"I really hope this rain let's up." Grumbling I pulled off my helmet and climbed off my bike. Shaking my head, I pulled my bike off to the side of the drive way. Reaching into my saddle bag and pulled out cover for my bike and placed it over it while leaving my helmet underneath. Looking around I smiled slightly at the Wolf house, I was supposed to be working on a project with Clawdeen but why she wanted me to come over while it was raining was beyond me.
Sighing I made my way to the door and knocked. "Hey, Clawdeen it's, me, can you let me in its pouring out here."
The door didn't open right away but I was expecting that, what I wasn't expecting was the fact there was no barking… Like what so ever. Normally whenever I came over the youngest Wolf kids would always go crazy. Today however? Nothing what so ever. Frowning I knocked again. "Come on its raining like crazy."
Slowly the door opened revealing my worst nightmare.
Howleen.
"Oh… uh Hey Howleen… Umm... Where is Clawdeen? Or Clawd? Or your parents and other siblings for that matter." I asked looking into the house. Listening out I heard nothing coming from the house, so I am guessing she was home alone… Or everyone was being really quiet for the time being.
"They aren't right here right now, they all went out to the boovies." Howleen raised an eyebrow. "They won't be back for a little while."
"Oh, that's weird I got a text from Clawdeen telling me to come over." Pulling my cellphone out my pocket and looked over the times. "Weird that she would go to a movie when she- "
"Don't worry about that, she may have gotten her times mixed up." Howleen shrugged with a smile. "Why don't you just come on in and wait."
Frowning I shook my head to get some of the water out, but also to say no. "Sorry but I'll just go back home. I'm not comfortable with coming in while your parents are away." Turning around I tried to leave but stopped as Howleen grabbed my jacket and tugged it.
"Come on D, it's pouring out there. Listen just come in and dry off. They all should be home in an hour at least." Howleen said pulling me toward the door. "If it makes you feel better I'll text them and let them know what's going on."
Sighing I shook my head and looked around. "Fine… But you text them right away, and until we hear back from them I'm waiting right here."
Howleen grinned and nodded as she quickly pulled out her phone and sent out a text and placed her phone back into her pocket before vanishing back into the house. Raising an eyebrow, I crossed my arms and looked around. I guess I never really described the Wolf house before, it was a pretty big place but with a lot of kids it would have to be. It wasn't very tall maybe two stories but dang this place was wide, and to make things easier there was a wraparound porch and a few chairs. Shrugging I sat down on one of the chairs and watched the rain as I waited to hear back from Howleen's parents.
"Hey D here." Coming back from the house the teen werewolf held up a rather large towel in one hand a cup of steaming liquid in the other, handing me the towel first and then she handed me the mug after I finished getting some of the water off my body. "It's hot chocolate, I hope you like it."
Smiling slightly, I took the cup and slowly sipped at it before something caught my attention. "Hey how did, you make this hot chocolate so fast?" I asked with a raised eyebrow.
"Oh, I had made a whole pot full before you came over, I was planning on watching the rain." Shrugging Howleen found a spare chair and pulled it up and sat next to me. "I figured that since it was wet you could use something to warm you up."
Blinking I thought over it for a minute before shrugging, who was I to question this. "Well thank you, it hits the spot." Continuing to sip at the hot chocolate I watched the rain pour on down, I don't know why but watching the rain always had a calming effect on me. I have no idea why it just did. Watching the rain now it reminded me of when I lived in New York, me and my dad would sit on the fire escape and drink hot chocolate or coffee and just watch the water fall down onto the city.
"It's beautiful, isn't it?"
"Hm?" Turning to face Howleen I stared at her for a moment, when did she get so close, slowly leaning to the other side I sipped some more of the hot chocolate she had made.
"The rain, I love watching it." Howleen clarified for me as she moved closer. "I could just watch it for hours."
"Ah, right. It is." I said scooting my chair back somewhat, okay this moment it was nice but now it was starting to get a little weird, hopefully her parents would be getting home soon enough because this was getting awkward.
Buzz, Buzz, Buzz
Reaching into her pocket Howleen pulled out her phone. "Hey, my parents, said it was okay for you to come on in." The pink haired werewolf said as she stood to her feet.
"Um… I still- "
"D, relax my parents are alright with it, so come on in. It won't kill yah." Howleen said looking at me with a weird look in her eye.
Frowning I sighed and nodded, I still didn't like this but ever since I came to New Salem and Monster High I have found that these girls are really…really, bossy and not listening to them usually led to something bad for someone's health, mainly mine…. So yeah, I went inside despite how uncomfortable I was. Standing up I followed Howleen into the house, carrying both the mug of hot chocolate and the towel she brought me and headed for the living room.
Taking the towel from me Howleen disappeared further into the house leaving me alone for a couple minutes.
Looking around I quickly pulled out my phone and quickly sent a text to Clawdeen and told her to hurry up, I'm not exactly sure what Howleen was doing but I knew I wasn't going to like it. Well the moment she came back I knew I was right, Howleen was wearing a black tanktop, a miny skirt, her normal black boots, while her hair was done up in a ponytail. Oh crap. I started to stand but was stopped when Howleen slid into the seat right next to me and pulled me down.
"D… I know you said you wanted to wait to date someone but I can't keep waiting forever. I like- "
Standing to my feet I pushed the girl away and frowned. "Howleen I know you do but the thing is I don't like you, not that way. And everything you are doing turns me off. Like seriously, you're a good person Howleen a great person even, but ever since that whole issue with the shadow ghoul's things have been… Weird alright. You have gotten clingy with me, you freaking faced raped me at my own birthday party." I glared at the younger teen and sighed. "But I let it all go because that's what you're supposed to do as a friend."
"But… I…" Howleen started to say her eyes filling with tears.
Sighing I was now feeling like a dick so I placed a hand on her shoulder. "Howleen I like you as a friend, and yes I know you like me more than that but, why do you like me more than that? Yeah, I was nice to you because you shouldn't be treated like an annoyance just because your someone's little sister. I saw you as your own person, but you don't see me as me, you only have seen me as the friend of your older brother, the guy that was nice to you. Howleen I'm a dick to most people and that is on a good day. I am a pain in the ass and a jerk, trust me I am not the guy for you."
Sniffing Howleen bit her lip and looked down.
Taking a deep breath, I took off my jacket and placed it around her shoulders. "Howleen I can't be with you or anyone that puts me on a pedestal like you are clearly doing with me."
"But, but… It's my sister, isn't it?" Howleen scowled. "You like her don't you- "
"Whether I like her or not doesn't matter." Frowning I stood up and crossed my arms across my chest. "Howleen you are so fixated on your sister that you don't focus on yourself." Sighing I shook my head and gently tapped my foot on…Oh god the nervous tick is back. "Listen I'm going to go, but you should seriously think on- "
"D… Before you go, could you do me a favor?" Howleen asked looking very small and tiny at this moment.
Rubbing the bridge of my nose I nodded, though I had a bad feeling about this.
"Would you… Would you kiss me?"
Yep, I was right. "Howleen, I don't think that's a good- "
"Please D, just once. If I can't be with you could you do this thing for me?" The pink haired teen stared up at me with an almost pleading look.
"It's not a good idea, if I did this it would just make things worse." Shaking my head, I turned around poised to leave but was stopped as a bunch very tiny werewolf pups tackled me to the ground. "Gah!"
"Hey we're home!" Mrs. Wolf called out as she and her husband walked into the room.
"Kids, get off D." Mr. Wolf whistled. "You okay son?" The older werewolf said as he bent over and held out his hand to me.
Taking the hand of the werewolf I smiled gratefully and stood up. "Thanks Mr. Wolf."
Laughing Mr. Wolf shook his head. "Call me Talbot son." Frowning the older werewolf looked to me than his daughter then back to me and raised an eyebrow. "What's going on?"
"Dad I can- "
"I think you should explain what's happening." Walking into the room was Clawdeen and Clawd, the first of the two was glaring at her younger sister, while Clawd looked a little confused. Sighing I rubbed my nose and quickly explained what was going on but I omitted a couple details to make Howleen look better. After getting everything settled Howleen had given me my jacket back and ran off to her room, with her mom and Clawdeen to comfort her while I was dealing with Clawd and his dad outside the house.
Despite the fact that I may have had broken Talbot's daughter and Clawd's little sister's heart but they were taking it surprisingly well.
"D, you need to relax." Mr. Talbot smiled slightly patting my back. "I'm not upset with you, you did the smart thing."
"Yeah bro, does it suck that Howleen is upset? Of course, but you did the smart thing. Now relax will yeah? We aren't going to tear your head off." Clawd shrugged and leaned against the railing of the wrap around porch.
Sighing I shook my head and crossed the arms across my chest and bit my lip. "Yeah, but it still sucks I never wanted to hurt her."
"Yeah but dude this was bound to happen, I'm just hopping things are going well… Back there." Talbot jerked his thumb back into the house.
"They've been in there for over an hour."
"Don't worry we're done for now." Walking out of the house was Clawdeen she had a blank look on her face. "Howleen's fine, it will take time but I think she will be alright. Hey dad, Clawd you mind if I take to D alone for a moment?"
Both werewolves looked at one another and nodded their heads and disappeared into the house leaving me alone with Clawdeen. The two of us stood in silence for the longest time, to be honest I wasn't sure what to say to Clawdeen, and I'm sure she was feeling the same. However, the silence was broken when Clawdeen cleared her throat. "Listen D this whole thing with Howleen, well… I don't think- "
"That we should continue whatever it is… We were doing?" I asked with a raised eyebrow.
Sighing Clawdeen nodded and crossed her arms across her chest and looked away." Yeah… I don't want to but the timing with this whole thing with Howleen…"
Frowning I nodded feeling a bitter taste in my mouth. "It would be best if we don't do anything not until it blows over."
"Yeah… "Taking a deep breath I rubbed my face. "I think I should go." Patting Clawdeen on the back I headed back over to where I left my bike, and sadly yes it was still raining. Sighing I removed the tarp over my bike and started to fold it back up when I felt someone place a hand on my shoulder. Turning around I found myself face to face with Clawdeen who was now getting drenched. "Clawdeen what- "I started to say but stopped when the werewolf girl pushed my face against hers, Now I have been kissed before, but this kiss was different it. Her lips were wet, obviously, but they were also soft, warm and dear sweet god it was amazing.
Slowly pulling back Clawdeen pulled on my bottom lip a little bit and smiled sadly. "I always wanted to do that, but it's too bad it's too late."
"It doesn't have to be Clawdeen we- "I started to say but Clawdeen put a finger on my lip and shook her head.
"No, we can't, not yet." Shaking her head, the werewolf girl pecked me on the lips and pulled away and headed back to the house. Frowning I pulled on my helmet and after getting out my keys I took off, heading home. The moment I got home I parked my bike into the garage and pulled off my helmet. Walking into the house I shook some of the water out of my hair and headed to my room.
"Hey D, welcome home! How did the study-Wait are you crying?" Gigi asked with a concerned look on her face.
"No, it's raining."
