The Alpha [Poofless]

Chapter 17: Confessions (Part 2)

[Rob's POV (The next day....)]

I paced back and forth in my room, my phone up to my ear.

"I really want to do it, but I don't know how, Jerome!" I say, panic evident in my tone. Jerome, who is on the other end, sighs.

"It'll be fine, trust me!" Jerome tries to reassure me.

"I guess... I'm gonna go do it now. Wish me luck."

"I'm rooting for 'ya, buddy!" Jerome says before I hang up. Running a hand through my hair, I go to my messages on my phone and begin texting Preston.

Rob:
[Hey... Preston?]

Preston <3:
{Yeah Robbie?}

Rob:
[Can you meet me at my mom's tree in your fox form?]

Preston <3:
{Sure! What time?}

Rob:
[Is 8:00 PM okay?]

Preston <3:
{Yep! See you there Robbie!}

Rob:
[See you there you cactus.]

[Preston's POV]

"I wonder why he wanted me to meet there?" I mumble out loud to myself.

"Guess I'm just going to have to wait and see."

~Timeskip (Still Preston's POV)~

I padded through the woods in my fox form towards the meeting spot, my mind racing.

'I'm so nervous! I wonder why he asked me to meet him there?' I thought to myself.

Finally making it to the meeting spot, I gasped in awe. The trees surrounding the clearing had jars filled with tiny fireflies in them, giving off a soft glow. It was truly breathtaking.

Rob stood in his wolf form on the other side of the clearing.

[3rd Person POV]

The two padded towards each other, meeting up in the middle of the clearing. Leaves fell from the trees and floated around them gracefully. The moonlight shown on the two.

"H-Hi Robbie." Preston said, his voice raspy and quiet. Although his voice was rough, it was music to Rob's ears.

"Hi Preston." Rob said, blushing slightly.

"S-So, uhm... w-why did you ask m-me to meet you h-here?" Preston asked.

Rob padded away for a moment, coming back wearing a flower crown made of blue flowers and gently holding a flower crown made of orange flowers in his jaws. Rob stood in front of Preston, gently placing the orange flower crown down at his paws. He sighed for a moment.

'You can do this, Rob. It's just as you practiced...' He thought before beginning to speak.

"Preston.... when we first became friends, you were always so nice to me. You cheered me up when I was sad, and you were always there for me. When we became best friends, I realized something. I tried to push those feelings away, but they kept coming back. What I'm trying to say is...." Rob took a deep breath before continuing.

"I've fallen for you. And I wanted to ask...."

"Do you like me back?" Rob finished.

Preston was in shock. Rob noticed his expression, looking down and awaiting his rejection.

But it never came.

"Y-yes, I do like you back, R-Robbie!" Preston said, blushing. His blush stook out like a sore thumb due to the color of his fur.

Rob laughed happily, nuzzling Preston's face with his own.

"You have no idea how happy I am right now. I was so scared that you would reject me." Rob said.

"S-So.... does t-this make us a t-thing now?" Preston asks.

Rob nods, gently grabbing the orange flower crown and placing it atop of Preston's head.

"I suppose it does, my Reine des fleurs." Rob says.

Preston blushes. "I-I have no idea what y-you said...."

"I called you my Flower Queen in French." Rob replies.

"O-oh! Well, I-I love you, my F-Flower King."

"I love you too, my Reine des fleurs."

[A/N]

Woo! So Poofless has finally sailed in this book! (It's about freaking time!)

Sorry for the long wait! I had other things I really wanted to take care of.

Anyways, peace out Technos, and as always......

Stay classy!~

~{Bonus (3rd Person POV)}~

A bit further into the forest from Rob's mother's tree, Jerome, Kenny- who were in their wolf forms- and Choco, who was in his hybrid form, watched Rob and Preston from afar.

"Told you guys they'd get together! And you guys doubted my ultimate wingman skills." Jerome whispered, a proud look in his eyes.

Kenny rolled his eyes. "Yeah, yeah, whatever."

"Shhhhh, this is adorable." Choco said, pointing at Preston and Rob, who were affectionately nuzzling each other.

"Awwwww~" Choco, Kenny, and Jerome quietly cooed.
