Red and Blake Ch. 10

By: WolfieSteel and Sweet Kitten

After handing my car keys to the parking valet I begin to head into the restaurant, just before I head in through the door I notice that the glass frontage of the restaurant is mirrored and so I stop just to make doubly sure that everything was in order, after all first impressions matter.

With my cursory check complete I head into the restaurant and I begin to scan the lobby for any signs of Red, it is then that I see my fox standing and waiting for me, he looks so gorgeous and also so nervous too, I straighten my white button down shirt, and my black tie and then I adjust the crotch of my black dress pants and then I make my way towards the sparkling fox.

I smile weakly and yes if I am being honest here Red is not the only nervous one, I try to come up with something smooth to say, but my normally confident vocabulary fails me.

"Hey Red you look so...swee...I mean sex...I mean nice, and this place is a real nice place"

Damn it all to hell Blake, get a frigging hold of yourself, you _'__ re acting like you haven ' t met the guy before._

"Sorry Red I guess I am just a little bit nervous"

Red smiles knowingly at me and then leads me to the table, this gives me the chance to check the fox out a little, he has the sweetest of butts that a guy could ever wish to pound, and that is when he is walking, it wiggles just nicely, god help me if he ever has to bend down to tie his shoes, I just know that my raging junior dobie will not be able to control himself.

As we arrive at the table I see a larger male fox looking even hunkier than his son, something that I didn't think was possible, I begin to present my hand paw to the larger fox when I realize that I have a sweaty paw, damn these nerves.

The larger fox stands from his seat and takes my offered hand paw in his, I hear him give a little chuckle as we complete the paw shake.

"Hello there Mister Matthews, my name is Blake Winters, it is an honour to meet you sir, and I would like to thank both you and Re... I mean Alexander for the dinner invitation, it is indeed nice to know that I am starting to be accepted over here in the states as to use the name of the song by Sting, I am an Englishman in New York"

The fox releases my paw and then motions for me to take a seat at the table; I move to the offered seat and realize that I am going to be sitting next to Red, my ears then perk as Red's father begins to speak.

"Relax Mister Winters, trust me I know a nervous paw shake when I get one, sweaty hand paws are a dead give away, but in truth there really is no need to be nervous, I know that you have only been tutoring Red for a short while, but he has told me a bit about you, all good I assure you. As I am sure that you know, to be a tutor you are going to have to be trusted by both your charges and by their parents. You do have a bit of a head start in that area though, Chester Wilson is a huge friend of the family, and he is a good judge of character, and so if you have managed to step into his boots then there is already quite a bit of trust there, and you seem pretty cool too"

Well I guess you can say that speech was a double edged sword, on one paw I'm pretty sure that Mister Matthews may have been making some sort of play for me, and on the other paw he is also telling me that I have to be sure not to hurt any members of his family, and with the muscles that this guy seems to be packing this dobie is going to be one that does as he is told.

I'm pretty sure that Red has also seen the interlaced meanings behind his father's speech as there is a small growl that leaves his muzzle, something that he probably believes that no one else has heard.

To try and change the mood a little I pick up the menu and begin to scan through the choices.

"I think I will just have whatever you guys are having"

The meals are ordered along with the drinks, once our meals and drinks arrive we begin to tuck in, after a few moments Mister Matthews begins a little small talk.

"So Blake, what makes you think that you can help my son get better grades in his computer class, I mean let's face it, Chester was a damn good teacher and yet Red's grades were shall we say nothing to write home about"

' __Oh crap now you have put me on the spot, I know the answer but I' __m fearful of telling him just in case he takes it the wrong way'

I sit there for a moment and consider my answer, I guess there is no other way to sugar coat things any more.

"Well Mister Matthews, forgive me for saying this because I know how close Mister Wilson is to you and Red, but computers are really the realm of the younger generation, now please don't growl at me for being ageist because that is not my intention, remember I spent quite a while with Mister Wilson and as you say he is an incredible tutor, but these days the students need a more interesting approach so that it will keep their minds occupied"

I take another bite of my food and I am just getting ready to swallow when Mister Matthews plays his trump card.

"So when you were teasing my son in a...inventive manner that was all you were doing, just keeping things interesting huh?"

I begin to choke on the piece of meat that I was swallowing; fortunately Red gives me a sharp slap to the back which helps me to clear the blockage. I finish swallowing my food and I look up to the elder foxes eyes, I can see the feint outlines of a smile on his muzzle.

"Don't worry Blake; I am fine with it just as long as you are both careful, to be honest when Red told me about you he almost had to fight me for you"

I watched out of the corner of my eye as Red begins to squirm from embarrassment.

"Dad please!"

I blush heavily under my dark fur while Red's dad just lets out a huge guffaw of laughter, some of the other patrons look towards our table with looks of mild annoyance on their faces, and Mister Matthews slowly brings his laughter under control.

"Sorry guys, I just couldn't help myself"

Just as we are finishing off our meals Mister Matthews'phone bleeps to say that he has had a text message, he checks his message and then frowns a little, this to me can only mean that the evening is about to be cut short unexpectedly, the thought flows through my mind that it could just be a setup, but the look on his face says that it is genuine.

"Guys, I'm afraid that I am going to have to cut our dinner short as I have just received word that one of my clients has got some sort of wedding dress emergency and needs me to go to see if I can fix things, that's the thing about working for yourself as a wedding dress maker for the stars, you have to be on call 24/7, but I enjoyed tonight immensely, and we will have to do it again sometime"

Mister Matthews stands from his seat and then leans down and kisses his son on the muzzle while handing him the money to pay for the meal.

"Now then Red, once you have paid the bill here, I want you to go home and get an early night, I have put you some clean PJ's on top of your pillow, and don't forget to wash behind your ears, clean your teeth, and brush your fur before bed"

The fox then turns his attention to me.

"Well Blake, it was nice to meet you, and hopefully I will see you again soon"

With that he rushes out from the restaurant at a great rate of speed, I turn to face the heavily blushing features of Red and it is then that I realize that Red has no way of getting home after the meal, and so I guess that means that I will be taking him home tonight.

Who knows where that could possibly lead?
