Suddenly A Kitten

Chapter 38

Reagan's pov

  I stared at the tv feeling annoyed as Sakura punched Naruto for no reason for the millionth time.

I turned the tv off and sighed rolling over in bed. I was bored, and already missed Sora.

I bet she doesn't even know you're ignoring her. The  stupid voice in my head told me.

I groaned and rolled back and forth on the bed frustrated.

A knock sounding on my door made me tense- but I refused to turn and see who it was.

"Can we talk?"

I choked on my spit at the sound of Carrots voice.

"No!" I snapped now sitting up.

Carrots peeked his head in frowning.

"Why not? You aren't doing anything."

I looked away. "Am so."

Carrots laughed slightly. "Feeling sorry for yourself is a waste of time." He informed me.

I huffed. "Says you- what did you even want to talk about?" I looked at him curiously now.

Carrots didn't walk in slowly like I expected him to. No, he walked right in and sat right next to me. On the bed!

I looked at him with wide eyes.

"I am in love with Sora."

Wasn't expecting him to be so open about it...

"What is your point?"

Carrots raised an eyebrow.

"I intend to be with her as well. I won't touch you if you don't permit it, have no fear."

I flushed, then another question came to mind.

"What about Roman?"

Carrots looked thoughtful.

"I don't know. I certainly lust for him, but I do not know if I love him yet."

I nodded and looked away.

He's honest at least.... He kind of reminds me of Sora, like a male bird version of her. Wait, maybe I'm being ridiculous again.

"Do want to make love with Sora?" Carrots asked out the blue.

I looked at him, jaw dropped.

Maybe not as much like Sora as I thought, she's to careful with me to ask something like that. He's... treating me like a normal person. Not sure how I feel about that.

I love how Sora treats me most of the time, for some reason-

"So, do you, or not?"

I turned to Carrots.

"Y-yes, wait! That's n-none of your business!"

Carrots shrugged.

"Maybe, maybe not. I plan on touching her."

I nibbled on my bottom lip, Carrots eyes dipped to my mouth as I looked out the window.

"T-that's nice. Was there something else you wanted?"

Carrots cracked a smile.

"Have you ever kissed any other man besides the one who hurt you?"

I blinked hard.

"No."

Carrots frowned and reached up. I froze as he tucked some of my brown hair from my eyes.

"Do you want too?"

He- he isn't offering what I think he is, is he?

"N-no!"

Carrots hesitated. I stared at him heart pounding.

"Do I frighten you?"

What is this? Twenty questions?

"Yes, v-very much!" I told him gulping.

Carrots tilted his head to the side.

"Why? Do you think I intend to have my way with you?"

I covered my red face.

"No- yes, I don't know! I don't like other guys! They hurt me!"

Carrots took my hands from my face, making me flinch and stare at him.

"Other guys? One man hurt you. I know it's painful, but not everyone is like that. You've just been to scared to let them in."

My heart pounded in my ears.

"Do you talk to Sora like this?"

Carrots cracked a smile.

"Sometimes, when she needs it."

I stared at him and winced looking away. Tears filled my eyes, and my hands shook.

"I had trouble letting Sora touch me for the longest time, much less a male." I admitted, my voice a whisper.

Carrots nodded.

"That's fine. I expected as much. I'll leave you alone. If you'd like, we don't even have to talk to one another." Carrots stood.

I sat up more, strangely panicked as he walked to the door.

"W-wait!"

Carrots turned and frowned.

"What is it?"

I fiddled with the blankets on the bed.

"W-we should at least try to be friends. I-if you intend to kiss my brother and girlfriend."

Carrots smiled.

"Alright. I can work with that."

I gulped and touched my thighs with both hands nervously.

"Y-you can come back in." I looked at my feet. "If you'd like."

Footsteps coming towards me made me frown, but I didn't look up.

Hands on my chin made me gasp.

"If we're going to be friends, at least look at me."

I flushed meeting his eyes.

He's teasing me!

"S-stop being so bold."

Carrots smiled.

"Does it bother you all that much? I find being bold makes it easier to get what I want." 

I shivered and looked up at him through my lashes.

"N-no." I said slowly then cleared my throat as Carrots looked at me confused. "I don't mind all that much."

Whoop whoop! Carrots and Reagan! Smooth sailing from here on out ladies and gentlemen!

(Except for the Warren issue.)

Next chap we'll get to have our crossover!

If you have any suggestions, let me know!

I love hearing from you guys!
