57. Sobo Is Coming Over

Tomoe moaned as he laid in bed; the light from the window was seeping through driving him insane. His head hurt and he knew exaclt why. Why did he know? He had that tell all fever again and his body was achy.

The white hiared teen whimpered, not wanting this to happen again. He HATED this thing that happened to all kitsunes. In fact this was so embarrassing that he wanted to hide his face and not say anything.

The fox wanted to growl at the pain in his body.. but what made him freak out more then anything? When he turned in his bed and saw Nanami sleeping beside him. Her hair fanned against her beautiful face; but she looked tired and restless. As if she had a nigthmare and had gotten up in the middle of the night looking for someone to be with..

But this still freaked Tomoe out..

His eyes grew wide and all you heard outside his door was a, ' WHAT THE-!?" And then a thud as he fell out of his bed and crashed into the floor.

Mikage looked at Gwen and leaned against the sounter as he held his coffee cup; he looked at her but was surprised as she sighed heavily and pointed to a rather frightened Mizuki. Mikage didn't know why he was scared or freaked out.. maybe he was afraid of being kicked out?

But after hearing the snakes siutaion the god wasn't going to do that to him. That would be cruel and believe of not, Mikage was not a cruel person. He just made decisions that weren't to wise. Most of them concerning his own son.

He winced, Tomoe woudl be up soon but he didn;t have the guts to say, ' I'm home!' Not anymore.. The fox wouldn't look at him right now; he knew he wouldn't. It scared him to think so but the god knew it was true..

" Mizuki you can stay, " Mikage smiled, " I was just surprised thats all.'

The white haired teen relaxed but he looked down and swallowed, " What if my mother..'

" Then you'll be adopted. MIkage said rather sternly as the snake blinked and looked at him shocked. The snakes sleeves hung loosly on his shoulders but he said nothing as he smiled and tried to hold back his happiness.

Thats when there was a bang on the floor and the snake looked at the roof; Mikage chuckled,

" Tomoe's up..' He sighed out and pulled the orange jiuce. Mizuki arched his brow and paused..

Did Tomoe-kun ALWAYS wake up that noisly?

Tomoe moaned in pain as he looked up at the roof, and at the brown eyes that met his. He narrowed his violet eyes as Nanami looked down at him; but before he coudl open his mouth she placed a finger to her lips to quite him.

He growled and looked at her; not comfortable at the time. She was messing with his nerves; not because she was Nanami, but because she was a female period. This made Tomoe go on edge at the thought of her. He bit his lip in confusion as She pouted and innocently climbed out of his bed,

" I couldn't sleep last night. I heard tapping on my window.. like someone was throwing something. I got spooked and came here." She winced and Tomoe stared at her. He sighed heavily as he sat up and bit his lip,

" Why my room?" He stiffled a whine and stood up in annoyance, " Why not Mizuki or your mom?"

The girl smiled innocently and tugged at her soft brown hair, " Because, Mom was working and Mizuki isn't you." She smiled but Tomoe looked at her surprised, This made Nanami think about her words and they both looked at each other.

" I m-mean." Nanami swallowed, " He's not my BEST friend.." She looked away and mentally slapped herself. This made Tomoe feel even more uncomfortable; His stomach twisted but he said nothing. It was his hormones.. nothing more.

Tomoe swallowed and looked at the girl before turning to open the door; he pasued and looked at her, " What do you think was tapping on your window?" He whispered out.

She looked at him and pasued but said nothing, She shook her messy bed head and the teen sighed out in annoyance. He had a bad feeling in the pit of his stomach, but he wasn't going to say anything.

He opened the door and walked down the stairs. He was still tired and his back was aching, he stretched his long arms and reached up over his head as he made his way to the kitchen. When he walked in he froze as the atmoshpere turned cold... He didn't have anything to say to the person in front of him.

The person that didn't answer his phone or even dare to call back to see if he was okay; It made the fox feel like he was wasn't supposed to be there. Like his life didn't matter at all, so Tomoe sucked in his breath and grabbed the orange juice carton. He drank a little of it and then paused,

His stomach turned but he avoided eye contact with his father; he nodded at Gwen and muttered a good morning but after that he walked out of the kitchen and swallowed; What was that? He had to question it in his mind but he coudln't understand it.

How could he? He felt lost to everything around him; but he had come to a decision in the hospital. He had to harden himself more; because letting your emotions pour out hurt. If he coudl just hold it in he would be fine; nothing a few rubber bands couldn't fix.

As long as he could breath.. he would be fine.

Tomoe kicked at a rock and stared ahead; he didn't know why he was out like this; but being in the same room as his father was horrible. The man didn't even call him back, even after Tomoe had tried to get him to answer.

The fox stared at the sidewalk as he slowly walked; his body was hurting him and his fever was getting higher by the second. This had happened last time he was on full moon week; and it wasn't fun at all. In fact he felt dizzy and slightly irritated.

He wanted to scream and maybe look ahead and leave. He knew he was going on full moon week and it was weighing on him terribly. He didn't want to be in the same house as Nanami at the moment. It was too much for him...

The white haired teen stopped and huffed out a breath before swearing loudly, He heard someone call his name but it was too late when he picked up a rock and threw it into the distance.

Thats when a ' WHAT ARE YOU DOING!?" And a car alarm filled Tomoe's ears. He blinked in shock and when he turned he saw Mizuki running towards him. The snake gave him a look of disbelief and he yanked the foxes hand. They both ran off rather quickly before anyone coudl see the damage, Tomoe knew this was wrong but how could he explain this to an adult?

The fox cursed as they hid in an alley and he sunk down in pain. His back was murdering him and this only made Mizuki look at him. He arched his brow and then winced,

" Whats with you? You have seemed pretty distant since this morning Tomoe-kun." Mizuki pouted in his innocent way but his eyes said to try him. The fox winced and looked away half annoyed.

" Its nothing!" The fox fumed out in annoyance. He looked away from the snake but mizuki shocked him by glaring,

" Say that again?" Mizuki glared and Tomoe huffed, he opened his mouth to scream but this only made the snake stare with wide eyes. He looked away and sighed heavily before coughing into his hand in an embarrassed manner,

" Tomoe-Kun, Open your mouth." Mizuki snapped as they both stepped out of the alley.

Tomoe looked at him confused until the snake sighed heavily and glared,

" Your teeth.. They look like they're starting to bare.' The snake muttered under his breath leaving Tomoe to gasp and run to a store front window. He looked at his reflection and then gursed when he saw his teeth; they were starting to point dangersouly and the thought of biting and licking was becoming very appealing to him at the moment.

His face burned crimson as he looked down and whimpered, he didn't feel well at all. In fact his head was pounding from his fever. Mizuki must of saw this and sighed,
" Its your second time right? It started a little earlier since Nanami ended it to soon last time.' He looked at him and paused before sighing heavily, " Tomoe-kun. You should ride it out this time.'

Tomoe froze and looked at the snake, he was planning on riding it out but he knew that his hormones were stronger at this time. He wasn't sure if he could do this; and what made it worse was the fact that Mizuki knew already. The fox cursed and looked away until the snake smiled,

He donned his innocent look and laughed, " Just don't hurt Nanami to much!" He giggled and started to skip away leaving Tomoe to look at him mortfied,

" WHAT IS THAT SUPPOSED TO MEAN!?" Tomoe screamed out; his face burning with an unknown blush.

HE, HATED FULL MOON WEEK!

The fox let his tail slump; he knew he had to go back home, he was to tired to walk anymore and the sky looked like it was promising rain. Tomoe didn't know what Mikage thought about when he saw Mizuki but Tomoe didn't care really.

He had moved on impulse and even though he fought with the snake he was still like a brother. Tomoe sighed out and then glared at the path that Mizuki had taken,
" I STILL WANNA KNOW WHAT YOU MEANT!" He screamed out as he picked up his pace

Areno huffed out a breath and looked over at Rii, who was staring at their broken car window. She looked terrorifed, given that she quite school early so that she could be with Areno.

Now they had to get a new window..

The black haired fox huffed out a breath and stared at the shattered window. It was a good thing he become a principal; he would have to pay for this right away. He growled under his breath and leaned his head on the door; Rii rubbed his back slightly and looked at him,

" Whats wrong?" She pouted.

The black haired fox looked at her and sighed, " I just hope this is the right thing to do.' He paused and looked at her as her hand drifted to his ear; he looked at her with a confused look but he smiled when she kissed her forehead.

" Everything is going to be okay. We can make this work;" She fist pumped the air and Areno couldn;t help but roll his eyes from how she ruined the moment. Not that he was complaning.. It had been so long since he seen her.

So long of just hearing her voice and not seeing her face. He let her massage his ears until he had enough of the control factor. He leaned forward and breathed in her scent, enjoying that she was here with him.. helping him through all the pain he was going through.

She giggled when he nipped her neck playfully and she laughed when he kissed her jawline,

" Oh God how I missed you.." He whispered out leaving the woman to shiver. She smiled and hugged him to her, enjoying that he was just holding her gently. He sighed and let her touch his ears some more; his mind racing..

" I missed you too." She snorted when he kissed her cheek, " Now stop!" She laughed as Areno pulled away and gave her a fake pout,

" Don't you wanna make out?" He pouted and she playfully hit his head. He blinked in shock as she started to laugh harshly,

" Not now! Its the weekend and your house looks aweful! Your a yokai that brings life and healing, and yet you keep it like the graveyard outside!' She puffed out her cheeks and hummed, " Lets get cleaning supplies."

Areno rolled his eyes, ' And then I can kiss you.. All I want." He hummed and thought about that a bit.

" Pervert.." Rii sighed out and hit his arm again. He laughed as he started to clean the glass from his car.

He had to get this fixed, it looked like it woudl rain soon.. and this car was new. He had to fix the winodw and then make sure Rii was taken care of whith her cleaning needs. Then he had to fix dinner and help her clean..

Joy..

The fox sighed and looked at the blond not to far away from him; he winked but t=paused when she blew him a kiss. He blushed slightly but pretended to catch it. She rolled her eyes.

" Your corny."

" But you still love me.." Areno countered and then laughed when they got into the car..

Just when the rain started to pour..

Nanami looked at Tomoe as he came in right when the rain started; sadly Mizuki wasn't so lucky. The youngest teen walked in glaring at the fox for shutting the door and locking it so that he couldn't get in.

Mizuki had told Tomoe what he meant and the fox was so embarrassed and disgusted that he didn't even want to see the small perverts face. When he did walk in Tomoe glared at him and Nanami sighed. Great, not even a week and they were already fighting.

'Where were you too?" Nanami huffed and looking at them; Tomeo looked at her and paused. For some reason he grew quiet while Mizuki fidgeted.

Then the snake, with no brains in his head at all said , ' We sure didn't break a winodw, Thats for sure!" She clapped his long sleeves together as Tomoe gave him a , ' Really?" Look. The snake mouthed out the word, ' What?' As Nanami gasped.

" WHA!?" She asked slightly shocked that her, ' Bestest Friend in the world had done something that careless. Tomoe looked at her and then glared at Mizuki. They both looked at her until Tomoe sighed out loudly and then brushed the brocken window thing off for another day.

" Whats for dinner?" He muttered slightly when he put his jacket up. Nanami looked at him with sad eyes and then nearly choked slightly when Tomoe sighed and looked at her, " Let me guess..' He cursed, " Take-out?"

Nanami nodded and Tomoe's ears flattened, He looked annoyed and Mizuki didn't understand why. The younger teen looked at Tomoe's wrists and paused; did he still do it? Or was he shutting himself off to his father complately now? The snake looked at Tomoe's wrists and paused.. It was fine right now.

Good..'

Tomoe on the other hand was thinking multiple things; his hormones was acting up; his head was pounding. He felt sick to the stomach and Nanami was looking at him worried. Even Mizuki was giving him a werid stare; the fox shook this off of course.

He had to get the take out food now. His mouth was watering for something and he wasn't going to be stupid. He had to hold off what he was going through as of late. Tomoe stormed into the kitchen and pulled out his take out. He grabbed the others and took them into the living room; where all the teens sat down.

Tomoe opened his steaming bento book and started to chow down rather quickly. He chewed violently and sighed, but when he went to take another bite Nanami stopped him and blinked;

" Man, you eating as if you've been starved.' She blinked, " Did you not eat anything today?" She pouted and the fox wiped at his mouth with his forearm. He didn't want to tell her that he was going into his full moon week. This was only his second time and everytime someone said anything he woudl get beyound embarrassed.
His father didn't even know and Tomoe didn't plan on telling him. The teen wasn't even going to try to take the hormone pills this time because they didn't work last time. He looked at Mizuki and Nanami and blushes lightly at his lack of manners.

" I didn't eat yesterday.. So.." He paused when Nanami pouted and leaned over the table; then to Mizuki's shock she ran a finger over th fox lips. Tomoe looked at her in confusion but his heart sped up rather quickly. So quickly that he could barely breath.. So he let his mouth open a bit.

Thats when Mizuki looked at him and coughed on a piece of chicken. Tomeo didn't know why until Nanami ran a finger over one of his kanines. It bared and the white haired teen nearly moaned out in guilty pleasure. She was just touching his mouth but it felt nice.. like a carress.'

Thats when he noticed Mizuki was staring at him in shock. His chopsticks had a peice of chicken but Tomoe saw the food fall as Mizuki stared at him frozen, and with a open mouth. Mizuki had no idea how Tomoe and Nanami acted aroudn each other. He knew they were close.. But he didn't think Nanami touched Tomoe so carelessly.
But the snake didn know by the look on Nanami's face she didn't look like she knew what she was doing; and Tomoe looked like he was in utter tormoil. As if she was torturing him or something. The snake rolled his green eyes and slurped some noddles;

He wondered if they did anything else that they tried to throw off? The snake did recall that he had caught them making out before; but that was for reasons of ear touching and full moon week... Thats when Mizuki paused.

Wasn't it full moon week now?

He shuddered when he saw Tomoe look down at his bento . He started to eat quietly as Nanami smiled innocently and chewed on some celery. He knew they were friends, the best of them. They seemed to tell each other everything but yet..

They still didn't seem to know how much the other went through.

The snake sighed as Tomoe poked at his bento and chewed some mochi; thats when there was a knock at the door. Tomoe graoned and looke dat the clock in confusion. It was almost eight and someone was at their door?

The fox huffed out a breath and stood; his back was aching in pain and he didn't really understand as to why he had to put up with such a sore body. He ground his teeth, minding that his kanines were bared to a slight point. He felt like a pervert but this was something that all foxes went through..

It was a sign of growing up..

Tomoe huffed out a long breath before opening the door and sighing out, " Yes may I hel-" The fox blinked when he looked at his father. He glared and started to close the door until his father sighed.

" I live here.." He moaned and pushed the door open. Tomoe fumed at his behavior but he said nothing... Instead His father looked at him and sighed,

" Tomoe, " He muttered making the teen glare, Let me explain.."

Tomoe fumed and turned, his body aching and disagreeing with the movement. He nearly choked but held back his feelings; he was tired of being the weak one here. He just wanted this man to leave him alone.. He wanted the world to leave him alone...

" I don't want it. Stop talking to me. Its annoying.' The teen said rather blankly before Mikage sighed,

" Sobo is coming over tomorrow." Mikage sighed heavily and Tomoe turned to look at him; the god then grew quite when he saw his sons, feral and angered look. His eyes were slits as he fumed and then made Mikage pause..

Ah.. So it was that time of month.'

" I don't care!" Tomoe cursed, " Leave me be!" He turned around and left Mikage to stand in the door way and wince..

" Mom.. Be prepared, Hes going through a hormonal imbalance. Mikage choked out and tried not to laugh.

They grew up to fast..

OOH! Sobo Is coming! Tomoe is in for it! Also.. On the Next Chapter, Heated Romance.. But, what happens when Tomoe bleeds; but is still in Full Moon Week? Apparently is doesn't work everytime.. Hahah..'

T : O.O W-What!? WHAT ARE YOU PLANNING!?"

Me:' Making Kissy faces and tongue motions'

T " O/O W-Wha!?"
