Luke’s adventure, Part 2: The pup disaster.
Previously:
Luke and Maple after being mates for a whole week where walking down the street, but Maple did not seem her usual self, she wasn’t talking that much, and she just seemed to be in her own world. “Maple, are you alright?” He asked nuzzling her. She shook her head than nodded slightly. “Kinda.” She said walking on before getting pushed into an empty Alley. “What’s wrong?” He asked. “Nothing.” She responded. “Yes there is now tell me!” He demanded. “I’m pregnant!” She screamed lowering her head. “You’re going to be a dad.” She said starting to cry. “What? What? What?” He asked. She looked up at him crying. “Wot!”
-----------------------------------------------------------------
“I’m Pregnant!” She repeated. This was bad news for Luke; he knew he mated with her; however, he had no means to get her pregnant… This soon. He bit his lip and turned his head away. “Oh…” He said trying to re-take it all in, this was shocking; he was going to be a dad! However, he felt something weird about this… Like he knew they where not his pups, or simply not there. “Are you sure?” He asked.
“Yes, the doctor confirmed; 6...” She lowered her head. “Luke, I’m sorry, I never meant it to…” She said before being cut out by him. “No. It’s okay.” He said giving her a nuzzle. “It’s just… Different… But in a good way.” He took a deep breath and walked past her. “Come on soon-to-be-fatty” He chuckled before jumping out of the way of a glass bottle she kicked at him for that comment. “Hey! I said soon-to-be!” He chuckled walking on with her to his house.
“Luke!” Yelled Stace running. “Where have you been?” She asked.
“Here, there, everywhere?”
“Like normal I assume,” She mumbled.
Maple rolled her eyes. “Are you like this every time?” She asked. Luke and Stace grinned and looked at her. “Yes.”. “Oh.” She said. “Weird…” She looked away shortly. “Like you?” Luke added with a grin. “You know what Luke… I’m going to kill you.” She said.
“You probably would as well.” He mumbled.
“Hey!” His mother said pushing him to the ground.
“What was that for?” He growled.
“Don’t be rude Luke.” Maple said. “Anyway, Miss; Luke has something he would like to tell you, don’t you Luke?”
Luke’s jaw dropped. “Why me, I’m not the one who is a new and inproved people carrier.”
“Wait!” Stace screamed. “Luke, what is going on?” She asked.
“Um…”
“What is going on!” She demanded.
“Mum, Maple is pregnant… With my pups.” He said lowering his head.
Stace looked at him for a second before nodding. “Ok.” She said going back into the house disturbed upon these events.
“What’s eaten her?” He asked Maple. “Something, I’m not sure what… or who.” He answered yawning. “Oh well, guess I’ve got to go…” He said nuzzling her.
“Bye!” She called as he went into the house after his mother.
6 and a half weeks later…
Luke and Maple, as always where just randomly strolling up the pathway, days ‘till Maple was supposed give birth to her young. “How do you feel?” He asked.
“Fine.” She said.
“You sure?”
“yes Luke! All you ask me is Are you fine, whats wrong, I know your not feeling well Well get this into your thick skull I am!”
“Jeeze…” He said mumbling. “No need to get cranky.”
“Look, I’m 8 weeks pregnant, I cant get 1 hours sleep, I’m mates with you and Arg!” She screamed.
“Hmm…” He mumbled licking her to calm her down. “It’s okay, they will be here soon… Hopefully.”
“Yeah.” She said smiling at him, she gave him a nuzzle and padded off.
Luke smiled and turned away, heading for the beach, however Maple; was heading to the dream of the pair
Once Luke had reached the beach he simply laid down on the sand and smiled. “Ah, Beautiful word… Just for me.” He chuckled, until he thought he could hear screaming; “Maple?” He asked.
“Maple, oh my god Maple!”
He called jumping off and sprinting towards the screams. What was happening? Was she being kidnapped? Killed? Abused? this was all that was going through his head.
Once he arrived at the scene: Nothing, completely nothing, no trace of blood, no noise, nothing.
“Maple!” He called before seeing something witch would change his life forever.
“Luke, come have a look.”
“There, there, there beautiful!” He stuttered.
She smiled up at him. “Oh really?”. “What about me?” She asked giggling.
Luke rolled his eyes at her comment. “Killable.” He remarked giving her a friendly glare. “Names?” He somehow offered to give.
“Um, ok… I’ve named 2 already, you want to name the other 4?”
“Um…” He was not sure about FOUR names, however 3 would do.
“Oh I’ve got one!” Maple called. “Daniel?”
“Lovely, and eh… Don’t we let the humans decide?”
“The humans can get stuffed. They ditched me.”
“How come? ‘Cause you where pregnant?”
“Actually yes, they did not want me with them anymore, because I kept eating, and hiding from the kids playing, from where I normally would play with them.” She explained as Luke just gazed at her amazed. “wow” He said. “That was a shock… Um, Scruffy? And Lola?”
“Yes, that sounds pretty cool.” She licked a female pup “Lola” Then nuzzled the male. “Scruffy, yeah brilliant!”.
All was going well, for Luke and Maple.
8 weeks later.
“Stop biting me stupid pups.” Luke said literally bleeding from there bites.
“Luke…” Maple said in a Don’t do that way, slightly snarling with that as well.
“Daddy, why are you and mummy always fighting?” Daniel asked worried; They always seem to of come up with something to argue about, or that; literally fight about.
“Because, Because, Because…” Luke stuttered hoping for answer, and fast.
“Because we broke up hunny.” Maple said lowering her head.
“We did?” Luke asked.
“We will.”
“We what? When? How?”
“Come over here Luke.” She said walking him towards an alley. “I’m sorry, I..I..I Kinda found someone else, not for these pups… But, we want to start a different family.”
“Oh, well in that case…” He gulped on what he was about to do. “Get out of my life!” He yelled slamming his full body weight into her. “What did you think I was, a temporary loverboy huh!” He pounced on her and pinned her down snarling and growling like never before. “You never loved me did you?” He asked resting his head on her whimpering.
“I did, but not anymore, your not the Luke I loved, your someone else. I’m sorry.”
“Just leave me and MY pups alone.” He growled running off towards the pups.
“Poor Luke, why did I have to do that?” She asked herself.
Was this the end of a life-long story? Or just a glitch?
“Where did mummy go?” A pup asked.
“Nevermind.” He said.
“But where!” The pups started growling and snarling wanting an answer.
“You know what? You lot can just go find your stupid mummy, if that’s all you want!” He kicked some snow at the pups and snapped at them until they left.
“Pups…” He mumbled.
“Mummy! Where are you mummy, mummy? MUMMY!” The pup screamed as they saw… Something, witch will haunt Luke and the pups; forever.
