I woke up, confused about where I was, but the familiar red walls told me that I was home. I remembered the events that happened at the carnival. The thing that stood out the most in my memories was that Laughing Jack said he loved me and he actually kissed me too. I groaned, not sure what to think about that. I got out of bed and saw that the cut on my leg had been bandaged up. I was also only in my shirt.
"Another pair of pants gone. Good thing I have others."
I went to my dresser and decided that I wanted to wear something comfortable. I pulled out a pair of sweatpants, a cute red t-shirt with a kitty on it and a pair of fluffy socks. I changed and then headed downstairs. As I approached the kitchen, I heard yelling and glass breaking. It sounded like a fight. I angled my ears so I could get a clearer listen on who was fighting. I felt my stomach drop when I made out the voices to be Jeff and Laughing Jack.
"Oh no! Did Jeff find out about Laughing Jack kissing me?"
I made my way over to the door, but was almost knocked down when Toby and Clocky ran out. Clocky saw me and came over.
"I'm sorry, but it's getting crazy in there. We nearly got hit with glasses. Jeff is going nuts because of something LJ did. I wouldn't go in there for the time being."
I nodded. 'Thanks for telling me."
Clocky nodded before she and Toby left. The fight seemed to get worse as I listened. I wanted to listen to Clocky, but I needed to stop the boys before they hurt each other...or worse. I pressed my ear against the door and listened for a bit.
"YOU KISSED HER!? YOU FUCKING KISSED MY GIRLFRIEND!? I OUGHTA SHOVE MY KNIFE UP YOUR ASS FOR DOING SUCH A THING!"
"I JUST THOUGHT SHE DESERVED TO KNOW HOW I FELT SINCE YOU TOOK HER BEFORE I HAD A CHANCE!"
Laughing Jack really does care about me...poor guy. I felt bad, but I would have to hold in my feelings until the fighting stopped. I opened the door and walked in. The entire kitchen looked terrible. Laughing Jack and Jeff were in the middle and looked terrible too. They were bleeding from several wounds on their bodies. Jeff grabbed a cup and threw it at Laughing Jack, but he ducked in time. The glass kept going and it was too fast for me to stop. It shattered near me and a couple shards flew in my direction, slicing my ear and cheek. I yelped in pain, which got the boys attention.
"Lupin! Are you alright?"
I looked up to see Laughing Jack in front of me. I was about to say something, but Jeff came over and shoved Laughing Jack.
"She'd be alright if you hadn't ducked."
"I wouldn't have had to duck if you didn't throw the cup at me."
"Well, you ki-"
"ENOUGH! BOTH OF YOU!"
Both boys looked at me, shocked at my outburst. They also looked a little scared. It was from my eyes, which were glowing red. I sighed before looking at each one of the boys. I wanted to make sure they were paying attention.
"Jeff, Laughing Jack did kiss me, but it was one kiss and I didn't kiss back. Laughing Jack, I'm sorry about what is happening and I understand that you love me too, but you guys need to figure out a way to solve this issue. You can't fight over me. So, until you two figure out a way to discuss this without killing each other or hurting someone, neither of you can speak to me. Now, if you'll excuse me, I have to go see EJ. These cuts hurt."
Jeff and Laughing Jack looked at me in disbelief. I didn't like the decision, but I felt like it was the only one that I could make. I turned away and walked out of the kitchen. Clocky and Toby were waiting right outside the door. Clocky looked worried when she saw the nick in my ear and the cut in my cheek, but I gave her a reassuring smile. She and Toby walked with me to EJ's and I was thankful for the company. I kind of felt bad after telling Jeff and Laughing Jack that they couldn't talk to me. Why do things have to be so complicated?
"Slendy? Are you in?"
"Yes. Come in, child."
A few days had passed since the fight in the kitchen and I knew it was killing the guys not talking to me. I saw the looks in their eyes. I killed me and I needed to get out of the mansion, at least for a little while. I remembered that my parents used to take me to this market that was for supernatural creatures only. Humans didn't know about it. There was all kinds of cool things to buy and I thought that it would be a great place to take Olivia. She was a fledgling witch after all and it would be a great experience for her. Sally could go too, since she was a ghost. I stepped up to Slendy's desk, smiling politely.
"I was wondering if I could take Sally with me to the Mystic Market. She'd fit right in and I would look after her. I'm bringing Olivia with me as well."
Slendy looked curious. "What is the Mystic Market?"
"It's like a flea market, but for supernatural creatures."
"I suppose she could go with you. You've been doing well with Olivia, so I know you are responsible. It would also be good for Sally to get out for a bit. She may go with you, but keep your eye on her. I don't want her getting lost."
"I promise I'll watch her. Thank you, Slendy."
"Have fun at the market."
"You two have to hold onto me while we're here. It's a big place and there are a lot of people. I don't want either of you to get lost. Got it?"
"Got it, Lupin."
Both girls looked at me with their green eyes, big smiles on their faces. They looked cute, especially Olivia. She was wearing my purple cloak from when I was a fledgling witch. It was a custom thing for fledgling witches to wear a cloak. I smiled at her as we stepped away from the portal and into the market.
"Lupin! Look at these teddy bears! They're changing colors!"
"Yeah. It's an enchantment. Do you want one?"
"Yes!"
"Can I have one too?"
I looked at Sally and Olivia and laughed. They were looking at me with begging eyes. I laughed again and handed the vendor six gold pieces. He smiled and gave each girl a bear. They hugged the bears tight and smiled back. I gestured for them to follow and the held onto my jacket as we walked away. We had been at the market for a while and had a little space left on our cart.
"Alright. We can go to a few more vendors and then we have to leave. Which ones do you want to go to?"
Sally and Olivia looked around, looking for their next vendor. It took a bit before Olivia pointed towards a vendor, jumping in excitement. I saw that the vendor was selling animals of all kinds. A few fledgling witches were there and I guess that they were getting their first familiars. Hmmm...Olivia is about the age where most witches get their first familiar. She may not have her full power, but until then, it would be a great bonding time. I looked at the young witch and smiled.
"I suppose you are old enough for one. Let's go get you your first familiar. It's a big step into becoming a full witch."
Olivia shrieked with excitement and it hurt my ears a little. She smiled in apology as we walked over to the vendor. There were many choices, some were even exotic. I liked looking at the wolf pups and pointed out a few that Olivia may like, but she didn't want a wolf. She didn't even want the traditional cat or owl.
"Olivia. You need to pick one. It's getting late and Slenderman will be upset if we're late getting home."
"I know."
She sounded sad and I knew that she wanted more time to look. Olivia seemed like she was going to leave, but then her eyes went wide. A big smile spread across her face.
"That one! That one! I want the big-eared puppy!"
I looked to see which animal she wanted and saw that she was talking about a young Fennec Fox. It was sleeping, but woke up when it heard Olivia. Its tail started wagging and it stood up against the bars of its cage. It was the cutest thing ever.
"You want the fox?"
"Yes! I really do!"
"Alright. We'll take the fox."
I handed the vendor fifty gold pieces and carefully took the cage. I set it on the cart and made sure it wasn't going to fall. When all was good, I started back towards where we entered. The girls were looking tired then and I was too.
"Come on you two. Let's go home. We had a long day."
Sally looked at me and smiled. "I had fun today. We should come again."
"I think we should come back too."
"We're home!"
Sally ran through the front door, her colored bear in her arms. I laughed at the little girl as I pushed the cart through the door. Clocky came up and looked amazed at the amount of things that were on the cart.
"You sure have a lot of things. The market must have been good."
"It was fantastic. You should come next time."
"Maybe I will. Oh, Jeff and LJ were looking for you. I think they said they had made a decision or something like that."
"Ok. Thanks, Clocky."
I made my way upstairs, the things from the market floating behind me. I thanked myself for learning the levitation spell. I walked up to my room and opened the door. I gasped when I saw the boys sitting on my bed.
"Jeff? Laughing Jack? What are you doing in my room?"
They looked at me, then at each other. Jeff stood up and walked over to me. "Lupin, we thought about what you said and we have come to a decision."
I waited, my tail swaying as I started to get impatient. "Well…"
Laughing Jack stood up and stood next to Jeff. "We have decided...to share you."
My ears went up in surprise. "What?"
"You are going to have two boyfriends now because Jeff and I are going to share you."
What just happened? This wasn't what I was expecting. I looked at the boys in confusion and surprise.
"You're...going to...share me? Will this work?"
Both boys walked over to me and put their arms over my shoulders. They both smiled at me, affectionate, loving smiles.
"Sure it'll work. You'll see."
I couldn't help but smile back. I saw in their eyes that they loved me and that made me feel special. Maybe this could work out after all. I wrapped my arms around my boys and squeezed them in a hug. Then, I kissed both boys on the cheek. That seemed to draw their attention, which gave me a perfect opportunity. I quickly grabbed a handful of ass from each before running from their arms. I stopped in the doorway and smirked.
"Gotcha."
My ears were up triumphantly and my tail was wagging in delight. Jeff and LJ seemed to be glaring at me, but I knew they were only playing. They both took a few steps towards me. Jeff playfully growled.
"You are so going to pay for that, Lupin."
I laughed. "Then you better catch me first."
Both boys lunged forward, making me shriek in delight as I ran down the hall. They ran after me. I booked it for the stairs, nearly running into Slendy. I smiled in apology as I continued for the stairs. I ran down them fast and ran to the living room. Ben was playing video games while the others sat on the couches. I ran to the couch Clocky sat on and jumped into her lap.
"Clocky! Clocky, you gotta help me."
She looked concerned at first, but when she saw that I was smiling, she seemed to get the idea. She laughed as I clung onto her. Toby looked confused. Everyone else seemed confused at first too. Running footsteps approached, making me climb over Toby to hide on the side of the couch. Jeff and LJ entered and I heard Clocky snicker.
"Where is she?"
I covered my mouth, trying to keep myself from laughing. I saw Ben looking at me and I signaled to him to keep quiet. He just smirked at me and made kissy faces. I flipped him off and he pretended to be offended. I risked the chance of being caught and peeked over the edge of the couch. I kept my ears flat. I was like one of those peeking cats. I saw Jeff and LJ looking for me. They looked determined to find me. I snickered, but then shrieked when I saw LJ point at me.
"There she is! Get her!"
I ran from my hiding spot, hoping to get away. Jeff was quicker though. When I was just about to jump over the other couch, he grabbed me by my shirt. I slipped and landed in EJ's lap. I tried to grab a hold of his sweater, but he seemed to know what Jeff and LJ were planning and shoved me off into Jeff's arms. I growled at him as Jeff slung me over his shoulder. EJ just shrugged. Jeff carried me out of the room. I heard Ben whistle and everyone else laugh. I called out for help, but no one was coming. I playfully hit Jeff in the face with my tail. Despite the hair, Jeff bit the base, making me yelp. He then slapped my ass, making me yip.
"That's from earlier."
I whined and realized that I was beat. I went limp and looked at LJ. He grinned at me. My ears went back and I whined a little when Jeff walked into my room. He threw me onto my bed, smirking. LJ locked my door and walked over to stand next to Jeff. They were both grinning at me and I knew I was in for it. I whined and that seemed to turn them on. Jeff took his sweater and shirt off and climbed onto the bed. He climbed on top of me, pinning me down. I smiled apologetically, but he just shook his head.
"It's gonna take a lot more than a smile to make up for what you did earlier. You need to be taught a lesson."
I gulped and looked behind Jeff to see LJ. He had his top off and was grinning at me. I gulped again and whined. What have I gotten myself into?
