Chapter 3
Charlie Swan woke up feeling strangely more energised than he usually did in the mornings. It felt like there was something in the air. Some kind of current which seemed to charge him, fill him with a sense of anticipation. As he made his way into the bathroom for his morning shower his thoughts were drawn to his new neighbours he met last night.
Mr Harry Black was a curious oddity indeed.
He looked rather young and yet walked as if he carried the weight of the world on his shoulders, from what Charlie had gathered from their brief interaction the night before.
He hadn't intended to go over like that but as he got out of the car and glanced over spotting Harry, something just seemed to pull at him and before he knew it, he was standing in front of his new neighbour and introducing himself. The first thing he had noticed was Harry's eyes. They were a startling shade of green. Like bright emeralds that almost seemed to glow in the evening light captivating him. Shaking his head slightly to clear his thoughts he turned off the water and stepping out of the shower, wrapped a towel around his waist as he made his way to his closet. Grabbing clothes almost at random he quickly got dressed before checking his watch.
'Only 9am' He thought to himself. 'I wonder if the new neighbours are up'. Suddenly his cell phone started ringing from his bedside table. Quickly walking over and grabbing his phone he answered it with an almost gruff "Morning?", smiling when he heard the other person on the line.
"Morning yourself Charlie. Haven't had your coffee yet huh?".
"That would be a no Billy I just woke up. Man cant do everything at once you know".
There was some light chuckling from the other line before Billy started talking again "True true, I was just calling to make sure we're still on for tomorrow, Jacob and the boys are practically buzzing with excitement". Rolling his eyes Charlie smirked to himself "You would think they never go anywhere outside the reserve with how they act."
"I think they just like to eat food they didn't have to cook themselves".
Charlie snorted softly in amusement before remembering about his invitation to his new neighbours for the barbecue tomorrow."Oh Billy I'm glad you called actually. The new neighbours next door finally moved in last night and I invited them over for tomorrow, hope that's all right with you?".
Billy paused for a few moments before replying. "New neighbours? They only just moved last night and you're already inviting them over for meet and greets?. She must be very pretty for you to offer so soon"
'He sure is' Charlie thought to himself.
"Actually Billy its a young man and his son I think. Wait till you hear their names. Harry and Teddy Black. They any relation to you? I asked last night but Harry seemed pretty out of it from the move. Figured I'd ask you, thought you might know more".
"Harry and Teddy? Black you said?. Can't say the names are familiar sorry. I'll ask them when we meet tomorrow. You did remember to go to the butcher's for meat right? The boys eat like an army."
"Yeah I didn't have time last night so I was going to head out today and pick some stuff up. How many cow's did you want? 4 right?"
"Sounds about right" the sound of loud crashing filled the line before Billy's loud cursing was heard. "Sorry Charlie but I have to go, Jacob and Paul again. We'll see you and your friends tomorrow bye!"
Charlie just sighed before hanging up, putting his phone away in his pocket he grabbed his keys from the bedside table and made his way down the stairs quickly turning on the air-conditioning, before heading out of his house. Locking up behind him he began making his way to his car when an almost tugging sensation made him stop in his tracks. 'Weird' was all he thought before he felt the strange sensation again pulling him in the direction of the house next door.
'Maybe I should go see how they're settling in...' he thought to himself before shrugging and making his way over to the new Black house. Smiling to himself he reached the door and knocked loudly, before putting his hands in his pockets and waited to see if someone would answer. After a few moments he heard footsteps approaching before the door opened slightly revealing a sleepy looking Harry Black. Harry seemed to be startled for a few moment at the sight of Charlie before him, so Charlie smiled warmly at him before speaking.
"Good morning!. I'm your neighbour Charlie. We met briefly last night & I just thought I'd come by and check up on you. See if you got settled in yet?".
Harry opened and closed his mouth a few times seemingly unable to talk, shaking his head slightly. A look of concern came over Charlie's face as he leaned in slightly "You all right there Harry?".
"O...oh! Yes. Yes I'm fine, sorry I just woke up and my brain doesn't seem to want to nippl...I mean work yet". A blush stole across Harry's face as Charlie chuckled at the man's obvious slip of the tongue.
'Wonder how far that blush goes' Charlie paused slightly at his odd thought flitting across his mind. He wasn't really sure what that was all about as he had never really had thoughts like that about other men but there was something ...right about it. Deciding not to think too hard on it for now he smiled again.
"Oh I know how that goes. I can't seem to function without my morning cup of joe". 'Which remind's me. I didn't have my cup this morning. Damn it I'll have to get one from the store' ,Charlie thought to himself before he noticed Harry simply stood there with a look of confusion on his face. "Coffee." he explained "You're not from around here are you. I'm guessing... London?".
Harry smiled softly at Charlie causing Charlie's heart flutter softly in his chest. "Yes actually. Me and Teddy are from Surrey, London".
Charlie smiled and nodded back at Harry. "Figured as much. You have a rather striking accent. Don't hear that around here too often".
"I'd imagine yes it would be rather uncommon around here. Err... Me and Teddy were just getting breakfast ready, would you like to join us?".
Charlie shook his head ruefully. He really wanted to go in and chat some more over breakfast with Harry but he had things to do today. It'd just have to wait till tomorrow.
"Oh I wouldn't want to impose. I need to head off anyway. I've got to get some shopping done for tomorrow. Cant make a barbecue out of air after all. Was just popping over to say hi and see if you needed a hand with anything".
Harry seemed jerk slightly at this before speaking quickly."We're ok I think but we're going to be going to the market as well later to get some supplies. The barbecue is tomorrow?".
Charlie laughed to himself before explaining that yes it was Friday and the barbecue was on Saturday, but he had to go and so with a quick wave and goodbye, he smiled at Harry again and turned around making his way down the stairs and over to the car. He could have sworn he heard a soft choking sound from behind him, but looking back he noticed the door was already closed. He also felt strangely content now he'd spoken to Harry.
Shrugging his shoulders he unlocked his car and drove off, stopping in along the way to the market at his favourite cafe for his morning coffee. Making his way over to the market, he headed straight to the butcher's placing his order in for tomorrow.
It would be delivered later that day to his house thank god, so he didn't have to lug the heavy boxes of meat to his car.
He spent the next hour making his way around the market looking at various odds and ends when he paused at one of the stalls. Something had caught his eye. Looking back he noticed dangling from one of the many hooks lining the wall, a small silver pendant.
It was in the shape of small wolf with bright emerald eyes lying down with its head resting on its forepaws. 'They're the same colour as Harry's' he thought to himself before quickly grabbing it and making his way over to the counter.
"How much is this?" He asked the old woman at the register.
Frowning she glanced at him before looking at the pendant he was holding. Almost as if startled, she reached out and gently took a hold of the pendant, holding it up in front of her, slowly rotating it as if analysing it.
"I didn't know we still had this piece. It has a history Mr Swan. Are you buying this for yourself?" She said with a small knowing smile on her face.
"I was thinking of giving it to someone actually..." Charlie said awkwardly rubbing his hand against the back of his neck.
"The wolf is a powerful symbol. They represent cunning and creativity and are fierce protectors of family and friends. I think he will love it" She said smiling warmly at him before handing it back.
"Free of charge Mr Swan. Have a good day".
Charlie smiled confusedly at her before thanking her and heading out. On his way back to the car he paused remembering what she'd said. 'He will love it?. I didn't say who I was giving it to...' Shrugging his shoulders Charlie continued on, unlocking his car and was about to hop in when suddenly a small voice called out.
"Mr Swan!".
Turning around Charlie noticed a small tawny haired boy running towards him waving happily. Frowning slightly in confusion he waited for the boy to reach him before responding.
"Hello son, can I help you with something?", confusion evident in his voice.
The boy in front of him giggled slightly. "My name's Teddy Black I just moved next door to you with my Godfather Harry".
Relaxing Charlie nodded looking around to see if he could see Harry around but the other man was nowhere in sight.
"Is everything ok?".
Teddy smiled again before nodding. "Yeah, Harry is just in the market getting some things for tomorrow but I got lost and can't find him could you please help me?".
Sighing softly to himself Charlie nodded before reaching out his hand for Teddy.
"All right come along then son lets see if we can find him together".
Teddy took a hold of Charlie's hand and then without warning started racing off towards the market, practically dragging Charlie behind him in his haste. To be honest it was a rather comical sight to see the police chief being dragged along by a little boy many years his junior, quite a few people in the market even stopped what they were doing to watch as Teddy raced past dragging Charlie behind him.
"Whoa whoa slow down there little fella. Where's the fire? " Charlie said with a small laugh.
"Oh sorry Mr Swan" Teddy said, slowing down to a leisurely walk. "I think I see Harry over by the pet stall!" And sure enough there was Harry bent over cooing at the puppies playing around in one of the small pens spread about the stall. 'Nice view' Charlie thought to himself with a grin.
"Harry!" Teddy yelled loudly. Hearing his name being shouted made Harry jump up in surprise, looking around for his godson. Seeing Teddy racing towards him dragging a smiling Charlie Swan behind him, Harry's eyes opened wide in shock.
"Charlie? Teddy? What's going on?"
Charlie grinned wider at the obvious concern in Harry's voice before speaking.
"I was about to hop in my car and head home when this little tyke found me. Said he was lost and asked If I could help find you".
Harry groaned softly, the sound causing Charlie's heart to race.
"I told him I was going to come here to the pet stall and see about getting a puppy for our new home. I'm awfully sorry Charlie I don't know how he could forget", Harry said glancing at his godson who was standing behind Charlie with a wicked smirk on his face.
"Its no problem Harry I was happy to help. Its kind of in the job description, being the police chief and all. Did you find what you were looking for?" Charlie said with a small smile, nodding towards the puppies currently curling up in the corner of the pen.
"Sadly no. They're all adorable but ...not quite what I'm looking for" Harry said sadly.
Charlie nodded politely whilst dragging his arm with an attached Teddy from behind his back towards Harry in front of him
"Well I believe this belongs to you. Might want to get a leash for him so he doesn't run off like that again"
"Oh believe me, I'm already making plans to buy one as we speak" Harry replied with a small laugh
"I'd best be off then. Need to get back home before deliveries arrive, get the house ready and barbecue out the back for tomorrow. Was nice seeing you again Harry" Charlie said holding out his hand towards Harry.
Harry blushed softly before he reached out taking Charlie's hand. When Harry placed his hand in Charlie's though the most curious thing happened. What felt like a jolt of electricity seemed to race up his arm from Harry's hand. What was even more startling was the rush of pleasure Charlie seemed to get from that small jolt. Quickly letting go of Harry's hand he mumbled a quick goodbye to Teddy and swiftly turning around headed back to his car.
Thoughts swirling around his head about Harry and what that feeling was. It was almost indescribable. Hot burning pleasure racing up his arm and down to his groin. Charlie groaned softly to himself. This was getting out of hand. Ok so maybe he might be attracted to his new neighbour. He wasn't going to freak out . He was definitely NOT going to have a mid-life crisis over his sexuality in the middle of the market place. He was a grown man and would act like it. Nodding to himself as if that settled the matter he unlocked his car door and quickly hopping in, started the car and driving off. Not noticing two ruby eyes that seemed to follow him till he was out of sight.
Once Charlie was out of sight. A rather mysterious figure slowly stepped out from behind the tree line. He was a pale blond haired man, rather tall and well built with his hair cut off at his broad shoulders and clad in dark, fitted black dress pants and a black button up shirt. His outfit enhancing his pale features. Sniffing the air, the man smirked, seemingly pleased with what he detected.
"Most interesting...I think I might have to extend my stay for a while", the man said, his sharp english accented voice cutting through the cold morning air. Chuckling darkly to himself the man seemed seemed to pull a thick, long black robe lined with ruby red trimmings from the very air behind him. Drawing it smoothly around himself, he seemed to shimmer before he promptly disappeared, leaving no trace of his presence.
