Aki Kitsune

The Following Day....

"The hell is this?" Aki's eye brow twitched at the sight in front of him as he walked up to The Sunny Wolf bar's doors. Before he could reach the building he could see Felix outside the bar talking to a beautiful woman. There was a strange feeling in his chest that made him want to run up and interrupt their conversation immediately. Fighting back the urge to act jealous as best as he could he slowly walked towards them. He could see Felix reaching out slowly towards the woman as he carefully brushed the woman's hair behind her ear.

Flirting! He's flirting with that woman! Aki thought to himself as his face turned slightly red as he stopped in his tracks just far enough away that Felix had heard his footsteps. He watched at Felix turned his head to glance in his direction. The expression on Felix's face felt unreadable to him as the look only lasted a moment before he turned back to the lady and continued talking without so much as a hello in his direction.

Standing there in silence Aki did not know whether or not to speak out or remain quiet. Turning to run off from the scene in front of him he could hear Felix calling out to him from behind but he could not make out the words because his mind was too jumbled up at what he'd seen. He could not understand why he felt jealous that Felix was touching that woman's hair. It was clear at a glance that Felix was probably flirting with her and it caused his chest to tighten like someone had wrapped a noose around it.

"Aki! Aki, Wait!" Felix called out louder as he reached out and grabbed him by the wrist. It was clear by his heavy breathing that he was out of breath from chasing after him.

"Who.." Aki muttered a single word out of his mouth without turning around to look at Felix. He was not certain he could bear to look at him right there.

"Why are you running off like that when you just got to the bar? Are you trying to deliberately make me chase you down like a child? Have you even ate yet to have so much energy like this?" Felix began to scold him.

"Who was she?!" Aki could not stop the question from blurting out in a shout as he swung himself around finally to glare at Felix. The anger and jealousy was obvious on his face as his eyes shook with fear of what the answer might be.

"Name?. Ah.." Felix scratched behind his neck as he tried to recall the woman's name.

"That's not what I meant and you know it." Aki grit his teeth together as he held in a growl the best he could. If only he could turn into his fox form right there he would use his canine teeth to shred Felix apart.

"That's not your business to worry about." Felix scolded as he planted his hand down on the top of Aki's head and roughed up his hair gently.

"It is my business." Aki said as he puffed out his cheeks in pure jealousy. He had already decided this mortal was his property and now the mortal was doing things he did not like. If he could scold the man he would but he could not decide how to handle the situation.

"No. It's not." Felix took his hand and held onto Aki's chin to force him to look him in the eye. "I'm not yours. You're not mine. I can do whatever I want with whoever I want."

"Whoever?" Aki asked bluntly as he stared up into that pink colored eye.

"Yes." Felix responded simply while staring back down at him.

He did not want to tell Aki the truth that nothing had happened between him and the girl because he rather enjoyed seeing Aki act jealous over him. Felix knew that withholding the fact that nothing happened for that simple reason might have been childish himself but he could not help the rush of pleasantry he felt knowing that Aki was aching over the idea of him with another. It was not like Felix did not play around because he was not against one night stands with random strangers that he found to his liking but the past few days his mind had been filled with nothing but the sense to take care of Aki that he had completely went without acting out on his playful whims with others.

"Right.." Aki said out loud as his mind got lost in his own thoughts. He could not help picturing Felix with others because to Felix they were nothing more then a man taking care of some boy he thought was simply unable to properly care for himself. It was true that Aki was not the best at taking care of himself when it came to a mortal's standards but his body simply did not require everything a mortal did.

"Come with me today because I have somewhere to show you. I'll have someone else tend to the bar for me today." Felix smiled kindly as he tussled Aki's hair with his fingers. His body was knelt down just enough so that his face was inches from Aki's causing the boy to blush slightly at how close they were to each other.

"Where are you taking me?" Aki asked curiously as he wondered what plan this mortal might be having for him.

"Hopefully somewhere that will solve the issue of you sleeping by my bar's trash." Felix sighed deeply as he was just happy that he saw Aki today before he passed out with the trash again because it was starting to get on his nerves. He was the sort that had no patience so it was already shocking to himself that he was tolerating the fact that Aki never listened to a word he said to him. It was obvious by the look on his face that the boy was not sure how to take the fact that he was planning to take him somewhere but he only hoped it would go well when they got there.
