I do like how I got her to look like she's yelling at me which she is.

Signing Up and Arguing
Well it turned out Morgan’s words were right because the time came to sign up for teams for the tournament next year. It would be held at Aispir City again. How this had happened was that none of the rulers could figure out where it would happen so they ended up drawing lots. It was better than nothing. However when Malika tried to sign up for a team, she found that either the maximum number had been met or they were waiting on others. Which meant there was only one that the female could choose. And that was the one Nicholas was on. Malika didn’t look forward to working with the fosky at all. But that was the only bad thing. Even if on the same team as the long-haired male, at least Morgan and Cherry would be on it and most of all, Malika would compete in this like she wanted to last year. The Anubian Jackal found Rex the captain, and he agreed to allow her to join up after being asked. Remy, Nicholas, and the other two learned of this quickly and while the fosky now dreaded this, the rest were happy about it. The day before the first meet up found Nicholas, Malika, and Morgan with the coyote having brought the two into a small room to sit and talk about this.
“I really hope you don’t act like you’re in a bad mood when the time comes like you do now,” Nicholas told the Anubian Jackal.
“I look just fine, thank you,” she snarled at him.
“Well great job Nicholas!” Morgan said to the long-haired male. “You must have really been able to convince her to join our team!”
“I really didn’t do-“ he began but the coyote was too happy and bubbly to notice.
“That’s a future leader for you!” She got up from her seat and walked around to where he was sitting. “Your shoulders must hurt after all that hard work!”
She placed her paws on his shoulders to massage them. “Uh… that’s okay Morgan; I don’t need a back rub…” Nicholas said quickly and nervously while blushing.
“Let me be clear,” Malika said sternly. “The only reason I joined was because the other teams wouldn’t take me. It’s not like I begged Nicholas for it and certain not because he invited me.”
“Really?” Morgan replied all smiles and bubbly. “I saw how you danced at the end of the last tournament and seem close. I honestly thought you were dating.”
“Well we aren’t!” Nicholas stated. “The only reason why Malika and I have interacted so much was because I was ordered to be around her by the king and queen. God; why do people think we’re a couple? We’re not even friends at all. It’s not like that for me.”
“And it’s certainly not like that for me either,” Malika agreed in the same tone. “Besides, Nicholas over there seems to have a crush on someone else.”
“Really?!” Morgan said, excited now. “Nicholas’s got a crush?!” She looked to him with amusement.
“What?!” he exclaimed. “Of course I don’t!”
“Are you sure?” Malika replied. “Because it seems pretty obvious…” The Anubian Jackal looked to him with an evil grin. “Should I say it out loud?”
The fosky had a look on his face of being busted while blushing. Luckily someone else came in to tell Morgan her family needed her for a quick second. “Awww, and just when it was getting good to,” the coyote said with disappointment but then smiled as she began to walk out of the room. “Be right back and we’ll pick up where we left off.”
Nicholas let out a sigh of a relief. “She’s the one you like, isn’t she?” Malika stated and he blushed again. “I mean you haven’t shown interest in anyone else. So it’s gotta be Morgan.”
“I’m not interested in her!” the fosky insisted, getting angry. “Not that it’s any of your damn business. Why are you pushing this Malika?”
“Because I want her to break your heart.”
His eyes went wide with shock but then he really got angry and stood up. “Why do you want that; what the fuck makes you want that to happen?!”
“You know I don’t have to tell you since you know the answer!” Malika snapped back, still sitting in her seat. “You know how it was since day one when we met that you don’t deserve good things!”
“Well would you rather I date someone at least instead of people commenting about us being joined at the hip?!”
“You really don’t like it when people think we’re close, do you?”
“Wha… of course I don’t!”
“Oh! So you admit it!” the Anubian Jackal stated now getting angry herself. “You don’t want there to be rumors about us!”
“It’s the same for you; I want this at least for your sake!”
She now stood up to fully face him. “What do you mean for my sake?!” Malika exclaimed. “Since when did you give a fuck about me?!”
“Yeah, well the same goes for you! You always act like you hate me, yet everyone else is fine!”
“Because how you acted like you hated me first!”
“Who cares?! Either way, we totally both hate each other!”
“IF I TRULY HATED YOU, THEN WHY THE HELL WOULD I AGREE TO BE ON THE SAME TEAM AS YOU?!” Malika shouted.
That made Nicholas stop for a moment in confusion. “I uh… okay you got me there,” he said in defeat for now.
“Damn it Nicholas, how dumb are you?!” the Anubian Jackal asked angrily. “You don’t seem to have a problem with everyone else. Yet you do with me!”
“That’s not true Malika, I’ve seen you be normal at times and that’s when you’re fine.”
“But it’s okay… I just have to grit my teeth and get through this…”
Nicholas sighed. “Okay, look, I’m sorry alright?” he stated and walked up to her. The Anubian Jackal looked away from him. “It is true you’re a pain in the ass and yet despite that others like you,” he said. “I suppose I can work with you…” There was a pause. “Unless you rather act like the bitch you are.”
She snapped. “Like the bitch I am?!” Malika shouted, taking a step forward. “Do you think that’s all I am?!”
“Because you act like that around me!”
“Do you honestly think I act like that because that’s how I am naturally?!”
“Isn’t that how you are?”
“I DON’T UNDERSTAND WHY EVERYONE ELSE CAN STAND YOU!”
“Then… then why the hell did you really join?!” Nicholas exclaimed. “Was it just to piss me off?!”
It was at that moment Morgan came back just in time. “I’m back!” the coyote said. “So, who’s this crush Nicholas…” She saw the fight that had broken out and the two had had been arguing turned around to see the second female. “Er… my bad?”
“No...” Nicholas growled and stormed out of the room.
Later that night found the two at their rooms. Malika was just sitting on the bed, thinking back to the argument and went red in the face realizing just how much she’d opened to Nicholas when the female didn’t want to. “I’m an idiot…” she groaned inside her head. “Such an idiot…”
Nicholas was also thinking back to what happened. “Seriously I don’t know how this will go…” he mumbled.
Just then his mother Linden knocked on his door and came in. “Sorry to bother you Nicholas,” she said. “But can you please take this over to Malika?” The mother vixen had some things for the Anubian Jackal.
“No way!” he replied. “Can’t you just do it yourself?!”
“What’s gotten into you? Do you and Malika have a fight?”
“We always do mom. It’s because she hates me.”
“What?” Linden replied. “I thought by the way she acted with you at that dance that Malika has a crush on you.” Her son went red in the face and mechanically turned his head to her in shock. “Ah, was that still a secret? Sorry; forget I said anything!”
Nicholas did end up taking the stuff to the door of her room. “There’s no way she does like me…” he thought in his head. And yet he couldn’t bring himself to open the door. Instead he placed the stuff in front of it, knocked on the wood and ran for it. The guy peeked around the corner. He saw her door open and looked to see if there was anybody before taking the stuff in. Nicholas then went back to his room, just wondering how things would turn out. Either way, he figured this was going to be quiet the ride.
