Modern Monsters

Callum the Orc

Female Reader x Male Monster

----------------------------------

Rather than going to the high school reunion, you and your old high school friends decided to do something else. Some of you had kept in touch, and as the reunion talk heated up, you managed to get in contact with the others. The group of you decided to go in together to rent a cabin and spend a long weekend together catching up and going over old memories.

You lived closest to the cabin, so your job was to take some of the funds and stock the cabin with snacks and drinks before everyone showed up. You were alone there for a while, as the others wouldn't show up until late afternoon. You had found some old things from high school which you brought along, including a year book and an old scrapbook you made during senior year. You'd not open the scrapbook since you found it due to the overwhelming second hand embarrassment you knew you'd get once you did.

As you were meandering through the cabin you heard a car pull up outside. From the window you saw a rather nice car and someone getting out of it. You hurried downstairs to see who had arrived first.

"I wasn't expecting anyone so soon!" You said with excitement.

They were at their trunk now and hidden so you couldn't see who it was. "Things just worked out so I could arrive early." They closed the trunk and there stood someone you barely recognized.

Your heart skipped a beat and you felt a flush come over your cheeks. You hesitated to take a step forward as you tried to assess who this could be. Granted, there was only one person this could possibly be.

You squint your eyes and smiled. "No way, Callie?"

The big orc chuckled and reached into his pocket, taking out a set of very familiar looking glasses which he put on. "I haven't been called that in years."

You stared at him, mouth agape, taking in as much as you could without feeling like a creep. Callie, real name Callum, had always been the runt of the friend group. He'd been accelerated two grades, so he was also the youngest. In your mind you'd always pictured him that way, but now... Holy crap wow! Callie was tall, well dressed, and extremely handsome. His moss colored skin looked soft and supple, his hair was sleek and shiny, tied back into a bun that must have been done by a professional. He wasn't the skinny underdog in your memory any more.

"When you said you had a growth spurt-" You started to giggle.

Callie smirked and looked aside shyly. "Well you know, I still feel like arunt sometimes."

You went towards him, putting your arms around him as he dipped down. He smelled absolutely amazing! Whatever cologne he wore, you wanted some for yourself.

"It's so good to see you," you sighed.

"Thanks for contacting me." He picked up his bag and followed you inside. "I've been awful about keeping in touch with people."

"You don't need to explain. You've been a very busy boy," you chuckled. "C'mon, I'll show you to your room."

"I may be busy with everything, but that doesn't excuse ignoring old friends. Especially when you all took such good care of me back then." He followed you into a small room and set his bag down upon the bed.

"We were picked on too, it just came with the territory." You watched him from behind as he pulled off his jacket. His shirt strained across his back and you quickly glanced away.

"You probably want to get comfortable, so I'll let you be. I'm still setting some things up in the kitchen." You take a step backwards out of the door. "Do you want me to make you a drink or anything?"
