Chapter 2: Deuce
…..Deuce's point of view….
Deuce watched his Ghoulfriend, Cleo, talking to all her beast friends. He looked around, bored. How could he be bored at Prom?
He realized his mouth was dry, and went to get a drink. He looked at the choices for drinks:
Water, Lemonade, and Soda.
He grabbed a soda, and quickly drank it, soothing his throat. There was something about the soda that was different, but he didn't really care. He looked at the snack table, and grabbed 2 cupcakes, one for Cleo.
Then Deuce headed over to where Cleo was, still talking and dancing with Clawdeen, Lagoona, Draculaura, and all her usual friends.
"Want a cupcake Cleo?" Deuce asked, smiling. However Cleo's response wasn't so nice.
"What? You want me to get fatter? I can't believe you would want that! Get that thing away from me!" Cleo snapped.
Deuce flinched at her tone. What's her problem? Deuce wondered.
"Um.. Okay." Deuce said quietly, still shocked, and walked over to a table. He began to eat his Cupcake, and saw Toralei looking around lonely.
"Hey Toralei… want a cupcake?" Deuce asked, feeling like being nice.
…..Toralei's Point of View…
Did he really just ask me that? Toralei thought, shocked. She smiled, kindly at Deuce. That moment she forgot which foods had the potions in them.
"Sure." She meowed. After he handed it to her, she meowed quietly thanks.
Deuce nodded, and went back to eating his own cupcake.
"So why are you not dancing with your ghoul friend?" Toralei asked, curious.
"She seems to only be talking and dancing with her friends. And then when I brought her the cupcake that I ended up giving to you she snapped at me. I guess maybe she will want to dance later…." Deuce explained.
Toralei's eyes softened. She felt bad for the monster that dated the royal pain in the butt princess. He must get yelled at a lot.
"I think I'm going to get another cupcake. How about you?" Toralei asked.
Deuce nodded. "Sure I'll have another." He said following Toralei to the food area.
Toralei and Deuce saw Nefera, Cleo's older sister, handing out drinks.
"What's she doing here?" Deuce asked Toralei.
Toralei shrugged. "Maybe Bloodgood offered to pay her if she would chaperone?" Toralei shrugged. Deuce nodded. Toralei grabbed a cupcake, and grabbed another, handing it to Deuce. They walked back over to the dance area. When Toralei heard the music, she began to dance slowly, still holding her cupcake, which she slowly ate.
….Deuces point of view….
Deuce just leaned against the wall, glancing where Cleo was. She was still talking with Clawdeen. He noticed Draculaura was dancing with Clawd, and Lagoona was dancing with Gil.
Why is Cleo ignoring me? Deuce wondered, and then he looked at Toralei. A few minutes had passed.
She was dancing, her body moving gracefully to the beat of the music. Deuce began to smile, suddenly having an urge to dance with her, so he walked closer to her.
"Wanna dance?" She asked.
"Sure." Deuce said. His green eyes gazing through his shades at the werecat. She put her arms around his neck, and he put his hands on her sides. A slow song was on anyway, so they slowly danced.
Deuce was just staring at Toralei the whole time. He felt himself pulling her closer. Toralei looked up and their eyes met, even though Deuce's shades.
…Toralei's point of view….
Toralei felt herself leaning in. What am I doing? She thought to herself. But before she could think of an answer, her lips met Deuces.
…..Deuces point of view…
When Toralei's lips met his own, Deuces mind went blank. He wasn't thinking.
That kiss was simple, and before long, Deuce pulled away.
"I'm sorry." He said. Toralei looked at him.
"I'm not." She meowed, giving him a sexy look before shoving her lips into his. The kiss turned passionate, and after a couple moments Toralei pulled away to take a breath and Deuce began to kiss her neck. She moaned quietly as the gorgon massaged her neck with kissed. Luckily everyone else was caught up in their own dancing to notice the two. Deuce pulled away from her neck and went back to Toralei's soft lips. Deuces hands; without him noticing, wrapped around her back, and he pulled her even closer, making the kiss even deeper.
Then suddenly a familiar voice shouted "Oh My Ra!"
Author's note: Sorry Cleuce fans, although I like Cleo and Deuce, I also like other ghouls with Deuce, and for some reason this was a ship I came up with. The reason they kissed was because of the potion, which was in the cupcakes. Deuce is gonna be affected by a couple potions, cause there is one in the Soda, but not till later. Anyway Please Review I want to know what you think so far. And I'm open to ideas for who else should be affected by potions for later chapters.
