FEEDBACK: Welcome
WARNING: If love between two women bothers you then get out NOW!
The topmost window of the old house opened to reveal a tiered Thorn. Her hair was slightly tousled from tossing and turning and her eyes were hooded but the cold night air whipped through her, waking her up. "Why can't I sleep? I'm, like, tiered as hell but for some reason I can't sleep." She leaned against the windowsill and looked up. The moon cast pale light over the world, with the stars twinkling behind it merrily. "How anything can be merry at this time of night is beyond me." The singer was about to turn and take another try at trying to sleep when a movement caught her eye. Two figures were coming towards the house. They stayed in the shadows but when they came closer they moved into the pale light of the moon. Thorn squinted her eyes and gasped to see Rose and Jaguar. Rose seemed to be helping Jaguar to walk. For some reason the taller woman's shirt seemed to gleam around the stomache area. The singer watched as the two women walked up to the house, inside and up the stairs.
~*~
"Ya know you could have helped me walk up these stairs." Rose grunted, slightly winded from their little escapades up the stairs.
"Hey. I thought you could handle lil ol' me." Jaguar gave an amused grin.
"One. You are not little. Two. I never said that. I said I'd help you."
"Okay. To make up for it I'll walk the rest of the way."
"There's only, like, three more feet!" Rose whined. Jaguar stifled a laugh.
"Yes but that's three feet you won't have to help me."
"Why you," Rose made a lunge for the woman but ran into the wall. "Ooof." Jaguar stifled a laugh as she popped her head out of the room.
"Still aren't that fast."
"Shut up." Rose growled.
~*~
Thorn listened to the playful banter between the two women. She smiled, thinking of herself, Dusk and Luna. They'd known each other since sixth grade. They were inseparable, especially after Dusk's father died of a heart attack in the eight grade. She remembered with a wide smile, the first time they'd ever decided to put together a band. It was fun but hard work trying to put together lyrics to sing and money to buy instruments. Now, five years later, they've got a record deal and are known worldwide. "God this is like a dream." She smiled. That's when she heard a loud, long howl rip through the peace. Thorn turned to look at the still open window. The wind sweeping in was laced with something. Some secret that would only reveal itself to the right one.
The singer walked back over to the window and leaned out to catch the latches. That was when she noticed something dart from the house. Something pure white and large.
"What the," She quickly closed the window and turned back to the door. Listening intently she heard nothing but silence.
That is until there was a loud crash. Thorn bolted out her door and across the hall. Her father made it to her just as she was about to knock.
"What was that?"
"I don't know daddy. I was just about to knock."
"Come in." Jaguar's voice sounded strained. Thorn opened the door then turned on the light to see Jaguar on the floor, a large pack on her stomach.
"What happened?" Mr. McKnight asked as he and Thorn helped Jaguar to get the pack off her.
"Slipped." The Hunter growled. She turned away quickly, slinging the pack over her shoulder and walking to her bed.
"Are you all right?"
"I'm fine, Mr. McKnight. Really." Jaguar said over her shoulder.
"All right. If you're sure." He said hesitantly.
"I am. Now good night."
The man nodded and walked out the door. Thorn made to follow him but closed the door instead.
"What do you want?"
"You're not fine. You're hurt."
"It's nothing."
"Is that why Rose was helping you to walk?"
"Thought you saw that." The blonde's voice sounded bemused. She turned to look at the raven-haired woman. "It's no big deal. Just ran in with the...local wildlife."
Thorn looked at the woman's stomach and gasped. "That's nothing you get from anything around here."
"Hey. Some of these raccoons can get pretty vicious."
"Not buying it. Let me see the cuts. Maybe I can help."
"You don't have to." Jaguar tried to protest.
"No I don't. But I want to." Thorn stepped closer and gently took hold of the woman's black shirt. "Now are you going to take it off or I'm I going to have to do it for you?"
Jaguar felt her ears heat up, both from the statement and the proximity of the one girl that made her dizzy with emotion. "Uhh," She shook her head and lifted up her shirt, throwing it to the side when she was done.
Thorn broke eye contact with the Hunter to look down at the damage. Her breath caught in her throat when she saw the gashes.
"Good god." She ran her fingertips just on the outer edge of the rings of blood. "Defiantly nothing around here could tear someone up this bad."
"It's no big deal." Jaguar said again, thanking the blood for covering up her goose bumping flesh.
"Why haven't you had these looked at?"
"Because it's late. The Doc's place is closed."
"I'll stitch 'em up for ya if you want." Thorn said without even thinking. She looked back up into golden eyes.
"Why would you do that?"
"Because if you don't you may, I dunno, die."
"I'll be fine."
"No you won't." Thorn grabbed Jaguar's hand, smiling inwardly at the feeling it sent through her, and led her over to the bed. "Lay down and I'll get the things I need."
"You don't have to do this."
"We've been through this before." Thorn locked eyes with the older woman, surprising her with how much caring there was in the emerald eyes. "I want to."
"Can you even?"
"Since my dad was a pharmacist he hung out with the Doc a lot. So did I. Dr. Williams taught me how to do it. Don't worry." With that she turned and walked quickly out. Jaguar listened silently as the woman moved downstairs, rummaged through the kitchen, pause then come back up stairs. In her hands was a needle and thread.
"You wouldn't by chance have any pain killers or booze do ya?" Jaguar asked, eyeing the needle.
"No. Sorry."
"That's fine." The Hunter looked around and found her leather belt. She grabbed it and folded it. "Guess I'll have to bite down on this."
"I'm sorry we don't have anything that can really help." Thorn said as she sat beside the tall woman.
"It's fine." Was all Jaguar said before sliding the leather into her mouth and biting down hard on it.
"Ready?" Jaguar only nodded. Thorn took a breath then proceeded to stitch up the wounds.
Every time skin was broken Jaguar flinched but made no sound, only averting her eyes from the scene. Thorn on the other hand was focusing intently. When Dr. Williams had taught her she was practicing on a dummy, not a real life thing. She just hoped she did all right.
She also hoped that Jaguar would be all right. The woman wasn't making a sound but her eyes said enough. This was causing her a great deal of pain.
'Guess her threshold for pain is higher then most people.' Thorn thought. She tried to quickly finish up the stitching but without being sloppy. She knew that if she didn't do this right then Jaguar could end up with major scarring.
Jaguar's teeth dug into the leather. The all too familiar taste of cowhide mixed with the slight traces of blood. When the first entry had been made she had bitten her tongue hard enough to draw blood. She tried to focus on something else. Her eyes roamed around the room but finally simply landed on Thorn. The singer was focusing so intently on the wounds it surprised Jaguar. Deft hands moved over the tattered flesh smoothly, making confident incisions.
'She's not to bad at this.' Jaguar thought with a smile, though it quickly turned into a grimace as the needle entered again.
"All right." Thorn said quietly. "I think that's it." She tied off the thread as best as she could, bent down and bit off the access with her teeth. Jaguar gulped at the feeling of Thorn's soft hair and hot breath on her skin.
'Relax.' Jaguar kicked herself mentally while Thorn stood up and walked into the adjoining bathroom. The Hunter listened to the running water, wishing she could take a cold shower. Being a Hunter had taught herself to keep her cool under any condition but right now that reserve was slowly breaking, crumbling and melting under Thorn's gentle fingers and hot breath.
"You going to be all right now Jaguar?" The singer's smooth voice snapped her out of her reverie.
Jaguar shook her head mentally before looking at the woman that was destroying her well-planted walls. "What?"
"I said are you going to be all right?"
"Yeah...I-I'm fine." Jaguar sat up just as Thorn sat down. Their faces were scant inches away. Jaguar looked up into Thorn green eyes and felt herself stop. Their eyes locked and neither moved. The Hunter breathed in deep, catching the feint smell of leather and perfume from the woman in front of her. Both could practically feel the unresolved passion in the air between them.
"Jaguar." Thorn breathed. Inch by inch the two moved closer together, until their lips met in a hesitant kiss. A shock passed between them, making them pull back suddenly but as soon as they separated their lips craved another kiss.
Thorn felt as if she had just jumped into a pool of icy fire. Her whole body was tingling, especially her lips. 'I can't believe I got that kind of sensation from just a kiss.'
Unknowingly to the woman, Jaguar was feeling the exact same way. 'I've kissed girls before but...I've never gotten a reaction like that.'
They moved closer again and this time, when lips touched lips, there was more certainty, more passion. Jaguar wrapped an arm around Thorn's waist and pulled her down into her lap as the singer entangled her long fingers in the woman's platinum hair. Jaguar's tongue snaked out and traced Thorn's bottom lip, tasting the traces of lipstick and lip-gloss. Thorn willingly opened her mouth and soon the two's tongues danced and rubbed against one another. If not for their need to breath the two would have continued that electrifying kiss.
"Wow." Thorn breathed, her lungs crying out for oxygen. Jaguar only nodded as their eyes locked once more. Silent words passed between the two as they came together for another kiss. They were so wrapped up in each other that neither saw the figures standing at the door, peering in through the crack.

"What are they doing?" Nathaniel asked.
"Shh." Rose hissed. "You shouldn't be seeing this Nathan. Go on. Shoo." Nathaniel stepped back but didn't leave. Celeb took his place, scowling darkly.
"That woman is nothing more then trouble. She was snooping in our room today."
"You're just pissed 'cuz she got by ya. I told ya you should lock the door."
"I didn't know that people would go noising about!"
"Will you shut up!" Rose hissed again. She pushed the tall black man and Nathaniel down the hall and down the stairs. When they reached the front room Rose spun Celeb around. "Get this Celeb. Jaguar seems happy. You and I both know it's been a long fucking time since she's been happy. Ever since that incident with Cú she's fuckin' cut herself off from all of us. Now if you go and mess that up for her I swear I'll change and tear you to shreds."
"You wouldn't dare." Celeb hissed back.
"I would. I promised that I'd repay Jaguar back no matter what and if that means she's happy then I'll do it."
"But not at the cost of one of my friends." A gruff voice replied. Rose yelped in surprise and whirled around. There standing at the foot of the stairs was a slightly irked Jaguar.
"Jag! What are you doing down here? I-I thought you were asleep." Rose stuttered.
"Stop lyin'. I wasn't asleep and you well now it. Hey Nathaniel." Jaguar bent down and picked the boy up, wincing at the pain in her stomach. As she straitened her golden eyes locked onto those of Celeb and Rose. "If you guys wanna spy on someone you had best not yell like you two were."
Both looked down at their feet in shame and embarrassment. Jaguar shook her head and walked forward. "It's all right." She laid a hand on Rose's shoulder. "Thank you for wanting to stand up for me." Her hand traveled to Celeb's. "And thank you for wanting to protect me. You guys are good friends. You just gotta polish a few skills is all."
"Thanks...Jaguar." The younger woman mumbled. She looked up. "But...what about,"
"Thorn?" Jaguar finished for her friend. Rose nodded hesitantly. "She went back to her room. Tomorrow we're going to have a talk."
"What are you going to talk about?" The black man asked.
"Quiet a few things."
"Are you going to tell her about your past?"
"Dunno. I don't want to."
"Why?" Nathaniel asked. Jaguar looked into the boy's innocent brown eyes and sighed.
"Because Nat...there are some things in my past that if she found out Thorn would hate me for."
"Like what you are?" Rose asked. Jaguar turned to look at her in shock.
"Wh,"
"Jaguar. You're ashamed of what you are. You need to embrace it. Not fear it."
"I don't fear anything." The Hunter growled as she let the boy down.
"Then why don't you change? Why don't you let your animal side out to run free?"
"Because I," But Jaguar couldn't bring herself to finish. She turned away and screwed her eyes shut, willing away the screams that filled her ears or the wash of crimson that flooded the darkness of her mind.
"Jaguar. Don't let that stop you. Stop letting you fear control you." The blonde spoke gently. Jaguar whirled around and glared down at the woman.
"I'm not afraid and nothing controls me!" She snapped. Rose shrunk away from the woman's fury and gulped. Jaguar turned and stormed back upstairs then slammed the door shut. The small woman straitened.
"You shouldn't have brought that up Ro."
"I know Cel. I know but she has to get past that fear."
"Why is Jaguar afraid to change? It's fun." Nathaniel smiled broadly. Rose bent down and picked her little brother up.
"Because little one. Jaguar fears that if she changes she might not be able to change back."
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~As I wrote this story I realized it is a little weird...okay really weird that Thorn can stitch people up. If ya wanna flame me about it not fitting go ahead. I DON'T CARE!! It worked with the story. Also if you don't like the love between Thorn and Jaguar you have two options; ONE: Stop reading and leave. Or TWO:...Which is the same as one.
