Iawoke to Creeper nudging me awake, and heat rushed to my cheeks at seeing him again.
“Dezikiel said to come get you, it’s time,” Creeper said as he leaned back.
I yawned, still tired like nothing else as I sat up.
“Do I need to change or anything?” I asked softly as I rubbed the blurriness from my eyes.
“Do you mind losing those?” he asked, indicating at my pajamas.
I just blinked at him as my my heart skipped a beat.
I couldn’t just do something like that. Not right now. Besides… I wanted my first to be special. And sure, I liked him, but…
“Because sometimes, depending on what powers you get, they can get wrecked,” he said with a frown as I let out the breath I’d been holding with an uneasy chuckle.
That made more sense.
“Um, well,” I glanced down at my old pajama shorts and shirt. I’d had them for a few years, and they were a little tight. Guess if they got wrecked, so be it. I had a night gown and another pajama set. “This’ll work.”
“Right, oh… um… I wanted to say sorry. Since Dezikiel enlightened me, some things are becoming more clear. Not immediately. Some things are immediate, others take a short while,” he said nervously, scratching his neck as he averted his eyes.
Please don’t bring up the erection. I couldn’t handle that right now.
“I’ve come to learn that going into the bathroom isn’t right. And seeing you naked isn’t either. Well, not like that, anyway,” Creeper said, his eyes flicking around as he tried to word his thoughts right.
“Hey, it’s fine. Let’s just pretend it didn’t happen,” I said as I grabbed his arm a little too tight to make him stop as my cheeks burned.
“Okay,” he nodded, unable to meet my gaze.
“Let’s just head down.” I wanted to move on from this weird talk.
I clambered out of bed, stretching and yawning as he led the way.
“Do I need anything?” I asked as we reached my bedroom door.
“No, just you,” he said absently, as if he was still mulling over things from earlier.
We headed out into the hall, and my bare feet padded softly on the carpet.
He was barefoot as well, and I was suddenly thinking of how Diane had said they’d thought clothing was optional when they first arrived.
How good did they look without their shirts on anyway?
I shoved that naughty thought aside.
They were my hellhounds, not prospective boyfriends. Besides, I didn’t have a clue about dating. I’d never done it. Kinda hard when you had monsters with you all the time.
Besides, dating one of them could make things really awkward with them all.
Were they even capable of it?
At least I knew they had the parts for it, and they could get horny, thanks to Creeper.
Oh boy. I mentally slapped myself for my naughty thoughts.
I needed to focus.
