Hiding at the edge of the meadow, I could see a boy about my age being tormented by a free rein of arrow flying his way. I was only a creature in the night there was nothing I could do but watch. Stare. Stalk. He cryed out in pain when one hit his leg. Again I thought aw poor boy… no I can not help you. Help yourself that is the way. Now I could see that the preditors were stalking him now that they had heard his cry they left him for dead.
Only now it was I and the wounded boy. I was only a few feet away yet he never sensed me there beside him tryig to reach out not sure how to help…
Eventually I grew wary of hearing his screams for help. I pocked out of the underbrush, he shrieked when he saw me. Beauty in its cruelest forms. His face was familia enough that I almost remember him from my past….
It was when I ripped his shirt his mind had finally had enough and it did the only thing it could to protect itself, shut off. Somehow or another I pulled out the arrow. And took an attempt at bandaging the wound. Knowing there was a nearby town I half carried and drag the kid to a street. Still pasted out. He never knew. Until I went to leave I thought I had gotten away with my good dead unpaid. He rose his blond head and said " the next time we meet, I will repay my debt, Raven."
My first thought was oh boy this wont last he'll forget the next minute as soon as hes to safety.
6 years later….
like any other night I was sitting alone in my forest. Only waiting for something yummy to wander past… how lonely this life is for a person like me. When nothing wandered past I was just deciding to give for once I was gonna go to sleep when something caught my attention…the sound of sneakers on wet grass. "hey puppy," a vioce I knew all too well, "I missed you, where you been babe?" it was koga. He had been there through my fails, my falls. Always there to catch me. My best friend untill something he never knew happened to me.
He came over to me, took my hand, and we walked for a while. Sitting on the curb with koga was a lot more comforting for me than being alone as always. He had to go as soon as we sat down. Or somewhere close to that…before leaving, he did something for the first time he slowy leaned in, and kissed me on my lips. Whispered I love you in my ear, softly, and jogged down the street into the night I swear if it were possible I wouldn't have blushed. But it wasn't so I just sat there, dazed, awemazed. Curious if I would ever get a second. With remarkably just made me start laughing.
