My Atypical Wolf (BL)

Chapter 148: Closer

“Everyone is staring at us. I am not liking this one bit.” Caleb mumbled as he took a glance across the room.

“So what? Let them.”Ashton shrugged. “Ever since I got outed I have been getting these constantly”, Ashton replied to him without bothering to check.

“Wait what? That’s horrible” Caleb’s voice got louder.

“Meh. I am used to them. I can not care less and I know how to ignore them.” Ashton shrugged it off.

“Well... I don’t. It’s creeping me out...” Caleb mumbled unsure. He was starting to reconsider his decision of enjoying the prom.

“Try focusing on something else.” Ashton suggested. “Like this song they are playing. Or perhaps....” his voice lowered and he bent down to reach Caleb’s ears, “me”?

There was an instant rush of blood into his earlobes as he blurted, “What?” Clearing his throat, he continued “Ashton we are at the school. Please calm down, this is not the time and pla-”

.....

“I meant, let’s dance.” Ashton cut him off. “Dancing will take your mind off them. What were you thinking? Get your head out of the gutter” Ashton teased.

“Sure, that’s what you meant”. Caleb rolled his eyes.

Ashton dragged him to an empty area on the dance floor. Based on the song, both of them slow-danced with each other while occasionally giving each other affectionate gazes. “You know, back then, I really believed you can’t dance”. Caleb admitted, recalling a conversation he shared with Ashton last time he was in here.

“Yeah, I am kind of a hidden talent” Ashton joked to lighten the mood only to get Caleb to simply roll his eyes.

As their dance progressed, something started to draw them even closer. At first it was just the vibe of charged moves. As their dance progressed further it was Ashton’s hand on Caleb’s waist that pulled him even closer.

When they were close enough to feel the tingle of each other’s lingering breath on the other’s skin, Caleb looked up to meet his mate’s intense gaze as if it was looking deep into his soul. Closing the tiny distance between them Ashton put his lips on Caleb’s and kissed him in the middle of the dance floor unbothered by the hundreds of eyes watching them. Ashton loved this man, and he was not afraid to show it.

Caleb, who was a bit shy earlier, kissed him back with equal vigor. In that moment it seemed everything that was happening in the background faded away even further. Their passionate kiss was enough to take off many glances off them, but they couldn’t care less. Because they simply cared about being with each other.

Ashon pulled away and smiled and Caleb who chuckled at his expression. “What”? Ashton asked.

“Nothing.” Caleb assured. “It’s rare to see you so bold”.

“Well...” Ashton sighed. “If you can declare your love for me in front of the entire pack including your father, why can’t I kiss you in front of the entire school”? Ashton raised one of his eyebrows.

“Look at you being so dramatic” Caleb snorted. “What happened to the shy, somewhat rude, somewhat annoyed kid I fell in love with”? Caleb teased.

“The kid grew up,” Ashton smirked. “And got himself an awesome mate”. He kissed Caleb once more. Once he pulled away and mumbled. “Just for the record, I am still rude. Just not with you”. He winked and Caleb ended up laughing.

After dancing for a while when the song started to change to a much enthusiastic one both of them decided to take a break and sat in one of the chairs at the distance. It’s not like they needed a break or they were tired, but there was something peaceful just sitting next to each other doing nothing.

“You know, sitting here away from everyone else, just observing others kinda gives me dejà vù.” Caleb spoke up.

“Uh huh” Ashton sighed.

“I remember, one minute I am sitting here talking to you, and the next thing I know you are singing a song that turned my entire world around”. Caleb sighed.

“What are you talking about”? Ashton frowned. “Did you... decide for the mark just because of the song I sang”?

“Not really. It simply encouraged me,” Caleb clarified. “I just... I didn’t want to wait anymore. I should have tried a different approach, but I was scared of rejection”. Ashton’s expression softened as he realised why Caleb stormed off the other night. “That was one hell of a crazy night”. Caleb chuckled.

“Come on” Ashton stood up and reached his hand out to Caleb.

“To where”? Caleb’s brow twisted.

“Just... come with me”. Ashton insisted.

Caleb agreed and took Ashton’s hand. Both of them walked out of the celebration and found themselves on the ground floor headed off to the same closet where their relationship took a sharp turn almost two years ago. “Why are we here”? Caleb asked skeptically once they reached their destination.

“We were reminiscing. So, I brought you here” Ashton shrugged.

“I see”, Caleb narrowed his glance. “Well, to be honest, this place does have a special memory for us despite it’s disgusting appearance. This is where we had our first kiss”.

“Right”. Ashton mumbled unsure earning a frown from Caleb. Did Ashton forget that? Although he probably can’t blame him given the nature of their relationship back then. Once Ashton noticed Caleb’s expression he soon clarified, “It’s not like I don’t remember. I do. It’s just that...” Ashton fumbled with words so he took a deep breath.

“It’s just... back then, it didn’t mean anything. We were still on the high from the mark and we were... you know... in the mood. It was purely sexual and I felt bad for taking advantage of the situation. I guess I always considered the kiss in your Car as the first one, because that time I meant to, with all my heart”.

“It meant to me though” Caleb admitted honestly. “Like I said, I had feelings for you way back”. A poignant smile appeared on his face as he mumbled, “Sorry for forcing on you like that. I shouldn’t have”.

Ashton blinked, unsure of what to say. “Well, what if our first kiss here was messy like that. Let’s rewrite that memory, shall we?” He asked. A confused frown appeared on Caleb’s face which was replaced soon by a gaping mouth and widened eyes as Ashton pushed him against the door thus effectively closing it.

Ashton lowered his lips on Caleb and kissed him passionately to make up for his past. He pressed onto Caleb inherently crushing him between himself and the door. Getting lost in the moment, Caleb snaked both of his hands to Ashton’s neck and pulled him further closer. This was far better than their last kiss here.

After a few seconds, Ashton moved down from his lips to his neck via his jaw. Finding the mark he made, he nibbled over it. He left open mouthed wet kisses over the entire mark. Caleb found himself shaking at the intense wave of pleasure and covered his mouth with one of free hands trying his best to suppress those moans that threatened to escape his mouth. Caleb somehow didn’t forget that there were a lot of wolves in the school, and that he could be easily heard.

Caleb even bit his lips to the point of bleeding until Ashton finally let Caleb’s mark go leaving Caleb in a complete mess. He tried to catch his breath, but his mouth was soon invaded by a tongue making him forget everything else that was important. Everything that mattered to him was pushed deep into his subconscious while he kissed Ashton with all he got.

They have been apart for almost two months now. A passion restrained for that long was bound to explode some way or the other. And thus somehow being with each other so many times they kissed each other as if it was their first kiss. As if there were no tomorrow for them.

They lost track of time a long ago and after what seemed like an eternity, Ashton finally pulled away allowing both of them to catch their breaths. After a long moment of silence he asked, “Can we not go back to our house”?

Caleb looked up with scrunched eyebrows. “Let’s spend the night somewhere else. Just you and me”. Caleb’s breath hitched as he found himself speechless. He nodded slightly amidst the noise of their fluttering heart beats. A smile crept up Ashton’s lips and he gave Caleb a quick peck before he pulled himself away properly.

They went back to the prom, but neither of them wanted to be here. They simply stayed back for the sake of each other, which was ironic in itself. All they could focus on was what happened back in the closet and what could happen tonight.

After around half an hour when Caleb couldn’t take it anymore he pulled Ashton by his sleeves and asked, “Let’s get out of here. This is enough for prom”.

“Sure” Ashton smirked.
