Black Innocence

[A/N: I had fun writing one fanfic (although Sailor Moon) of two characters at costume party locked in a closet during a game; so I decided to do one for Furuba...I came up with this very early this morning, so I hope it works out okay--it's NOTHING like the one I wrote for Sailor Moon.]

[Disclaimer: All characters mentioned are propery of Natsuki Takaya, though I'd like to be trapped in a closet with Black Haru ^_~;;]


Black Innocence

"Taurus: You dream and live a life in black and white, but it's time to stop dreaming and start doing by adding a little colour into your life with some fireworks. Take advantage of an unexpected situation, you never know where it might take you or with whom."

Rolling his eyes, Haru scrunched up the newspaper and threw it over his shoulder. "How corny could these things possibly get?" He propped an elbow on the low table in front of him and rested his chin in the palm of his hand as he sighed. "...I mean, honestly!"

"Then," Shigure began as he retrieved the balled up piece of newspaper from the floor and smoothed it out on the table. "You shouldn't read such things. You've crinkled the best part of the newspaper."

"What? The comics?"

"No. My book reviews!"
Holding up the page, Shigure turned over the horoscopes and pointed to the book review section.
A broad smile graced lipslips.

Blowing a clump of fringe out of his eyes, Haru gave a sloppy frown, trying to ignore his cousin's senseless raving of the reviews for his latest novel.
He tried to change the subject.
"Damnit aren't those two ready yet?"

Chuckling, Shigure threw the Ox a glare. "Well I know Tohru's been so excited about excited about Uo throwing her a birthday party, she's been ready for over an hour now and as for Kyo--"

"Why the hell are you dressed like that? I'd expect that damn Boar to dress like you but...but...gah, just forget it." Kyo's raised voice interrupted Shigure then fell silent as a muffled feminine voice uttered something in reply. "No, I said just forget it. Come on, we're late enough as it is and Hatori's probably waiting getting impatient."

The Ox and Dog exchanged glances as Kyo and Tohru appeared.

"Don't look at me," Shigure commented as he shrugged and stared down at the newspaper. "Tohru does look cute, but I'm guessing Kyo's not seen her until just a minute ago."

'A cat, she HAD to dress as a black cat!' Haru growled to himself. 'Why couldn't she be a fan of the Ox?' He sighed as he narrowed his silvery eyes and looked at Kyo with jealousy. 'It looks like I'll just have to become a fan of the cat for myself.'
He smirked as he set his sight on the Onigiri.

"Are you ready Haru?" Tohru asked as she gave him a bright smile and took him by a hand.

Haru nodded.

______________________________________________________________________________________


"Well it's about time you got here, we were about to start the fun without you," Uo grinned as she opened the door and pulled Tohru inside. "Oh look, both Kyon-Kyon and Haru decided to tag along afterall." She leaned in close to the two boys. "I thought you two didn't like parties."

"Don't call me Kyon-Kyon you damn Yankee!" Kyo hissed as he pushed past Haru and Tohru. "I only came because I didn't trust Haru being here alone with Tohru, besides it's her birthday."

"And I only came because I didn't trust YOU alone with Tohru," Haru fired back at Kyo. "It doesn't matter if it's Tohru's birthday or not, I can give her MY present anytime I want--all I need is a little time ALONE with her." He ran one slender gloved finger down the left side of Tohru's face as he gave a secret smirk.

"Awe isn't that cute Tohru?" Uo's eyes grew wide as she threw her arms around the chestnut haired girl. "They're fighting over you!"
Letting go of Tohru she stepped back and hooked an arm around one of hers. "I've decided we're going to play a game of spin the bottle. You're going to play and I'm not going to take no for an answer!"

"Well, ah...okay." Tohru happily replied with a smile as she allowed herself to get pulled along by her best friend, though she really didn't know the rules of the game or how to play it.
She figured Uo or Hana would give her a quick run down.

"Spin--" Kyo began.

"--The bottle?" Haru finished.

The pair looked at each other and ran after the two girls.


* * * *


Taking a seat across from Tohru, Haru took off his gloves and discarded them to one side as he threw a sly smile at a girl next to him, making her blush.
He almost laughed.
He loved the affect he had on girls. It was wickedly delicious, but he decided the affect he had on Tohru was his best work--the way he mostly had her in a state of confusion. Always blushing and almost looking like she was on the verge of wanting something, but she didn't know what.
That was something he liked. She always brought out Black Haru in him whenever he was around her.

Sliding his steely gaze to the right of him. He could see Kyo was sat two spaces away from him. He sat rigid, almost as if his hair was standing on end from being on such high alert, awaiting any chance to pick a fight.
Haru wondered if was because of Uo teasing him so much or because he had his sights set on the Onigiri and was willing to fight for her.
Finally, he looked at the empty ice-tea bottle laying in the le ole of the circle and glanced up at the Onigiri, hoping fate would smile down upon him just for one night.
'et iet it you damn cat. You've got no chance...'

"Tohru, you can go first--afterall, you're the birthday girl--now go spin that bottle." Uo pointed to the bottle.

Nibbling on her lower-lip, Tohru held her breath as she looked at Uo then at Hana, then back to Uo. "O...o...okay." Getting to her hands and knees, she crawled into the centre of the circle and spun the bottle. As she watcht spt spin around and around, she crawled back to her place.
It stopped at Haru.
She held her breath.
'Oh God!'

Uo let out a low whistle. "Nice."
She sprung to her feet and pulled Tohru to her feet. "Come on, follow me...you too lover-boy." She gestured for Haru to follow. "It's drill time."

Springing to his feet, Kyo growled as he followed tri trio. He knew the rules to Spin the bottle, and one thing he was NOT going to let Uo do was leave one sex-crazed Ox and one naive girl alone together.

_________________________________________________________________________________


"In you go."
Grabbing Haru by the shoulders, Uo slightly pulled him back toward her then gave him one hard shove forward. "You have five minutes with the birthday girl."

Tohru missed the Ox's smirk.

Kyo didn't. His burgundy eyes flared to life as the realisation sunk that in he wouldn't be able to stop Haru spending time alone with Tohru.
"And NO trying anything with her. I don't care if you spend the entire time talking, just don't try ANYTHING!"

"Awe is Kyon-Kyon jealous?" Uo laughed. "That's the whole point of the game. Tohru spun the bottle, it pointed to Haru now she's got 'alone time' with him in the closet for five minutes, they HAVE to do SOMETHING."

"I'm NOT jealous and DON'T call me Kyon-Kyon! You damn Yankee, you rigged that bottle."

"I did not! If you keep being so stupid, I'll make you dye your hair back it's natural colour."

"This is my natural colour!"

"Oh yeah? Care to prove that?"

"Forget it. There's no way I'm--"

"What's the matter? Are you scared I'm going to take your girlfriend?" Haru interrupted with a sly grin, taking off his longte jte jacket and dumping it on the cat's head.

Furious, Kyo grabbed at it and hissed. "Tohru's NOT my girlfriend, I just know what goes through your pea-brain when you go black!"

"Go black?" Uo asked dumbstruck, looking from the orange haired boy to the white haired boy.

"Well at least you admit she's not your girlfriend. So you won't mind if I do a little of thi-i-i-i-s and a lot of tha-a-a-a-a-t and plenty of something else too while I'm at it?"
sweaswear, if you touch her I'm going to knock you into the middle of next week!"

Frustrated, Uo kept looking back and forth between the two arguing boys. "Wait carrot-top, what do you mean about Haru going black?"

"Yeah right, you can't even defeat Yuki."

"Why you--!"

Ignored, Uo sighed as she looked to Tohru for help.

"Umn," Tohru put a finger to her chin and looked to one side, trying to come up with a believable excuse. She couldn't her her best friend the thruth about the Ox when it came to explaining his black personality. "Well, what Kyo meant is just that Haru's like everyone else, he has two sides. Atle tle and kind side and his other side, well..." Looking back at Uo, she tapped her two forefingers together. "Kyo sometimes says that's black because Haru can be aggressive and perverted--totally uncontrollable at times." She put a hand behind her head and laughed. "Though I don't know why, I've not really thought about it until now."
Noticing, the arguing had stopped, she looked around and hung her head, all three faces were looking at her. 'I think I over did it.'

Out of the darkness of the closet, a hand clamped onto one of her shoulders and pulled her in.
"You have to be in here too," Haru turned Tohru toward him and cupped her chin with a thumb and finger. "Afterall, you spun the bottle; it stopped on me. I must admit, I was quite surprised..." He leaned in close, as if he was about to steal a kiss.
"Thanks," he whispered in an ear and blew in it. "For getting me out of that situation with those two."

"Would you look at that, barely a minute into their 'alone time' and already he's putting the moves on her. Way to go Tohru!" Uo cheered, looking proud of herself as she closed the closet door. "You know Kyon-Kyon, I should have thrown this costume party much sooner."

"Shut up, I told you not to call me Kyon-Kyon!" Balling his hands into fists, he looked Uo up and down as he tried to restrain his anger. He couldn't believe he had let Hana, Uo and Tohru talk him into coming along to Uo's costume party for Tohru's birthday. There were a few kids from school who had hooked up with each other and even Hana had found a date. For once he envied Yuki's common-sense in turning down such an event due to student president commitments. "And who are you meant to be anyway?"

"Can't you tell?" Uo spun around. She was dressed completely in red and had butterfly wings attached to the small of her back. To top it off, she had an eye mask with feelers attached to it firmly in place around her eyes. "I'm the legendary red butterfly." She gave a grim look. "Okay, I would have dressed like Kyoko, but I didn't want..." She looked down at her hands for a moment then looked up and smiled. "Anyways, Tohru picked this out for me. So carrot-top, who are YOU meant to be?"

Kyo shrugged. "No body, I DON'T do dress-ups."

"Awe Kyon-Kyon doesn't like to have fun and play dress-up with other kids....If you're going to be no fun, maybe you should go home."

"Don't call me Kyon-Kyon you damn Yankee!" Throwing aside Haru's jacket, Kyo crossed his arms and cringed. 'I was a fool dressing in this damn haori and thinking Tohru would like it.'
"Maybe I will go home, you're turning out to be just as psycho as Haru."

"Pfft, face it carrot-top, you're not going anywhere--we both know that!"

"And don't call me carrot-top! I have a name you know! It's KYO, is that so hard to remember?"

As the voices faded, Tohru side-stepped away from Haru, breathing a sigh of relief. She was thankful she had managed to move before he could kiss her.
She began to search in the darkness for the door, the realisation of being alone in a closet with Haru for a full five minutes was nerve racking.
She had to keep her mind off the Ox and away from what could happen if he DID go black. She knew he wouldn't leave her alone if he did show that side to her and she wouldn't be able to stop herself giving into her own tempting desires.
Finding the door, she slid her hand down until she found the handle and pulled.
Nothing.
She tried again.
Still nothing.
"Haru..." She began, her voice a little shaky. "I don't mean to alarm you, but I think the door is stuck...or locked."

A low rumbling of laughter pierced the darkness as Haru stepped toward Tohru. He knew where doordoor was, so he easily knew where the Onigiri was standing.
"That's the whole point of spin the bottle. You spin it, it points to someone, you get 'alone time' in the closet for five minutes with them to do whatever and then the game begins again." He ran a finger down the length of her spine. "YOU wanted to play, now you'll find out what 'alone time' really means for me."

Tohru let out a little squeak as her pulse sped up.
The closeness of Haru was chilling--in a good way--he had an affect on her no one could match. At first she thought she was a real fan of the cat, for many years--ever sinhe whe was a little girl--she had believed it, but Kyo didn't make her feel anything the Ox did. The Ox made her tremble with little to no contact between them.
Even now her body was making her very aware of what the Ox was doing to her. The strangely familiar quickening beat of her heart, the shortness of her breath and the ebbing ache between her legs.
Wetting her lips, she let her mind wonder if there was such a thing as a non-sexual orgasm, because if Haru kept running a finger down her spine, she was sure to find out!

"Umn...so Haru," Tohru began, trying desperately to change the subject. "What did you come to the party dressed as? I can't figure it out."

Again Haru laughed. "I came as myself--the Ox of the Zodiac--though I wasn't going to wear the stupid Ox ears Kisa wanted me to wear." As his finger touched the tail of her spine, he clenched his teeth together when he felt the beginning of the velvet cat tail pinned to her black bants. "I'm rather crushed that you came as a fan of that stupid cat. Though, you do make rather sexy black cat."

'Oh God, I think he's gone black!' Blushing, Tohru idly pushed back the velvet cat ears attached to the head-band in her hair and ran a hand through her loose hair.
"Well umn, Hana..." She swallowed hard and tried again. "Hana and Uo thought I'd look cute as a catgirl." Nibbling on her lower-lip, she looked down. "Sorry, but Hana didn't have any material to make a cowgirl."

"Yes. You're cute Tohru," Haru grinned. "If I'm going to do this, I'm glad it's with a very cute girl." He stepped a little closer.

Holding her breath, Tohru closed eyes. 'Deja vu,' she told herself, remembering Haru had told her that the very first time she had met him and he had been black then too. "D...d...do what?" She spluttered, refusing to look at the white haired boy.

Planting his hands on the school girl's shoulders, Haru slowly turned her around and pressed her back against the door. He held her there as he stepped forward a little more, allowing only a breath to pass between them. His grin became cocky. "If I've got to kiss someone in here, I'm glad it's some as cute as you." He moved his lips so close to hers, he could feel her breath moisten his. "Besides, if anything should acntalntally should happen it wouldn't be embarrassing for me to try explain it away."

Turning three shades the colour of red, Tohru was thankful it was too dark for Haru to see she knew exactly what he meant. Her mind was already throwing images of her kissing the Ox and accidentally turning him into his Zodiac form in the heat of the moment; that she'd end up hava bia big wet muzzle just inches away from her face.
She needed to change the subject.
"Umn...how long have we been in here?"

"About two minutes. Don't tell me you're already bored with me. I've not even began. You have three more minutes with me..." The Ox dragged a finger down her slender throat then dragged it back and forth over her collar-bone. "And I intend to start using them wisely."

"Black Haru..." The Onigiri whispered under her breath, her voice shaky.
She had forgotten that darkness had cloaked Haru's closeness.

"You were expecting white?" He nibbled on her throat. "You always bring out the blackness in me. I can't help it. Everytime I think of you or look at you," he dragged his lips in a sweeping motion, lightly teasing. "Or touch you...I go black."
Slowly, little by little, he moved a hand down to one perfectly shaped breast and cupped it, moving the pad of his thumb over her rubbed until it strained to its peaainsainst the velvety material of her tight baby-tee.
Frowning, his steely eyes flashed in the darkness. "Do you mind?"

"Umn well uh..." She wasn't sure if it was White Haru who had managed to emerge long enough to ask if she minded what he was doing to her or if it was Black Haru asking for permission to do something else other than fondling her. In either case, she decided she didn't care. She had three more minutes left with the bad boy of the Sohma clan and she wanted to knowCTLYCTLY what the Ox was capable of without having anyone interrupt them time and time again. "No, um I guess not."
She shook her head as she altered her stance to a more comfortable one. The ever growing ache between her legs now making her fully aware of what she wanted.
With each light caress Haru gave her, the more she became aware of her body reacting to him.

That was it. That was all he needed.
The black side of him was full in control--any trace of White Haru being present was now no where to be found.
In one swift movement, he slid a hand to the rimming of Tohru's top and under it--snaking his way back up to the swell of the breast he had earlier been assulting through the material.
A low rumble stirred in his throat as felt Tohru draw in her breath and hold it, making her breasts become fuller in the palm of his hand.
He flicked at the hardened nipple still safely hidden behind a silken scrap of material passing as her bra.
"Hmph...nice..."

"E...e...excuse me?"
She tried to steady her breathing; her heart rate was off the charts as Haru's action was making her grow more moist in the single area she wanted him to explore. Her mind was in complete chaos. In the simple span of less than three minutes she had gone from a shy wall-flower to a girl who let the bad boy of the Sohma clan fondle her.

"Your bra...I'm guessing that's black too--to match your costume. I wonder...do your panties match too?" Fearing he had over-stepped the line with the question, he extracted his hand and slid it down the length of her left cheek. "Relax, I'm just teasing you."

Swallowing hard, Tohru bit down on her lower-lip until she could taste the sweet metalic essance of blood, taking Haru's hands in the both of hers, she smiled. It was time to show him she also had a playful side. "If you want to see if they match, then I'll show you!"

Gasping, Haru stumbled backward. Falling over something, he landed on his backside.
'Did she just say what I think she said?'
He tried to stiffle his laughter.
He liked this side of his Onigiri.

Crouching, Tohru crawled cat-like across the floor and over Haru; her hair sweeping downward, tickling his arms.
"What's the matter Haru, don't you want to find out?"
Grabbing at one of his hands, she brough it close to her, hovering just centremetres from her heated core.

"Of course but..." He began, snatching his hand away as he took in the scent of her intoxicating perfume and groaned.
She smelt of sex.
'Damnit I'd want to SEE you, not just FEEL you!' His mind growled, but he knew he couldn't voice that--at least, he didn't think so.

"But what?"
Tohru sat back on her heels and idly played with her hair, wondering if she had managed to scare Haru back into being white.

Sighing, Haru sat up and felt for her.
'She has such good eyes in the dark--almost like she is a cat.' He gave a wicked grin. 'It'd be so easy, to take the one thing that stupid cat desires most...'

"Well?"

"I haven't REALLY kissed you yet..."

"Oh!"

Snaking one through Tohru's hair, Haru pulled her close--close enough for him to feel her breath on his lips. "Tohru..." He flicked out the tip of his tongue, brushing it against her lips.

Trembling, Tohru whimpered as she automatically let one of her hands run through the Ox's hair, whilst her other sought out his free hand.
"Kiss me..." She whispered against his lips. "...Please."

Entwining his fingers with hers, Haru smiled as he pressed his lips against Tohru's. He ran his tongue along the length of her lower-lip, savouring the taste of her strawberry flavoured lip-gloss.
'This is something I could get use to...'

'Please, don't let him change...don't let him change...'
Shuffling forward, she leaned closer to the Ox as she closed her eyes and continued to idly play with his hair--trying anything to keep herself from letting herself give into the impluse to touch his chest.
Whimpering, she slightly parted her lips, inviting the Ox to deepen his playful kiss.

Seizing the opportunity, Haru plundered her mouth over and over with his tongue. Lapping and licking, getting to know every little part of the warm depth of her mouth.
Gently, he nipped at her tongue, capturing it and scrapping his teeth against it--playing with her.

With each movement he made with his tongue, he revelled in the fact that the Onigiri was mimicing him as if it was a game of follow the leader.
He found it oddly amusing. He had kissed a few girls since he had been taught to kiss, but he had never been kissed like the way she was kissing him.
He couldn't help but wonder if it was Tohru's first kiss--that she was exploring the different ways how to kiss, trying to find the right way to kiss him.

Frustration was getting to Tohru. She wanted to touch, her hands tingled with their own agitation.
Shaking loose Haru's grip on her hand and extracting her other hand from his hair, she placed her hands on Haru's shoulders and slid her hands down his arms as she continued to kiss him.
The feel of his bare arms beneath her finger tips jolted her with little shocks and made her pur, but she still wasn't satisfied.
She wanted more.
She pounced.

It took a moment for Haru to register Tohru's complete turn around. He paused in kissing her. She had completely caught him off guard, yet she was still so careful not transform him into his Ox form.
'I'm beginning to really adore this kitty...' He thought to himself with a grin.

"What's wrong Haru?" Tohru asked as she pulled back, looking at him as if she had done something wrong. "Did I umn...?" She looked down at her hands, feeling the biting sting of tears in her eyes.

Chuckling, Haru gently pushed Tohru backward until her back was against the closet door. "You just took me by surprise. Who would have thought you could go black too?" He joked and found one cat ear, flicking at it. "You really are too cute Tohru."
He ran a hand through her hair and moved closer to kiss her.
He kissed her forehead, her lashes, the tip of her nose and finally nibbled on her lips before he flicked his tongue at them to deepen let him kiss her senseless.

Balancing himself on his left hand and his knees, he used his right hand to stroke her. When he ran his hand over her heart-beat, he grinned into the kiss.
He decided he liked the way he made her heart beat so fast like she had just ran a race.
Daring himself, he slid his hand lower.

Purring, Tohru blushed as she closed her eyes and clung to Haru, losing herself in his kiss and touches.
Her mind gave a little giggle. 'Who would have thought, I'd have a black side too...' She agreed with Haru. 'But Haru, the things you do me...'
She gasped as she felt Haru's hand slide between her legs and cup her heated core, grinding his fingers against her through the material of her velvet pants.

Pausing, Haru looked at her through the darkness.
He forced himself to break their heating kiss.
He became concerned.
"Did I hurt you?"

Tohru shook her head.
"No. I...uh...just..."
She moved her hips against his hands, urging him to continue the pleasure as she sought out his lips again.

Obeying her silent plea, Haru slipped his hand beneath the waist-band of her pants and sought out her underwear.
He grinned as he found the silky feel of her underwear and theing ing warmth rising from within.
Slipping his fingers beneath the silky material, he groaned.
The silkiness of her curls felt soft, but as he slid a finger lower he could tell how much her body betrayed her.
He had her in a state of wanting, she was already hot and moist.

Moaning, Tohru threaded her fingers through the belt-loops of Haru's jeans and held on she enjoyed the pleasure the Ox was making her feel.
In fear of crying out and being heard, Tohilleilled herself to keep kissing Haru--even if it killed her--to remain silent as she felt her body kick into over-drive.
Haru had her on the threshold of wanting him to do more than just pumping his finger in her over and over again.
It was getting too much for her.

Shyly, she slid one hand around to the front of his jeans and ran her fingers down over a growing bulge.
She stiffled a giggle as she heard Haru suck in his breath at her slight touch.
The way she had an affect on the Ox, she found it delicious.

"DON'T touch me like that unless you're looking for major trouble," Haru growled in a husky voice as he moved his lips from Tohru's mouth to one of her ears, then worked his way down her throat: nipping and nibbling at it.

Working a second finger into Tohru, Haru closed his eyes and tried to imagine himself slipping his manhood into her rather than using his fingers. He wanted her, but there wasn't enough time and it wasn't the place.
As much as his body was protesting against it, he had to restrain himself.

"Is this what you want Tohru?" Haru asked as he moved his lips to her other ear. "For me to screw you?" He felt Tohru nod. "And..." He paused as he pushed his fingers into her a little harder and wiggled them around. "What about Kyo? I know you're still a fan of the cat."

Rocking her hips against Haru, Tohru found herself spiraling to the point of her climax, her breathing became rushed.
Biting one of Haru's shoulders, she shook her head.
She had to stay quiet. To restrain herself from climaxing.

Feeling Tohru's inner-walls of her womanhood clamp down around his fingers, Haru became aware she was about to lose control.
He decided to tease her by stopping.
Carefully, he withdrew his fingers and brought them to his lips.
"Well, miss kitty, what if I asked you out?"
He licked at his fingers.

Tohru was just about to answer when light flooded the closet.

"Alright love-birds, time's up!" Uo announced as she looked down at the couple on floor. She beamed with delight.

Haru looked up at Uo and cursed under his breath.
There wasn't enough time in the world to be alone with Tohru.
He sprung to his feet when he noticed Kyo hovering just behind the blonde.
"Tohru, it's been fun, I'm hoping to get more 'alone time' with you tonight." He smirked as helped OnigOnigiri to her feet.

Tohru nodded as she stood.

"What did YOU to her?" Kyo demanded as he pushed passed Uo and stood nose to nose with Haru. "You better not have touched her!"

"You know the rules to the game Kyo...touching and kissing is part of the game...but what I did to her, now THAT would be telling!"

"What?! Why you! I'm going to KILL you!"

"Awe Kyon-Kyon, leave him alone. It's all part of the game now come on...it's YOUR turn!"

"What? No, there's no way I'm going in there with you. I TOLD you you rigged that damn bottle!"

"Shut-up and get in there Kyon-Kyon!"

"How many times do I have to tell you you damn Yankee to stop calling me Kyon-kyon?!"
Kyo hissed as he held onto the sides of the closet, refusing to move.

"Stop hissing like a cat and get in there!"
With one hard shove, Uo pushed Kyo into the closet and slid the door closed.

"You know," Tohru laughed as he latched the closet. "I think Uo's as bad as Kagura, anyone would think she actually has a crush on Kyo."

Snatching up his discarded jacket, Haru shrugged into it. "Well then that's Kyo's problem...but right now, I'm much more interested in finding out the answer to my question."

"Question...question...question..." She looked around pretending to think of what Haru had asked.

"Tohru..." He growled.

"Umn...stay over tonight..." She lowered her lashes. "I'll give you my answer after A LOT of convincing why I should go out with you."

"You really are a black cat..." Laughing, Haru stole a quick kiss from Tohru as he grabbed her by a hand. "Happy birthday Tohru."

For once, he was glad his horoscope had been right.
