For Alexi(fireglowtigerstrike ) Lia sat in her seat at the restaurant, leg bouncing nervously. She looked around, it wasn't that crowded honestly, just a few people here and there. She felt like all eyes were on her, though. She always did when in a place like this...dressed up as she was. The gray wolf was in a quite pretty dress, it was a strapless purple dress...and she had to admit, she looked really cute in it, even if she normally hated wearing them. But not having anything on her shoulders...she felt so exposed! She hugged her belly, fear filling her as anxiety filled her, thoughts of what everyone was thinking about her, imagining them calling her all kinds of names, insulting her, calling her a- "Sorry I'm late!" She jerked her head up snapping out of her thoughts and seeing a white tiger in a Atrium band shirt and some Cargo pants, his distinctive saber teeth and purple highlighted hair making her smile. He took a seat, his necklace and bracelets jingling a little as he did, and she felt much more at ease. It was their second date... the first had gone really well, and they both wanted another so...here they were. "I'm a bit dressed up, I hope that's alright..." she said with a giggle, "I wanted to look pretty tonight though..." She gave him a wink and waved for a waiter to bring them their menus. "I LOVE their steak by the way, you should try it." Alexi gave her a warm smile as he looked down at his own clothes, "I would have been more formal if I knew..." he said with a shrug, "and you look beautiful, you would no matter what you wore." She blushed at the compliment, but before she could say anything their waiter came and took their orders. Lia ordered a large glass, she hated running out and needing it refilled, and a simple steak. Alexi ordered the same, but asked for the steak made differently. They had some idle chat for a while, eventually getting their order and quickly dived in. Lia had sucked down her drink, get it refilled, and sucked down another. She didn't feel the alcohol at all though. "Careful there, you're going to get wasted!" jokes Alexi as he saw her quickly drinking her second glass, shaking his head. He hadn't seen anyone practically inhale wine like that...well...without wanting to get drunk. There had been that one girl back in highschool... He shook his head, that didn't matter right now! "Unless you're hoping to get drunk?" Lia giggled shaking her head, "I'm not worried about getting drink. Wine never does, no matter how much I drink." She finished her glass and kept eating her steak, but started needing to go to the bathroom. She looked around discretely for the bathroom and found it...with a huge line. She swore to herself, she didn't want to just leave Alexi to go to the bathroom and be gone for half an hour...she could hold it. The wolf and tiger talk each other company for another half hour talking about various subjects; their pasts, Alexi currently being in online classes while working from home, Lia having stopped looking for a 'cure' for her 'problem', etc. It wasn't until the pressure from her bladder that Lia started to realize she really, REALLY had to go to the bathroom, she looked over and...the line was still huge. "Fuck..." she said under her breath quietly, and Alexi perked his ears looking a bit worried as if thinking he said something wrong. "It's not you, sorry. I uh...really need to pee..." He laughed a bit before catching her glare showing him that it wasn't a time to laugh. "S-sorry, want to leave and go somewhere you can go to the bathroom?" He asked, he knew there was a convenience store nearby, but it was the closest place nearby...and was a good few miles at least. Lia closed her eyes, she didn't want to ruin the date but...she really had to go. She crossed her legs as she thought about it. "Maybe...in ten minutes or so?" she asked, mostly to herself and smiled, she could wait that long at least. It shouldn't be a big deal... Ten minutes turned to thirty...turned to another hour. Lia was starting to feel desperate though she lost track of time until she finally was close to her breaking point. "H-hey, lets go! I can't hold it much longer!" She said desperately suddenly during a conversation and they both quickly made their way out, Alexi paying as they walked out the door. She almost waddled to his car, jumping in and crossed her legs tight, pressing him to get to the nearest bathroom. They made it to a 7-11 and Lia sighed in relief, climbing out of the car... *Tsssssssssss* She froze, feeling a warmth leaking down her leg. There wasn't much...but it was enough. She couldn't help herself, tears started filling her eyes and she covered her face with her paws. Such a wonderful way to end a date...piss yourself in a parking lot. That will make people like you! She started crying and Alexi ran around the car, taking her in a hug and asking her what was wrong, noticing the small puddle around her legs. "Shhhh, it'll be alright" he told her, taking her shoulder and leading her inside, the clerk looking confused. "Where's the bathroom?" He asked, and the clerk pointed to the back, and he took the sobbing wolf to it, closing the door behind him and helped her into a stall. Without her saying anything, he took some toilet paper wraped it around his paw, starting to wipe her leg clean, then helped her out of her panties tossed it into the sink, pouring water over it. "See, not that big of a deal" he said, kissing her forehead. She slowly stopped crying but didn't say anything. Finally, after helping her clean off with a wet paper towel she stood up, panties cleaned and wrapped in paper towels but still in her clean dress. "Alright...I'm good..." she said quietly, still embarrassed. "It's not a big deal, promise" He told her, giving her a hug. They went back to the car, Lia super conscious of the fact that she wasn't actually wearing panties at the moment, blushing as they passed the clerk, even if he couldn't see anything. She stayed quiet as started heading back to town. "Can I stay with you tonight?" She asked, looking away, "To just...do some laundry? I don't want my roommate to know..." "Of course, I can give you some clothes for the night if you want." Alexi said with a smile, and she smiled back too. The ride back was...surprisingly pleasant. They talked about various things, putting the accident behind them. It wasn't that long of a ride, which Lia was thankful for. It was...airy without panties, and she wanted to get something else on. She carefully stepped out of the car, just in case someone was looking out...even though she knew no one was, and followed Alexi inside, who gave her some clothes for her to change into. She went into the bathroom, and came back giggling. She was in a shirt that was much too big for her, and a pair of boxers that just felt silly, but it was better than what she had been wearing. "You can take the bed, and I'll sleep on the couch. We could also watch some movies if you're not tired." Alexi called to her from the bed room, changing as well. Lia stepped in and gave a bit of a pouty face. "I don't want to sleep alone...could we maybe just like...cuddle and go to bed now?" She asked blushing, she wasn't wanting sex or anything...just cuddles. "Of course." he said, flopping onto the bed. Lia climbed onto it and cuddled up to him, resting her head on his chest and he reached a paw over, petting her shoulder and holding her to him. "Was a nice date overall..." she said as she yawned and giggled.
