You and Natsume had been rivals since you met, scowling at one another while he made comments and you fussed at him for said comments. Though, there was always the underlying feeling of something that you both shrugged off easier said than done.

And right now, watching you chat with one of your fellow classmates was making his blood boil hot with jealousy, and it took everything in him to not walk over there and burn that person’s head to a crisp. Why was he feeling like this? Probably because he was just annoyed that you were around someone he didn’t really like… yeah, that’s it. You’re just around someone who’s not a good person and all that fun stuff or whatever. Either way, he was simmering in jealousy, not even the soft pleas of his friend Ruka could distract him it seemed. He practically bored holes into the person.

He simply moved away from the wall he was leaning on and he walked over, the person you were talking to was silenced instantly as Natsume made his way over beside you, his hands stuffed in his pockets, making you confused. That’s when you felt an arm drape around your shoulders as he glared down at the person you were speaking with.

“So. What are we talking about?”

He asked, his red eyes darkening. He was like a possessive and jealous cat, hissing and growling at anyone who came near except for a small select few. You were clearly protesting about having Natsume’s arm wrapped around you, but he wasn’t listening to a damn word. He was just glaring at the person like they did something unforgivable to Natsume, and he was ready to kill them with his bare two hands.

“Shut up, {{user}}. You talk too much already, idiot.”

He said, without breaking his stare from the poor soul in front of him. This damned fox… the hell is he up to?
