Our apologies! Please enjoy :)


Barkley had been grounded to the house for the remainder of the week. His wife did some research on his new medication and found out that he was just experiencing the regular side effects. They had lessened drastically over the last couple days. He felt alright for the most part but about an hour after he took that little orange triangle it made him feel all drowsy and ready for bed. He only felt small waves of nausea but he typically fell asleep without having to hurl anything.

It was doable, he felt a bit sluggish and getting up too quick was now something that triggered momentary dizziness, but it wasn't anything he couldn't handle.

Barkley, how are you? Sorry, I've no idea how to use this thing. - Ellie

The wolf smiled and sent a text right back to his best friend and unofficial brother, Elliot Where.

Ellie, buddy! Been a long time, I miss you. I'm doing okay, could be better could be worse. I'd rather talk to you in person.

He smiled when a text came through right away.

Anytime, Barks. I'll be over tonight, chill my bourbon and glass. ;) - Ellie

The older wolf could hardly contain his smile, he didn't realize how much he missed his dear friend until he found out how to text back. Technology was never a friend of Where's, more of his 'greatest foe'.

He decided he'd been good enough to take the pill on time every day so tonight he'd be down for a few drinks with his best buddy this Friday night. Barkley leaned over and kissed his sleeping wife's cheek and he got up slowly to head downstairs and start making breakfast. It was the first time he felt hungry in these past few days.

Deuce had his headphones in as he jammed to favorite rock band, the gorgon was proud of himself for already having all the lunches packed. He even made one for Ma to take to work and one for Pops if he was hungry before someone got home, honestly he didn't know how the elder wolf was feeling but he wanted to be prepared.

Deuce figured pancakes for breakfast would be best for today, also fruit salad and sausages. He liked knowing the family had a good start to their day.

Barkley didn't want to bother his busy gorgon-son, so he grabbed a mug out of the cupboard and began to brew a fresh pot of coffee. He noticed that the dishes needed to be done. He had no problem doing those while he waited for coffee. He wondered if part of his headache was the fact he was lacking caffeine. He knew he hadn't consumed much of anything lately.

He smirked when the gorgon was startled by his presence. "Good morning, bud."

Removing the earbuds from his ears. "Morning Pops. You're looking more lively. How you feeling?" The gorgon said flipping the pancake, last thing he wanted them to do was burn.

"Y'know, I'm doing alright. Sometimes I feel a bit dizzy but I can handle it. I've figured out that I'm ready for bed not long after I take it, it makes me feel like I'm gonna be sick but I've mastered getting to sleep before hurling and I'm feeling hungry now so – I assume that's a good thing." He sighed contentedly after that first sip of coffee, half the time he didn't even finish it. He just needed the first few sips to kick in and he was good for the rest of the day. "How are you doing?"

Deuce thought about it for a minute, how was he doing? Honestly the gorgon didn't know, he been more concerned with what had been going on with Pops. "I'm alright, little tired." For some reason last night Deuce couldn't fall asleep, he felt bad because he was sure Clawd was kept awake because of him.

Barkley gave a nod. "I'm sorry if worrying about me has kept you up at all." He couldn't control what stressed the gorgon out but he'd feel bad if he knew his situation added onto the boy's mind. "Caring about people sucks, doesn't it?" He playfully nudged the gorgon as he started the water for dishes.

Two sleepy fluffs rounded the corner and entered the kitchen. Howlmilton and Howldon attached themselves to either side of Barkley's hips. "Hi pops," Howldon snuggled into his frame.

"Good morning boys, are you both feeling alright? You don't have to be up for another hour at least." He asked them, his hands in soapy water otherwise he'd be checking their foreheads.

"I'm fine," Howlmilton nudged his father's arm. "Howldon wet the bed."

The other twin's eyes narrowed and he let out a warning growl. "I did not."

"Even if you did," Barkley looked down on Howldon's side. "it happens sometimes. No need to be ashamed buddy."

"I didn't, promise." Deuce wanted to take his shades off to look at Howldon more closely. Was that a white patch of fur just under his chin? He always had the hardest time telling the twins apart.

"Pops, what's on Howldon?" Deuce began to wonder if the pup had gotten into the last of the cupcakes when everyone was sleeping. With Pops down, it was a lot easier to sneak around the house.

Barkley laughed, "It wouldn't fail a drug test, if that's what you're wondering. It's not frosting from those cupcakes last night either."

Howldon nuzzled into his father.

"It's a white patch of fur." Howlmilton headed over to Deuce, standing next to him, observing what he was doing. He showed the gorgon his left wrist. Distinctly on the right side of it was his own patch of white fur. It was almost distinctly crescent moon shaped.

"Interesting, so that's how you tell these fluffballs apart? When they're standing still long enough of course." The gorgon said, taking the fork and stabbing an already done sausage and offering it to Howlmilton.

The half-awake pup nearly bounced at the opportunity. "Thanks!" He ate the sausage as best he could without burning his salivating mouth.

Howldon's nose curiously sniffed the air, he wanted one too but he didn't want to leave his father's side. "I'm alright," Barkley dried his hands off and left the dishes in the rack. He'd put them away later. He knelt down and looked up at one of his double pups. "I don't feel as sick as I have the last couple days."

"Can I snuggle with you before I get ready for school, pops?" Howldon asked, he was having a real hard time leaving the side of the elder wolf.

"Absolutely buddy, you go to the sectional, I'll be there in a bit." He directed the younger pup, who's ears flattened but he did what was asked of him. Howlmilton wouldn't mind some snuggles with his dad either. "If you see Where today," Barkley began as the twin fluffs made their way into the living room. "tell him he's not making excuses to slither out of being here later tonight. It's been way too long, I miss my homeboy."

Deuce chuckled as he stabbed a second sausage for the other fluff. "Sure thing Pops, I'll drag him here if I gotta."

"Thatta boy, I can always count on you." Barkley took the fork with the sausage with him into the living room, where Howldon ate half and gave his brother the rest – he always had been the better sharer than Howlmilton.

Clawd tip-toed around the corner, he shushed pops and the twins to ensure they wouldn't give him away. He slowly approached the gorgon male whom had his back turned. He snuck up behind him and wrapped his arms around the other, kissing his neck almost instantly. What could he say? Their late night sexual activity left him still wanting more.

Deuce jumped a little before his body relaxed into the other's arms. "Clawd… I'm cooking." The gorgon whined slightly as he let the other's mouth kiss his neck.

"You sure are," he told the other suavely as he nearly pressed the gorgon into the counter, the only thing between them were clothes… and how the wolf wished they weren't on. "guaranteed I could make you hotter than whatever you're cooking right now." He whispered into his boyfriend's ear.

Deuce only began to tremble when he felt Clawd's tongue trail from the nape of his neck upward.

"Are you challenging yourself there?" The gorgon questioned as he tried his best to hold back a moan. Deuce both loved and hated how the wolf knew all the right spots to hit. "Because playing with fire isn't safe y'know."

"Oh I know," He nipped at Deuce's earlobe and dug his claws into the shorter's hips. "but y'know very well the pain is more than half the fun."

"Yes." Deuce hissed as he brought the wolf's lips to his, he honestly didn't mind if Clawd marked him up. He would wear them with pride, show everyone he belonged to the wolf. That he was untouchable.

The most precious thing to Deuce was how Clawd smiled when they kissed. He could truly feel it and it made his heart swell for the wolf even more than it already did.

While Clawd and Deuce were in the middle of their soft-core porn, Clawdeen sneakily grabbed 2 sausage links and downed them before either one of them noticed. She sheepishly waved and then swallowed.

"Already did that last night." Clawd winked at her.

She grinned. "You dirty dog."

"THE PANCAKES!" Deuce wiggled out of Clawd's arms, to double check on the food to make sure it wasn't burnt. A smile swept across his face when he noticed he was able to save everything in time.

Clawdeen couldn't help but to giggle. "You got ditched for a bunch of batter, tell me how irresistible you are now bro?"

Clawd rolled his eyes and sighed dramatically. "I'll always come second to his culinary prowess. But it's fine, just something I'll have to deal with I guess." He wiped a fake tear away.

"Don't worry babe, I'll make it up to you." Deuce said with a playful wink as he looked for a big enough platter to plate the pancakes.

Clawnor brought his pillow downstairs and he detoured to the kitchen long enough to steal a sausage link, "Good morning," he greeted, his eyes barely opened as he headed towards the living room.

Howleen stole a pancake before it even hit the plate. She grabbed 3 sausage links and rolled almost a burrito type-thing within her pancake. "Thanks!"

"On the upside you guys save on dishes." The gorgon couldn't help but chuckle as he watched the youngest female munch on her homemade burrito.

Clawd lightly sighed and helped himself to a plate, he was the most hungry for Deuce in his bed… but he supposed food would do. "Are you ready to shoot some hoops this morning, babe?" He lightly bounced around the gorgon as he headed for the dining table. He felt great this morning, however their choice of wind down activity probably had a lot to do with it.

"You totally got laid," Clawdeen commented as she rubbed her brother's shoulder. "your fur's pretty soft."

Clawd bit down on his lip. "Actually, I stole your conditioner."

She lightly growled but smiled. "I'll take you shopping to buy your own stuff, our fur types aren't exactly the same. I'll get you real soft. Promise! If you think he can't keep his hands off you now… just you wait."

That sounded like a good time to him, he wanted to do everything he could to impress the gorgon. He didn't know what he'd be capable of doing if anyone looked at his Deuce. . .

(¯`·._(¯`·._(¯`·._( MONSTER HIGH )_.·´¯)_.·´¯)_.·´¯)

Just as Deuce promised he had the wolf trapped between his body and his car's leather seat. He was kissing along the other's jaw as he began unbuttoning the wolf's shirt. They arrived a few minutes earlier than the janitor who normally opened the gymnasium doors for the casketball team. Heck they were the first outta anyone on the team to show up so far.

Clawd would've torn it right off if he didn't have to remain dressed for school. "Deuce..." he called out lightly, his breath hitching when the gorgon gave a quick roll of his hips. The wolf buried his face in the other's shoulder, kissing and nipping any piece of flesh he could get to. By the time he was done with Deuce today, the entire world would know exactly who he belonged to.

"Yes?" The gorgon hissed, his voice filled with desire. As he continued to place cascaded kisses along the wolf's chest. He could literally spend hours looking at the other's body.

The werewolf couldn't understand why the simple act of the shorter touching his chest gave him such strong pleasurable feelings. "Oh shit," his breathing was labored, but Deuce knew exactly what he was doing. He knew how to make the strong werewolf crumble in a matter of seconds. He wanted to check on the time but he soon lost his train of thought. "you know exactly what you want this morning, don't you babe?" Clawd pulled him into another heated kiss.

"Well you do drive me wild." The gorgon hissed after they broke the kiss for air.

Deuce wouldn't lie, he been doing a little bit of research and there was something he read that caught his attention. The gorgon had been curious about different positions they could try, he figured this was the prefect moment to try one of them out. The gorgon grabbed the wolf's belt and unfastened it in one movement, Deuce hissed slightly at the pants before he worked moving them and the wolf's boxers down exposing him.

"Damn, you're beautiful." The gorgon complemented as he kissed the wolf's navel before going back to the task at hand.

Deuce placed his hand upon the wolf's shoulder for support as he lowered himself down onto the wolf, there was some stinging but nothing the gorgon couldn't handle.

Clawd reached up and caressed Deuce's cheek, "Are you sure you're alright with this?" He asked the gorgon as he noticed a bit of a wince when he positioned himself properly.

He nodded and took a few moments to make sure everything was good before he started moving his hips to the rhythm of the radio, that happened to be playing Clawd's favorite type of music.

He bit down on his lip so hard he drew a bit of blood. He then dug his claws into the shoulder of the shorter, he dragged them down the flesh of his beloved. "You got some... tricks up your slee-eve, don't you?" He asked his boyfriend. He was doing everything right.

"I'll never kiss and tell." The gorgon flirted with a wink. Deuce let a moan escape when he felt Clawd roll his hips in return, causing him to go in deeper hitting the right spot. The gorgon took a mental note - they were so gonna to do this one again.

Clawd began to feel the familiar building just under his navel, however he didn't want to release before his gorgon had the chance to. He wasn't sure where the other was in terms of possible climax. He clawed at Deuce's neck long enough to bring him down to kiss him feverishly.

(¯`·._(¯`·._(¯`·._( MONSTER HIGH )_.·´¯)_.·´¯)_.·´¯)

Meanwhile both Simon and Iris Clops got out of his signature forest green SUV. "Do you have everything, sis?" He asked her as he hit the lock button on his remote started.

Petite Iris nodded, almost having fell out of her brother's vehicle. She was a klutz on the norm, she wasn't sure how her brother could drive with the lack of depth perception... however he wore a monocle when he operated the vehicle.

Deuce's hand hit the window precisely at that moment for support while his needy wolf kissed him with a burning passion.

Iris and Simon jumped when they saw a hand on fogged up windows of Deuce's iconic, black and green Dodge Challenger. It slid down and revealed a steamy image of Deuce Gorgon and Clawd Wolf, both naked and indulging in a very intimate exchange.

Simon instinctively covered Iris' eye, but she shoved his hand away, though they both couldn't stop watching. 'They are very much in love with one another.' The taller didn't realized he was now hunched over, purposely looking in the window. It wasn't until he heard a mixture of moans and growling that he had to drag his sister and himself away from the steamed up vehicle.

(¯`·._(¯`·._(¯`·._( MONSTER HIGH )_.·´¯)_.·´¯)_.·´¯)

"Clawd." The gorgon whined as he wanted one more kiss before they entered the change room, this was the part of the relationship he wasn't fond of. It wasn't that he was ashamed, it was the fact the gorgon didn't want to make his friends and teammates uncomfortable. He wished he could just ask them, see where they stood.

The wolf grinned at his boyfriend, he knew exactly what he wanted. Clawd grabbed Deuce by the vest and pulled him in suddenly, forcing their lips together. If he didn't know any better, he'd think there was a full moon scheduled tonight. It would certainly explain his aggressive behavior.

They pulled apart suddenly when the gymnasium doors opened. Clawd growled in the direction but sighed when it was Simon. "Good morning lov- uh, co-captains? Are we ready to bounce balls- uh, casketballs... around? Plentifully?" Simon rubbed the back of his neck nervously as he chuckled – hoping to cover up his awkwardness.

"Are you feeling alright, big guy?" Clawd asked him, raising an eyebrow.

"Yes, sir! Wonderful, probably not as wonderful as you- uh, no I'm great. Thank you. Salutations." Simon bolted for the change room door so fast he almost knocked himself out, he would've had he not ducked.

"Huh," Clawd wondered out loud. Wondering what the cyclops' problem was.

"I take that as our cue to get ready?" The gorgon said stealing one last kiss before heading the same direction as the cyclops. Part of him began to wonder if Simon had seen them kissing, that was why he was acting funny.

Clawd heaved a dramatic sigh. "Ugh, unfortunately." He frowned. "I just wanna kiss you all day, can that be an extracurricular? That's a skill that'll look real good on my resume."

Deuce gave a playful roll of his eyes and squeaked when Clawd grabbed his butt. Today would be tough to get through. Very tough.
