As the family finished breakfast, the kids went to the living room while Nate’s and Eric’s parents cleaned up in the kitchen. The four teens sat down and started talking, mainly to get to know Asmee more. Nate and Casey took the couch, sitting closer then usually but still having an awkward look to them with them holding hands. Eric and Asmee, on the other hand, sat on the loveseat leaning close to each other.
Not holding back from wanting to mess with his brother, Eric makes a comment to Nate and Casey. “How can you too make so much noise in bed but barely hold hands?”
Asmee elbows Eric once again, getting on to him for being mean to his older brother. “Be nice. I bet it is hard coming out just after being turn into a werewolf.”
“Not knowing was the hard part.” Nate replies. “I mean, Casey and I have been friends forever, but…”
“I don’t think we ever let our minds go that far” Casey continues. “Besides, I always imagined having kids.”
“We could always adopt.” Nate replied to his boyfriend.
“Besides, it’s not like you too really tried dating girls, have you?” Nate ask, out of pure curiosity.
“I guess not.” Nate replied. “But still, it’s not like we looked at other boys either.”
Asmee could tell that it was a difficult subject for the two older boys, so she willingly changed the subject. “Hey, Eric, why do you come with me to pick up some clothes and stuff from my house after Officer Ramirez stops by.”
“Sure!” Eric says happily.
“How is it, living rich?” Casey asks sheepishly.
“Well, when my parents are away, I just focus on school and stuff. I have most of what I need at the house. If I get lonely, I usually go to the community center near the gates. Most of my classmates are there because they are rarely in class either.” Asmee replies.
“I would love to not have to go to class every day.” Eric replies.
“It’s not all fun. I still have to do schoolwork and most the time I have to look up the answers without help. And it does get quiet.” Asmee looks down as her stomach, tracing one of her new breasts. “I was actually hoping that your parents will let me stay here while you three are in school this week. My parents aren’t back for another week, even if they tried to hurry.”
Walling in, hearing some of conversation, Maggie smiles as she places a hand on Nates shoulder. “We would be delighted. Derek can take you and Eric by your house to get what you need.” Just then, the doorbell rings. “That must be the officer.” Maggie says as she joins her husband to opening the door, leaving the kids alone again.
“Hello?” Derek asks as he opens the door.
In stepped a plan clothes officer, his badge sitting on his belt. “Do you mind if I come in?”
“Please.” Maggie replied before the three of them walk into the kitchen.
After a few minutes, Maggie calls for Nate to come to the kitchen. The other three kids sit there quietly, trying to listen in, but not hearing anything. After what felt like an eternity, Maggie calls for the other kids.
Walking in and taking seats at the table, Eric, Casey and Asmee see Officer Ramirez standing near the kitchen counter as Maggie and Derek stood near Nate, who was sitting at the end of the table.
“How are you doing, Ms. Asmee?” Officer Ramirez asks.
“Okay.” Asmee replied, pulling at her shirt to hide her new breasts, and holding onto Eric’s hand.
“Well, I am going to tell you three what we just talk about.” Officer Ramirez states, “Nate is will not get in trouble because he didn’t buy the Lunar Ecstasy. Plus, he was able to add more detail to the man that has been behind getting all the schools hooked on the drug. I do believe now that it is the same man that tossed it into your bus, Ms. Asmee.”
“Really?!” Asmee replies in pure shock.
“Yes, and it may be enough to get an ID on the guy to.” Officer Ramirez continues before looking at Eric’s and Nates Parents, “I will be in contact with you soon. I may need Nate for a line-up.” Officer Ramirez then looks back at the kids, “Now, with your, um, new parts… there is not much we can do right now. We don’t know how long they will stick around. For some kids, a second dose makes they parts disappear. Others, they stay more animal after the initial transformation. Some, nothing changes. We just have to wait and see.”
Just then, Officer Ramirez gets a phone call. He answers it quickly. “Yes, I see…”
