Chapter 10: Acceptance

I took a small sip of the orange juice enjoying it's sweet scented taste. I admired the neatly stacked pancakes I made sitting on a plate infront of me. I made sure to spread whip cream on top of them and sprinkle blueberries on top aswell.

This is a great start to my weekend. Enjoying an amazing breakfast in bed while I watch television. The pancakes were beyond amazing. I really knew how to cook. I always find a way to suprise myself.

I for one couldn't stop thinking about last night. I have a girlfriend now. This is what I wanted after all. I yearned to be more than friends with Dolly and now It's finally happened. But, How will I break the news to Dad?

Knock!

Knock!

Knock!

I became startled and dropped my fork. The knocking had came from my window. I turned my head towards the window expecting to see a treebranch or something brushing up against my window, but it turned out to be Dolly.

I had so many questions right now. Like, How did she find my house? and, How was she able to climb up to my window.

I delicately got up from the bed and tip toed towards the window unlocking it sliding it upwards. Dolly gave me a peck on the cheek and I watched as she climbed through my window entering my room. "What are you doing here?"

Dolly lazily collapsed onto my bed snuggling into the covers her tail wagging in the air with excitement. "I can't come say good morning to my boyfriend?", She pouted.

"But, my dad's here.", I stated. "He doesn't know I even have a girlfriend, yet alone one that's a totally different species than me."

"Is he racist or something?"

"No of course not. I'm just not sure how he'll react in general.", I answered. I mean Dad can be very chill about things, but I don't know how he'd feel about me being in a relationship especially since this my first time being in a relationship.

Suddenly there was a couple soft knocks at my bedroom door. Me and Dolly shared a concerned glare at each other before I pointed to my closet. "Quick! Dolly h-!"

"Aaron don't even bother I heard everything! I know your girlfriend is there open up the door.", Dad blurted from the other side of the door. I stopped before I could hide Dolly. "I just wanna meet her is all!"

I wasn't sure about this. I looked to Dolly to see if she had a plan. "Go ahead dude.", Dolly nudged. Taking a deep breathe to alleviate my incoming panic attack, I opened my bedroom door allowing Dad to step in.

Dolly's eyes widened upon seeing my Dad and the same reaction came from my Dad. "Mr. Daniels?", She asked with disbelief.

"Dolly?"

They knew each other?! How though?

"You know her Dad?", I questioned.

"Of course I do. Me and her Dad are partners and real good buddies. Also we both work in the same firefighter division.", He answered. He knows Doug? And Dad's a firefighter?

"So you're ok with us being together?"

"Why not? This honestly makes me happy you've found someone to love. I wouldn't even care if you were gay, Love is Love in my book.", He retorted. I sighed in relief wiping away the sweat from my face. Damn, Dad is so calm and honest about everything.

"Well I just came in to check on you two. Treat her right, son. Have fun you two lovebirds.", He winked before shutting the door.

I sat down on bed next to Dolly who seemed confused. "Wow, He's so chill about all this.", Dolly mentioned puzzled. I nodded in agreement.

Dolly brought an arm around me, "So what do you want to do for the day?"

After a couple of seconds of thinking I chuckled to myself. I know just what we can do.

-Hours Later-

"Damn it!", I groaned in frustration. This is the tenth time she's beaten me. We've been playing Super Smash Bros for God knows how long. Time flies by fast when you're having fun.

Dolly's a beginner at this game, but picked up on the game's mechanics quite surprisingly fast. "This is a lot more entertaining than Puddlewulf.", She said.

I tilted my head, "Puddlewulf?"

"Just some game Dylan is obsessed with.", Dolly shrugged. "Come on let's go again."

We appeared on the roster screen showing all the characters to choose from. I picked Sonic the Hedgehog while Dolly picked Duck Hunt.

She was obsessed with Duck Hunt. Maybe because he seemed to be the only true canine fighter in the game next to Star Wolf and Star Fox. We pressed start choosing a random arena to battle in.

As we starting fighting a thought popped up in my mind, "Say Dolly, Have you ever been in a relationship before?"

"I mean...I wouldn't really call them relationships, but I've gotten romantic involved a boy or two before.", She replied.

"What were they like?", Dolly paused the game after I asked her that.

"Um...Well you know Hansel?"

"You mean that husky that's always wearing that Turtleneck sweater and loves poetry?", I asked.

"Yeah...I had like a big crush on him. I tried plenty of times to show him that I liked him, but he just didn't get the memo. If anything it seems like he's more fond of Dylan than me.", She explained. "Then there was Spike a Doberman I met when we were on Vacay in Cornhill one time, but that's a totally different story."

"Do your Mom and Dad know were dating?"

"Yeah. They're the ones that told me I should tell you my feelings."

We continued the game in silence and Dolly had me down to 1 stock while she still had 3. This is not looking good for me whatsoever.

Just in the corner of the screen a smash ball appeared. "Jackpot!", I said is if it would make much of a difference if I got it or not.

I hurriedly made Sonic run towards the power up, but unfortunately for me Duck Hunt grabbed Sonic tossing him off the stage and did a down air making sure I couldn't jump right back on to the stage.

"Yes eleven victories in a row!", Dolly cheered. "I need to start coming over here more often."

"Oh Dolly, Please do.", I thought.

"What time is it anyway?"

Dolly pulled out her phone reading the time. The time read 6:45, "Oh crap!, I gotta get going."

She cupped my checks in her hands and brought my face close to hers our lips connecting.

That feeling I had previously felt last night had returned once again and I was enjoying every last second of it. The heart pounding, our soft moans, and everything else about it was giving me this feeling. It was more than Love I could tell that much.

We broke our passionate kiss and Dolly seductively winked at me. "See ya handsome."

I watched her leave my house and waved goodbye from my window. "I'm the luckiest boy on Earth.", I muttered.
