At the Minamino house.
The door bell rang. Kurama walked over to the door opening it to see the bright smiles of Yusuke and Kuwabara. "Should I be scared?" The kitsune asked humoredly.
"Are we early?" Yusuke asked, stomping his feet on the mat outside before slipping his sneakers off; Kuwabara does the same before entering Kurama's house.
"Not at all, I was just getting some boxes out so we can decorate the tree." Kurama explained, leaving them at the door to continue what he was just doing. "Can you help me unknot these beads," He points to a pile. "it's the same problem every year."
"I can help you with that." Kuwabara said sitting himself by Kurama, grabbing a handful of the beads. "You know, Shizuru and me always loop them then tape off the ends that can come loose." The red head explained and Kurama nodded.
"I should try that this time."
Yusuke who stayed by the door looked at the two and smiled. 'Yeah, we're definitly doing the right thing by staying here,' He thought.
Joining them, Yusuke grabbed the largest knot and started in at the end. "Sit back and watch the master at work." He was saying. "I used to get the knots out of my shoe laces all the time when I was a kid." He bragged.
"Which in his mind is still going on." Kuwabara said jokingly, but Yusuke just blew it off.
There's silence as the three worked the knots from the red, silver, and gold beads of balls, leaves, and harp holding angels. Yusuke took the tip of one shaking it up and down lightly watching some of the beads drop away from the pile, Kuwabara was picking at the center of the problem to try pulling them free, and Kurama gently tugged the beads away from each other seemingly making more progress than the two.
"Gggrrrr! Stupid beads." Yusuke grumbled slipping a bit into his mouth to try it that way.
"Would you like something to eat?" Kurama asked, standing up. "We have milk and cookies, or maybe some alcohol free egg nog?" He offered.
"I'll pass on the drink part." Yusuke said, still bitting down onto the strip of gold balls.
"Kuwabara?" Kurama asked.
"Yeah, I'll take some of each thanks."
"I'll be right back." He leaves the room.
Kuwabara leaned forward whispering to Yusuke. "You didn't happen to see Hiei wandering around here anywhere before we walked in, did you?"
"No, why? You scared of him?" The spirit detective grinned impishly.
"No," The red head was taken aback. "I just don't exactly wanna get on the guy's bad-side, that's all- its the holidays ya know?"
"Look if you're nervous about being here, we could go. I'm sure Kurama would understand." Yusuke was saying. "And Botan and Koenma are gonna be here pretty soon anyway and Hiei, if he doesn't crap out on him."
His lover's face sank a minute, and he shook his head. "Gee, when you put it like that... I don't wanna dessert a friends' invitation or nothin'."
"Aaahr," Yusuke groaned falling back. "Make up your mind will ya!" He shouted at him.
"About what?" Kurama asked walking back in with a tray full of treats.
"Thanks, this looks great." Kuwabara said helping himself. "We were just talking about the party tonight, that's all."
"Oh."
There was silence a minute then Yusuke cleared his throat.
"So uh, you think Hiei will show up?" He asked.
"Do or don't I'm fine with it." Kurama answered, "It's not as if I'll be alone." Taking a drink Kurama couldn't help but think. 'I mostly hope he'll come.'

"Are you sure this is what you want the card to say Hiei?" Botan asks as they walked out of the library. "I could always make it better."
He paused in his steps and glared at her, making her words jump back into her mouth and she covered it.
"Not that your's isn't just as nice." She squeaked out.
Hiei only narrowed his eyes at her further before turning away disappearing.
"Whoo!" Botan relaxed against the banister of the concrete staircase. "Never again Botan." She said to herself then checked her watch. "Oh shoot! I'll never have enough time to get ready for tonight." Sitting on her oar she floated into the air a short distance and disappeared as well.

That evening.
Hiei climbed into Kurama's window as quietly as possible, then he walked over to the closet opening the door. The darkness in the room hid him perfectly, incase anyone did walk in noone would have known he were even there. The plastic bag that concealed his present was just above his head. He blinked in wonder of what it was, taking note in the size of the box.
A tiny fanged smile appeared on his face. 'Even after all I've said, the fool got me something.' Hiei thinks.
He was tempted to look and see what it is, but he backed away hearing the door bell ring. Walking over to the window, he looks down below. It's Botan and Koenma.
'And I'll bet Yusuke and his ugly friend are already here.' He thought and clenched his fist.
"That won't spoil my plans," He said out loud.
Walked back into the closet taking the box off the shelf. Hiei ran his fingertips across the delicate wrapping paper that Kurama had picked out. He could smell the sweet scent of Kurama's hands coming off the paper and up into his nose, and he found himself holding the gift higher for a better whiff then lowered it smiling.
"You really are a stupid fox," Looking around the room then back at the gift, the devil himself would have blushed into giggle at the smirk on Hiei's face.
Downstairs. The small group is sitting down for the dinner Kurama had prepared for them.
Inhailing, a smile on her face, Botan pats Kurama on the shoulder. "That smells wonderful Kurama, you did a lovely job." She complimented the spread.
"I've been cooking it since this morning." Kurama was saying.
Kuwabara was rubbing his hands together licking his lips; Yusuke and Koenma are right beside him drooling over the large slab of pig meat in front of them.
"So we can dig in, right? We're not waiting on anybody?" The red head asked getting closer himself.
"Help yourselves, I'll just be bringing the rest of the dinner over to the table."
"Here, I'll help you." Botan said, standing up and following the kistune into the kitchen. "Kurama?" Botan started.
"Tell him and you die."
She heard Hiei's voice saying and she spaced. "Ah hahaha."
Kurama cocked his head then smiled at her. "It's Hiei, isn't it?" He asked, and she caught herself from a fall.
"Noo, noo. I just forgot what I wanted to say that's all, I'm sure I'll remember it later on." She reassured her lie. 'That should give me enough time to think up something.' She thought. "So what can I bring in?"
Kurama hands her a large pot of chicken and dumplings.
"Myy this is a heavy pot." The grim reaper stated.
"It's Hiei's favorite," Kurama explained. "I made enough for thirds if he wanted it. No matter how much Yusuke, Kuwabara, or Koenma may eat."
Botan made a happy intone and lead the way back into the dinning room. To their surprise, the food that was already set down isn't gone, and the three were actually arguing about who got the end piece of the ham.
"I'm Lord Koenma, to some meager spirit detective and a goof ball." The grown up, but youthful sounding toddler stated, referring to Yusuke and Kuwabara. "Do you know what that means?"
"Yeah, it means you'll never get it past that binky, junior! Me and Kuwabara were here first, and since even had to go and get him- I should get the end piece, first come first serve." Yusuke was saying back.
"I don't really care what piece I get just as long as it's the biggest." Kuwabara commented.
"We brought dumplings!" Botan announced holding the pot out like a prize getting a room full of, "Aaaaa." The blue haired woman placed the pot on a heating wrack.
"At risk of having the less popular choice," Kurama was saying raising the lid. "peas in the pod." He set the pot down beside the dumplings.
"Man, if I don't eat now, I'll eat my arm off." Yusuke was saying.
"No need to turn cannable, Yusuke." Kurama was saying as he took their plates to serve them, using a carving knife and poking fork he sliced into the large ham, cutting a generous piece for each guest.
Upstairs. Hiei had the box open and the contents were scattered on the bed. "What, does he think I stink?" He asked the air, looking over the candles and inscents. 'At least my gift is usefull.' The fire demon thought. opening each thing individually. 'I'll show him what a waste of time this all is.' Hiei thought.
The small group is in the living room now, working on decorating the tree. "This whole thing is so weird." Koenma was saying while he placed a santa climbing out of a chimney on a tree branch. "Why would anyone want to hang things on a fake tree?"
Scooping down to take something else from the box he looked at a little naked baby holding a harp and he made a weird face.
"I hardly see the holiday cheer in this display."
He held it out for them to see and Yusuke laughed. "What's the matter junior, see some family resemblance?"
"Ha ha ha." Koenma laughed sarcastically.
"Kuwabara quit poking at the presents, and give us a hand." Botan said.
"Guh, what? I was just trying to see which ones had my name on it."
"You can worry about that tomorrow, plug up the lights." Botan pointed to where the plug lay dormant.
The four of them back away and look at the tree with the lights on.
"Ohh how lovely!" Botan beamed.
"Yeeah, better than the one at my house, but something's missing." Yusuke said.
'Yes, Hiei.' Kurama thought.
The spirit detective was looking through the boxes then he pulled out a gold star. "Here it is," He walked over to his long haired male friend. "Kurama, you put it on, it's your house."
Handing it over, he receives a smile of a 'thank you' when its taken.
"Well I was kind of hoping we'd all be here when the star was on top." Kurama was saying while placing it on top of the tree. "But we seem to be missing someone."
'What in the world could Hiei have been planning that he's not here right now?' Botan was wondering.
"I wouldn't waste my time worrying about Hiei, he's not here and we are so let's just make the best of it."
"Yusuke!?" Kuwabara and Botan said.
"What?" The spirit detective shrugged.
"Have some manners." Botan replied.
"Yusuke's got a point, no since in dwelling on absence." Koenma was saying. "So what's next?" He then asked.
Kurama checked over his list. "Now we watch Christmas videos."
"Cool, I recorded Charlie Brown's Christmas the other day." Kuwabara crawled across the floor to his bookbag and pulled out the video. "See."
They wrap theirselves in offered blankets from the houses linen closet, then climbed onto the couch, while Kuwabara popped the tape into the VCR.
"Who would wanna watch a video about some kid named Charlie Browns?" Koenma whispered to Botan, who shrugs.
When Kuwabara joined Yusuke on the couch beneath the blanket, Kurama noticed that Botan and Koenma are sharing a blanket on the couch as well. Sitting down in the lazy-boy arm chair, Kurama sank himself down into the seat as if he were trying not to be seen. After a half hour, Charlie Brown came to a jolly end and Kurama changed the tape- since none of the others seemed to be mobile at the moment.
A Christmas Carol started up next. Botan and Koenma were fascinated in the movies content, whereas Yusuke and Kuwabara were making out as though they were the only ones in the room and the scene only made Kurama want Hiei more.
'Maybe he isn't the master of the obvious? I should have told him how I felt.' The kitsune thought. 'Then maybe I could be part of the gathering.'
Thump.
Something upstairs fell, and Kurama looked at the clock over the television. 'Almost twelve,' He noted. 'Hiei must be coming to my window by now.'
Looking at his friends and seeing they were more than distracted Kurama stood up and walked to the stairs. The first thing he noticed was the scent. 'That smells like the candles I bought for Hiei.' Opening his bedroom door the male's mouth drops.
The room is lit up with the candles he'd gotten Hiei for a Christmas gift, the inscents was burning gently in the little plastic cup Kurama places his- now removed- pencils in and all he could do was gape.
'Did Hiei do this?' He wondered while looking at the window, shockingly it wasn't opened.
A small smile appeared across his face as he walked farther into the room looking around at how nice a job his little friend had done. There was a card resting on his pillow, along with the male's charm from the gift set. The kitsune's fingers were almost too afraid to touch it as he reached out and takes it off his pillow. Sitting himself down on the bed, he opens the card and reads.
You Stupid Fox,
Was it so hard for you to just come upstairs and forget about that stupid ningen holiday? I suppose so, if you want to sit around with Yusuke and his dumb friends.
If there's anything to say at all it's that you're never going to wise-up and listen to me for once. Maybe then you'd learn to listen a little clearer, and realize that maybe it isn't so bad to have someone around to talk to you with out letting the world know you're doing it.
And keep up with how fast you tend to run, so you don't have to worry about leaving the idiot behind, and watch your back when you're in a fight...
I haven't seen your crummy human gift yet but I'm sure it's better suited for yourself- not me- so keep it, I on the other hand gave you something a little more practical.
Kurama blinked to that, looking around for where he may have left it, and looked back at the card to see if he wrote it down inside.
It's under the matress stupid.
Reaching beside the bed, he felt around and pulled out a small box. Unfolding the fabric, he pulled the box free and opened it...It was a small box of seeds, four different kinds and Kurama smiled taking one of each in his hand, then he looked back at the card.
Whenever you decide to come to your room, leave the window open.
Kurama looked over to his window then got off his bed to open it. And read.
Don't bother looking for me though, I won't be there.
'Oh.' Kurama thought letting his enthusiasm slip.
"Stop embarrassing yourself, you stupid fox."
Kurama looked a little surprised when he turned around and saw Hiei across the room and with the blink of an eye, he was right in front of him. "Hiei." Was all Kurama could say before the little fire demon pressed his mouth to his.
Kurama was stunned at first then he realized what was going on and he joined in the awkward but gentle kiss.
When Hiei backed away he scoffed, but there was a tiny smile on his face. "What's so great about that anyway?" He asked.
Kurama was too busy calming himself down inside over what had just happened. Did this mean that Hiei wanted to be with him? Or was it simply something he thought all humans did on...
"You didn't finish reading the card." Hiei mentioned.
Kurama held it up into the light. "Oh, of course."
Now that it's midnight you can stop complaining that I wasn't here to say Merry Christmas, my fox.
Hiei
The End
Hey guys, it's Yusuke; and I know a lot of you have been wondering what's been going on with me and Kuwabara lately like- why is he so bent on getting in my pants. On the other hand maybe you're not.
I must have become the world's greatest lover, because now Hiei is coming to me for sex advice!
I don't know who put the word on the street but this spirit detective hasn't exactly been bed hopping- ever- oh what the hell! I'll just wing it if any one asks or comes knocking. Believe me, you won't wanna miss the next Yu Yu Hakusho.
