Chp. 3A Night at the Movies

`They're all against me, I just know it.' Yuske thought as he and the gang walked down the street towards his house, after they had just finished an assignment, and since he had been acting so glad to be done with it, they had been teasing him about just wanting to get back to see Kagome.

"There's nothing to be ashamed of Urameshi, if you like the girl, you just like the girl." Kuabawra said loudly standing behind him.

"WILL YOU JUST SHUT UP ALREADY? I DON'T LIKE HER!" Yuske yelled as they finally got on his nerves.

"Well then I guess you won't be jealous if she gets a boyfriend." Hiei said calmly.

"What do you mean boyfriend? What have you heard? Have you seen her with some guy? Do I know him?"

"Why don't you look for yourself and see if you know him?" Kurama said this time as he pointed with his eyes to look up ahead.

Looking to where Kurama had inclined, Yuske saw Kagome talking to some guy, and it was quite obvious that she was flirting.

Completely forgetting about the guys' taunting, he quickly decided to break the little couple up. "OI, KAGOME! WHO THE HELL IS THAT!" he yelled angrily, and he watched in satisfaction as both Kagome and the guy looked his way. Kagome looked annoyed and the guy's eyes widened in fear. The guy turned towards Kagome, said a swift goodbye, and began to walk away hastily; with Kagome, desperately trying to call him back, but the guy was gone.

"You sure broke that up fast." Kuabawra said in a deadpan voice.

"Yes I did." Yuske said proudly, oblivious to the fuming Kagome, running towards him with fire in her eyes.

"YOU BASTARD!" Kagome screamed as she punched Yuske in his jaw, sending him crashing into the ground, where, she immediately began to stomp on him.

"DO...YOU...KNOW...HOW...HARD...IT...IS ...TO...GET...A...DATE...WITH...YOU...CONSTANTLY...HOUNDING.. .ME!" she yelled, stomping on him with every word. And she would have continued if Kurama hadn't of pulled her off him.

"Do you feel better now?" he asked calmly.

Kicking Yuske once more for good measure, she shook her head yeah.

"I think you killed him." Kuabawra said as he poked Yuske in the head, and Hiei nudged him with his foot.

Ignoring him, Kagome turned her back on the boys as she thought over her plans. `Now how am I suppose to make Colin jealous if the last guy not afraid to go out with me was just scared away?' she thought. `What am I talking about; here are four guys right under my nose. And they owe me. Big time. Turning around she gave all the boys a scrutinizing look as they watched Kuabawra poke the dead Yuske.

Looking to Yuske she had the urge to hit him again so she decided that she wouldn't use him. She nearly laughed aloud when she looked to Kuabawra for consideration. `No guy would be jealous of him. I need someone cute.' She didn't look at Hiei for that type of job. So there was only one person left.

"Kurama." She said suddenly in a nice, sickly sweet voice, making the remaining living boys look at her with suspicious expressions, or in Kurama's case, slightly nervous.

"Yes?" he asked.

"We're friends right?" she asked in that same voice, accompanied now by a big smile.

"I suppose so."

"And friends do favors for each other right?" she asked as she was now giving an innocent look

"It depends on what the favor is."

"Nothing too serious, no one will get hurt or nothing." She said as she began to rock back and forth on the balls of her feet.

"Well then maybe that favor can be done...for a friend."

"Oh great so you'll do it. The favor is for this Saturday. Meet me at my apartment at 7:00. Don't be late." She said, all sweetness gone from her voice.

"Umm?" Kurama tried to say, but Kagome was gone. "What just happened?" he asked turning towards Hiei.

"You're taking her out on a date Saturday at 7:00."

"What?" Yuske suddenly asked as he was rejuvenated.

"And he lives." Hiei said more to himself than the rest.

* *;

`I don't want to be here.' Kurama thought to himself as he climbed the steps to Kagome's apartment.

`I should tell her no.'

`And she'll kick your ass` Youko said.

`I could take her'

`I don't know about that. For a small girl. She's pretty strong. `

`Yeah but if I go through with it. Yuske's going to be mad.'

`Are you scared of him or something? `

`No, it's just, something's wrong with that boy.'

`We're here. Now be a good boy and don't do anything I wouldn't do. ` Youko said giving Kurama some advice.

`What wouldn't you do?' Kurama thought as he knocked on Kagome's door.

Whatever Youko was going to say, because he was, became stuck in his throat when the door opened and their eyes landed on Kagome.

Kagome wore a short, black, bare shoulder dress, with open toe black strap heels. She had her hair down, and wore light makeup, and she smelled of jasmine.

Kurama blushed at the sight of her as indecent thoughts went through his head, and he couldn't tell if they were from Youko or himself.

"Hi Kurama. Now I need your honest opinion, if you saw me wearing this...would you choke on your tongue?" Kagome asked as she posed.

Seeing as he was choking on his tongue, Kurama just turned his head away and shook his head yeah.

"Good." She said smiling. "I'll just grab my purse and we can go." She said before turning around and revealing to Kurama that her back was out.

"Umm...Kagome. Where is it that we are going?"

"Oh yeah. Well we are going to the movies. Or better yet, you're taking me to the movies." She said smiling as she locked her door, and latched herself onto Kurama's arm.

* *;

"Yeah, you better keep those hands where I can see them Fox boy." Yuske threatened silently from the safety of the bushes across the street, as Kurama and Kagome began to leave her apartment.

As he got up to follow the couple, a voice suddenly spoke up.

"What are you doing?" Hiei asked, suddenly appearing in front of him, making Yuske fall on his backside from fright.

Trying to look innocent Yuske shrugged as he got up off the ground. "Nothing, just decided to take a walk is all."

"What type of walk involves crouching in bushes?"

"...a nature walk."

"Really?" Hiei asked with one raised eyebrow. "Looks to me like you're stalking Kagome on her date with the fox."

"What! No, please...give me a...they're getting away." Yuske seeing Kagome and Kurama round a corner hurriedly exited the bushes and crept swiftly after them.

"Why are you going through so much trouble over a girl you have no attraction too or infatuation with?" Hiei asked Yuske as he appeared by the corner Yuske was currently hiding behind.

"I never said I wasn't attracted to her, and maybe I like her a little. Just a little." Yuske told him quietly rounding the corner only to run into a smug looking Kuabawra.

"About time you admitted it Urame...!" Kuabawra began to blurt out, only to have his mouth covered and his body hauled out of view of the couple.

* *;

"Did you hear something Kurama?" Kagome asked worriedly as they stopped and looked around them.

"Yes, but I do believe it was just an animal." Kurama told her as he looked back to where the boys were hiding.

`Looks like we have company.' Kurama said inside his head.

`Yes, it would seem Yuske doesn't trust us`. Youko replied with mock hurt.

`He knows I would never do anything to hurt anyone.'

`Why don't we give him a show? ` Youko suggested with a hint of Kitsune mischief.

`I'll do no such thing.' Kurama refused although he was tempted.

`Oh come on, why not? Live a little, make him jealous and have fun at it. He was the one who didn't trust you. Just let off some of that Kitsune charm. `

Kurama was silent.

`Alright my boy. Let's have a little fun.` Youko said as Kurama's eyes took on a gold reflection.

"Yes, I think it was just an animal." Kurama told her soothingly as he gazed down at her.

"Are you sure that all it was? It kind of sounded human...to...me." Kagome faded off as she looked up into Kurama's eyes.

`Yes just give off a little charming through the eyes. It gets them every time. `

Shaking her head to clear the fogginess away, Kagome smiled up at him. "Wow Kurama, you eyes are real pretty in the dark. They're, gold...they seem familiar." Kagome said look wistfully up at him for a second before walking on. Leaving Kurama stunned.

`She resisted the eyes. No one resists the eyes! No ones ever resisted the eyes since that demon miko I seduced long ago in the forest. It took all my charm and a little force to get what I wanted. Now that I think about it...she looks a lot like...'

"Come on Kurama, we're going to be late!" Kagome yelled from up the road as she stood there with her hands on her hips.

"Coming Kagome!" Kurama yelled back as he began to head her way. `What were you about to say Youko?' Kurama inquired the silent fox demon.

`Huh? Oh...um...nothing. We better hurry up before Yuske catches up to us. `

`Right.'

* *;

"Did you see that? What the hell was he trying to do?" Yuske yelled in an outrage.

"He's letting the fox out." Hiei said simply, becoming slightly interested in the nights events.

"What do you mean `letting the fox out'? Kuabawra asked curiously, but Hiei had gone by the time he finished asking, and Yuske could already be seen following the couple again.

"Hey wait up for me."

* *;

`There's Colin.' Kagome thought as she and Kurama (with Hiei and Yuske close behind)made her way down the hall of the dark theater, to sit a couple of rows in front of Colin and his friends. She was glad the movie was supposed to be scary, because what better way to make a guy jealous than to let you clutch and snuggle up close to some other guy, and if the other guy is cute it works even better.

`This should prove interesting.' Hiei thought as he and Yuske sat a few rows behind the boy Colin. `The girl is using Kurama to make that human boy jealous, Kurama is using Kagome to make Yuske mad and jealousy, and the boy is clueless to all of them.' Hiei thought, not realizing he had used Kagome's name instead of calling her girl.

"Hey guys I got some snacks and drin..." Kuabawra began but again was brought down forcefully by both Yuske and Hiei (who didn't want the entertainment to stop just yet.)

* *;

"Did you hear something Kurama?" Kagome asked as she looked back at the rows behind them.

"No, I think it was another movie nearby."

"Maybe...oh look the movie's starting." She exclaimed as the last of the previews ended and she settled in to watch.

* *;

`Look at her down there, pretending to be so scared. She's not scared she's faking it, just to get close to Kurama. What does she see in him anyway?' Yuske thought moodily as he munched on popcorn and glared at the back of the couples head.

Hiei sat boredly watching the screen. His entertainment wasn't very entertaining. `Try to kiss her already.' He thought angrily to Kurama, `or at least made the boy mad.'

Looking down at he couple, he sat up straighter as he saw Kurama turned his head towards him, where golden eyes could be seen illuminated by the projector lights.

"About time." He said aloud, making Yuske and Kuabawra looked at him.

"About time for what?" Yuske inquired boredly. But when Hiei didn't answer he grew angry and asked again, but Hiei still didn't answer. Looking down at the couple then back at Hiei, Yuske became even angrier. "What's he up to?"

* *;

`Wow I never noticed how good Kurama smelled.' Kagome thought as she became enchanted by his scent. Turning towards him, she instantly found herself lost in his amber eyes.

Cupping her face gently with his hand Kurama tilted Kagome's head up, gazed into her eyes and brought his lips crashing down onto hers.

`Why do his eyes feel so familiar...I can just kiss him right now. No ones stopping me. So...why does this feel so wrong?' Kagome thought as she leant in to Kurama's kiss.

`She seems to be enjoying herself ` Youko commented as Kagome's hand came up to lace itself in his silky, red, locks.

Kagome didn't know what came over her, for all of a sudden, the heat she was feeling in her belly suddenly spread to cover every inch of her body, and it was screaming for more. Lacing her fingers into his hair, Kagome pulled him down harder onto her lips.

`More'

Grabbing a fistful of his hair, she yanked his lips form hers, and ignoring the startled look on his face, she swung her leg over and straddled his lap.

`More'

`Turn the charm off Youko, you used too much!' Kurama yelled inside his head.

`I can't! She's out of control! This has never happened before! Look at her eyes! Help me Kurama! I'm scared!' Youko yelled back as they both stared up frighteningly at Kagome.

`What's wrong with me? Why am I acting like this? I'm not attracted to Kurama this way. But those eyes. Those damn eyes. I hate them but I love them.' she thought, ignoring the tingling feeling her ears, mouth, and fingers were feeling, as she gripped Kurama's hair in her hand and forcefully brought him into a passionate kiss, that was just a little bit angry.

`Ow my hair.' Kurama thought far back in the back of his mind, under all the horror of the situation.

`Forget the hair; don't you feel those nails in the back of your heads? Or what about the spirit power licking the back of your neck?'

`Oh god...Yuske.'

`Damn right Yuske, kind of forgot all about him didn't you?'

`...I bet Hiei is loving this.'

* *;

"Bet your ass I am." Hiei whispered aloud from his position on the balcony, where he moved to when Yuske started to get really angry.

Down below he could see Kagome mauling Kurama, Yuske seething with so much anger his aura was flaring out wildly, the boy Colin, who Kagome was trying to make jealous, unconscious, by getting hit by an misguided projectile Yuske was trying to throw at Kurama, and Kuabawra sitting there watching the movie like nothing was happening.

Total chaos. True entertainment.

* *;

The attack session Kagome was putting on Kurama suddenly ended as Kagome cell phone rang. Snapping out of her crazed state Kagome jumped off Kurama and back into her seat like nothing happened as she answered her phone.

Kurama in the mean time slumped exhaustedly into his seat.

"Hello?" Kagome asked a little breathlessly.

"Oh hi Uncle Enma...yeah I know, I'm at the movies...with a friend...yeah...Kurama...one of Yuske's friends...Urameshi...what, why...um, okay then...if you say so...but he's not really that...okay...I know...love you too...okay...bye." as Kagome hung up the phone she turned to Kurama with a bewildered frown on his face.

"Um, Kurama I have to go...um...I guess I'll see you around." She told him before grabbing her purse and getting up to leave.

On her way out she was too preoccupied with her thoughts too notice Hiei staring down at her from the balcony, too preoccupied to notice Colin unconscious in the aisle, too preoccupied to notice that all the people had left the room, and too preoccupied to feel Yuske's heated glare on her as she left.

She only wanted to know why her Uncle Enma had....

STAMP!

`I'm bored.'

STAMP!

`I want somebody to talk.'

STAMP STAMP!

`Someone please come interrupt me, please.'

STAMP!

`I'd rather Yuske come in and call me a toddler if only some will talk to me.'

STAMP!

`I'm so bored.'

STAMP!

"Prince Koenma sir!" Ogre yelled as he burst through the door.

"OGRE, YOU BIG BLUE DOPE! WHAT HAVE I TOLD YOU ABOUT INTERRUPTING ME WHEN I'M WORKING?" Koenma yelled waving a small fist at the larger person.

"But you have a call sir." Ogre said quietly, fearing the wrath of his miniature boss.

"I DO NOT TAKE CALLS DURING WORKING HOURS!"

"But it's King Enma." Ogre whispered pathetically.

"WHY DIDN'T YOU SAY SO IN THE FIRST PLACE!" Koenma yelled before calming down and picking up the phone.

"Hello...oh hello dad...yes what about them...why...I'm sorry sir...what's her name again...Kagome Higurashi...what so speci...yes sir...I will but he doesn't liste...yes sir...as soon as possible...okay...good-bye." Hanging up the phone Koenma turned to Ogre.

"Ogre." Koenma said quietly a frown etched across his face.

"Yes, Koenma sir?"

"Get Botan in here pronto," he said seriously.

"Yes sir."

With ogre gone Koenma returned to his stamping.

`I've got to be careful about what I wish for.'

STAMP!
