The Taxi ride over to Sulley's parent's house was an awkward one to say the least; the cab driver seemed to notice the raunchy smell coming off Sullivan's fur and refused to let it go.
"Someone got lucky huh?" He asked looking in his rear view mirror to the passenger then back to the street. Sulley shrugged "I guess" Would he call himself lucky? More like unlucky being the guy who fucked his co-worker/rival in the heat of the moment.
"Guess she is not fond of overnight guests" The cabby laughed. Sulley went quiet after this, deep in thought, unsure of what this all meant or the strange new feelings he had brewing for Randall. When they pulled up into Sullivan's parents rocky drive way Sulley passed the Cabby some money, instructing him to keep the change as walked up the patio to the door, he knocked lightly. No one answered and he knocked again louder. "Mom!" He said in a loud voice but not necessarily shouting. Sulley then moved away the mat from the porch, revealing a key his parents hid on the occasion that they misplaced the original set. "Mom… Dad?" Sulley asked more quietly as he stepped into the dark house "Anyone home?" When nothing was heard Sulley threw his work bag to the floor with a sigh, falling lazily to the couch in the living room just across from the foyer.
Sulley rubbed his tired eyes as he began to drift off on the couch, seeing the phone laying on the side table he wondered if he should call someone. He was eager to talk to Mike right about now, needing some answers to his questions and someone to put his worries to ease. But his best friend was currently occupied by another, and likely not interested in his pity fest. Before falling asleep he began to wonder if Randall had made it home safely, his eyes fluttered on the thought before he fell into a deep sleep.
Sullivan woke up in a cold sweat, panting hard as his heart raced. He suddenly felt uneasy and paranoid as he picked up the phone on the side table, flipping through the phone book his dad left laying around the living room. He quickly turned to the 'B's running his finger down the names - 'Bohgs" 'Bongs' 'Boggs' Sulley moved his finger across the page to the number at the side dialing with his other hand. The phone rang for a long time, revealing that Randall did not have voice mail. After a few minutes of sweating on the couch hoping Randall had made it home safe, someone finally picked up the phone.
"What?!" The voice on the other end practically yelled "Do you have any idea what time it is?!" Sullivan recognized the voice as Randall's, he was used to hearing the reptile shout spitefully at people.
Sulley stayed quiet as he looked to the clock, it was 4 AM. Sulley suddenly felt guilty for the rude wakeup call when he toned back into Randall's angry ranting "Who is this?!"
Suddenly the front door opened and he heard a loud shrike, as Sulley's mom walked into the house, jumping high as she mistook her son for an intruder. "ohh James! It's just you" She sighed in relief as the automatic porch lights shined in on him.
Molly Sullivan was a medium sized violet monster with a fluffy mane and floppy dog ears. She had two tails coming from the base of her back, they were much sleeker and thinner than Jame's but essentially the same. Her hips were accented with fluff along with fluff running up her legs to her knee.
"Sullivan?! How did you get my number?!" Sulley heard Randall scream on the other end in a panic Sulley hung up the phone, laying it back down on the table as his mother looked at him confused "What are you doing here?"
"I just needed somewhere to crash for the night" Sulley sad looking regretfully at the phone, why did he have to call? Now Randall would be even more put off.
"Did you and Mike have an argument? That is so unlike you two" She asked worried for her son's well being, assuming it was Mike screaming on the phone.
"No, nothing like that, he just had a date tonight is all"
"Ohhh, who was that on the phone then?" She questioned as Jame's father walked into the room; He looked a little tipsy as he tripped over himself taking off his shoes. Bill looked very similar to James besides his greying hairs and lack of a tail, his fur was also darker with a squarer chin.
"It was no one" James said, brushing off his mother's comment as he greeted his father "Hey Dad" Sulley waved causally "Have a few to many drinks?"
"Hey son" Bill waved back, shutting the door behind him. "Just a glass or two of champagne" James noticed the suit and reasoned his father had brought mom to another social party, most likely one with passed scarers. Bill slipped off his shoes and stumbled up the stairs practically with his eyes closed.
"That was not no one, if you are having lady troubles you can talk to me about it"
"It's more complicated than that mom" Sulley ran his hand through his hair.
"We will talk about it in the morning" Molly said, stepping up the stairs.
"Night mom" Sulley fell back to the couch as his mother walked up the stairs to join Bill.
Sullivan woke up to a sweet scent lingering in front of his nostrils, he loved the smell of his mother's cooking, but not even that could brighten his mood. Sulley woke up bitterly with a groan, His neck and back was filled with kinks as he slept on his parents less than perfect couch. He felt as if he had not slept a moment as he rubbed out the collected gunk in his eyes that drooped low with deep rings under them. Hoping he might be able to catch a few more minutes of sleep Sullivan slumped back on the couch, but sleep seemed impossible as his thoughts were quickly per-occupied with Randall. It's not as if Sullivan liked the guy, but for some reason he felt a nagging need to be around him.
Giving up on his attempt to sleep he yawned loudly, opening his eyes for the first time that morning, the bright sun shone in from the living room window, Sulley's eyes adjusted as he sat up straight. "James, are you up?" She said poking her head into the living room to see her son lazily slumped on the furniture. "ohh good" She smiled although Sulley did not respond. "I made Pancakes!" She sung, unofficially inviting Sulley to join in as she returned to the kitchen.
Sulley lifted himself off the couch, walking towards the kitchen. "You must have had a late night" She commented giving Sulley a curious look with a suggestive smile as she flipped a pancake. Sulley rolled his eyes playfully, the left side of his lip twitching as he cannot help but smile "Don't get any ideas, I haven't met anyone" With that Molly frowned largely, more playful then honest disappointment.
"I understand, your Busy going after that record" She grinned "Your father was the same way, took him years to approach me" She smiled as Bill walked through the door from out back "Did someone say my name!" He bursted in, looking much more chipper then he did the other night. "Bill, dear we were just talking about you" She kissed his large chin. Before staking the last pancake onto a large pile of them, wondering if she had made enough.
Bill took a seat next to James at the table, grabbing a plate as he waited impatiently for his wife's cooking; Molly joined them as she set the table for her son and husband, sticking pancakes up on their plates along with a cup of syrup for the three of them.
Sulley shoved an entire pancake into his mouth as he was famished having slept without dinner. "So who was the screamer on the phone last night?" Bill asked also stuffing his face with a pancake, his eyebrow raised curiously
"I was talking to a co-worker" He was not lying. Bill let out a snort "He sounded pissed, what did you do" At this point Sulley's mother was also staring curiously, syrup running down her lip, looking silly with stuffed cheeks.
"Just some files got mixed up" Sulley said sounding very unconvinced at his own lie.
"Isn't that Mike's job?" Bill asked with a straight face, finding something fishy about the way his son had been acting, knowing very well that scarers did not have to deal with paper work. Sulley gulped "yeah, just got some things messed, it's nothing, boring work stuff"
"Is this Co-worker giving you a hard time?" Bill asked knowing how intimidating some scarers can be. "Don't let the others walk all over you!" James blushed harshly
"Dad it's nothing like that at all" He said flustered shoveling his last pancake into his mouth hoping his dad would not notice his red cheeks. "I am going to meet up with Mike now and get everything sorted out" He said with his mouth full, receiving a glare from Molly due to his bad table manners.
Sulley stood up from the table, leaning in to kiss his mother's cheek and wave goodbye to his father "I will tell you all about it later" He smiled as he ran off to catch the next bus that passed the house. "Wait, I will walk you out" Bill said pushing his chair back from the table and walking over to his son, putting his hand on Sulley's shoulder as he walked him towards the door.
The two boys walked silently on the gravel stones in front of his parents' house before Bill awkwardly asked, clearing his throat first. "Is uh, this about a girl?" Sulley responded with silence, receiving an 'I see' from his father who in all honestly was not the best at emotional chit chat or love advice
"It's not a girl" Sulley said looking to the ground as the silence was feeling a bit awkward.
"oh…OHH" It took a second to sink in, Bill looked wide eyed at Sulley then composed himself "I didn't know you were, you know" Bill chocked.
"I'M NOT!" Sulley shouted, unsure why he felt so defensive, he kicked a rock frustrated at Randall and these feeling he had for him.
"It's okay if you are son" Bill explained feeling sadness wash over him as he wondered if he raised Sulley wrong, not because he was gay, but because he took so long to tell him. "You know you can tell me and your mom anything, right?" Bill thought his son already knew that, but realized he had never said it out loud.
"I'm not gay; I don't even like the guy!" Sulley shivered, he felt unremitting guilt about letting those words leave his mouth. "It's complicated" He said sadly.
Noticing the bus pulling up the street Bill patted his son on the back as a loving gesture. "If you ever need anything, you know I'm here for you" He received a smile from Sulley, the talk proving to be useful as it decreased Sulley's stress a bit. "Don't tell mom, I will let her know once I get this sorted out" James said climbing onto the bus "I don't want her to worry" he said receiving a nod from Bill.
"I will call you later" Bill said waving Sulley good bye as the bus pulled out from the stop. 'That could have been worse' Sulley imagined, concluding that the day was not a complete disaster, so far.
Yeah I suck at writing not sex, anyway second chap! Enjoy!
