Chapter 64 - Walking On a Tightrope

                                    

                                          
The following morning, Louis woke up, still curled around his mate. He smiled, the mornings always being his favorite part of the day. It was just theirs. No Ichi, no society, just him and Legosi, alone.
The early morning light seeped through their makeshift blinds, allowing the herbivore to see Legosi more clearly than he could at night. The wolf's already soft features were so much softer when he slumbered.
The buck squeezed him more, then remembered what they had made the previous day. He moved his head to look down at the pink lace underwear Legosi still donned. They were nice...but he preferred sleeping naked with the wolf.
Legosi yawned, unleashing a waft of dog breath as he mumbled softly.
"Blegh...what was that?" Louis asked.His answer was a long wolf tongue to the nose. The deer giggled. "Good morning to you, too."
Legosi, still asleep, said, "Where the...the...Dionaea..."
"What?"
"Mmn, Haru has some...they eat bugs..."
"Oh, plants?"
"Plant...they can eat bugs too..." Legosi nuzzled into Louis' collarbone.
"You want bugs to get eaten?"
Legosi's ears twitched. "...Why is bug eaten?"
"I'm lost."
"...Let me look for directions." Legosi's large hands began to knead into the deer's chest and stomach.
"Eheheh...Go ahead." Louis kissed the top of his head.
Legosi kept kneading before letting out a slight whine from his throat.
"What's wrong?"
"Lou? Where are you, Lou?" He whined more.
"I am right in front of you, hon." He kissed the tip of his ear.
"I c-can't see...where are you..."
"I am literally right here. Can't you feel me?" He licked him.
Legosi let out a slow breath and his body relaxed. "Mmm...mm..."
"Open your eyes," Louis commanded.
A breath huffed out of the wolf's nose, and his eyes fluttered. He looked up groggily at the deer.
Louis smiled with all the love and affection he could muster. "Good morning."
Legosi smiled back. "G'morning," he whispered. He moved his legs around. "Mmm...comfy."
"What is? Me?"
"Yeah...and the underwear."
"I mean, bare wolf butt is better, but it is nice for sexy times," Louis chuckled.
"Mmm, yeah." Legosi sat up slowly, his fur sticking out every which way like usual. "So...no work for me today...and Ichi hasn't contacted you...what should we do?"
"We give it a few to see if he does and then...I don't know."
"Hmm, have you thought about what your therapy project should be?"
"While I was sleeping? Not particularly."
"Hmm...I think I'll get around to asking Kai to help make that website for the bug shop and I'll help out. That'll be my project." Legosi laid his head back down.
"I figured. You talked about it a few days ago," Louis explained. "That will be good for both of you."
"Yeah, but now I can use it for the project thing! Kind of feels like cheating..."
