A Fox With A Frozen Heart Chapter 10: It Begins, a yu yu hakusho fanfic

It Begins

It had been a few weeks since that talk and Yoko had kept to his word about making the demons take in the team and making sure he would keep his anger in check. Also, believe it or not, he also wouldn't carry Nakada to his bed at night so that was a bonus. (Though some would say the anger part was the bonus but that wasn't for her. Think about it, if he carried her to his bed and he was angry…not a good thing.) At the moment they were walking through the seventh swamp not at all liking the smell. Nakada had her hand covering her nose, as did all the rest of the group…then she cracked, "THAT IS IT!" Everyone looked at her afraid, even Yoko was a little scared as he stepped back from the sudden out burst. Nakada took her hairclip bag and took out eighteen triangle shaped bandannas and a bottle of sweet scented perfume, "I hope none of you are allergic to perfume," she warned as she sprayed the perfume on the bandannas. She passed it on to everyone and they tied it around their faces and they sighed with relief when they smelled the perfume and couldn't smell the swamp.

Yoko looked at her and smiled under the bandanna at the ningen onna who was putting away the perfume and attached the bag to her hair when it turned back into a hairclip, "And I have issues?" He asked, "Why didn't you do this in the first seven swamps?"

She looked at him and smiled right back at him while they continued walking, "It didn't bother me then. But one more swamp, and around twenty more nerves gone in a snap. Usually it is only my brother who can do that…or you," she added covering her mouth, under the bandanna, a little when she said that. Yoko looked at her, when he realized what she said and he laughed a little as well.

In the middle of the group

"You know," April began to say to the rest of the team Kuronue and Falser, "I think they are actually starting to like each other."

They looked ahead and saw the two laughing a little, "That, or the perfume has gotten to them," Falser suggested a little creped out that Yoko was actually laughing a real laugh, "He has never laughed that way before."

"Well my guess he has never met a girl like Nakada before," Sophie said staring at the two. They all nodded and continued to walk on.

Later on at night

When they finally settled down for the night, they made a campfire and sat around it. Nakada remembered the first time they had done this as she looked around. No one was running around being chased by demons or being tied with their wrists behind their back. April was sitting closely to Falser and he had his arms wrapped around her smiling as he held her close. Coming to think about it…he was the only one who hadn't taken part in the chase. She looked at Kuronue and Jennah and saw that they were holding each other as they looked at the fire. Jennah was laying her head on his chest holding him close while he held her close laying his head on hers.

Finally she looked at Yoko who was just staring at the fire with a blank stare. He would occasionally look up and she knew he was looking at the other couples. She sighed and sat a little closer to him, so that if he wanted to he could wrap his arm around her. He looked at her for a second as she looked at the fire burning. She saw him lift his hand a very little bit but then he placed it back down unsure and looked at the fire. I hate it when men do this. Why is it that men always have to be the same? She sighed at this and remembered what she had learned about beggins.

They're really wasn't much but what she did find out was rather surprising. Like there were rarely any males in the beggin race, but if you did see one and he fell in love with you, he would be with you for life. When you died he would die as well. Also they would suck up a fertilized egg from the womb of their mate and he would carry the child instead of the women. That would make life so much easier for a woman. She thought with a smile but it disappeared, I haven't finished the book the bag gave me, so I wonder what else I will learn. It doesn't say what will happen to a male and a female beggin though. I guess that since there are so few males, people would think they would me more interesting then the female population.

Yoko looked at her and saw that she was a little tired and when he looked at the rest of the group he saw that they were all tired as well. He stood up and looked around, and when he had gotten everyone's attention he spoke, "Lets get some sleep tonight and we will continue tomorrow. Every demon take one human into his tent and for the ones that have the girls…I expect them to still be virgins tomorrow," there was al little chuckle around the group even the members of the team had to giggle a little as well.

Yoko smiled, but in a way he was serious as he and Nakada walked into his tent. Nakada was about to resume her place on the floor where she had placed some furs for a bed, but before she sat down Yoko took her hand, "I want to talk to you for a second." She nodded and he led her to his bed and they sat on it looking at each other with Yoko still holding her hands and looking at them as if trying to figure out what to say. He looked at her for a second and then looked down, "I am trying to get better with my anger Nakada," he began in a calm voice and she knew what this was about.

"Yes, I know that, but there has been nothing happening around here to prove that your heart won't turn back to it's original beat when you do get angry." She responded to his unasked question as she leaned over a little to try and see his eyes.

He looked at her and then held her close and she did the same, "Do I have to wait until we get out of this cursed forest for you to be with me?" He asked, his chin lying over her shoulder and his eyes closed holding her close.

She drew back a little, or at least tried but he held her closer and pressed his eyes to her shoulder. She sighed as she stroked his hair and tilted her head sideways so it leaned against his, "Yoko, you have done so many evil things and enjoyed doing those things and your heart reflects that. You take pleasure in other peoples pain, and you have yet to understand it isn't your anger that turns your heart evil. When you are angry then, it is almost like a door opening to the evil. You have to learn to regret what you have done and hate it."

He pulled away looking at Nakada and stroked her face, "How do I do that Nakada," he asked looking her, his eyes pleading her to tell him how.

She stroked some of his hair away from his face and looked into his eyes, her own filling up with tears, "I don't know Yoko. I was raised in a way that was different from the way you were raised in. But I do know that sometime in this forest you will regret."

He saw a tear fall from her eye onto cheek and he wiped it away and looked at her, "Then, can I at least kiss you so it will be like a promise?"

She smiled and shook her head, "What am I going to do with you? You do know that if I let you kiss me it will only make the temptation grow?"

He smirked, "I can control it…but can you? You have to admit I am not that bad of a kisser compared to other boys you have probably kissed."

She smiled and then looked down at the ground then looked up at him with one eye closed, "Can I tell you a secret that really isn't a secret but still it is a secret to me and it would really surprise you and make you wonder why it is a secret?"

He shook his head and held a clawed hand to his temple and then looked at her, "Uh…yes?" he answered but not sure if it was the right answer.

She looked at him and smiled, "You were my first," he looked at her surprised and she continued to smile with a blush on her face, "It's kind of funny really, you, the thief, stole my first kiss," she said with a smile and looked at him. "The only man I ever kissed on the lips was my dad, and my brother to freak out my mom. But that was a family kiss not that kind of kiss. Also I have had only one boyfriend and that wasn't serious…the rest were blind dates and I didn't kiss any of them…okay the boyfriend was on the cheek but not the lips."

He smiled, "I never would have guessed," he said and then looked at her, "So about my question."

She looked at him and rolled her eyes moved in close to him and pressed her lips to his. He was surprised at first and his eyes went wide but he slowly closed them. He wrapped his arms around her and kissed her back as they laid down on the bed. Nakada placed her hands on his chest clutching his top that he hadn't taken off yet.

They broke apart both, too sleepy to do anything as Yoko took the fur and wrapped them both in it. Nakada smiled a little and muttered before she went to sleep loud enough for him to hear, "Hentai."

He smiled and held her close, "Through and through," he smirked as he held her close.

With the team

Everyone was outside of Yoko's tent, each trying to get the other to go and look at what was happening inside. April was out voted and went to go look to see what was going on inside. She quietly walked over to the tent and opened the flap a little to look inside. What she saw was Nakada and Yoko in each others arms and she smiled as she turned and left. The whole team looked at her, this included Kuronue and Falser, and she smiled as she said, "I do believe we have a couple in there."

The next morning

Nakada was the first to wake up and she saw that she was in the arms of Yoko. She looked up at him not at all mad and she saw his sleeping face. She smiled as she moved some of his hair away from his face. I won't get mad at you this time. She said in her head and slowly began to get away from him and out of the bed. She took the book she had been reading from her bag and went outside, away from the camp to finish reading the last few pages.

A few minutes later

Yoko woke up a little cold and moved to bring Nakada closer to him, but she wasn't there. He sat up and looked around for her but couldn't find her anywhere. He sighed and looked at the ground as he sat on the edge of his bed. She's probably angry with me again. He thought as he began to remember what happened last night.

Flash Back

"I am trying to get better with my anger Nakada," he began in a calm voice and she knew what this was about.

End Flashback

How am I supposed to do that? He thought as he wrapped his arms around his stomach as it began to hurt a little. Damn cramps. He thought as he leaned over wincing a little but ignored the pain for a little while. How am I supposed to regret and hate what I did? I killed many humans and demons for the pure joy of it. How am I supposed to turn that around and start hating it? He thought about this some more before he noticed that his cramps were getting worse as he laid down on the bed and curled up. He soon realized that he wasn't having any kind of stomach cramp at all. What's…happening…to…me?

With Nakada

Nakada was finishing up her book when she read the last part.

For the female side of the species to have their young they must need a male counterpart. The female lures the male to her lair or nest and makes love to the male she has captured. It doesn't care much about what happens to the male unlike the male side of it's species but in some way does care if it gives the male her last egg or rarely eggs. When the female gives away her last egg or is killed the child or children are then not able to grow. Not until the male that carries the child kisses another women three times and she accepts it or kisses him. After the third time they have kissed the child begins to grow, slowly at first. It gathers energy from the male and then the womb that the beggin had given the male begins to grow and mature so it can hold the child. The child then grows and then is born in nine days after the third kiss. If the male has more than one egg than the time period is double or tripled. This is both painful and will only seem the male is having cramps at first. Though the pain will grow and not stop until…

Nakada continued reading and then got up shivering as a chill ran up her spine. She stood up and ran to the camp. Everything seemed to be fine but, the chill came again and she ran into Yoko's tent to see him in a tight ball of pain.

With Yoko

Yoko didn't hear Nakada enter the tent as he kept on trying to understand why his stomach hurt. He felt a presence beside him and he looked up to see Nakada. She wrapped her arms around him holding him close and brought him into a sitting position, "Yoko come on you have to get up."

Yoko's Pov

"I…can't," I protested hunching over from the pain that didn't seem to want to go away.

"Yoko please, you have to get up…I'll help you," she said as she tried to help me up. I got up as best as I could and a mirror appeared, but it didn't show our reflection. Instead it showed the room of a house that looked like some kind of huge bedroom. I stared at it and Nakada pulled me with her and we easily went through the mirror. I crouched over kneeling on the ground as I felt more pain and Nakada kept on urging me to the bed. Finally, some how we got there and I could feel Nakada take off my shirt but I barely even noticed, I was almost unconscious due to the pain. My eyes were tightly closed I made my teeth clinched. I made a grunting sound from the pain. My hands held onto the sheets of the bed as the pain got worse and I gave a cry of frustration, feeling like the pain in my stomach would never end. I wrapped my arms around my stomach again but I already knew that wasn't going to work. Then I felt Nakada holding me close in the bed, making me lay on my side.

"Hold me close Yoko," I heard her say as I felt her wrap her arms around my waist. I looked at her and saw that she had taken her shirt and bra off. She was completely topless and holding me close to her.

"No Nakada," I said, "I-I can't without hurting you in the process and I have done enough of that already."

"If you don't Yoko you will die," she said and I stared at her for a second. She looked up at me and I saw her pleading to me with her eyes. For a second I noticed that her eyes weren't covered and I couldn't help but stare into those ice blue pools filled with worry, "Please Yoko," she pleaded for the first time.

I slowly unwrapped my arms from my stomach and held her close making sure not to hurt her too much. I felt her hold me closer and I did the same as the pain in my stomach worsened. I dug my face into her hair squeezing her but she didn't seem to notice as she continued talking to me, saying that everything was going to be all right and the pain would end soon. I kept on hoping that the next second it would end but another second gone along with another. I opened my eyes as I lifted my head from her hair to look at her for a second. She looked at me as well as she held me closer to her. I clinched my teeth and closed my eyes, I wanted to scream in pain but I couldn't as I grunted.

Then all of a sudden I felt someone's lips on mine. I opened my eyes to see Nakada had lowered my head and had moved up onto the bed a bit and was now kissing me. I couldn't feel the pain for a moment as I closed my eyes and held her close, placing a hand gently on the back of her head and kissed her back. We broke for a second for some air and I looked at her as she laid her head on my chest. It was then that I realized that she had her ear right over my heart. I moved away a bit so she wouldn't hear it and she looked at me for a second as if wondering why I had done that.

"No Nakada, my heart will hurt you remember?" I asked and she smiled.

She laid her head over my heart again as she continued to smile, "Just don't get mad and your heart won't hurt me or my ears." I looked at her and smiled as I held her close as well, my chin on her shoulder fitting snugly into it as if it was made for that purpose. It was then that I realized that she fit perfectly against my body as if we were both made for each other. The way I could lay my chin on her shoulder and hold her close while she wrapped her arms around me, placing her hands on my shoulder blades and lay her head against my chest…I smiled as I thought about that. She was shorter than me but she still seemed to fit against my body.

I turned my eyes to look at her and I could faintly see a smile on her lips and I smiled as well. I held her close, not wanting to ever let her go and ruin this moment. It was then that I realized that my stomach didn't hurt and again I smiled while still holding her close.

Well another chapter and some new reviews! Yeah! In answer to the riddle Shoulder Monkey it is really a bad joke, the answer is, you put a flicker inbetween his legs!
