Conflicts, Anger, Passion—A Love Story

DISCLAIMER- Wolf's Rain (C) Bones; Plot (C) iLed (me) I do not own any Wolf's Rain characters, or anything about it. I only own this story's plot. No stealing ANYTHING :(

Chapter 1- First Love is the Deepest, No Matter Who

-Note—The Wolf's Rain gang is traveling through a dense forest loaded with caves. They are searching for the right one where they have direct access to water, food and wood for fire and such.-

Toboe slunk behind the group, tired and depressed. Hige had Blue, Kiba had Cheza. Tsume was the only one available, but Toboe was neither gay nor attracted to such a foul creature. Blue had just joined the group after leaving Pops (he likes killing wolves) and already was claimed by the fun loving Hige. Eventually, Toboe couldn't take anymore so he dropped to the dirt with a loud 'thud.'

Kiba turned to see Toboe lying in the dirt. Rolling his eyes, he pushed through the small crowd to pick Toboe up and carry him back. Tsume turned his head towards Kiba and the runt. Shaking his head with a frown, he growled,

"If that runt falls behind one more time, I'll just kill him. Sound good?" Toboe looked up with sadness dulling his amber eyes. It wasn't his fault he was a weaker wolf! He was younger than the rest and Tsume knew that.

"Tsume, why've you gotta be such a grouch?" Rasped Hige. Blue giggled with a tender blush. Toboe, still in Kiba's arms, held onto Kiba's neck and hoped Tsume wouldn't explode, as usual.

Tsume turned his head sharply to Hige. "Wanna say that again, you little rat?" He snapped. Toboe shoved his tear filled face into Kiba's shoulder. This is just what he expected.

'Maybe I WILL! In fact, I'll say it ri-" Hige was interrupted by a loud scream.

"SHUT UP! Just SHUT UP. I'm tired of Tsume and his constant whining about how others suck. All it does is screw this pack up one side and down the other and it makes me angrier than he'll ever be." Toboe panted after his outrage and shoved his way out of Kiba's grasp. He ran into the woods and sat behind a tree no more than twelve yards away. Tsume followed with tears running down his cheeks. He found Toboe sobbing hard and tried to comfort him.

"Get away from me," Toboe cried. He glared up at Tsume, looking more adolescent than he was.

"Look, kid. I'm sorry... It's my nature. My personality. My past," the white haired male said. This was difficult, acting kind for once.

"R-Really...?" Said the runt in his wolf form. "I...Just got so mad..." And he turned quiet when Tsume wrapped his arm around Toboe's neck, forcing him to return to human form. A pink hue erupted from the paleness that claimed his skin.

"Yeah..." Tsume whispered and pulled him in for a kiss. Unfortunately for the two, the rest finally caught up. Toboe had an innocent smile on his face just before the rest caught up. "We'll finish this later, runt." Tsume whispered, his green eyes passionately staring into Toboe's amber pools.

Toboe nodded, blushing. Tsume almost kissing him?!? What the hell was going on? Tsume wasn't even gay...right? Toboe wasn't either, but maybe...just maybe it was time for a change. "Hey, guys," he whined nervously, his face flushed with an intense pink.

Tsume got up, only to walk away from the others. 'What the...Did I almost kiss a runt?! What is wrong with you, Tsume? Don't give in to a little squirt...No! I don't love a guy, especially Toboe. No no no!

After the loudness, ironically it became quiet. There was some exchanging of whispers but nothing more. Finally, Hige whispered something to Blue then went off. Kiba nodded to Cheza, who just stared into nothingness then ran off himself. After all, leader needs to keep track of his followers.

"Hige! Hige, come back!" Kiba yelled as he ran after his pudgy friend.

Hige looked from a cave opening in the direction Kiba was coming from just in time for the two to slam into each other, faces barely an inch apart. A shocked Hige, thinking Kiba was his lover, Blue, shoved his face into Kiba's and kissed him.

"Mhmmhmmmhmhmnnhnhnhnhn!! Uhhhngh! MMMMHMNNHNHNN!" Kiba cried. What in the world was Hige doing!?

Hige opened his eyes; they bulged at the sight of the alpha male's face on his. He shoved Kiba away and wiped his mouth on his sleeve.

"Kiba, what the hell was that?!" shrieked Hige. Kiba shrugged casually and then made a gentle reminder to Hige that it was his entire goddamn fault. Hige sighed and howled for Blue as Kiba howled for the rest of the pack. At least Hige found a den, though a distraught and shaky Kiba. Now we can get some well needed rest and food.
