Heheh. I'm personally going to have fun with this story. Hope you all enjoy!
Dean sighed mildly, flicking through the tv channels, unable to find anything to watch. Seriously, unable to find anything to watch the ONE DAY he invited Jake over. He just wanted his bestie to get to relax here and get to know Thanatos and Eli. And he wanted to take Jake's mind off of that grey werewolf he said he'd met. Though, he couldn't figure out what to do. He wanted to something that they all could do together.
Right now, the group of four were in his living room, trying to find something to watch. And by looking at how Thanatos was reading a book and Eli was tinkering with some sort of machine, he realized things weren't going well. Only Jake was trying to watch the tv, and he could EASILY see the wolf was bored. He really needed to change something and soon.
Jake soon suddenly pounced up and clapped his hands loudly, jumping everyone into looking at him. The wolf saying.
" OK! Guys, I can see we are all bored! We need a change here! Who has a suggestion? "
" A-ah... "
Thanatos stuttered, no doubt taken back by the wolf here.
" I-I don't... "
" Ok! Eli, idea shoot! "
" E-eh... the park? "
Eli shrugged, grinning nervously. Jake looked up in thought, saying softly.
" Good idea, buuuut... I feel like that ones pretty popular. I think something unique is in order. "
Dean could understand that. That was the reason he hadn't brought up the park earlier. But where else could they go? The library? ... No Jake didn't like reading. The movies? ... Nah. That didn't seem like Eli's thing there. Too many people. Flash dang it, what would be a good thing for them to do today?
" Maybe we could go to the mall? "
Eli tried, yet everyone could sense some hesitation in his voice. No doubt he was offering, despite not being keen on it himself. It was kind of cool really.
" Nah. I'm broke. "
Jake chuckled, Dean hearing the Novian sigh in relief. Though, he couldn't blame him one bit. Again, the Novian was always uneasy around others. Dean looked down, trying to think of something. Anything truly. They needed to do something.
" ... Oh! "
Jake yelped, smiling and clapping his hands together.
" I just thought of something! We could go to the lake to swim! "
Dean silently gasped, shocked by this. Frightened silently. The lake, swimming... he didn't want to go. He knew it wouldn't go well. Not to mention Eli couldn't even touch water. He went to voice his mind, when he heard the others jump in.
" That sounds good. "
Eli said softly.
" I can hang out in the shade and watch you guys. "
Dean bit his lip, turning to Thanatos, sure the other wouldn't want to go to the lake. Saddened a little, to hear his answer.
" Sounds nice. I wouldn't mind going. "
The three turned to Dean, all waiting for what he was going to say. Smiling and eager... Dean felt trapped. He didn't- couldn't- say yes to this lake day. He just couldn't! He couldn't admit to his friends his embarrassing little... problem. He was supposed to be the bad a**, not a big fraidy cat!
Looking from Eli, to Thanatos, to Jake... he soon found, he was almost mesmerized by them all. All them hopeful smiles... by his friends. And his best friend... Oof. He'd feel like an a** if he said no. They all wanted to go. He... he couldn't say no.
Slowly, he nodded to them, throwing on a smile and saying gently.
" Sounds like a blast. "
" Great! "
Jake cheered, clapping and hopping up and down.
" Come on guys! It's going to be awesome! "
Dean grinned a bit, watching as everyone got up. Sighing a bit as he was alone. He couldn't believe this... how could Jake have forgotten about this...?
Oooh. Wonder, what Deans worried about. :3
Hope you all liked this chapter. ;)
