Chp 2

Toby woke up gently, not having slept so well in weeks. He stumbled out of bed, his body a bit sore. He had slept for nearly 12 hours, so it wasn't much of a surprise. He stiffly exited his room and went across the hall and into the bathroom. He hopped the short wall of the tub, took the handle in his teeth, and turned it to hot. The water hit him immediately, his body starting to shiver before it warmed up. The shock to the senses helped him wake up. The water quickly warmed up, the heat relaxing his stiff body. He felt like a drowned rat with the way his fur hung, but the cascade of water felt good. He closed his eyes and dunked his head in, shaking it around.

His relaxation was broken by the sound of the door opening. He stayed quiet, a little shy but he was protected by the curtain. He remained that way, until the curtain was moved aside and Ash climbed in behind him, humming happily. "Aunt Ash!" Toby shouted.

"Oh, I'm sorry Toby. We usually shower together, as we only have two bathrooms. You don't mind, do you?"

"Kinda... It just feels weird."

"It's not like we aren't naked all day anyways. You'll be fine." She said with finality, stepping past him and into the stream of water. She shuddered at the feeling, letting out a relaxed noise. Toby hopped out and stood under the blow-dryer, his fur billowing in the hot air. "Sorry if I scared you." Ash said from inside the shower.

"No, it's okay." The blush on his face said otherwise. He had never been very comfortable cleaning himself in front of others. "I don't wanna intrude on your habits." He said, hastily leaving the room.

He returned to his room, a blush still creeping through his brown fur. He hopped onto bed, pressed the big button on the remote to turn on the TV, and started to fix his fur, putting much more effort into it than last night. Soon, his fur was fixed, no longer puffed out and clumped together. Now, what was he going to do with the day? Normally, he spent all day working. He felt like he needed to do something instead of sitting around all day.

He departed his room to find someone and ask if there was anything he could do. As he went down the stairs, he saw a light yellow tail passing into the dining room. He rushed after it, catching Ash halfway to the kitchen doors. "Aunt Ash!" He yelled, getting her attention. "I was wondering if there was anything I could do around here, like chores, or something."

"I can't think of anything off the top of my head. Most of the time, the person best suited to the job does it. Like Breeze does the dishes and cleaning most of the time. There's hardly ever any jobs that require immediate attention."

"So, there's nothing?"

"Not really. Think of this as a vacation and relax. One thing you could do is join me for lunch." She said, continuing on to the kitchen. Toby followed, both of them getting a bowl full of high grade pokechow. They sat down side by side at the table. "So, do you have a plan going forward? Maybe getting an education."

"I was planning on getting a new job as soon as possible. I'll probably go to college once I save up enough money."

"So Toby, listen. We love having you here and you're welcome to everything we have but you need to know something. You'll figure it out eventually and I'd rather tell you personally." She took a deep breath. "Your aunts and I... we're close, closer than most families are. We've all had... relations, physical ones, with each other."

"Wait, wait... so you're all... lesbians?" He asked, unbelieving.

"No, we still like males. We just like girls too."
