I chose this as the first story to complete, So be patient while I go through the chapters and change things, and sorry for the long wait to see more on this story. I own the story, Some character looks I don't own, but their personalities I do. Fair warning, there is some lime in this chapter, enjoy.
Characters I'm using from Bleach
Kira, Gin, Aizen
A young blond woman, wearing extremely showy clothes is walking down an ally. Very frustrated with the fact that she hasn't gotten laid at any time now, She stops and groans, closing her eyes, "Why can't I seem to get what I want? Am I not desirable"? She then looks at herself and notes that she appears more than desirable, she actually believes she looks desperate. She sighs once more and looks up, she narrows her eyes some as she can swear she seen someone jump from one roof over to the other.
"What do we have here"? Asks a deep male voice from behind, startling her, she jumps, then turns to look at him. Realizing the person is a male, she instantly goes into her flirtatious self.
"Someone who is in desperate need for a satisfying time", she says as she begins as she walks over to him, "With a yummy man such as yourself". She inspects him as she approaches, giving her step a sudden bounce to make her breasts jiggle in a way that drives men crazy. The slicked back jet black hair, his dark eyes that appear amusing, the tight leather pants, how his T-shirt clings to his muscular chest, makes the woman want him even more.
The man smirks and looks her up and down, licking his lips, "This is my lucky day.. You look delicious". The young girl walks the rest of the way seductively toward him, swinging her hips just the right way. She places her hand on his chest, sliding it down as she licks her lips at him.
"I see you aren't kidding when you said you were in desperate need", he voices, a grin coming to his face. She shakes her head and tilts her hand down, letting him know what kind of fun she is looking for. The man grabs her hand and pulls her closer to him and whispers in her ear, "Not here, maybe we should go back to my place".
"No"! She barks, her eyes go wide, then she puts her seductive look back on her face, "I want it now.. No, I need it now, please I'm begging you", she pleads, not wanting to wait to get what he is going to give. He just chuckles at her urgency and with his free hand he reaches up and grabs her breast, squeezing. She trails her free hand down to his crotch stroking him through the tight leather pants, wanting it out and in her now.
Out of no where he lets out a low growl, then pins her against the wall, one hand on her neck. She smiles at him, "You like it rough? That's fine with me". He then grins again, showing rather large fangs, she doesn't notice. Slowly she manages to snake her hand into his pants feeling the skin on her hand from his erected form. She moans as she strokes him, imagining him fucking the hell right out of her. The man then leans in and kisses her neck, licking and nibbling some, his free hand trailing over her body.
"At least you're going to take away my restlessness", he says.
"Do your worst", she replies. His grin widens, showing the size of his pearly white fangs, just from those words he instantly sinks his fangs into her neck, causing her to let out a breathy moan. He presses his body firmly against hers as he slowly drains her of her life force. She moans loudly and closes her eyes as the strange pleasure overwhelms her, slowly she begins to still, her moans eventually become silent. Her eyes go wide as she finally realizes what is happening, nothing is left inside her to fight back. After taking all she could offer he steps away from her, licking his lips of access blood and watches as her body slides down the wall and falls limp on the ground.
"Thank you for satisfying me", he grins down at her, "Too bad you didn't get what you wanted". With that he disappears, leaving the echo of his laughter behind.
2 Days Later
I sit in the class, fiddling with my pencil, I've been done my work for some time. I peer at the clock sighing, ten minutes till the bell rings. Why is it when you want the time to fly it seems to just go by even slower? Groaning on the inside I look back down at my paper, going over everything I had written down.
After looking over the whole thing twice, I look back up at the clock. As my eyes land on it the bell rings. Grinning, I quickly get out of my desk just like all the others and headed for the teacher's desk. The room was silent but the moment the bell rang the silence exploded into a lot of chatter.
I make my way into the hall, weaving myself through the crowd, books in hand. My gaze is cast down, I hate huge crowds, all ways have as far as I can remember. I suddenly stop as I'm sure I heard my name being called within the crowd.
I look around and spot a flash of brown weave through the group of people that move around me.
"Hikaru"! I hear now closer. I catch sight of the girl who has been calling me, she has dirty blond hair that is darker than mine and shorter. Her hair reaches her shoulders, her hazel eyes gaze at me as she stops in front of me. Her clothes aren't showing, but very curvy. I smile down at her as she breathes heavily, trying to catch the breath that had managed to run away from her.
"You should exercise more", I point out in a matter of fact tone.
"Easy for you to say, you've got all the time in the world to keep in shape", she complains at me as she looks up.
"Do you want something, Malissa"? I ask crossing my arms with my books between them and my rather small chest.
"I was wondering if you've thought about what we discussed last night"? She asks standing at her full height, she is just two inches shorter then me. I narrow my eyes at her, then turn and begin walking, she follows close behind me.
"I've told you over the phone, no, my answer hasn't changed", I groan.
"Come on, please", she pleads as she comes in front of me, walking backwards, "I've already told Tatianna that you are coming. She has already gotten the tickets for all of us". I stop and roll my eyes at her once more.
I don't want to go to that place. Not only will I be surrounded by a bunch of horn dogs, I'll also get left behind again. She stops us from walking, "Please", she pleads.
"Ok, ok, I'll go", I sigh, "Just promise me that you won't leave me like all the other times".
"I'll be sure no one does", she says, then rushes off to her locker. I groan and stop in front of mine. I open it then place my books in it, then close it.
"I sure hope they don't ditch me again", I say. I then turn and start toward the doors leading out. On my way out I hear, "Have you heard"? I stop and look over, two guys are talking by the water fountain.
"Another young teen has gone missing", the same guy finishes.
"I've heard, who hasn't"? The other guy asks, clearly annoyed from the conversation.
"That's true. Do we have an idea, or they have an idea of what or who is doing it"? The first voice responds.
"Maybe it's a vampire", laughs the other one. The two laugh as they turn and walk off, I look at the picture on the wall. I walk over to it, the words missing are bold on the top. My eyes widen at the girls smiling face, I recognize her, she's the one that always talked about laying with any man she sets her eyes on. Sighing, I turn and start walking again.
"She got what was coming to her", I walk out of the school, taking a few steps before stopping and looking up.
"Looks like rain", I couldn't help but say. The sky is filled with a bunch of dark clouds. I shake my head, then walk out of the school yard, making my way home.
Few Hours Later
I walk into a small house, a large garden around it, a pond in the center of the yard. I smile at it and close the door behind me. A few barks and a small dog tears down the hall, her tail going 100 miles an hour. I grin down at the brown fur ball and lean over, picking the excited dog up.
"I've missed you so much. You've been a good girl right"? I ask, all she does is try to get her tongue on my face. I keep her at a distance so she can't reach. Her name is Little Foot, she is my mothers miniature Chihuahua. She's 5 years old, her gray hairs are starting to show themselves.
"Hikaru, that you"? A woman's voice comes down the hall.
"Yes", I call back to her.
"One of your friends called, she said for you to meet them at the diner", she calls back shortly after. I narrow my eyes, place the dog on the floor and she does circles around me. I really don't want to go, yet here I am, going to go out with them. Knowing all too well what is going to happen.
"Thanks mom", I call back to let her know she heard me. I then make my way upstairs, Little Foot rushes up ahead of me. She stops at the top of the steps and turns to watch me coming up. I smile at her, she's so happy to see me, so much so that it seems she wags her whole body as her tail goes. She gets out of the way once I reach her, I turn and walk down the hall, opening up a closed door. The little dog rushes into the room, instantly jumping up on the bed.
"You're a crazy little critter, aren't you"? I ask as I pet her on the head. With a final sigh, I turn around and walk over to the closet, I might as well get ready. I open the door, then shuffle through the small amount of clothes I have, looking for something that is presentable and not at all flashy.
I take out a black shirt and pants, both of which have pink flower designs on them, the pants are bell bottoms, the flowers at the hems of the pants, making their way up to the knees on the outside of the legs. The shirt has pink flowers on the sleeves and around the bottom of it.
"I knew there was a need for these at some point", I say as I turn and look at the dog, she tilts her head, her tail wagging at me. Smiling, I place them on the bed and walk over to my dresser, I figured I should pull out some clean undergarments.
"Well, as much as I don't want to go, I might as well take a shower. You never know, maybe just maybe I'll find someone there", I say looking at the dog. I grab my clothes, then walk down the hall, then into the bathroom.
I walk over to the tub and turn the water on, letting it run for a bit as I walk over to the mirror. I look into it, the person staring right back is unsure of all of this. Her blue eyes are tired, her face hasn't seen a happy smile for some time now. With a sigh, I reach back and pull out my pony tail, letting my hair fall around my shoulders. Some of the hair covers part of my right eye. I pick up the brush and brush my hair to make it easier to deal with after the shower.
Once that's done, I strip myself of clothes, then step into the tub, sliding the shower curtain over to the wall for some privacy. I allow others to go to the washroom while I shower, at times I take a long time in showers, it's just so calming and relaxing. Sadly though it doesn't actually wash the worries and sadness away. I turn a knob that allows the water to shower over you. I let it soak my hair before I shampoo it, then shave, rinse shampoo out of my hair, then condition. I put my conditioned hair up then body wash. Then I rinse everything, for a few minutes longer, I just enjoy the water sliding down my form.
Turning the water off always seems so disappointing, but I manage and dry myself. Then get dressed, then do my hair, part of it up, the back part down. I don't wear any make up or perfume, I personally see no point to it. I do however put deodorant on. I then walk out of the bathroom, back into my room and go through a small wardrobe that stands beside the window.
"Found it", I excitedly blurt as I pull out a rather nice black sweater, it has flower designs on it, and put it on.
"I think this is perfect, my friends can't complain about this get up", I silently praise myself as I look at my reflection in the full body mirror. As I stare at myself, I get a feeling of something missing. Then something within lights up, "I have to put something in my hair". With that I rush over to my closet and pull out my jewelry box. Rummaging through it in search of the only thing that will look good with this outfit.
Grinning widely I pull out a large bobby pin, but it has a giant rose like flower on it, black and pink, the tips are pink. I put it on my left side, then look back in the mirror, smiling at my reflection.
"Now I look perfect", I nod my head at myself. I turn, pet Little Foot on the head, then rush down the stairs. I don't care much for what my feet look like, I just toss on my running shoes, white, gray and black.
"I'm heading out, I'll be back later"! I yell down the hall.
"Alright, just give me a call if you aren't coming home", my mother calls to me. With that, I open the door, then close it behind me and walk down the path, walking through our front gate and walking down the sidewalk.
Couple hours later
As I approach the building I sigh as I don't see any of my friends there. I narrow my eyes as I stop at the side of it, "Well this is what happens". I then lean against the wall, arms crossed as I watch all the people passing by. We always meet here, since its safest to stand alone in this spot compared to the bar we are going to. This place is always busy.
"I'm sure they are going to do it again", I can't help but voice. They've always promised they wouldn't, but once they find a play thing they tend to leave me alone in that bar. Very friend like, right? Yeah, not a chance.
"Hikaru, over here", Malissa's voice makes me look over. I smile at her and the other woman who has long dark, dirty blond hair, light brown eyes as they walk over to me.
"You look ready to go", She voices as she looks me up and down.
"Yup, I figured I would try to dress up. Since last time you both got upset with me", I answer my eyes narrowed at her. She smiles sheepishly at me, "Come on, its an outing, you have to look good for it".
"I don't have to look good to go to a place like that if I don't want the attention", I breath. She just smiles at me.
"Right and you dressed up this time"? She stats a smirk coming to her features.
"Shut up, Tatianna, lets go", I retort, then brush past the two as they laugh at me. We walk down the road, a distance away from where we meet. We then turn down a dark street and lighting up the end of it is a huge sign.HERE BE BEER
I still don't get why they have to come to this one, there are plenty of others. Much nicer others with actual decent people in them. This one is a bit dirty, most guys that come here are those who won't be able to get a date even if they got a makeover. This street, even though it ends at the bar, it's dark and dingy, it even has a bitter smell to it, as though something is always rotting here.
"Tell me again why we come here"? I ask as we get in line.
"Cause its the cheapest one, and I can get free tickets", Tatianna answers.
"Right, cheap", I voice. Hopefully there is going to be better looking people here than last time. God, all those guys... A rat would run away from them. Hell, I'd take my chances with a rat. I take a step closer to Malissa as someone touches me.
As it comes closer to us handing the tickets, we hear people screaming than a man getting shoved out by one of the very masculine security guards, "And don't come back again"! His deep, gravelly voice booms through the air. The man tosses him one last look before getting up and staggering his way to the main street.
"Sorry about that ladies", the bouncer at the door says as the big guy goes back inside.
"ID's please", he holds his hands out. We all hand him our ID's, he looks at each one, then at us, nods his head and hands them back. Tatianna hands him the tickets, he looks them over then nods, gesturing for us to go ahead in. We do without any hesitation, that though, was hard on my part.
"Who's ready to party"? Tatianna asks as she dances.
"I sure am, and hopefully getting laid by the time the night ends", Malissa pipes in and dances her way with Tatianna over to the bar. I just shake my head and follow the two.
"Don't forget", I say as I come beside Malissa.
"Forget what"? She asks. I narrow my eyes at her, 'She forgot'.
"What you promised me", I answer annoyed.
"Oh, right, Tatianna, we won't leave without her, will we"? She turns to our other friend.
"Of course not", Tatianna answers a huge smile on her face. I look at the two, they really meant they will leave me here. Such liars, why do I trust them again?
"Who's getting what"? Tatianna asks as the bar keep comes toward us.
"I'm getting nothing, I'm good as is", I answer. Both of them give me stern looks, "If you don't drink anything, then guy's won't bother with you".
"And you'd be the oddball in this whole bar".
"Not to mention a kill joy". Groaning, I close my eyes and shake my head, "I said no, so no".
"Alright, suit yourself", Tatianna replies with a shrug, she and Malissa order something for themselves to drink.
"I guess you called dibs on finding us seats", Malissa then suggests.
"Sure, why not", I say with a shrug. I turn around and look around, seeking out a good empty spot, this place is actually hard to get a decent one. Over in the back corner, she spots a three seated table, she then makes her way over to it, pushing through the large crowd that is standing around. The table is in the far corner of the room. I like it over there, no one is around. I take a seat, where I can see everything that is going on. Instantly noticing my friends have found some men.
"Already"? I couldn't help but ask. Sighing, I look around the room, seeing if I could somehow gain the courage to go talk to someone who looks like my type. My gaze lands on three people on the other side of the seating area, two of them look like twins, both of them have dark brown hair, the third one has blond hair, from the look of it, some of it covers the right side of his face. The man turns and looks in my direction, a half smile on his face as our eyes meet, I jerk my head away, my cheeks burning some.
"Stupid, stupid", I rant, beating myself up mentally, you never just gaze at someone like that. But he was so hot, how could I not. In fact, those three I hadn't seen here before. I groan, then look back over to where my friends are, realize they aren't coming over. In fact, I see how close they are to the two guys, which means they've gotten their targets.
"God, why did I come in the first place? All they are doing is leaving me on my own, while they make plans to take off", groaning, I put my head down, fighting the raging storm going through me because of how stupid I truly am.
"Excuse me", a soft smooth, yet deep voice catches my attention, "May I sit here"? I slowly lift my head, my eyes widening at the man before me. It's the man that I had been starring at not too long ago. Something about him makes me feel uneasy, yet at the same time very weak. If I were standing I'm sure my knees would give out on me. I nod my head, knowing my voice wouldn't work, I didn't want to be rude, the guy is just simply hot. I'd be stupid if I said no.
He smiles at me and pulls the chair out, then takes a seat. I manage to tear my gaze off the perfect person in front of me in hopes to see my friends coming over, only to realize they are no where to be seen.
"Wow, just perfect", I groan, "My friends have ditched me".
"I'm glad I came over", the man says making me look in his direction, "Now you're not alone".
"Thanks, but no thanks. I'm not huge on talking to strangers", I reply. My stomach turns at my words, now I'm taking it out on him. Just great. I then look around a few more times hoping I just overlooked them.
"If you don't want company the why are you still sitting here"? He asks. I look back over to him, the shape of his face actually drawing my attention. I watch as his muscles tense in his jaw then untenses.
"Cause I'm sure they are going to come out of nowhere", I answer, it's only wishful thinking though. He leans back in the chair, crossing his arms, his gaze bores into me. Feeling really uncomfortable, I look around again, only this time my gaze landed on his two friends. They both have dorky smiles on their faces, and waving at me.
"I'm sorry, but I should get going", I say as I get to my feet.
"Would you mind staying and chatting for a bit"? He asks his face looks as though I had let him down. This is the reason why I don't like talking to strangers. Shaking my head, I turn and begin walking away.
"Then in that case, be careful, it is dangerous to walk alone", he says before I get away from listening distance. I look back at him, giving him a small smile before colliding with something soft and firm.
"I'm so sorry", I say as I look up instantly noting the black eyes, "I wasn't watching where I had been going". I suddenly get a feeling of red flags about the man, maybe I had been better off with that blond stranger back there.
"That's just not going to cut it", he begins a smile coming to his lips, "But I can think of something that will". Suddenly feeling very uncomfortable with this man, I take a step back only to get pulled closer to the man, "I told you, there is something else that will make me forget about you pumping into me".
"I'm sorry, but I need to go to my friends, they are waiting for me", I hold in my fear as best I can as I attempt to get out of his grip. He lets out a low groan, that sounded oddly like a growl, "I'm afraid I won't take no for an answer". He parts my legs, then grinds against me. I hold back a groan as I feel his hardness against me.
"Come with me, I promise it won't hurt", he whispers in my ear. I close my eyes, trying to get this sick, yet aroused feeling from coming over me. I let out a startled gasp as I'm forced out of his grip and collide with a solid form behind me.
"I'm sorry but she is with me", that familiar voice fills my ears. I look back, the blond had just saved my ass, but looking at him and the man who wanted to do things with me, made me feel really sorry for the blond. The guy might be tall, but he is skinny compared to the dark eyed man. Regardless, I then move behind him, holding tightly onto his loose shirt, my heart feels as though it's going to burst right out of my chest.
"You sure"? The man asks a grin coming to his face, "I don't smell you on her, nor do I see the proof".
"I asked her to meet me here, We've been seeing each other, but at a distance, isn't that right"? The man asks as he looks back at me. I see the uncertainty all over his face, the beads of sweat rolling down his temples.
"Y-yes, that's right", I try to play along, I'm not sure how well I'll be able to do.
"That's rich, I don't think she even knows you, I mean she did leave you at that table all alone", the man taunts, he takes a step forward. I look over as the two brown haired men come to either side of this man.
"Kira, is this guy giving you some trouble"? One of them asks.
"Oh look, he has friends", the dark eyed man laughs. I take this time to look at him, his jet black hair is slicked back, he is wearing leather pants, a dark T-shirt.
"You three better get out of the way. She is clearly not with you guys, so I just want to take her", the man says his eyes narrowed as he looks at them.
"Awe, come down, try ta be a bit nicer to one another, leave the poor girl alone", interrupts a siren voice from behind the black haired man. I look behind him as he looks back, my eyes widen as they catch sight of silver hair, then the large grin on his face. My stomach does flips as he steps in front of the man.
"Why should I, she owes me a good time for bumping into me"! The dark haired man snaps. The silver haired man turns and seems to look at me, can't really tell since his eyes are closed, "I don't think so".
"I'm sure it was clearly an accident, why don't ya leave the woman alone", he says as he turns his back to us, and faces the man. I feel the blond man shaking some, I look at him and his gaze is fixated on the silver haired man. The atmosphere around us suddenly becomes very stifling, I have no idea as to why. Then suddenly the dark haired man tisk's then turns and walks off, two men following behind him.
I release my hold on the blond's shirt, stepping out from behind him, "Thanks". The silver haired man turns and grins, "My suggestion to ya, would be not ta come back here".
"Why"? I managed to muster up. Something about this man makes me, well feel strange. I feel as though I've seen him before.
"That man comes here often", he answers.
"Why are you back"? I hear the man behind me whisper, I think nothing of this.
"Kira", I hear, I then look over at one of the two brown haired men, the blond looks over at them, "What"?
"We should get going", the other answers. The blond known as Kira turns to me, a small smile on his face, "As much as I would love to stick around, something has come up". With that he looks from me to the man standing before me.
"Would you like me to walk you home, or"? Kira asks. I shake my head, "Thanks, but I'll be fine".
"Be careful", he whispers, then turns and walks off with the other two. I turn around only to look around as the silver haired man vanished. Shrugging my shoulders, I continue walking, this time I watch where I'm going. I open the door and walk out after one last look around, hoping my friends are still around. Taking a deep breath of the cool air, the sky a lot darker than it should be for 6 PM.
I take another breath and begin walking. I walk over to the fence, stopping and sighing, then looking at the ground. I feel very confused, and hurt. Not to mention extremely pissed, "Why the hell did they leave"?
"I'm such an idiot, I should of just stayed with no"! I rant frustrated with this whole ordeal. I stand there silently fuming, watching the toe of my show move as I move my toes within it, trying to calm my nerves. I jump as a sudden hand gets placed on my shoulder, looking up to see the silver haired man grinning down at me.
"Sorry", he says simply.
"What do you want"? I ask crossing my arms, attempting to look tough, though I'm sure he knows how tough I really am, from my display in that bar.
"Just saw ya over here, wanted to make sure ya are okay", he answers.
"Oh", I say ashamed with myself, "I'm fine". He tilts his head at me, clearly judging me, "Sure ya are".
"I am really", I try more firmly this time.
"I don't believe ya", the man says his grin slowly disappearing.
"Well, I'm telling the truth, or rather part of the truth, I'm just really angry", I try.
"Sure, ya angry"? He asks his face now showing amusement, "And not upset"? I look at him, eyes wide, I've been hiding it really well. I reach over to grab the fence only to fail at perceiving where it is located, I stumble some, suddenly feeling very light headed.
Two strong arms catch me, the warmth of the body envelops me. I open my eyes and look up at the mans face, now clearly concerned.
"I'm sorry, don't know what's come over me", I confusedly look away. I try to pull away only to find out he won't let me go.
"I don't think I want ta let ya go", he whispers right beside my ear, causing a shiver to run up my spine. I let out a jagged breath as he brings his face down, his nose brushing the side of my face, his lips lightly brush at the juncture that separates my neck from my shoulders. I let out a gasp to the sudden sensation that simple action causes me.
I will my body to get away from him, but it doesn't move, I close my eyes as he slowly trails his tongue across the spot he just kissed, my mouth falling open. His breath cooling the spot. Then he places his lips around that skin, I feel the slight brush of a point. His tongue swipes a few times before he gently sucks the spot. I let out a low moan, my hands reach up and I clutch his shirt within a week grip.
This strange new sensation falls over me, as he continues to suck the spot, the odd brush of his tongue soothes the warm feeling it causes. My body shudders as I feel his hands trace my curves, gently moving up and down my sides rhythmically. Shortly after he removes his mouth, then slowly trails kisses up my neck, over my jaw, then brushes my lips gently with his own. I let out a breath as he moves away from me.
I open my eyes and look at him, his hands still on my hips, I gasp at seeing red eyes staring back at me.
"So beautiful", I gasp out. He grins, then leans in, "Only for ya, my dear". He whispers, then completely lets go of me. I look at him a bit disappointed, all fear I had of this man just disappears after that, whatever just happened, happened. I suddenly have this feeling of wanting more. I take a step back as my mind clears some, realizing what just happened.
I watch as he looks to the side, then his eyes close, "I'm afraid I have ta go". He turns and begins walking, after two steps he stops, "By the way, the name is Gin". I watch the man go, disappearing around a corner in the distance.
"W-what just happened"? I ask. Shaking my head, I look around and still no sign of my friends. I then sigh and turn, then walk down the road, making my way to the main street. Once there I stop and absent-minded I place my hand on the spot where I'm sure a hickey has appeared.
"Considering, that didn't feel too bad", I couldn't help but say, thinking about his touch, how he made me feel makes my heart race a pace faster. I can't help but get this feeling of need for a complete stranger in a way that confuses me. It's frustrating to me to think he did something to me that I would otherwise not want.
"Again, what happened"? I couldn't help but ask. As much as I try to play it over and over in my mind, there was no need for him to come into my personal space like that. But then that sudden feeling that overcame me, a feeling of weakness. Could he somehow have something to do with that? Shaking my head, I start walking, trying to think of other things, but the man who calls himself Gin.
"Gin", I try, testing how it felt to roll that name off my tongue, it somehow seems familiar. I then take my hand off my neck as I turn into an ally, stupid I know. I can't help but want to be at home, I've been through a lot today. At this point I don't care if I run into anyone.
By the time I make it home, it's past 9 PM. Thankfully, my parents are sleeping, I walk up the stairs, walk down the hall and walk into my room. Instantly walking over to my bed. I lay on it and hold a pillow close to my chest, my heart flutters in my chest.
"Why do I feel this way, just thinking about that man"? I whisper to myself. I smile as my mother's dog jumps up on the bed, she walks right over to me and hugs me before laying beside me. I close my eyes, hoping a good night's sleep will cure what is going on inside me.
