Cross let her have the night. He climbed down from Daine, letting himself fall freely beside her, he slept off suddenly to Daine’s surprise. She stared at him in his sleep, it was like he had grown overnight, she couldn’t wait to ask him where he got the new confidence that oozed out of him, his cock too; she controlled everything usually, what now?

Cross finally slept peacefully; he snored through the rest of the night, maybe growled? Whatever the sound he made, he seemed deep in dream land, dreaming only of his new stoic.

It was a couple of minutes towards 7AM when the aroma of whatever it was Daine’s mom was cooking for breakfast woke them up; they gasped at the fact that he was still at her house, and it was getting far into the day, her mom would come knocking for her to come for breakfast;

‘Quick, out’ Daine said in a panic, helping Cross into his pyjamas and showing him out the window where he had come in from late in the night; they usually took turns at their houses every weekend, this weekend had Cross staying over at Daine’s.

‘It’s awkward going out in my pyjamas’ Cross complained, making a disapproving face at his girlfriend;

‘What would you have me do? You should have been up earlier’ she replied;

‘Daine honey’ her mom came calling from the kitchen, they could hear thuds of her footsteps approaching her room; Cross quickly fell over and out of her room via the window, and made across the lawn, several blocks to his house.

‘Daine made for her door to let her mom in after several knocks’ she had gotten rid of anything that would suggest someone else was in her room; she made for the bathroom, turning on the shower for a while and turning it off after dabbing her face, to have a good excuse for her mom as to why she took a while to answer the door.

‘Hey mom’ Daine said, opening the door suddenly, frightening her mom a bit. Her mom peeked into her room, looking around suspiciously, and glancing at Daine too;

‘What?’ Daine asked, irritated; ‘You’re always so nosy’ she complained, letting her mom in all the way;

‘I heard a lot of noise on my way here’ her mom told her; Daine stared at her, confused as to whether she was pulling her legs, or she indeed heard all the noise she made with Cross.

‘’Come down for breakfast’ her mom said, ‘your dad’s already deep into it, come now; unless you want to have left overs, or nothing at all’ she said, shutting Daine’s door behind her. Daine heaved a sigh of relief, she had held her breath while her mom interrogated her with her eyes, praying she’d leave soon. She went into the bathroom to take a quick bath, and wash her mouth from Cross’ cock. While she bent her head into the bathroom sink to rinse off, she noticed an unusually thick lump of hair clogged in the drainage, nearly making it impossible for water to pass through; she rinsed the area and pulled out a long strand of dark brown hair, or fur? she stared at it in confusion, how did it get there? Maybe it was her puppy, Klishy; but Klishy was black, this fur was a dark shade of brown, nearly black but it wasn’t black; besides, Klishy hadn’t been in her room, so how did her fur get there? and inside her sink? There was no explanation that made sense to Daine;

‘Daine!’ her mom called angrily from downstairs; she rinsed off quickly and got dressed, speeding down to have breakfast;

‘What’s wrong with you this morning?’ her mom asked, obviously irritated by her lousiness;

‘Let my girl be’ Mr Makru, Daines dad intervened, smiling at her welcoming;

‘Hi dad, I knew you’d leave out some food for me’ she said, kissing her dad’s cheek and taking a seat opposite him;

‘Of course, you bet’ he said, handing her most of the sides he had kept to himself for her while her mom threatened to eat everything up.

A lot of eyes stared disapprovingly at Cross while he walked briskly to his house in his pyjamas; he had not much of an option than to ignore their curious stares and head for home, he had bigger problems to deal with; how would he sneak back inside the house, everywhere was lit, they would definitely see him trying to climb into his room, his window faced the street where he lived; on the other hand, it was the weekend; his mom would be everywhere around the house, cleaning and cleaning over the top to the bottom, she would notice him; that’s if she hadn’t noticed his absence already;

‘Damn, my phone’s inside’ he said to himself; there was no finding out if his mom had tried to reach him; better still his younger brother would alert him if there was trouble, but he didn’t take his phone with him to Daine’s; the day was turning out to be such a drag. He got home soon enough, the sun was rising slowly, yellow in the sky, he was sweating from the heat, and also because he was terribly nervous;

‘Cross’ his brother Patrick called on him from his room. Cross looked up in the direction of his room, he was about to scold him as to what on Earth he was doing in his room, when he remembered that he needed his help getting in;

‘Pat, Where’s mom?’ he asked; Patrick took the opportunity to pay him back for previous days of meanness.

‘What’s in for me if I sneak you in?’ Patrick asked in a compromising voice;

‘Come off the games, for fucks sake...’ Cross was saying when Patrick leaned back in, shutting the window;

‘Okay, Okay, i’d let you play x-box for two hours, straight’ Cross negotiated; Patrick moved to shut the window again, he wasn’t accepting Cross’ offer;

‘Okay, Okay, four straight hours’ Cross said, sulking. Patrick’s face lit up;

‘Deal’ he said; ‘come through the back’.
