Chapter 8: Love

"Yes, Toboe?" Kiba asked.

"I think I…." Toboe started. This is so hard…what if he doesn't feel the same way?

"Toboe, you can tell me anything."

"IthinkthatIloveyou," Toboe said fast.

"Bless you," Kiba replied, not understanding what the pup had said. "Can you try using separate words?" Kiba let out a small laugh.

"Sorry," Toboe said, blushing. "I think that I…that I l-l-love…you…Kiba…" The pup stared at the lake, not wanting to look at the white wolf. Here it comes…

"Toboe…," Kiba said, taken back a bit by what the pup had told. I guess I can tell him how I feel now. More tears came to Toboe's eyes, though it seemed he would be out of them. The pup stood up and started to walk away, hurt by what had happened. Kiba grabbed Toboe before he could leave. "Toboe, I…I love you too…"

"Really?" Toboe asked, tears fell but in happiness.

"Yes, Toboe, really," Kiba replied, pulling the little one closer to him.

"Kiba," Toboe said, more tears falling, he was short of breath. So happy that Kiba felt the same. The pup leaned against Kiba.

"Yes?" Kiba asked, giving Toboe a light kiss on the cheek.

"I'm so happy," Toboe managed to say. Kiba and the pup laid down next to the lake. Kiba placed his arm around Toboe.

"I know," Kiba replied, placing a soft kiss on the young one's lips. Toboe placed his arms on Kiba's shoulders.

"Please don't ever let go of me," Toboe begged. Kiba put his hands on Toboe's hips and pulled him easily towards him.

"I won't," Kiba replied. This seems like paradise now. Kiba kissed the pup again.

"Well this is interesting," Hige said, as he walked up to the two lovers.
