Alpha and Omega: The Accepted
Sirius' POV
The party turned out to be very similar from the previous day's gathering. More wolves had arrived over the night and were now unnoticeable in the gathering crowd. The only recongizable wolves were the four who remained away from the farse, talking amongst themselves. Drake and I made our way to them, seeing Glacier cast a glance at my companion as we approached.
Drake didn't seem to notice however, due to his eyes being on me as we walked. He seemed almost too infatuated with me as we approached our friends, but I sure did. But my attention was quickly drawn to the notable absence of the third brother, Sylus and the ever so attractive David. It brought up some questions in my head but I didn't bring it up, I had a feeling it would irritate Lou as any subject considering his "boyfriend" did.
"Hey guys!" Lucas called out as we approached, "What have you been doing all day?!"
"Making out" Drake answered, quickly recieving a quick and hard punch to the shoulder.
"We've been looking for Conrad and Sammy, have you guys seen them?" I asked, with a slight tad of hope.
With a quick exchange of looks, they all shook their heads and worsened my fears. No one has seen either of them and our parents are here to make matters worse. Luckily, so far to my knowledge, only three of our parents were here. Armstrong and the others were no where to be seen and we could probably ditch three Alphas in this huge crowed easily.
We just had to find the others before they find them.
"Where's Sylus?" Drake asked, tilting his head at the absence of one of the three siblings.
"H-he went on a walk with David!" Glacier answered eagerly, then blushing and looking away.
Once again, David didn't notice it but the rest of us sure did, with exchanging glances, we all decided to keep it quiet and move on with our conversation.
"He didn't take you, Lou?" I asked, finding it strangely out of character that David would go anywhere without Lou ever since their little encounter.
"No, I guess he just needed some alone time" Lou remarked, almost as if he didn't care.
With one more glance around the party, I laid down and decided that it was best to just wait for them here. I was tired of looking for Conrad and Sammy all over the place and now David and Sylus were gone to? It was probably just better to stay here and wait for them to come back. They had to get here eventually.
Sammy's POV
I couldn't believe what was in front of my eyes. The kids were STILL in the lake! Upon seeing it, I tried to get all of the pups out of the lake without going in there but they just ignored me and disrespected me in front of Conrad, which he laughed about.
"Little twerps" I growled, watching them play around in the water, laughing and giggling.
"I doubt they're that bad, why don't you just go in there and get them?" Conrad asked, facing towards the lake.
I sighed, I really didn't want to because I hated getting wet and it would take me forever to try and round up all of the pups and keep them out of the water. I would need Conrad's help and have him hold the pups while I gathered them up. Problem was, I was too prideful and I convinced myself long ago that I didn't need his help in this.
"I really don't want to..." I sighed, looking at all of the pups that I had a feeling I would be collecting soon.
"Well you need a bath anyway, might as well get the pups while you're at it" Conrad suggested, smirking.
I growled and stepped into the lake, running after the pups as fast as I could. But, with the water hindering my speed, I had no chance because the pups were lighter than me and could swim much faster than me. Let alone, the fact that there were a lot more of them than I was able to keep track of.
As I kept attempting to catch the pups, I could hear Conrad laughing at my misfortune. The pups kept splashing me and swimming in circles around me while I choked on water. I growled at all of them and was about to yell at them when I noticed Conrad taking off his scarf.
It was unnatural seeing him without it on, it was like seeing him naked. It was weird because I didn't see him as a dog anymore, he looked like a wolf and with my now knowing him, I didn't feel a sudden hatred towards him ever since we left the den. When did I start actually enjoying his company?
Then, when he started moving into the lake, everything seemed to slow down. I saw his paws slowly dissapear into the water and then he dipped his entire body under the water and came back up just as fast. Slowly, he began moving his paws through his fur, getting out the knots and tangles that were in it. For some reason, my eyes followed his paws, watching them slowly as they traced over his body.
"Enjoying the show, Sammy?"
I shook my head to regain my senses when I turned around and saw that one of the pups, Jimmy, was stareing at me, then looking at Conrad. "You were ogling him" He said.
"I was not!" I growled, looking around at the pup.
"You weren't what?" Conrad asked, tilting his head as he yelled back at us.
That enhanced hearing of his was amazing. Due to his loss of sight, his hearing and smell were amazingly strong. Which, in this case, was a real pain in the ass.
"I wasn't splashing him!" I responded, coming up with an excuse as I help a paw around Jimmy's muzzle to quiet him and keep him from telling Conrad what I was actually doing, although I could hardly believe it either.
"Oh, Sammy, stop being mean to the pups!" Conrad ordered before going back to washing his body as I looked at Jimmy, "You. Don't say anything!"
Respond to my whisper, he just shook his head and began swimming away, going to join his friends as they all began to go to the shore. I sighed and looked at Conrad, seeing him washing his body again. This time, I didn't ogle him or even feel a need to anymore, it was just that sudden moment. I slowly swam past him and onto shore, the whole time thinking and asking myself as to why I would be ogling the dog. I wasn't gay and I have never been attracted to males before.
But I have been acting weird around him. Not killing him for being a dog almost imediately was a little odd for me. Now, as I stood here, I felt no hostility towards him what so ever for his species, it was just the way he talked to me and occasionally picked on be that caused arguments. I felt oddly comfortable around him. Maybe I was just starting to like him as a friend, just because I was staring at his body doesn't mean I like him!
"Hey! Sammy!"
Getting knocked from my thoughts, I turned around and saw Sammy sitting there, he had recently got out of the water and had waited for me to come back to the world of the living.
"You okay?" He asked, tilting his head "It looked like you didn't hear me for a while there"
O-oh, no I'm fine! Really!" I replied, looking around us for Jimmy to make sure he wouldn't say anything in the future, when I realized that all of the pups were gone, again. "Where did the pups go?"
Conrad shook off all the remaining water from his sleek coat, letting it spray everywhere, including onto me before answering. "They went back to their cave, they got all tuckered out and went to go take a nap"
I nodded, shaking off the water that transfered from him to me, smirking as some of it returned to it's previous owner and he growled slightly as well. Deciding we should go back to the party, I led Conrad by my tail, to which he responded by saying I still tasted like crap and that started a whole other argument. But, I liked it. I liked being able to joke around with Conrad and actually have what seemed like a friendship with this dog. However, it didn't make me feel good, knowing what humans and their pets have done to me in my past, but with Conrad it felt different. It felt amazing having him around. Which worried me a lot.
Was I starting to enjoy being around him?! A dog?!
Sylus's POV
"David! Wait up!"
The wolf looked back at me as we exited the crowd, still walking away slowly but just enough for me to catch up to him and trot comfortably by his side. I stayed quiet for a while, just wanting to be there for him in his obviously sad time and he seemed to lighten up slightly but not much. We walked quite a distance away from the party when I finally started.
"So, David, want to tell me whats wrong?" I asked in a calm tone, my eyes on him.
He stared at the ground as he walked, his ears down against his skull and his tail dropping down, looking lifeless compared to the way it usually was always wagging. His walk was sloppy too, almost as if he had almost no control over his limbs.
"I-Its nothing, you should go back with the others" He replied, avoiding my gaze.
I shook my head in response, offering him a friendly and encouraging smie to try and lighten the mood.
"I'm good, I like walking with you, but if somethings troubling you, you should tell me" I insisted, getting closer to him as we walked "Its not good to keep things bottled in"
He still didn't look at me, but he seemed to be deep into thought as we continued walking. The speed of his trot slowed slighty, telling me he was thinking about something intensely.
"Its Lou" He answered, sadly.
"What about him?"
"He's...not in love with me..." He answered, as if he had just come to a conclusion.
"Of course not, he just met you not long ago" I replied, still trying to get him to look at me.
He whined more, stopping his walking and sitting down before folding his paws one over the other. He was thinking hard about something and he looked immensly sad for someone of his usual demeanour. Lou had such a tremendous effect on David's well being that it was frightening.
"But...I'm in love with him! It's not fair!" David growled, his claws then digging into the ground. "Do you have any idea what it feels like to love someone and not have them love you back?! It hurts! Then he goes and starts talking to other wolves and letting them touch him, its infuriating"
I watched him, wondering how he felt. I couldn't understand what he could possibly be feeling. I decided to keep quiet and let him tell me what was wrong and try to consul him as much as I could.
"Sylus, you know Lou...has he ever given a hint to liking me?" He asked, finally looking up at me.
"I haven't known him much longer than you" I answered, sighing "But I haven't see any hints that he likes you, I'm sorry"
He sighed, his hopefulness gone. I knew that I had to help him. but I had no idea what to do. Never have I experienced something like this, something like what David was experiencing with Lou.
"Maybe...I can help you...somehow" I suggested, looking away and scratching the back of my head.
All of a sudden, he jumped up and was all of a sudden back to his original self. His original happy self. For some reason, I have a feeling that he was trying to get me to help him.
"Thank you, Sylus! So if you were me, what would you do?" He asked, his tail all of a sudden up and wagging.
I sighed, scratching the back of my head again and then beginning to pace around and trying to figure out what to do in this kind of situation. Knowing that David loved Lou but not knowing Lou's feelings for David was a hindering factor.
"Well, you're obviously jealous of him being with Oliver, why don't you do the same?" I suggested, holding a paw on my chin.
"Who said I was jealous of him and Oliver?!" He yelled, a slight growl coming from his throat and then it all of a sudden stopped as his eyes went wide, "Wait, he's with Oliver?! Who said that?! Did he say it after I left?!"
I rolled my eyes and let an eyebrow raise, letting him prove my point. I believe that even he realized it when all of a sudden he blushed and stood up, looking away in embarrasment.
"Well how do you suggest we get him to be jealous?" David asked, his ears up and perked to listen to my further suggestions.
"Thats the thing, I don't know. But if Lou doesn't have that strong of feelings for you then this won't work, if anything, it will make the situation worse" I added.
"Its a risk I'm willing to take, for Lou" He answered and then smirking with his tail swaying back and forth, giving an almost evil smile "And I think I have an idea on how to make him jealous"
Lou's POV
David.
Oliver.
Two males who both liked me. How did I ever get into this situation?! What would my mom and dad say if they saw me now? With David at my heels or with Oliver's tail on mine? When I talked to Oliver, I didn't think of him as I first did when I met David. I was weirded out at that point. But now, I acted as if it were a normal occurence, due to the fact that David did it so much.
When he casually put his tail onto mine and touched me, for some reason, I didn't mind it. I didn't even mind it when David tried to touch me. He had done it so many times that it felt okay. I smiled when he told his jokes, when he punched me casually on the shoulder and when he placed his tail on mine over and over again.
I knew he was flirting with me. But he was attractive, even though I wasn't attracted to males I considered him very attractive in general. To any other wolf, I'm sure he would get their attention and probably have them swooning over him in a couple of seconds.
"Lou!" Marcus yelled, getting my attention as I jumped up and out of my thoughts of David and Oliver.
"I-I'm sorry?"
"Oliver, you were talking about Oliver for us when you suddenly started drifting off" Lucas replied, finishing for his brother as Marcus nodded.
"Just who is this "Oliver" anyway?" Sirius asked, laying down next to Drake as the bigger wolf kept trying to put his paw around Sirius' waist.
"This really attractive guy that came up to Lou and started flirting!" Marcus answered, way before I was able to.
"Another one?!" Sirius asked, completely astonished, "How come you get all of the guys coming after you?"
Drake growled at this and started whispering to Sirius, sounding quite angry from his comment. However, Sirius just blew him off and started asking for Oliver's appearance. As I gave him a brief description, prominent muscles, black fur, with grey patches across his lower muzzle as well as his paws and piercing silver eyes, I noticed Sirius' tail wag and then I noticed a slight growl coming from Drake out of jealousy.
"He's "okay" it's not like he's an Adonis or anything" I replied, rolling my eyes and looking at Glacier for support.
"Well he is pretty handsome" She responded, then turning to Sirius as to emphasize the point.
"I want to see him!" Sirius responded, whimpering slightly and getting another growl from Drake.
I shook my head, feeling pressured as I recieved questions from Sirius and the others about Oliver. However, the more and more that I talked about the black furred wolf, the more and more I missed talking to the russet furred wolf whom I came to get annoyed by all the time. I knew I didn't want to have his jealous attitude around me when I came back to the group so I acted like I didn't care about his opinion. But, for some reason, I felt like I wanted to talk to him the most about it right now.
My hopes were answered when Glacier called out and pointed behind me, to where we could all see David and Sylus coming up behind us, walking together. I got up to greet him when all of a sudden I realized something. Upon closer inspection, I saw that they were literally walking together. Side by side, with their pelts touching. I found it a little weird but I shook my head and welcomed them back anyway.
"H-hey guys!" I said, smiling as I welcomed them back and ignoring the fact that they were touching,"W-where did you guys go?"
"No where really" Sylus answered, walking past me with David, who didn't look at me as he walked by and laid down next to the others but right next to Sylus, their pelts still touching.
I wasn't the only one who noticed as everyone else's eyes were on them before looking between themselves. But no one else wanted to say anything, that is, until David decided to speak up.
"Soooooooo guys, whats up?" He asked, his tail wagging behind him.
"Nothing much, whats up with you, David?" Lucas asked, tilting his eyebrow at the bigger wolf and then his brother.
David and Sylus then looked at each other and smiled. I had a feeling that I wasn't going to like what they were about to say. It was when David's tail went over Sylus' that I had to hold back a growl from escaping my throat. It wasn't intended but the almost growl made me wonder what was wrong with me.
"Well uh, I kinda have something to tell you Lucas, Marcus" Sylus, looking at both of them and urging them to follow them.
The twins looked at each other and slowly got up before following their younger brother away from us and into a wooded area. Obviously discussing something that they didn't want us to hear. However, as they walked away, David smiled and watched Sylus walking away, his eyes glued on his rear as he checked him out. I blushed as he looked at me before checking out the brother.
"David, is there something YOU want to tell us?" Glacier asked, tilting her head.
He smiled turned back around, taking his eyes off of my friend's rear before turning to Glacier as we heard a loud yell from the forest, sounding like one from Marcus out of disbelief. I had a feeling about what he was going to say.
"Oh ummmm I'm kinda...dating Sylus now..." He answered, scratching behind his head.
I felt Sirius and Drake look at me with wide eyes and with looks of concern and I felt a sudden twinge in my feelings. It felt like I was just punched. I tried to hide it as much as I could, but with everything happening I found it hard to control as I looked down my paws and saw them shaking slightly.
"You? And Sylus?!" Glacier asked, looking past the wolf in front of her and into the woods "When?!"
"A few minutes ago, please don't spread the word, Sylus isn't that comfortable dating a guy yet" David answered, not once looking at me to see how I felt.
I felt incredibly empty for some reason. Knowing that David wasn't going to be around my waist as I walked everywhere. "He must be joking, right?!" I kept thing in my head, not being able to imagine him and Sylus doing what he and I were always doing. All of these images of him and the annoying things he did suddenly floated into my head as they continued their conversation.
"B-but how?!" Sirius asked, curious himself.
"He walked out into the forest with me and I found him cute since I first saw him" David answered, then turning to me "I'm sorry Louis but I don't want to go after someone who isn't ever going to date a male. I'm sorry for being such nuisance to you"
I stared at him. He looked so serious, way different from his usual joyfully annoying manner. I didn't like it at all. His eyes were on me and even though he stopped looking at me as his "soul-mate" they still showed his kindness and it hurt.
"I-its alright' I answered, looking back at him.
Without another word, he turned back to Glacier, Sirius and Drake as he continued talking to them. My ears then perked up at the sounds of the three brothers approaching and my eyes landed on Sylus as we walked up and laid down next to David. It was then that David licked his cheek and caused a blush to appear on that very cheek as well as his other before pressing his head under David's and closing his eyes resting into the russet furred wolf's muscular chest.
Needing to sit down, I walked slowly behind Sirius and Drake and away from David's gaze as I needed time to think. It was a good thing wasn't it? Now I can go on with this party and not have him as my personal shadow. Every morning, I won't have to worry about waking up with his paws around me in some creepy hug or something. I was scot free! No more David! It was the thing that I was hoping for since the first time we met! Yet, I didn't want to be away from David. I missed him.
Looking back at the new couple, I felt a little anger and jealousy at Sylus. Seeing him blush and smile as he recieved David's attention made me a little hot tempered. But I felt like a jerk, feeling like this after blowing off that wolf for so long. I growled lightly before walking off, I needed to get away from them and I needed to get my mind off of them. I was so irritated that when I passed Conrad and Sammy, along with the pups as they made their way towards the group, I didn't say anything. I knew I was going to regret this, but, I felt that I needed to talk to someone else and, at the moment, I only had one wolf in mind.
