Summary: When Kurama finally tells his mother about his past. What happens when his mother rejects him? -Warning: Short chapters-

Yuusuke knocked loudly on the door, making sure that his mother heard. There was some rumbling around in there, and Atsuko opened the door. “Hey, what's up with Kurama?” she asked. “He's sick. We tried to bring him to him home, but he denied. So I brought him here,” Yuusuke explained. Atsuko made way for them to get in. Kuwabara placed him gently on the couch. “We need to wake him up,” Atsuko said, “If he stays wet, his fever will get worse.” She walked over to the redhead.

Kurama's face was flushed of all color except for the tint of red spread across his cheeks from the fever. Atsuko placed her hand on his forehead, and quickly took it back. “His fever is burning hot!” she exclaimed and ran into the bathroom, grabbing medicine, a towel, and a small basin of water. She came back, wet the towel and placed it on Kurama's forehead. His breathing was raspy and short, like he was struggling to breath. She ordered Yuusuke to get some of the liquid medicine and pour it into Kurama's mouth, so that it'll go down his throat and help him a bit.

Atsuko made Yuusuke and Kuwabara turn their backs so that she could undress him. She just went to his boxers, and placed a thick, warm blanket over the redhead. The boys turned back around. They stared at the fox laying on the couch. “He looks so much like a girl in his sleep,” Yuusuke noted, absentminded. Kuwabara and his mother nodded in agreement anyway.

“Come on, boys. Let's go to bed, and let Kurama rest. He needs it,” Atsuko said, walking to her room and shutting the door. “Yeah. Kuwabara, you can stay over, if you don't feel like getting' wet,” Yuusuke offered. Kuwabara nodded. Yuusuke and Kuwabara headed to the detective's room and pulled out some futons. “Hope Kurama gets better,” Kuwabara said. “Yeah,” Yuusuke replied and they drifted into sleep.
