I'm not dead, I just work now

Jerome's POV

I was startled awake when I heard the wood creak from somewhere in the house, I looked beside me in the darkness and seen Mitch curled up next to me.

A small hiss followed after another creak and I growled softly. I'd start my transform into a civilized beast in the morning.

As I softly padded towards the sound and blending in with the shadows, I couldn't help but wiggle as I made my move to pounce, the boxers getting in the way just a bit as I jumped on the beings back, which caused it to yell out in surprise.

I yipped as it caught on fire, quickly falling off and landing on my side. Lights flickered in front of me before the being looked down at me and tilted its head, I did the same in confusion and stood up on my feet.

"....What the hell are you?" We asked at the same time.

"Jerome what now?" Mitch groaned out as the lights came on.

"Preston what the fuck are you doing here so late?" I looked back at the fire man and he looked at me.

"Preston"

"Jerome" I looked back to Mitch and he yawned and sighed.

"Yes Jerome, this is Preston, a lava mob, and Preston, this is Jerome, a bacca...all settled? Great, back to bed" Mitch yawned as he returned to his room.

"...Mitch are you cheating on me? I'm hurt" Preston sobbed as he turned into ice which caused me to yip out and follow my mate.

"Good" Mitch mumbled and fell onto the bed. I smiled as I pulled the covers over him and licked his cheek.

"Aww that's so cute! Um Jerome is it?" I looked back at Preston after laying back down with Mitch.

"Preston leave...it's in the middle of the damned night...I'll...we'll answer questions in the fucking morning" Mitch groaned out as he dozed off.

"Aww....but it's my birthday!" He yelled out and his flames erupted causing me to get into a defensive crouch with my fur poofed up and snarled at him getting him to scream and leave the room.

"Good boy" I couldn't help but wag my tail at that.

"I'm a good boy"

Honestly I don't think I wanna make this chapter any longer cause it's so cute but I gotta

In the morning

I yawned as Mat stood in front of me, I was lazily laying my head on Mitch's lap.

"I guess I can continue the process, after all it is him transitioning still..." He beeped, I flicked an ear at him and yawned again as Mitch started stroking my head.

"Sounds good..." I muttered sleepily, that Preston thing hadn't left until dawn and I was on watch all night. I need to get a better understanding of Mitch's friends.

"Jerome, you wanna go for a walk tod-" Mat didn't even finish his sentence as I zoomed towards the door, sitting and wagging my little tail. Only when neither of them moved did I stand up on my two feet.

"Sorry uh...sure" I wiped my hands and went in the bedroom. This was gonna be a long day...

Time skip

"Jerome wait! No don't-ugh..." Mitch had thrown a stick out of his way and by instinct I went after it. I didn't know how long I ran for but I knew these pants Mitch had given me were gonna get ripped.

"Oof! Ow..." I shook my head and looked to seen what I bumped into. A vicious growl came from the big black lump and as it turned around I seen it was a bear.

Immediately I snarled at it, it stood up and roared at me, I was gonna aim for the throat but then I head a few small groans behind it.

Two cubs raced out in front of what I guessed was the mother bear and sat down, lowering my head to bow at her until she got back on her paws and left with her babies.

There was a jolt of sorrow in my chest as I imagined that being my own offspring. Why can't Mitch just bear young yet?? Honestly how long should it take? I'll keep trying though! Until he bears my young!
