hands still over her face.

"What, I'm sorry Botan but I couldn't hear that," Yusuke said.

Botan blushed even brighter, but removed her hands from her face. Not making eye contact with either of the demons she shouted, "Theywerebothamazing!"

Again she rushed the words so much there were no spaces between the words, but it was loud enough that everyone heard it. Botan would not look up, and she had scooted closer to Yukina. Botan could feel the embarrassed pride through the demon collar, as well as a sting of jealously coming from Hiei, but she would not look up and meet Kurama's eyes. She knew both boys would be just as red as she was, and if she looked at either one of them she would turn even redder.

Keiko, Shizuru, Yusuke, and Kuwabara started laughing. It was so funny to see all three of them looking at the floor and being that red. Finally Shizuru reminded Botan that it was her turn. She nodded and without looking up asked Yukina if she wanted truth or dare.

"Truth, this time," Yukina said softly.

Suddenly Botan had an idea. It was the perfect way to get Hiei to feel comfortable enough to tell her he was her brother.

"Yukina is there anyone in this room you would want your brother to be like?" Botan asked looking up at the girl.

Yukina smiled, "Yes, I would love for my brother to be just like Hiei. He is always so kind to me and he seems to care a lot. I wish my brother was like him."

Botan smiled. She had known that Yukina would say that. They had had this conversation in the past, and Botan knew it would help Hiei get over his fear that his sister would reject him.

Yukina turned to Hiei, "Hiei truth or dare?"

Hiei thought about it for a moment, "Truth Yukina."

"How do you feel about Botan?" she asked innocently.

Hiei didn't know what to say. He had just recently decided he did not hate her, and he had decided that she was attractive, but he did not want to say these things. But then again he had agreed to the rules of this game and one of those rules was to tell the truth. It would go against his honor code to break the rules. And the other rule was he had to answer. This could be interesting.
