Chapter 3: Shot In The Dark
Humphrey's POV
I pulled into my driveway, my mind deep in thought. "I have to tell her how I feel. Maybe I'll even get lucky." I blushed madly at this thought. "Fucking brain!" I thought.
Kate then spoke up. "Sooooo can you unlock the car or are we just gonna sit here?" She said sarcastically.
"Huh what?" I said. Kate just pointed to the locks on the door. "Oh shit, sorry, I was thinking about stuff." "About what?"
"Being suspended from school on the first day of junior year." I said lying.
3rd person POV
Humphrey lived on the outside of town in a large house, with the forest behind it. He would hunt there every season, because his uncle taught him how. He had 3 full gun safes in this house and one half empty, since Humphrey was out for a year when his parents died he was eighteen, and legally owned all these guns.
Humphrey's POV
We walked into my house, and I turned on the Xbox. "So, resident evil? I asked. "Hell yeah, I've wanted to play that since it came out!" Kate yelled excited.
"Ok, do you wanna go first?" I asked. "No I don't want the first jumpscare." She said.
"Alright, I don't care either way. Do you wanna switch after an hour?" I asked politely.
"Yeah, that sounds good." Kate responded.
I started playing, and after an hour I handed the controller to Kate.
"Ah shit. The first jumpscare didn't happen yet." She whined. "Haha you're gonna get it!" I yelled jokingly.
(In game) She went down a flight of stairs, and the first jumpscare happened.
"Ahhhhhh!" Kate shrieked, throwing the controller on the ground. She then clung onto me, as if I were a pillow. "Sorry… I w-was a l-little scared." She said getting off me. "It's ok, we're best friends, you can hug me as long as you want." I said wrapping my arms around her.
"Thanks Humph." She said. "How about we just talk for a while and listen to some music?" I asked, seeing Kate was still a little scared. "Ok, I'd like that much better." She said "But we can play the game later." She added.
"Ok." I said grabbing the Xbox controller and selecting the music app. "What do you wanna hear?" I asked, knowing we liked the same kind of music. "How about Still Counting, by Volbeat?" She said starting to hum the tune. "Hell yeah, that song's fucking awesome." I said beaming a smile. I played the song.
"Counting all the assholes in the room, well I'm definitely not alone!" Kate and I sang together. Our voices match perfectly.
"What did you want to talk about?" Kate asked kind of seriously. "Well, stuff like we always do, is there anyone special you have your eye on?" I asked.
Kate's POV
I blushed almost instantly. "Now's my chance, I could tell him now, but what if he rejects me, and it ruins our friendship? Oh what do I do?" I thought. "Tell him!" My conscience screamed to me. "Yes." I answered vaguely.
Humphrey's POV
My face sank when I heard that. "That's it, it's over. My quest to get Kate is done, she doesn't love me." I thought, solemnly.
"Who?" I asked, not too thrilled to hear the answer.
"Well, I can't say his name, but he's really cute, caring, and strong. He's literally the perfect guy, I want to be with him so bad." Kate said.
The music launched into "Fallen" by Volbeat. Kate started to sing along, but noticed me, feeling sad.
"Whats up Humph?" She asked concerned. "Well, it's good that you have a crush, and he might like you back, but my crush will never like me back." I said, half angry half sad. "I didn't know you had a crush." Kate said.
"Why not, you do?" I said spitefully, knowing my crush was actually right in front of me. "Humphrey, I'm sure she loves you just as much as you love her." "I wish that was true, but no, she doesn't, she told me she likes another guy." I said, even more depressed.
"Well, on a new subject, you want something to drink?" I asked. "Yeah, water would be nice." Kate yelled to me, in the kitchen. "How about one of these?" I asked, holding up two beers. "Oh hell yeah, but how did you get them?" Kate asked puzzled. "Remember Sam, my cousin who just turned twenty-one?." "Yeah." she said. "Well yeah." I said. "Only one each though, we have to be 'responsible'." I said, putting a sarcastic emphasis on responsible. "Ok." She said disappointed. I handed her the opened beer and sat next to her on the couch. We talked some more, but I couldn't get into it, Kate liked someone else.
After three hours, I looked at the clock in the living room. It read 11:30. "Welp, I'm going to bed." I said with a yawn. "Me too, I'm tired." Kate said, also with a yawn. "I'll get you a blanket and you can have the guest room." I said. "Can I sleep in your room, with you?" Kate asked.
My heart kept into my throat. "What did she just say?" I calmed down finally. "Yeah, I guess that's alright." I finally said. "Yay!" Kate said running upstairs.
As if on cue, it began to thunderstorm. "Great." I muttered.
I walked upstairs, and into my room. Kate was standing there looking through her bag. She pulled out an old t-shirt I recognized. "Hey that's the shirt I gave you from the Volbeat and Five Finger Death Punch concert I went to!" I said, wondering why she kept it.
"Yeah, it's so soft, I sleep in it almost every night." She said, blushing. The real reason was it smelled like Humphrey.
Kate took off her shirt, revealing her amazing, D-cup jewels. I felt myself getting stiff, so I walked out to the bathroom. When it was down, I entered the room again. Kate was stand in there in just the shirt and panties.
"Wow." Was all I could think. Kate got onto my bed, and pulled the covers over her. I got in on the other side, and turned the alarm off.
Kate's POV
Humphrey's house was so beautiful, it was two stories, with a balcony on the second floor looking out towards the woods. It was so peaceful in the country. I was glad to be here with my best friend, who is also my crush.
I rolled over, and found him staring at me. Just then thunder crashed and caused me to howl in fear. "That was a big one." Humphrey said chuckling at my yell. "H-Humph?" I asked a little nervous. "Yeah?" He responded. "Can we… ya know… maybe… cuddle?" I asked, extremely nervous that he would think my request is weird. "Yeah sure. Come over here." He said with his arm outstretched. I crawled over, and he put his arm around my shoulder as I pressed up against his side.
Humphrey's POV
"HOLY. SHIT. Kate wants to cuddle with me?" I thought as she pressed herself against me. My mind was racing. "Does she like me? Is this a sign I should make a move? The fuck do I do?"
Just then Kate leaned close to me and pecked me on the cheek. I felt my cheeks suddenly set ablaze. "Thanks Humph." She said, but it was too dark to see if she was smiling.
3rd person POV
Humphrey rolled over, so now he was in the "spooning" position with Kate. He put one of his arms under her head and the other on her stomach.
When Kate felt this she pressed against him, so his chest was on her back. "Night Kate." Humphrey said with excitement in his voice. "Night Humph." Kate said also with some excitement in her voice. And the two fell asleep, madly in love with one another.
Humphrey's POV
I opened my eyes to see Kate still asleep, in my arms. I glanced at the alarm clock on my mahogany dresser, and it read 8:47. "I'm gonna go make her some breakfast in bed." I thought to myself.
I walked downstairs, thinking about the night before. "She wanted to cuddle, does she like me? I have to find out. That does it, I'm going to ask her out tonight.
I looked at my phone. Saturday September fourteenth. "Who the fuck thought it was a good idea to start school on a friday?" I asked myself randomly. I began cooking some breakfast. Eggs bacon and toast. I then poured her some orange juice. I brought it to my room and put it on my bedside table. I went down and got mine as well, and sat next to Kate as she began to stir.
"Morning sleepy." I said in a soothing tone. "Hey." Kate said groggily. She inhaled deeply through her nose. "Is that for me?" She asked, pointing to the plate beside her. "Sure is." I said chuckling a little. "Thanks, it smells so good." Kate said taking the plate into her lap. She still had just the shirt and panties on, and I couldn't help but take a peek.
Kate and I were finally done eating when I got a phone call.
"Let's get ready to rumble!" My phone played. "Sweet ringtone. Is that A Warrior's call by Volbeat?" Kate asked."Hell yeah." I said answering it.
"Hello?"
"Sup Humphrey?"
"Hey Shakey."
"You got anything going on tonight?"
"No, just hanging out with Kate."
"My dad just got me a RZR 4 1000 EPS!"
"Nice, I'll bring out what I've been building. Wanna meet by the silt bowl?"
"Yeah, sounds good. We can race up hell mountain."
"Ok, see you at three?"
"Ok, see you then." Shakey said and hung up.
"Who was that?" Kate said standing up. "Oh it was Shakey, he got a new RZR."
"Wow a Polaris RZR?" Kate said excited. "Yeah, but it won't hold a candle to what I've been building." I said smugly. "What do you have?" She asked. "All in due time Kate." I joked. "Ok, I can't wait to see it." She replied.
I took our plates down to the kitchen, and Kate got in the shower.
Kate's POV
I got undressed in the bathroom, and jumped in the shower, while thinking about last night.
"We actually cuddled!" My mind screamed. "But does he like me? I don't know. Well anyway, I have to make my move tonight, maybe after we get back from the woods."
I noticed myself getting a little wet. "What's the harm?" I thought, pushing a finger into myself, using my other hand to cup my breast. I let out a few soft moans, and sprayed my juices all over my legs and the shower.
I washed it out, washed up and got out of the shower.
Humphrey's POV
Kate had just gotten out of the shower, and walked into my room to change. I stepped into the bathroom, and started to get undressed. I jumped in the shower and turned the water on.
"Huh, her shampoo smells weird." I said out loud. "But I like it." I thought.
When I was finally out of the shower, I dried off and went I've to my room, knocking on the door. "All clear?" I yelled through the door. No answer. So I walked in, and got on a pair of shorts, and a Five Finger Death Punch shirt.
I walked downstairs, and saw Kate on the couch, playing Call of Duty MWR. She was on her account, and she had a headset on. "Haha, I have an idea." I thought. I walked up behind Kate, and grabbed her shoulders. "Aiiiiiiii!" Kate screamed in a high pitched voice.
"Gotcha!" I said laughing uncontrollably. "Fucker!" She yelled slapping me jokingly on the arm.
"So what do you want to do?" Kate asked. "I don't know, you wanna go swimming? I mean it's abnormally warm today, for September at least." Kate said. "Yeah, sounds good." I responded. "I kinda figured we'd use the pool, so I brought my bikini." Kate said. "Good, now we don't have to run to your house." I teased. "Oh I also have a surprise!" I said cheerfully, running up the stairs. I grabbed my swim shorts, and threw them on, taking off my shirt, revealing my eight pack.
I walked into the pool area, and opened a door in back that lead to its own room with a huge hot tub. I changed the lights to blue, my favorite color, and played Still Counting, by Volbeat. I walked out, and saw Kate standing there, in her vermilion red bikini. My mind went into overdrive.
"Holy. Fuck. So. Damn. Hot." Were the only thoughts in my mind. "You like my new bikini?" She asked, noticing me staring. I blushed like mad. "Yeah, it's really cute on you, I matches perfectly with you." Now it was Kate's turn to blush. "So what was the suprise?" She asked, changing the subject.
"See for yourself." I said, opening the door to the hot tub. "Wow." Was all she could muster. "And watch this." I said, pressing a button on the remote, and Still Counting started playing. "That's fucking awesome!" Kate said. "Well go on, get in." I said, jumping in the hot tub. Kate got in as well.
Kate's POV
"He looks sooooooo good with no shirt. He's the only guy I've ever seen with an eight pack. I want to jump his bone right now, but no. I have to be patient.
"When did you put this in?" I asked curiously. "I started last month, I was gonna show you when it was done, and it happened to line up perfectly, I finished it on Thursday." Humphrey said.
3rd person POV
The two wolves talked in the hot tub for hours, listening to music, and talking about their friends, family, and how they were going to catch up on school.
Time skip 3 hours:
Humphrey's POV
"Kate, it's almost two." I said. "Ok, we better get out and dried off." She responded. I jumped out, and grabbed our towels. Kate hopped out, jiggling a bit in front of me when her feet hit the ground. "She still looks amazing." I thought, as we dried off. I went upstairs and got in the shower, and Kate went to the other bathroom to shower. We were both out, and I checked the clock, it was 2:33.
"Kate, I'll show you what I've been building for the past year and a half, it's finally done. I walked out the door into the garage, and pulled a tarp off of a dune buggy with a 1914 Volkswagen engine, and 33" bloggers on the back, and 21 inch farm special tires. It was painted blue, with stainless steel body, inside the bars. "Holy shit." Kate managed to say. "Yup, it's small, but has three times the power of the biggest baddest RZR on the market." I said.
I got in, and hooked up my phone to the bluetooth speaker, and began playing The Pride, by Five Finger Death Punch.
I put on the five point harness and motioned for Kate to get in. She got in, but stopped when she tried to put on her harness. "How the hell does this work?" She asked. "It's easy, watch." I said. I then fastened it, and opened the garage door. I put it in first and drove out of the garage, closing it behind me.
I went down a dirt road, and hit second gear, and within ten seconds, shifted into third. I asked Kate as I was driving, "Wanna take the fun way?" "Hell yeah!" She yelled back. I punched it, and turned off the road on to a road with a huge hill climb at the end. I hit the hill in third, and downshifted, pulling over the hill like it was nothing. We want down another trail, seeing Shakey, Salty, Mooch, and Allie, Shakey's girlfriend.
"What the hell is this contraption?" Shakey asked. "It's a VW dune buggy, and it's gonna run circles around that RZR." I said with a chuckle.
"Oh yeah?" Shakey replied. "I'm sure of it." I said.
"Then put your money where your mouth is, let's race to Hell Mountain and back." Shakey said. "How about we go up it too?" "No one's ever made it up without breaking something." Shakey said, worried. "Fine, I'll go up and down it. You can just go to the bottom and turn around." I suggested. "Ok, sounds good, my RZR will eat you up anyway.
"Alright, let's go." I said, getting in the buggy, and playing Over and Under it, by Five Finger Death Punch.
Kate jumped out, and flagged for us, dropping both her arms as we took off. I was in first gear, and I left Shakey in the dust, I shifted to second, and was gone. I hit Hell Mountain, and downshifted into first, and starting to crawl of the huge rocks. I made it to the top in under thirty seconds, and back down in under fifteen. I filmed the whole thing with a gopro on the dash of the buggy. As I started my way back, I shifted into third gear, and passed Shakey, who hadn't made it to the mountain yet, at 130 miles per hour, on a dirt road.
I arrived back at the silt bowl, and got out and said, "I win!" "Where's Shakey?" Mooch asked. "Last time I saw him was while I was coming back from Hell Mountain, and he was still heading to it, and I passed him at 130 mph.
"No way." Salty said. "Yup, I went up and down Hell Mountain too. I said. "Nope, you just reached fake." Mooch said. "See for yourself." I said, opening my phone to the gopro app, and showing them the video. "Well shit." Mooch said, as Shakey pulled up in his RZR.
"You couldn't have went up Hell Mountain that fast." Shakey said. "Watch me." I said handing him my phone.
"Fuck me. What the fuck is that thing?" Shakey aksed. "Sorry, family secret, my dad taught me how to build them. "How fast were you going when you passed me?" He asked. "Look on the video." I pointed out. "130 fucking miles per hour. How the shit?" Shakey asked, confused. "Magic." Was all I said.
"Well, we gotta get going." I said, as we got into the buggy. We zoomed back to my house, and parked in the garage.
"You were amazing, that was so cool!" Kate exclaimed. "Yeah, that buggy works amazingly." I said turning off the lights in the garage, making it pitch black.
Just then, someone kissed me on the lips.
