As the various pies were offered and served, Spencer Lawson said, "OOOH! I'd love a piece of chocolate meringue please."
"Spencer, you know chocolate makes your face break out," her mother Maggie cautioned her, to which Eric just smiled and ate his piece of blueberry, although he was a bit disappointed. The chocolate meringue was the only store bought pie amongst everything home made, because his father liked it too and neither Martha or her son had mastered how to make the fluffy topping yet.
"So? It's not like it's going to matter for the next couple of days anyway," said Spencer, as she used her good arm to rub her furry muzzle.
Food and small talk were the order of the moment, but even those who had never been to the Andersons before were soon able to pick up on the hints about what lied ahead that were beginning to appear.
So, everyone gets together for more than just food on a regular basis, realized Kenya Adaeze, as she saw Martha Anderson and Maggie Lawson eyeing each other while seductively licking their respective spoons. Even if I'm invited tonight, should Nate and I join in the fun? There is no way Eric could have done so before now and still be a normal, but does that mean Spencer goes solo? And would she enjoy lying between my legs? she wondered, discretely eyeing the hybrid were wolf/cat whenever the opportunity arose.
After finishing his pumpkin pie (he'd have to talk to Alex Ramsey about whether or not his boyfriend knew how to fix that later), Ben Twist excused himself to borrow the Anderson's downstairs bathroom.
With his business concluded, Ben was about to open the door when Alex came bursting in and locked the door behind him.
"Hey. I'm happy to see you too stud, but can't this wait until—"
"How long before we leave?" asked Alex hastily. "When I was in the kitchen taking care of our dishes, that Mrs. Lawson made another pass at me."
"So?" asked Ben in return, a bit amused. He knew their love was strong and there was no way either of them would ever stray, especially for a woman.
"I know from my time with you the Lawsons have had a rough week or so. I don't know all the details of everything that might have happened to them to make her do this, but since we were alone in the kitchen, Mrs. Lawson grabbed my dick through my pants and said she would love to rock my world and yours and show us how the other half lives."
Spencer followed Eric into the kitchen with what she could help carry of dirty dishes. There were two things on her mind. The first, why did Eric look so disappointed since the start of dessert?
When he explained the reason, Spencer hugged him and said, "I'm sorry Slugger. If I had known..."
"It's okay. Mom's taught both Nate and I our way around the kitchen under the belief that a man should at least be able to do more than nuke a TV dinner. I'll never be as good as her or Alex at cooking, but at least we'll never starve," said Eric, before kissing her.
Spencer eagerly returned the kiss, and longed for more, but that would have to wait. "I promise to take a were bag of every pie you made home with me sweetie. There's even a few that I know Grandpa likes, so I'll take some for him too if I can. But have you any idea why that Kenya keeps looking at me? You haven't talked to her about..."
"No. I've chatted with her over dinner, but I promised you WE would discuss anything that affects our future, let alone me becoming a were, together first," Eric reminded her, as he started securing the leftover desserts so they'd stay fresh.
"So then, what's her deal?" asked Spencer.
"I don't know," answered Eric, while shrugging his shoulders. "Maybe she's never seen a hybrid before. I know I've never seen anyone, were or human, as beautiful as you."
"Aww..." said Spencer, while hugging her boyfriend again. Yet Spencer knew that look on Kenya's face. It was the same kind her mother had when eyeing a potential sex partner.
She wants me, realized Spencer, wondering when the best time would be to inform Eric, let alone tell him about her own, occasional bi tendencies.
