"Ok class keep up the good work and have fun this weekend" Miss Alice said as she dismissed the class, but kept Alisha be hide.

"Alisha have you seen tora today"

"No I haven't miss"

"Well if you see him hope he is alright"

"Me to, ok bye miss" she said as she left, as she walked home deep in her thoughts only to be brought out when she heard a low growl.

"Whose there" she said realising that she was that she was in a small field, then she heard it again from behide her.

"Xander is that you" she said looking behind her but no one was there, so she turned back and ran face first into a furry chest.

"Xander are you seriously trying to scare me" she said snuggling into his chest.

"Whose xander" the voice said causing her to look up in surprise, if she thought that xander was huge, he was a few inches taller and bigger. The owner had golden brown fur with black stripes with his chest, hands and feet white, emerald eyes, long black hair that nearly touched the floor with gold stripes decorated in it. His huge arms crossed against his chest as he looked down at her "and what are you doing in a big scary place like this with no one to protect you, baby doll"

Alisha didn't know what to say, the voice was familiar but it didn't match the body at all"who are you"

"Don't worry about that, just know that one way or another" he said stroking her cheek "you will find out" he said before running off into the forest leaving her confused as she continued her walk home.

"Xander I'm home" she called out as she stepped inside the house, and went to his room and knock on the door. "Xander are you in there" she said as she opened the door.

"Yeah, just taking a shower" he called from inside the bathroom "you ok"

"Yeah but can I ask you something"

"Sure"

"Are there any more of you?"

"apart from my dad, not that I know of why" he said coming out of the shower, wearing a pair of black shorts leaving the rest of his strong body on display with his towel over his shoulder, his raven hair still wet from being washed.

"Well because I saw one today and he kind of look like you" she said as stood behind him as he sat on the chair in front of the dresser "can I comb you hair please"

"Hmm sure but I have to give something back when your done" he said handing her the brush, as she began to brush his hair, the silky yet think mass seemed to dry with stroke of the brush.

"So what are we doing tonight" she asked him causing him to laugh as she looked at her.

"Well baby girl that's for me to know and for you to find out tonight" he said putting his arm around her waist causing her to giggle.

"You like to hold me don't you" she said as he sat her on his lap.

xander couldn't help himself but he found himself wanting almost craving her touch and affection, love was not strange to him but when it's not felt for a long time caused him to feel a loneliness that he wouldn't wish on his worst enemy, and now that it seemed to finally come to him in Alisha, he didn't want to let her go, they both wanted some else to love them so why couldn't the love each other. He loved the feel of her skin on his and her scent was so sweet just like her. He didn't care what anyone else thought, if she would accept him the way he was, not caring about the way he looked, he wouldn't mind fighting for her till his last breath.

"Yeah I do" he said playing with her hair "do you have a problem with that"

"No you overgrown kitten I don't mind you hugging, kissing and holding me for no reason" she said clearly in a sarcastic voice

"I know you don't mind, why do you think i do it silly" he said holding her closer "you wanna go get ready for me"

"For you? Who are you" she said getting of his lap and walked toward the bathroom, as he got off the chair and for the first time in front of her got down on all fours, and his eyes seemed to darken.

"I'm the guy, who although cares about you very much" he said circling around her "doest mind showing you how much of a bad boy i can really be, cause i might be nice to you and show you my nice side" he said backing her up into the bathroom door "but you have not tamed me" he said before giving her a quick kiss before leaving the room so that she could prepare in peace.

Alisha didn't know what to say or think as she entered the shower, she care about him a lot and he made her feel safe and loved but she felt so confused with the way he acted, she felt like she didn't know if he wanted her as a girlfriend or for something leaning towards the more physical side, she liked the way he would hold her at night and now she didn't even mind him kissing her and found herself kissing back, she found herself liking his presence around her cause it make her feel safe and secure. She had never felt such strong emotions towards some one but the question on her mind as she came out of the shower.

What kind of love did he want from her?
