Another super short chapter - sorry!:P It'll be good, though. I really like this song - "You Really Gotta Hold on Me" by the Beatles. I used it in the way that it portrays Kuwabara and Hiei as secretly liking each other - not yaoi, but as friends. Enjoy!:P


The boys laughed out loud as they ran through the sprinklers in somebody's front lawn. They stopped in a park and shivered as the cold night wind whipped around them.

"All right, now where would the girls be?" Yusuke asked, looking around.

"They could be at my house," Kuwabara shrugged, shaking the water from his hair. "I can't wait to see my sweet Yukina again."

Hiei grunted, rolling his eyes at him. Kuwabara turned and glared at Hiei. He popped his knuckles, walking over to short demon.

"You gotta problem, Hiei?"

"You're an idiot." He replied flatly. "She doesn't love you, you're completely clueless."

"Coming from a guy who has a thing for Marilyn Monroe!" Kuwabara snapped, glaring down at Hiei. "She's fuckin' dead, dumb ass! And if she were alive, she wouldn't be with a stupid little shrimp like you!"

"You take that back!" Hiei yelled, standing up on his toes to make eye contact with Kuwabara and matching his death glare. "She is a gorgeous woman!"

Yusuke and Kurama looked from Kuwabara to Hiei then at each other, shrugging. Kuwabara and Hiei stood there for a moment, glaring at each other. Everything was silent except for the sound of crickets.

"I hate you." Kuwabara growled.

Hiei grimaced up at Kuwabara, his lip curling in anger.

"Like wise." He spat.

The two spun around then stomped away from each other.

"I've had it!" Kuwabara yelled, looking back at Hiei. "I don't want to be anywhere near that little shit! I can't take it anymore!"

"Oh, you're leaving?" Hiei asked, a devious sarcastic tone in his voice. "We'll miss you!"

Kuwabara spun around, facing Hiei. Yusuke and Kurama's eyes twitched as bluesy music started to play. Hiei crossed his arms over his chest, tapping his foot to the music as Kuwabara sang, his eyes still narrowed in an angry glare. His mind didn't register what he was singing until he finished his first line.

"I don't like you But I love you Seems that I'm always thinkin' of you Oh ho, ho You do me wrong now My love is strong now."

"You really gotta hold on me," Hiei and Kuwabara sang together, glaring at each other.

You really gotta hold on me The wind in the trees sang.

"You really gotta hold on me."

You really gotta hold on me

"Baby I don't want you But I need you Don't wanna kiss you But I need to," Hiei grimaced at the words he was singing – he didn't like this song as much as the other, but the words just kept coming up like vomit. "Oh, ho, ho You treat me badly I love you madly."

"You really gotta hold on me."

You really gotta hold on me

"You really gotta hold on me."

You really gotta hold on me

"Baby, I love you and all I want you to do is just," Kuwabara and Hiei stepped away from each other slowly, still glaring at each other. "Hold me, Hold me, Hold me, Hold me."

Tighter, Tighter

Kuwabara shoved his hands into his pockets as he and Hiei sang together in perfect harmony.

"I wanna leave you Don't wanna stay here Don't wanna spend another day here Oh, whoa oh, I wanna split now I just can't quit now You really gotta hold on me."

You really gotta hold on me

"You really gotta hold on me."

You really gotta hold on me

"Baby, I love you and all I want you to do is just Hold me,"

Please

"Hold me."

Squeeze

"Hold me. Hold me!"

The two turned their backs on each other and started walking away, leaving the park.

"You really gotta hold on me."

You really gotta hold on me

"You really gotta hold on me."

You really gotta hold on me

The song ended and Yusuke ran after Kuwabara as Kurama ran after Hiei.

"Kuwabara, what the hell was that?" Yusuke asked, putting a hand on his friend shoulder to stop him.

"I hate that guy," Kuwabara mumbled back in response. "He makes everything so difficult! I don't like him, he drives me crazy."

Yusuke sighed, looking at his friend.

"C'mon, let's go find the girls."
