Stranger in a strange place

I drove down the road. I wasnt going to care what Kats house was going to be like and i wouldnt tell anyone either if she didnt want me to. Hearing her question I looked to Ian. There really isnt one, I said. Even if there was Cale and I dont follow dress codes, said Ian. It was true. Ian and I always had to be different. Ok so the girls like to wear mini skirts but that was the thing today. Look Im going to wear a mini skirt and halter top, I said. It might give her an idea of what to wear. And Im wearing a black t-shirt with dark blue jeans, said Ian.

We pulled up to Kats house. Wow its nice, I said calmly. I parked the truck and Ian helpped Kat out of the truck again. I jumped out and followed the two up to the house. It was big but like I said I was use to rich people. Ian was famous back in Wales so I nknwe what to expect. Are your parents home? asked Ian. He didnt care to much for meeting peoples parents. Most didnt like that he was a rockstar. When they hear that they think drugs and girls. But that wasnt Ian. He was a complete gentle man. I looked around me at all the money. I shrugged it off and followed Kat and Ian.

Kat guided them nervously to her house and stared up at the glossy new building its stone fronting and wooden paneling up higher made it look far to classy. She hopped out and nodded for them to follow before pausing at the door, she had to give the disclaimer. “As soon as we walk through that door a very large wolf like dog is gonna charge us. I promise he is friendly as anything so don’t freak out. He is my boy, Ace.”

With that she pulled out her key and let herself in. She let them in and closed the door quickly as the jingle of a collar could be heard from somewhere upstairs. She looked to the stairs as the black and gray canine tore around the corner and froze at the top of the stairs. His tail lashed and his shoulders tensed. Each movement seemed a little strained as he restrained. Sharp blue eyes, even brighter then Kat’s own stared out from his dark face. Finally he gave a howl and powered down the stairs like a downhill train. He ran to Kat first and greeted her by jumping up and placing a paw on either side of her neck and licked all the way up her face. She whipped it away and knocked him down.

Then Ace was on to Charlie, sniffing her and nosing her. With a little bound he was at Ian and then satisfied took to bounding between them as if to keep both appeased. “Sorry about him he is a shelter rescue and rather hard to calm down. She hurried past the stairs and gave a sharp whistle. Ace, reluctantly, turned to trot after her. The sound of a door opening and closing was given before she returned. “Um make yourselves at home… I got to find something.” With that Kat tore off upstairs.
