Chapter 2
Naruto
I walked uncomfortably down another wrong street. I don't know how I can get lost so easily. And didn't gaara say I shouldn't get lost? I'm already 30 min. late then what I'm supposed to be. My ears twitched nervously under my hat. I couldn't take the tension building in my body. What was he going to make me do?...I shivered at the thought. I don't want to admit it but...I am scared. My orangish yellow ears won't just twitch but they will lay down on the top of my head. And I bet if my tail was free it would be in between my legs like a scared puppy. Oh and since I'm not sure if these people around here are demons also I cant exactly be free. And to make another point I don't know if I want to be let out in front of a god like Gaara.
I finally looked at the directions in my hand a final time and turned another corner...this time I knew I was getting somewhere. The aura seemed to get darker. And before I knew it I came to a large house. Nervously twitching I opened the gate in the front and walked up the house to knock on the door with a light blush
Gaara
I waited patiently for my little kitsune to arrive. I wouldn't have been surprised if he went and drowned himself in a lake rather than come here. I checked the clock, it's already been half an hour, I sighed. I was really hoping to have more of an eventful night with someone other than my shadow. I looked out of the window out of boredom, letting my irritation flow outside my body, probably causing the hair on the backs of peoples neck to rise on the whole block. A movement caught my eye as I saw Naruto walking slowly down the street, he looked at each house trying to find the Numbers, how cute, he'd gotten lost. I rushed down stairs and opened the door just as he was about to knock, causing his little weak fist to knock me right in the face. I grabbed his arm out of reflex, and held him by the wrist; it felt really thin, like he was skin and bones.
Naruto
I squeaked really in a weakly type of way when gaara had grabbed my wrist. It wasn't rough but it wasn't soft. I bet it would leave red marks but maybe not a bruise.
"I-I'm sorry I didn't mean...to" I stuttered as I looked into those green eyes again. A small smirk, that let me see his fang, showed again slightly causing to rethink my decision in coming here. My face had gotten a little pinker as, a very bad timing; gust of wind came and blew my hat away. My ears lightly twitched out of the freedom, standing up then automatically reclaiming the top of my head, lying down as my nervousness increased. Quickly I put my free arm over my head, breaking our eye connection to look at the ground.
Gaara
he was looking down so he couldn't see my frown, I pulled him inside by the wrist I was holding onto, and shut the door. He made another squeak that was a sound of pain. I couldn't see his eyes, but I realized I was holding his wrist tightly. I loosened my grip but didn't let go. He was still covering his ears, I only caught a glimpse, and I wanted to see more. Using my free arm, I tugged his free arm off of his head, his ears were flat back against his skull, which was a sign of nervous, scared and any other distressful emotion. He looked up at me and gulped.
"It's ok, I should have let you knock... you got lost I see? I guess I can't blame you, but don't let it happen again." he nodded and I thought I saw a tear in his eye. He looks so cute with his ears, what does his tail look like? I wondered to myself.
Naruto
I was pulled inside and again i let out a squeak, a sign of weakness. His hand loosened and I sighed n relief. But then sadly he took my other arm off making my ears become free for his viewing. I brought my head up to look at him and i bit my lower lip. Gaara didn't sound that mad but...then again he always sounds the same way.
"Um...G-gaara can y-" I stopped my sentence short. Not knowing what his reaction might be if I actually asked him. I didn't want him to get mad but then again I didn't want to be stuck in his grasp forever. Even if my life now seemed as if I was probably going to be at his side forever. But it was beginning to hurt. The red head looked at me with a confused look. I had to stop staring at him so i turned my head away hoping that would calm my body some, "N-Never mind...Sorry gaara..."
Gaara
"Can you what? I don't like it when people don't finish their sentences. You can ask me anything, unless I say otherwise. you're not a prisoner here, so don't think of it as that way." I paused for a minute. "Are you thirsty? You walked here from school didn't you? I guess it is quite a walk." I pulled him along by his wrist, I liked having company, someone near me. I felt bad for forcing him to be here, but now I didn't want him to run away. I led him to my kitchen and began rummaging around in the fridge.
Naruto
My ears perked up at the words "Not a prisoner" it makes me feel a bit better. Plus he offered me something. Maybe this demon is different. "U-Um...I was just g-going to ask if you could...let go. It's..." Gaara looked at me oddly as he brought out 2 water bottles with one hand. "It's...starting to kind of hurt...sorry" I don't know why I thought I had to apologize for everything. It just felt sort of the right thing to. My ears weren't on the top of my skull anymore but every so often they would twitch. My face began to blush.
Gaara
I dropped his hand immediately, I noticed out of the corner of my eye that he had red marks now around his wrist; I just prayed he wouldn't bruise. Then I had a thought d him covered in bruises, my body cave a craving shiver, and I almost smiled, wanting to paint that mental picture, then I saw Naruto move and it snapped me back to reality. He was rubbing his wrist. I used my free hand to pass him the water bottle. "It's not your fault don't be sorry." I assured him. Then I felt bad thinking of his innocent body covered in bruises. Curses, why was I born a demon? If anyone should be sorry it should be me.
"Oh, sorry." he mumbled, apologizing for apologizing. I actually gave a chuckle; this was way more entertaining than staring out the window wishing I could harm myself like a normal human. Only thing is, I didn't know what to do from here. Most of my movies were porn, not that I watched movies much anyway. What would he want to do? I thought about the possibilities Naruto and I could do together, but my mind jumped to the dirty stuff. I really didn't know what to say.
Naruto:
I held my wrist looking at the marks on it. I didn't know if I would be able to look up at his face. But then he laughed! Well it was more of a snicker or a chuckle. His look was slightly odd as if he was trying to think of something intently. What could he be thinking of that could be so confusing for even a demon like him? I quickly looked around the kitchen while gaara was thinking. It was such a larger room than the one in my rangy apartment! It was probably the size of my whole apartment. My face slightly gaped but then I turned to look at gaara again. He was staring at me like he was thinking something. And by what it was I don't think I would ever be able to understand.
"So...gaara what do you want me to do?" I asked almost to innocently for my taste but that's just the way I speak.
Gaara's face lit up in some kind of smirk but then he dropped it right away as if what he thought wasn't good enough. I sighed softly playing with my ears as I waited...
Gaara:
"I don't have much to do, that's why I tried to get you here so badly." I explained.
"It must be lonely." he said in a small tone. I just nodded. "U-um, G-gaara?" he stuttered. I thought it was so cute. I nodded for him to continue. "May I use your bathroom?" he blushed, I just kept looking at him.
"Yeah. Follow me." I almost grabbed his wrist again, but I saw the marks and decided against it. It was tempting to hold his hand, but i didn't want to freak him out. He shut and locked himself in the bathroom, and I waited patiently, listening for sounds that said he was trying to escape.
Naruto:
Damn this is embarrassing! Why didn't I just go to the bathroom before? Oh yeah because I didn't have to then. I'm using the biggest excuse in the book!
I was about to unbutton my loose jeans but then i remembered the lock. I didn't know what it was but I didn't want gaara to see me. He already saw my ears and that was embarrassing enough. But my tail! Even if it might look small because I have to keep it hidden it's the exact opposite. It's silky and big. Not to mention long. It was just...sort of embarrassing. Gaara was...gorgeous to say in simple terms. And even if sometimes he acted weird as if trying to suppress something I still sort of thought it was interesting.
Finally happy enough I unbuttoned my trousers and unzipped my pants. My tail automatically wiggled free and I stretched almost like a cat. Finally I was able to use the bathroom and flushed it.
Gaara:
I heard the flush and the washing of hands. I stepped away from the door to give him some space, he pulled open the door, and to my surprise, his tail was sticking out of the back end. My head actually tilted to the side, because unlike a neko tail, which I've seen before, the kitsune tail was fluffy and long. Without thinking I reached out to touch it, he yelped and tried to move away, I know the tails are a sensitive area, but I didn't do anything yet. He tried to move away, but that only caused him to tug his tail still in my grip, and I saw tears swim in his eyes. I tried to move closer, but he moved away, pulling against his tail again. After the third time, I pulled on the tail to make him come to me. With a loud yelp he moved closer to me, I wrapped my hands around him in a hug, to try and tell him it's ok. My hand with his tail in it wrapped around his torso, pulling his tail accidentally in a way it normally didn't go, and without warning he bit me on the shoulder.
Naruto:
I didn't even notice anything different when I walked out of the bathroom. But Gaara's expression showed me different. It was...surprise and slight confusion... I think. What was he staring at and why was he so close! Before i knew it the red heads pale hand touched something which made me yelp. Then I knew what it was. My tail. I forgot to tuck it away. No this couldn't be happening! The thing I didn't want him to see! I tried to move away but that only cause his hand to slightly tug my tail. A blush reddened my face. Tails are very sensitive for every anthro. So mine was no exception. This was to embarrassing. I felt like I might cry.
I tried to get away again but it tugged a little more and I yelped again a little louder this time. Then suddenly it wasn't me who tugged. IT was gaara. I walked slowly forward, trying to stop the sensations coming from my tail and then...he hugged me. He hugged me causing me to place my chin on his color bone. I was actually feeling better about him...but then he pulled my tail again, causing me pain instead of any small tingling or pleasure. I need to get away. But his arms are around me and my own arms are trapped.
First biting my lip and then...I bit him. A blush flooded my face and my eyes widened. Gaara seemed to gasp just lightly enough for me to hear him. But at least that made him let go of my tail.
I hurriedly stepped back from him, placing my back against the opposite wall.
"I-I'm so...sorry gaara I..." I still felt as if I would cry and my eyes were widened at his expression
Gaara:
He truly seemed sorry; I leaned against the opposite wall holding my shoulder. my arm didn't bleed normally, it something really sharp, sharper then medal or steel, to break a demons skin, and apparently anthro teeth are that strong. It wasn't bleeding bad, and after I calmed down, I realized it was only self defense. I hadn't realized it would hurt him if I bent his tail that way. And tails are sensitive too so I probably really hurt him. I felt bad, crushed, that the one person who could understand what I've been through, the loneliness, being an outcast, would now hate me forever. I sank to the floor using the wall for support. I cradled my head in my hands, "no I'm sorry." I whimpered. I bet all he wanted to do was get away now, and who was I to stop him?
Naruto:
I stared at him softly. I caused him pain. I actually made him bleed! God I'm the worst. I didn't try to honestly! But then...he sank to the floor. Causing my heart to break. He looked so...broken. Something I usually look like myself. I began to speak when "no I'm sorry." He whispered through his lips causing me a sharp pain stab through my chest. My tail fell in between my legs in nervousness as I took a few small steps closer to gaara. My cheeks blushed as I softly kneeled down in front of him.
"G-Gaara. Don't it was my fault. I'm just...embarrassed. I'm sorry." I bit my lower lip as a nervous habit.
