35. Full Moon Week
Tomoe growled lowly when his father walked in the room with Inari; He was the god of the foxes and had so much experience that every other god had him on speed dial. It was annoying for Tomoe though Because the man was a prankster. Foxes were known to be mischievuos but when put next to Inari?
They weren't that bad.
Inari also had a great knowledge in the world of medicines and check-ups. Which had brought him to Tomoe since the fox had a raging fever of two-hundred and over. For him it was too high also, Humans had a set limit but so did he. His blood was always hot because of his fox-fir ebut right now he was exceeding a dangerous limit.
He could feel it too; His arms were heavy and all he wanted to do was sleep. Plus his kanines where baring into his lip and bit it nervously. He hated doctors; but hey? Who did excatly? The fox squirmed as Ianri looked at him and smiled lightly.
"Hello Kido; I heard your not feeling to well?"
Tomeo rolled his eyes; This was Inari's professional side that he liked to show for the public. Tomoe had known him since he was younger, he was the man that helped at his birth. He just didn't think that Inari would stick around, Mikage later drafted him in ad told him he was Tomoe's god-father in case anything happened to the blond god.
The kitsune would kill himself before go to Ianri's Shrine like house. It had millions of foxes and familiars everywhere; in which all of them hated him because he was a gods son. Tomoe blinked and sighed, his breath was hot and his chest was heavy. For some reason he felt energy and he wanted to release it.. He dug his nails in his bed and hissed lightly..
Inari raised his brow and then looked at Mikage, " How long has he been acting like that?"
Mikage winced and shook his head; unsure himself, " Um.. Since yesterday?"
Inari nodded and whispered something to Mikage; The god nodded and left the room while Inari walked up to Tomoe and checked his ears and breathing. After he was done checking the fox he furrowed his brow in confusion.
"You don't seem to have any flu like symtoms.." He paused and then looked at the fox. Tomoe wanted to shrug away as the god smirked lightly and pointed at his mouth, Could you open your mouth for me, Tomoe?"
The fox blinked but after a few seconds let his mouth move slowly open. He was panting in pain and his body was screaming for sleep.. He felt aweful right now. Tomoe felt inari touch his kanines and wiggle a little; thnehe clucked his tongue and tried not to laugh.
"I see now." He muttered, Leaving Tomoe confused.
Thats when the god pulled out his phone and started to look at the calendar. The fox furrowed his brow until the god chuckled and then looked Tomoe in the eye.
"Have you ever experienced things like this before?"
The fox slowly shook his head in confusion before Iarni chuckled, " Oh they grow so fast!" He fake wailed and then patted Tomoe's head in a humorious way.
"Have you ever heard of Full moon week?" Inari asked as he stood and stretched,
Tomoe shook his head and the god paused as if trying to figure out how to approach this topic without killing Tomoe on the inside. He tapped a finger to his chin before snapping his fingers and looking Tomoe in the eye.
"Every fox goes through it. They're hormones spike at this time. It only happens once a month.. Apparently this is your first time having it." He smirked, " Its when Kitsune get flirty or mate. You choose.."
Tomoe's eyes grew wide and his mouth nearly fell open in shock. Then his face colored before Ianri started to crack up laughing and trying not to hurt tomoe even more than he already was,
" Kido, Its your time of month!" He chuckled as Tomoe turned crimson and his hands shook lightly.
'Oh Crap, No.'
Mikage nodded slowly as Ianri explained, Full Moon Week to him, He got it completely of cousre. It was Tomoe's fox tendicies and the need for attention and loving care. This was the teen first times going through something so embarrassing but Inari was saying not to coddle him.
But Mikage wnated to coddle him.. He looked at Tomoe who was buring his head in a pillow, blushing like someone had told his biggest secret to his dad. Which in way they had and now he wanted to die and throw up whatever he had managed to stomach that day.
"It will make his body sore; He'll be more flirtaious." Inari rattled off quickly, " Its normal; I think he's over reacting, Really." Inari sighed and shook his head as Tomoe sent his a death glare. The room went cold except for Tomoe's high fever and Mikage shuddered.
"I see, So What do I do for him?" Mikage asked lightly as Tomoe again, Blushed and looked away from the adults. He didn't want to talk about this! How come it was happening now? Of all times! He was eighteen! Why now?!
Inari sighed, " Just give some yokai pills for body aches; It will be over in a week.. Then he continue on with his normal life."
Mikage nodded as Inair dug the pills out of his doctor's bag and handed them to the father; Mikage smiled while the other god chuckled and glanced at Tomoe.
"These will help, Just tell me when your in pain -Ok"
"LEAVE ME ALONE!" Tomoe literally screamed. He had in bottled up but he didn't think it would slip out like that; to be honest he was genuinly embarrassed. He wan't expecting this at all and it hit him like a rock. His body was hurting now and his head made him feel light headed. If he fell asleep then maybe this feelings would go away and disappear into a dream.
He moaned slightly when he felt something on his head and Inari clucked his tongue, " His fever is higher than before. He needs sleep; plenty of it.. The fever is getting dangerous for him."
Mikage nodded as Inari packed up his medical supplies and looked at the foxes father; he said something about calling him if anything else happened and then he left. Thats when ikage looked at Tomoe and winced.
"Get some sleep.."
Tomoe shook his head but winced when his vision bounced about; Mikage swayed and the god saw how pale his son went. He sighed heavily and gently pushed him back on the bed; The fox fell back and whimpered as his head pounded in his ears. It hurt like crazy and his ears were tingling with a strange sensation.
As soon as his head hit the pillow he fell asleep. Mikage chuckled lightly to himself and covered his son up with his comforter. The fox whimpered and his tail wrapped around his body as he slept. It was like when he was younger..
The god sighed and then jumped when Nanami knocked on the door, " Is he gonna be okay?"
Mikage looked at her surprised, He didn't think Tomoe would like him telling her that he was going through Full moon Week.. He paused and then smiled, " Yes, Just the flu, I'm afraid."
The girl nodded and looked at Tomoe. The fox whimpered slightly and turned in his sleep; his breathing was heavy and Nanami looked terrified to see him in that condition. Her best friend was struggling.
Mikage sighed and patted her head, " He'll be fine.. Just relax."
The girl nodded but the father paused; He didn't know why he told her that. He was the one that had to relax. Tomoe was ill and would be in a flirtaious mood beyound compare. He didn't know what to do; especially since..
Tomoe had no idea how to flirt..
'Everything is blurry; Like paint of a canvas.. Then it goes black and I am alone. There's metal everywhere and blood trailing from my deeply cut arm. My shoulder hurts and my legs feel like lead. My head is pounding until the canvas returns and my mind continues the cycle.
I can't open my eyes, Everything is bluury or the light hurts. How long have I been asleep? A day? Two? I'm not sure but I feel somthing carressing my arm... Making the blood disappear and wipe away with a simple sweep. Who is it? My mom? No..
She's dead..
So who? It looks familiar; if it is my mom.. Then does that mean my spirit gave in? I don't feel to well; in fact my stomach is turning and my teeth are baring uncontrollably. Its embarrassing.. The moon.. Is it out right now? I can't tell...
Tomeo muttered a few words in his sleep that really scared the person who was patting him lightly,
Gwen sighed as he whimpered and chewed his lip in pain, " M-Mom.. Don't...Die.." He muttered quietly and painfully. The women sighed and patted his arm, giving it a gentle sqeeze.
He whipered again and turned in his sleep; pain went through his body and he hissed loudly. Gwen saw him shrug about and curse..
"How long has he been asleep?"
Mikage looked at the woman and sighed quietly, " A few hours; he should be awake soon."
Gwen sighed and stod slowly; She looked at Mikage and smiled lightly as he glanced at Tomoe. Why was it that those two coudln't get along anymore? It was sad; especailly since they knew how much they cared for each other.
Tomeo moved in his sleep again and Gwen looked at him worried; " I think he'll be waking up soon." She muttered and walked towards the door.
Mikae nodded, " I'll go try to make some soup; I know his favorite flavor.. Be careful at work Gwen. Your hausband can attack any moment,"
The woman nodded and looked at the teeneger, She was more worried about the boys health then her own; but then again.. She knew her daughter was trying to be strong at this time. It had to be hard for them...
It had to be so hard..
Tomoe yawned and blinked when his eyes opened to a dark room. His lamp light was on but that didn't stop him from coming face to face with Nanami. The girl was looking at him with wide, innocent eyes and he shuddered under his covers.
"What are you doing in here?" Tomoe asked a little annoyed.
The girl smiled lightly and sat on the foot of his bed as he sat up and looked at her, " I was told to give you your soup when you woke up."
Tomoe furrowed his brow and rubbed his head, " So you loom over people when they sleep?"
Nanami pouted and shook her head at his sore atittude. He blinked and his vision cleared; he looked at Nanami and paused when his ears flattened to his head and a whine escaped his throat. The teen arched his brow and put a hand over his mouth in confusion..
That was a knew one..
The girl blinked but then sighed as she started to garb his bowl of soup; She smiled and Tomoe blinked. His chest stsarted to heart with his pounding heart and he felt his eyes grow wide; His ears pinned as his tail went to its proper place between his broad legs.
He looked at her and paused, Why was it that he coudln't stop his eyes from slitting and his teeth from pinching his own tongue? He wanted to cant as she neared him and he had a feeling this was from the hormonal inbalance.
He whimpered and tried to look away from her. She was his best friend; but then again.. Inari never said how his hormons would effect him. Nanami was a female, he was a male.. End of story.
The fox felt his ears pin as Nanami neared him and his heart nearly stopped along with his breath. The girl thrust the bowl forward and smiled like a little girl in a candy store, " Here you go TOMOE!" She cheered and Tomoe felt his clawed hands shoot out from under his blanket and to her wrists.
The bowl jiggled and nearly spilled onto the floor; Tomoe set it down quickly; still keeping one hand firmly on Nanami's He pulled her towards him and into his lap; without even thinking clearly.
Nanami looked at him surprised and Tomoe let her stare back into his eyes; They flickered with something wild and it made Nanami shudder in his lap. He felt her move and he grimaced as his hands trailed to her Head; He let his mouth near her ear and his teeth bared slightly.
"Feed it to me.." He muttered slightly. Thats when his mouth clamped shut and he almost gasped at himself. What did he just say? No, NO! This had to be the Full Moon Night! He blushed slightly in response to himself and looked down in shock.
Nanami blinked and then glared at him, " If thats what you wanted you could of just asked!" She sighed in annoyance and with all her innocence in tact; she slurped some of the soup into her mouth and grabbed Tomoe's shirt.
The fox looked at her terified before their mouths clashed together and Nanami's tongue entered Tomoe's mouth. His eyes grew wide in shock as the soup slipped past his lips and he was forced to drink it. The taste reminded him of his fathers cooking and the taste of strawberries. For some reason it was comfprting and he wanted to taste it more...
He moaned at the lack of air and his tail wagged harshly in pleasure. He let his hands grip the girls arms as he pulled her closer to him; their tongues meeting and thrashing in heated bliss. Tomoe moaned and bit lightly on Nanami's bottom lip; deepening the kiss and trying his best not to hurt her.
When Tomoe was sure he had gotten the last of the sweet taste he pulled away and Nanami prepared to give him more. She lifted the bowl to her mouth and the fox felt himself freeze...
He couldn't just keep doing this until the soup was gone; it wasn't right.. He swallowed and looked at her before holding up his hands and whimpering,
" I'm not hungry anymore.. My stomach has twisted from my fever."
Nanami looked at him and put the bowl down; she swallowed the soup in her mouth and then blinked in concern.
"Your not feeling all to well?"
The fox shook his head," I am not.." He muttered; his hair covering his eyes and shading his face in the lamplight. He looked at her slightly and tried to breath out with what dignity he had left as a freind. He didn't want to use his hormon's on Nanami or anyone of that matter!
He just wanted this to pass silently... He cursed and turned his back on Nanami in shame, " I'm pretty tired right now.." Tomoe muttered quietly; more to himself than to Nanami.
The girl pouted and then made her way to the other side of the bed where he coudl see her; He looked up at her and then bristled when she lifted the covers and climbed in beside him. She laid down and looked at him with innocent eyes.
"Just like when we were younger, Right Tomoe?" She whispered and smiled as she brushed a peice of hair out of his eyes..
He blinked and then sighed. Tomoe nodded slightly and looked at her with wide innocent eyes; They both started to nod off on their own... Sleeping peacefully.
Yeah, It was like they were when they were younger; but...
They were older now..
