We all lived in a house in the middle of the woods. Tsume, Hige, Kiba, Toboe, Blue, Cheza, and me (Xanthia-Thia for short). Of course to conserve space, whoever dated whomever, shared a room, or it was for a month. At first it was Hige/Blue, Kiba/Cheza, and Tsume/me, with Toboe with his own room. It worked out fine, but we realized something. If any of us break up, it would be an awkward living arrangement. So, it was the three girls, Hige/Kiba, and Tsume/Toboe. Life in our pack was...weird, which may even be an understatement.

Everyone was always out doing something: hunting, fishing, or walking. Town was a ten minute walk away, but we only went there for groceries or library, which only two people from our pack went to. The only other place that we ever went to are the mountains. The caves, waterfalls, and the best part, no human was allowed to shoot wolves there. Because of the danger of being attacked by wolves, no humans went there, so we had our privacy.

Of course, it wasn't always perfect. Like every family or couple or roommate, we had our fights. They all ended peacefully, and life continued...

Dates:

Blue came to me and asked for advice. 'Thia, what is a date supposed to be like?', she asked. I thought for a moment. 'For me? Well, it's always fun and usually for like an anniversary, they're special...and planned.', I said. 'Wait, Tsume doesn't plan dates?', Cheza laughed. 'I mean like thoroughly planned.', I corrected myself. 'Why do you ask?', I wondered. 'Well, you see, I've actually never been officially asked on one. Or even asked to be his girlfriend.', Blue said.

'What?!', I was shocked, usually Hige asked to go on a date whenever he met a girl. 'Yeah... I was sort of hoping he would say something by now, but well, it didn't turn out that way.', Blue said. There was a knock at the door. 'Come in.', I called. It was Kiba. 'Cheza, you ready?', he asked her. Cheza nodded and got up. 'If you guys need us, we'll be out walking.', Kiba told us. 'Have fun.', I smiled. They left.

'Is it weird your long term friend isn't dating you?', Blue asked. 'No not really, I'm happy with Tsume. Plus, other than memories, I have no clue what to say to him.', I said. Blue sighed. 'So, what are you going to do?', I wondered. 'This is sort of mean, but can you use your powers?', Blue asked. I smiled and nodded.

It was easy because Hige was asleep on the couch. I whispered a few words and my eyes turned yellow. I was sending a 'message' to him about Blue and dates. I turned to Blue. 'When he wakes up, he'll probably ask.', I announced. 'Thanks, Thia. I just want to know.', Blue smiled.

Hige's POV

I fell asleep on the couch. Kiba was dressing in our room, so I took the next best bed. I heard the girls laughing in there as I drifted off. What could they possibly be talking about, I wondered. When I finally dreamed, a random part came in. It was Blue, she was holding hands with me and smiling. We were at a waterfall. This was a date, I realized, but this never happened. The thought of a date lingered on. Maybe I should take Blue on a date tonight, I thought, yeah.

Thia's POV

I smiled proudly at myself. Hige asked Blue on a date for tonight for a swim near the waterfall. Tsume stood by me. 'You had something to do with this, didn't you?', he smiled. 'A little.', I replied. 'Everyone's gone, what should we do?', he asked. We kissed, but interrupted by Toboe. 'C'mon, Tsume. Really?', he complained and went to their room. Tsume was red in the face, and I laughed.

We had dinner outside and I cuddled next to him. I loved Tsume. I knew that we had to stay for Toboe, but I wanted to go out and do something. 'What should we do?', Tsume asked. I thought about it. 'I don-', I was cut off by a kiss. 'We could do that.', I smiled. We went to the upstairs. The girls slept there and we had a small room with a couch and tv.

~30-ish minutes later~

Tsume and I were just lying on the couch, red faced. He smiled as he traced my face, something he loved to do. I heard something crash downstairs. We both went down to see Toboe with a cut hand. 'Sorry. I was getting dinner and well...', he held up his hand. I grabbed the first aid kit and bandaged him up while Tsume cleaned up the mess.

'There, better.', I smiled. 'Thanks, and sorry for the mess, Tsume.', Toboe looked nervous whenever Tsume had to do something for him. 'Don't worry.', I told him and glanced at Tsume. 'Just be careful next time, runt.', Tsume said.

Toboe went to his room. 'He's a young kid. He makes mistakes.', I sad to Tsume. He sighed. 'I know. But you have to admit, it's weird when the kid has a crush on you.', he thought. 'Yeah, even I have nothing to say to that.', I smiled.

Kiba and Cheza came back. 'Hey, how was the walk?', I asked after I got out some water. 'Thanks. It was enjoyable. Nothing out of the ordinary.', Kiba announced. Cheza was still drinking water. 'I don't know how you wolves get so much energy!', she panted. We all laughed.

Tsume was still a tiny bit red faced. Kiba eyed him, and Tsume realized it. They left, guy talk. I smiled at Cheza, and we both laughed. When we got upstairs, we talked. 'So, how was it?', I asked. 'Well, we didn't actually walk too much.', Cheza admitted,'What did you do?'

'Oh, watched upstairs', I used our code word. Cheza nodded. 'Blue and Hige, where are they?', She realized. 'On a date. With my power of persuasiveness.', I admitted. 'Oh. So... Where did they go?', Cheza asked. 'Swim by the waterfall.', I answered. Blue came back, happy.

I smiled. 'So, how did it go?', I asked. 'Um... Amazing would be an understatement.', Blue sat on her bed and laughed.
