Romance for all breeds

"So you have a human form as well?" Ajali asked as she floated backwards in the water. Her feet kicking slowly as her arms waved as she circled him in the water. "It looks like it is hard to swim in d'at form" She commently lightly.

"Ha your calling me the traitor!" she called .playfully blowing him a kiss."Don't worry I'll get you back soon enough." Mikayla ran of for Katie.

(Sorry I was busy with school."

"Actually its a alot easier for me to swim in this form." Gordon barked lightly. "I can't swim in my true form or my human form, but I can swim in this form only."

Ajali frowned a little. "Is it simply not possible or you simply don't know how?" She asked curiously. "I could teach you." She said smiling.

Lucas Roark

Lucas froze mid-chew when Brian reached over and touched his tail. He at least swallowed his food before letting his mouth drop open. He looked at his own tail in surprise, much like Brian was doing. He didn't he could do that.

"Heh heh..." he chuckled lightly. "Um..." How did he get it to go away? "I need to go to the bathroom." He stood up hurriedly and ran down the hall to the bathroom. He closed and locked the door behind him, grabbing his tail and staring at. "Go away," he tried. "Shoo." He sighed and dropped it, closing his eyes and concentrating. He didn't know if it worked until he looked and noticed that his backside was tail-free. "Yes!" he cheered. He would need to keep an eye on that.

He left the bathroom and rejoined Brian. "Sorry about that," he said. "You already ate?"

(I wasn't sure if Brian knows he's a werewolf or not! Does he?)

Gordon blushed a bit. "I don't know how too."

Ajali gave him a sweet smile. "Let me teach you. Shift into your human form. Trust me, it'll be easier that way. The less fur you have, the lighter you'll be." She said swimming over to him.

"Sure." Gordon was about to shift when he knew he was in the water and no underwear on. "Ummm. . . Let me get back to solid ground first." He doggy paddle back to the bank of the lake. Shaking his fur lightly and move back to the reeds where he found his underwear. Gordon then let out a small whimper and began to shift. It had been a long time since he had been in his human form probably about 20 years or so. So the need to shift into his human form was a bit painful. Soon his tail disappear and his fur and form into bright blonde hair. Then his black marking appeared and his paws grew to feet and hands. Once Gordon finished his transformation he put on his underwear and stood up. It was a little weird at first as he walked to the water. His once red eyes now bright ocean blue. He took his steps into the water. "Okay now I am in my human form."

(Yeah, I think he does. He's just never seen him shift before)

Brian smiled, letting out a soft laugh as his flustered boyfriend ran from the room. Life around here was never dull, no matter how hard they tried to be normal. Lucas was a werewolf, Brian knew that. He had known for a while now. Closing his eyes, Brian smiled as he recalled the day.

It had been a sunny day, and the boys had been "dating" about a month. Brian had been trying to get Lucas to try and come out to his parents, and today they were going to practice. To help with the excersise, Brian told Lucas about his secret life as a dancer and the costumes he had (later he would have shown him), and in return, Lucas told him he was a werewolf.

It was definatly a weird relationship; and Brian did have to make a few changes to his home to accomodate him, but he didn't mind at all. His eyes opened again as Lucas reappeared, this time tail free. Standing, he walked over as Lucas took a seat and claimed his lap, sitting there with an innocent smile.

"Yes, I nibbled while I gardened."

Ajali blushed. She thought he was very handsome as a human. She smiled. "Here," She said and took his hands leading him a little farther into the water. "Just relax your body. Let the water hold you up." She said softly.

Lucas Roark

Lucas smiled when he got a lap-full of boyfriend. "Nibbled?" he questioned. "I need to teach you how to eat," he continued with a laugh. "Fatten you up." He wrapped his arms around Brian's waist and pulled him closer.

He never felt this happy unless he was with Brian... And he wanted so badly to share this with his family. He wanted to share his happiness with everyone! But... It was so hard! It shouldn't be so hard; he had to tell his parents he was a werewolf which hadn't been as scary as he thought it was going to be. In fact, it was weird because his mom already knew... But this was way more difficult...

One day...

Gordon held her hand and slowly began to walk in the water. He was a bit nervous about being in the water in his human form, but he proceeded. Until the water got up to his chest. He gasped a bit the water was a bit cold and sent a small shudder through out his body. However he stayed as relaxed as possible not wanting to let go of Ajali's hand.

Ajali gripped his hand a little tight as he jumped at the chill the water. She closed her eyes and water became comfortably warmer. She smiled a little. "Just get use to the water." She said calmly. "How does it feel?"

"Alright." He says noticing the water became much warmer. "Much better. I like the cold just not cold water." He says as he continues into the water.

Ajali smiled. "Good." She said. "Now, I'm going to let go of your hands. I want lie on your back and let your body float." She said. "Don't worry, I won't let you go anywhere."

Brian smiled, resting his forehead against Lucas's.

"Hey!" He jeered, gently nuzzling into his boyfriend. "I need to keep this... girlish figure." He laughed, giving a little wiggle as he motioned to his body. "Besides, I have to save everything else for the party tomorrow..." His thought trailed off as he looked down for a moment.

"I assume you'll be bringing a date if your parents come?" He asked. That had happened last year. Granted, Brian had been able to pick out the girl, but it still stung whenever he had to think of the "precautions" Lucas had to take at any of his events. "I mean, I don't mind but... are you?"

Lucas Roark

Lucas smiled at the mentioning of Brian's "girlish" figure and of the party. The party was always fun, even last ye-

Last year... The girl... His parents... He winced when Brian reminded him of it. The girl had been nice and everything, he liked her, but he hadn't wanted to dance with her. He hadn't wanted to ask her. He hadn't wanted to be with her. He didn't want to introduce his parents to her. He had wanted to do all of that with Brian instead, but his fear got the best of him.

And he knew that Brian had been hurt, probably betrayed. Sure, he said it was okay but Lucas could tell that it wasn't. And it shouldn't be. Lucas should be able to show Brian off without being scared. He wanted to, gods he wanted to... But he could compare the way he felt to jumping off a cliff or out of an airplane. He knew that he would make it through, knew he had the parachute there for support, but there was always that what if.

What if the parachute malfunctioned? What if he forgot how to work the parachute? What if he opened it too early? What if he opened it too late? He knew that it would be okay if he just followed his heart but what if? It was that damn question!

He was pretty sure that he could do it, he could tell him parents and the world, but he couldn't get over the fear of hitting the ground.

There was one thing he was sure of though. "I'm not taking another girl to the party," he said surely, lifting Brian's chin up to look at him. "I didn't like it last year, and more importantly neither did you. I couldn't put us through that again." He sighed and looked down, ashamed. "Even though I hate myself for this, I'm not ready to introduce you as my boyfriend to my parents... But..." he grinned a little bit. "I would be the happiest guy at the party if you went with me. If we went together." It wouldn't be an 'official' date but they could ride there together and show up together. They could stay relatively close together... So it would be like a date to them but everyone else would just assume they're friends. And really, if they thought something different...

Well he was relatively okay with that.

Brian's eyes lit up, those emeralds sparkling in the mid-afternoon light.

"R-Really?!" He squeaked, almost in disbelief. "I-..." He was at a loss for words. Was this... This was an actual date. He could feel the heat rush to his face. Lunging forward, the smaller male pressed his lips against Lucas's and gave him a thankful kiss.

Gordon nodded and laid back a bit the water went in his ears and him make an awkward face. He had one leg up and then he slowly lifted his other legs. With a smile he was floating in the water. "Awesome."

Ajali gave him a big grin. "Good, Good." She said holding her hands under his head. "Now, with your arms, slowly push the water back." She instructed. "Like you are waving,"

Lucas Roark

Lucas grinned into the kiss and deepened it. When he pulled back he was slightly out of breath. He smiled. "One day," he began, "I'll show you off to the whole world. I hope you can wait for me." Breakfast was easily forgotten.

Brian nodded happily, tears practically forming in his eyes.

"Of coarse I can, darling," He purred, trailing kisses across Lucas's cheek. "I'd wait eternity if I had to..." His tone was loving and warm. This was getting all too good. Slowly, he removed himself from his boyfriends lap.

"Well, I guess all we need to do is prepare~, care to help me, sweetheart?"

Lucas smiled. "I'll help you with anything. What do you need me to do?"

Being a werewolf made him pretty useful around the house, of course, not in the kitchen. He could pour a bowl of cereal and that was about it. His mom tried to teach him how to make pancakes... No, just no. His forte was physical stuff, and he could somewhat help his mom with designs and stuff. She didn't really like his help for that though; he liked a simple approach and she was just too anal about it.

Brian grinned and retreated to the drawing room for a moment before returning with a diagram of tables.

"There are tables in the garage, please move them so they look like this?" He asked, kissing Lucas on the forehead before retreating to the kitchen. He was going to have to cook for the entire town, and it was going to take the whole night. Best to get started now, right?
