Wolverines

“Hi, babe.” Nancy looked up from where she was stirring the pasta sauce and grinned at the flushed look on Hunter’s face. She knew that look anywhere, “Didn’t hear me come in?”

“Ah, no.” Hunter grinned sheepishly and ran a hand through his hair. He stepped behind her and kissed the top of her head, “How was work?”

“Good. Long. Less drama than usual today, which was nice… Did you do any job hunting?” She leaned forward to take a taste of the sauce. A quick look told Hunter the spaghetti had already been put into the colander and was draining in the sink. “Mm.”

“Yeah, applied to some stuff online.” He tasted the sauce from the spoon she offered and hugged her, smiling when she rested back against him.

“Is the sauce really that good, or are you just happy to see me?” Nancy teased, feeling Hunter’s slight erection. Her grin widened at the somewhat nervous laugh that elicited. “Amon have his supper?”

“Ah, well…”

“Sweet, you took the noodles off.” Amon wandered back in to the kitchen and checked out the draining spaghetti, “I think it’ll be a little soggy.”

“Oh! Amon I cut you a key, it’s in my purse in the other room.” Nancy smiled over her shoulder at the Vampire.

“Thanks, Nancy.” He stretched, and Nancy smiled at the muscles rippling across his back.

“Sooo.” She drawled, “You two have fun while Ben and I were gone?” She was glad she looked up in time to see Hunter’s face flame up.

“Oh yeah, I had breakfast when you left… I think it’s supper time in a few more hours.” He nipped at the back of Hunter’s neck before going to put on more coffee.

Nancy grinned when she felt Hunter jump, and his erection grew more prominent, “Do I get to watch this time?”

Amon glanced at her and raised his eyebrows before his face split into a wide grin, “Sure. I don’t mind putting on a show for yah… How do you want him? I can pin him down for you and make him squeal-“ Besides, Amon figured he could get more action out of Hunter if he was having fun putting on a show for his girlfriend.

“Amon!” Hunter hissed.

Nancy laughed, “I’m holding you to that, you know. You said you could make him squeal, so I expect to hear it…”

“Nancy!”

Amon snickered and poured the coffee grinds into the fresh filter, “You know me, I live to serve…”

“That’s a good one.” Hunter said dryly, “I’m not letting you pin me down anywhere until you apologize to Ben though.”

Amon frowned, but Nancy’s interest was piqued, “Apologize to Ben? What for?” She glanced at the Vampire as she grabbed the parmesan from the fridge.

Amon frowned at Hunter, “I don’t have to say sorry to Ben…”

“Yes, you do.” Hunter turned to Nancy, “I guess Amon failed to tell us that he’s having some weird possessive Vampire reaction to the Bond. So basically he’s been going a little whacky about Ben being so close to me…”

“Aww, you were mean to Ben? Don’t be mean to Ben, he’s such a sweetie. Anyways I don’t know why you’re worried, they’re like brothers… If they were fooling around, believe me, I’d know by now.” Nancy smiled, though she wasn’t exactly thrilled about the news.

Amon’s only response was to grunt and scratch at his jaw.

Nancy’s grin widened, “Just like I know you two’ve been fooling around… Only made out a little!” She gave Hunter a mock accusatory look before playfully punching Amon in the stomach, “You been kissing my man?”

Amon grinned, “A little.”

“Well, he won’t be again until he says sorry to Ben…” Hunter said pointedly and grabbed some bowls from the cupboard.

“Hunter-“

“Amon,” Hunter interrupted, “Go on… Or I’ll make you do it while I watch…”

“Hunter,”

“Just do it and we can all get on with our day. Go on.” He nudged the Vampire in the stomach. Amon reluctantly wandered down the hall. “I threw his clothes in with some of our stuff, by the way.” He turned back to Nancy.

“Oh no worries, I figured you had. We needed more clean stuff anyways… Did Amon cook all this, too?” She started putting some pasta in a bowl.

“Yeah he’s been bored so he’s been cooking and cleaning.”

“I guess having him here’s not so bad…” Nancy grinned.

“Well… That remains to be seen.”

Ben looked up from his computer when his bedroom door opened without a warning knock.

“… What do you want?” He glared up at the scowling Vampire. Amon walked into the bedroom without invitation and closed the door behind him, “I never said you could come in.”

“Oh, shut up, Ben. I’m supposed to be apologizing. So if Hunter asks, I did.” He gave the human a withering look.

Ben snorted and pointedly turned back to his laptop, “I don’t see how I owe you any favours.”

“Look,” Amon took a few steps closer, then glared when he saw what Ben was looking at on the internet, “What are you doing?”

“Oh, you know. Just playing around online. It’s amazing the kind of stuff you can dig up. Like how you went to the same junior high as Hunter. Interesting little coincidence. Oh, and here’s a cute tidbit too. Bassam Hajjar, father of missing person Amon Hajjar was murdered not that long ago.” Ben spun around in his computer chair, “You kill him?”

Amon snorted, “Of course not.”

“Right, because you’re suuuch a nice person, I obviously believe you.” Ben drawled. “You daddy’s spine got snapped, not far from where you used to live… Shitty neighbourhood, and they have no leads… Maybe I should call.”

“Benjamin…”

“You know, just to let them know where their precious little Amon got to. I’m sure your mummy would love to know-“

“Don’t you ever mention my parents again, Benjamin. Hunter would be devastated if anything were to happen to you.” Amon shifted his weight back and stared coolly down at the meddling human.

“Are you threatening me again? Because that went so well last time.” Ben stood up slowly, “This is our world you jumped into Amon, not yours. You don’t make all the rules here. In fact, you’re kind of at our mercy, the way I see it. All I have to do is open the curtains and you’re fucked.”

“Now how’s making threats?” Amon watched the human, a little wariness in his gaze, “You think you’re the only one that can play games?”

“No, I’m well aware you’re a manipulative mother fucker. I don’t give a shit what you think.” Ben stepped up to the Vampire until they were touching almost chest-to-chest. Ben was shorter than some of the girls he knew (including Nancy) but he rarely felt tiny. This was one of the times that he did.

“You think you have a place here just because you can get Hunter off? Newflash: He’s a 22 year old guy, sitting on a washing machine can probably get him off. You think you can keep treating me like garbage because you want Hunter all to yourself? Well you can fuck off and die, because he’s my friend. And no one, and I mean no one, comes between me and my friends.” Ben poked the Vampire in the chest to emphasize his point. He resisted the urge to stand up on his tippy toes so he felt less small.

Amon stared down at the human, then grinned. “You’re defying me?” He laughed, then grabbed Ben’s chin in his hand. “You’re kind of cute when you’re not doing your “skittish puppy dog thing”, you know…”

“I do not do a “skittish puppy dog thing”!” Ben squirmed in Amon’s grip, “Let go!”

“Why don’t you use your fancy little internet box over there and make me? Hm?” He grabbed Ben by the wrist too for good measure. He inhaled quietly. This wasn’t the first time he’d smelled lust on the human when he was around him.

“Quit it!” Ben squirmed. He wasn’t, Amon noticed, nearly as intense a struggler as Hunter was when he wanted to be let go.

“It’s okay, Ben, I know what this is really about anyways. You know if you wanted my attention, all you had to do was say so.” He leered, “My attentions are mostly for Hunter, that’s true, but we’re not a couple and he doesn’t put out, so…”

“You’re disgusting! Get off!” Ben smacked at him tried yanking his arm off his jaw.

“Well I will be… Later. With Hunter and Nancy. Jealous?” Amon’s grin widened.

“No, I am not jealous, you creep!”

“No? How come you smell all hornied out every time I’m around, huh?” Amon buried his face in Ben’s neck, feeling a stab of satisfaction when the human’s arousal spiked, “Do your roomies know you’re totally gay for me?”

Ben shivered against his will in the Vampire’s grip. He would have lied, but the Vampire could obviously smell it. “Well, it doesn’t matter anyways, because even if you were the last um – unliving – thing on the planet I would so never go there. Let go! I’ll yell for Hunter and Nancy, you know…”

“Ohh, there you go doing that spineless thing again. Okay. Here’s the deal. You keep your information to yourself, that’s not anyone else’s business… And I won’t tell your beloved friends you’re gay. I’m guessing they don’t know?” Amon grinned. He wasn’t so blinded by pride that he thought Ben being turned on by him automatically made him gay. It had more to do with the copious amounts of gay porn he’d found on Ben’s computer this morning when Hunter was job hunting in the other room.

That, and when he’d made a purposefully snide comment about it to Hunter before he’d started dinner the human had laughed in his face, and then proceeded to tell him about Ben’s various girlfriends over the years.

“I’m not ga-“

“Don’t bother lying to me, Ben…”

Ben glared at him, “… Fine. No, they don’t know.”

“Why not? You three are ohhh soo close…”

“Stop it-“

“Nothing gets in the middle of you and your friends-“

“Stop!” Ben hissed. “Fine. Apology accepted, okay? If Hunter asks, we made nice. Get out.” He grumbled.

“Good.” Amon grinned and pecked Ben on the cheek, “Stop researching me. It’s irritating.”

Ben folded his arms defiantly and looked away. He yelped when Amon slapped his butt on his way out the door.

“Asshole.” He muttered when the Vampire left.
