Settling In

In the morning, Tosh and Meg wanted to come back out to the front of the lot and see their property, as it was in the daylight. After all, new homeowners tend to want to see what their property looks like and it isn't possible during the night-time to really get a good idea of what the place looks like.

"I really think we made a good acquisition with this one." Tosh commented to his partner.

"I think it has potential." Meg replied gazing at Tosh with a gleam in her blue eyes which left Tosh wondering just what it was that she was referring to.

"I've always loved the older homes." Meg stated as she looked up at the imposing structure. Four floors of incredible was her thought as she perused the sprawling house that took up the majority of the property and she could see little gemstones and minerals that seemed to be scattered across the property, luckily behind fencing so that no-one else could partake of the gemstones without being charged with trespassing. After all, she did have a law degree.

"As a matter of fact, I think it's quite homey." Tosh replied to Meg who looked at him with a smile on her face as she seemed to study him, "Homey...not homely." he said self-deprecatingly.

"You're not homely..." Meg smirked at him. "You're just rough and weathered..." The flirting led to an amorous hug from Meg which perked Tosh's spirits up. They had been running for a while fearing reprisals from potential trackers from the research center. After all they had been reading in the newspapers about two were's on the loose and that humans were now scared.

The smell of Meg's perfume enveloped Tosh's senses as her arms wrapped around his neck. "I'm so glad that you're with me..." he heard Meg whisper. "It just seemed like an absolute nightmare while I was captive in their clutches."

As he gazed into Meg's eyes, something told him that he needed to take that plunge and let her know how he felt about her. He grinned as he pulled out a bouquet of "Perfect Purple" flowers and Meg accepted them taking a deep inhale of the flower's scent. Tosh grinned as he saw her eyes widen in pleasure, then he confessed how attracted he was to Meg and gave her a shy kiss which she did not reject.

That translated into a much deeper kiss as the both of them succumbed to their desires and assuaged their loneliness in the arms of the other.

"Meg...I think we've seen enough of the front exterior of the house, don't you think?" Tosh commented wryly as he gazed at her. "I think we should take a look at the inside."

Meg grinned at him in return, "Well, you aren't going to find me objectin'." she stated,

"After you, my love..." Tosh stated grandly.

"Why thank you." Meg replied as she walked through the now open gate and headed for the door which seemed a bit simple for the opulence of this building.

The first sight that met their eyes when they opened the door was the grand pipe organ whose tone pipes spanned two storeys of the house. In fact, it appeared as though the pipe organ would end up shaking the entire house if played. Meg's jaw nearly hit the ground and Tosh's eyes were as wide as pie-plates. As a former piano/organ student during his teens, he'd always dreamed of playing a pipe organ, but had always thought that they were completely in the possession of churches and that he would have to go ask to play them. Never had he realized that there could be a privately owned pipe organ and that he was lucky enough to be a owner of one because it had been built into the house. He couldn't wait to play it, but of course there were so many other things to do still.

Meg, being a bookworm just absolutely adored the library. She wanted nothing more than to bury her face in a book and read until she was cross-eyed with ocular fatigue. And to have such an opulent library was the cream in the cat's milk bowl.

There were two floors of basement to explore with a massive car garage and an ice rink on the second basement floor with three air conditioners to keep the place chilly enough for the ice to freeze. Of course, the exercise equipment like the universal machines and the treadmills were down there on one side of the ice rink while the martial arts equipment was on the other side. And there were couches set up like hockey rink benches so that people could get comfortable watching the players skate.

Meg and Tosh decided against fancy furniture as since they had become lycanthropes after being fed an elixir, they were wont to scratch furniture and spending money on expensive furniture and then getting the desire to scratch it was not the smartest choice in the world.

Tough, unphotogenic furniture it was, but it would stand up to the likes of werewolves scratching it.

And Tosh got his wish to play the organ and yes, it rattled the windows.
