I�m glad to hear that you are all enjoying this. Thank you so much for the great reviews. With the holidays upon us I don�t know how fast I�ll update, but since I�m off until New Years I may get at least these first few up quickly.
I know you�ve been wondering if Yoshi was the enemy, sorry to disappoint you be he was just a decoy for Hiei. You�ll meet the real enemy very soon though. I hope my villain can live up to your expectations since writing an enemy this personal is new for me. From the initial reviews I realize I need to change some of my original plans and make him a bit more evil than I intended. You guys better keep feeding me ideas, I think I�m going to need them.

ENEMY AMONG US
CHAPTER 2

Though it had taken a while, Kurama had learned to live with the aching void Hiei had left in his heart. Now, over a year later, he was finally beginning to move on. Times like this were hard though, when the entire gang, minus Hiei, got together. Looking around he couldn�t help but smile at how happy his friends were.
Yusuke laughed as he teasingly pinched Keiko�s ass. When she turned to swat at his hand and scold him, Yusuke easily captured her and pulled her into his arms for a kiss. They had been married several years now and were on the verge of beginning a family. Though they didn�t admit to actually trying to get pregnant, Yusuke had confided in Kurama that Keiko had gone off birth control two months ago.
Turning, Kurama�s smile softened as he watched Kuwabara lovingly help his wife clean up the kitchen. Every plate, bowl or glass Yukina tried to put away was deftly taken away by Kuwabara and put up into the cupboards for her. Like Hiei, Yukina had had a growth spurt a few years ago, and even though she still wasn�t very tall, she now had a lithe, curvy and very feminine figure.
A movement outside caught Kurama�s attention and now his gentle smile turned to the man approaching the temple. Tall, with long black hair, the man�s attractive features would turn heads where ever he went. He wore a silky, long sleeved shirt in deep purple that seemed to both cling and flow at the same time. It had a high collar that opened in a V to expose a medallion on a thick silver chain resting against his smooth chest. All of this topped long, slender legs encased in tight black slacks.
Going out to the porch, Kurama waited for the man to join him. Moving to the bottom step, Kurama moved easily into the man�s arms. �Sakura, what took you so long?�
Wrapping Kurama in his arms, Sakura stole a lingering kiss before answering. �Sorry Babe, I didn�t mean to keep you waiting but I just couldn�t get away any sooner.�
With Kurama on the step, that put him eye to eye with the man that held him. �It�s alright Sakura, but we already ate. Do you want me to fix you something?�
With a twinkle in his crystal blue eyes, Sakura shook his head. �No, I already ate, but I would love another kiss.�
As Sakura claimed his lips, Kurama�s arms tightened around his neck. Opening his mouth, Kurama felt his body�s subtle reaction to his boyfriend�s embrace. Even after all this time, Kurama couldn�t help the pang of guilt that it wasn�t Hiei�s arms he was in. Guilt about Hiei quickly turned to guilt about Sakura as Kurama berated himself for thinking of another man while his new boyfriend held and kissed him.
Kurama was saved from having to pull out of Sakura�s embrace when Yusuke called from the door. �Alright you two, either get a room or get in here so we can start the movie.�
Blushing, Kurama unwound his arms from Sakura�s neck to pull him up the steps. Before they reached the door though, a familiar tingle crept up Kurama�s neck. Stiffening, Kurama turned to stare out into the trees. Frowning, Sakura softly said his name. �Kurama?�
When Kurama didn�t respond, Sakura turned to see a worried expression on Yusuke�s face as he too looked towards the forest. When brown eyes met blue, Yusuke whispered. �Hiei�s back.�
A moment later, Yukina suddenly pushed past the men to rush down the steps. Just then Hiei came through the trees and into the yard and Yukina ran into his arms. �Brother! It�s been so long. I�ve missed you.�
Though his words addressed the little Koorime in his arms, Hiei�s eyes were locked with Kurama�s. �I missed you too Little Sister.�
When Kuwabara and Keiko came to join the others, Kurama broke Hiei�s gaze, took Sakura�s hand and led him into the temple. Heart pounding, Kurama didn�t know what to say. Aware of his boyfriend�s old lover, Sakura gently pulled Kurama into his arms. �It�ll be alright Kurama.�
Drawing a breath, Kurama nodded as he leaned into the embrace. After a moment Kurama pulled away. Before he could say anything though, his friends came back inside. There was a tense moment as all eyes moved back and forth between Hiei and Kurama. Deciding to break the silence, Kurama nodded to Hiei. �Welcome back Hiei.�
Hiei nodded. �Kurama.�
When ruby eyes turned to the tall, dark haired man beside him, Kurama raised his chin defiantly. �Hiei, this is Sakura� my boyfriend.�
Tightening the arm he had around Kurama, Sakura would have held his hand out in greeting, but Hiei growled. �He�s a demon.�
Kurama smirked. �I am well aware of that Hiei. Not that it�s any of your business, but Sakura immigrated here from Makai a few months ago. Kuwabara and Yukina introduced us, and we started dating.�
Turning an accusing glare to his sister and her husband, Hiei grunted. �Hn.�
Even though he was annoyed with Hiei�s attitude, Kurama couldn�t help but be grateful to know that the fire demon was here and alright. It had been over a year since Kurama had deceived Hiei by making him think he was dating a coworker. Not even Yukina, had heard a word from him since then. Now, as Yukina dragged him off to the kitchen to feed him, Kurama felt rather awkward. �Sakura, I don�t really feel like watching a movie right now. Would it be alright if we left?�
Before Sakura could answer, Kuwabara grumbled. �Damn it Kurama, don�t let Hiei run you off. You belong here more than he does.�
Kurama smiled at his friend. �Kuwabara, we�ve all been friends a long time, and Hiei has as much right to be here as I do, maybe more since this is his sister�s home. Hiei doesn�t come very often and I just think he should be allowed to visit Yukina without me getting in the way.�
From the kitchen door, Hiei growled. �You are never in the way Kurama. Like you said, we both have a right to be here.�
The redhead nodded his appreciation at Hiei�s words. �Thank you Hiei, but I still think we should go. Goodnight everyone.�
When Kurama turned away, Sakura shrugged. �Guess this his hello and goodbye everyone. Hiei, it�s been interesting meeting you.�
Without comment, Hiei regarded Sakura suspiciously as he followed Kurama out of the temple. They hadn�t been gone a minute before Hiei launched himself at Kuwabara with a growl. �You son of a bitch! I know you hate me, but how the hell could you give my fox to him?�
Yukina and Keiko watched in horror as Yusuke tried to pry Hiei�s hands from Kuwabara�s neck. �Damn it Hiei, let him go! Kuwabara didn�t set them up or anything, Kurama just happened to be here when Sakura first came through the portal. It was Kurama�s choice to go out with him!�
Angry red eyes glared at Yusuke a moment before Hiei released Kuwabara. Stumbling back, Kuwabara fell onto a chair as he tried to catch his breath. Rushing to his side, Yukina checked his throat. After a moment, Kuwabara looked up at Hiei. �Damn it Hiei! You and I may not always get along but I�m still your friend as well as your brother-in-law. I would never do anything to come between you and Kurama.�
Seeing the accusing glare in all their eyes, including his sister�s, Hiei�s shoulders slumped and he sighed. When Hiei looked at him apologetically but didn�t say anything, Kuwabara grinned. �It�s alright Hiei. It must have been a shock for you to see Kurama with someone else.�
Hiei frowned. �That�s not the same guy he was dating last time I was here. That was someone from his office.�
This time it was Yusuke who frowned as he shook his head. �I don�t know what you�re talking about Hiei, but Sakura is the first person Kurama has dated since you�ve been gone.�
Looking confused, Hiei blurted out. �But I saw him. It was a week after he broke up with me. I went to his office� Oh� I get it. He set that up so I�d leave.�
Seeing the sadness in her brother�s eyes, Yukina went to him. �I�m sorry Hiei. I wish there were something we could do to make this easier for you. Come on Brother, you still haven�t eaten yet.�
When Yukina led him to the table, Hiei was surprised when the others all joined him. Though he didn�t want their pity, Hiei wanted information. �Tell me about this guy. Something doesn�t seem right about him.�
With a sigh, Keiko answered. �I know we�d all rather see Kurama with you Hiei, but that doesn�t mean there�s anything wrong with Sakura. He�s nice, very attractive and really good to Kurama.�
Putting an arm around his wife, Yusuke looked at Hiei. �There�s nothing remarkable about Sakura. He�s a low C-class demon at best. He moved here to escape a more powerful demon that was stalking him. Right now Kurama�s trying to help him get into school so he can get a better job. What makes you think something�s wrong Hiei?�
To please his sister, Hiei had attempted to eat. Now he shoved the plate aside to stare at Yusuke. �C-class my ass. Didn�t you feel the power inhibitor? It�s in the pendant he wears around his neck.�
Yusuke looked at Kuwabara as if to ask if he�d sensed anything. Kuwabara then looked at Hiei. �This is the first we�ve heard about a power inhibitor. Maybe you can sense it because of the jagon.�
Hiei nodded. �Perhaps. Now tell about his relations ship with� Kurama.�
Looking at Hiei sadly, Yukina reached out to hold his hand. �Are you sure you want to do this Hiei? Maybe it would be better��
Hiei did something he had never done before. He growled at Yukina. �I need to know!�
Nodding, Yukina complied. �They met three months ago when Sakura moved here. He was nice enough and everyone seemed to like him. Somehow he just seemed to always be around and before long he was part of the group. Being the only two single people, he and Kurama hung out. About a month ago they announced that they were going out. Other than that, there�s not much to tell.�
After smiling at his wife, Kuwabara looked at Hiei. �If it�s any consolation Hiei, I don�t think they�re lovers yet.�
Hiei grunted. �They�re not.�
At Kuwabara�s surprised look, Hiei shook his head with a grunt. �Humans! If they were lovers you moron, they would carry each other�s scent. The only scent Kurama still carries is mine.�
Kuwabara wrinkled his nose. �Ew, that�s gross.�
Yukina giggled. �Though there is a subtle scent a demon can smell, Hiei�s referring to something more like a trace of ki one lover leaves on another. That�s why, even after a year, Kurama still carries Hiei�s scent as Hiei carries Kurama�s.�
With a look of understanding, Kuwabara smirked at Hiei. �That means Kurama�s not the only one that hasn�t gotten any this last year.�
Shaking his head, Hiei grunted. �Fool! The only one I want is Kurama.�
Smiling, Yusuke nudged Hiei. �So Hiei, what are you going to do about it?�
Looking around the table at his friends, Hiei shrugged. �I don�t know yet. I guess I�ll try talking to Kurama, then I�m going to find out what Sakura�s hiding.�
Yusuke shared a grin with Kuwabara before turning to Hiei. �If you need any help Hiei, Kuwabara and I have got your back.�
Even after all these years, Hiei still wasn�t used to his former teammates� open show of friendship. Shyly, Hiei nodded and mumbled. �Thanks.�
Knowing her brother was uncomfortable accepting their offer of help, Yukina rose from the table. �Since it looks like we�re not going to watch a movie tonight, I�m going to get Hiei settled in his room. Hiei, I still have the box of your things that Kurama gave me. It�s in the room you two used whenever you stayed here.�
After a quick nod around the table, to acknowledge everyone�s goodnights, Hiei followed his sister. In the room he had shared with Kurama many times in the past, Hiei saw Yukina slide back the closet door to reveal a large box. �I don�t know what�s in here but I imagine it�s your clothes and personal things from Kurama�s apartment. If there�s anything else you need just let me know.�
When Hiei just nodded, Yukina reached out to hug him. �I�m so glad you�re back Hiei. Whatever happens, I want you to be happy.�
Returning her hug, Hiei murmured. �That�s something I haven�t been since Kurama told me to leave.�
With a sigh, Yukina held him tighter. �Then you�ll just have to try to win him back.�
Pulling back, Hiei looked at her worried. �What if I can�t get him back?�
With a raised eyebrow, Yukina regarded her brother skeptically. �Is my brother doubting his ability to win a fight? You�ve never lacked confidence in your power to win no matter how great the odds. With Kurama as the prize, now is not the time to start.�
Hiei chuckled. �With you on my side Little Sister, how can I do anything but win?�
Yukina smiled as she went to the door. �Not just me Hiei, but the whole team is on your side. Sleep well my Brother. I�ll see you in the morning.�
After Yukina left, Hiei�s thoughts turned to one particular member of their team. �The big question is, can I bring you back around to my side Kurama?� Not wanting to dwell on that thought, Hiei turned to look at the closet. With a sigh he dragged the box out and opened the top.
Resting on top of his clothes, as if it were taunting him, was Kurama�s favorite picture of the two of them. Kurama stood behind him with a protective arm across Hiei�s chest. Hiei�s hand rested lightly on Kurama�s arm as if he wouldn�t let the redhead go. Hiei�s red eyes were turned up to meet Kurama�s green one�s. Though neither of them were openly smiling, the devotion in their eyes was apparent for all to see.
Knowing how much the picture had always meant to Kurama, Hiei knew he must have been really upset to have parted with it. Taking the picture, Hiei set it on the table next to the bed. Ignoring the rest of the contents of the box, Hiei lay on the bed, gazing at the picture of his beautiful redheaded fox. �Just give me a chance Kurama and I�ll fix this.�

With a sigh, Hiei rolled away from the picture and closed his eyes. Silently he hoped that Yukina�s, as well as everyone else�s confidence in him was not wasted. As he fell asleep, Hiei�s thoughts returned to Kurama, wondering where his fox was and praying that he wasn�t too late to get him back.
XXXXX
Across the city in a small apartment, Kurama sat looking out the window of his bedroom. Though he told himself he wasn�t looking for Hiei, deep in his heart he still held a secret hope. Disgusted with himself, Kurama pulled the curtains and went to bed. As he reached out to turn off the light his hand hesitated. Sliding open the drawer of the nightstand, Kurama�s hand drifted inside to run his fingers softly along the cheek of the fire demon�s picture secretly held inside. �Goodnight Hiei.�
