Thread: Touch: The Fluffy Tail (Tek&Wing)

OOC Ok, RP with you later, then W-well... I've known you for so long, I guess I worry that things won't always be the same between us. Its like you're a permanent part of my life and I don't want it to ever go away, she blushed furiously, her hands tightening into fists as she fought against the desire to run away. No, she had to stand strong... She had to tell him! She could picture the two of them at the top of a hill covered with spring flowers, the wind filled with tiny pink cherry blossoms as she said those three simple words to him I love you. He would take her into his arms and whisper sweet nothings into her hear, holding her to himself as he twirled her around and around, the world around them falling away as it were. She parted her lips to make an effort toward making her fantasy a reality, but the possibility vanished right from before her eyes as the next few words left his mouth, shattering what little hope she had built up within her like a hammer slamming into a thin pane of glass. Always be best friends... Best friends... Friends... But never more than friends... You're already a jerk, Stupid! Tama took a scoop of ice cream and flung it at his face, idiot, idiot, idiot! The fears and doubts within her continued to grow. Yuki would marry Nick, probably moving off to some faraway city she had never heard of and send the occasional post card in order to make an appearance of keeping in touch. She'd be left out in the cold, forever longing after the days and years that they had spent together as children as friends. If they didn't move away, it might be even more painful for her. Humans were very active creatures, and she would doubtless hear them going at it all night, making babies. At best she might be able to stick around their home as the household pet, watching the children as they grew up and watching their parent's loving marriage from afar. She clenched her teeth together with rage and jealousy, although her outward expression was still playful and deceptively lighthearted. From the first time Rick introduced Yuki to her, she knew there was no place for her in their lives. Even if Nick tried his best to maintain their friendship, the pain within her would never go away. He would be forever out of her reach, not because she was any less attractive, smart, or fun to be around than Yuki but... Because she wasn't human. If it was something about her personality or appearance that kept the two of them apart, with enough work and effort she might have been able to do something about it. But, she couldn't stop being a kitsune any more than she could turn herself into a cucumber. Briefly entertaining the thought of how she might look as a cucumber, she mentally shook her head in protest. It was simply not possible. She inwardly cast hate toward herself and toward fate for causing her to fall in love. Why did she have this emotion, if all it brought her was pain and suffering? She could never let Nick know her true feelings... He probably never even considered that she would ever have such feelings toward him, and if he knew he would surely come to loathe her very presence. Why did she have to be born a kitsune? If the two of them had been both been humans, they would have met and fallen in love with each other. She could have just told Yuki off and left her on the sidelines, but as she currently was she had no right to do so. Nick had chosen Yuki instead of herself, the coursing pain of acknowledging the truth of her condition but her to the bone, but her anger had an odd way of venting itself on Nick instead of staying all welled up inside. Idiot! Tama hurled another glob of ice cream at his cheek, then began shoveling it down into her own mouth instead upon realizing that she probably shouldn't waste more than a few spoonfuls of the delicious cream on revenge, You're so dense... Whatever, this topic is boring me already anyway. How about you tell me how your day went, instead?
