Looking for Love
Hey everyone! I know its been ages since I've uploaded anything. So for now here is a sample of a short series I've been working around my head for months. Its full of grammar mistakes and such, but they will be filtered before full submission. Hope you enjoy!
Sample:
Cole sighed as he entered the subway car along with a few furs and another human, easily finding a seat at the early morning hour. Pulling out his phone he switched it on, waiting for the white apple to disapear and reveal any missed texts or calls over the last twelve hours.
2 NEW MESSAGES
"Mike C.
Hey bro, you out of work yet or just starting? Wanted to see if you wanted to join Cala and I for lunch tomorrow. We were thinking Panera Bread on Welmont. Let me know. :)"
Cole smiled and wrote back,
"Just got off. let me shower and get a few hours and I'll join ya. Noon work?"
He sent the message into space having just enough bars as the train exited the tunnels and made its way to the urban residences just outisde of downtown.
NEW MESSAGE
"1-444-555-4343
Hey, its your mother. New number, hope you don't block this one like you and your brother did. All I want to do is talk. Your father is manipulating you into beliveing I am the enem-"
MESSAGE DELETED.
Cole sighed, not wanting to let his mother's bull get to him.
"Now entering Lemming Way Avenue. Cliffton Transportation Authority reminds you to stay safe, and take all belongings with you."
Cole stood up from his chair and moved to the subway door as the train slowed into the urban community. The doors opened with a hydraulic hiss and emptied the scrub clad human into the open air platform, still lit by the lamps waiting for the sun to finish rising.
Cole enjoyed the early mornings, the cool air, the quiet, just waiting for the city to stir. Walking down to the brownstones, Cole breathed the chill air, trying to relax his fatigued yet wired mind. He mulled the day over as he entered the code for his building and walked up two flights to his small but well furnished studio apartment that served as his new home in the urban neighborhood.
Not wasting any time, the sandy haired man undressed and showered, relaxing his toned muscles and pushing the stress from his mind. Soon, the young nurse was washed and dried, and soon fell into bed to fall into a deep sleep.

"Hey man! Good to see you! How's life been treating you?" The husky siad, greeting his buddy as he and his girlfriend stood up from the table.
"Great! Works been good." Cole said, leaning to kiss Cala on the sheek "Hey doll! Also, liking the subway, saves on gas. The Camero is a great car, but it isnt cheap to fill or fuel efficient."
"Enjoying civilian life though? No uniforms, no swaying vessels, though there aren't any seamen." Cala smirked, sitting back down and tucking her fluffy tail into the opening on the chair.
"I gotta wear scrubs still. How about you? The boutique doing well?"
"Yeah, got a few high end regular clients now, and as I gain their favor, they recommend me to thier circles. Buisness is breaking even but I'm confident things will pick up and I can finish off those loans for good."
"Great! And the CPD treating you well?"
"Excellent. Been there long enough to get better hours, no more midnight patrols. About to get a promotion. Oh, you need to order, we're waiting on ours now." Mike said, waiving the dormant buzzer.
"Right. Didn't eat anything since work." Cole said, realizing how hungry he was. He rapidly stood up and ran straught into a panther, sending a tray and its contents crashing to the floor.
"Oh my god! I'm so sorry!" Cole said, bending to picking the plate and various sandwich contents, "Let me buy ya a new meal."
"Its okay, they'll replace it." The panther said good naturedly.
"I apologize. New work schedule has me on the fritz. Did any get on your shirt or tie?"
"I'm fine, really! Thanks." He said with a smile, his bright green eyes catching Cole's.
"Of course, i'm so sorry. I'm gonna go order my food and hopefully make it back in one piece."
"Yeah, maybe my next sandwich will survive. Guess it was just his time."
"heh, yeah. I'm a regular grim reaper!" Cole said witha chuckle. Realizing how goofy he sounded, his cheeks turned a rosy red and no fur to hide it.
"Then your the kindest reaper I've met." The panther said with a grin, enjoying the dimples and blush on the humans cheeks.
