The Weekends Gift

Friday Evening ~ Excitement

Not gonna lie, I was super excited this weekend! A little nervous but still keeping calm. My best friend from middle school is coming over today for the weekend. We havent seen eachother in four years because he moved out of state, but hes coming out here just to see me! I mean, I feel all warm and I get butterfly's in my stomach everytime I think of Dean. My tail goes crazy every time I even just simply see him. I still have a necklace that he gave me when we were kids. Ive worn it everyday since so I can think of him every day. But the only problem is.. I dont think he has any feelings for me though. I mean, he never really sounded like he was into me at all but I guess it is what it is.

I got ready and just finished making my room "decent" I guess you could say. Then I looked in a full body mirror to see a skinny looking at a yellow lab, which of course was me. i had shinny bright blondish fur. Small gauges in my canine ears. I smiled as thining i actually looked good for once. I was on my bed straightining the fur on my tail when there was a knock on my door. I bolted down the stairs, I had a pretty good guess as to of who it was. As soon as I opened the door I jumped next to him and gave Dean brotherly hug. "Wow I guess you were happy to see me?!" I smiled largely ,"How could I not be? Its been four years!"

"Well its nice to see you too Caleb." I was filled with so much joy I didnt know how to release it at all. " Is anybody home yet or are they still at work. " I started to act more sluggishly at 'they'. " Well, 'they' isnt real right now. Dad was a drunk... So mom moved away and I basically live with her now.." Saying this made my ears droop lower.. and lower. "Oh, well im sorry to hear." He gave me a hug and a pat on the back. "Its fine im used to not seeing him by now."

" If you say so Caleb."

Dean was a darker colored for a wolf. his ears were pointed and grey insisde of them. he was muscle built. His tail fur was spiked up as well. After chatting I brought Dean upstairs to my room so we could drop his stuff off. " Man, I remember this room." I looked Dan in his beautiful blue eyes, they for some reason, shined more now then I remembered a few years ago. " Ya not much has changed. Just a new bed and some some posters were switched out."

"I see." We decided to watch tv untill somebody got home. I lied on the couch while he sat in a rocker in front of me to my left. Even just looking at the back of him makes me smile. His cute little wolf ears have always had a little point at the end that I would always remember him by. He looked back at a moment I was looking at his ears focusing on the different patterns.

"What are you looking at bro?" I panicked for a second. " Um I was uh.." I didnt know what to say.. I was scared of what he would say. " You know, you can just tell me Caleb." I needed to think fast. " Uh I was just um.. looking at the back of the chair. I thought I saw something but I guess I didnt." I looked down and drooped my ears slightly.

" What did you see?" My mind was going so fast I couldn't read a single stable thought. " Oh I just thought I saw a hidden picture in the wood." A picture in the wood?! Oh I kicked myself in the ass for thinking up that one. " A picture in the wood huh." He stood up from the chair. Thats when I thought to myself that he was definitely taller then me, maybe by a few inches, but he was still definetly taller then me.

"Dude, I think you're seeing things." He said. " No I swear I saw something!" my face scraunched up just a little bit as the words escaped my mouth. Though this is not the truth, I had to think of something to say. Up untill the time mom came home, my face was as red as uncovered skin in the winter. I was just so embarrassed at the fact he caught me just memorized by his distict colors and textures of the back of his head! I meen, its so cute though! His main color of his fur was black and depending where it was, he would have thin outlineing colors of a light grey. Then theres me, im just one color and its a yellow golden color. I wish I could have at least had more then one but, hey I am who I am. And I accept that.

When mom got home she brought home pre- made tacos from the fast food place down the street. "So I see Dean made it down alright. How was the ride on the train?" Mom questioned Dean. "It was ok. A little bumpy but there was good tea." Dean said with a smile across his muzzle. "Well im gald it was a pleasant ride. Ok ill see you boys later I am going to Jennifer's house for the weekend. Ill be back monday after work. I trust you two will be alright?"

"Mom were not little kids anymore we'll be fine!" She giggled softly.

"Of coarse you will buddy. Have fun boys!"

"MOM!!" She was chuckling as she walked out the door. I looked at the clock to check the time, 10:30 pm. I heard Dean next to me, yawning. "You know.. You could go to sleep.." He looked at me with a slight grin. "You know, its been a long day. I think I will."

He want upstairs and got ready for bed. I stayed downstairs because I wasnt tired yet. I turned on a classical old western movie to pass the time. After about an hour I started getting drowsy. So I started to head upstairs.

I was in the hallway when i heard Dean yelling. Must've been his girl friend. I decided to kind if snoop into his conversation. I could barely pick up anything though, I could only make a few words out here and there. 'Why', 'Not my fault', 'what the hell is wrong with you', and 'Were through'.

I walked in a few minutes later to find dean sitting on the couch in my room, his paws to his face. "Are you, ok?" He looked at me and nodded with a small smile. "Ya, im fine."

I turned the lights off and we went to bed. Well, he did, I couldnt sleep. My mind was racing. I kept questioning if he had a girlfriend, or when was I gonna find out about her in the first place. I looked over to Dean, all quiet and sound asleep, I think. I wondered, what would it be like... To just, kiss him once. I got up quietly and stood over him. I whispered, " Deeaaann, u up?" *No responce*.

I thought once, I thought twice, and I kissed his cheek softly. I noticed a smile forming on Deans face. W.. Was he awake!? Did he just.. Smile!?!? To me kissing his cheek!?!?!? * I quickly jumped in my bed, blushing bright red. After a few minutes of thinking bout what just happened, I blacked out.
