59 A Major Decision

[Warning: Just... you have been warned]

Caleb turned around only to find Ashton standing there with a concerned expression. He realised the irony of the situation, given how the one person he wished to be away from at this very moment was thevery person who found him here. "Why are you here"? Caleb asked him quite rudely. "Did you… follow me"?

"Of course I did. I noticed you ran away so I wondered what's wrong". Ashton whispered.

"So you decided to follow me? Are you going to follow me every time I run away"? Caleb snapped at him.

"Probably not, but…"Ashton trailed off, confused with Caleb's behaviour. "I followed you because I was worried that you got in your heat or something. It's been over a month since your last heat. I know how important it is for you to keep your secret safe, and I got worried for you". Ashton tried to explain it to him. "What is going on with you? Based on your scent… I can tell it's not heat. Are you alright"?
