Chapter 16: Sometimes Breaks Aren't That Fun…



A month and a half has past and Kuwabara and you are improving, though your nightmare hadn’t stopped. So every night you would end up sleeping in Kuwabara’s room. At first, you both felt weird, but after a while, you both got more comfortable and you had even woken up to find Kuwabara’s arm wrapped around your waist and hugging you close to him. Eikichi would be snuggled up under your chin and purring. You felt safe and secure like that.



Kurama’s training was fierce. However, you had gotten stronger and you were better at controlling your telepathy powers, which made you happy. Kuwabara would still not fight you in the three on three battles; so, he would be beaten pretty badly. Though he was forming immunity to pain and was healing faster because of the fights, it seemed. Your normal routine would be get up early in the morning, eat breakfast. Train until lunchtime; break for lunch. Work on your techniques and then battle until dinner. Go inside for dinner and then take a shower and crash in Kuwabara’s room. 



However, on this particular morning, you decided you needed to do something different. All work and no play makes a girl go crazy. You woke up to the nice warm embrace of Kuwabara, who was still sleeping. Eikichi slowly got up and stretched. You watched with amusement as the little kitten began to bathe herself. After that, she proceeded to look around to see what could be ‘fun’ to do. She noticed one of Kuwabara’s socks was hanging off his feet. You couldn’t help but snicker as you watched the kitten crouch low and slowly ‘stalk’ her prey. 



You couldn’t help but giggle, which caused Kuwabara to stir from his sleep a bit. That was the signal. She grabbed a hold onto Kuwabara’s entire foot with her claws and her teeth nibbling where his big toe was. All Kuwabara knew was he felt a lot of sharp small points all over his left foot. He jumped with a yell and rolled off the bed. Eikichi was able to let go in time to watch her poor master land hard on the floor. She tilted her head to the side and meowed in wonderment. It looked like she was trying to figure out where her ‘prey’ went and why her master fell on the floor. 



You crawled over to the end of the bed, slowly calming down and peaked over the edge. A fit of chuckles escaped your lips as you found Kuwabara wrapped in his blanket and his butt in the air as his face was planted on the ground. It was the funniest sight you had ever seen. 



“Good morning Kuwa-chan…why are you on the floor?” you asked, trying to sound innocent; but failing miserable.



“You know why!”



“Awww…come on Kuwa-chan! I thought it was cute! Eikichi playing with your foot and all; she wants to train too it seems.”



“You’re not the one on the ground now; aren’t you? Of course YOU’D think it was cute. And no she isn’t training; she’s bored…stop laughing already (YAFN)-chan!!” Kuwabara growled, trying to pull free from the sheets that kept him bound; however, his struggling only made it worst as he was wrapped more in the sheets. 



He was never really a morning person. He was always grumpy until he got his coffee; black. Sometimes you would need some coffee yourself; however, mostly you were able to survive without it. Whenever you drank coffee, you would have it with half & half and two spoon full of sugar. Kurama was the weird one of the group and would have some type of tea. It changed every morning. You smiled down at him.



“Well, I’ll meet you downstairs!” you say hopping out of bed on the other side, trying to avoid the cranky Kuwabara. 



You grab your Scooby-Doo blanket and Koga. You start towards the door to head out of his room; to go back into your room to shower and get dressed.



“Hey!! Don’t leave me like this!” Kuwabara shouted.



You were already half out the door and stuck your head into the room with a laugh.



“Think of it as another part of training.” You say before laughing out of his room.



You hear him say something else; but it was muffled by the door. As you were about to head towards your room, you saw Kurama walking towards you. He was wearing some beat up old jeans, yet still nice and a muscle shirt. 



“Good morning, Kura-chan.” You say, yawning.



Kurama chuckled. 



“Good morning to you too, though it seems you are not really awake yet.”



“Nope, but then again, I’m never really all here to begin with.” You say laughing.



Kurama only shakes his head and smiles.



-Grrr….---



(Yoko….)



-What?! She’s been sleeping in Kuwabara’s room every single night since they’ve arrived!—



(Are you implying they are doing something?)



--Well, I can’t believe that any guy would not try to do something with a gorgeous creature like (YFN)!-



(So you’re implying that she’s a whore?)



-…no-



(Then how can anything be going on in there? She is respectable and so is Kuwabara. You know this; you’re just mad that she didn’t come in our room.)



-If she wants someone who could REALLY protect her; she should be with me, with us!-



“Ummm…Kurama?”



Kurama had done it again. He had his eyes changing colors and had a far off look on his face. He had been through this along with many other issues such as this. For the past month and a half, Yoko wouldn't give up on making you his; yet at the same time; Kurama wouldn't give up on helping you hook up with Kuwabara and convincing Yoko that you were a sister.



Kurama was able to control the fox demon somewhat; however, there was one time during the training when Yoko sort of came out from inside and fought against Kuwabara; over doing it. It was obvious that something was wrong with Kurama. He looked the same, however, his eyes were golden. It was only for five minutes; but it was still long enough to hurt Kuwabara pretty badly. By the time, Kurama took back control; he found Kuwabara with deep cuts all over. They had stopped the training for the rest of the day and you were by Kuwabara’s side trying to tend to his wounds; while Kurama scolded Yoko.



“I’m sorry (YAFN). It seems Yoko still can’t get over the fact you were in Kuwabara’s room this early in the morning.”



“Yes, well…” you said scratching the back of your head and your face turning slightly red, “I keep getting that dream and Kuwa-chan helps me…that’s all really.” You say with a reassuring smile.



Kurama frowns that the information.



“So your nightmares have grown worse (YAFN)-chan?”



You blink. Kurama started to call you that after a few weeks into training. So you started calling him Kura-chan to tease him. Kuwabara felt left out and decided to call you (YAFN)-chan. It wasn’t long after that you started to call Kuwabara, Kuwa-chan; which made him happy, which made you happy.



“Yes. It’s very frightening…I mean…I’m not scared of dying…that’s not what’s scary about the dream, well it is but it’s not the scariest thing.” You say before looking down a bit ashamed that you were letting a dream affect you so much. “But…but the way Yusuke screams, and then Kuwabara…and recently I’ve been hearing your voice and even Hiei’s…I don’t want to hear you guys scream like that EVER….” You say looking back up at Kurama with sad eyes.



-Even in her dreams she is caring…why don’t you take her now!-



(Shut up)





Kurama pulls you into a warm embrace, which shocks you a bit. He’s been trying to avoid you in any ‘touching’ way since the incident with Yoko ‘coming’ out and hurting Kuwabara. You blinked and looked up at him while he looked down at you.



“Don’t worry. Nothing will happen to you; and you’ll never hear any of us scream that way.” He says with his charming smile.



You couldn’t help but blush at it, but smiled back.



“Thanks Kura-chan. You’re like the brother I never had…other then Yusuke that is.” You say with a laugh.



Kurama laughed as well.



“Hopefully I’m the mature one.”



“Totally.” You answer.



The two of you laughed for a moment, before Kurama let you go. You smiled at him and gave him a small wave.



“See ya downstairs!” you say walking to your room.



You turned and smiled a happy smile at him.



“Thanks again.”



“Anytime.” He said, before you closed the door behind you.









When you got downstairs, Kuwabara had just finished making pancakes and placing a huge pile on the table. Kuwabara still wearing his black boxers and his black socks; although, they were pulled all the way up. He also had on his white wife beater shirt. You were wearing a sleeveless dark blue tie dyed shirt that was dyed with all different kinds of blues. You were also wearing black shorts. You tied your hair up in a high ponytail. You walked into the kitchen and went to the cabinet that had the dishes in it. You began to set up the table, while Kurama got out the drinks and Kuwabara set up the food to be plated. 



After the table was set, you all sat at your spot at the table. Kuwabara sat at one end; Kurama at the other and you sat on the side that was between the two. As you started to butter your pancakes, you started to think.



‘Man, we’ve been training non-stop….I know practice makes perfect, but as Jack said ‘All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy’…or something like that. We gotta do something fun…just me and the guys…but what?” you think as you eat without really noticing that you were eating.



You continued to think of fun things to do when something came to mind. As the thought began to roll, around in your head a grin crossed your face, slowly turning into an evil looking grin that brought a twinkle evil glint to your eyes. Kuwabara noticed your look and raised an eyebrow.



“Ummm…(YAFN)-chan? You’re freaking me out with that look.” He said making a ‘freaked out’ face.



“Are you ok?” Kurama asked, not really finding that look settling at all. 



You look at them, still having that look.



“I was just thinking…”



“That can’t be good…” Kuwabara said with a joking grin.



You give him a playful glare and stick your tongue out at him before continuing your thought.



“Like I said…I was just thinking, that we’ve been training too much. Both Kuwa-chan and I have greatly improved and I know that I deserve to do something fun. What do you say Kura-chan? Why not take the day off and just do something fun?” you ask now giving Kurama your infamous ‘puppy dog’ look. 



You had found that it would work on almost anyone. You wanted to use it on Hiei the next time you see him, thinking that if it could work on him; then it could work on anyone. However, you know that it was both Kurama and Kuwabara’s weakness; and they couldn’t resist it; or you. 



“Well…” Kurama started, “what did you have in mind?” he asked curious of what you would think as ‘fun’.



“And nothing ‘girly’.” Kuwabara said giving you a serious look.



You pouted at him.



“You know me better then that Kuwa-chan! When do I ever pick ‘girly’ stuff?”



“Well, there was that time you dragged me to that chick flick; and then there was that time you dragged me shopping so you could use me as your mule…and then…” he started, counting each time on his fingers.



“Ok…fine, I have SOME ‘girl’ tendencies…but I got something really good in mind!” you say. “I think we should go out to dinner at a karaoke bar! I’ve never really gone to one…not that I remember.” You say, adding the last part to keep up with your ‘amnesia’ story.



You’ve gotten better at keeping your story straight. It was getting so good that you were starting to believe it was true. 



The boys seemed to think about it for a moment.



“Well…I know of one place around here in the makai; but its too dangerous, especially since you two are humans…” Kurama said, trying to think of another place possibly back in the human realm.



“Aww, come on Kura-chan!” you pout, “It will be fun and we can handle ourselves if anything bad happens; which it won’t!” You say with another ‘puppy-dog’ pout/look.



This one being uber cute to where Kuwabara felt like he wanted to hug you.



Kurama sighed.



“Fine…we’ll go around 8 o’clock since it shouldn’t be too crowded. Usually it gets busy around 10 o’clock and usually more dangerous because they get drunk around then.”



You jumped out of your seat and danced around the room, making Kurama and Kuwabara both smile but sweatdrop at your silliness. You hadn’t changed your humor nor stopped being silly even in training and both of the guys were fine with that. However, you did make it hard sometime to train with your silliness.



“One problem.” Kuwabara said, which stopped you in mid dance.



“What’s that?” you asked.



‘Well…I have nothing to wear…I went to one back home but it was full of old people and middle schoolers from other schools.” He said.



You stood there in thought.



“Actually…what DO you wear to a karaoke bar?” 



The both of you turn and look at Kurama who blinked.



“I don’t know.”



“But you said there’s one here in the makai!” you said blinking at him.



“Yoko use to go there and I heard that it’s still open…and Yoko dressed…well, how to put this…” Kurama said, scratching the back of his head trying to think of a ‘delicate’ work to say ‘to get laid’. 



You blink at him before shrugging your shoulders.



“Well, that just means we ask someone who would know and then get some clothes.”



“Hey! I said nothing ‘girly’! Shopping is ‘girly’!” Kuwabara complained.



“You should have never said you needed something to wear then.” You said, sticking your tongue out at him.



He grumbled and decided to finish his breakfast. It was his fault if you all went shopping, and he couldn’t argue against that fact. Kurama just smiled and shook his head.



“I’ll give Botan a call and see what I can arrange so short notice.” Kurama said.



“Thanks again Kura-chan!” you say jumping up and down before going back to your seat and finishing your breakfast.



‘Today is gonna be great!’ you think as you rush to finish your breakfast.









By the time you all cleaned up the kitchen, Kurama called Botan, you all got ready and talked more about what else to do; it was noon. 



You wore dark blue hip hugger jeans and a nice brown shirt that fit your form nicely and had a beautiful design of light pink and tan flowers that weaved from the bottom of the left side of the shirt and moved up wear your breasts lay; where it stop. You started to notice your body had gotten leaner and you seemed to loose a lot of weight; however, your breasts seemed to get big. You decided to bring a light brown jacket in case it was chilly back in the human realm. 



Kurama wore tan slacks and a nice polo shirt that was an off white color with a navy blue line that crossed the front part of the shirt inside a bigger brown line. It was form fitting and showed off his muscles but not fully. It hinted at his buffed bod; but still left room for the imagination.



Kuwabara wore black jeans and a black shirt that had ‘Kiss my @ssets!’ written on it. You had bought it for him after coming back from the four-saint beast episode. It was form fitting and left no room for the imagination. It was your favorite shirt of his; and he knew it and wore it as much as he could. 



After Botan came with the portal; you all said your ‘hellos’ and arranged a time and meeting place for when you guys would be coming back to the demon world. It was decided that you would be dropped off and picked up by the movie theater and would be picked up around 6:30. It gave you guys plenty of time to find outfits, watch a movie, and hit the arcade; which were the things you wanted to do. Of course Kurama wanted to watch a movie and Kuwabara wanted to go to the arcade; but still, you wanted to do those on top of shopping. 



The shopping didn’t last long as it only took an hour to find everything you all need for the karaoke bar that night. You bought a black mini skirt that went up to your mid thigh. Your shirt was a form fitting aqua color spaghetti strap shirt that had a low-neck line but only showed a little cleavage. The material felt silky and you bought a black jacket to wear over it; the sleeves stopping by your elbows. You also bought tan color stockings and an open toe black heel that was three inches high and had the strap wrap around your ankle and a strap around your toes and both connected by one more straps, which could be buckled so you could fit your foot in it. 



Kuwabara had bought tight form fitting jeans that left no room for the imagination and this shirt was a sleeveless black hoodie that was also form fitting. He also bought black boots that gave him a few extra inches to his already staggering height. 



Kurama was the only one who didn’t buy a dark color outfit. He bought white pants that were also tight and a white shirt that was also sleeveless. He also bought white shoes that made the outfit complete.



You knew one thing. You all would be the hottest in that bar, easily. 



After you all got your stuff situated you decided you needed to get a pedicure and manicure since you figured if you were going to look stylish you might as well have your nails done. That left Kurama to visit his mother, since he felt it was too long to leave his mom without checking in on her; and Kuwabara decided to go to the arcade. You all decided to skip the movie and just meet back at the arcade before the pick up time. You enjoyed your ‘spa treatment’ and had them pamper you and color your nails and toe nails. You got a light blue mixed with some shiny looking green which fit the outfit but made your nails stand out.



It was only a two-hour thing, you ended up joining Kuwabara at the arcade, and playing all the games until all the money you guys had; ran out. Kurama joined you guys not too long after you ran out and by that time; it was time to get back and get ready for dinner; which Kurama was treating you all for doing an excellent job at training. 









It didn’t take you long to get dressed and put your make up on. You made up your eyes like a cats and used shimmering light blue and a little gold on the eyelid. Your blush was just enough and your lips were a shimmering rosy red. Your hair was pulled up into a bun with a few strands falling gracefully into your face. You looked more than hot; and that was evident when you walked into the kitchen where the guys were waiting for you. 



Kuwabara almost fell out of his chair and you thought you saw a hint of lust in Kurama’s eyes; however it was so fast you weren’t sure if it was Yoko or Kurama himself with that look. 



“How do I look?” you ask with a smirk as you did a little spin to let them get a ‘full’ view.



“(YAFN)-chan you are…I mean you always are…but I mean…wow…” Kuwabara said; blushing as he tried to find the right words to express how hot you looked.



Kurama was the first one to recover with his brain still in tact. He gave you a charming smile.



“You look gorgeous.” 



“Thank you.” You said with a small curtsy. 



You smiled big at them. You felt gorgeous. It was starting out to be a great day of relaxation.



“You guys look not bad your selves. Actually…” you say with a sneaky smile as you walked up to the two who were still sitting down; and took their hands and pulled them both out of their chairs.



You pulled them into the middle of the room and proceeded to walk around them, first Kurama and then Kuwabara.



“You guys look sexy…trying to impress anyone important?” you say with a smirk and a wink once you came in the front and faced them.



Kuwabara’s entire face turned red and Kurama looked away casually. You just laughed at the two boy’s reaction. It was fun to tease them.



“Well, what are we still standing here for?” you say clapping your hands together. “I say we go and get something to eat!” 



You turn around and walk out of the room towards the door, with the two guys slowly following behind you.







Fifteen Minutes later….





You all arrived at a building that had a neon flashing light that read ‘Demon’s Paradise Karaoke Bar and Grill’. 



“This is a pretty big place.” You say with a whistle to prove your point.



It was your first time going to something like this. It wasn’t like you didn’t want to go, it was just you couldn’t arrange a time to go with your friends. It was hard when you had a small group of friends first of all and secondly it made it harder when you all had jobs and barely saw each other because of said jobs. It was a good thing you worked with one of your friends, however you would never get the same schedule. Therefore, it was just hard for you all to go out a lot. 



The line wasn’t huge, only a few demons scattered at the front door. Some of them just looked like they were chatting and not really looking to go in yet. There was a bouncer at the door. He was a huge guy, possibly 6’8” with bluish-green skin. He wore brown pants and a white muscle shirt that had no sleeves; it was obvious it was to show off his bulging muscles. His face looked some-what human. However, his narrow yellow eyes and fangs that hung out of his mouth were proof he wasn’t human. He was also bald and not in a good way. 



The three of you walked up to the guy, however he stopped you all.



“Sorry, only demon’s can come in.” he said, glancing at you and Kuwabara.



“They’re with me.” Kurama said smoothly.



“You can go in, but leave that trash out here where it belongs.” He said looking at you dead in your eyes before giving the same look to Kuwabara.



“Do you know –who- I am?” Kurama asked his voice sounding like it changed; possible have gotten deeper.



“I don’t care if your fuckin’ King Enma. I’m not letting that tramp and her fuck toy in here.”



Your eyes grew wide as your face turned red for two reasons. One because that comment pissed you off. How DARE he call you a tramp! Sure…your skirt was a little high, and sure your shirt showed a bit of cleavage, but that didn’t mean you were a tramp! The other reason you turned red was the fact he called Kuwabara your ‘fuck toy’. That comment made Kuwabara’s face red as yours, you weren’t sure if it was for him calling you a tramp, calling him your fuck toy, or just both comments too.



However, before either you or Kuwabara could react, Kurama’s rose whip was out and wrapped around the poor guy’s neck. Kurama’s eyes had a mix of his normal green but with a hint of golden color around his pupil. He stared up at the demon that looked down scared and holding onto the whip trying to not hurt his fingers with the thorns. He looked ready to wet himself.



“I want you to apologize to the LADY and GENTLEMAN behind me; then I want you to let us in. Only then I’ll spare your ignorant life…maybe.” Kurama said in an oddly deep voice as he pulled the whip a bit tighter around the demon’s neck.



“I-I’m sorry.” The demon said.



You looked at Kurama. He looked scary and was even scaring you. You were afraid he would kill this demon. Sure, he called you a tramp…but he made up with that comment for calling Kuwabara your sex toy. Although, it wasn’t something to kill the guy over. Maybe beat him to a bloody pulp but not to kill. You gently put your hand on Kurama’s shoulder.



“Ummm…Kura-chan, he apologized. Why don’t you let the guy live? I accept his apologize and ummm…you’re kinda scaring me.” You say meekly and with a sweat drop.



Kurama glanced back at you and seemed to calm down before turning back to the demon and let his whip relax before pulling it back. The demon got to keep his head, however he had nice nicks on his hands and neck.



“Next time, I won’t be so compassionate.” Kurama said as he put his whip away.



You heard a relieved breath behind you. You glanced over your shoulder and saw Kuwabara was just as tensed and slightly scared at Kurama as you were. You gave him a small smile as he gave you one back.



“Come on, let’s go…” you say, pulling on Kurama’s arm, as Kuwabara came behind Kurama and decided to make sure he didn’t go ‘whacko’ again.



Once you were in you turned to Kurama and gave him a smile.



“Thanks for standing up for me, I do appreciate it…but next time, don’t try to kill the guy ok?” you say with a small smile and a small plea in your eyes.



Kurama sighed and closed his eyes. When he opened them, his eyes were just green.



“Sorry about that (YAFN)-chan…but when I heard that…” he said taking in another deep breath.



Kuwabara wrapped his arm around Kurama’s shoulder and looked down at him.



“I hear ya man. If you hadn’t used yer mad skills I would have sliced him in half with my spirit sword.” Kuwabara said with a grin. 



Kurama looked up at him and just smiled. You smiled at the two and were happy. It was the first time since this entire training started that the two showed that they were ‘friends’. However, you felt a hand on your shoulder and blinked. If the two guys were in front of you…



You jumped and turned around finding a beautiful waitress who blinked at you, a bit taken back.



“Oh dear me, I’m sorry ‘ere lov.” She said with a smile and giggle.



She was a little taller than you and looked somewhat normal, if it wasn’t for two fox ears on top of her head. She wore a mini black skirt that was much shorter then yours. Her top was white and tight; showing off her huge breasts. Written on the shirt it said Demon Paradise in red writing. She had blond hair tied back in a high ponytail and her almond shape eyes were amber. 



“Oh…its ok.” You said, relaxing a bit.



After the incident at the door, you were a bit jumpy. 



“Table for three please.” You say, looking at each side of you; finding Kuwabara at your right and Kurama at your left.



The waitress smiled and waved her hand as she turned and walked deeper into the building. You all followed behind her in silence. You passed a few tables that had some demons sitting at them laughing and drinking. On the stage was a demon who was ugly, which matched his voice that sang a horrible version of what you couldn’t even make out; it was that bad. The waitress sat you close to the stage and the bathrooms. It was the perfect spot to be in any place to eat.



“My name is Jenny and I’ll be taken care of yall tonight. Can I get yall anything to drink?” the waitress asked.



You were oblivious to the fact ‘Jenny’ was giving you a look; which made Kurama and Kuwabara look at each other.



“I’ll have a soda please?” you ask giving her a polite smile.



Jenny smiled back and gave you a wink.



“Sure thing hon. And how about you two?” she asked looking a bit professional when she turned to the guys.



“Umm same here please.” Kuwabara said giving her a smile.



Jenny nodded and wrote it down in her pad not giving Kuwabara the time of day.



“I’ll have iced tea please.” Kurama said, giving her a polite smile.



Jenny nodded again writing in her pad before looking up and giving you a smile.



“I’ll be back in a bit.”



She turned around and walked away, swaying her hips as she disappeared into the crowd. You were more interested in your menu and trying to pick something that sounded good. Kuwabara and Kurama looked at each other. 



‘Was it just me or was that waitress hitting on (YAFN)-chan?” Kuwabara whispered into Kurama’s ear.



You were still involved in your menu.



‘Its not uncommon for those kinds of relationships here in the makai.” Kurama said, picking up his menu and finding something to eat right away.



Kuwabara let what Kurama said settle in before his eyes widen.



‘Where YOU in one of those relationships back when you were Yoko?’ he whispered.



Kurama was spared from answering that question by Jenny coming back with all of your drinks. She set your drink last. You looked up and gave her a smile.



“Thanks.”



“Oh no prob hon. Now are yall ready to order?” Jenny asked, taking her pad out.



She rests against the armrest and leaned a bit close to you. You felt a bit weird by how close this girl was to you, however you shrugged it off.



“I think I’ll get a cheeseburger and fries; well done please?” you say handing her your menu.



She smiled at you and took the menu from your hand. She stayed in her spot and rested her arm on top of the booth chair; her arm and hand right above your head. You take a sip of your drink, feeling a bit uncomfortable.



“And you?” she asked in a professional sounding voice.



“Ummm…same as her just medium rare.” Kuwabara said. 



You took his menu, since the waitress didn’t seem to be moving to take it. Also, when you normally go to a restaurant you usually like to help out the waitress. Only because your little brother worked on the weekends as a buss boy at a fancy restaurant that was down the street from your house. They allowed 16 year olds and up to work there as long as they didn’t get near the stoves. 



You handed her his menu and she smiled at you.



“Thanks hun,” she then looked at Kurama with a profession look. “And you sir?”



“I think I’ll just have a salad right now, thank you.”



She nodded and wrote all of the orders in her pad before standing up.



“I’ll be back, if you need anything don’t hesitate to ask.” She said winking at you before she walked away.



You raise an eyebrow at her before turning to Kuwabara who was sitting next to you.



“What’s up with her? She’s being nice to me and not to you guys? What? Is she a lesbian or something?” you ask meaning it as a joke.



However, Kurama and Kuwabara look at each other before looking back at you. You blink at them.



“I was just kidding you know…what?” you say looking at the guys.



“Well…” Kuwabara said scratching the back of his head.



“Its common for those kinds of relationships here.” Kurama said.



Neither of the boys knew what you felt about gays or lesbians. The topic never came up, so they were worried if you were going to explode or get angry or be disgust. However, you surprised them.



“Oh…well, I guess I’ll just tell her I’m not like that.” You say with a shrug. 



Kuwabara blinked in surprise at you and Kurama looked a bit shocked.



“What?” you ask, not understanding what the big deal was. “I don’t hate lesbians. I’m a little uncomfortable around them; but if I ask them to not hit on me and they respect that I can handle them being around me.” 



You worked with a few lesbians at your job. You told some of them; after a few had hit on you; that you were straight but you didn’t mind being friends with them. They were ok with that, though some of them pouted at you. You got along with them if they respected your space.



“Oh…” Kuwabara said.



He really expected you to act all disgusted and throw a fit. That’s what he would do if a gay guy hit on him. He glanced over at Kurama. He never answered Kuwabara’s question, but now he really didn’t want to know.



Kurama smiled. He found you very respectable and not judgmental like other humans. 



“Hey, why don’t one of you guys go up and sing?” you suggested.



You thought that they were making a big deal out of the entire situation and felt it was a good chance to change the subject. You were at a karaoke bar for Enma's sake!!! You gave them a smile and looked at Kurama.



“How about you Kura-chan? Why don’t you go up there and sing something? Please?” you say, giving him your infamous puppy-dog look.



Kurama laughed and shook his head.



“I knew it was coming…alright.” He said, sliding out of the booth and heading towards the stage just as a demon was getting off. 



He walked up to the mic and looked at the screen. He searched through the selections until he found a song he seemed to like, as he smiled. He selected the song and held the mic to his lips as the song music started. He opened his mouth and with a beautiful tenor sang out the words of his selected song. Not to mention, he did the moves that one should do while singing such a song.

You and Kuwabara both stared at Kurama who seemed to not hear the cheers and the whistles. He walked calmly back to the table and sat down. Your mouth was open but you shut it and laughed.



“You rocked Kura-chan!! I didn’t know you could sing like that!” you said.



Kurama smiled.



“I use to be in the choir when I was younger.” 



You tried to imagine a mini Kurama in a choir outfit singing and you just couldn’t picture it with out a snicker. 



“Geeze, Kurama…” Kuwabara was able to say.



“Well, its now your turn Kuwa-chan.” You say as you smile wickedly at him.



He turned to you with blinking wide eyes.



“Me?! Oh nooo way!” Kuwabara says shaking his head and waving his hands in front of him.



“Awwww…” you say begin to pout. “Pleassee?” you say with your puppy dog look.



Kuwabara bit his lip tried to resist your look, he looked away but found Kurama was trying to help you and he also was pulling off his own puppy dog look. Kuwabara was stuck between two puppy dog looks and couldn't escape.



“Oh…fine.” Kuwabara grumbled. 



You cheered and gave him a quick hug.



“Kick some ass Kuwa-chan.”



Kuwabara blushed slightly but smiled back.



“I’ll try.”



Kurama moved so Kuwabara could head towards the stage. Kuwabara grumbled as you snickered and watched as he went to the stage. He picked up the mic and searched through the song selection before finding something that he seemed to know. He found a stool near by and sat down on just as the music began to play for the song. His mouth opened and a deep voice that sounded like one of those sexy baratone singers rang out into the microphone.



Oh, life is bigger

It's bigger than you

And you are not me

The lengths that I will go to

The distance in your eyes

Oh no, I've said too much

I set it up



That's me in the corner

That's me in the spotlight, I'm

Losing my religion

Trying to keep up with you

And I don't know if I can do it

Oh no, I've said too much

I haven't said enough

I thought that I heard you laughing

I thought that I heard you sing

I think I thought I saw you try



Every whisper

Of every waking hour I'm

Choosing my confessions

Trying to keep an eye on you

Like a hurt lost and blinded fool, fool

Oh no, I've said too much

I set it up

Consider this

Consider this

The hint of the century

Consider this

The slip that brought me

To my knees failed

What if all these fantasies

Come flailing around

Now I've said too much

I thought that I heard you laughing

I thought that I heard you sing

I think I thought I saw you try



But that was just a dream

That was just a dream



That's me in the corner

That's me in the spotlight, I'm

Losing my religion

Trying to keep up with you

And I don't know if I can do it

Oh no, I've said too much

I haven't said enough

I thought that I heard you laughing

I thought that I heard you sing

I think I thought I saw you try





But that was just a dream

Try, cry, why try?

That was just a dream

Just a dream, just a dream

Dream 







You were shocked as Kuwabara sheepishly walked off the stage and back to the table. Cheers, whisltles and appluse followed him as he finally got back to the table.



“Damn Kuwa-chan…you acted like you couldn’t sing but…damn you were awesome!!!” you said as Kurama let Kuwabara back to his spot.



You punch him lightly on his shoulder and he smiled at you.



“Yeah well, my sister made me take some classes when I was younger cause she didn’t want me to sing around the house with out havin’ some kinda experience.”



You laughed. It was so like his sister to do that to him.



“So it’s your turn.” Kuwabara said.



You blink at him.



“My turn? For what?” you ask, trying to seem like you didn’t know what they were talking about.



“You know.” Kuwabara said, nudging your side.



“Since we sang it is only fair that you sing as well.” Kurama said with a charming smile and a hint of a glimmer in his eyes.



You blushed. You didn’t like singing in front of people on a stage. It was different when you were fighting and singing; you didn’t care what anyone thought. However, when you’re on a stage, everyone stares at you and you can’t help but feel as if everyone is picking you apart. 



“No way…I’m not getting up there!” you squeal. “I…I can’t sing well.” 



“That’s not true!” Kuwabara said.



You cursed your singing voice. 



“You’re amazing! Come on…” Kuwabara said beginning to pout. “Please?” 



You were hit by a Kurama and Kuwabara puppy dog look.



“Aww you’re not playing fair!” you say, pouting your self.



“See how it feels?” Kuwabara says, breaking his puppy look for only a moment before returning to it.



You tired to avoid it, but they look too cute you couldn’t help but stare at them.



“Awww…ok..fine…” you pout.



Kuwabara grinned and gave Kurama a high five. You laughed at how much the two of them were ‘bonding’. You smiled at them. It was such a great day. You were all having fun and enjoying each other’s company. There were no worries, no thoughts about the tournament. No training. It was peaceful and relaxing. You wished you could stay like this with them forever. You sighed, it was only wishful thinking and you knew it. You stood up and headed towards the stage.



You hoped the machine had a song you knew. You got up onto the stage and tried to ignore the demons that were coming into the building. You went through the list of songs. You were amazed that it was a huge list to choose from. There were songs that were japanses, english, and even a few demon songs. It appeared that the english songs were more popular then the other two. However, you shook your head at that and decided to find something that you recongizied. Your eyes stopped at a particular song that made you smile. You picked it and took the mic up into your hands. You held it with both hands waiting for the music to get to the point where you needed to sing. You opened your mouth and closed your eyes as you knew this song and just let yourself get lost with the song as you began to sing.



Yeah, oh yeah

Alright, oh, oh, oh



It's amazing how you knock me off my feet, hmm

Everytime you come around me I get weak, oh yeah

Nobody ever made me feel this way, oh

You kiss my lips and then you take my breath away

So I wanna know



I wanna know what turns you on

So I can be all that and more

I'd like to know what makes you cry

So I can be the one who always makes you smile



Girl he never understood what you were worth, hmm no

And he never took the time to make it work

(You deserve more loving, girl)

Baby I'm the kind of man who shows concern, yes I do, oh

Anyway that I can please you let me learn

So I wanna know



I wanna know what turns you on

So I can be all that and more

I'd like to know what makes you cry

So I can be the one who always makes you smile



Tell me what I gotta do to please you

Baby anything you say I'll do

Cause I only wanna make you happy

From the bottom of my heart, it's true



Tell me what I gotta do to please you

Baby anything you say I'll do

Cause I only wanna make you happy

From the bottom of my heart, it's true



I wish that I could take a journey through your mind, alright

And find emotions that you always try to hide babe, oh

I do believe that there's a love you wanna share, oh, oh

I'll take good care of you lady, have no fear, oh

So I wanna know



I wanna know what turns you on

So I can be all that and more

I'd like to know what makes you cry

So I can be the one who always makes you smile



Tell me what I gotta do to please you

Baby anything you say I'll do

Cause I only wanna make you happy

From the bottom of my heart, it's true



Tell me what I gotta do to please you

Baby anything you say I'll do

Cause I only wanna make you happy

From the bottom of my heart, it's true



I wanna know what turns you on

So I can be all that and more

I'd like to know what makes you cry

So I can be the one who always makes you smile







When you opened your eyes you saw not only did the room look like there were more demon’s in the place, but they were all up and cheering. You blushed but smiled.



“Thank you.” You say into the mic before you walk back towards your table. 



It was crowded now and you could barely see your table. However, as you made your way through the crowd, a hand on your shoulder stopped you. You blinked and turned around. Behind you was a beautiful human like cat-demon. He was around 6’4”, the same height as Kuwabara practically. He was slim and lean and had black hair with two black cat ears twitching on top of his head. His eyes were a sparkling green-amber color and they looked lustily into your own eyes.



“Hey there cutie. You sing pretty well for a human. You’re pretty cute for a human too. Wanna dance?”



“Sorry,” you say with a polite smile. “I gotta get back to my table.”



You turn around to walk away however you found yourself pulled back against his firm chest with his arms wrapped around you in a tight embrace.



“It wasn’t a request.” He purred into your ear.



You shivered at the warmth and a bit in fear at what this cat-demon wanted from you.



“Could have fooled me.” You say as he nuzzles into your neck.



“Heh, a bit feisty too, I like that in my prey, in both food and those for…” he nibbled on your ear lobed causing you to gasp in surprise. “play.”



Your eyes widen as you realize that this guy was serious and moving pretty fast. He must have been an exhibitionist by how he didn’t mind stroking your neck with his tongue and fangs and didn’t mind where his hands rested awfully close to areas no permitted by just anyone.



You snapped out of your shock and grabbed his arms, pulling them away from you. You walked a few feet before turning around and holding your hands up in a defensive position.



“I’m…flattered…really I am, but I am in love with someone else, sorry.”



“Who said anything about love?” the cat demon says, grabbing your hand and pulling you roughly to his chest, this time in a dance like position.



“I’m talking about sex.” He purred.



You gulped. You were still a virgin. There weren’t too many guys who were decent enough where you live to have a relationship let alone have sex with. 



“I don’t fly that way.” You say, trying to push away from him again, however you found he was much stronger then he appeared.



“I know you’re not a lesbian by how you were with Jenny. Usually the girls flirt with her. You didn’t.” the cat demon said.



He held your right hand in his paw/hand, while his other was curved low around your waist. The two of you were in a slow dance like state, just shifting back and forth in that same position. He nuzzled into your neck again, using his tongue and fangs.



You closed your eyes. There was nothing you could do. If you attacked him with your spirit bo, it would cause an up roar and you’d cause trouble for both Kurama and Kuwabara. He was stronger then you and you couldn’t break away. You knew if you kicked him, it might make him mad and who knew what he’d do then. You were more cautious now and would think before making any attack; Kurama taught you that. You then remembered you could tell them via mind link. 

Thanks to the training over the two and a half months so far, your mind reading as well as transmitting thoughts to others had grown. You didn't have any random mind reading anymore. You could also focus better and make your way around certain mental obstacles; including sending out a message. However, you were sure you'd only be able to send messages to people you knew.

However, this wasn't the time to read a mind; but send a message to either Kuwabara or even Kurama. You closed your eyes and tried to focus on sending a message however it was hard as you felt a hand caressing your ass.







Meanwhile…





After the song had ended, Kurama and Kuwabara were cheering and clapping. They watched you walk off the stage. It was at this time Kurama thought it would be perfect to talk to Kuwabara how he feels about you.



“Man, she rocks. She always sings the best songs too.” Kuwabara said, biting into his burger.



While you were on stage, Jenny came back with the food. She was a bit disappointed you weren’t there but she found a better place at the stage to watch you sing. She ended up having to wait on another table after the song was over.



Kurama took a sip of his Iced Tea.



“It sounded like she was singing it to someone.” 



Kuwabara blinked at Kurama.



“What do ya mean?”



“Well, she picked a love song to sing.”



“So did you remember?” Kuwabara said with a raised eyebrow.



Kurama sweat dropped. He had sung a love song. He needed to tackle this from another angle.



“Yes, but her’s sounded like someone that she was in love with now; mine was for someone that I use to love.” Kurama said.



“Oh…” Kuwabara said.



There was a bit of a silence between the two of them.



“Who did you sing for?” Kuwabara asked, now curious.



Kurama sighed. 



Kuwabara was a smart guy; sometimes he could be so dense. However, unbeknownst to Kurama, Kuwabara knew exactly what he was going at. He was trying to waste time, hoping you would come back and interrupt the conversation. Thinking of you…



“Hey, shouldn’t (YAFN)-chan be back by now?” Kuwabara said, looking towards the stage.



Just then, your message came through.



‘-Kuwabara!-‘ 



Kuwabara blinked.



‘(YAFN)-chan?’ he thought in his head.



‘-Help…-‘



That was all you could send before the cat demon began to grind against you.



Kuwabara blinked and stood up.



Kurama blinked at him in wonderment.



“(YAFN)-chan’s in trouble!” he growled looking around until he found you ‘dancing’ with the cat demon. “Why that bastard!”



Before Kurama could ask what he was talking about, Kuwabara rushed over. It wasn’t too far of a ‘run’. When Kuwabara got there, he grabbed your free hand; which was pushing on the cat demon’s chest; and pulled you right out of the demon’s grasp.



The cat demon hissed as Kuwabara held you close to his chest; glaring daggers.



“I was enjoying her. You can have her after I’m done.” The cat demon hissed, his claws outstretched.



“No one is going to ‘enjoy’ her.” Kuwabara growled back.



You blinked up in amazement and awe. Kuwabara looked scary at this very moment. He looked ready to kill this demon; just like Kurama wanted to with the bouncer. The cat demon raised an eyebrow before snickering.



“I’m sorry, I didn’t know you owned her. I didn’t see your mark on her; nor smelt you on her.” 



“I don’t own her either…she owns herself ya bastard.” 



Kurama was standing behind you and Kuwabara; he had his rose whip out ready to mutilate the demon that tried to deflower you in public. 



“Well, I wouldn't mind making her 'mine'. I bet she would make the most delicious sounds not to mention be good to bed.” The demon says looking at you as he licked his lips.

Your eyes widened. You felt as if he was trying to rape you with his eyes. You wanted to take twenty showers at that look.

Kuwabara was stunned how this demon could talk like that about you. He just stood there holding you tightly in his arms not sure why but his blood was boiling. An image of this demon touching you, seeing you naked, making you scream out in pleasure. Well, Kuwabara could feel his blood boiling.

The demon smirked before reaching his clawed hand to grab you out of Kuwabara's grip. Kuwabara snapped out of the images and growled as he brought forth his spirit sword and pointed it at the demon's neck. The demon's eyes widened and he gulped as he lowered his hand.

“I will not let you touch her at all. So if you want to keep your hand let alone your head I'd suggest you leave.” Kuwabara growled, his lips curled up as if he was an animal.



The demon looked scared for a moment but composed himself.



“Fine…” he backed up a bit and began to walk back into the crowd. 



However, he turned around and snickered.



“Next time I see her I'll make her scream for me.” he said with a smirk.

He looked at you when he said those words; make your body shiver. You could sense the lust in those eyes and his voice. You watched as he vanished into the crowd. Kuwabara kept his sword out as if waiting for a suprise attack. After a few more minutes he figured the coast was clear and he dispelled his sword with a sigh of relief. He looked down at you with concern in his eyes.

“Are you okay?” 



“Now I am…thanks. I could have taken him but I figured that would make things worse. But don't worry, next time I'll fight back.” you said with a smile.



“There won’t BE a next time.” Kuwabara said, looking at you with a serious look.



You blinked up at him, worry on your face. You turned around in his arms and tilted your head as you looked up at him.



“Hey, it’s okay; I’m okay. You can relax now. I’m sure the food is on the table by now. Why don’t we eat?” you suggested.



Kurama came up to Kuwabara’s side and rested a hand on his shoulder. Kuwabara glanced over at him.



“(YAFN)-chan is right. Besides, I’m sure she wants to sit down after that.”



You sigh. You were glad that Kurama was the voice of reasoning; otherwise, you would be standing there in Kuwabara’s arms and probably would have done something stupid, like kiss him. Your face flushed at the thought and you decided to hide it in Kuwabara’s chest.



Kuwabara looked down at you and nodded. You eeped as you found him picking you up bridal style. You wrapped your arms around his neck and your blush was open for everyone to see. He chuckled at your reaction.



“H-hey, I can walk!” you say a bit flustered. 



“You’re not THAT heavy.” Kuwabara said as he walked back to the booth.



He sat down first and then set you right next to him; at your spot on the end of the booth.



You gave him a playful glare.



“What do you mean not THAT heavy.”



He seemed to sit closer to you. Close enough where your arms slightly touched. Kurama smiled. He was glad that the incident occurred. Only because he believed Kuwabara was beginning to realize how much he loved you. However, seeing that demon holding you and not to mention say the things he did...well, he wanted to rip off the demon's head. He would have too if Kuwabara wasn't in front of him that is. Yoko had been causing a fit and had tried so hard to get out however, Kurama had control over the kitsune enough to make sure he didn't escape again.



The three of you ate your meals without any other incidents and talked about the singers who were on stage. After you were all done and full, Jenny came back with the bill.



“Sorry ‘bout what happened hun. He’s a regular here and will sleep with anything that moves.” She said with a sympathy smile. “Although, he had good taste this time.” She added with a wink.



You gave her a polite smile back. You were too tied now to care if she was flirting with you or not. Kuwabara causally rested his arm behind you and gave Jenny a look of ‘she’s mine’. However, this went un-noticed by you. Jenny seemed to take the hint and sighed.



‘Why do the pretty ones have to be straight…’ she thought.



She took your plates and left the bill. Kurama wouldn’t let you or Kuwabara look at it nor help.



“I have it, remember I said it would be my treat?” Kurama said taking out what looked to be a credit card. 



He dropped a $5 bill on the table as a tip. You were always a big tipper and when you all got up to leave you left another $10 bill. She was a nice waitress and didn’t over do it on the flirting. You were happy as Kuwabara pulled you close to him and you leaned against his side as you all left the building. You waved to the bouncer as you left; who moved out of your way and nodded. He gulped when Kurama gave him a look before he smiled politely at him before you all walked away.



When you all got home you were all exhausted. You groaned as you remembered you had training the next day and it was already one in the morning. You only would have five hours of sleep since you had to get up around six in the morning. By the time, you took a shower and got your pjs on and snuck into Kuwabara’s room with your blanket and Koga, it was already 2:13 am. You slowly crawled up next to Kuwabara who was already out snoring away. You smiled as you snuggled up against his side. His arms automatically wrapped around you and pulled you closer. 



You snuggled against his firm strong form and sighed in content. You wished you could stay in his arms forever, but you knew that this ‘dream’ like state with him was coming close to an end and the Dark Tournament was fastly moving upon you. You could only hope that you didn’t screw the series so much that it would endanger the gang worst then they already were. However, you decided to not worry about it now as sleep over came you and you slept peacefully in Kuwabara’s strong arms.
