I�m glad you guys are liking this. I hope the reviews keep coming, they�ve been great so far. Thank you so much.
You probably know me well enough by now to know that Kurama and Hiei will be on a roller coaster ride through their peek-a-boo romance until I decide they can be together. It wouldn�t be one of my stories if they didn�t have to suffer a bit before I let them be together. There will be more lemons later, but not for a little while. Enjoy.

Chapter 3

Looking out the window to where Kurama and Kuwabara sat in the garden, Yukina smiled. �I�m so glad you came back Hiei. Kurama was beginning to worry me, now with your help he�s back to normal again. I can�t believe he was trying to hide how much energy the baby was taking from him. From what you�ve told me, Kurama would have been in real trouble by the time the baby came. It�s scary to think they both could have died.�
Moving to stand beside his sister, Hiei almost smiled at how happy Kurama looked. Spread out between the two men were Kuwabara�s text books and notes. Kurama was helping him study to take his medical boards. Shaking his head, Hiei couldn�t believe the big oaf was smart enough to become a doctor. �I�m sure he would have said something before it reached that point Yukina.�
Turning to Hiei, Yukina gave him a gentle smile. �I�m sure you�re right. He already loves that baby so much Hiei, I know he will do whatever it takes to make sure she�s safe.�
Hiei�s brow rose at her words. �So he�s right, it is a girl.�
Grinning, Yukina held a finger up to her lips. �Shhh, it�s a surprise. Oh Hiei, I envy him so much. I can�t wait until Kazuma and I have a baby. Even though he�s my family now, I can�t help but want more. I want lots of children so there is a big loving family waiting for my brother when I find him.�
Looking away so she wouldn�t see the guilt in his eyes, Hiei was almost grateful when Yusuke and Keiko interrupted. �Hey you two, what�s going on?�
Yukina smiled at their friends. �Oh nothing, Hiei and I were just talking about how lucky Kurama is to be having a baby.�
Having seen something else in Hiei�s expression more than once in the week he�d been back, Yusuke decided to pursue it while Kurama wasn�t around. �That�s not the impression I�ve gotten Hiei. What do you really think about this baby?�
Glaring at Yusuke, Hiei grunted but didn�t answer. �Hn.�
Yusuke nodded. �That�s what I thought. Hiei if you�re against Kurama having this baby, why are you here helping him?�
Turning to the window, Hiei made sure Kurama was occupied and wouldn�t hear his true feelings. �It�s my fault he�s pregnant Detective. If I hadn�t left my partner to fight alone, he would never have been raped. The least I can do is make sure he and his child are safe.�
There was an uncomfortable silence after Hiei�s confession. Wanting to lighten the mood, Keiko spoke up. �So, what does everyone think the baby will look like? Can you imagine how pretty a baby girl will look with Kurama�s beautiful red hair?�
Seeing what Keiko was doing, Yukina giggled. �Oh yes, especially if she has cute little Youko ears peeking out the top.�
Yusuke laughed. �Yeah, but how will Kurama explain those ears to his mother?�
All eyes turned to Hiei as if waiting for him to join the fun. Instead, Hiei growled. �Demon children usually take after their sires. It�s more likely she�ll have that son-of-a-bitch�s black hair and black eyes.�
Watching Kurama laugh at something Kuwabara said, Hiei didn�t see the smiles fall from his friend�s faces. �I�ll be leaving right after the birth. Kurama trusts me, but I�m not sure I�ll ever be able to look at that child without seeing the man that raped my f� partner.�
Hearing the pain in Hiei�s voice, Yukina placed a hand on his arm. �Hiei, that baby is half Kurama�s. Surely for his sake you could see her that way? It will break his heart to lose the man he l� calls his best friend over something he can�t change.�
Not sure of how to answer her, Hiei turned away from the window. �Kurama�s coming inside. Find something else to talk about.�
Knowing Kurama would be able to feel his anger through his energy, Hiei hung back allowing the others to distract the Youko as he drew several deep breaths to calm himself. By the time Kurama reached him, Hiei was back in control. �So Fox, did that fool wear you out?�
With a smile, Kurama shook his head. �No Hiei, I�m fine. With all the ki you�ve been giving the baby, I was fine in the garden with my plants around me.�
Seeing the scowl Hiei gave him, Kuwabara got in his face. �I�d never do anything to hurt Kurama or his baby you stupid Shrimp!�
Seeing Hiei glare back from almost eye level, Kuwabara jumped back. �Damn Hiei, why�d you have to go and get so tall. It gives me the creeps to see you on my level.�
Hiei would have retorted, but seeing the looks in Kurama and Yukina�s eyes stopped him. �Hn.�
Smiling, Kurama grabbed Hiei�s hand and pulled him toward the door. �Come on Hiei, let�s go for a walk in the forest before dinner.�
Shaking his head, Hiei knew he would indulge the fox. Behind them, Yukina called out. �We�ll have dinner ready in an hour, so don�t be late.�
When they left, Keiko grinned. �If only Hiei could get past his feelings about the baby, those two would make a great couple.�
Kuwabara�s lip curled in disgust. �I don�t understand why anyone would want Hiei, but Kurama sure seems to like him. What�s going on with them though? It�s like each of them is keeping something from the other.�
Yusuke shrugged. �I don�t know Kuwa, I just hope neither of them gets hurt in the end.�

Hiei sat behind Kurama on the bed. The fire demon�s arms were around him so his hands could rest on the ever growing swell of Kurama�s stomach. In this position, Hiei could surround Kurama with his ki as the redhead rested against him talking to Shiori on the phone. �It shouldn�t be much longer Mother. There�s a big project I�m working on, that if all goes well, it will be finished this week. After that I can wrap things up and come home.�
With Kurama�s head resting back against him, Hiei could hear Shiori asking after his health. �Yes Mother, I�m eating well and taking care of myself� No, I should have the extra weight back off before I get home� Did I tell you Hiei came to see me?� Yes, we had a really good time. It�s always nice when I get to spend time with my best friend.�
Hiei didn�t realize that his arms tightened at Kurama�s words. Closing his eyes, Hiei nuzzled his nose deeper in Kurama�s red hair to inhale his musky rose scent. No longer listening to their conversation, Hiei didn�t even realize Kurama had hung up until long fingers entwined with his over the baby. Not wanting to break the mood, neither spoke until Hiei felt Kurama�s energy waver. �Change back Fox.�
With a sigh, Kurama turned to look up at Hiei. �Thank you Hiei. I�m glad I got to talk to her one last time.�
Hiei frowned. �You had better mean, one last time before the baby comes Fox. I promise you�ll get back to her safely.�
With a smile, Kurama nodded and reluctantly changed forms. �Even with you feeding ki to the baby, that was a big drain on my energy.�
When Kurama would have moved out of his arms, Hiei pulled him back against him. �Rest Kurama. I want your energy back up before you go anywhere.�
With a grateful smile, Kurama nodded and settled back against Hiei. �I still don�t know what I�m going to tell Mother about the baby. It�s not like I can hide a baby from her.�
Hiei smirked. �You�re going to lie like you always do, and she�s going to believe every word you say. Then she�s going to be thrilled to finally have a grandchild.�
Kurama chuckled. �You�re right about that Hiei, but I�m sure she�s going to expect my baby to come with a mother. She�ll be upset if I try to tell her the mother doesn�t want her.�
Hiei nodded. �Knowing Shiori, she�ll probably try to find the woman so she�ll marry you. It would cause fewer problems if you tell her the mother died in childbirth.�
Reminded that there was still a chance that he and the baby could die in childbirth, Kurama sighed. �Yeah, I guess.�
Realizing what he�d said, Hiei rubbed Kurama�s very pregnant tummy. �Don�t worry Fox, you�ll be fine. Look how big she�s gotten in the past few weeks. You�re much stronger too now that the baby isn�t draining all of your energy. Besides, I won�t let anything happen to you.�
Smiling, Kurama closed his eyes as he tightened his fingers on Hiei�s. �You�re right Hiei, (yawn) everything is going to be just fine so long as you�re with me.�
Even if Kurama�s sleepy voice wasn�t enough evidence, his now gentle purring told Hiei he�d had fallen asleep. Looking down at the Youko in his arms, Hiei wondered at the protective feelings he�d developed for his friend. Dismissing it as the guilt that had plagued him since hearing Kurama was pregnant, Hiei nuzzled into his long silver hair and drifted off to sleep.

Looking at Hiei sprawled out on the bed, Kurama shivered and rose to go close the window. Sensing Kurama�s absence, Hiei lifted his head and gave him a sleepy frown. Rubbing his arms, Kurama hurried to get back under the covers. �Aren�t you cold Hiei? It�s freezing in here.�
Pulling Kurama close, Hiei grunted. �Hn. I�m a fire demon Fox, I�m never cold. In fact it�s pretty warm in here. Are you feeling alright?�
After thinking a moment, Kurama shrugged. �I haven�t slept very well. The baby was really restless most of the night. The last hour she hasn�t moved hardly at all.�
Worried, Hiei sat up. �Kurama, how long have you been cold?�
Kurama frowned. �About an hour.�
Pulling the covers around Kurama, Hiei jumped from the bed. Grabbing his pants, Hiei pulled them on as he headed for the door. Though Yukina was an early riser, it wasn�t even dawn yet, so Hiei went to her room and banged on the door. �Yukina! Something�s wrong with Kurama!�
Not waiting for an answer, Hiei went back to Kurama. Huddled in the bed, Hiei could see the Youko was worried. �Yukina�s coming Fox.�
A moment later Yukina and Kuwabara came rushing into the room. Hiei stepped aside to allow Yukina to sit on the side of the bed. Before she could ask, Hiei volunteered the information he was sure she would ask. �He says the baby didn�t let him sleep. Now he�s freezing and the baby isn�t moving.�
Nodding, Yukina smiled at Kurama reassuringly as she reached out to place her hands over his chest and abdomen. Kurama watched anxiously as Yukina�s energy scanned him. His heart pounded as he waited for her to speak. �The baby�s fine Kurama. I don�t know why you�re cold though. Since you are about at your term, perhaps we should consider the idea of you having the baby today, or at least soon. I think it would be a good idea to do it while you are both strong, before either of you get�s into any trouble.�
Now that he knew his baby was safe, Kurama�s heart was pounding for a different reason. Needing reassurance, Kurama glanced at Hiei. Understanding the unspoken question, Hiei nodded. �She�s right Kurama. You said the birth can be dangerous for you anyways. If you wait, the birth could become more difficult. Besides, maybe this is the baby�s way of saying it�s time.�
Knowing they were both right, Kurama finally nodded. �Okay, I guess today is going to be my daughter�s birthday.�
Teasingly, Yukina raised an eyebrow and giggled. �So, you still think it�s going to be a girl, do you?�
When Kurama�s eyes widened, Yukina and Kuwabara both laughed. Beside him, Kurama heard Hiei grunt. �Stupid Fox.�
Rising from the bed, Yukina started giving orders. �Hiei, help Kurama get warm, then I want him to have a shower. Kurama, let me know if anything changes. Kazuma, call Yusuke and get him over here. From what Kurama has said before, his energy will become low and erratic during the birth and he�ll have trouble concealing himself and the baby from others. It might invite unwanted attention that we�ll need Yusuke to take care of.�
Kuwabara frowned. �What about me?�
Tilting her head to the side, Yukina gave him a look of disbelief. �You�re a doctor, aren�t you? You and I will be operating on Kurama and have a newborn to take care of. As for Hiei, he�ll be helping Kurama keep his energy up for the birth.�
Leaving Hiei to take care of Kurama, Yukina led Kuwabara from the room. Out in the hall she pulled him aside. �Kazuma, the demon that raped Kurama, was he an ice apparition?�
Eyes wide, Kuwabara shrugged. �I don�t think so. He used illusions to confuse and distract us during the fight. I think that�s how he got the drop on Kurama. Why?�
Yukina shook her head as if confused. �It�s the baby causing Kurama to be so cold. I just thought that maybe her sire was an ice demon of some sort. Oh well, it�s not important right now. We have work to do.�
Back in the bedroom, Hiei had sat on the bed, pulled Kurama up against him and was flaring his ki to warm the Youko up. With a shiver, Kurama moaned. �Oh Hiei, that feels so good. I don�t think I�ve ever been this cold. It�s like I�m being frozen from the inside out.�
With Hiei�s added warmth, it only took a few minutes for Kurama to warm up. �I guess I�d better go get that shower Yukina ordered.�
Covers and all, Hiei helped Kurama from the bed. Without asking permission, Hiei followed Kurama into the bathroom. Try as he might, Kurama couldn�t help but blush as Hiei pulled the blankets away and began undressing the Youko. Seeing this, Hiei grunted. �You�re like a thousand years old, and had about a million lovers, and yet you�re embarrassed to have me undress you? Stupid Fox.�
Hiei smirked when Kurama pouted. �I may have had a few more lovers than you Hiei, but I wasn�t that big of a whore.�
Tossing Kurama�s tunic aside, Hiei looked up as he reached for the tie on his pants. �A few more would be an understatement Fox, since I haven�t had any lovers. You�d think it would be me blushing, not you.�
Much to Hiei�s dismay, a moment later, as he pulled Kurama�s pants down, he found the Youko�s large cock right in front of his nose. Before he knew it, the fire demon felt warmth spread up his face as he blushed. When Kurama chuckled, Hiei grunted. �Stupid Fox!�
Before Kurama could comment on the cute picture Hiei made, the fire demon turned him around and shoved him into the shower. Kurama yelped when Hiei turned the faucet and cold water showered down on him. �HIEI!�
Adjusting the knob, Hiei used his ki again to warm the fox until the water heated. Hiei knew the moment the water was the right temperature because Kurama moaned and turned his face up to the spray. Hiei hadn�t even realized he was watching Kurama bathe until the long silver hair had been washed and soapy hands were running down his muscular chest and over his pregnant belly.
Gulping, Hiei quickly moved away and pulled the shower curtain closed. Turning away, it took Hiei a moment to realize that not all of his discomfort was in the form of embarrassment. Some of it came from the tightness of his pants. Having only recently experienced the phenomena of getting an erection, Hiei was confused.
Frowning at himself in the mirror, Hiei realized that this had only begun happening since he�d been taking care of Kurama. The first time had been when he�d watched Kurama�s naked form the day he�d returned. It had happened several times since then though. Sometimes when he held Kurama as he slept, and especially the other day as he�d held Kurama while he talked to Shiori.
Lost in his thoughts, Hiei hadn�t realized Kurama had finished his shower until he spoke. �Hiei, what are you doing?�
Realizing he was still frowning at his own reflection, Hiei blinked and turned to Kurama. Seeing the Youko standing in the tub, naked and dripping, Hiei frowned more. Snatching a towel from the rack, he tossed it at Kurama. �Put some damn clothes on you stupid Fox.�
Not understanding that Hiei walked away to hide the bulge in his pants, Kurama sadly took the towel and dried himself off. With a regretful sigh, Kurama picked up his clothes and tossed them in the hamper before reaching for a robe on the back of the door. Only when it was securely tied did Kurama join Hiei in the bedroom.
Across the room, Kurama saw Hiei look longingly out the window. Hoping his disappointment didn�t reflect in his voice, Kurama spoke softly. �I know how much you must want to leave by now Fire-Fly. It won�t be much longer and you�ll be free to go. Thank you for staying with me.�
Something in Kurama�s voice drew Hiei to turn around, but Kurama had already turned away to reach for a brush from the dresser. When Kurama began working the tangles from his hair, Hiei marched across the room and snatched the brush from his fingers. �You�re just making it worse Fox! Go sit on the bed!�
Silently, Kurama obeyed. With his pregnancy causing him to be overly emotional, Kurama didn�t trust his voice wouldn�t betray his feelings. As Hiei moved to kneel behind him on the bed and began gently working the brush through his hair, Kurama closed his eyes and willed himself not to cry.
Behind him, Hiei was silently cursing himself as he tried to figure out why he was so annoyed. He didn�t like the fact that his body was reacting to Kurama and he didn�t understand why. Kurama�s promise that he could leave soon was pissing him off too. He also didn�t like the way he felt at the prospect of leaving the fox.
Slowly, the act of brushing Kurama�s hair calmed Hiei�s anger. It also had the effect of calming Kurama. By the time Yukina came back in the room the two men acted as if nothing had happened. Curiously, each was wondering if anything really had happened.
Seeing her arms full, Hiei jumped off the bed to help. Seeing him wearing just a robe, Yukina smiled. �Oh good, I won�t have to tell you to undress. Now let�s get this bed stripped down. I�ve got clean sheets for it and a drape to cover it with during the procedure.�
Standing as if he would help, Kurama found Hiei in front of him preventing him from doing anything. Silently, Kurama stood and watched as Yukina and Hiei prepared the bed. When Kuwabara came in carrying a covered tray, Yukina quickly cleared the nightstand so he could put it down. Without a word, Yukina and Kuwabara left the room.
Hiei and Kurama gave each other an awkward look before their friends returned. Yukina had another armload of things which she took to the dresser and began laying out. Kuwabara had a bassinette which he set near Yukina. Looking closer, Hiei and Kurama saw that this is where the baby would be taken care of after the birth.
When they finished, Yukina looked at Kurama. �All I need are those plants we talked about for your anesthesia Kurama.�
Nodding, Kurama pulled seeds from his hair. One he grew into a little yellow flower which he handed to Yukina. The other he held up like a toast to his friends, then swallowed it. Hiei�s eyes widened in alarm but he made no comment.
Taking the yellow flower, Yukina set it next to the try by the bed and sighed. �I think we�re ready. As soon as Yusuke gets here we can get started.�
As if on cue Yusuke and Keiko appeared in the doorway. �Did I hear my name? I know I wanted to be here when the baby came Kurama, but I didn�t think I�d be helping.�
Laughing to try and ease some of his tension, Kurama smiled at him. �We have the perfect role for you Yusuke, you get to be my bodyguard.�
Yusuke nodded. �I can do that. Now what?�
Looking around, Yukina took charge. �Since Kazuma and I will be handling the delivery and the baby, I want Keiko to be nearby in case there�s anything else we need. Yusuke, go keep your eye out for unwanted company. Kurama, I guess it�s time to lay on the bed. Hiei, help cover him above and below his tummy with these drapes and take his robe off. Kazuma and I are going to go wash up, that will give you a minute to get ready.�
When everyone had left the room, Hiei and Kurama looked at each other. After a moment, Kurama gave Hiei a nervous smile. �I guess it�s time.�
Moving toward the bed, Kurama untied his robe. Behind him he could feel Hiei drawing it from his shoulders. When Kurama was laying naked on the bed, Hiei snapped open one of the drapes Yukina had left and covered his lower body. Snapping open the smaller drape, Hiei covered Kurama�s chest. If the situation weren�t so serious, Hiei would have laughed at how silly Kurama looked with his head and big round belly sticking out of the drapes.
Hiei wasn�t sure what he should do next until Kurama�s frightened golden eyes looked up at him. Without hesitation, Hiei sat near Kurama�s head and reached out to hold one of his hands. �Everything is going to be fine Kurama. You have the whole team here taking care of you. We won�t let anything happen to you or your baby. Before you know it this will all be over and you�ll be holding your baby.�
Giving a little sigh of relief, Kurama smiled up at Hiei. �Thank you Hiei. Right now there�s no one I�d rather have here with me than you� and our friends.�
Hiei watched a look of indecision cross Kurama�s eyes and waited. A moment later, Kurama drew a breath. �Hiei, there�s something I should have told you��
Before Kurama could finish, Yukina and Kuwabara came back into the room. Looking at Kurama, Yukina smiled. �Is there anything you wanted to do before we start Kurama?�
With one last regretful look at Hiei, Kurama turned to her and shook his head. �No, I�m ready.�
