" It Started With ' You'


Rain was pouring outside, crashing into the ground and severing leaves as it hit harshly and demolished into the ground below. It was cold and the people on the bsy streets of Tokyo were hurrying with their multicolored umbrellas to get inside to the heated rooms around them.

Their breaths could be seen, like a milky thread coming out of their mouths and puffing out like smoke. Children shivered as Adults held them close and zipped their coats and jackets up in the cold weather that they had to endure for the season.

This was the city; and then there was a small neiborhood with beautiful white houses. They were side by side and all the same in color and shape; but there was one house, away from the citizens of town.

It sat on top on hill with a long driveway; but it was close enough for a walking distance to the high-school. It was white as the others in the surrounding town; but it was different all in the same. It had a beautiful victorian design; rare for a japanese home.

The inside had a few sliding, tradtional doors, while others opened and closed like that of something more modern. There was a bay window, with a dark blue pillowed, window seat. it was comfortable to live there; and it never was dirty because of the people who lived there.

It was a home, a place of refuge. People came there to offer up prayers, even though the house itself was just that of a normal quality. Why they did this you ask? Because of a certain god with his match making prayers, and settling words.

There was also a thing about the house, and the god that people thought was rather surprising, but not shokcing to say the least. On rainy days like this one; if you looked rather close at the bay window, There sat on the window seat; a little kitsune.

With white hair and bright violet eyes he would stare out the window at the dark and cold world as the rain turned it into a torrent of surprise. He would stare with the upmost innocence, but he would stare alone.

He would look quietly, this little boy, His father worked at home so he was never left without his father; but he was quite anyway. When his father did go out he was stuck with a babysitter. He got used to this really, but his father hardly ever left him alone. Which made him happy.

But he was still lonely...

This was one of those days; but the kitsune was no longer a little child staring out the winodw; hoping for a friend to talk to. He was now a teenager walking by the window and staring out at the rain.

He cursed under his breath; hating the water and how it was. It made things way more hard then it could be and he was trying to do the laundry. He liked to air dry things but now he would have to use the dryer that his father insisted should be used. He didn't even know why the god bought the thing. It was large and hard to figure out.

" Tomoe?"

The fox blinked and turned to look at his father; the god was looking at him with a man had blond hair with macroon eyes; he wore a white shirt and cacies today, His smile was a innocent one; The smile that made the teen sigh and shake his head; Sadly he still would smile. The god ruffled his hair making the fox whine in annoyance

" Mikage."

Tomoe ground his teeth and picked out his English book; he wasn't in the mood to be treated like a child today. He was tired and everything he had been doing that day was hard. He had been doing his chores as his father did his god work, and his schooling online. Apparently the money offerings was slowing down and Mikage thought it would be nice to be a marriage counsler.

Tomoe found it embarrassing to look at someone and say, " Me father helps your parents get together or divorced. You choose. " One time he said this and was sent to the prinaples office for being , ' Rude'

The fox rolled his eyes as he sat down on the window seat and tucked his tail under him; his ears flicked about as he opened his book and bit the end of his long claw. He had wanted to read all day; but the slpattering of the rain on the window set him on his nerves.

He looked out the window and glared at the rain; knowing how much he and water hated each other. It made him tired as he leaned back and looked up at the roof. His father stared at him and sighed; he knew how the eighteen year old got when it rained. It was depressing for him but the god didn't know why.

His son was always doing something; or talking to the teachers about improving. He would stare up at the roof or work his tail off. The match making god didn't know what to do at times; he just wanted his son to be happy.

But Tomoe was always working; never having fun, never thinking about girls or thinking about anyone; but the god guessed that was because of his mother being dead and gone.

The fox started up at the roof and then jumped when his pants pocket vibrated; he winced and pulled out his cell phone, half heartly not wanting to see who was calling him on such a rainy day.

Tomoe looked at the scene and blinked; when he saw the caller ID he groaned and rolled on his stomach before pressing the green button and sighing into the retreiver,
" What?" Tomoe sighed out as a giddy voice sounded on the other side of the phone. He rolled his eyes and sighed,

" Tomoe-kun!" ' The voice of sixteen year old, Mizuki Yonamori sounded on the other side of the phone, " What are you doing? Wait! Don't answer that! Your laying down again right? " The snake yokai giggled to himself, " Your lazy..'

Tomoe pulled the phone back and galred at the screen; the picture of the giddy idiot was pasted on it and for some reason he wanted to gorge the idiots eyes out. He huffed out a breath, ' Why are you calling me?" Tomoe groaned out and sat up, his white hair ruffled slightly.

" Oh right!" Mizuki gasped, " Me and Kurama are going out today and thought maybe you would come?"

Tomoe again growled to himself, This made Mikage look at him with a chukle in his eyes. The fox knew how Mikage was; knowing his father he would make him go to whatever it was. He didn't want to go; it was raining and to him it was irritating.

Tomoe groaned, " Will it make you shut up?" He winced as he flopped over again and stared out the window,

" Maybeeee.' Mizuki smiled on the ther side as he pulled a jacket over his head, " Will you come? Me and Kurama need someone to come with us. We cant budget."

Tomoe scoffed at the phone, what was he? A stinking accountant? Kurama was older than him! Why did they need him!? He fumed to himself as he stood, fixed his pants From all his tossing an turning, And then straightened his long sleeved shirt out. He ran his fingers through his hair and breathed out, " Fine... "

" YAY!" Mizuki smiled on the other side and skipped about his room; " We will be there today at noon!"

" Whatever." Tomoe growled out and hung the snake up. He was tired from working on the house all day; he didn't have time to go to who knows what with some idiot. He really hated the thought of having to go out with them but Mikage said he needed more social creed. Which meant his father would have made him go.

The fox groaned and rolled over to get off the window seat; once he was off he stretched, picked up his, yet to be read, book; and started off to the bathroom to get ready. When he got inside he looked at his fox ears and tried to think of what he would do..

Tomoe sighed heavily and pulled on some fresher clothes ( Ones that didn't have cleaner on them ) Them he looked in the mirror and paused,

" I really.. Don't want to go.' Tomoe growled out, staring at himself for the longest of time. He was a normal teen; well not so normal.
He was a yokai with a god as a father; plus he was a loner which meant hanging out wasn't his idea of fun.

Tomoe sighed heavily until he turned around and reached for the door; why did he have a sinking feeling that today was going to suck?"


" But you have to go! I'm paying so your going? Got that!?" Kei bossed and growled in hatered as Nanami shook her head and went through a ton of books on a shelf. She was tired and the rain was off setting her mood. She didn't want to go to a blind date. The last time she went she nearly got molested and Kei gave the man a one two.

She chuckled at her own thoughts and looked at Kei for a moment. The teen was pouting but Nanami didn't really care. She didn't want to go; simple as that. It was raining outside and cold.. What was the point of going and meeting a group of guys? They probably weren't even good looking anyway.

" I don't want to go; I have to much to do here." Nanami smiled as she picked up a book and the red headed teenage scoffed at her.
" We're in a library! This is Boring.'

Nanami smiled, " I know it is; But I have to get a cook book since I live with a mother that doesn't cook at all." The girl sighed and laughed to herself when she found one and proceeded to the check-out counter.

" Please.' Kei looked at her.

" Nope," Nanami laughed to herself as she got a bag and exited the building,
"B-but! Ami needs your moral support!"

This made Nanami freeze, curse Kei. She knew that she wanted to help whoever she could. Especially Ami since the girl was to shy to even talk on her own much less talk to a guy! The girl moaned out in annoyance and looked at the other female behind her,

" Fine.." She ground out, not wanting to go. The brunette cursed under her breath as she thought about a bunch of sweaty men and their male hormones. She didn't want to go..

How did she get roped into things like this? It was annoying.. she just didn't think it would be for a group date.'


Tomoe sent a cold glare towards Mizuki and Kurama. Sadly all the duo would do was smile and laugh at their small accomplishment.

Mizuki was a boy of sixteen with white curled hair and a smile that hid his little devil attitude. Kurama was an actual pop-star who liked the normal teenage life. It irritated Tomoe really ; Kurama was nineteen and was always prying the other two apart when they were arguing among themselves.'

Now Tomoe wanted to bare his white fangs and claw at the two for bringing him to a place like this. It was a nice place, a coffee house as some would say, but it had karaote and things like that playing on the inside on the brown, coffee colored building. Why was he here?

To go on a blind date with some girl that he didn't even know!

The fox fumed to himself as he glared at the two boys; they knew he didn't believe in romance and whatnot. He didn't have time for love; he was just trying to get by in life as it was and now they were trying to add the hard problem that a girl could bring?

He wasn't interested right now; he had far to much to do! But now he had to go inside because he was already in front of the stinking building and people from inside were staring and wondering why a yokai was hissing at two boys on the street.

Tomoe closed his eyes and breathed out slowly, his lips pulling into a pout as his tail whipped behind him. He had to go; or it would look stupid on him. He snapped his violet eyes open and walked into the karaoke parlor. Mizuki seemed to cheer as he and Kurama walked in with happiness.

When they entered Kurama told the waitress that they had people waiting for them, apparently the said girls where there already. The waitress walked them to a table in the back, serval girls were sitting there looking like snobs, well. In Tomoe's opinion anyway.

One had strawberry blond hair and she wore way to much make-up, the other had pinkish hair with a innocent look, and the other...The fox paused, They were all girls from school!

The fox suddenly panicked and covered his face, he turned around to leave but Kurama blocked him and shook his head.

Tomoe didn't want to go out with people he knew! Now they would bug him in the morning about their little, ' Date' and he would have to deal with it! The fox swallowed, cursed at Kurama, and turned back around.

The other girl had brown hair and mezmeorizing brown eyes; she wore a turtle neck sweater, making Tomoe stare at her blank appearance. He couldn't remember her name but they were indeed in the same class; she was the girl that everyone talked about.

Of course he never talked to anyone and he didn't solcialize, so she wasn't exactly on his list. They never talked and to be truthful the fox had no interest in talkign to her. Her mother was the schools nurse and he had visited her several times. Why? He was a loner and loners got picked on.. So he defended himself. In a brutal way.. But this girl..

She was the girl that had a drunkard father and a broke mom who worked at the school; that would explain her plain clothes, she wasn't that great looking.. but she let off a sweet smell that made Tomoe back up a bit. He wasn't used to a human smeeling sweet, It wasn't liek him to think such a thing, but smells could of been based off the girls perfume.

He gagged mentally but cursed when Mizuki steared him over to the table and sat him down across from said, brown haired girl. She blinked and looked up from her menu; her eyes stared at Tomoe and the fox glared back.

He did not want to be here; this was awkward and not his style. He wanted nothing more then to read a book and get away from the world around him. Thats how he was, Work at home and get everything done correctly. When he got out of school he was planning on being a Familiar; It was a large role in the god world and he thought he could make it just fine.

Silence passed and Tomoe squirmed. Mizuki played with his chopsticks, he even stuck them in his nose making Kei snarl at him with disgust. Kurama scooted away from the snake as he talked to the innocent girl; She was laughing and Tomoe coudl already tell that Kurama wasn't going to shut up anytime soon.
Then the silence was broken from the brown haired girl, in the black turtleneck...

" Nanami." She muttered in a bored tone. This made Tomoe blink as he looked at her; his eyes grew wide as she stared at him as if waiting for something. Thats when he cursed at himself and swallowed,

" Tomoe." He spat out in annoyance. He did not want to be around these people or anything else of that manner.

She blinked and looked at him in irritation, " Aren't you that really quiet guy in class?" She lifted her brow and Tomoe scoffed at her. He ground his teeth and looked down the table to see Mizuki and Kurama chatting away with the other girls.

Apparently he wasn't the only one that didn't want to be here today; He chewed his lip and tried to figure out how to bolt out the door.

Kurama seemed really entranced by the peach haired girl but Mizuki looked mortified with the strawberry blonds irritated look..

" Aren't you that girl that has issuses?" Tomoe muttered under his breath and ground his teeth when the girl litterally heard him.

" I have issuses?" She placed her menu down; but instead of getting up and crying like a normal girl? She glared at him, making the whole table go silent. Kei and Ami blinked while Mizuki gulped and hid behind Kurama, ( Who was hiding behind Kei )

Nanami slammed her hands down and stood up, an evil glare coming over her face, " I'm not the one with two big ears sticking out of my head. Your a yokai right?"

Tomoe blinked and then hissed, He stood as well and glared, " And your a Human, Oh how sad for you; having to break everything you touch while us Yokai are stronger then you could ever imagine." He fumed as the girl smirked evilly,

" How about I kick you? That would hurt right?" She got in his face and Tomoe growled evilly.

" You dont have the guts! Your a weak human.. who, I heard, is more broke then a homeless person!" He growled and Kurama stood and went to hold him back from doing something stupid. Nanami on the other hand glared and clenched her jaw,

" JERK! No wonder your always alone!" She spewed,

" Maybe thats how I like it!" Tomoe growled, they both glared at each other as Kei tried to hold Nanami and Mizuki and Kurama tired to hold their yokai pal. His tail flicked about in anger and his ears twitched about, making Mizuki and Kurama wince.

Myabe bringing him wasn't that great of an idea..

Tomoe fumed and cussed under his breath , " Why don't you go home human? I can tear you to pieces you know!"

Thats when Nanami lifted her hand and slapped the yokai in front of her. This made Tomoe blink in shock ; her hot skin collided with his and he hissed in pain at how hard she could slap him.

And this is why he stayed alone..

The fox blinked from how cheeky and sassy this girl was being; how in the name of all of kami did he get sucked into this? He hissed and sent her a evil glare; his teeth baring at the pain in his pale skin. Nanami blinked and then covered her mouth; her eyes grew wide as she blinked.

" Oh my god.." She whipsered out making the fox glare even more. Tomoe growled and this time Kurama and Mizuki couldn't hold him back; he wanted to go home. Out of this rany weather, out of everything that was happening.

Tomoe's lip snarled, this wasn't his day at all! His hair shaded his eyes and he blinked as pain shot through his face, he wanted to leave.. but he had already caused a scene and so did she. Now she was staring at him in shock...

The fox wasn't expecting the girl, with such a firey temper , to bow in appology.

" I am SO Sorry!" She gasped, " I don't even know you.." She whispered and Tomoe reacted quite quickly when she brushed her soft skinned fingers against his cheek. His face tingled from her touch and from the slap but he paused.

He has always been alone, and he never let anyone get close to touching him or slapping him. Now her fingers glided down her cheek, stopping at his collar bone. Nanami blinked and yanked her hand away before giving the slightly stunned stranger a glare.

" But I think you deserved that slap." She hissed making Tomoe glare back. He clenched his fists as she stormed out; her friends following her.

Tomoe was ticked but he did know one thing he was going to do before he went home. The teen stiffened his muscles and then turned to look at a shaking Kurama and Mizuki. He smirked sarcasticly and lit his hand with his blue flamed power. His fox-fire danced about him and Humans watched as if it was a normal scene..

" So.. Whos idea was it?"

Kurama and Mizuki swallowed, then their screams were heard until security carried thm all out ( Expect for Tomoe, who threatened them not to touch him with their dirty hands. )


The Next Day,


Tomeo cursed as his hands fumbled with his pencil, the grip was brocken and he was biting the end in agony. It was English finals and it wasnt going well for him. The test was over and he was still holding the number two penicl and biting the end.

Kurama had dropped by to check on him but he walked away when he saw Tomoe's frustrated mood; the fox was practically hating himself for not studing the day before; but then again he should have blamed Mizuki and Kurama for that.

He was out on a date instead of studing for his most hated subject... He had come home soaking wet and Mikage shook his head to see his son cussing to himself as he marched to the shower. Once he was down he went straight to bed...

A big mistake really; but he was so tired he didn't think it mattered.

Now he was regretting it. Tomoe went to his locker and put his slightly demolished penical up in a holder; then he grabbed his pull over sweater and pulled it over his long sleeved white school shirt. Then he grabbed his scarf and wrapped it around his neck.

It was colder outside and now that school was out he had to walk all the way home. The bus had stopped due to snow warnings so he was in the department of freezing to death.

The fox sighed heavily and straightened his scarf; today was hard for him. Why? Nanami was there glaring at him the whole time; he even had a note passed to him with some rather rude things written to him on it. He had glared at Nanami and tore it up in malice.

He wasn't in the mood..

The fox finished getting his things as he walked out of the school and started on his way; when he had gotten a good lengh he cursed at himself for not wearing things more on the heavy side. He was freezing to death as his muscles shook and his teeth clattering harshly together.

He opened his eyes and blinked when he saw a hot drink stand a few feet from him. There was ciders, Sakes and hot chocolates. Tomoe wanted a cider right about then; if he drank sake he would be braking the law and his father would kill him.

The fox walked up and blinked when he saw Nanami in the line ahead of him. He moaned to himself and shivered as he rubbed his hands together; he looked up with his violet eyes and paused when he saw the girl order a cider.

The man looked at her and asked her for payment first. Nanami looked down at her bag and started to go through it, until fear went across her face and she winced," N-Nevermind.. I can do withou-'

Tomoe rolled his eyes, he didn't care but it was rather pathetic to watch this play out; he reached into his pocket and handed the man some money, " Put another Cider on the tab as well.' Tomoe muttered out as Nanami jerked her head around to look at Tomoe. She gasped when she saw him,

" YOU!"

He huffed, " The one and only.." He muttered in sarcasium.

Nanami sent him a glare but said nothing as she got her drink. She thanked the older man and sipped her cider before looking at the fox,

" Thanks." She muttered, puffing out her cheeks stubbornly. Tomoe just shrugged his shoulders and started to walk away from her.
Nanami then looked at him as he was walking away and paused,

" Tomoe right?"

The fox froze, and for some reason he couldn't speak. Was he to send this girl a cold glare? A cold stare and a hate filled glare? For what happened the other day it would only make sense too; but..

He nodded, and looked over his shoulder, " Its Tomoe... Now leave me be."

He turned around and left Nanami to blink and stare down at her cider, and to mutter.

" Huh, What a jerk.'


Okay, I got the Title because When He bought her a drink she had screamed, '' YOU!" Thus getting the title, ' It Started with You'
Haha.
