Not Exactly Puppy Love

Kiss In The Shadows

It was around twilight when Red managed to duck out of her home and off into the forest. This time, her furry friend made himself known by creeping up from behind and jump scaring her. She yelped whilst jumping about a foot in the air before turning around and beating at his shoulder, he only laughed.

"I'm just a kid, don't scare me like that!" His laughter lowered to an alluring chuckle. "Oh but you little ones are so entertaining to scare." She frowned and continued to beat him. "You shouldn't abuse someone's soul like that!" His smile melted into a light growl before he grabbed both her hands in one paw and placed the other on her lower back, pulling her up against him. She let out a soft gasp, cheeks flushed.

"But you do like it when I touch you, don't you my little one?" She moaned faintly as he brushed his nose over her forehead, standing up a little straighter when he trailed his nose down the side of her face. "I do like it when you're close to me Wolf, I like it very much." He smiled before gently latching into the crock of her neck.

She let out a long low moan, hands going to his back as his hands slid down to her lower body. With a heave, she soon found herself held bridal style against his furry chest. "Let's go somewhere private, shall we?" She barely smiled before he started off through the misty woods.

There was something about the way they played that night that suggested they knew how much of a risk they were taking; they could've gone all the way but didn't get past second base. Red wanted to, but he didn't. She watched him as he slipped out of the cave and waited a moment before following him. For a long moment, there was only silence, before she lay her head on his shoulder and faintly smiled, raising a hand to play with the fur on his chest.

"I ran into an old friend of mine today, a boy." He froze. "Are you two close?" "Not as close as I am to you." He relaxed, but only a little. "What's his name, and how do you know him?" She lay her head in his lap and paused before speaking.

"His name's Jack, we met through our mothers. We were each other's best friends for a while, then as we got older things changed." He allowed a small smile to slide to his lips, she had yet to truly understand the effects of puberty. "I'm starting to notice the way he looks at me, there's so much sincerity in his eyes. And...I don't know what to do about it." She tilted her head back to gaze into his dark eyes. "Is that wrong?" He chuckled while playing with the ends of her braids.

"You don't really understand boys do you?" "Why do you think I chose to sleep with a man?" He laughed, a great bellow that soon had him on his back as she draped her arms over his stomach. When he finally calmed down he raised his head to meet her eyes, smiling softly before pressing a palm to her cheek. Her eyes fluttered closed as she leaned into his touch and held onto his wrist.

"So you don't like Jack, in that way?" She opened her eyes with the sweetest smile before leaning until their faces were only an inch apart. "If I did, I would've slept with him instead of you." He grinned before accepting her gentle kiss.
