Hiei And Kurama's Adventures Chapter 18: It's… Chapter Eighteen.

By the wonderful, brilliant, beautiful, talented, genius Otaku Hoshi!! (ok, all those compliments to myself were jokes.)

Maybe.

Kurama opened his eyes to the sight of his room. He smiled. How nice it was to finally be back home… And how nice it was for Hiei and him not to be so crowded. He smiled down at the small fire demon. Apparently Hiei was no longer interested in waking up before the sun rose, for he was still soundly sleeping. Kurama gingerly tapped the small koorime's nose. "Hn…" Hiei groaned and rolled over, away from Kurama. Kurama giggled at Hiei's reaction.

"Wake up, my love…" Kurama whispered very softly into Hiei's ear. "The sun is shining bright."

"Who cares…" Hiei said, flopping over. Kurama attempted to whisper more words into Hiei's ear, but Hiei pulled a pillow over his own head.

Kurama finally decided it was useless and gave up. He then lay back down himself. Might as well… "Hiei?" Kurama said, more loudly than he had been talking earlier.

"Hn?" Hiei pulled his head out from the pillow and looked at the redheaded fox.

"How much longer are you going to stay in Ningenkai, anyway?" Kurama questioned. He didn't really know why he asked it, he just needed to know.

"Do you really want me gone that bad?" Hiei smirked, while playfully waving his finger with the ring Kurama had given him around.

"Of course not, Koibito… I wanted to know how much longer I would have the pleasure of keeping you." Kurama giggled, and lie down on Hiei's bare chest.

"You will have that pleasure from now on. I am not returning to the Makai." Kurama wasn't sure he heard him right.

"You what…?" Kurama said unsurely, but with a hint of excitement in his tone.

"I am not returning to the Makai." Hiei said once again.

"Really?" Kurama said again, this time raising his head and bringing it very close to Hiei's face.

"Why do you think I would lie about something like that?" Hiei said, inching as close to Kurama's face as he could get without actually touching it, for Kurama did that for him. The next thing Hiei knew, Kurama's tongue had slipped into his mouth and was exploring Hiei's mouth. Hiei gladly returned the kiss, which caused Kurama to give a little cry of pleasure.

"We could get our own apartment if you are serious about staying in the Ningenkai with me." Kurama cooed, running circles around Hiei's abs.

"Who said anything about staying with you, you crazy fox?" Hiei chuckled at Kurama's confused expression. "Fool. Who else would I stay in the Ningenkai for?"

"Hiei!" Kurama randomly cried out, and practically jumped on him. "Aishiteru…" Kurama whispered as he placed a soft kiss on Hiei's cheek.

"Hn." Hiei playfully pushed Kurama off of him and he stood up. "And you better realize that if I am going to live with you that I am going to have some rules." Hiei crossed his arms.

"I suppose you want the whole house to be black?" Kurama laughed.

"I wasn't thinking that at all, fox…" Hiei leaned closer to Kurama, about to kiss him…

"Hey Shu-" Little Shuichi had just burst into Kurama's room, which had happened to be unlocked. "EEEWWW!" Shuichi shouted. Kurama's face turned a brilliant shade of scarlet.

Oh lords! He saw Hiei about to kiss me! Kurama screamed in his mind.

"I SEE HIEI'S UNDERWEAR!!" Shuichi laughed, and he slammed the door a gain. Kurama was in a state of shock, but quickly recovered into a fit of laughter.

"What's so funny, fox?" Hiei growled, "I don't see what's so funny about that little boy's comment."

"It's just… I was so… Worried… He would tell Hiroshi-sama I was a pervert or fag… Or something… It was just… Your…" Kurama started laughing all over again.

"It's really not very funny, I was being serious." Hiei hissed.

"I know… I'm not laughing at you, Hiei." Kurama smiled, now over his laughing fit. "I was laughing at my own shock, and my brother's naiveté."

"Hn. Well I guess that will do." Hiei then pulled on some fuzzy navy blue pajamas. "I'll see you downstairs." Hiei said as he opened the door and went out of Kurama's room. Kurama sighed as he too got out of bed and into some pajamas.

"Ohayo, Kaasan." Kurama said and walked to his mother to kiss her.

"Ohayo, Shuichi-kun." Shiori smiled. Kurama then walked to the table to join Hiei.

"Hiei tells me that Shuichi walked into your room while you were having a very private discussion." Shiori said sternly to Kurama. Kurama gulped, afraid of what Hiei may have told her. "He tells me that he wants Shuichi to stay out of your room at all times, unless he has specific permission from you to be in there."

"Well…" Kurama started.

"And here is my suggestion: Lock the door when you are in one of those discussions." Shiori said with a wink.

"Thank you Kaasan, you are right." Kurama sighed. Is it just me, or does she know more about Hiei and I than she has told me she knows?

"Of course I'm right!" Shiori said with a wink.

***Kurama had decided to take Hiei to look at some apartments and houses just so Hiei could get the idea of what living in Ningenkai might be like on their own. And also to see what kind of house Hiei would prefer. They went to many places, but only once appealed to the small fire demon…

"When I get enough money Hiei, we will get this house if it hasn't sold yet." Kurama said.

"Hn."

"Remember though, once we get it, there's no turning back." Kurama winked. "So you better think about it first."

"Hn. Let's just get home, the sun is setting." Hiei said. Kurama sighed. He knew Hiei really would give everything serious thought, it was just the kind of thing Hiei would do.

*** "So, where did you two go?" Shiori asked when they returned back home.

"Nowhere." Kurama said, and began to run upstairs to his room with Hiei.

"Hold on, Shuichi." Shiori called to her son.

"Yes, Kaasan?" Kurama stopped in his tracks, which caused Hiei to knock into him, which caused Kurama to loose his balance and fall down the stairs, which caused Hiei to fall with him. They ended up a heap at the bottom of the stairs, Hiei sitting right on top of Kurama's crotch area. Hiei immediately jumped off, and Kurama immediately started groaning. "My back…" Kurama moaned.

"Shuichi!" Shiori cried, "Are you alright?" Kurama sat up slowly.

"I'll be fine…"

"Be careful, the both of you!" Shiori said sternly to both Hiei and Kurama.

"We will, Kaasan, we promise. Now, what was it you wanted to tell me?" Kurama stood up, rubbing his back a bit.

"I think you two and I need to have a little chat." Shiori said calmly. Kurama's whole face turned red. His face felt so hot he forgot his back was hurting.

"Can that wait till tomorrow?" Kurama said slowly.

"I want to talk about it now, seeing as Little Shuichi and Hiroshi-san are out on a father/ son dinner." She began to walk towards the sofa, and Kurama reluctantly followed. Hiei followed Kurama. "I want you to know, Shuichi, that no matter what, I will always love you. No matter what you are, who you are, or what you become. I may be disappointed for a while, but I will always love you and accept you for who you are. You are my only true son. Now, is there something you want to tell me about Hiei and yourself?"

"Uhh… Not really, why?" Kurama laughed uncomfortably. Hopefully she won't go any farther…

"Then is there something you want to tell me about you and Hiei kissing each other a few months ago?" Kurama didn't know how to answer, and he did not. "Well, I know it wasn't my imagination. Would you like me to tell you how I saw it?" Kurama slowly nodded. Hiei was just very still, and very silent. "Well, Shuichi and Hiroshi were out on a father/ son trip. It seems like they do that very often, doesn't it? Well, anyway, I was home from work and walking to the house. Since the lights were on inside, I peeked through the window, and I saw you, Shuichi, with arms around Hiei, and you were definitely kissing each other in a way that two people who were just 'friends' would not. And Hiei was kissing you back. I waited a few moments for you two to stop and head upstairs, then I came in. I didn't want to talk to you about it right away, because I needed to let it sink in for a while. But now I want to talk to you, and I need to lay out some new rules, and I need to hear an explanation, and this time I want the whole story, from beginning to end." She looked Kurama in the eyes, and then at Hiei. Neither one spoke, nor looked her back in the eyes. "Shuichi, please say something. I will tell you this: I will not tell anything to my husband or your stepbrother, you needn't worry about that."

"Well…" Kurama started, "I met Hiei a long time ago, at school. He was living with his adoptive mother at the time." Already lying… Gomen, Kaasan, I can't tell you the full truth. "We talked, and became friends. I never asked him over, since he was always busy with his mother, and she didn't like him going anywhere. Right Hiei?" Kurama elbowed Hiei as if to tell him to say something.

"Hn… Right." Hiei said with absolutely no emotion in his voice whatsoever.

"But then, the heart attack happened, and Hiei's mother died. He had no known relatives, and he didn't have any friends other than me, which is when you let him stay with us…"

"But where does your romance with Hiei come in?" Shiori said, keeping her voice level, calm, caring yet firm.

"Well, let me backtrack. Before his mother died, well, sometimes I would go places with Hiei just so he could get out and do something other than be with his mother. You know, teenagers need to be away from their parents once in a while. Well, the discussion of homosexuality came up between us somehow, I don't remember exactly. I found out Hiei was gay, and I had never been interested in women, myself… So I assumed I was probably gay too. Hiei and I went out a few times, and eventually got started in a romantic relation. I fell in love with him, and he fell in love with me, regardless of sex, and knowing that Hiei's mother would never accept it, and I assumed you and Hiroshi-san wouldn't, either. About a year after this relation had started, Hiei moved in with us."

"So you have been in a relationship for over a year now?" Shiori said, wanting to get everything straight.

"Yes." Kurama answered.

"And exactly how far and physical has this relationship gotten?" Shiori said, eyeing the two identical rings on their fingers.

"Kaasan, before I answer that question, can I talk to you about this seriously and with all my heart?" Kurama asked earnestly.

"Yes, I am hoping you will."

"Well," Kurama started, "Our love for each other is very high, and we are truly in love. But we have never had sex. At least, not yet." Kurama said, clutching Hiei's hand very tightly.

"I see…" Shiori said slowly. "Where were you two today? Just… on a date?"

"No, actually, we were…" Kurama found it hard to tell his mother this, "Looking for a place were we could live, since I am now old enough to live on my own, and with Hiei." This news brought silence for a few minutes.

"Well… I suppose that you may be wondering why I wanted to talk about this now, and what my new rules are." Kurama nodded slowly. "I wanted to talk about it because Little Shuichi walked in on you two this morning. I don't know what you were talking about, what you were doing, and quite frankly I don't want to. But I do know that it couldn't be anything too serious, or Shuichi would have come running to Hiroshi-san and me about it. But I want you to know that just because you two love each other so much and find it very acceptable, this kind of a relation would greatly offend some people. My rules, I hope, will not be too hard to follow," Shiori smiled, "Simply put, I want you two to be extremely careful about how intimate you two get around people, and make sure you do not have any physical contact, which includes holding hands," Shiori pointed at Kurama's hand, which was still firmly grasping Hiei's, "around other people. Don't talk about it with anyone in the family, and I hope to God that no one knows. Does anyone?"

"Only Shirami-chan." Kurama said. Shiori was very surprised.

"Shirami-chan? Why would she know of such a thing?" Shiori asked.

"Because she really liked Hiei, and it was only right for her to know." Kurama told her honestly.

"All right Shuichi, I guess I can accept that, but no one else shall know of all this, you hear?" Shiori said very seriously.

"Yes, I understand." Kurama said, bowing his head a bit.

"And you too, Hiei, you shall not tell anyone."

"Hn. Why would I?" Hiei said bitterly.

"I don't know, I am just telling you that you will not tell anyone about this." Kurama and Hiei nodded. "Well, run along to your room Hiei, Shuichi, that was where you two were headed, right?" Shiori smiled. Kurama nodded again. "Well, goodnight." Kurama and Hiei stood up and began to leave. "And remember, I still love you." Shiori said kindly.

"I know, Kaasan. I love you too." Kurama said happily, and he kissed her on the forehead and then headed upstairs with his beloved Hiei.

Preview Music: Hn. This is Hiei, who else would it be. You will have to see what happens in the next episode of Yu*Yu*Hakusho by watching and not reading this dumb preview that Otaku Hoshi can't think of right now. Run along all you ningen fools…

Wow, that was hard to write XD WRITERS BLOCK, I TELL YOU!! Ok, well… All I want to say right now is that I made a Website for my original manga. The address is: http://otakuhoshi.tripod.com. I beg you to go there, look around and really read the stuff on it, then sign the guestbook. I BEG YOU!!! Go to every section!! READ!!! And yes, I did draw all of those drawings u.u

Thank you ostrich for reviewing on mm.org since you can't review on ff.net anymore ^_^

And my internet will not connect at all, and my mother is too lazy to fix it, so you all probably will not see this chapter for a while. But it's May eighth… 2004 XD Just in case its 2005 by the time I get it up, which I doubt. But I can't connect so I can't update or go on animechains.net. Foo. (My username there is OtakuHoshi for those of you who have an account there!! PM me!!) I'm always on the Yu Yu Hakusho or Gravitation section. There is where you shall find my posts.

Anyway, this is going off topic. One last thing then I'm getting off and I'm going to go plop myself down somewhere and wait for Inu-Yasha to come on. I have decided to start working on the comic of Hiei And Kurama's Adventures again!! YAY!! Though all of you fanfiction readers can't read my comic unless you are a real life friend of mine… But yeah, I'm gonna start working on it again. And holy Nittle Grasper, my drawings have improved like 100000 times since I made that comic. I read it today after about half a year, and the drawings SUCKED even more than I remember. Freaky… But I still love the comic, it's a classic to me ^___^ Bye-chu!
