foxling: Hi every one! I know I haven't gotten any reviews yet(when I started to write this chapter) but I'm not going to get much of a chance to update as much as I would like. My mom's coming home from a trip from Philly and I basically don't get the computer much when she's around. so bear with me if my updates are a bit slow. And yes I will give my fans what they want and give you some lemony goodness, just so long as my mom doesn't find out I'm doing this. I accidentally left one of my notebooks out and it was the one that had a story of mine in it called Juxtapose: to place side by side. this story was my undoing into having quite a lecture about 'how inappropriate it was for a young woman to be writing crap about two guys having sex.' I tell you I had NEVER been so embarrassed in my whole life! So since then my mom's kept a close watch on me when I'm on the net and I don't want to go through the embarrassment of being caught again.

Kurama: Well then I guess you'll just have to stop posting! Yay I'm free of the torment you put me through and the embarrassment of others knowing what you make the guys do to me! WHOOT!

foxling: Not so fast Red! Even if I don't post the stories I still have kagess's offer to do it for me. So either way your gonna get screwed XD

Kurama: T.T Well at least you can't do anything more to me.

Yomi: Don't count on that.

Kurama: What?

Kuro: She could make you the total slut of an all boys boarding school.

foxling: tempting but too close to the idea of another story.

Yomi: Well how about he...uh, well he could...I got nothun T T

Kuro: What about him being a belly dancer?

foxling: They're are already a couple of stories with kurama being some sort of dancer. And no I'm not doing a band fic.

Yomi: Damn.

Kurama: Will you guys stop trying to give her ideas!!

foxling: ...! Alright Kurama they'll stop. So how 'bout instead we let the readers give me ideas?

Kurama: What? NO!?

foxling: Why not ? Since you're obviously against ME trying to figure out what to do to you, we'll let the FANS decide what they would like to happen to you. BTW I don't do so well on NC fics so none of those, and whatever idea you give you better remember that Kurama will be uke in any and all of my fics. And the ideas will be put into action after I'm done posting my 40+ stories.

Kurama: YOU CAN'T DO THIS TO ME!!

foxling: The Hell I CAN'T! I wouldn't be writing if I couldn't! Enough of this Just read don't forget to leave reviews. sorry to any one who doesn't have an account I forgot to disable my "No Anonymous reviews". SORRY!!

XXX Chapter 2: You're not the first XXX

Kurama woke feeling strangely warm. He opened his eyes only to be greeted with the sun's bright rays shining onto his face. Feeling unusually comfortable he groaned and rolled onto his other side. He snuggled closer to his warm pillow which had let out it's own groan. Kurama's eyes snapped open only to be met with a bare chest. He followed the chest to a neck and then finally to the face of the handsome fox. Youko had looked so cold and unfeeling the other day and now here he was looking so peaceful. Kurama wanted to just lay there and take in this new expression. Then it hit him, this was the same demon who nearly jumped him in the bath, who had tried to hand feed him like a dog, who had drugged him. The realization that he had been drugged struck a cord of fear within him. He silently removed himself from the bed taking the comforter with him.

Youko woke when the sudden chill of the morning air bombarded his bare skin with it's icy grip. He reached for the comforter that sometimes slipped down to his waist only to feel the silky fabric of his boxers. He opened his eyes and scanned the bed for the missing blanket. His search, however, ended when he heard a soft sob from the far corner of his room. Looking in the direction of the sound he saw that Kurama was huddled in the corner with the comforter wrapped tightly around him as if to protect him from the world. Youko rubbed the sleep from his eyes and slipped quietly out of the bed and walked over to the shuddering redhead.

"You alright?" Youko said sounding sincere as he put a hand on his shoulder reassuringly. Kurama jumped at the unexpected contact and looked up at the fox. Youko could see that his eyes were red and puffy signs that he had been crying. Kurama didn't strike him as one to cry but within the last 24 hours Kurama has proved that he was full of surprises. Kurama tried to wipe away the tears to try and cover the fact he was crying. "Why should you care if I'm alright?" his voice was shaky from the stress of crying and he tried fruitlessly to stop his tears from spilling forth. Youko looked at him confused and silently asked for an explanation. "You got what you wanted from me so why would you care!?" Youko still looked at him confused.

"What the Hell are you talking about?"

"The only reason men drug me is so that I won't fight back and you made it clearly obvious that you desire my body!" Kurama fell into another crying spell and this time he didn't try to stop it. It was then that a light turned on in Youko's head and he realized what Kurama was saying.

"You think I raped you?!" he said incredulously. True he showed he was interested in his body but his actions were drawn from his instincts of being around another Forest Child. Or as he liked to be called, a child of Inari.

"What the Hell other reason would you have to drug me?!" He yelled. Youko laid his ears against his head to shield them from the sudden volume.

"OK, I want this understood now. When I have sex with someone we both get down to our skins and stay that way into the morning. Plus if I did give it to you up the ass, you wouldn't be walking for at least half a day." He said this with a tone of irritation. Yes he was a bit prissy, but he loathed it when someone accused him of forcing himself on them. If he had sex with someone he made sure that not only were they consensual but they enjoyed it so much it was memorable. His reputation as a fox would be in jeopardy if one person escaped him without having a permanent memory of who had given them such pleasure. So it was absolutely impossible for him to bed someone who wouldn't even remember it. He WAS notorious as both a bandit and a lover.

"How can I believe you when you tried to jump me YESTERDAY!" he said, his voice starting to clear.

"How about this; I give you a Chastity Orb and then you believe me?" He got up and headed for the door.

"It wouldn't do any good." Youko stopped and turned to Kurama."Even if you didn't violate me, the orb would still turn as black as ink." he wiped away the last remnants of his tears and looked to the floor, too distraught to look the demon in the eye. He heard Youko approach him and saw him kneel in front of him. "You would not be the first man to take advantage of my smaller, human frame."

"Kurama I know that my word means little to you, but I swear upon my honor as a thief and as your kin I did not force myself on you nor will I ever." Youko sounded more serious than he had since they met. Kurama stared at him in shock. 'When did he find out?' Kurama had done everything he could to hide his gift, but some how Youko had found out about him. But how in the- Wait did he say 'as your kin'?

"When you said 'as my kin' you mean-"

"Yes. I am a Forest Child as well. That is why I jumped you the other day."

"Youko, I-"

"Tut, tut, tut, not another word. What I want you to do is to get back in bed," he took hold of Kurama's hand and walked him over to the bed, "and relax." Kurama allowed himself to be led to the bedside feeling that he could trust the fox to some extent now. Kurama didn't argue, in fact he was rather relieved at the idea of some extra sleep. Whatever pollen Youko had used must not be completely out of his system and he still felt groggy. Youko untangled him from the comforter and placed it back on the bed properly with Kurama situated comfortably under it. Youko smiled warmly at the little human, "I'll have someone bring up your breakfast."

"I'm still not going to eat out of your hands." Kurama said doing his best to look like a stubborn child with his most adorable pouting face.

"Kukuku. You'll have the day to yourself. So you may want to get acquainted with your new home. You know look around and explore a little, that is if you want to." He said with a cheerful smile before leaving.

Youko was true to his word and gave Kurama the day to himself to try to calm down and except that this was his new home. When Youko did enter his company he was gentle and sincere, some thing that Kurama thought at first was impossible for the fox. But he did not complain. He was actually relieved to know that they shared a rare bond with each other. It was almost impossible for one Forest Child to find and meet another of their own since most were killed for their strange abilities. But Kurama found out, by conversation with Youko, that demons actually found it a great honor to have a Child of Inari born into their family. Unlike the humans who thought it disgraceful and unnatural.

Kurama took his time taking in his new home and found that the cave entrance was just a ploy to dissuade pursuers and nosy travelers. It turns out that the manor was not within a cave but was secluded in a hidden valley impossible for travelers to find. Kurama spent a majority of the day exploring the valley and even found an even more secluded part of the valley that housed a vast and beautiful garden. With such beautiful and exotic plants Kurama felt quit at home in the little hide away.

"Well it seems you've been exploring more than I thought you would." Kurama knew that deep rich voice belonged to Youko.

"Did you grow this place?" he asked fairly relaxed in Youko's presence.

"Yeah this is where I grew my first plant." Youko sat next to Kurama who had been lounging on the grass. Kurama looked at the fox as he seemed to get lost in his thoughts. He looked like he was thinking about pleasant memories that had long since passed. "This valley once belonged to my clan. Now it is mine and mine alone." he spoke rather somberly and Kurama could detect a hint of sadness in his voice.

"What happened to them?" Kurama sat up so that he caught the fox's attention.

"There... was a massacre. My father had spoken out against a demon nobleman and his plans for stealing the land of other clans. The noble didn't take to well to his rebellion and annihilated our clan before we grew too strong to stop him. It goes without saying I was the only survivor, but it was shear luck I lived. I knew that I was supposed die that day with the rest of my clan. But-" his eyes narrowed at whatever he was remembering "- one of the Noble's soldiers couldn't bring himself to kill a defenseless cub in cold blood. So he feigned carrying a corpse and took me away from the slaughter. He told me to run as far as I could and to stay away. For years I grew with the intense hate I felt for the noble who took my family and my home from me. So I started gathering whatever men would follow under me and we became bandits. Eventually we gathered enough strength to challenge that bastard and his soldiers and we took back the manor. I had made up my mind that we would leave no survivors and we didn't. In the end that coward begged me for his life. He graveled at me feet like some street mongrel, but I showed him the same mercy he showed my clan. None."

Kurama looked at Youko to speechless to say anything. 'And I thought I had it rough.'

"So what about you?" Kurama snapped out of his daze at Youko's sudden question. "What's the story of you and your family?"

Kurama looked away unable to look at him. "I'd… really not say. I trust you to some extent but not enough to reveal my secrets to you." Kurama said trying to push aside the memories of his family. Although calling them that sounded like some sick, twisted joke.

Youko decided not to pry and looked up at the sky. "Well it's getting late. We better get going if we want to eat."

Youko and Kurama ate in their room as they had the night before. They didn't speak one word to each other, not knowing what to say. Kurama Knew of Youko's past and didn't want to upset him by saying something wrong, while Youko was still trying to figure out the human before him. Kurama seemed to be shrouded by secrets he had long since tried to bury. And it didn't seem like he was going to divulge them any time soon.

When they were done eating they both changed into their nightwear. Kurama's temper had flared when Youko said he was still to sleep in his bed. Kurama had refused to do so without a fight and had to be sedated once more. Youko had curled up beside him spooning their bodies. He let a smile grace his lips as he watched Kurama sleep. 'At least you haven't lost your spark. It would be disappointing if you had already been tamed. But in time I will break that fiery spirit of yours and make you mine.' Youko drifted off to sleep content with the thought of making the human bend to his will, and maybe... even make him fall in love with him.

XXXXXXXXXXX

Well it looks like I may have to change the genre of the sorry to romance. Yes I know I'm a total Yaoi romance addict.

But it's just so hard to find a story with these two actually being in love and one not forcing the other into a relationship.

By the way thank you to Silver Vulpine and Chaseha-Wing for correcting me on my little error.

I am so sorry! I'm new here and haven't quit got the hang of things and I'm still learning how the system works.

Well thanks again and don't forget to review.
