Yusuke eyed his boyfriend with a wary look. The emerald-eyed man had been acting exactly the same way, but something felt off beam. Their kisses had began to mislay the passion they once sparked; their not-so-innocent strokes began to disperse; and the thing that ached him the most was he lack of communication. He felt like it was up to him to bring his love back from whatever had happened to him.

Aside from Kurama's strange behavior, he also noticed how Hiei had been hanging out in their apartment as of late. It didn't bother him since Hiei had been close to Kurama before he had left for the Makai, and had not seen him or even had a proper talk with him. To anyone it might seem suspicious to see the two demons together, but he had heard that Mukuro was going to mate with Hiei. That and he trusted Kurama to be faithful with him.

However, he knew better than to not forgive Kurama if he was cheating on him. Kurama forgave him when he had had an affair with Keiko while they had been dating. It was fair to offer his lover the second chance that he got. With that being decided, he made up his mind about confronting Kurama with the issue that his mind troubled him with.

And a perfect opportunity was presented to him when Kurama walked inside into the apartment with many bags in his hands. "Shopping? Wow, Kurama, I knew you were feminine but you don't have to take it that far," he teased the redhead.

"Unlike you, my love, I want to have presentable outfits to were whenever a special occasion arises," he retorted as he dropped the bags in front of him. "Don't fret, I got you some things too."

Yusuke rolled his eyes and stood up from his chair. "Great, so now I'll look decent?" he asked, playfulness in his tone. Before his lover got a chance to answer, he pushed him against the wall and began to mark his neck. The small moaning noises that the long-haired man made encouraged him to take it further. Yet someone didn't think so since the doorbell rang and forced them apart, or rather Kurama pushed Yusuke off from him to go get the door.

He walked behind his lover and gave him a quick grope on his rear before the door was opened all the way to reveal his fox's best friend. "Hiei!" he shouted with enthusiasm. His earlier plans for interrogating Kurama about the fire demon came back to him and he mumbled a swear to himself about getting distracted.

"Yusuke," the fire demon greeted, eyes remaining on Kurama. Yusuke turned to face the fox, but was interrupted from asking anything by the phone ringing. "Shouldn't you get that?" Hiei asked, smirk on his face. He could've kicked Hiei out of his home, but then he would've felt like a jerk. That and his chances of sleeping alone for a week if he did that would have been high. Ignoring the glares that Hiei threw at him, he went to go pick up the phone.

"Hello?" He answered, already losing patience with the whoever was on the other end of the line.

"Yusuke, we have to meet soon," the voice said. At once he understood what the words meant. This wasn't going to be an easy task, he knew. Looking back at Hiei and Kurama talking together, he made an impulsive decision.
