I do not own Yu Yu Hakusho and its characters
Kuwabara sat, somewhat irritated, on his sofa, trying to shut out the loud arguing of the demons upstairs. He crossed his arm, gritting his teeth slowly as the fighting got a level louder. Taking a deep breath, he held it a moment before releasing it, upset to some extent. He had hoped that they could all settle this awkward situation civilly. Very quickly, this hope had been crushed. The minute they started shouting, he had just left the room. This was the exact reason he hadn't wanted to deal with them. It wasn't that he didn't enjoy a good argument, but when its aim was to be truly hurtful, then he wanted no part of it. Especially when the fighting was about having sex with him. That was odd too. While there were a few qualms between all of them about actually having sex with another man (this was mostly Yusuke), most of the fighting was about who did what to who and who's fault it was. The demons had all agreed that Kuwabara was in no way the one to blame. The ginger almost wish they had blamed him, then the fighting could just be done and over with.
The sword-wielder paused his train of thought to listen to what topic they were arguing about now. He only needed to hear a little to make his blood boil. The three were fighting over who owned him! They were shouting about how since he was the instigator of the whole thing and never dominated during it, that made him the "bitch" and how only one of them could be his rightful "mate"! He clenched his fists and got up. He could let other things slide, but not this. Definitely not this.
"I screwed him first! That makes him mine!" Yusuke yelled rudely, sneering violently. Kurama took an insulted stance, his hands firmly against his hips. Hiei stood to the side. This subject just wasn't his fight. He didn't really want the big oaf like the others seemed to. Instinct told him otherwise, but it wasn't enough to overpower him. For this he was thankful.
"I would have taken him first if you hadn't interrupted! We made a pact that we could both pleasure him and you took advantage of it, taking it all the way like that. He should be rightfully mine!" The kitsune snapped back, his eyes glowing furiously. Suddenly, the tension was shattered as the door slammed open, almost wrenched from its hinges.
"SHUT UP!" The bickering demons were shocked into silence at the sight of the enraged ginger who had burst into the room. "Just shut up, all of you!" Kurama started to say something. "No, I said shut up! Now shut up!" The larger man looked ready to decapitate everyone in the room. The fox decided that his comment wasn't all that important after all. With a breath, Kuwabara slowly lowered his anger to a more irritable level. "Good. Now you're all going to stay quiet and listen. First of all, no one owns me except me, got it? Nobody here is my mate and I am nobody's bitch. Have I made myself clear?" Yusuke and Kurama nodded quickly. "Alright, second. No one is to blame for all this, it just happened. Nothing of dire consequence has come from it. And while things have been rather awkward this morning, if you just think a moment, last night was rather... pleasurable." Everyone in the room blushed a little, but only to a fraction of the color they had been the previous night.
"Well, I will admit to that." Kurama mumbled sheepishly. Yusuke and Hiei didn't seem all too interested in speaking their minds right then, but inwardly agreed.
"Good. Then we agree. This was all just an unusual, but very pleasurable experience caused by a demon artifact and nothing more. It's over now and we can put it behind us for good and get back to our lives. If you want to dwell on it, dwell on the positives, not the negatives." Kuwabara stated matter-o-factly. The three knew better than to argue with him. "Now, once you all kiss and make up, come down to get something to eat. I'll be making waffles." And with that, the ginger left to start his day.
"Um..." Yusuke looked at the other two demons, unsure of what to say.
"My apologies to both of you. Kuwabara's right. It's childish of us, fighting like this." Kurama said quietly, but with meaning. The spirit detective beside him sighed.
"Yeah, I'm sorry too. I don't know what's gotten into me."
"I suppose..I am too.." Hiei mumbled just loud enough to hear.
"Yes...well...Now that that's been seen to, I believe we owe the biggest apology to Kuwabara." The red-head started. "He's gone through the most uncomfortable part of this experience and he's taking it much better than we are. He even tried to settle things rather amicably before we blew him off and started going for each other's throats."
"Right. I feel kinda bad about that. What the hell was I even thinking, saying I owned him? That's just...wrong!" Yusuke scolded himself, but deep down, it still didn't feel as wrong as he made it sound. It still seemed a little messed up if he though about it too hard, but in his mind, the ginger was still his. He would just have to keep this to himself for a little while.
"Being a demon will do that to you." Hiei answered with a smirk. "The second you put your energies into someone else, instinct kicks in and they're yours to you whether they want to be or not."
"Please tell me that's only temporary...I don't want to go the rest of my life having to suppress the urge to fuck my best friend."
"Not to worry Yusuke." The kitsune interjected calmly. "If we distance ourselves from him for about two weeks or so, our energies will bleed out of his system over time. If all goes well, he'll seem to you just as he was before all this. Attraction wise at least."
"That's good." The demon was relieved to know that this wasn't going to haunt him for the rest of his life."Now, how about those waffles?"
Waffles turned out to be pancakes because Kuwabara couldn't find the waffle iron, so he just decided to use the griddle instead. Not that anyone was really bothered by this. They all apologized to the larger man for acting so foolishly and settled down for breakfast. Yusuke had claimed a sizable stack for himself and was eating happily. Hiei had disappeared, but so had several pancakes, so the ginger guessed he'd gone off somewhere to eat in private. The fox demon was in the bathroom washing up and had requested to have some breakfast put aside for him. Everyone seen to, the proud chef grabbed a plate for himself and sat across from Yusuke. The half-demon paused his eating a moment.
"I didn't know you could cook like this Kuwabara. These things taste great!" The ginger looked at the black-haired man oddly. His smile was so strained, it hurt. The psychic couldn't really blame his friend though, it had been a rough morning and he was trying his best.
"Thanks Urameshi. Shizuru could probably even burn water if I let her in the kitchen, so I've always been the cook of the household."
"Cool." There was a moment of tense silence between them, both avoiding eye contact and suddenly becoming very interested in their breakfasts.
"Kuwabara?" Kurama had finished in the restroom and turned to join them. He was focusing on several magazines in his hands. "I don't mean to be rude for asking, but...is Shizuru expecting?" Kuwabara stared at the kitsune like he had grown another head.
"Not that I know of...Why?" The taller man found himself a little uneasy. What reason did the fox have for thinking that?
"I guess it's nothing really. I just found these parenting magazines in the bathroom and I suppose my curiosity got the better of me."
"Oh." Kuwabara's face flushed. "Those are..um...mine." Yusuke choked on his pancake.
"Yours? Please don't tell me you have gotten someone pregnant." Especially Yukina. If the he had gotten the ice apparition pregnant, Hiei would probably gut and flay him, put him back together then do it again, all before noon, but Kurama thought that was best left unsaid.
"No, no. Nothing like that. Last night was my first time anyway." Yusuke choked again."You see...well..." The ginger's blush deepened and he began to fidget. "I've kinda sorta always wanted kids. It's been something I've always dreamed about. The magazines are just for...you know...if it ever happens. Then I'll be ready.." Kurama grinned.
"Kuwabara, wanting to be a parent is nothing to be embarrassed about. I think it's wonderful. Most men your age squirm at the idea of a commitment like that."
"Really?"
"It's true. And besides, I think you'd make a great father if how you care for Eiikichi is anything to go by. You practically baby that cat." Kuwabara's eyes widened.
"Oh shit! I forgot to let her in!" He sprang up from his seat and rushed to the back door. Opening it, his cat walked in, looking as irritated as a cat can. "I know it's late sweetheart. I've been really busy this morning . Please forgive me." The feline ignored him and jumped up onto the sofa. "Please forgive me Eiikichi. I'll make it up to you, how about that?" Yusuke rolled his eyes and Kurama laughed as the ginger continued to beg his cat for mercy. Kuwabara would never change, not really. Perhaps that was for the best.
