Love Is Love

Chapter 4

Brendan POV

I don't own Alpha and Omega, sadly.

After what felt like forever, we finally made it to Hutch's den. He still seemed a little down in the dumps since I turned down all of his advancements, but it was the truth. It needed to be said, or else I would've hurt him greatly. That was something that I did extremely well when it came to relationships. Ever since I was little and found out that I swung the other way, it was hard for me to keep a boyfriend around for long enough, since my parents were over protective and them blaming me for all of the problems that he might've created. And then there was the time that I thought I was straight. Me and relationships just don't mix fairly well.

"Nice place…" I say, walking in the den. I instantly noticed that we were a good distance away from the rest of the pack, making me wonder how Hutch was doing socially. The den walls were covered in vines and small patches of dirt, giving it some kind of character.

"I guess…" Hutch mumbles, glumly. I sigh to myself, knowing that I might've hurt this poor wolf. I kept walking around, getting acquainted with the den in its entirety, not noticing Hutch laying down towards the back of the den, putting his head into his arms. When I finally notice him laying down, my ears and tail droop, and I start to slowly walk back towards him. He hears my footsteps, his ears perking up, but that is all he does to show that he knows that I am walking towards him.

"Hey… You alright?" I ask him, sitting a small distance away from him. He doesn't say a word, which worries me even more. I get closer to him, lean down, and nudge him slightly behind his left ear. I notice that his face had made one of pure joy, and a wicked smile grew onto my face. Hutch saw this, because he turned to me, pleading with his eyes that I don't do it.

"Brendan, plea-" I cut him off by doing it again, and his back arches slightly. After a few minutes of me nudging behind his ear, I can hear him make, almost, inaudible noises that can only be explained from the amount of joy he was receiving from this treatment. I start to lick behind his ear, slow and steady, and a surprise comes out of Hutch's muzzle: A moan.

I stop, looking straight at him, and see he was blushing lick crazy. It was a light moan, something only people inside the den would be able to hear, but still heart stopping none the less. Hutch shoots up in an instant, looking me in the eyes.

"Brendan, I'm so sorry! Really, that didn't mean to come out!" Hutch kept going on about how sorry he was, but I zoned him out after the first few sentences. I only stared into his eyes, lost within him. I was so mesmerized by them that I didn't even notice that Hutch had stopped talking, and was trying to get my attention back. I finally came to, and noticed the look on Hutch's face. His head was tilted, his right ear droopier than his left ear, and it made him so adorable. So adorable that I got lost in the moment and grabbed the sides of his head. He didn't stop me, but at the same time, he didn't move at all, so I took it as the 'ok', closing the distance between our muzzles. He closed his eyes, while mine were half lidded and slightly closed.

When I finally closed my eyes is when our lips touched, mine slightly grazing over his. Seemingly irritated on waiting, he pushed our lips together, him fighting for dominance. I could feel Hutch's heart beat we were so close. His chest rubbed up against mine, making the moment a lot better than it was originally going to be. I tried to push my tongue into his mouth, and he gave me access. I explored his mouth while he explored mine, both of us fighting for dominance over the other. My tail was wagging faster than I thought was possible. Both of us were pushing back against the other, trying to reach down each other's throats.

After what seemed like forever, we both slowly pulled away from each other. I smiled at him, while Hutch seemed to be taking in the fact that we just kissed. We both were blushing, though, and we both were basking in each other's embrace.

"What… just happened?" Hutch asked, looking at me directly in the eyes. I froze up, trying to break away from his eyes.

"I don't know… Did it… feel right to you?" I asked him, nervousness evident in my voice. Hutch only smiled, and put his head under my chin, burying it deep into the crook of my neck. I laughed a little bit, putting my arm around him and pulling him closer to me.

"I'll take that as a yes." I answer for him. He only nods his head, his tail wagging like crazy. I once again laugh at this, wrapping my tail around his. We sat in complete silence, loving the feeling of the other.

"Brendan?" I look down at him. He was looking up at me, ears flat against his head. "What ever happened to just keeping us as friends?" Realization comes upon me for what I had said earlier, and I am brought right back into the guilty feeling. I see that Hutch slowly starts to pull away, making me extremely sad.

"What's wrong, Hutch?" I ask him. He was looking away from me, making me nervous. I got closer to him, wrapping him straight into a hug. I smiled, putting my head on top of his, with some great difficulty.

"Damn it all to hell…" I whisper into his ear. I feel his tail start to wag, making mine start to wag as well. I kissed the top of his head, expecting him to somehow counter act this action, but we were stopped by someone clearing their throat at the entrance of the den. We both look towards the direction of the sound, and I instantly gain a snarl, bringing Hutch closer to me, because, standing in the doorway was none other than Cando himself. He was glaring at the both of us, not moving and not showing any other emotion other than hate. An idea popped into my head, and so I put my head under Hutch's and started to nuzzle, as if saying, "Mine". Cando got slightly angrier at this, but didn't say a thing.

"What do you want, Cando?" Hutch asks. I start to lick and kiss the side of Hutch's neck, making him squirm slightly at the feeling.

"The leaders want to talk to Brendan. They invited the both of you over for dinner." He says, turning around and then leaving. I stop what I was doing, and get up to leave.

"Where do you think you're going?" Hutch asks, grabbing my tail and pulling me back towards him. I give him a look, and he understands completely. "Alright, let's go…" He says, getting up and starting to leave. I follow suit, walking next to him and interlocking our tails the whole way.

Third Person POV

The walk between the two was silent, but what was there to say? Both male wolves had just kissed, and now they were walking with their tails intertwined, as if they were dating. This sparked a question in both their minds, "Are we dating?".

Still, nothing was said between the two as they walked up the ramp into the main den, housing the Pack Leaders. By now, both were walking extremely close together, and both had their tails still intertwined. Brendan had stolen glances at Hutch, who wasn't showing that he knew it was happening.

When the finally arrived is when they started to move farther apart. Still not saying a word to the other, they walked up the ramp and into the den. What they saw surprised Hutch, but confused Brendan.

"Winston, Eve, Garth, and Lilly. What are you guys doing here?" He asked. Brendan looked over the 4 new people he hadn't seen before, and also saw that Humphrey and Kate were there as well. He bowed his head slightly to them. Kate bowed back, and Humphrey just waved, getting a scowl from Kate in the process.

"My dad is coming as well, he just had to finish up a few things over on the Eastern Side." Garth said. Brendan raised his eyebrow, seemingly confused about everything. Hutch noticed this, and picked up the slack.

"Brendan, this is Winston," Hutch pointed to Winston, who bowed his head slightly. "Eve, his wife," Hutch's pointing paw moved from Winston to Eve, and it went like that all the way down the line, even when Tony had arrived at the den.

Hours went by with laughing and fun, learning things about everyone. Even Tony was laughing, and this was a rare thing.

After the laughing died down, though, the seriousness hit the conversation.

"So," Winston started. "You came here to try and get help for your pack. The question we are all wondering is why didn't the leader come down?" Brendan gained a solemn face, not showing any emotion whatsoever.

"Dad, Kate did say that the lead-" Lilly started, only to be stopped by a silent shush from Winston. Everyone was waiting for an answer, putting Brendan on the spotlight. He look at all of the faces, still not showing any emotion.

"Zach had another son, correct? He is older than you, so he's the leader. Why didn't he come down?" Tony asked. After a full minute, Brendan showed a new emotion, one that shocked everyone slightly: anger.

"My brother is the reason that our father is dead." He finally answered, after what seemed like forever. Not one jaw was not slacked in the room.

"So wait," Hutch began. "That would mean…"

"Yes, Hutch. You are looking at the Pack Leader for the Northern Pack, or what is left of it anyways…"
