"The Day the Dark Fell in Love with The Light"

_LOG NOTE:

My god...what have I become?

When the day and dawn become as one

This is the day the dark and light

make love under the gazing stars

Rays of light.

What have they become?

-Dark's Journal_

Prolog:

They say that opposites attract, one fact that proves this true is the story about a sixteen-year-old male sliver fox named Dark. Dark's real name was Kevin Foot-Pad, but he prefers the name Dark. Dark follows the ways of the gothic, for example; he dresses in all black clothes and prefers to be left alone instead of being around other furries. His taste in music ranges in many area's but if you were to asked him yourself...honestly you would get no answer aside from a cold look...but let's just say that he was going to answer your question, it would be, "I like anything epic and with an orchestral background." He also keeps a privet journal with himself at all times which he uses to write down his gothic poetry and privet thoughts..._no one but himself is allowed access to it. _

As for his love life...Dark has never been in a relationship before in his whole life! _ Even as a young pup, he never even had a grammar school sweetheart. Dark really did not care, for he thought that relationships were a waste of energy and are only about one thing..._sex! Believe it or not Dark was really not interested in having sex with anyone! He believed that sex and or mating was about only two things; breeding and sexual relief...nothing else! As he figured, he wasn't interested in having any pups and for sexual relief...well...that's mostly a paws on approach! But that all change one day when he met a certain she-fox who not only turned his whole world upside down...she brought a light into his life and ironically..._her name was Cassandra Light!

** Second period at Dark's High School...** _

Dark exited out of his first period class and was currently heading to his next one. His first period class was Algebra-1 and he was more then anxious to get away from it! The next period class was one he was looking most forward too, English! The main reason Dark like this class was because he could focus on his poetry and or his thoughts within his journal and he had a nice little spot all the way in the back of the class were no one would bother him. He was just six door away from his class when suddenly a she-fox with bleach white fur and dressed in a bright pink shirt and navy blue pants came rushing through the crowd of other students, she looked around and when she noticed Dark she rushed up to him and took hold of his arm and whispered, "Just play along!" And proceeded to walk with him down the hall. Dark tried to shrug off her grip and politely asked her to release him, but she refused and replied with a whisper, "Shhh! Not just yet! Just keep walking!"

Dark didn't know what this vixen's game was and he didn't want any part of it, he was about to tell her to yiff off when suddenly three wolf jocks approached her. The alpha male of the group pointed at Dark and asked in a disgusted tone, "This is your boyfriend?!" The vixen nodded yes and joyfully replied, "Yes he is! Isn't he sweet?" Dark was about to object but she cut him off by elbowing him hard in the ribs and she replied, "Well we need to get to our next period class! Excuse us please!" And motioned for the wolf to stand aside and as they stepped aside, she proceeded forward past them at a rapid pace...more or less dragging poor Dark along with her.

They move forward quite a bit and passed Dark's next class by four doors and right up to now he had enough and grabbed her hand, pulled it off himself and more or less yelled, "JUST GET YOUR FUCKING HANDS OFF ME BITCH!" She was aghast by his outburst and looked at him with her mouth open for a few seconds and then she placed her hands on her hips, gave him a harsh look and then replied in a sarcastic tone, "Well aren't you a Mr. Grumpy butt!" Dark just glared at her with his ears draw back and replied in an annoyed tone, "Just leave me alone!" And started to head back the way they came. He only walked fourteen steeps when she quickly trotted up from behind him and as she slowed down to the same rate of pace he was walking she demanded, "What the hell is wrong you?!"

Dark just ignored her and continued walking and she continued, "Oh...I see! You don't like females, you like males!" Dark just gave her a cold glare and then focused his attention back on his walking. She didn't give up and continued walking with him and all the while she kept chatting to him. "So your gay! That's fine with me! Just you don't have to be so rude about it!" Dark then stopped, turned to face her and coldly replied, "I'm neither gay nor am I straight ! Please leave me alone!" And continued walking. She was stubborn and continued following him. She then angrily said to him, "No I won't leave you alone and you want to know why?" Dark didn't answer but she continued, "Because I don't do what others tell me to do!"

This bitch is worse then a case of fleas! Dark argued in his heard and as soon as he saw the door to his next class, he quickened his pace and walked right in, figuring he lost her and sat down at his desk in the back, Safe at home base! Dark thought to himself...until she stepped through the door! _ She walked right into the classroom and sat down right next to him in one of the empty desks and continued talking, "You think hiding in here will keep you safe? Dream on dark boy! I'm staying here for as long as I feel like it!" Dark glared at her and she glared back mockingly and said, "I can make faces too you know!" And then made a funny face at him and changed into another one..._Dark was not amused and just ignored her.

The school bell rang and even though this was not her next period class she stayed and continued talking to Dark. Will this bitch ever shut up? Dark argued in his head as she started talking about random stuff that Dark could give a shit less about. When the attendance was called off she lied and said she was new to the class but she misplaced her transfer slip. The teacher bought the lie and told her to get a new one at the end of the class period. Dark was shocked to see that the teacher was so easily fooled by her lie and just shook his head in disappointment. "I told you I was not going to leave!" She said to him in a very cocky tone and stuck out her tongue at him. Dark just let out a deep sigh, closed his eyes and decided it was time to give up and surrender to her terms, "What do you want from me?" He asked in a defeated tone.

She only smirked, twitched her tail and replied in a flirty and or playful tone, "I just want you to be nice to me and apologies for being so rude!" Dark's tail started to fuzz up and he clenched his teeth in anger. He counted down from ten in his hand and as his temper cooled down he turned to her and said in a serious tone, "I'm sorry I was rude to you outside." he took a deep breath and as he changed into an honest tone he continued, "I just wanted to be left alone! Now will you please leave me here in peace?"

She smiled at him and then leaned back in the desk and looked as if she was thinking hard on the topic and then she leaned in and playfully whispered, "Ok!" Dark let out a sigh of relief, but that was cut off short when she playfully continued, "But right now I can't leave the classroom...so it looks like your stuck with me until the next period!" Dark placed his right hand over his eyes, shook his head and tried desperately not to cry tears of frustration.

The vixen thrummed a pop song on her desk and hummed the lyrics to herself. Dark was whishing he brought his iPod today, but wishing grants nothing but heartache. He instead tried to focus all his attention at the teacher who was reading off today's lesson plan. Dark had both his ears tuned into the teachers voice but every time the vixen hummed something louder his right ear could not help but flick over in her direction and he had to correct it and willed it back forward...and once again she hummed something louder and it flicked back over her way. Satellite dishes are picking up an annoying disturbance in the right hemisphere sir! He mentally thought to himself in the third person and continued, Requesting permission to correct it! Permission granted! And after he thought that he turned to her and asked, "What is your problem?" She looked back over at him, pretended to be surprised and jokingly said, "Oh my god! It's actually talking to me!" Dark let out a sigh and continued, "Why are you here?" She only shrugged and sarcastically replied, "Why are we all here?" This bitch is really getting under my fur! Dark thought to himself and decided that if he was going to get anywhere he would have strike up a meaningful conversation with her...FUCK!

"Why where you running from the wolves?" He politely asked and she replied, "You mean those walking hard-on's covered with fur? Well...I was just minding my own business until tall dark and steroids started hitting on me..." The vixen then continued on and more or less took full control and monologue the whole conversation. Dark didn't really pay full attention to the useless bits, the only parts he took in were: Sex, don't like wolves, something about rumors about one of the wolves being arrested for date rape, and that she lied to him and said she had a boyfriend. "So you see...I was just looking for another fox and you where the only one in the area that looked like someone I would hang out with and so...I decided to use you to get away from the wolves!" After she said that a spark of flattery ignited within his heart but he quickly doused it with resentment.

"Well the next you go looking for a scapefox...just don't go looking for me!" He coldly said and then ended the conversation on that note. She crossed her arms at him and asked, "Why are you such a pain in the tail? Someone rub your fur the wrong way this morning?" Right after she said that, he turned to her and gave her a look that said: Why yes and guess who? She only giggled and then left him alone for a few minutes.

The class was closely coming to an end for the day and Dark had finally gotten the few minutes of peace he was hoping for. The vixen remained quiet for a twenty minute period and was busy holding up a pocket mirror and was grooming her ears at this moment. Dark could not help himself but watch her and was overcome by a strange tingly feeling all over as he looked on. She may be a pain in the tail...but she is so beautiful! Dark thought to himself as he watched her fix the fur around her ears and his eyes trailed down to her feet and slowly worked their way up and he continued thinking to himself, Nice frame work! Defiantly good breeding stock! And as he redirected his eyes over to her bushy and milky white tail he instantly went hard.

"I saw that Dark boy!" She playfully said in the same instant and he could not help but blush with embarrassment. He quickly turned his head and sheepishly replied, "Um...I don't know..." She then sarcastically interjected, "Yah, yah! I hard that before...you don't know what I'm talking about and you didn't know that your eyes were checking me out and that you liked what you were seeing...I hear that all the time!" And continued with her grooming. Dark's ears burned with embarrassment and he drew them down to hide the pink tinge that glowed with each beat of his heart and laid his head down on his desk and prayed for someone to turn feral, draw a gun and make him the first kill.

She giggled and said, "You may look! I would say don't touch...but you are already the no touchy type so I don't need to tell you that!" Dark only groaned and was feeling very ashamed for the sudden change in attitude toward her. Almost a whole hour he found the vixen very annoying...and just now he found her very attractive. What the hell is wrong with me? Dark thought to himself and just then the bell rang and all the students got up, packed their class work and walked out of the classroom. The vixen closed her pocket mirror with snap and returned it her purse. She got up and before she left, she said to Dark, "Well...looks like your finally rid of me." And started walking forward three steps, stopped, turned and headed over to Dark's desk and placed a note on it and said, "The names Cassandra by the way!" She winked at him, turned and slowly continued out of the classroom and as she turned right, she disappeared into the rushing crowd of other students outside.

What was that all about? Dark thought to himself and took hold of the note with his left hand, dragged it over the desk in his direction and lifted it up. It was folded over and as he opened the note to read what it had written, it read:

_As soon as you pull all the burs out of your tail

and are in a better mood

CALL ME!

555-224-2530

Cassandra Light

X-X-O_

Dark had to fight back the smile he was feeling and was in mortal combat with his will power. Rip it up! You don't need to get involved with her! One part of him said and the other part interjected, She likes you Dark! You mean to tell me you are going to let that milky white goddess get away from you? He started to rip up the note but suddenly something within him yelled, THINK ABOUT WHAT YOUR DOING IDIOT! What harm can come from one phone call? Dark groaned to himself and instead of ripping up the note he pocketed it and got up from his desk and left outside the classroom.

_ Later on at lunch brake... _

So far the rest of Dark's day was annoying vixen free and was just starting to get back to normal. Dark was at sitting at his favorite corner near the door to his next class, enjoying his lunch of nothing more then an apple and piece of chicken jerky. All the while he was eating, he was writing down his current thoughts within his journal,

_LOG NOTE:

They say that good things happen to those that wait; I have been waiting for all my life and so far nothing good has happened!

From the cradle to the grave

All our lives are enslaved!

Either by birth

By coerced enslavement

Emotional attachment

And hormonal confusion

Happiness is only an illusion!

Why do we continue to live

When life is obviously so cruel?_

Dark took another bite of his apple, closed his journal and pondered on his spontaneous poem. He looked over to the tiger couple who were busy making out in a shameless display of public affection and thought to himself, I bet they think life has handed them each other on a silver platter...wait till the get the bill! _ And laughed evilly to himself. Dark then took a bite from his jerky and turned his attention over to where a equine couple were busy having a public blowout. Dark focused his ears over in their direction and faintly overhead accusations of infidelity and or cheating. Dark smiled evilly to himself and thought, _Looks like the happy couple just found their bill to be way too pricy! That's what happens when you order a second helping of cherry pie! Dark finished off both his jerky and apple and as he chewed, he was right now reviewing one of his past entries within his journal,

_LOG NOTE:

Father and mother are right now fighting with each other, even now I can hear their voices penetrating the walks into my room. It feels like I'm right in the middle of it! Reason for the fight...my guess is father has just figured out why we got free cable when the cable-fox showed last week.

Two hearts join as one

But like the moon and sun

They can never be truly one!

The moon shines at night

The sun shines in the day

They are separate but equal!

And neither one truly knows

What the other one is doing

When they shine alone

Within the sky!_

Dark turned the page and read another one of his log entries and continued reading onto the next one. Just then he looked up and noticed that trouble was approaching very quickly. Here she comes again! Time to make myself scarce! Dark thought to himself and quickly stuffed his log book in his trench coat, got up and quickly headed off and hoped she didn't see him...too late!

"Hay Dark boy! You ready to be a decent fox now?" She playfully asked him and he angrily thought to himself, _Goddamn it! Isn't there any other male foxes at this school for her to annoy?! FUCK! _ Dark didn't want to get her in one of her stubborn moods by using his intimidating looks and angry outbursts, and so he instead turned to face her and replied in a very gentle tone, "I have always been a gentle-fox! I just don't like be around other beast folk...especially others of my own kind. Now if you would please excuse me." He said and resumed walking, but she continued following him and playfully replied, "Ooooo...sexy tone! Your attitude says go away...but your eyes say come get me!"

Well that confused Dark and he turned once again to face her and asked, "I beg your pardon? My eyes say what again?" She smiled wickedly at him and twitched her tail in a manner that basically said_: I love playing with you and making a nuisance out of myself!_ and then replied, "Your no different from any other male...only you try to be act all negative and anti-social, but really you want my attention and we both know why you are the way you are and why you hide behind that; "Don't fuck with me!" display of character!" Dark was getting sick of her games and was just about ready to let out an angry outburst, but before he did...he wanted to know what she thought his reasons were and asked, "Oh really? And what are they?" She walked up to him and playfully whispered, "Your scared!" and as she continued walking past him really close and she flicked her tail under his chin and kept walking. Dark paled and gulped when he heard that...because she hit the nail right on the head! He was scared!

Dark has always been a shy fox, he would make it a habit to hide from other's when he was in grammar school and spent most of his recess time reading comic books and or playing privet games all by himself. When he was in the eighth grade he came across a vampire book and as he read about the main character, a fox vampire named Dark, he instantly sympathized with the character and idolized him! In the vampire novel, Dark was feared that he would end up hurting and or killing those he fell in love with and or befriended. He made it a habit to keep others a safe distance. Dark felt the same way and started using the vampires named as his own and even dressed the part. The only thing he didn't agree with in the book was the ending...Dark eventually found someone one who showed him he no longer needed to be afraid about hurting her and some how her love turned him from a vampire back to a mortal and other love sick mumbo-jumbo that made Dark sick to his stomach.

Get ahold of yourself Dark! So she made a good guess! Big fucking deal! Dark thought to himself and shook his head to clear out his troubled thoughts and returned to normal. Dark looked behind himself to make sure she was well out of sight...she was! _ "Good riddance to troublesome nuisances!" Dark said to himself and headed back to his favorite corner. Dark was just about to sit back down and resume his writing when to his horror he noticed his privet journal was missing. He first felt around his coat and couldn't find it, he then quickly looked around his corner to make sure he didn't drop it and hustled back over to where he was standing when Cassandra started harassing him..._nothing!

A cold shiver shot down his spine and if his fur could have turned white as a ghost it would have! "That fucking bitch!" Dark growled to himself and continued, "Oh! I have never been so tempted to hit a female in all my life!" Dark then rushed ahead and anxiously sought out the thieving vixen. Goddamn it! I only pray she doesn't read it! Dark thought to himself and was very worried. Fortunately she didn't go too far and was just standing there, grinning and looked as if she were just waiting for him to show. She had both her hands behind her back and Dark knew what she was hiding back there.

Dark walked up to her, held his hand out and politely asked, "Please give it back!" She kept grinning and playfully asked, "Give what back?" Dark growled but desperately tried to keep his temper in check and replied, "Please give me back my journal! It is very sacred to me!" Cassandra kept smiling, closed her eyes, shook her head no and then pulled his log book out from behind her back, opened her eyes and playfully said, "Finder's keepers!" And started to opened the log book to read the first page. Dark gave out a look of horror and desperately begged her, "Please don't read it! I beg you!" Cassandra was taken back by his look of fear and thankfully closed the book. She held it out to him and as he quickly reached out to take it back she pulled it back out his reach and replied, "You want your book back? Then it's going to cost you!" And gave him a wicked smile.

Oh of all the...FINE! Dark thought to himself and reached into his pocket, pulled out his wallet and asked in an angry tone, "How much?!" Cassandra laughed and playfully replied, "Keep your money hun! You'll need it when you take me out to see the movie that's playing tonight!" Dark cocked his head in confusion and asked, "Excuse me?" Without missing a beat she replied, "You heard me! Take me out to see the movie and I'll give you back your little black book! Deal?" And held out her hand to shake on the agreement. _This vixen has got more nerve then I thought possible! And she has me by the balls too! GODDAMN IT! _ Dark thought to himself and reluctantly reached out and shook her hand in agreement and replied, "Deal! Now can I please have my journal back."

Cassandra thought for a second and calmly replied, "No...I think I'll keep this as collateral to insure that you will keep your word. It's nothing personal...just I don't trust you to keep your end of the bargain." Dark let out feral growl and she growled back mockingly and replied, "You can growl like a mangy old wolf all you like hun! I'm still keeping this book...but if you live up to your part of the bargain and show up at the cinema, I'll give it back to you!" Dark forced himself to calm down and asked, "And how do I know you'll keep your end of the bargain?" She only smiled, walked up to him, tickled him under the chin and replied, "You don't! That's what makes this deal equal!" And continued walking past him and as she kept walking she called back, "Seven thirty p.m. at the Cat Scratch Cinema! Be there or else I'll have a new book to read!"

Dark was very piss-off now, he walked up the wall nearby, let out a very angry growl and with all his might he smashed his fist into the wall, but all that did was make his hand hurt like hell! For the rest of the school day, Dark shouted none stop obscenities at her within his head.

Dark's sixth period class ended fifteen minutes ago and he was currently walking home. Every two minute he could not help but feel around the empty spot where he always carried his journal within his coat. If it were anyone else; they would only be missing something very personal to them...to Dark it felt like someone had just stolen his soul! That journal was more then just a book of personal thoughts to Dark! It's value was indescribable and he quietly pined to have it back. FEMALES! MOTHER FUCKING FEMALES! OH HOW I HATE THE MOTHER FUCKING THINGS! Dark angrily debated to himself and continued walking down the sidewalk to his home.

Dark entered through the door into his house and looked around to see what was going on. His mother was busy in the kitchen cooking and or doing dishes, his father was in the living room busy reading the newspaper and his kid brother was playing video games on the TV. Dark just walked in quietly and closed the door behind him. "Welcome home Kevin! Have a good day at school?" His mother called over to him and he only replied with a groan and his mother sympathetically replied, "Oh...I'm sorry to hear that hun!" His kid brother look over to him and called out, "Hay Kev! Want to help me beat the sixth level?" Dark only shook his head no and started down the hall to his bedroom. The door to his bedroom door had a sign on the front that read, "If only you knew the power of the dark side!" No matter how gloomy he felt, reading that sign always brighten his day. He opened the door to his room and entered inside. The room was decorated with posters to epic gothic bands and he had a huge book shelf that was filled with stories about vampires, werewolves and poetry ranging from Lord Bryon, Poe and so-on. The front of the Book shelf had two books proudly displayed on a bat wing pedestal. Mark Twains: The Mysterious Stranger and J. Edwards: Immortal Love. These two books touch him in so many ways and he has treasured them ever since.

Dark took off his trench coat and placed it on his computer desk, reached over, picked up his iPod and laid down on his bed. Things would have been perfect if only he had his journal with him. He let out a sad sigh and told himself that he will get it back tonight and turned on his iPod and started listening to Within Temptation's song: "The Howling." The lyrics; "Fallen asleep from our vanity may cost us our lives!" And "From the hell that we're in, all that we are is faded away!" Always spoke to him the loudest each time he listened to this song. If in fact these were the very first words he wrote down within in journal, right on page one.

Dark let out sigh and switched his play mode to shuffle and pressed play again. Kamelot's song: The Haunting (Somewhere in Time) started and as the song started playing he could not help be think of the vixen who had made his day a living hell. First he envisioned her as a soul stealing succubus...but the more he thought about her, and as the song played he could not help be allow beautiful visions of her dancing in time with music and singing along with the female lyrics. Eventually he started the song over and this time he sang along himself and continued to envision Cassandra singing along with him. This made him smile and he continued singing.

When the song ended he took the head phones off and said to himself, "What hell is wrong with you Dark? Why are you dreaming about this vixen?! She not only torment you...she stole something very valuable to you!" Dark then asked himself in the third person, My heart? That question shocked even himself and he sat up in the bed and asked in a very confused tone, "What the fuck did I say?" And shook his head in denial of ever thinking it.

For the past hour, Dark was reading the vampire novel he had under his pillow and right up to now he decided to call it quits and marked the sentence he was at with his ballpoint pin and bookmarked the page by dog-earing the corner and returned it under his pillow. He looked at the time and it was almost five o'clock. _The cinema is almost an hour away on foot...might as well get ready. _ Dark thought to himself and walked over to his chested draws, picked out his best clothes and head out of his bedroom door and into the bathroom to take quick shower.

After he dried himself off and put on his black silk pants and shirt, complete with a black silk vest and black box shoulder dress coat. They way he figured it...if he was going to have to go out on a date...he was going out with style. Ironically he choose this dress setup to match his favorite vampire character, Lord Dark himself. Dark walked over to the mirror and checked himself out, straightened out of aliment curves and debated on what would make this outfit complete. Ah yes! My red and blue flame neck tie! _ And after he thought that he quickly headed into his bedroom and took out the said tie from his chested draws and put it on. It took three tries to get it fixed straight but he got it on the third try and as he stood in the doorway he dreaded what his folks were going to say. _Might as well face the music! He thought to himself and walked into the living room.

The minute he walked into the middle of the living room his kid brother looked over at him and missed his mark playing his video game all the while he looked at Dark with his eyes and mouth open wide. "WOW! Were are you going!" His kid brother asked out loud in surprise and both his mother and father looked over his way and did almost the same thing. Might as well just say it Dark! He thought to himself and reluctantly announced, "I have a date tonight." And right after he said that his mother dropped something that was glass in the kitchen and it shattered on the floor with a loud crash. "Like with a girl?" His brother asked still in shock and Dark replied only with a glare. "OH MY GOD! KEVIN'S GOING ON A DATE WITH A GIRL!" Dark didn't like the way his brother said that...he made it sound like he was only dating males...which he wasn't! Both of Dark's parents were shocked, surprised and very happy to hear the news. He father walked up to him, gave him a big hug and joyfully said, "THAT'S MY BOY!" and his mother quickly interjected, "Who is she dear?" and his father then jokingly interjected, "Who cares! Our boy is finally coming out of his shell! This calls for campaign!" The interjections between the two went on for ten minutes and right up to now Dark decided it was time to make a retreat before mom and dad started planning his wedding...so to speak!

Dark then held up his hands to and said, "Quiet please!" And when everyone quieted down he continued, "I'm only going to see a move with her! Nothing else!" He mother then replied, "Of course dear! We were just happy to see that you are now starting to socialize with other furries, that's all hun." And after she said that she walked up to him and affectingly stroked his face and then said, "My little pup is going out on his first date." And tears of joy started in her eyes. Oh for fuck sakes! I'm only going out to get my fucking journal back! Dark barked at everyone in his head. Just then his little brother asked, "What breed is she? Fox, wolf, coyote...tiger?" Dark only replied with a glare that said: Mind your own fucking business! His brother back down and said, "Well soooooorry for asking!" And went back to playing his video games. Dark looked over at the clock on the wall to check the time and noticed it was getting late and then said, "Well...I need to start walking, the Cat Scratch is a good hour walk." His father patted him on the shoulders and said, "Nonsense! No boy of mine is walking to his first date!" And reached into his pocket, took out the car keys and handed them to Dark and said, "Take the car! Just don't scratch it!" And gave him a wink. Oh...so now father lets me use the car! That just typical of him! Dark thought to himself as he took the keys and thanked his dad.

Dark has had his driver's license for almost four months now...just his dad never let him use the car for anything other then life or death circumstances. Oh my life is really in danger now dad! That vixen is going to chew me up and swallow me whole! He continued ranting as he got into the car, started it and after he pulled out the driveway he drove straight to the theater.

Dark pulled into the parking lot, parked the car, unfastened his seat belt and got out of the car. After he locked the car door he headed toward the theater and sure enough Cassandra was standing there, dressed in pitched black Levi jeans and a black vampire pride shirt. Dark's eye light up and he head to bite his tongue to keep from making a wolf whistle at her. Damn she's got good taste! Dark thought to himself and continued walking up to her. She instantly noticed him walking up to her and as she looked at him, her eyes also lit up and she playfully said, "YUMMY! That suit and tie is fucking yummy!" And quickly walked up to him and ran her hands curiously down his suite and explored ever angle.

Dark didn't like being touched but he keep his maw shut this time and submitted to her curious touch. She then looked him in the eyes and then said in a seductive tone, "Hmmm...By the way your dressed...I wonder if there is something else you want beside your journal." And flicked her tongue at him in a suggestive manor. Dark hated to admit it...but that really turned him on! This female is very dangerous! Watch yourself or else you will be her slave! Dark warned himself and in his cold professional tone asked, "Do you have my journal?" She stepped back, placed her hand on her hips and in a playfully/annoyed tone replied, "Is that all you ever think about? My journal! My journal! I swear your always bitching about it! Can't you just forget your fucking journal and focus on the fact that your taking me out to see a movie?" All you're missing is the gun bitch! Dark mentally yelled at her. He was hinting it was a shotgun date and nothing more.

Dark then said, "I just want to make sure it's safe and that you have held your part of the bargain." Cassandra twitched her tail left and right and then said, "It's safe for now...I didn't bring it with me for I didn't want to accidentally drop it within the cinema...and I really didn't expect you to show! I guess whatever is in that journal is worth quite a lot to you!" Dark only groan and repeated his question, "Did you bring it or not?" Without missing a beat she replied, "It's in my bedroom under my mattress. Don't worry it's safe there! When the movies over we'll both head over to my house and you'll get your journal back. Happy?" Dark growled quietly to himself and only nodded yes in agreement. She then walked up to him, took his arm in hers and walked him over to the ticket booth. "Two please!" Cassandra said in a happy tone to the Coyote employee. Coyote then stamped out two tickets, told them the price and Dark took out his wallet and paid the total. After getting their tickets and heading into the building Dark looked over at Cassandra and asked, "Popcorn?" She looked shocked at him, raised her hand and tried to finger out whatever it was that was blocking her ears and made her think that Dark as actually being nice to her and asked, "I'm sorry...what did you say?"

Dark rolled his eyes and politely repeated his question, "Do you want any popcorn or anything?" Cassandra looked suspiciously at him for a second and quickly changed into a smile and said, "That would be sweet! Oh and two drinks too!" Dark nodded in agreement and headed over to the snack line with her and when their turn came he ordered an extra large popcorn with two large drinks. Right after they got there cinema snacks, it just dawned on Dark that he didn't know what movie they were watching. He looked over at Cassandra and asked, "Um..." Just then Dark forgot her name and thought to himself, Damn...I forgot her name! What was it again...something light... And then asked, "Um...Light?" She looked at him and replied, "Light? What are you playing at?" Dark then continued, "I apologies...I forgot your fist name, I only remember your last."

Cassandra giggled and said, "You want to hear something funny? I don't know your name at all! What is it by the way?" Dark smiled and replied, "Dark." Cassandra laughed at that and asked in a happy tone, "Dark? Like in the book Immortal Love?" Dark was surprised she knew the book and asked in a surprised tone, "You read the book also?" Cassandra nodded yes and replied, "Yes! I love the story...but I hated the ending! I say Dark should have turned Fran and they would have been together forever!" Dark was now very surprised for that was exactly what he thought and said, "Me too! I think Lord Dark made a big mistake giving up his immortality! For now he can die just as easily as she could! He runs the risk of being trapped the rest of his life without her!" Dark and Cassandra chatted about the book for a few minutes and when they were done talking Dark had a new found respect for Cassandra and was now more comfortable being around her..._for it felt good to be with someone who shared a similar taste in books. _ "So...um..." Dark began and then continued, "What movie are we seeing?" Cassandra laughed and replied, "It's the new vampire flick, Blood Moon!" Oh my god! I have been wanting to see that movie! Damn this vixen has good taste! Dark thought to himself and gave her a warm smile. She looked very surprised at him and asked in a playful tone, "Dark...are you smiling at me? Should I be worried?" Dark just gave a chuckle and said in a warm tone, "I smile when I feel like it...right now I feel like it. That's all!"

Cassandra chuckled and as she ran her hand down his face she cooed, "You should smile more often...I find it very sexy!" Dark your falling into trap! He braked mentaly at himself in his head and just ignored it. Dark then offered her his hand and quoted, "Take my hand my beloved Fran, on swift bat wing we shall face our destiny together!" Cassandra let out an aw, for he was quoting a passage from Immortal Love, where both Fran and Dark made their escape from vampire hunters by flying together though in the air. She then took his hand and quoted, "But Dark my love! The dawn is almost upon us and Marcus is hell bent on your destruction! How can we possible escape?" Dark with out missing a beat replied the quotation, "The devil gave me wings so that I may fly! Tonight I lend them to you and Marcus and the dawn be damned! We shall escape together!" And on that note the both walked together hand in hand towards the cinema room that played their movie. After the ticket checker took there tickets and allowed them to pass they seated themselves within the in the middle row and waited for the show to start.

Dark was enjoying the show, the movie was actually following the book pretty closely...aside from some missing parts and action sequences...it was actually turning out pretty good. Cassandra then leaned and laid her head on his shoulder and sighed. Dark looked over at her and asked, "What wrong? Aren't you enjoying the movie?" She looked at him and replied, "I like it just fine...it just...well..." Dark sensed she was unhappy about something and giving into his masculine instinct to comfort a distressed female he wrapped his arm around her and held her close to him. She was taken back by his display of affection and playfully said, "Um...Sir...I think I'm setting next to the wrong person, for my date would never do something like this!" Dark laughed and replied, "Fran also thought Dark had no heart when she first met him...but when he saved her from the wolves that were hell bent on raping her she leaned different!" Cassandra let out an aw and replied, "What know something funny?" Dark look over at her and asked, "What?" She smiled at him and replied, "You did save me from the wolves...just it wasn't your decision...but you still saved me anyway!" Dark chucked at the similarities that were playing out within his favorite book and continued to hold her and watched the movie together.

After the movie came to an end, both Cassandra and Dark stayed behind though the ending credits. Dark looked over to Cassandra, her eyes were closed, she was breathing very steadily and for a second he thought she was asleep and asked, "You ok Light?" She opened her eyes, looked up at him and replied, "I'm fine Dark...just a little tired." There something else...something she's hiding. Dark thought to himself and feeling that it was none of his business he didn't press her for more information.

After the ending credits stopped rolling, they both got up and left the cinema room and headed outside building. Dark then said to Cassandra, "I can give you a lift home in my dad car...and I can also get my journal at the same time." Cassandra smiled at him, accepted his offer and then they both head over to the car and got in. Dark turned on the engine and asked, "Where do you live?" She gave the address and after she said that he drove out of the parking lot and took her home.

As they approached the street address she gave him, she pointed over to a house and he pulled into the driveway, turned the car engine off and they both got out. Cassandra and Dark walked up to her front door and Dark stopped short and said, "Um...I'll just wait outside while you get my journal." Cassandra grinned at him and said, "What? Do I need to invite you in like the real Dark?" Dark then replied, "Um...no...it's just...well...I don't see your folks around and I don't think it would be proper for me to..." She scuffed at that reply and said, "My folks are right now currently celebrating their 17th wedding anniversary together in Las Vegas and won't be back for three more days! Come inside!" She then continued in a playful tone, "I invite you to enter into my home!" And then giggled. This is a big mistake...but I really need to get my journal back! Dark thought to himself and then walked inside with her.

Cassandra's house was surprisingly similar to his and the choice in furniture and wall decorations almost matched up to something his own mother would have chosen. "My room's this way! Come on then!" She said to him and he reluctantly followed. She opened the door to her room and stepped inside, as Dark followed behind her, he was surprised to see that she had an apparition for the gothic side of life. Aside from the suggestive posters of half dress he-foxes on her wall, she had movie posters of vampire flicks and one or two posters of some gothic bands he liked. Overhead over the bed was a bunch of plastic bats and along side her bed was a small book case filled with vampire novels. Some Dark instantly recognized and some he never heard of before.

Cassandra reached under her mattress, pulled out his journal and held it out to him. He reached over to take it but she pulled it back from his grasp and replied, "There is one more price you need to pay to get this back!" Great...what dose she want now? Lobster and caviar? Dark thought to himself and then asked, "What is now?" She smiled and replied in a flirty tone, "A kiss." And then patted the left side of her muzzle with her finger to point out where she wanted to be kissed. Dark was surprised by that answer, but felt that there was nothing wrong with a peck on the cheek and move over to kiss the area she pointed out, but to his surprise she quickly turned her head and locked muzzles with him instead and wrapped her arms around him. Dark saw stars and it felt like he had needles in his bloodstreams for his whole body tingled and just then she inserted her tongue into his maw and at that moment he almost collapsed from the passion of it and slid out her arms and fell back onto the bed, all the while trying not to faint.

"Holy...fuck!" Dark said in a flabbergasted voice and continued, "I have never kissed a female before!" Cassandra only giggled laid down next to him and replied, "Was it as good as kissing a male?" Dark should have been insulted by that, but strangely...h_e found it amusing_ and started laughing. He then replied in a laughing tone, "I have never kissed anyone in my whole life, aside form pecks on the cheeks with my mom...but that is all!" She looked at him with a devilish look and replied, "So...that means that you have never..." Dark had a feeling that he knew what she was going to ask and just to be sure that was indeed what she was asking, he replied, "Never...what?" She then ran her hand up and down his belly, it felt good and he didn't protest this time and only, closed his eyes and let out a moan of approval. She then seriously asked, "You have never mated before have you?" Dark figured that's what she was going to ask and only replied by shaking his head no. She then moved over, climbed on top of him and straddled his hips. Dark's heart started racing with fear and he started trembling. She gave him a half smile and asked, "Do you want too?" Dark was now very scared and replied in a scared tone, "Um...I think I better go...Yes! I better leave now!" And tried to get up but she pushed him back down and asked in a combination of seductive and playful tone, "Why are you so scared? You're the first male I have ever come across who is scared to mate with me! What's wrong?"

Dark shook uncontrollably and replied in a shaky voice, "P-please...I-I j-just d-don't k-know h-how!" Way to go shit head! Why don't just go on and tell her you don't know where puppies come from! Dark thought to himself in a scolding tone and felt very foolish. Honesty he knew how...just he couldn't think of any other reply to say under the stress of the situation. Cassandra only giggled and replied in a lustful tone, "Then maybe I should teach you! Don't worry...I'll be gentle!" Dark gulped and tried to find an excuse to get away...his mind was screaming run for the hill...but his body was screaming for him to stay for the lesson! He was in mortal combat with both his body and mind and didn't know which one to follow...until she moved down and gave him a rich warm kiss on the lips and then he knew his answer...Let the Mating-101 lesson begin!

Dark made out with her...god only knows how long! His mind was in another world and he was unaware of the fact that she was removing her pants and panties the whole time they reminded muzzled locked. She then ran his zipper down and worked his hard sheath out from inside his paints and underwear and when she brought him fully into the open she asked, "Are you ready?" Dark was taken back from the question and asked in a confused tone, "Ready for what?" She giggled and as she brought herself into a better position on top of his hips, and then she replied in a lustful tone, "This!"

And on that note Dark felt his male hood side into a hot, wet and wonderful fleshy cavern between her legs. Dark shot up in the bed from the feeling and looked down to see that he was indeed inserted between her legs. There was no word to describe what he was feeling and he was enthralled by the moment. She then pushed him back down and replied in a cooing voice, "Just relax...and let me do all the work." Dark gulped, nodded in agreement and laid back down. She trust herself down and he let out a passionate moan at the feeling of sliding into her womb, she then brought herself up and once again thrust down. _God...If you're planning to take me away this day...could you please wait until she's done with me firs_t! Dark prayed closed his eyes and allowed Cassandra to take full control.

Dark was in total ecstasy and for some strange reason he spontaneously and quietly sung in a beautiful epic tone. "Maybe the sound of your voice made me believe that...that you were her..." Cassandra stopped thrusting down for a sound, slowly opened her eyes and almost in perfect time she sung the continuation in an epic tone of her own, "Just like the river disturbs my inner peace..." Dark was surprised she knew the lyrics to the song he was singing continued in his epic tone, "Once I believed I could find...just a trace of her beloved soul..." And then she giggled and continued the next part, "Once I believed she was all...then she smothered my beliefs..." Dark smiled and decided to see how far she would go then sung, "One cold winter's night...I may follow her voice into the river..." And then they both sung together in unison, "Somewhere in time I will find you and haunt you again!" And then stopped. Dark laughed for a second and asked in a panting voice, "You don't strike me as a Kamelot fan!" She only smiled and as she slowly thrust down and made him give out another joyful moan, she answered. "There's a lot about me you don't know!" Dark only smiled and closed his eyes and once again savored the moment of her taking his male hood deep into her womb.

Dark suddenly felt his climax quickly starting to approach and pulled back from his moment of ecstasy and said, "Light! I'm about to..." Cassandra wasn't paying attention, her eyes were closed and her muzzle was raised in a display of unending pleasure and started to quicken her thrusts downward on him. Dark was feeling a little worried and once again called out, "Light! I said I'm about to cum!" She didn't pay attention and suddenly he felt her organism and at that same moment he lost control and released his seed inside her and gave four hard thrusts forward, causing her to moan in pleasure with each thrust. She then collapsed on top of him, she was breathing very hard and he lovingly wrapped his arms around her. Cassandra then said in an exhausted voice, "Wow Dark!...*PANT*...I have never orgasmed first before!" Dark laughed weakly for a second and replied in panting voice, "I have never mated before!" She looked up at him and then asked, "How was it?" Dark looked lovingly at her and replied, "Indescribable Light!...indescribable!" She giggled at that and rested her head upon his chest for a few moments and then pulled herself off him, stood up, picked up her panties and pants off the floor and headed for the bathroom.

Dark sat himself up and returned his now re-sheathed member back into his pants, zipped himself up and just then he smelled something very strange. He sniffed off in many directions and then noticed it was coming very strongly from his groin. He reached into his pants and after he felt his hand come in contact with some leftover slimy climax. He quickly pulled his hand out and sniffed it. OH SHIT! He thought to himself and paled as he quickly realized what that smell was...she was in heat! Dark gulped and just then Cassandra came back into the room completely clothed. She reached down, picked up his journal off the floor and then tossed it over to him and said, "Here's your book back. I bet you got something truly memorable to write in it this time!" And then gave him an affectionate smile and wink.

Dark took hold of his journal, stared at it for a few seconds and then laid it alongside himself on the bed. He looked up to her with a very worried face and she cocked her head at him with a look of confusion and asked, "Something wrong hun?" Dark didn't say anything for a few seconds but then finally said, "Your in heat." She only giggled and replied in a reassuring tone, "Oh don't worry about that! I've mated with countless males when in heat and I haven't gotten pregnant yet!" And then her face gloomed and she continued, "I'm probably damaged goods to tell the truth." What she meant was; she figured that she could never get pregnant no matter how hard she tried.

Dark didn't know what to say and only nodded his head, picked up his journal, got up and as he started to walk passed her he asked, "You want me to stick around a little bit longer?" She was touched by his offer to keep her company a little bit longer and raised her hand and stroked his muzzle. This time he savored her touch and as he closed his eyes he affection lapped at her hand. She giggled and quoted, "I fear you not Dark! For even though you are truly dead...I know you still have your immortal soul!" It was a quotation from the book Immortal Love, it was when Fran approached Dark and tamed his bloodlust by showing him she didn't fear him. Dark then replied with the second part to the quotation, "I feel the hunger! It screams for me to take your life...but my heart screams louder! I would never harm you my love! I would let the dawn take me first, before I would do such a thing!" And after he quoted that she moved in and locked muzzles with him.

After she pulled back she said, "I'm very tired right now Dark...you better get home." Dark, turned and headed for the door and before he left he said back to her, "I'll call you when I get home! I promise!" Cassandra scuffed after hearing that, obviously she didn't believe him and playfully motioned for him to get out. After he exited outside the door, he walked over to his car, opened the door, got in and started the engine. He looked over to the doorway and saw her standing there watching him, he waved at her and she waved back and on that note he shifted into reverse, pulled out of the driveway and headed straight home.

Dark pulled into his the driveway at his house, turned the engine off, opened the car door, got out, closed the door and headed up to the front door to his house. He opened the door and as he entered inside he noticed his family was currently enjoy a late night TV dinner and watching a movie. As he closed the door behind him, his mother called over to him, "How was the date dear?" Dark replied, "It was fun!" Suddenly every one turned and looked over at him in shock. He was confused by what was going one and just then his kid brother jokingly replied, "Kev had fun?! Mommy...I'm scared!" After he said that they started laughing. Dark was a little annoyed, but just shrugged it of. "You want something to eat dear?" His mother then called over to him. "No...I'm fine...just a little tired right now." Dark walked over to the kitchen table and as he laid the car keys on the table he called out, "The car keys are on the table in the kitchen dad!" His dad only replied, "Ok! Thanks bud!" And resumed watching the TV.

Dark then walked over to the kitchen phone, reached into his pocked and to his horror he couldn't find Cassandra's phone number. He checked all his pockets and just then realized it was in his other shirt.

Dark hustled into the bathroom, pulled his shirt from the hamper and check his shirt pocket and to his relief he found it. "Whew!" He said out loud and headed back over to the phone.

He picked up the phone receiver, looked at the number and dialed it. As he listened on the phone he heard four rings and then a female voice say, "Hello?" Dark instantly recognized it and replied, "Hello Light! I told you I would call!"

Dark and Cassandra chatted on the phone for almost a whole hour, mostly about vampire books, gothic music and some reflections on the love making they did this night. Cassandra then said she needed to head off for bed and that she was happy that he kept his promise and called her when he got home and that most other males wouldn't do that. Dark reminded her that he was not like other males and on that note he said his goodbyes and that he looked forward to seeing her at school tomorrow. She replied in kind and hung up. Dark was still smiling to himself and he felt something very strange going on. He looked behind himself and noticed his tail was waging very happily. Dark just laughed and jokingly said to it, "You're going to rune my reputation I hope you know!" And just then his tail waged even harder. Dark just shook his head and walked over to his bedroom door, opened it and went inside.

Right after he changed into his formal wear, he was right now laying on his bed, listening to his iPod and writing down something within his journal.

_LOG NOTE:

My god...what have I become?

When the day and dawn become as one

and the moon and sun shine as one

This is the day the dark and light

make love under the gazing stars

Rays of light.

What have they become?_

Dark then re-read what he wrote and pondered on his poem for a minute, and then said out loud "Hmmm...what have they become indeed?!" And turned his journal back to the second page and read what he wrote down almost three years ago.

_LOG NOTE:

Only a mad-fur can truly find happiness! In their mind they are kings of the world and are ignorant to the realities that they are nothing and that they have nothing! How truly lucky they are!

Within my mind

I am lost to time

The world's cruelty

Is lost to me!

Within my dreams

I am truly free

And death can

No longer reach out

And lay clam to me!_

Dark laughed at that thought for a moment and then said, "Then I have truly lost my mind! For I am right now very happy!" Dark decided to call it a night and then closed his journal, turned off his iPod and placed them over on the table next to him and turned off the light. Dark folded his arms behind his head and happily said to himself, "I have mated with a female for the first time!" And then let out a long joyful sigh and fell fast to sleep.

_ First period the next day... _

Dark was walking to his first period class and was not looking forward to it, I should have just stuck with basic math instead of algebra...oh well! Dark thought to himself as he walked. He was just three doors away from his first period class when all of a sudden he heard rapid footsteps trotting up very quickly from behind him, just then everything went black and he felt someone's hands wrap around his head and both of his eyes. "Guess who!" A very familiar female voice said from behind him. Dark just shrugged loose her grip and said in an annoyed tone, "Light please! I don't like being touched!"

Cassandra rushed ahead and stopped him from proceeding forward, she stood there in front of him with her arms cross and she had a wicked grin pasted on her face and she replied, "Oh really? Hmmmm...that's strange...because I don't remember you complaining last night when I rode your cock!" Dark was aghast she said that out loud and he quickly shushed her and replied in a frighten tone, "Don't say that out loud! Damn! You want the whole school to know?!" She continued grinning and playfully replied, "Maybe I do...want me to yell it this time?"

Dark gulped and his eyes shot wide with fright and he said in a squeaky tone, "You wouldn't!" She then giggled and then reassured him she wouldn't. Dark let out deep sigh of relief and just then she took hold of his arm and started walking with him. Dark really didn't feel comfortable be touched by someone in public and gently removed her grip from his arm and once again said, "Please! Like I said, I don't like being touched!"

Cassandra once again crossed her arms at him, twitched her tail in an annoyed manner, tsked and replied with a disappointed tone, "Oh Dark...Dark...Dark...Dark...I'm sorry, but I'm going to have to brake you of this no touchy thing! It's really starting to rub my fur the wrong way!" Dark didn't know what she was talking about and decided to just disregarded it...until she took hold of him and forced him into a corner. She held him from behind and had both his arms locked behind his back with her left arm and with her right she started rubbing up and down his belly. Dark tried to brake free, but she held him in place. Holy fuck she is strong! What the hell is she doing? Dark argued in his head and he yelled back to her in a quiet voice, "Light! What the hell do you think your doing? LET ME GO!" She shushed him and relied, "Not so loud Dark...you don't want to draw attention over this way do you?"

Thankfully there was really no one walking by and those that did, really didn't pay any attention to them. Dark once again asked, "What are you doing?!" She only giggled and replied in a seductive tone, "You leave me no choice Dark...I have to brake you!" And right after she said that she slid her hand down into his pants and started feeling around. Dark only gulped and whimpered. She slid down a little further and cooed into his ear, "Where is it...where is it..." Just then she found what she was looking for and took hold of his sheathed cock, Dark let out a surprised yelp and then she said, "There's your puppy maker!" And then pulled down the skin of his sheath, took hold of his shaft and started jerking him off slowly. "LIGHT! WHAT THE FUCK DO YOU THINK YOUR DOING!?" Dark yelled to her in a very high pitched tone.

She then started nibbling his ears and replied, "I'm jerking you off Dark!" She giggled and then continued, "Now lets see...how do you males do it...is it something...LIKE THIS?" And after she said that she grabbed hold of him at the base of his shaft and milked him upwards and then repeated it. Dark quietly moaned with passion and then started to close his eyes. OH MY GOD...SHE JERKS OFF BETTER THEN I DO! Dark yelled in his head and almost lost himself to the passion of the moment, when suddenly he snapped himself out of it. "LIGHT! STOP! PLEASE!" Dark begged in his high pitched voice. She only giggled and replied in her playful tone, "No until you apologize!" Dark then asked in a panting high pitched voice, "Apologize for what?!" She tsked him and then said, "Well...if you don't know...then it looks like I'm going to have to make you seed your pants!" And just then she started masturbating him faster. Dark felt his climax quickly starting to approach and he dreaded the thought of have an orgasm in public. Desperate to get her to stop, he then squeaked, "OK! OK! OK! I'M SORRY! YOU CAN TOUCH ME ANYTIME YOU WANT! NOW PLEASE STOP!" She didn't show mercy and as she shook her head no said, "Say it like you mean it!" And started jerking him faster. Dark gulped and tried again, "I'm sorry!" She once again shook her head no and then leaned in and cooed into his ear, "Cum for me!" THAT'S NOT FAIR! Dark yelled in his head and he was just seconds away from spilling his seed. He summoned up all his will power and replied in a honest tone, "Light I'm sorry! You can you touch me anytime you want! Now will you please stop?!" She then stopped jerking, but kept a firm hold on him and replied, "That's better!" Dark let out a sigh of relief...but that was cut off short when she moved in and stuck her tongue into his ear and whispered in a lustful tone, "Cum for me!" And just then nibbled around his left ear with very teasing bites..._THAT DID IT! _

Dark threw his head back, started thrusting his hips forward and ejaculated in his pants. GOD DAMN YOU LIGHT! YOU MOTHER FUCKING BITCH! GOD DAMN YOU!!! Dark yelled at her in his head and started whimpering. She only giggled and as she removed her hand from his pants and said, "Ooooo...it's nice and warm!" And then to Dark's shock she licked her hand and whispered, "Salty...but very sweet!" And just then she let him go. Dark collapsed onto the floor, still panting and tried to yelled at her...but all that came out was intangible fox barks.

She laughed at that and said in a teasing tone, "What's that boy? Did Darkie-Warkie have a orgasm in the hallway? Poor baby!" And then continued laughing. Dark just wrapped him arms around his knees, curled his tail around himself and held himself in a tight ball. He was so embarrassed...he started crying. Just then Cassandra noticed that he was very upset and sat down next to him and said in a worried tone, "Dark?" Dark just let out a sob and kept himself locked in a tight ball. "Oh Dark...I'm sorry...I didn't mean to..." Dark then barked at her in a tearful voice, "Just leave me the fuck alone!" She tried to put her arm around him to comfort him but he shrugged it off and started rocking himself. "Ok Dark..." She said in a sympathetic tone and continued, "But I'm not leaving you like this! I'll just wait with you here until you until you feel better." The class period bell rang but Dark didn't care...he was still emotionally shook up.

Cassandra continued sitting there next to him and remained quiet. Five more minutes passed and he started to get himself under control. Cassandra look over and saw he was a little more relaxed and then said, "Tell you what Dark...let just ditch school today!" Dark was surprised by what she was saying, he looked over to her and asked in a more relaxed voice, "What?" She scooted over close to him, put her arm around him and repeated, "Let just ditch school! You and me!" Strangely...he agreed with her! He really wasn't in the mood for school and despite the fact that she had just embarrassed the hell out him...he like the idea of just hanging out with her!

Dark relaxed himself and asked, "Where would we go?" She smiled at him and replied, "Lets head over to my house! There is no one there and I have loads of DVDs!" She then gently shook him to get him to brighten up and continued, "Come on! Life is too short not to enjoy it!" Dark laughed at that and decided to add that thought to his journal when he got the chance. He looked over to her and nodded yes. She let out a squeal of joy and helped him up to his feet. "On swift bat wing my love...lets flee!" She quoted to him and he replied, "Into the night my love! Flee!" And on that note they both walked off the school grounds and headed straight for Cassandra's home.

Over at Cassandra's house...

Dark and Cassandra were right in the middle of watching a vampire flick and snacking on junk food. Just then Dark had a thought and reached into his trench coat and pulled out his journal, opened it to where he left off and started writing.

_LOG NOTE:

Life is too short not to enjoy it! These words are not mine, but I have never heard more truer words in my whole life! I would have been sitting board and miserable at school...but my friend here talked me into leaving for the day and I'm right now hanging out with her and having fun. I know I'll be punished for doing this...but I really don't care! What's wrong with me?

She takes me in hand

And shames me to the world

Then with the same hand

She lifts me up and takes me home

She is both beautiful and cruel

Spiteful and kind

Why does she want to be with me?_

Dark was pondering on what he had written, when suddenly Cassandra asked, "What's you writing there Dark?" Dark closed his journal and asked, "Why do you want to be around me?" Cassandra just shrugged and replied in an honest tone, "I just like you!" She smiled at him and continued, "You may be a downer, a pain in the tail and a huge jerk..." She then scooted closer to him, started rubbing his arm and continued, "But I like you all the same!" Dark smiled back at her and nodded in a manner that said: _I can live with that! _ Just then she playfully blurted out loud, "And you are one hell of a screw!" Dark could not help but laugh at that and she quickly joined him and then they both laughed together. Dark then tucked his journal back into his trench coat, wrapped his arm around her and watched the rest of the movie with her.

The movie was almost over when suddenly Cassandra let out one of her sad sighs. Dark looked over to her and said, "You're doing it again." She look up at him and asked, "What?" Dark then replied, "You seam depressed and you have been sighing a lot...is something wrong?" Cassandra just shook her head no and then decided to tell him, "I'm just feeling the need...that's all." Dark was confused and asked, "What's the need?" She then giggled weakly and replied, "The need is the desire to have puppies...it's sort of a depression we females get when we're in heat." Empty womb syndrome. Dark thought to himself but didn't know what to say out loud and just kept his mouth shut. Just then she started rubbing his leg and then sadly said, "Being around you is making it worse...anyway...just ignore me!" Dark gulped at that...but strangely...hearing that flattered him and he was turned on!

Dark had a thought and started biting his lips._ Why dark...you sly fox you!_ He mentally scolded himself and just then he found enough courage and asked, "Um...Light?" She looked up at him and he continued, "Would...um..." Just then his ear blushed bright red and he had to draw them back to hide his embarrassment. Light cocked her head at him and asked in a confused tone, "Would...what?" Dark gulped and then continued in sheepish voice, "Would...mating with me help make it stop?"

Her eyes lit up, a wicked smile manifested on her face, her tail waged and she replied, "I thought you would never ask!" She then turned the TV off, stood up, took hold of Dark's hands and said in a lustful tone, "Lets go to bed!" _You didn't have to tell Dark that twice! _ He stood up and just then she lead him into her bedroom.

Dark and Cassandra wasted no time with foreplay and quickly got undressed. Within a short time they were both naked under the covers together in Cassandra's bed and they were already at it. Cassandra was assumed in the female missionary position, with her arms wrapped around him and her legs wrapped tightly around his waist, welcoming his member into her and Dark was topside, busy slowly trusting his male hood in and out from between her legs. Cassandra was in total ecstasy and had her eye's closed and let out short moans each time Dark thrust himself inside her. After a few thrusts later, he felt her orgasm and with her legs she tighten her grip around his waist and more or less trusted herself on his male hood. "Take it easy!" Dark painted and jokingly continued, "You almost broke my back!" Cassandra opened her eyes, looked at him like a wild animal and replied, "Give me what I want and I'll let you go!" Dark laughed and replied, "I'm trying! But I fear you milked me dry at school!" She only giggled and tightened her grip around him and playfully said, "You better CUM up with the good...or else you're not going anywhere!" Dark could not help but giggle at the way she emphasized "cum" and tried his best to reach a climax.

Dark finally felt his climax approach and doubled timed his thrusting. "Here it cums!" Dark called out and as he gave out a loud grunt and gave a hard thrust forward, he spilled whatever seed he had left into her womb. Damn that was hard! Dark thought to himself and as he pulled himself out of her, he rolled over next to her on the bed and tried to catch his breath. She then rolled over onto her side to face him and rub the fur on his chest and belly and playfully asked, "Did you have fun?" Dark looked over at her with a loving look and replied, "You bet!" And then he asked, "Did that satisfy your need?" She didn't say anything for a few seconds and then replied, "No...but it helped!" Being carious Dark then asked, "Can I ask you a personal question?" Cassandra only nodded yes and continued stroking him. Dark then asked, "Why can't you get pregnant?" Cassandra stropped rubbing him and rolled onto her back. Tears started to flow from her eyes and she replied in almost a tearful voice, "One year ago...I had an abortion..." Dark felt guilty for asking and then said, "I'm sorry I asked Light...you don't have to tell me anymore." She closed her eyes, shook her head and replied, "I need to get this out..." and then looked over to him with tear still flowing from her eyes and continued, "And I know you'll not judge me..."

Cassandra told Dark her sad story about how just one year ago she was made pregnant by her ex. When she told her ex that she was pregnant with his pups, he went into a rage and dumped her. She was so emotionally distraught and dreaded the thought of being a single mother. She decided that it would be best if she had an abortion, which she did...but something went wrong during the surgery. Apparently her womb was badly damaged and due to the excessiveness of it..._she'll most likely never have pups again. _ She also told him that the doctors told her that any pups she conceived would only be rejected by her body and be miscarried. She told him she would have had five healthy pups and maybe could breed some more if only she didn't panic and had the abortion.

When she finished telling him her tale, his eyes filled with tears and he reached out to embrace her, she eagerly crawled into his arms and they both silently cried together. Dark then decided to comfort her with a song and then broke into a love song written by H.I.M. Using a deep and beautiful haunted tone of voice he sung, "In the grace of your love I writhe in pain...in six hundred and sixty-six ways I love and I hope you feel the same I'm for you...I'm for you...I'm for you!" As he rocked her in his arms, he sung the whole song. She was comforted in so many ways and just surrendered herself to the soothing hum of his voice and drifted off happily to sleep. Cassandra was resting away peacefully in his arms, Dark didn't feel like sleeping and just then he decided to focus on some writing in his journal and slowly reached over where he dropped his trench coat on the floor, picked it up, removed his journal and snuggled back in close to Cassandra, making sure he didn't wake her.

He opened his journal and wrote down,

_LOG NOTE:

We all carry something we deeply regret. As I have noted somewhere way back on page eight, my deepest regret is when I lost my temper and broke my baby brothers arm when he was only four years old. Thankfully he has forgiven me...but I haven't forgiven myself. My friend Light has told me a story that not only touched me...it tore into my heart and I felt every ounce of pain she felt! From what she told me, she'll never become a mother...I sense that she want's to be and regrets what's she did in the past. How I wish I could help her! Listen to me...why do I care about her?

What can I say

When say your future is lost?

What can I do

To bring it back to you?

My Light...

I think I'm in love with you!_

After Dark wrote that he pondered on that. I think I love you? Dark thought to himself and then looked over at Cassandra who was resting with her head on his chest and breathing at a very steady rate. He smiled and then quietly said, "I love you Light!" And then to Dark's surprise she replied in a dreamy voice, "I love you too Dark!" Dark smiled at that, closed his journal and tossed it upon his coat that was still laying on the floor and continued to hold her in his arms.

_ Over the following week... _

Dark was punished for ditching school the next day after and was grounded. He had to come straight home from school and do extra chores around the house. Honestly he didn't mind..._it was worth it in his opinion! _ Cassandra's folks came back from their anniversary trip and were delighted to hear that their little girl had found another boyfriend and that she was very happy to be with him. Cassandra's father was a little bothered with Dark at first, but when he had a moment and chatted with Dark, he was surprised to learn that Dark was a very leave headed fox and quickly warmed up to him. Cassandra's mother thought Dark was very cute and loved his taste in all black clothing. Even though she had a very annoying habit in grooming the fur around Dark's ears when she chatted with him..._he enjoyed her company and never complied about being touched. _ Over the following day's Dark more or less started coming out of his shell and was a little more sociable then he once was and didn't give into rude outbursts when confronted.

Cassandra being as wild as ever, eventually talked Dark into mating with her every day in the storage room near the gym. Mostly because it had some wrestling mats that made good for bedtime sports and the door could be seal from the inside. There was also a window that was big enough to escape through if suddenly they found themselves in a position of being caught. Dark's journal started to become filled with his personal thoughts and ideas about Cassandra and eventually one day he gave in and allowed her to read some of his thoughts.

She was troubled by some of the writings, but she loved his poetry and told him to keep up the good work. Eventually he started composing gothic poems for her and even sung some. She loved the sound of his voice whenever he sang and always looked forward to hearing what he had to compose whenever he had something new.

But one day...something came up that changed both of there lives...forever!

_ First Period at Dark's School... _

Dark was waiting at his usual spot for Cassandra to show; every day she would meet him her and then they would walk together to his first period class and she would hang out with him in his class for awhile and then take off just three minutes before the class started and went to her own classroom. It was getting very close to time for the first period bell to ring and Dark was a little worried that Cassandra didn't show. Well...she must be sick today. Oh well...I'll just give her a call when I get home. He thought to himself and then headed off to his class.

Dark was restless the reminder of the day and could not help but think of Cassandra. At lunch period he only reread his thoughts in his journal that were about her.

_LOG NOTE:

Today at lunch brake, within the storage room; which we now call, "The Happy Mating Ground." Light wanted to give me my first blowjob. At first I was sort of freaked out by the thought of someone sucking my dick...but it was actually very enjoyable! I decided to return the favor and perform cunnilingus on her. Light mostly laugh the whole time and clamed that my tongue was very rough and that it tickled. Well despite the fact I mostly tickled her, I got her to orgasm! Her orgasm tasted better then I thought! The downside is all the males in my fifth period class could smell her heat on my breath and kept asking and joking with me about where within the cafeteria were they serving pussy for lunch.

(Note to self: Bring breath mints next time!)_

He closed his journal and let out a sad sigh. He didn't feel like writing, didn't feel like eating, didn't even feel like debating on what's wrong with the world! He only thought about Cassandra and hoped she was ok.

When his sixth period ended, he was anxiously thinking about rushing straight home to call and find out how Cassandra was doing. He had been walking home just ten minutes when something kept telling him to head over to her house and check on her in person. Dark didn't want to make a pest of himself and make it seam like he was the type the fussed over little things. Eventually that nagging feeling got the better of him, he then changed his route and headed straight for Cassandra's house.

Cassandra lived a little bit further then he did...but it was worth the extra leg effort to get a chance to see her. Dark then saw her house and quickened his pace and trotted up to the front door. He then knocked on the door and patiently waited for someone to answer. Just then the door opened and a older male fox with bleach white fur answered the door...It was Cassandra's father. Dark gave him a warm smile and said, "Hello Mr. Light! Is Cassandra feeling ok today? If she isn't could you tell her I said hello and that I hope she starts feeling better?"

Cassandra's father only looked at Dark with a very serious face. Dark instantly sensed that something was wrong and asked. "Is she ok?" Cassandra's father didn't say anything for a few seconds and then finally said, "I think you better come inside Dark." And then stepped aside to let Dark enter. Dark was feeling very troubled and agreed to enter with a nod.

Cassandra's father told Dark to wait in the living for a moment and then head off towards Cassandra's room and knocked on the door. Dark was most curious to hear what's going on and focused his ears over in the direction of Cassandra's room and anxiously listened. "He's here Cassie!" Her father said to her through the door and continued, "You want to tell him?" Dark was now very anxious to hear what was going on, he trembled the whole while. Just then the door opened and Cassandra walked out, closed the door behind her and slowly walked into the living room followed by her father. She looked very worried and Dark was most troubled to see her like this.

"I'll leave you two alone for now." Her father said and then headed off outside to do something. When he left, Dark walked up to Cassandra and asked, "What's wrong light? Why are you worried?" Cassandra looked at him for a second and then turned her gaze away. She then closed her eyes, took a deep breath and then seriously said, "I'm pregnant Dark!" Uh-oh! Was all Dark could think and thought hard for a moment and then said, "Um...I thought you couldn't get pregnant." She let out a sad sigh and replied, "I thought so too..." She stopped for a moment and then continued, "The reason I wasn't at school today was because I wasn't feeling well...I went to the doctors office thinking it was the flu...but he told me the news." Dark didn't say anything and just listened as she continued on, "Apparently there is one chamber in my womb that survived the surgery...and...well..." She looked up at him and sadly continued, "It's your puppy Dark! I mated with no one else since I first met you!" Dark was very worried...but strangely..._he was overjoyed by the news! _ He gave her a warm smile and lovingly said, "Congratulation Light!" Cassandra looked at him with a look of shock and asked, "You're not mad?"

Dark walked up to her, gave her a big hug and replied, "No! Why would I be?" Right after he said that she threw her arms around him and gave him such a tight hug she squeezed the air out of him and started crying. He started stroking her back and asked, "Why are you crying?" She then replied in a tearful voice, "I thought I would have to go through another...another..." Dark then shushed her and lovely whispered into her right ear, "It's my pup too light! I wouldn't let you even if you wanted to!"

She cried harder after hearing that and eventually replied in a tearful voice, "You're too good to be true Dark!" Dark figured that since he was going to be a father, it was time to grow up and said, "Kevin!" Cassandra stopped crying, looked at him funny and asked, "What?" He chuckled and replied, "My real name is Kevin, Kevin Foot-Pad." She sort of cringed her face in disgust after hearing that and replied, "I like Dark better! It suits you more the Kevin!" And then started laughing. Dark was warmed by her replied and agreed to keep the name...just for her!

Cassandra's father then came back into the house and as he saw Cassandra embracing him and crying tears of joy, he gave Dark a proud smile and walked up to him and said, "Finely...a fox worthy of my respect!" And then held his hand out to Dark. Dark took hold of his hand and Cassandra's father squeezed his and replied, "Well...just so you know...if you're family kicks you out of the house because of this news...you're always welcome here son!" And then released him. Dark was glad to hear that, thanked him and replied, "The only thing that's going to happen is..." Dark then stopped in mid sentence and Cassandra asked, "What would happened?" Dark smiled at her and jokingly replied, "Mom might have a heart attack knowing she's going to be a grandmother!" Cassandra's father laughed and replied, "Just so you know Dark, my wife is going to want to everything about your family history when she finds out!" Dark laughed and replied, "It would be my honor!" Cassandra's father laugh harder and then replied, "You'll regret it!" He then headed off into the kitchen. Dark just smiled at Cassandra and then lovingly whispered to her, "I love you Light!" She smiled and replied, "I love you too Dark!" And locked muzzles with him.

_ Nine Months Later... _

Dark was sitting in the hospital waiting room with his mother, father, kid brother and Cassandra's mother and father. Last night Cassandra went into labor and ever since, both families arrived and anxiously awaited the birth of the new member to the family. Due to her womb being damaged in the past she needed to be monitored by around the clock surveillance to ensure the birth went through safely. Dark stayed with her for as long as he could during the first wave of contractions and held her hand. When the final moments of the birth approached, the doctors asked him to wait in the waiting room for now.

The whole family was right now busy chatting and arguing happily between each other on wither it's going to be a male or female and will it be born an Artic or a Sliver Fox. Dark's father wagered a twenty four pack of beer that it was going to be a female and Cassandra's father met that bet and raised him three cigars. His mother and Cassandra's were arguing on what type of fox it was going to be and were having a blast trying to point out who was mostly likely right. Dark's kid brother was overexcited to learn that he was going to be an uncle and was proudly telling everyone he met the good news. Dark was busy writing something in his journal and it read,

_LOG NOTE:

THIS IS THE MOST HAPPIEST DAY OF MY WHOLE FUCKING LIFE!!! TODAY I'M GOING TO BE A FATHER!!! I'm so excited and my tail hasn't stopped waging for almost three whole weeks! Both Light and I hope it will be a male...but a female would be wonderful! I have never seen light so happy before in my whole life! It seam's like just yesterday when she asked me if I wanted to feel my pup kick inside her...that day I laid my hand on her swollen stomach and to my greatest joy...I felt it kick! I was so overjoyed I thought my heart would burst from excitement...I cried tears of joy the whole day! Ah well...who give's a fuck!? I'M A FATHER!

I'M A FATHER!

I'M A FATHER!

I'M A FATHER!

I'M A FATHER!

I'M A FATHER!

I'M A FATHER!

WHAT MORE DO

I NEED TO FUCKING SAY!_

After he finished writing that, Dark then closed his journal and tucked away in his coat. Suddenly a grey timber wolf nurse came into the room and asked, "Mr. Foot-Pad?" Dark stood up and acknowledged. She then motioned for Dark to follow her and said, "Your mate will see you now!" My mate! Oh how I love the sound of that! Dark proudly thought to himself and started to follow her. Just as he was about to enter into the backroom, he turned and looked over at his family. They were all smiling at him and his father called out, "Let me know how my granddaughter is doing!" Just then Cassandra's father playfully interjected, "You mean my grandson!" And on that note the two started arguing again.

Dark just smiled, shook his head, rolled his eyes and then followed the nurse. Dark was so excited, each foot step was pure torture and he wanted to rush ahead at full speed to see how Cassandra was doing. But he kept himself in control and patiently followed. His tail starting waging up a storm when they approached the room Cassandra was in and he had to reach around and take hold of his tail with both hands to keep it from knocking over stuff. It wasn't easy and he had a hell of a time trying to keep a firm grip on it.

The nurse stopped at the doorway, pointed inside and happily said, "Here they are! I'll just leave you three alone for now." She then gave Dark a pat on the shoulder and left. Dark walked into the room and just as he saw Cassandra sitting upright in the bed with a little dark colored pup in her arms...Dark thought he was going to faint! "Oh...my...god!" Dark said in a joyful and or tearful voice. He then released his tail and walked forward very slowly. Cassandra was gently rocking the infant fox in her arms and as she saw Dark approach, she looked in his direction and had a priceless smile on her face. She then said in a loving voce, "Come closer Dark! I want you to meet your son!" Dark couldn't talk straight and fumbled the words, "My...me...moo...so...su...son?" She only nodded and just then he was standing next to the bed and looking down at his new born son.

Dark reached down and gently stroked the pups small head with his fingers, the pup had it's eyes closed, but it responded to his touch with rapid movements and quiet infant sounds. Tears poured from Dark's eyes and he tearfully said, "My god...he is so beautiful Light!" And then leaned over, locked muzzles with her and gave her a long loving kiss. When he pulled back he asked, "What are we going to name him?"

Cassandra thought for a moment and replied, "I think he should be named after his father!" Dark gave a short joyful laugh and asked, "Kevin?" Cassandra playfully cringed her face at that and replied, "Hell no!" And then pointed out, "Dark! Right after his father!" Dark giggled at that and just then he thought of a name, "How about we name him after us?" Cassandra gave him her full attention and then he continued, "Dark-Light! Let's name him Dark-Light!" Cassandra thought on that for a second and then agreed. "I think you're right!" She said as she gently rocked the infant pup in her arms and then continued, "He's half Silver and Artic Fox...dark and light...Dark-Light would be perfect!" Dark leaned down and asked, "Can I hold him?" Cassandra nodded and showed him how he should hold the pup, just then he was gently rocking his son in his arms and he then lovely whispered to his new born,

"Welcome to the world...my little Dark-Light!"
