A Visit by a Dire Wolf: Day 4

By: Ash Cinder

I woke up at around 11:00 AM, wishing I was waking up next to Eric in the hotel instead of alone in my own bed. I sighed and got out of bed, starting to get dressed, not sure what to do before work, and thinking about how I probably could have had a little fun with Eric this morning before going to work if I'd just stayed the night last night.

"I knew I should have just let him talk me into staying and ignored mom," I mumbled to myself, shuffling my way to the kitchen to make breakfast.

As I toasted myself a poptart, I pulled out my phone to text my boyfriend about what happened last night, as I knew he'd want details.

"So, I got some alone time with Eric last night," I texted, adding a little smirking emoji.

"Oh really?" Jamie replied, adding his own smirking emoji. "What did you two do?"

"Well... I took his red rocket for a ride, if you know what I mean." I replied.

"O_O Oh my!" He answered.

"You're still okay with us having a little fun together right?" I asked. "We won't do it anymore if it makes you uncomfortable."

"No no," he replied, "you two have your fun, just be sure to keep me updated, I want details! Speaking of which, how big is he?"

"Pretty damn big! I was too chicken to try and take his knot, probably would have hurt myself if I tried." I typed.

"Oh wow!" Jamie replied with a flushed emoji at the end.

"Yeah, fuck it was so hot!"

"Isn't he like twice our age too?" Jamie asked with another smirking emoji.

"He sure is, and that made it even hotter!" I boasted.

"Maybe you two could send me some pictures if he's okay with it?" Jamie asked with the winking emoji.

"I'll have to ask." I winked back. "Really wish I could have stayed the night though..."

"Oh?"

"Yeah, my mom kind of guilt tripped me into leaving after he and I had our fun, so I'm at home right now, just waiting to make the commute to work."

"Awww, I'm sorry."

"Yeah, I'm probably not going to see him or Sekke after work today because I promised her I'd come home right after I get off." I vented.

"Oof!"

"Yeah, it sucks, but at least I'll get to see them tomorrow."

"That's good."

"Yeah, and we still have a few days of him being here to have more fun."

"I still can't believe you two boned last night." Jamie typed, with more smirking.

"It just kind of happened, it's hard to resist that dire wolf's flirting. I'm telling you, he's a real charmer!"

"Maybe he and I could meet someday?"

"I know you'd love the way he gets intimate."

"Hehe, how much did you two kiss?"

"A lot, and fuck is he good at it!"

"Hehe," Jamie reacted. "Anyway, I have to get to class now, talk to you after work?"

"Sure!"

I ate breakfast and just killed time before I had to go to work, still wishing I didn't have to go. I just knew I was going to get chewed out by Janet for not coming in yesterday.

I opened my laptop for a bit before I had to go and checked my email, hoping I'd finally have a response about that job interview from a week ago. There was nothing but junk mail and I let out a defeated sigh before closing my laptop and getting my uniform on.

"They're probably just going to leave me hanging without an answer, just like every fucking place I apply to." I groaned, grabbing my keys and making my way out to my car.

I sat in the typical 35 minute traffic, driving to work before finally arriving and spending my usual 5 minutes where I debate myself whether to go in for more abuse or just leave and never come back, but as always I got out of my car and walked inside.

Work was absolutely as torturous as I was expecting, all I wanted to do was get back to hanging out with Eric and Sekke as soon as I could, though I knew I wasn't going to get to hang out with them after work, since I promised my mom I'd come home right after.

Janet was acting like her usual adult self and giving me the silent treatment for leaving her alone at work yesterday. I came back with the cart of supplies we needed to start the day.

"Here's the cart." I said spitefully, bringing it over to Janet.

She promptly took it from me without saying a word.

"Thanks Ash." I muttered in a mocking tone to myself, but just loud enough for her to hear me as she walked away. "Hey, no problem Janet... No, really."

I rolled my eyes and followed her over to the classroom to set more stuff up. We started setting up the projector to show the kids a movie today and I was trying to figure out what plugs went where without having to talk to the ice queen next to me.

"You know it was really busy yesterday." Janet said in her usual passive aggressive fashion.

I remained silent and continued putting the plugs in the outlets.

"Hello?" She asked.

"Oh, I'm sorry, were you talking to me?" I scoffed.

"Really could have used your help yesterday." She said.

"Oh really? Could you have?" I sassed. "Or would you have just rejected it like you always do when I don't read your mind and do it exactly perfect?"

"God, I can't stand you." Janet mumbled.

"Yeah? Well, what a coincidence, I hate you too." I shot back, louder than the tone she used. "So, y'know, at least that's something we can agree on."

"Oh what, you suddenly decide to grow a spine?"

"Yeah, you know what Janet, I don't know what the hell your malfunction is, but if you're going to be this much of a bitch to the people you work with, you're not going to go very far in life. Did it ever occur to you that that's why I didn't show up yesterday, because you constantly treat me like literal shit? I mean, you always glare at me like I just shat in your tea or something!"

"Well, maybe if you did your job the way I do it, I wouldn't get on you all the time for being incompetent!"

"Okay, that's it!" I threw up my paws. "You don't like how I do my job, you can do it by yourself, I'm done!" I grabbed my water bottle sitting on a table. "Every weekday I drive all the way over here to work my ass off for $9 an hour--most of that going towards gas to continue coming back here, walking on eggshells so I don't have to feel your fucking cunt look glaring at me! Well, I'm done being your punching bag every day, cause I don't need your shit, okay? I could be hanging out with people who like me instead of your sorry ass!"

She was completely speechless as I threw a dry eraser at her.

"I hate this job! I hate this goddamn job, and I don't need it!"

Then I looked her right in the eyes, something I never did, and I said,

"Let me tell you something. Outside of work, I drink for a reason..." I jabbed my finger against her chest, "You're the reason, Janet..."

I grabbed my jacket and stormed off before stopping myself and turning back.

"And one more thing." I quickly unscrewed the lid of my water bottle and tossed the contents on her, completely soaking her feathers and clothes. "Oh, that wasn't nearly as satisfying as I imagined, I expected you to melt..." I sneered before storming off.

I got in my car, slammed the door and gave one loud triumphant yell as I immediately stepped on the gas and sped over to Eric's hotel. I seriously just did that, I stood up to Janet and quit my job in the process. Honestly, probably wasn't the smartest thing to do, since now I didn't have a way to earn money, but I couldn't take working with her any longer. I proceeded to blast Rage Against the Machine on my car radio and drove to Eric's hotel.

I pulled into the parking lot and walked into the building, hoping he was there. I knocked on his door and was greeted by the older dire wolf as he opened it with a surprised but happy look on his face.

"Oh hey, did you get off work early or something?" He asked.

"No, uh... I think I just quit my job." I said, scratching the back of my head.

"Oh?"

"Yeah... I kind of yelled at Janet... then sort of tossed the contents of my water bottle on her."

"As you do." Eric joked, giving me a nervous look, letting me come inside.

"I just couldn't take it anymore," I explained, getting a little choked up as I sat on the bed. "Do you know what it's like, going to work every damn day, knowing you're going to get yelled at for some small thing like talking too long to get the damn art supplies! That's been my job, every day for the past year!"

"Hey," Eric said, sitting down next to me and putting his arm around me comfortingly. "I know you just lost your job, and you kind of burned a bridge when you did. But you stood up for yourself, and I say that counts for something."

"Yeah, I guess... But now what am I going to do for money? I'm still paying off my car."

"We'll think of something."

"I can't tell my parents I quit my job like that, I'd never hear the end of it."

"So, don't," He said.

"How am I supposed to keep up the lie that I still work at my old job?" I asked.

"I don't know, drive around your neighborhood looking for places with job openings during the time you'd normally go into work."

"That's not a very good plan, Eric," I said, a bit annoyed.

"Well hey, I'm trying."

He hugged me close and I hugged back.

"I'm really glad you got to visit this week," I said.

Eric rubbed my shoulders.

"How about I help relieve some of that stress?" He asked rather seductively.

"R-Relieve how?"

"How ever you want..." He whispered in my ear.

I felt him gently lick my neck, making me shiver with desire. He was such a charmer, really knew how to get an anthro going. He ran his paws slowly down my arms stroking the brown fur on them. I let out a weak moan as one of his paws drifted under my shirt and began to rub my chest.

I was blushing heavily under my fur, still not used to such an older man, or any man for that matter, touching me so intimately. I leaned back against his body and he used his other paw to turn my head to face him. I looked deeply into those light blue eyes of his, they almost seemed to have an unnatural glow about them. He smiled at me.

"You're still so nervous, after all this time, it's adorable."

He stroked my cheek with his paw while continuing to rub my chest with his other. I rubbed his chest with my two paws and leaned forward, locking muzzles with him. I closed my eyes and enjoyed the kiss, hearing him let out some deep moans and hold me tenderly in his arms.

I let out a small yelp as I felt his paw move down my chest and give my package a playful grope. Frisky old dire wolf, I thought. I squirmed a little and kissed him more passionately, pushing my tongue into his mouth. He got more passionate as well, moving his paw away from my cheek to my back, holding me close to his body and deeper into the kiss, and continuing to play with my crotch.

He broke the kiss and looked at me with a playful smirk while continuing to rub my erect bulge. It felt so strange having it touched by someone other than myself.

"Did I ever tell you you're packing quite a surprise in those pants?" He asked.

"You mentioned it, yeah," I said, blushing even harder.

"Mind if I unwrap it?"

"S-Sure go ahead..."

He turned his full attention to my bulging pants, slowly unzipping them to expose my underwear. He carefully slipped my pants off my legs. I giggled a bit as he dropped them on the floor and turned his attention to the tent I was pitching in my undies. Eric got back on the bed, laying down next to me and putting his arm around me and moving his other paw down into my underwear, grabbing ahold of my shaft, releasing a moan from me.

I could hear the old dire wolf growling a little as he leaned over and gave my neck a nibble while he stroked my cock that was still in my underpants. I moaned as the experienced male got me more and more aroused. He slowly pulled the front of my underpants down so that my apparently above-average-sized red rocket popped out.

He kept stroking it slowly moving himself down towards it, kissing my chest and stomach each time he got closer. I giggled with each kiss he gave until he got to his destination, my erect, red cock in his paw.

He stuck out his tongue and gave the tip a lick. I tensed up as I felt the still unfamiliar sensation of a tongue on my privates. My cock got fully hard at that point, I could feel each vein start to throb.

My fur stood on end as he gave it more licks, my body shook at this new sensation, his wet silky tongue being dragged across my member. Eric moaned as he closed his muzzle around my whole cock, making me gasp.

"Oh my!" I reacted.

Eric just let out a deep chuckle as he started to move his head up and down while he fondled my balls with his paw. I could already feel myself getting close to shooting off in his muzzle, but I didn't want to go off so soon. I panted, looking down at the older dire wolf. Eric looked back at me and let out a growl before gripping my legs tighter and deepthroating me.

"Aaahhh!" I gasped, starting to squirm around on the bed, getting closer. "F-Fuck that feels good."

He smirked up at me, continuing to work his muzzle on my member. I gripped the sheets and panted, humping upwards slightly. I heard him moan when I did that and felt him give my balls a squeeze. Greedy dire wolf was clearly ready for my load, whether I wanted to climax now or not.

He flicked his tongue against the tip again and my fur stood on end. He deepthroated me one last time and I let out a howl as I came into his muzzle, my body shuddering and twitching while it released. Eric let out some moans and happily swallowed all of my load.

He pulled off my cock and gave it one last lick and gave me a sexy grin. I couldn't help but continue to blush when he did. He stood up and crawled back onto the bed, getting over me and looking down at my smaller form. I reached down and stroked my cheek and I let out a small giggle. I still couldn't help but feel so nervous doing all this, especially with the older, much more experienced canine.

He pressed his muzzle against mine in a deep kiss and my heart fluttered. I'd missed this since last night, the feeling of Eric's tongue gently sliding into my mouth and his body being pressed against mine. I closed my eyes and inhaled deeply, taking in the Alpha's intoxicating natural musk.

After a minute he pulled away from me, looking back at me with that warm smile that made me melt on the inside. He wrapped his arms around me and held me close to him, my pants still on the floor. He gently stroked my fur and I closed my eyes and relaxed. At this point, nothing mattered, all my cares melted away, I didn't care about the fact that I'd lost my job anymore, or that I'd lied to my mom all day yesterday. All I cared about was cuddling with the kind and loving dire wolf next to me.

"Is that better?" He whispered.

"A-A little," I admitted.

I then eyed the bathroom behind him and got a sexy idea...

"But... maybe it's just me, but I think I can still smell the stink of work on me... maybe I could use a shower?"

I watched his face light up at what I was suggesting.

"Do you think you need any help with that?" He asked, sliding a finger down my body.

"I think I'm going to need a deep cleaning," I said with a smirk.

"Well, better get the rest of these clothes off then."

He grabbed my jeans and underwear that were already halfway off and pulled them off my legs while I pulled my shirt over my head. Once I was nude he began unzipping his pants.

"My turn."

He slowly strips for me, starting with his shirt, unbuttoning it and letting it fall to the floor. Then he unbuckled his belt and unzipping his pants, standing there now in nothing but his underwear.

I got up and got in front of him, giving him a long kiss on the muzzle as I reached down and pulled down his briefs.

"Shall we head in?" He asked.

"Let's."

We both walked into the hotel bathroom and he turned on the shower, checking the temperature to make sure it was just right.

"After you," he said, ushering me inside.

Once we were both in, we started getting nice and wet, letting the warm water run down our furry bodies. I felt Eric wrap his arms around me as I took the shampoo and lick my neck, making me blush. He was very good at making me do that.

He took the bottle from me and began running his fingers through my chest fur, growling gently.

As he lathered my fur, I wiggled my butt and he promptly groped it.

"I'm glad I'm getting access to that tight hole again sooner that I thought I would," He said with a growl, making me shiver. "I mean, if you are offering it?"

"If?" I asked, wiggling it again.

He gave it a quick smack, making me jump.

"Just making sure, but if I give you the 'deep cleaning' you want... will you return the favor afterwards?" He asked, giving me a view of his ass.

I felt my face get hot, I'd never topped before, never even thought about it, could I do it? Didn't the older guy usually top and the younger one bottoms?

"I mean... I could give it a try?" I said shyly.

"Sorry," he patted my shoulder, "I just really want to feel that monster of yours inside me."

"Not before I feel yours inside me again..." I replied, leaning forward against the wall and lifting my tail.

He got behind me and rubbed my butt again.

"Let's get that tailhole nice and clean..."

I felt him kneel down, spread my cheeks and drag his long tongue across my entrance, making me moan.

"Mmmm, never new I'd love the taste of coywolf so much..." He said in a devious tone.

I let out a series of moans as his long tongue wormed its way inside me. I could barely hold still while he pushed his tongue as far as it could go. He gripped my legs tightly so that I wouldn't fall. I tried not to moan too loud, not wanting to risk someone in the hotel hearing and complaining, I'd embarrassed myself enough for today.

Once I was nice and slick for him, he stood up and gripped my hips.

"You ready?"

"Yes Daddy..." I said practically without thinking.

"'Daddy' huh?" He chuckled.

Then I felt him slowly push that massive dire wolf cock inside me, making my body shudder. He kept one paw on my hip and moved the other up my chest, pushing the rest of his member inside me stopping just as the knot began.

My body shook with pleasure as I focused on the warm water running down our bodies and the massive organ inside me. I heard him chuckle deeply and nip at my neck.

"How does it feel?" He asked.

I shivered more as I heard the smirk in his voice.

"B-Big..."

"Not in any pain?"

"Just a little, but it's going away, just like last night..." I said in between pants.

"Good," he said, running his paws up and down my body.

He continued to tease me and lick the side of my neck while I got accustomed to his size again. I let out a moan as he slowly pulled it out a little only to slowly push back in a few seconds later. I felt my arms shake a little as I tried to hold myself up against the wall. I heard him chuckle.

"Sorry, just making sure you're nice and slick inside," He said.

"It's okay," I panted, "it felt good."

"Want me to start thrusting now?" He asked, giving my hear a playful bite.

I nodded.

"Alright, just like last night, tell me if you're feeling discomfort and I'll stop."

"Okay..."

With that be began slowly withdrawing his cock and I let out a deep sigh only to gasp once he shoved it back in. He got a nice and easy rhythm going, gripping my hips and while he moved in and out, the warm water still running down both of our bodies.

I looked down and watched my own erect cock bob up and down while the older dire wolf began to breed me. I still couldn't believe I was doing so much with Eric. I hadn't planned or anticipated his visit to go like this, but I wasn't complaining, I was living out so many fantasies with him and learning so much about pleasure from such an amazing teacher.

After fucking me slowly for a little while, Eric removed his paws from my hips and put them both against my own paws on the wall, interlocking with my fingers before humping me even harder, letting out some very sexy dominant growls as he did so.

"Oh god," I moaned, "Oh Eric..."

"You good?" He asked, putting his head on my shoulder.

"Yes, I'm great, give me more!" I begged.

He happily obliged, slamming his hips against mine, careful not to shove the knot in, I definitely wasn't ready for that yet. It got harder and harder to keep myself held up with my paws with each powerful thrust that rocked my body. Eventually I couldn't hold myself up and Eric pressed my body up against the shower wall, his fingers still interlocked with mine

He panted in my ear, his thrusts practically lifting me off the floor of the shower each time. He'd started hitting my pleasure spot now, making my eyes roll back in my head. He gripped my paws tighter and nibbled my left ear.

"Are you ready to be filled, pup?" He growled lustfully in my ear.

"Mmhmm..." I weakly choked out.

With that he sank his teeth into my shoulder, gave five more powerful thrusts, before going in as deep as he could without knotting me and filling me with that virile dire wolf seed once again. My vision went cross-eyed and my mouth opened up into a silent cry of pleasure as I focused on everything I was experiencing; the water running down my body, soaking my fur, Eric's teeth in my shoulder, his pulsating cock continuing to fill me. I never knew just how magical sex in the shower could be.

We both stood there, panting while his orgasm continued. He released my shoulder and licked it tenderly.

"Didn't get too rough, did I?" He asked.

"N-No, that was... fucking amazing..." I said, my body still trembling.

"Think you can stand straight long enough to return the favor?" He asked, licking my ear.

"I mean I could try... I've never topped before..."

"You don't have to be perfect on your first try."

He let go of me and let his cock slide out of my entrance, making me gasp at the sudden evacuation. My legs wiggled a bit, but I was able to stand and turned to see him at the other shower wall, looking back at me and presenting his tailhole to me. I giggled in blushed, it was a bit strange seeing him subbing for me, with me mostly seeing his dommy side the past few days, but I was still hard, nonetheless.

I got into position and pressed the tip of my cock against his entrance, his body shuddering slightly and his tail wagging.

"I hope I can handle this?" I said with a nervous laugh.

He looked at me over his shoulder.

"Shouldn't I be the one saying that in this position?"

I laughed and gripped his hips, slowly pushing my member against his hole, he let out a moan and I continued to try and penetrate him. I breathed heavily as I concentrated on what I was doing, getting excited domming for the first time as I pushed more and more into him. I watched my dick slowly disappear inside of him and moaned.

"Did it go in?" I heard him say.

I stopped and looked down again, realizing it had just went between his cheeks but missed his hole entirely. My face heated up in slight embarrassment.

"It's okay," he reassured, "it's your first time, just try again."

I pulled back and tried pushing in again, but it just went in between his cheeks again. I started to get frustrated, each time I tried to push in, it would just slip in between his cheeks and I'd end up hotdogging it. I just couldn't do it, and the more I tried, my dick just started to get flaccid.

"Are you having a hard time?" He said, not as mockingly as you might think.

"I'm sorry," I said disappointedly.

He just chuckled and turned around, putting his paw on my shoulder.

"It's okay, you don't have to be perfect your first time doing anything," He said comfortingly, giving me a quick kiss on the muzzle.

I blushed more and looked up at him, he really was a great friend, so fatherly and caring.

"Maybe we can try again tomorrow?" He added with a wink.

I giggled before wrapping my arms around him and pressing my muzzle against his again in a much longer kiss. He held me close as we made out, the warm water still running down our bodies, somehow still warm. Eventually we broke the kiss and smiled at each other.

"Now we should probably actually get clean before we use up all the hotel's hot water." He said, giving my nose a boop.

We spent another fifteen minutes or so getting clean, making sure to give each other more sensual rubbing as we lathered our fur. Once we were done, we dried off before moving back to the bed and cuddling together, still naked. He nuzzled the top of my head while I used his chest as a pillow.

We may have ended up taking a small nap together because the next time I looked at the clock it was already 5:40 PM.

"So, what should we do the rest of the day?" He asked, stroking the now nearly dry fur on my back. "Anywhere special you want to have dinner tonight?"

"Actually, it's getting close to the time I need to be getting home."

"You're going home today?" He asked, sounding disappointed.

"Just for tonight," I explained. "I just don't want my parents to worry anymore, it'd be one thing if I didn't still live with them, but I've never stayed out overnight like that. They just... miss me, you know. You're a dad, you understand that, right?"

"Hm, yeah..." He admitted.

"Besides, I've got a suggestion for what we could do tomorrow," I said, feeling around the inside pocket of my vest for what I brought with me. "You, me, and Sekke."

"Oh?" He asked with a smile. "And what would that be?"

I pulled out the coupons I brought and showed them to him.

"I won these a few days ago, when Sona took me to see a burlesque show. Haven't visited the store yet."

He held the coupons in his paws and a grin spread across his face.

"I think that's a lovely idea."

"You do?"

"Yes, didn't you tell me once that you liked leashes?" He asked with a smirk.

"W-Well... I did look on their website," I said, blushing hard under my fur, "and they had a pretty good looking one for sale."

"Well, it looks like we have a reason to go then," He said, patting my head playfully. "Gotta get my pup a leash, right?"

I blushed even harder when he said that, I just loved being referred to as "pup", especially if it was by someone much older than me.

Eric looked behind me at my wagging tail.

"I think he likes that." He teased, playing with it a little.

"I do..." I said, blushing again before getting up. "Well I'm glad I got to spend more time with you today instead of being miserable at my now former job, but I should get going now, it's already almost 6:00 and that's when I usually get off work."

"See you tomorrow?"

"Yeah," I said, bending down and giving him a quick kiss on the muzzle.

I got my clothes up off the floor and put them on, but as I turned to walk away I let out an excited yelp as I felt him sneak one last slap on my ass.

I glanced back at him with a playfully annoyed look while he sat there looking all innocent.

"See you tomorrow Daddy,"

I walked in my front door, looking absolutely miserable, the gravity of my current unemployment finally hitting me on the way home.

"Hey, how was work?" Mom asked.

"Great," I said sarcastically.

"The Twat still giving you a hard time?" She asked, picking up on it.

"You don't know the half of it," I said, walking into my room. "Really could have used an evening with my friends to make it all better, but whatever," I said, guilt tripping her a bit.

My mom let out a sigh as I took off my uniform and started changing into some regular clothes. Then once I finished, she looked me in the eyes and put her paw on my shoulder.

"Look Ashes," She started.

"I keep telling you to call me Ash..." I muttered, rolling my eyes.

"I know you had a rough day and probably really wanted to go hangout with these friends of yours who you've been seeing the past few days..."

"Yeah, yeah..." I said, ready to blow off whatever she was about to tell me.

"But I want you to know, I appreciate you keeping your promise to me and coming home for today. I know you're 24 now and are responsible, but... I'm your mom and I just miss you sometimes."

She gave me a quick hug and I instantly felt like a real dick, especially when I'd lied to her and told her I went to work yesterday, and she didn't even know about my mental breakdown at my now former job today.

"Ah mom, you don't need to worry about me," I said. "It's not like I wasn't ever coming home, going off and running away or something."

"I know, but I can't help it," She kissed me on the cheek, "you're my only pup, barely out of college now."

"Yeah..." I said.

"I know hanging out with these friends of yours means a lot to you, so I wanted you to know, you can hang out with them the rest of the week."

My ears perked up when she said that.

"Wait, what?" I asked.

"You can go see them after work if you want, and if you need to, you can stay over at their hotel room, just be sure you text us if you do."

"You mean it?"

"And don't forget to take your phone charger with you this time." She pointed her finger at me.

"I-I won't." I laughed.

"Good."

I couldn't believe she was going to let me go out and have fun. This was the complete opposite of what I thought I was going to get from her when I finally saw her again after not coming home for 2 days. I started to feel bad keeping some of my secrets from her now... maybe I should tell her what happened at work?

"Uh, mom..." I blurted out, right before she was about to walk out.

"Yeah?"

"Uh... you should know..." I started to say, "something happened at work."

"What?" She asked, her tone having a mixture of concern and suspicion in it.

"I... I finally stood up to Janet!" I said.

"Huh?"

"I did," I said a bit proudly, "Yeah, uh, I finally let her have it for the way she's treated me this past year."

"Well that's good, you stood up for yourself," Mom said, hugging me. "You didn't say anything you might regret later, did you?"

"Uh, nope," I said.

"Well, good," She said, "I hope the way she treats you changes because of it."

"It probably won't."

"Well, fuck her then," She said, leaving me alone in my room to go finish making dinner.

"Way ahead of you mom..." I said.

Okay, while I only told half the truth, I technically wasn't lying to her. I did in fact stand up for myself that day, I was just a bit overzealous with how I did it. And honestly, I wasn't even lying about saying I probably wouldn't regret it. I didn't even care I didn't have a job anymore... I mean, I did care that I didn't have any form of income now and was still paying off my car. But that job wasn't worth the $9 an hour I made off it.

I decided to check my email for anything on that job I'd been interviewed for, or any others I'd applied for... nothing. My heart sank... well, I guess I could always try working at the movie theater again, at least the people there were nice to me before I quit.
