BZZT. BZZT. BZZT. BZZT. BZZZ.
Blinking groggily as that damned alarm clock went off, a muffled groan escaped my lips as my handpaw shot out to silence the damned thing. It may have been a blow intended to kill, but hearing the snooze button click brought some satisfaction. Even though that was only ten minuets, but hew, how much time did someone need to wake up? When I was up, I was up, I just preferred to be in the comfort of the warm bed...okay, a little lazy, but when did that become a crime?
Soon, the scent of breakfast and the symphony of my stomach made my feet swing out of bed, the sunlight bathing my silvery-white feet in sunlight. I snapped my alarm off as I stood, the scent of bacon and eggs passing my sensitive nose, smiling lightly as my claws scritched here and there at little itches in my fur. My stomach growled again, knowing as well as my head did that Rosalinda had already started breakfast
Slipping a pair of jeans on -none of the males wore shirts, except humans- I smiled and bounded downstairs, smiling at the occupants of the table. There was my father, my sister, and Rosa, who was currently occupying the stove. Normally, today would have been a good day to stay and talk with my family, but the boys were supposed to be here any minuet. Tomorrow was my birthday, and I felt like spending some of my birthday dough on a gift to me. I gave my sister a kiss on the cheek, and a cheery wave to Dad and Rosa before I slammed the door behind me
Inside the sleek corvette that pulled up was Adam behind the wheel, and I let out a light groan as the too-energetic fox called to me.
"Cole, hurry up!"
So I guess it's time to tell you about myself. My name is Cole, and I'm an Arctic wolf. One of the last ones alive, mind you, but that was nothing to be ashamed of. The fox in the car was Adam, and there was Sam and Rena in the backseat. All of the boys greeted me warmly, and I made a quick check to make sure I had me card in my jeans. You see, tomorrow was my eighteenth birthday, and dear old dad had given me a prepaid card with about two hundred grand on it, and I was going to buy myself a new car. I didn't really care about it, but my friends had pressured me into it. After all, the cooler the car, the better the girlfriend.
Ohh... That thought made me shiver again, though no one noticed it. Surely, by now, I should have been somewhat interested in the opposite sex, but I had been thinking that something was wrong with him for the past three years or so. Instead of looking at females the same way my friends had, I didn't se them sexually. They were nice enough, but more in the 'friendly' way, not in the sexually attractive way as my friends thought about him. But then again, I also didn't despise humans, just as my friends did. Nothing was wrong with them, really...but enough about that-someone was talking. Adam? Oh. Yes, Adam!
"Hey, Cole, what kind of car did you want to buy? After all, it is your money, and I don't mind driving. The longer I go, the more you owe me in gas money."
I just laugh lightly, pointing to the BMW dealer across the street. "Thats fine."
We pulled in easily, although a bit awkwardly. A Corvette in a BMW dealer, that was like ordering a Big Mac at Burger King. Oh well. I opened the door on Adam's car, shutting it behind me lightly, not wanting to give the fox a heart attack. I was almost immediatly attacked by a pushy salesfur, wanting to know this and that. He stayed silent after a moment of glaring, letting me onto my business.
It was a nice enough car, and it even fit into my budget. I let my paw run along the Beamer as I walked the perimeter twice. I had really no idea what I was buying, but it wasn't out of my card's reach, and it would get my companions off of my back. But i wasn't the only one looking, as I found out.I turned to get someones attention, hopefully not the pestering bear, but was silenced as something ran into my chest. I looked down and blinked at the sight of a human.
"Hey man, you okay?" I reached a paw down to help him up, smiling as he moved to stand up. "Sorry, it was an accident..."
But the human just took my paw and smiled, standing. "Hey, it's no problem Cole, it wasn't on purpose." Okay, that surprised me a little. He new my name? But thats when my eyes flicked to his face, remembering. I knew him...He sat beside me in science...And calculus...And he was one of the few open gays in my school. Not that I had a problem with that.
"Hey, it's Evan, right?"
He smiled and nodded, running his fingers through his hair. "Yeah, I've been sitting next to you for the past year... Good to know that you have at least the basic information down." He laughed lightly and I blushed, but he either took no notice of it or didn't care. Instead he took a step forward and kissed the side of my muzzle lightly. My eyes widened and he just smiled, turning away. "Nice seeing you, Cole."
Now THAT was a shock. Not only did I just get kissed by a man, but...well, it wasn't terrible, thats for sure. My mind was seemingly in a daze as I signed for the car, swiping my card, laughing with my friends as we took my car back, dropping them off-except Adam, who took his own car- just glad that no one had noticed the gentle kiss. Glad that no one had noticed the fact that my muzzle was still red, either. But it was true....I didn't mind it...
Oh god, what was I thinking?! I couldn't have liked that, liked him, he was a guy! A HUMAN guy! I cursed myself as I screeched into my driveway, hoping that no one, ever, would know about Evan and my little meeting. There was nothing there, and it needed to STAY that way. If anyone found out, I would get grounded for sure, and Evan would be...well, he could be in BIG trouble. Like, dead trouble...
I put on my smile as I went inside, talking to Dad [somewhat excitedly, he hoped] about my new car, then tossing him the keys to let him test drive it. Letting my mind wander back to the kiss...again. Why was I still thinking about it? Was it because I would have to face Evan, and the truth, tomorrow? Or was it because perhaps...
perhaps I liked it?
