If your still doing headcanon of dream daddy how about Hugo finding and helping a Werewolf Robert. If possible 😊🐺
I want to say sorry beforehand because I don’t think I’m the best at writing werewolf AU, but I tried my hardest. I wrote a short story for background on how Hugo found werewolf!Robert and then some headcannons on him taking care of him. I hope that’s okay.
Hugo finding and helping werewolf!Robert
Decided to go with a Robert gif, hope you guys don’t mind.
Hugo wasn’t that close to Robert as he was the other dads in the cul-de-sac, but he knew something was up with him. He just got the nagging feeling, he needed to keep a closer eye on him.
One night, it was late, past 1 a.m. Hugo had been up grading tests and Ernest was in his bedroom hopefully asleep, but mostly likely on his phone. Hugo had happened to be looking out the window to see Robert getting into his car. This became a daily thing and Hugo knew he was out doing something. He wanted to get to the bottom of it. So, he decided to tail his car. It was an 8th wonder of the world how Hugo wasn’t caught by Robert, but he was able to actually see where Robert was going on these night drives and what he was doing
They were in a wooded area. Robert got out of his car and proceeded to walk into the woods. Hugo knew Robert would come out here at times to think or whittle, but couldn’t he just do that in the comfort of his truck. For a minute, Hugo thought of just turning his car around. That was until...
“... what the fuck was that?” Hugo had heard something he could only describe as inhuman.
It sounded like the cross of a human screaming and some sort of howling sound. Yeah, Hugo was sure he had shit himself, he didn’t know what to do. Then he heard a sound akin to a dog whimpering, but the sound was much deeper.
Hugo took a few deep breaths before he grabbed a flashlight from his glovebox and proceeded to get out of his car. This was dangerous, that ‘sound’ could’ve been anything, but he knew Robert was out there and he had to make sure he was okay. So, he set off in the direction that Robert went off in. He had been walking for at least 20 minutes, calling out Robert’s name, but there was no answer. He was about to turn around, figuring Robert had already left, when his flashlight highlighted the crimson substance on one of the trees. It was blood... It took every bit of courage in Hugo not to turn back and run. But he wasn’t only scared for his life, Robert could’ve been out in these woods. He followed the blood trail for around 100 feet until he came across a... body? It was covered in dark, dense body hair akin to fur. But it also had the similar anatomy to a man. A hairy naked bleeding man. It seemed like it was shot through its shoulder and thigh. Most likely the work of a hunter. Hugo then moved the creature onto its back to get a closer look at what it was when...
“Robert? Is that you? No, it can’t be...” his words trailed off.
A face slightly covered in dense fur was turned to him, the features were unmistakably Robert. Hugo immediately lifted the man onto his back. He was heavy, but Hugo knew he had to get him out of here if Robert had any chance of surviving.
Hugo brings the man to his car and lays him out in the backseat. He takes a jacket he had in his car and rips the sleeves off of it to wrap it around Roberts wounds. As he is getting ready to jump in the drivers seat, a hand grabs his wrist. Sharp claws dig into Hugo’s flesh causing him to yelp in pain. He snaps his head in the direction of Robert to see his dark eyes staring up at him.
“Thank you.” His voice is harsh and deep. It sort of comes out as a hushed growl. It’s obvious that Robert is in pain and Hugo knows he needs to get him help. Robert’s clawed hand releases the grip he had on Hugo’s wrist and seemingly passes out. Hugo takes his chance to climb into the drivers seat and get the hell out of there.
~Hugo was frightened and bewildered at the situation he was placed in
~Robert was hurt yes and needed proper medical attention, but...
~Robert obviously wasn’t human, Hugo knew he couldn’t take him to the hospital
~He finally got to the cul-de-sac and was going to pull up into Robert’s driveway when he remembered that he needed a key
~Robert was naked and he doubted his key was anywhere on his person
~Hugo rushed Robert into his house, as quietly as possible to ensure not to alert the attention of Ernest
~He placed him on his bed and turned the lights on to get a better look at him, Robert seemed to still be passed out
~It looked like both the bullets had gone completely through him, meaning that there wasn’t any bullet fragments inside his body
~This was good news, all Hugo needed to do was make sure to stop the bleeding and dress the wounds appropriately to stop any infections
~Once that was done, he placed a blanket over Robert’s body and put some pain medication and a water bottle on the nightstand next to Robert for when he woke up
~Hugo was awake the entire night, watching television didn’t help the unnerving thoughts he was getting
~What if it was a mistake bringing him here? Ernest is only down the hall from Robert. What if he hurts Ernest or him? The anxiety made him sick to his stomach and kept him up all night
~He didn’t even realize how long he had been up until Ernest’s voice brought him out of his thoughts
~“Dad, what are you doing in the living room?”
~It was 7:00, if Hugo wasn’t so damn panicked, he would’ve told his son how proud he was that he got up on time, but he couldn’t say much
~He dropped Ernest off at school and went straight back home. He knew the ladies at the office weren’t going to like his last minute call in sick, but needed to take care of Robert
~When he got back home, he immediately checked up on Robert to see that he looked like he was back to normal
~No fur covering his body, no sharp claws, even the bullet wounds had healed to the point where they were just scratches
~Hugo knew what he had saw, he knew he wasn’t imagining things, but this was absurd
~He couldn’t explain any of it, but he didn’t have time to hypothesize. He ran a bath and put Robert onto his shoulder to get him into the bath
~It was only a few minutes until Robert woke up in the warmth and comfort of a bubble bath
~Hands we’re moving down his heated body rubbing the sweat, dirt, and blood off of him
~It was Hugo, who was doing this for him, rubbing his hands across his body gently to clean him
~Usually Robert wouldn’t be down for this, but his body was too sore and hurt like hell for him to want to fight back
~Plus, Hugo’s hands were comforting and it felt good to have some human contact
~“I was worried about you, so I followed you into the woods. I know it wasn’t right, but I just wanted to know what was going on...” Hugo’s words trailed off as he looked into the eyes of Robert, he gulped, “you were hurt... shot two times. In the shoulder and thigh, but you’re okay now.”
~“Hugo, you don’t need to ask. I know what you’re thinking and you’re right.”
~“I am... you’re a superhero? Like the hulk?”
~“No, you dumbass, I’m a werewolf! For a teacher, you’re a fucking idiot you know that.”
~Hugo sat there stunned, a werewolf
~Robert was a werewolf, a handsome, husky man, but still a werewolf nonetheless!
~“I guess that does make more sense than being the furry version of the Hulk. When were you going to tell me?”
~Now it was Robert’s turn to look at Hugo, shocked
~“Why would I? I’m a fucking werewolf. I can’t just come out the closet as a creature most people don’t even believe exist.”
~Well, Robert was right, but it still didn’t settle well with Hugo. Robert was struggling... alone. He needed support
~“You’re right, but you still need someone you can lean on.”
~They shared a silent moment together. Their eyes staring deeply into each other’s. Robert’s lips parted to say something, but immediately turned his gaze elsewhere.
“Are you going to continue washing me or what?” On that note, Hugo continued to wash Robert’s body.
~Once he was all cleaned, Hugo brought him some pain medication and antibiotics to take. He also rubbed some ointment on his wounds that had healed to mere scratches.
~Hugo helped Robert out of the bath and gave him some clothes to wear.
~“Look, I appreciate you helping me out. You didn’t need to do all this, but you did. I really owe you one.”
~“It’s no problem. I’m happy I was there to find you and take care of you.”
~They shared another silent moment, before Robert laid his head on Hugo’s broad shoulder
~Hugo was a little surprised by this, but allowed Robert to lay there
~He ran his fingers through Robert’s graying hair and kissed the top of his head.
~“Robert, If you ever need help with anything, just call me.”
~Robert let out a soft chuckle, “I know you’ll be there, but I think I’ll be okay. Being what I am, I can’t let you get any closer to me. This is for me to figure out.”
~“You won’t hurt me. I know this is your problem, but—.”
~“I can and will. I mean look at your wrist. I know I did that to you and I could do a lot more. I’ve lived like this for a while, but sometimes I can’t handle my ‘urges.’ I’ll be okay.”
~Hugo takes the time to look at his bandaged wrist. He knew Robert was right.
~He helped Robert up and to the front door.
~“Hugo!—” Robert’s face softened when he realized he had raised his voice, “I can walk to my house. You’ve already done enough.”
~And with that, Robert walked out the door and to his house
~Hugo stood there for a second, dazed and questioning if all this even happened
~He just had to trust Robert could take care of himself and was going to be more careful
~There was this odd tug at his heart he felt. Is it possible that he was starting to feel something for this man? Maybe, Robert was feeling the same tug at his heart...
That!Was!A!Lot! But I hope you enjoyed it and thank you for the request. I’m sorry this took so long to get out to you. This definitely tested my creativity and I’m happy you sent in a request like this. Not going to lie @wolf2009 I might make this into a series...
