* Cain's POV*

I had woken the next morning in an empty bedroom. Usually, I'd awake to the soft sounds of a sleeping Austin. But glancing towards his untouched bed, I couldn't recognise the familiar bundle amongst the sheets that was usually there. Yet I knew I wasn't completely alone, since Nash was just downstairs. I sighed and lay staring at the ceiling for a while, before forcing myself up and out of bed. I went about my morning routine at a sluggish pace however by the time I was completely dressed (in the usual sweatpants and a rather plain loose shirt) I was almost fully awake. In fact, I jogged downstairs though in a quite clumsy manner, only spotting my shorter roomie curled up on the sofa with his red hair all messy and dressed up more than I was- which was always the case with him- in dark purple skinny jeans and a simple white All Time Low shirt that was obviously way too big for him.

Unlike most people, Nash was quite easy to just push around. He was small for starters, and he couldn't fight back. So, without a word I simply lurched toward him and grabbed him by his waist, scooping him over my strong shoulder. I could hear him squeal in slight protest and lightly thud his fists against my back though it did almost no damage to my strong and well looked after frame. "Morning jog!" I announced. I usually took part in these activities with Austin instead of Nash since Nash preferred to sit at home and stare at his phone for countless hours as if waiting to receive a text or a call, which was iffy considering as far as I knew, he didn't have that many friends. Well actually the only ones I knew of that he had was me and Austin. I only knew some things about him, how we met was rather brief. I had seen him sitting on the curb of an empty street, he wouldn't tell me where about he lived so I had guessed he was homeless, so I offered him a place with me and Austin. In all honesty I didn't know much about him at all. He rarely involved himself in conversations with me and Austin or anyone else. I kept myself at a slow pace as we exited the house, keeping him slumped over my shoulder. He didn't complain much more as we approached the oak and pine forest that lingered just outside our house and my pace quickened.

I only slowed and eventually stopped when we came to a crystal clear ravine that divided the very middle of the forest in half, a herd of deer hovering around the opposite side. I placed Nash down and he opened his mouth to begin to rant but I silenced him with a slim finger pressed against my lips. I dove behind a thick oak tree, shifting gradually into a large brown wolf, tinted with darker shades in places such as my face and legs, though my eyes had lightened into a shade of quite aggressive amber. Nash, by now, had ducked behind a leafy bush opposite me and had begun shifting painfully into his form. He didn't shift as much as I did, barely ever and I could see the clear pain in his loud eyes. Soon enough he was down on all fours as a sooty coloured wolf with lighter patches blazing down his forehead, across his muzzle and mouth, all the way down to his chest where it expanded into a wider fogged and blended with the rest of his pelt. His eyes remained the same. We quietly snuck out toward the ravine, and I was the first to strike. Darting quickly through the water toward the now scattering herd. However I tracked one that was falling behind and quickly skidded around its legs, making it off balance. Nash came clumsily sprinting in behind me, leaping in front of the fallen doe and now nipping violently at its nose and face in general. I rolled my eyes and held the beast down with two heavy and huge paws as I sunk my fangs into it, tasting the bitter liquid in my mouth.

*NASH POV*

I watched as Cain made a swift and easy kill, better than I could ever do. Ever. But now my canine form was becoming uncomfortable and a chilly wind had started to pick up, so I shifted into my human form, only remembering you shift back naked. I let my face flush and cover my pale body, as I quickly ran back for the house, knowing Cain was following in his wolf-form since I could hear the heavy falling of his paws and the deer being dragged effort fully across the dry ground. Once our house came into view, I hurried inside with wide eyes and ran upstairs, into the bathroom, locking the door quickly behind me. I heard Cain come inside moments after

on what sounded like two feet. He called for Austin and waited a few minutes before his attention returned to me. "Don't use up all the hot water if you're taking a shower!" He called and a smirk pulled across my lips. "Oh, suuure.." I answered, making sure he was aware of the tease I had intentionally used. I undressed, checked my cherry red hair in the mirror and then hopped into the shower, turning on the water. I made sure I took longer than usual, until the water had started to run cold. Only then did I turn the shower off and wrap a towel around my waist, opening the door.

I walked out only to find myself being stared down at by a rather impatient Cain and I instinctively covered my body again. "There better be fucking hot water, god help you if not." he growled and glared down at me before entering the bathroom and closing the door behind him. I just gave a smug grin and walked over to where I stored my clothes. I pulled on a pair of clean boxers, black sweatpants, a shirt with "what the fuck!?" Printed over his chest in white bold letters and a plain black beanie. I then heard Cain shriek like a girl and then him angrily scream: "NASH!!!". I hobbled over to the bathroom and walked in since Cain never locked the door and with his regular shifting I'd gotten used to seeing him naked and it no longer bothered me at all. I tilted my head innocently at him as he stood away from the cold water, glaring at me. "My dick is shrinking." He snapped and I burst into hysterical laughter, to which he reacted by reaching out his strong and particularly long arms out and grabbing me. He picked me up with no used effort at all and dropped me under the freezing water. I gave a girly scream and flung myself forth Into Cain's body instinctively but then pulled back with a blush. My teeth were chattering and my lips were blue where I had no where else to go except under the freezing water. "The feeling's mutual." Cain replied before picking me up and taking us both out of the shower. He grabbed a rather large towel and ordered me to strip down into my boxers, to which I did as the wet clothing was beginning to stick to my skin. Cain slipped a clean pair of his boxers on and then led us both out of the bathroom, toward the living room and the lit up fireplace. He pushed me onto the couch and cuddled up at my side, covering us both over with the towel and we remained like that the majority of the afternoon. Cuddled together in front of the fireplace.
