The simple life
I slowly opened my eyes and looked about, I was still in the kennel, Arctic was still on the bed, me and John where still on the floor but someone had lovingly laid a blanket over us all. I shuffled out of the blanket and stood up, a sudden cold nipping at me. I looked outside and everything was white, I stepped out of the house, the snow made a light crunching noise as I walked across it, leaving paw prints that followed me everywhere I went.
I smiled and laid down in the middle of the garden and rolled about in the snow for a bit. When I eventually got up and shook the snow off of my coat I noticed a rather amused looking Arctic watching me. "um... Arctic... hi..."
she giggled and wandered towards me "hey Caesar... having fun?"
I nodded my head and laid down in the snow again, I looked up at the cloudless sky and smiled, I had a really good feeling that today Was going to be a good day "how are you this morning Arctic?"
"I'm alright... a little cold... but I'll live.."
I smiled and stood up. I could seize this as a chance to woo her... "I can help you keep warm..." that was the only thing I could say... the more I thought about it the more it sounded really stupid...
"oh yeah? And how do you plan to do that?" she walked up to me and rubbed against my side.
"well... I think I'm doing pretty well as it is."
she licked my face... I wasn't sure if she was teasing me or actually showing me affection. I hoped it was the latter... I really did. "you are pretty warm Caesar."
"I licked her face "I know a game that will keep you very warm..."
"oh yeah? It wouldn't happen to be called... sex would it?"
I smiled "how did you guess?"
"oh Caesar, you horn dog."
"you haven't said no... does that mean it's a yes?"
"I'm not saying anything right now."
I smiled. that was better than a no any day. John stepped outside and looked at us "hey guys... it's a bit chilly out here.. isn't it?"
"yeah." Arctic nuzzled me again.
I stared longingly into her eyes as she looked into my eyes. She giggled as a flake of snow landed on her nose. I smiled and licked it off. Unfortunately the mood was destroyed and ground into the snow by the sudden cry of "snow!" And a young girl flinging herself at me and Arctic, mercilessly hugging us.
"Hello Arctic! Hello John! Hello... hello... puppy!" puppy? She didn't know my name... I licked her face nonetheless "now, I want you three to behave. I have a friend coming round soon, he's bringing one of his dogs. I want you to play nice."
Arctic turned to me and smiled as jess wandered off "her friend's dog, brad is just about as gay as they come. But he's a perfectly nice guy. Heh... maybe we can hook John up."
I looked at John and laughed "I'm not so sure... John likes a good girl..."
John grinned "eh. I reckon we should get you laid Caesar... it still sounds weird... can't I call you your real name?"
"no. my old name sucked. This name is so much better!"
"i don't know... I liked your old name."
"what was his old name? Can you tell me?" Arctic looked at John pleadingly "he never told me!"
John smiled and whispered in her ear. "really? That's a nice name."
"no... it's really not." I muttered
"what's really not?" I turned around and saw a snow white malamute walking towards us
"hey Arctic. Who are these guys? Are they your new 'playmates'?"
"it's not like that brad!"
"of course it's not..." he gave Arctic's face a quick lick "how are you Hun?"
"I'm fine thanks. How are you and James?"
"we're good. I still haven't found the right guy yet."
"have you met John and Caesar yet? I'm sure one of them would make a great mate."
"Bradley, John and Caesar... John and Caesar, Bradley."
Brad the malamute walked forwards and licked my cheek "hey there. It's a pleasure to meet you."
I blushed as I looked up at him. God he was tall! "s..same."
brad then licked john's cheek "hello... I... I..."
Arctic looked at brad "you okay brad? A bit... ooh... what's the word I'm looking for?... lovestruck?"
"w...what? No! It's just..." he stuttered "y...you're really handsome..." he muttered to John "so... bit of a... personal question... but are you into... males?"
"well... I don't really know..." John was really embarrassed.
Brad's confident smile returned "well... a bit of harmless experimentation never hurt anyone. Come on John! Is it alright if we borrow your little house Arctic?"
"go on then. Just try and clear up whatever mess you make." me and Arctic laughed as brad led John into the little house. John's whimpers and brad's enthusiastic barks made me smile.
"poor John. I almost feel sorry for him."
Arctic laughed "don't worry. He'll be fine. Brad will take very good care of him."
I sniggered slightly "oh will he now?"
"he will. I'll be honest with you Caesar... I was with brad before he started appreciating other males... I couldn't blame him for wanting some dog meat in him... it's one of the best feelings in the world. I reckon you'd enjoy it."
"oh really?"
"yes. And If we asked brad nicely I'm sure he'd fill you. He has the biggest dick in the world, I swear!"
"well, good for brad." I sat down and looked at the little house
"you're not jealous are you?" Arctic teased
"of brad? No way! He's just tall, handsome and has a big dick... okay maybe slightly."
"I knew it. It's okay though Caesar. 'cause I think you're fine just the way you are. I wouldn't change anything about you."
I blushed slightly before licking her face "thank you... you don't know how much that means to me."
"no problems my little wolfy." a smile slowly spread across her face "do you want to play a game Caesar?"
"I guess so. What game did you have in mind?"
"don't worry. You'll enjoy it." I yipped as she licked my sheath. "tag Caesar." She ran off holding her tail high, letting me get a good look at her private parts.
I smiled and ran after her. Every time I got closer to her the aroma from her female parts made me excited, wanting her more. "I'm going to get you Arctic!"
she laughed "I don't think so. I'm way faster than you... but I may let you catch me..." she ran on leaving paw prints in the snow. I looked at them all and smiled even her paw prints were beautiful.
My tongue lolled out as I started to catch up with her. She looked back and smiled before dropping to the floor and rolling "oh dear! I fell!"
I sniggered as I walked up to her and licked her muzzle. "enjoy your trip love?" I started licking her down her body,
she murred as I ran my tongue over her nipples. "Caesar! That feels so nice!"
I smiled and looked up I laid down next to her and nuzzled her neck gently, I didn't have a care in the world, I could lay there with Arctic forever. I felt so safe.
And so from that moment on I had a perfect life. I was with the mate of my dreams. I watched jess grow up. Brad and John got together. It was perfect... until one fateful day when I woke up and Arctic didn't.
"good morning Arctic!" when I didn't get a reply I rolled over and nudged her playfully. "come on sleepy head! Wake up!" when she still didn't move the smile slowly disappeared "Arctic?" she didn't even give me a little growl telling me that she wanted to sleep for a while longer... she just laid there... perfectly still... "please Arctic... wake up... please!"
John rested his head on my shoulder and whispered gently in my ear "you knew this day would come... nothing lasts forever. She had a good run... and now she can rest... I'm sorry."
I closed my eyes and howled into the cold wind.
They say dogs know when they are about to die. I didn't have to wait long until I joined arctic. One night, I knew I was ready. I wasn't afraid. I just curled up and slept. And that was that.
