Next Day

Matted fur, was not the best way to wake up in the morning. And that is one thing that every shifter can agree on. The cave floor was now freezing cold, and I had no intention in turning back into human form right now.

Looking outside, I could tell that the rain had finally let up, but I wasn't sure where I should go from here. I would have forgotten the rouge laying on the other side of the cave, if I hadn't inhaled his retched scent. My hackles automatically raised as my body tensed up and inspected him.

His mangled gray fur was wild and unkept, but the disinterest in his eyes seemed to annoy me the most. With a snort, he caught me glaring at him and rolled his blue eyes before sitting up and stretching out like a cat.

Ironic huh?

When he was walking to the exit he slowly creeped by me a purposely flicked his tail onto my face as he past. I retaliated by letting out an angry roar that shook the cave a little before nipping at the end of the tail.

Seemingly unbothered by my fit, he strolled out of the cave and began to lap at the water of a stream.

Still a little upset over the whole fur in the eyes incident, I crept up behind him and purposely slammed my body into his, making him fall into the water.

It's safe to say that the rouge did not like that...

Narrowing his eyes, he let out a deafening growl and puffed up his chest. Although power was emitting from his body, the drowned kitten look had ruined the entire image. Settling with a snarl and a flick of his paws, he shook out his fur and went behind a nearby tree.

I automatically went into a defensive position when the sound of bones breaking and clothes shuffling was heard. When he came out from behind the tree I should have remembered that he wouldn't have clothes on. But of course being the idiot I am, I was straight out staring at the God given man and his family jewels. Since I was still a tiger at the moment, he couldn't see the blush that would have flooded my entire body.

The rouge smirked as he met my eyes and bent down to my level. I instantly snarled and bared my canines but he proceeded to stroke my head while still naked.

"My names Dale, and I've never seen a shifter like you."

Ignoring him, I walked back towards the cave and tried to forget how good it felt to have him stroke my fur.

"Feisty little cub", he chuckled before momentarily leaving the view of the cave's opening and returning fully dressed.

Plopping back down onto the cold cave floor, I then decided to groom myself and ignore his presence. I could feel his piercing blue eyes staring at me and I momentarily looked up from my task and bared my teeth. Only to be ignored as he set up a fire.

"Well until you decide to turn back, I'm going to call you Fuzzy Cub."

Instantly I was one my feet, trying to rip out his neck. He chuckled as he simply blocked my attack and continued to tend to the fire.

"Fuzzy Cub, seems to have anger management problems."

Snarling, I edged closer towards the warmth of the fire and didn't even notice when I curled up against his body.

Stupid rouge.
