Chapter 4
Jane
Spring 56 degrees
"Where do you live?" John asks.
"Oh, I live on the top floor of the library."
"No, you spend your whole day at the library and you live there to!" He says sarcastically. I chuckle.
"Do you ever get a break?" He asks.
"Yes, actually, spring is the only time I'm here. For the rest of the time, I'm gone. Oh! I almost forgot. I printed this for your sister." I hand him a piece of paper I printed.
"What's this." He grabs he paper and starts to read.
"There have been studies about wolves and how they travel," I begin," They will leave for a couple months then roam back to their group. I'm pretty sure that Sheila will show up soon."
Very soon since this is the last night I will be human. This was our 5th date this spring and when I'd see the wolves peek through the trees, they were not to happy.
John walks me to the apartments above the library.
I stop outside the door.
"Would you like to come in?" I ask.
"Sure."
I open the door and put our coats on the coat wrack. I turn on the light.
"You can sit on the-" I turned around to find my pack leader in human form on the couch. In my pink robe. He looked super silly with his tight muscles in a scrawny robe.
"Oh my god. What in the love of Faolan are you doing here!?"
"Who is this?" George, my pack leader, asks.
"Oh, how rude of me, George, this is John. John, George." I introduce.
"Oh, um, hi. Uh, are you two… together?" John asks uncomfortably. George and I look at each other and start laughing until we're in tears.
"Oh, no," I catch a breath," We couldn't even if we wanted to."
"Why did you say that, I mean if you wanted to why couldn't you?" John asks. I turn to George.
"If we wanted to," George says. Stopping, we shiver at the thought," we couldn't because it's forbidden."
"Oh, still confused, but whatever," John replies," Guess I'll see you around Jane." He waves leaving my apartment.
