Who are you again?
"Really? When have we met? I'm sorry but I really don't remember you... Or your friend... Is he alright?"
"I'm... I'm... I'm fine Arctic. Thank you for your concern" John stuttered
"John's fine... He's just... Not used to meeting other people." I leant in and whispered into her ear "That and he fancies you... But you're mine." I immediately knew I shouldn't have... too far too soon. Fuck.
"Pardon?" Arctic cocked her head "Did you just say that I'm yours?
I quickly searched my brain for an answer. "no. I told you that you're fine... as in... good looking..."
"so I've got a couple of love birds on my hands? Well as long as you don't try to get in me we're going to get along just fine."
"Cool... I wouldn't try anything anyway... unless you wanted me to..." John piped up
Arctic gave him a quick lick on the muzzle "John. keep it in your sheath."
"I...I..I.I." a silly grin appeared on his face which remained there for a while.
"Well I'll show you to my... our little house... it's a nice one."
"it is. Isn't it? I've seen it before."
"have you? I really don't remember you." Arctic smiled apologetically.
I followed her to the mahogany house. There was only one bed but that will change sooner or later. With Sarah's organizational skills Tony Jeeves is probably on his way to a pet shop right this minute. I nudged her playfully "so what are the sleeping arrangements... I really don't mind sharing."
a look of amusement grew on Arctic's face "oh really? That's alright. You and John can share the spare bed."
to be really honest I didn't see that coming. Still drop dead gorgeous and intelligent "eh... wouldn't be the first time." I sat down on the wooden floor. Memories of the games we used to play flooded my mind.
Arctic laid on her bed and looked at me. "So... remind me who you are. You do remind me of someone from a dream. Incidentally he had the same name as you... which is weird... he also looked... exactly... like.. you."
there was one way to see if this dream was the one where I was her mate. "Alexi, Morgan, Julian, Autumn... Caesar."
this took her aback "what... but... how do you know? Have I told you about my dreams before?"
"no... I had the same dream... it was so real wasn't it? It was so great. Being together. I cried when I woke up. I missed you."
Arctic smiled "so... you are; as I've heard Sarah say once or twice, prince charming?"
"yep. But I can be your prince charming."
"heh. Let me think about it Romeo."
"I hope he's not Romeo." John muttered "That makes me mercutio."
it took me a while to figure out what he meant. "yeah... it's never a good thing to compare lovers to Romeo and Juliet."
"why not? Aren't they like close lovers who where together until the day they died?"
"yeah... they both died. Juliet took some sleeping pills or potion or something... but Romeo thought she was dead so then he stabbed himself."
"oh." a look of confusion swept over Arctic "what happened next?" she asked
"Juliet woke up and found her lover dead so she stabbed herself with his dagger." John finished.
"wow... that's a strange story..."
"so can you read Arctic?" John asked with interest.
"no... I just heard Sarah reading Romeo and Juliet to jess." she yawned "well... I'm going to sleep now... when I wake up I want you two where you are. If I wake up and find one of you tied to me you lose your balls. understand?"
"yes miss!" john cried covering himself
"Aw... cute." Arctic licked his muzzle before licking mine and curling up on her bed and falling asleep.
I followed her example and curled up on the floor before dozing off.
