After my evil rampage with the blood, Suki gave me a hug. My face was kinda red, but I didn't want the others to see me yet. I hugged her back and we left that place (hopefully no one was following) and we ended up at the park again, sitting on a bench.
Well, technically, I wasn't on the bench. I was trying to mend Suki's wound a little faster. Biju's heal fast, but just to make sure it didn't re-open, I was healing it. My face was red from nervousness. Why was I nervous? I don't get it. I've never felt an emotion like this before.
The wound on Suki's leg was mending up well, so I stopped after I though it was at a point of not re-opening. "Okay," I said, standing up, "it looks better now, I don't think it will re-open."
I sat on the bench and there was a silence for a while. My fox ears were still showing and so were my tails, but they didn't bug me much. I stared at the ground and my face was red. Why? I don't get it? What was this emotion that I've never really felt? It confused me, but Suki decided to break the silence. "So... Kyuubi?"
"?"
"I was wondering, have you ever loved anyone besides Chiyoko?"
I thought for an answer to that, but couldn't think of what love was. "Hmm... Haven't really thought about it. Chiyoko's my sister and has most of my attention, but I haven't really thought of love, so I can't really say..."
Suki kinda started to laugh. It looked as if she was moving closer to me too. "All you have to do is find the right person. One who's kind, funny, and would do anything for you. Maybe a few name callings here and there but that's basic stuff."
'Is she giving examples of what we used to be like?' I thought.
"It also depends how you want that special person to be. They could be a... never give up or knock down. they could be someone who will take lame jokes. Sometimes the people you hate the most end up being the perfect match for you."
"Makes since in a way," I replied back.
"What was that?" I said, looking at the bushes, "Okay, come out!"
A squirrel came out of the bushes and I was embarrassed. "It's a squirrel," Suki commented.
We were talking mostly about random thinks, training, likes and dislikes, it was kinda making me relax more. We had really nice conversations and I didn't get annoyed. Was I actaully liking her?
Then she was really close and started to cuddle up to me. I was getting redder, but let her. "I still can't remember why we were always yelling at each other... It's pretty hard when it's a stupid reason..." she was saying, "... Hey Kyuubi tell me something... what's our relationship gonna be like after this night?"
I kinda paused, but my fox ears flattened. "Umm... I honestly don't know."
I started to look away, but I kinda stopped. "I'm sorry I was just wondering 'cause um... I really like you," she said, blushing.
I turned back and I felt really nervous. I actually was studdering when I was speaking. "Umm... I... I-i kinda think... *gulp* umm...I-i... k-kinda like you too..." I said, nervously.
"Glad you feel that way," she said, "Both of us don't have to be alone now."
I got up off the bench and stumbled onto the ground. My face was almost as red as my fox fur. "B-b-but a-a-aren't y-you going out w-with Isonade?"
"Please, he kisses and hits on more girls at a bar. I honsetly think we may be better together. What do you say?" she said, holding out her hand.
I wasn't sure if she was serious or not. Oddly though, it didn't seem as if I cared. "Uhh... Umm... I-if you're okay with it... T-then, uh... Y-y-yes," I said, grabbing her hand.
She pulled me out and was happy. "Yay! Kyuubi-kun and me are going out!"
Then Suki did something I thought was strange. She kissed me. After that, she realized what she did and started to really blush. "Um... was that your first kiss?"
My face wasn't red, but pink out of happiness. "It's okay. I'm actually quite happy," I said, rubbing the back of my head.
"I'm glad," she said, smiling.
After a while, Sosha was really starting to bug me. He was hiding in the bushes. 'Does he really think that we are that stupid?' I thought.
"And if Sosha tells anyone before we do, he's dead."
"Yeah, we're going to tell everyone eventually, but if he does it, he's going to be in for it."
"He'd better leave if he knows what's good for him," she said, glaring over at the bush.
The two-tailed neko kid came out from the bushes and was rubbing his head with a goofy smile. "Oh, hi Suki, Kyuubi. You won't believe how lost I was!"
both Suki and I glared at the kid and he started to get nervous. "My friend's a cop!" he said, running to Shane's.
Both of us sighed and we followed. Suki burst into the front door of Shane and Suki's home. "Shane! Your buddy was spying on us!"
"Us?" he questioned.
"Me and her," I said, pointing.
"Can't I have some privacy Shane?" she said, blushing and going down the stairs to the basement.
"Kyuubi?" Shane said turning to me.
I remembered the way he acted towards Isonade and the both of us were friends, so I wanted to avoid stuff like that. My face turned red and I went downstairs. "I'll be with Suki..."
"Did I miss something?" Shane asked Sosha.
"I can't explain it, but I'll be right back," he said, walking downstairs too.
Sosha snuck quickly into the room without being noticed. (The Kuma Clan used to be known for being assassins) He saw Suki and me sitting close to each other and got an evil smile on his face. His singing started quietly, but soon rose in tone.
There's a calm surrender
To the rush of day
When the heat of the rolling world
Can be turned away
An enchanted moment
And it sees me through
It's enough for this restless warrior
Just to be with you
"Did you just hear something?" I said.
Suki nodded, and the song continued.
And can you feel the love tonight?
How it's laid to rest?
It's enough to make kings and vagabonds
Believe the very best.
There's a time for everyone
If they only learn
That the twisting kaleidoscope
Moves us all in turn
There's a rhyme and reason
To the wild outdoors
When the heart of this star-crossed voyager
Beats in time with yours
Suki and I got up, both of us were blushing and starting to get upset. Where was that song coming from?
And can you feel the love tonight?
How it's laid to rest?
It's enough to make kings and vagabonds
Believe the very best.
And can you feel the love tonight?
It is where we are
It's enough for this wide-eyed wanderer
That we got this far
And can you feel the love tonight
How it's laid to rest?
It's enough to make kings and vagabonds
Believe the very best.
It's enough to make kings and vagabonds
Believe the very best.
Both of us soon spotted Sosha. "Sosha! You're dead!" Suki said, transforming wolf.
Sosha dodged her attack and hurried up the stairs. "Shane! I suggest you run! Don't ask what I did, but they're really pissed now!"
"What did you do?!"
"Sing "Can You Feel the Love Tonight" when they were close together," he responded.

This was seriously long, but I like this story. Apparently Shukaku and Isonade aren't the only people that will be getting Kyuubi and Suki upset. Can't wait until the next part occurs.
