Prompts: Lets get you out of those wet clothes/ And there was only 1 bed/ Supernatural
Author’s Note: This is a fic taking place in my A Vampire, A Werewolf and A Merman AU. Basically all you need to know for this fic is that Francis is a vampire who has become rich thanks founding a popular clothing brand, Arthur is a werewolf and Ludwig is a merman.
A Vampire, a Werewolf and a Merman go on a Business Trip
“You two didn’t have to come,” Francis tsked as Ludwig placed their luggage in the closet. “Are you sure you’re going to be fine mon loulou? We’re far from the ocean.”
“I’ll be fine,” Ludwig assured him. “Plus…I’ve always wanted to see what was beyond the town.”
Francis couldn’t help, but smile. Right, Ludwig hadn’t been beyond the town other than some trips he took with his brother in the ocean. Speaking of Ludwig’s brother…
“D-Does…” Arthur cut in, “Does Gilbert know you’re here?”
“No…But I spend enough time at your place, so he just thinks I’m there.”
“Ludwig!” Francis and Arthur both shrieked.
“If your brother finds out about this…” Arthur began.
“He'll surely have our heads!” Francis cried.
Ludwig shook his head. “If it comes to that, I’ll deal with him. I’m an adult, and I can make my own decisions. And I decided I want to be here with you two!”
Francis blushed lightly, and Arthur’s mouth hung open. “Has the bloodsucker rubbed off on you?” Arthur eventually huffed in amusement.
“Hey!” Francis cried. He shoved his werewolf lover, who only shoved him back. Before a fight could break out, Ludwig placed a hand on each of their shoulders.
“Now, now. There is no need to get so heated unless you plan on destroying the room.” The two men pouted, but at least the shoving match had stopped before it even started. “Now,” Ludwig said with a sigh, “I think some food is in order.”
Francis brightened. “That’s a wonderful idea. There are so many wonderful restaurants around here!”
Arthur only grumbled but also agreed.
Bellies full and the sun setting, the three lovers were heading back to their hotel. After all, Francis had an early start tomorrow with his business meeting.
“Are you covered enough love?” Arthur asked, holding an umbrella over Francis.
Ludwig walked slightly further ahead, amazed by all the new sights and sounds. He may have been spending most of his time on land for the past two years, but he had never gone beyond the town the three of them resided in, at least, not on land. There was a lot to see.
The walk had been pleasant until clouds rolled in and the first drops of rain were felt. The three didn’t think much of it at first, picking up their pace slightly, but then started to rain harder.
Francis’s attention snapped towards Ludwig, the scales around his face began to appear as he got drenched. “Ludwig, come here before–”
There was a gasp from across the street causing all three of them to freeze. The weather may have chased away most, but a few people still lingered, having gotten caught in the rain.
Francis turned towards Arthur, but before he could say anything, Arthur shoved the umbrella into his hand and took off towards Ludwig. “Idiot, you should have gotten under the umbrella sooner,” Arthur sneered. He tossed his jacket over Ludwig’s head to conceal the scales on his cheeks before taking Ludwig’s hand and making a run for the hotel. “Hurry up Francis.”
They were on the street of their hotel just as it began downpouring. “A-Arthur…My…My legs.”
Francis looked in horror as he saw scales forming on Ludwig’s legs. “Arthur he’s–”
“Shit.” Not thinking twice, Arthur stopped and crouched down. “On my back,” he ordered.
“Are you sure you can carry me?” Ludwig asked, brows furrowed.
Ludwig gave Francis a hesitant look before climbing on.
Arthur staggered slightly upon standing up. Even with werewolf strength, his size made it a bit hard to carry Ludwig. But these were desperate times. With an animalistic growl, Arthur took off towards the hotel, Francis running behind. The three lovers collapsed into the elevator. Just as they did so, Ludwig’s legs turned into a tail.
“Great,” Arthur grumbled, setting Ludwig down, “Now what?”
Francis looked down at the tail. It would not be easy to hide. “We’ll wrap it up in our jackets as much as we can and hope for the best.”
“How will we carry him without them slipping?” Arthur challenged.
So, Francis and Arthur wrapped their jackets around Ludwig’s tail. They didn’t cover all of it, but they covered the most of it, so it would do. “Are you sure you two can carry me?” Ludwig asked again.
“We don’t exactly have a choice,” Arthur replied. He hooked his arms under Ludwig’s, while Francis grabbed the end of Ludwig’s tail.
Miraculously, the three were able to get into their room safely without being seen. Arthur and Francis laid Ludwig on the bed. “Let's get you out of those wet clothes,” Francis suggested, already grabbing the end of Ludwig’s shirt.
“I-I can do it myself,” Ludwig sputtered out.
Francis smirked, pressing a kiss against the merman’s lips. He slipped the shirt off as they parted. Ludwig flushed slightly. “I’ll go get you some towels to dry up.” He placed one more kiss on Ludwig’s forehead before getting up.
Once Francis had grabbed the towels, Arthur headed to the washroom with his shampoo and soap. “I’m heading for a shower before I start to smell like wet dog,” Arthur muttered.
Francis giggled, grabbing the werewolf’s shoulder and stealing a quick kiss. “You do that. Ludwig and I will be waiting for you.
Arthur’s cheeks flushed a dark red, a small smile spreading across his face. “Okay…”
So the three lovers settled down in their bed. Luckily Francis had booked a room with a king bed before he even knew his lovers would be joining him. It wasn’t as spacious as the one back home, but it would work. Francis and Arthur cuddled up to Ludwig, pulling the blanket over them. In no time, all three had fallen asleep.
mon loulou = my darling/my wolf
