Chapter 2: Puppy Lovin'

Daryl's eyes widened and he turned his eyes away from their joined hands to slowly look up and meet Glenn's brown eyes in shock.

"You….you did?" Daryl choked out. Glenn nodded in confirmation. Daryl was flabbergasted by this news and could hardly find the words to speak, he was so over joyed. "H-h….how? How do ya know?" He asked. Glenn smiled warmly.

"You feel a tugging sensation in your chest when you first meet eyes with that person. Then out of nowhere, stranger or not, you feel like they are all that matters, no one and nothing else matters but that person. And when you're apart you feel a deep longing to be with them again. When you are around them you feel happy no matter what you were feeling before; you feel like you're the happiest you've ever been in your life and nothing compares."

Daryl was suddenly reminded how he felt when he saw Glenn the first time that day and in the two hours he's known him after that, and he came to an unexpected conclusion.

"And you feel all of that with me?" Daryl asked him. Glenn smiled lovingly.

"Yes."

Daryl smiled lovingly back. "Me, too."

Glenn was caught off guard. He wasn't expecting him to say that, especially so soon.

"…What?" He asked with hope in his voice. Daryl brought their joined hands up to hold Glenn's against his chest where his heart was beating fast.

"Feel that? That's all for you; you make me feel all those things you said. I imprinted on you, too, apparently. I know fer sure now I did. I love you…so, so much; more than anyone, hell, anything in my life." He confessed with such devotion and passion that it made Glenn's eyes water a little then Glenn leaned forward to embrace him, Daryl hugging back with the same fever.

"I love you, too, Daryl." Glenn chuckled out extremely happy. When they leaned back out of their embrace a bit, looking in to each other's eyes, they leaned back in and had their first kiss; it was deep and over flowed with so much love, they practically had fireworks shooting off in their hearts. It was the start of an amazing relationship.

A month later, mid-February

Glenn and Daryl have been dating for a month so far and everything between them has been going great. More than great, fantastic! They knew each other so well now. Obviously they didn't know everything about each other yet, but they were working their way there; no need to rush, right?

Glenn learned that Daryl was adopted, and that he never knew his biological parents, since they gave him away to foster care when he was still just an infant. He was then soon adopted by the Dixon family at age three and gained a loving mother, father, and brother. From that time all the way up till he reached thirteen he thought he was as normal as anyone else until he was fourteen and found himself as a dirty blonde, light brown colored wolf one day when he was running for what he felt like his life. He didn't tell his family because he was scared to. His adoptive parents told him that they were told his biological parents weren't ready for a kid, so they gave him away.

With that knowledge imbedded in his mind there was no way he was telling his adoptive family that he just turned in to a wolf. He thought they would freak out if he told them. Then they would surely put him back into foster care for being a monster, if they were nice enough to not kill him first. He knew he wouldn't be able to live through losing another family, so he kept it his little secret….for eighteen years. Glenn couldn't believe it the first time he heard it. For eighteen whole years Daryl has been keeping this secret inside, hidden away without being able to tell anyone, not one person.

Glenn knew for sure he wouldn't have been able to keep a secret for that long without telling, not even one person. Glenn was amazed at Daryl's self-discipline. It was another thing he loved and admired him for. Daryl actually thought at one point that he was a monster after the first time he shifted. He quickly tried to find a better explanation of this wolf thing that he was and could only come up with one that could fit his situation. That was when he started thinking he was a Werewolf. As far as he knew then, he was. Nothing else in his vocabulary and knowledge could come up with anything different, so he called himself a Werewolf.

He soon felt better and more comfortable being what he was and shifting. It took him a while to fully get the hang of the animal way of doing things and all the extra and enhanced stuff of his wolf form, but when he got it down he was a pretty dangerous force to mess around with, but Daryl still didn't know much about this wolf thing back then.

Glenn also found out that Daryl worked at a gun and hunting shop called MidtownUSA and worked there four times a week, his off days being the weekend and Wednesdays. Daryl learned lots about Glenn as well. He learned that Glenn was a foster kid, too but wasn't put in as early as Daryl. Glenn was put in at age ten and got adopted by the Rhae family when he was fifteen. The reason he was put in was because he became an orphan. His parents died in a house fire. Luckily he wasn't there when it happened. He used to live in Michigan with his biological parents before they moved down to Georgia for a job offer his father got. He was five when they moved here.

Daryl always wondered how Glenn knew so much about their kind. And Glenn told him it was all because of a nurse named Penny who practically was his mother for the four and a half years he was there at the foster home. He told Daryl that she told him everything and helped him through it all. Then he told Daryl that she was able to help him because she was a Wolf Shifter, too, which just blew Daryl's mind because he didn't know there was even more wolves than himself and Glenn here in Georgia. Daryl learned that the most amusing thing about Glenn was his thing with secrets. He just couldn't keep them from people he knew. Daryl thought it was cute that he was so compelled to be loyal and truthful with people he cared about; a true puppy, his puppy.

They know each other's wolf form pretty well, too. Daryl was a dirty blonde, light brown colored wolf while Glenn was a dark chocolate brown wolf. They were way bigger wolves than the normal. Their wolf forms were six feet tall when a normal wolf is only three to four feet tall. When Daryl saw Glenn as a wolf, he thought he was the most beautiful creature alive. Glenn thought Daryl looked just as sexy as a wolf as he is in human form. Glenn has noticed that over the past month he's known his boyfriend, he is only truly sweet, gentle, and kind to him and him alone; He's not very caring and nice to others much, or show any emotion that isn't anger, annoyance, possessiveness, smugness, or indifference to others either. That is unless Glenn wants him to, then he will. To some, that behavior might be a relationship breaker, but it really didn't bother Glenn that much; mainly because Daryl was reasonable with his anti-social issue. Glenn personally enjoyed being the only one able to reign in the beast of a boyfriend he had, it made him feel special and needed.

They were currently on their fifth date at a cozy Italian restaurant, nothing too fancy or big, just nice. The interior of the place was all tan and light yellow colors with small amounts of red. In the center of the restaurant was a common sized, square fish tank with palm trees and exotic bushes surrounding it. Glenn and Daryl were scanning through the menu when their waiter came.

"Hello, my name is Dan and I'll be your server today. What would you gentlemen like to drink?"

"Coke." Daryl replied.

"Same," Replied Glenn. Their server, Dan, wrote it down then left to work on their drink orders. Glenn looked around the place a little before he spoke again. "Nice place, very romantic." Daryl looked up from his menu to look at his boyfriend with a smile.

"Thanks…thought I'd go for suh-m that's in the middle; not too fancy, not too dingy."

Glenn smiled in content. "Well, you chose very well, baby." Glenn then leaned his head forward, Daryl meeting him in the middle for a quick kiss. When they separated they noticed their waiter was next to them with their drinks. He was staring at them for a second then cleared his throat feeling uncomfortable about the situation he walked in on. He sat the drinks in front of them then took their food orders. When he was done writing all the orders down and pocketed his notepad and pen, however, he didn't leave the table like he was originally supposed to at that moment. He instead just stood there staring at the Korean boy and the burly country looking man uncomfortably. When Daryl noticed this he turned his head to look at him with a threatening glare and a look of pure annoyance.

"What ya starin' at? Can't a guy kiss his boyfriend without eyes burnin' through his skull? Get movin' before I move you,"

The waiter's eyes widen briefly before he quickly walked away shaken a bit by the unexpected threat thrown at him. Daryl huffed triumphantly before turning his head back to his boyfriend who looked relieved the judgmental eyes were off them. Daryl's eyes took on an apologetic look.

"Sorry 'bout that." Daryl stated. Glenn gave a small smile.

"It's okay. I wasn't expecting to be completely free from rude reactions," He replied while squeezing Daryl's hand reassuringly, which was laced tightly with Glenn's on the table. "So what did your brother think of me?" He asked him. Glenn officially met Daryl's brother, Merle, a week ago. Daryl smiled at the memory.

"He said ya look mighty wimpy, but yer alright." Daryl said in amusement. Glenn blinked incredulously.

"Wimpy?" He said in disbelief and huffed. "He should see me lift a car or a ship; I bet he wouldn't be thinking that anymore then." He said good-naturedly in a cute pout. Daryl chuckled at Glenn's comical reaction.

Because they're Wolf Shifters they are way more enhanced and gifted than humans; in senses, in endurance, in resilience, and in strength as well. So lifting something heavy like a car or a ship would be no problem for them and won't even make them break a sweat in the process.

"Don't worry, I told'em to not underestimate you."

Glenn smiled proudly. "Good." That made Daryl laugh a little more. He had one sassy boyfriend. And he loved it.

Three days later Daryl and Glenn were in Atlanta. Glenn thought he'd show him around the city, since Daryl told him he had never really been in the city before. So here they were walking down the streets of Atlanta city, Glenn taking him to all the great places there and all of his personal favorite places, too.

"And this is my favorite coffee shop to go to. I think it's the best one in the city when it comes to taste. They always make it have just the right amount of flavor. If you drink coffee, you should try this place. It's worth every bit of money."

Daryl chuckled. "Sounds like it. How 'bout we try it tomorrow mornin'?"

"Okay. Will that be a coffee date then?" He playfully teased. Daryl gave a small smirk.

"You bet yer sweet ass it is." Daryl said playfully back. Glenn gave a smile, continuing the playfulness.

"Hmm, so I've got a sweet ass, do I?" He mused teasingly. That did it. Daryl gave off a low growl filled with desire – that couldn't reach human ears – before quickly pinning Glenn to the wall that was to their left. They weren't far from the coffee shop, only just passed it, so anyone coming out of the shop and turned left in their direction would see them if they looked near the wall. Daryl gazed at Glenn with eyes that were quickly filling with arousal by the second.

"Stop teasin'! Yer gonna end up makin' me ravish you in the middle of the city!" He warned in a purr of delight but also in embarrassment. Glenn briefly giggled at Daryl's response and smiled up at him.

"I didn't know I was getting to you that badly."

"Well, yer too damn sexy to resist, even in a heavily populated city."

Daryl then leaned in and began heatedly kissing Glenn, muffling his cute little laugh of surprise at Daryl's unexpected advance. Glenn brought his arms up and wrapped them around Daryl's neck to rest on his shoulders as they kissed passionately on the side of the street in the middle of Atlanta.

While they were making out, the door to the coffee shop opened and out popped a man that looked to be in his late 30's to early 40's. He held a bag in one hand and a cup of coffee in the other as he turned left to walk down the sidewalk.

When he passed the shop and was about to make it to the crosswalk ahead of him, he briefly glanced to his left to take in everything around him when he caught something in his side vision that drew his attention. Two people kissing….no….two guys kissing. And pretty heavily, too. This sickened the man deeply and made him scowl in disgust.

"Stop exposing everyone to your filth, sick ingrates!" The man exclaimed before throwing the less than half full cup of coffee directly at them. In the middle of the man's sentence, Glenn and Daryl slowed their kissing to a stop, Daryl looking over his shoulder while Glenn looked over Daryl's shoulder as well to see what the sudden voice was. Then they see the guy throw a cup at them.

Daryl was about to bat the fast approaching cup away, but Glenn acted quicker by shifting his eyes from the stranger to look at the cup flying towards them then suddenly the cup froze in mid-air just thirty-six inches away from them and just stuck there unmoving. The man looked terrified at what he just witnessed and ran away from them, but he wasn't the only one that didn't expect that outcome.

Daryl was surprised as well, having never seen this till now. He looked back at Glenn with his jaw hanging open in astonishment then looked back at the cup that was still standing still in mid-air behind him as if someone pushed the pause button. Glenn dropped his arms from around Daryl's neck then looked up at the unmoving cup and held his hand up. The cup suddenly came back to life and floated smoothly down to Glenn's open hand, Daryl following the movement with his eyes then looked at Glenn completely gobsmacked.

"How did you….h-how did…?" Daryl stuttered out as Glenn opened the lid of the cup and stuck his finger in the coffee to check the temperature. After doing that He put the lid back on and looked up at his speechless boyfriend with a sheepish smile.

"Telekinesis. At least this wasn't hot, that would've really burned if it landed on us." Glenn mused completely calm. Daryl just stared at him.

"Teleki-what-a?" Daryl asked stupidly.

"Telekinesis; it means I can control things with my mind." He conveyed. Daryl blinked in disbelief.

"And I'm findin' out about this now?" Daryl asked with a raised brow. Glenn rubbed the back of his neck sheepishly.

"Yeah," He drawled. "Sorry about that. I kind'a forgot to tell you. I don't use it all the time, so it never crossed my mind that I didn't tell you about it. Sorry."

Daryl gave a small smile. "It's alright. That was pretty cool what you did there, stopping it like that."

Glenn lightly blushed. "Thanks."

"That reminds me. I forgot to tell you somethin', too." Stated Daryl as they began walking again, Glenn dumping the coffee cup in a nearby trashcan.

"Sure, what is it?"

"I can do somethin' interestin', too."

Glenn looked over at him with a pleasantly surprised smile. "Really, what?"

"I can phase through solids." Daryl replied. Glenn looked excited by that.

"Really? That's awesome! Can you show me?" He asked curiously and eager. Daryl chuckled at how interested he was.

"Sure, but we gotta pick a place that has no one around."

"No problem, I know just the place. Follow me, it's not far." Glenn said before he grabbed Daryl's hand to lead him to a secluded area. A couple streets over, Glenn lead him to a small fenced in area that was in the shape of a square on the side of the street. It had a big bushy tree there that would give them good cover should anyone pass by.

"This should be good." Stated Glenn.

"Yeah, this'll do." Daryl replied before they jumped the fence and walked behind the wall that separated them from public eyes and walked near the tree.

"So what are you going to go through? The wall or the tree?"

"I'll go fer the wall," Daryl decided. There was a wall in front of them and a wall to their left, which were connected. Daryl took the wall in front of them first. Daryl gazed over at Glenn with a smile. "Ya ready?"

Glenn gave an enthusiastic nod. "Yeah, ready when you are."

And with that said, Daryl walked forward towards the wall, and when he got right up to it he vanished right through the brick wall. Glenn grinned thoroughly impressed and walked up to the wall Daryl just went through and put a hand on it, feeling pure solid brick.

"Wow…that is so cool!"

Unknown to Glenn, Daryl came out of the wall that was next to them and snuck up behind Glenn.

"Isn't it?" Daryl said while wrapping his arms around Glenn suddenly without warning. Glenn jerked a bit in surprise then giggled.

"Don't do that!" Glenn then turned to face him. "Where did you come from?"

Daryl chuckled at Glenn's cute reation. "There," He pointed to the wall on their left. "Yer back was turned, you didn't see me comin', I couldn't resist."

"Mmhmm." Glenn mock pouted cutely with his arms crossed pretending to be mad at him.

Daryl started tickling him. That shattered Glenn's charade and made him breakout laughing trying to pull the hands away from his ticklish body. Daryl eventually stopped and pulled Glenn to him, taking him in to his arms and kissed him.

"We better get going," Glenn warned when they stopped kissing.

"Even though this is a secluded place, it doesn't permanently stay that way."

Daryl agreed and they left the little square area and roamed the city a bit more before leaving to go back to Daryl's home area.
