A Christmas rose:
Au: hey guys, sorry it took so long, but have been having serious family issues. So yeah this was suppose to go up xmas day but yeah. Still enjoy!
Chapter two:
Last time:
"Sly fox" receiving a chuckle from said fox.
"Come on… it's still late" Kurama stated as he headed back towards the drawing room. Yusuke swiftly following him.
"Good night Yusuke"
"Good night Kurama" and both teens fell into a blissful sleep.
…
Morning came, a chill filled the brisk air as a silvery mist smothered the frosty ground. The morning rays fell upon the pavement, making the ground glisten like gems. It was truly a "Christmas card picture" sight. However the peace and tranquillity that was perceived on the outside, was non existent is the Minamino household.
"Wake up Urameshi!" Kuwabaras' overwhelming voice boomed through the house. Least to say, it wasn't just Yusuke that was woken up. Within the living space, sleeping bags seemed to come to life as figures revealed their bed heads. Yusuke being the first considering the carrot topped teen had literally jumped on him.
"Hey get off of me you bastard!" Yusuke exclaimed, whilst belting the bigger teen in the chin with a right hook. The teen fell flat on his back.
"Why did you do that for huh? I was just waking you up man" Kuwabara groaned as he rubbed his now swollen lip.
"I do believe the manner in which you chose to wake him is what got you that nicely swollen face of yours" Kurama stated tiredly as he tried to flatten his messy, mane of red hair.
"I would do worse if he even attempted to do that to me" Hiei nearly growled from under his sleeping bag. Kuwabara swiftly rose so that he was sitting Indian style in the middle of the groggy boys.
"Come on guys, it's Christmas, lets go and open our presents."
"How do you that Santa has brought you anything?" Yusuke asked. The bigger teen just looked at him.
"Because… he just has ok!" Kuwabara huffed as he stalked out of the room.
"Oh bother" the detective sighed as he plonked his head down again. He then turned to face the still slightly bed headed fox.
"What time are the girls coming over?" Kurama turned to face the clock that hung on the wall opposite from him.
"In about an hour." was the reply.
"Whose going to get wake Yukina up?" as soon as that question left the detectives mouth. Hieis' crimson eyes widened and he leapt from his sleeping spot.
"I'll do it!" Kuwabara yelled as he made his way up the stairs, but only to be forced down them again by Hiei.
"God damnit Hiei, I'm just going to knock on her door!" the big teen exclaimed. The small fire demon just glared down at him from his place on the stairs.
"Then you wouldn't mind if someone else does it then. Preferably not you" Hiei growled. Suddenly there was a small creak from above. Both boys turned to see Yukina dressed and ready at the top of the stairs.
"Morning" she chirped politely. Kuwabara brushed past Hiei with a new found speed that even the little fire demon had to double check to see if the oaf was still on the floor.
"Merry Christmas Yukina!" Kuwabara grinned as he grabbed the tiny girls hands gently. Hiei was fuming but decided against violence… for now.
…
The boys had got changed and decent by the time the two girls had arrived. Keiko brought a bag full of gifts as well as Botan. Kurama greeted them by the door and allowed them in. the two girls ran to the Christmas tree, where Kuwabara and the gang sat.
"Merry Christmas guys!" The two girls cried as they hugged the gang. Receiving plenty of gasps for breath.
"Guys can't breathe" Yusuke choked out. The gang were soon released and they reformed around the tree. Many hours and tonnes of unwrapping later, the gang were admiring their new gifts. Kuwabara had received, a bright blue scarf with kittens on, a few video games, a chain necklace and a couple of comedy dvds. Keiko got a bracelet from Kurama, a picture frame from Yusuke, and some vouchers from Botan and Kuwabara. Hiei got a new white scarf.
"Hn… thanks" he smirked as he threw his old one away and replaced it with the new one. Yukina got a necklace that had a heart on it from… Kuwabara and a frozen tear bracelt from Hiei. Botan got some new clothes from Keiko. Yusuke received new tops, a new alarm clock, Kurama was always accusing him of being late. And also from the fox, a silver plated identity bracelet with Yusukes' name engraved on it.
"Thanks man" Yusuke smiled. Kurama nodded curtly. The fox received quite a few books that he had requested. A beautifully decorated diary/journal of some kind, gold roses were engraved in the cover.
"Well guys… Merry Christmas" Yusuke chimed.
"Merry Christmas" soon the gang left, minus Yusuke.
"Hey fox" he called. Kurama turned to face him.
"Yes Yusuke?" Yusuke just smiled as he pulled out another gift from under the tree.
"You missed one" Kurama looked confused for a second, but quickly made his way back to the detective. Yusuke handed the fox the gift.
"Well go on" he urged. Kurama swiftly looked at the label.
"To Kurama, Merry Christmas, Lots of Love Yusuke"
"I see why you left this to last Yusuke" the fox chuckled. Yusuke just huffed.
"Go on open it" Kurama wasted no time in tearing the wrapping from the box.
"Crystal clear productions? But Yusuke, they're really expensive" Kurama queried. The detective just shrugged. Kurama then delicately opened the box and removed the Styrofoam packaging.
"Oh my…" Kurama gasped. Inside was a crystal, red rose within a glass case. (Au: you know like the rose in Beauty in the beast, its in that bell jar thing) on the glass was some inscription.
"A rose for a rose, my beautiful rose" the rose gleamed in the light, it sparkled and glistened as light landed on the glittery edges of the delicate petals.
"Oh thank you Yusuke" Kurama smiled. He gently placed the rose aside and hugged the detective.
"I'm glad you like it."
"Like it? I love it" Kurama cried as he crashed his lips against Yusukes'.
"Hey there's no mistletoe here fox" Yusuke chuckled.
"Stuff the mistletoe" Kurama moaned as he went in for another kiss.
"Sure thing my Christmas rose"
The end
Au: well there you have it. Yes I think it may be a bit rushed, but oh well. I hope you all had a great Christmas and I hope you all have a excellent new year. xxx
