It's been a crap week at work. The rainy season has caused a few flood spots in the library and there was a lot of water damage. Then the power went out and had to get a generator because it was the peak of school season and students just kept coming. Then a nearby tree fell and broke a couple windows. Ugh! I just need this week to be over.

I'm in my room curled on my futon, hugging my pillow and told the guys I wanted to be alone. Samon, of course, was concerned and brought me dinner. At least I didn't lose my appetite so it helped him not worry about me so much.

I was facing the window watching the rain fall and sighed when I heard my door open and close. "Samon I'm okay re-" I roll over to see no one there. "Guess I imagined it..." I roll back to watch the water fall when my arm wraps around something soft and fluffy.

Miyabi, in full kitsune form, had taken up the spot where my pillow was and wagged his tail happily.

"Miyabi, I'm not in the mood." I groaned as I tried to shoo him away. I roll onto my back so I didn't have to look at him.

"Bark!" I feel a furry muzzle nudge my hand and wiggle my hand onto to the top of his head.

"Huh?" I prop myself up on an elbow and see Miyabi looking happy as I'm rubbing his head and start scratching behind his ears.

Miyabi wagged his tail, looking really happy as he rubbed against my side and just laid there, curling up to take a nap.

"So you do have a honestly cute side," I said with a smirk and a chuckle. He gave me a "gimme a break" look as I rolled back onto my side. "Thank you," I said as I cuddled up with him in my arms, drifting off to sleep
