Tsume Fell In Love
The grey wolf swallows hard, trying to shove unwanted thoughts from his mind as he watches the hardly subtle movements of the now female white wolf. Kiba, however, is blissfully unaware of the attention she's getting. At least for the moment, the powdery female is far more interested in the slightly dazed and beginning to become rather uncomfortable Hige. The poor vexed fellow had realized a bit earlier that the first couple buttons of his companion's blouse were undone, and it's making him somewhat....anxious.
Tsume had noticed the open buttons as well but, unlike Hige, was considerably more interested. "Tsume!" The grey wolf suddenly finds himself wrapped in a tight hug, blue eyes gazing up into his. "Yeah," he manages, uncertain how to respond. "That silly Hige won't let me give 'im a kiss. Will you?" Tsume's eyes go wide at the question, as he comes to an understanding of just how female Kiba's become in such a short time. "I, uh...." "Puh-leez," she begs, voice quavering on the verge of tears once more.
Afraid of invoking another mood swing, potentially back to the vicious, angry one, Tsume swallows. "O...okay." Satisfied, Kiba presses her lips softly against his for a short moment. Then she pulls away, smiling slyly. "Thank you," she says coyly. (OMG! Kiba's flirting w/ Tsume! What the friggin' hell am I on?) Tsume just stands there a moment, trying to come to his senses. "Yo...you're welcome." She beams, then bounces back to the stunned Hige. "Tsume? Are you all right?" He shakes his head, then turns to the smaller wolf beside him. "Yeah, I'm fine."
Toboe glances over to the female, now tugging on Hige's sleeve and not looking too happy about something. "I'm not sure we can put up with Kiba like this." He looks up at the older wolf, "what do you think?" Not really sure himself, Tsume shakes his head, searching for an answer. "Don't worry 'bout it pup. She's just gonna take some gettin' used to." But Toboe notices the vague uncertainty in Tsume's voice, "I guess...."
The pair move over to where Kiba is pestering Hige, "come on Hige, why not?" The tan wolf sighs in exasperation, "because I've already got a girlfriend, that's why not." His snowy friend gives him an irritated look, "you like that dog better than me?" Instantly realizing what might happen if he says yes, Hige alters his answer, hoping to calm the female and still get the point across. "It's not that at all Kiba. It's just I....I liked Blue before I even met you."
He smiles then, having thought of an interesting idea to not only save his skin, but also have a little fun. "Besides, what do ya want me for? Wouldn't ya rather have Tsume? I mean look at me, I'm useless 'cept my nose. And my pride, well, I'm wearin' a collar like a dog aren't I?" Tsume glares at Hige, while Kiba studies him a minute. "You're right." "I am? I mean, course I am." Kiba continues, "I don't really think you're all that useless, but Tsume is stronger, even if he is a little smaller. And what self respecting wolf would wear a collar?" (Hige would. Damn Kiba, she's outta control. What'll she do next, kiss Tsume again? Wait a sec.....that's not a bad idea!)
She either doesn't notice or chooses to ignore Hige grumbling under his breath. "Not to mention, while he's not as cute, Tsume is better looking." (Ane, tryin' to get Kiba away from Hige here. Pleaz ignore all Hige bashin'. I really do love him.) "You're right snowflake." Hige playfully ruffles her hair. "Snowflake? You do still like me!" She hugs him tightly. (What the...? The female Kiba likes her nickname? Now I'm lost.) "Ahem, are you two done yet?" Tsume's starting to get more than a little annoyed with the previous topic of conversation. "Done with what Tsume," Kiba asks, playing dumb and innocent. (And w/ Tsume's head)
He takes a deep breath, then sighs. "Can we just get going?" "Oh, okay!" Tsume starts to walk off and Kiba attaches herself to his right arm, Toboe right behindthem and Hige a short but safe distance back. "Tsume?" "What?" He turns to look at her. (Ane, shouldn't of done that. It's one of her traps.) Kiba promptly kisses him again. "Love you." The grey wolf turns his attention ahead of him again, blushing slightly and VERY uncomfortable about the whole situation. Unfortunately, the resilient female refuses to be detached.
Chaos: Tsume won't admit it, but he is startin' to fall in love with the new Kiba. You'll see it more in later chapters. I am bringin' Blue into this later. Whether she and Kiba will clash or become friends I have yet to decide. Anyway Toboe next. Hope ya like it, pleaz review and WHAT THE HELL happened to all the people reviewing 'Meet Me In The Middle'? Is it 'cause I upped the rating? Chpt. 4's not that bad I swear. It's all implied, really. Besides chpt. 5 is soooo cuute! ARE PUPPIES NOT GOOD ENOUGH FOR YOU PEOPLE?! Chaos sobs 'cause no one likes her other ficcie no mores On a brighter note, I'm starting a Tsume fic. Yet another serious one. But I think you'll like it. Bye bye!
