Were wolf: chapter 5. Moments
We were standing in front of the hotel. My feet were aching and my legs were tired. We had been to what felt like a billion cafes, a thousand shops and caught way to many trains. Now we were standing at the steps. I glanced at my watch. 9:00 pm.
"Well you certainly kept me busy" I said laughing.
Smiling he lent forward. I felt his lips touch my ear as he whispered "I hope you can survive a week of this".
I laughed and was about to take a step back when I felt his hand cup my chin. I looked up. My eyes met his as our lips collided. I wrapped my arms around his neck as he kissed me sweetly. We pulled apart to breath.
"I'm sorry" he said.
"Why?" I asked even to me my voice sounded sad.
"We only met today and here I am kissing you."
"I don't mind, and after a day like today it's like I have always known you" I said. "Ok even to me that sounded corny, but that doesn't change the fact that it is true" I finished.
He laughed and lent forward to kiss me again.
"See you tomorrow, 10 am got it?" he asked. I nodded and turned and walked up the stairs and in to the hotel. A huge smile on my lips.

I unfolded my legs and placed down my book. Glancing at the clock I saw that it was twelve thirty. Time to go. I slipped out of the hotel aware that I had to be back by three. I needed to run. I ran towards central park at an inhuman speed. It is the only wilderness I can run in here. All normal people had work the next day so I was unlikely to be seen. The only other people out would probably be drunk. I figured I was safe.
I slipped in the park and quickly tied my clothing to my ankle. I let the fire rip through me. My body forced itself to change shape. I fell on to four paws. I suddenly noticed Seth's voice in my head.
"Leah!"
"Hey Sethy boy what's up?" I asked
"Nothing much to be honest. No vamps lately it's just patrolling. Every one here is so boring all they think about is imprinting or the person they imprinted on. It's making me sick" he said mentally poking is tongue out in disgust.
"You'll understand when you imprint Seth…oh sorry Leah" Jacob's mind voice said.
I growled mentally and pushed my feet in to the ground springing into a run. I felt the wind rip through my coat as I dodged trees and felt elated with the freedom of running.
The others didn't think as they let their minds fall into their runs. I looked up at the sky noticing the coming roundness of the moon.
"Well guys I better get back, hotel closes at 3" I said.
"Cya" they coursed.
I phased back into my human form. The pain was less turning back, than turning into the wolf form. Quickly dressing I started running back to the hotel. I slowed my pace as I reached the hotel's street. As I walked through the shadows left in the spaces between the lamp posts, I felt a pair of cool arms slip around my waist.
I panicked and was about to wrench myself free when I heard his voice.
"Hello" His English voice whispered in my ear.
"Hey" I replied a smile playing on my lips. "Were you waiting for me?" I asked.
"Maybe" he laughed turning me to face him.
I reached up to kiss him. When he pulled away he asked me where I went.
"I was walking through Central park" I replied as he raised an eyebrow.
"What?" I asked.
"Nothing" he said shaking his head. "Just be careful, some scary people hang round there at night"
"I can take care of my self" I said annoyed.
He just smiled at me and let me go.
"We better get inside before they lock up, don't for get 10 am tomorrow" he said grinning.

I woke up when he knocked on the door.
"You ready yet??" he called.
Groaning I pulled myself off the bed, regretting my lack of sleep. I pulled my clothes on and opened the door
"Hello" he smiled.
"Good morning" I said taking his hand and walking down the stairs. "So where to today?" I asked him.
"Well I know another place for breakfast, and then I was thinking we could climb up some high buildings and go to the statue of liberty and…" he went on.
When we got outside we ran to find a bus stop. After boarding the bus he started telling me about the different places we passed. I smiled taking it all in, enjoying every word he said.
We got out at a small little café.
"This place has the best milkshakes" he told me.
"In the morning?" I asked thinking of ice-cream filled milkshakes.
"Its almost lunch time if you think about it" he told me.
We sat down and I picked up the menu.
"What do you suggest?" I asked.
"Well... the bacon surprise is good." He said taking my menu.
A waiter came over and asked us our orders.
"Two bacon surprises and some milshakes" Tony said.
I sat back and smiled watching his face. I took in his high cheek bones and the way his curly hair fell on his face, his lips tweaked up in what seemed an ever present smile. His green eyes gazed at me in return. I breathed in deeply taking in the smells around me. My heightened senses took in every tiny detail. I could smell the bacon sizzling in the back kitchen, the rosewater perfume on a woman a few tables away, the old vinyl from the booths. I focused my nose on him and took in his sent. It was like the smell of the ocean mixed with rain and a small hint of ice. His green eyes seemed to laugh as if he knew what I was doing.
"Here is your order" the waiter said smiling at us. I took my fork and wedged a piece of bacon on it.
When we finished breakfast we bordered another bus.
"So where are we going first?" I asked.
"Um…I was thinking that we could go to one of the Museums" he said.
When we got to the "American Museum of Natural History" we got off.
"This could be interesting" I said walking in. Tony walked over to the desk and paid the fee. Taking my hand he led me over to the displays.
"So you ever been interested in this stuff?" he asked me.
"Well I haven't really been to many museums I have been otherwise… occupied" I told him.
"how so?" he asked.
"Oh nothing don't worry" I replied.
"Well okay if this doesn't catch your fancy, what is it you want to spend your life doing?" he asked me.
I thought about it as we passed the next few displays.
"I'm really not sure what I want to do. I came travelling so I could find something that I would want to spend the rest of my life doing, so we'll see what happens" I told him.
"That's interesting" he smiled at me.
When it was lunch we decided to go to central park for a picnic. Sitting under one of the many trees we got out the sandwiches we brought and started eating.
"So what do you want to do with your life then Tony?" I asked him.
"Live it" was all he said then leaned over and caught me in an unexpected kiss.
The week passed like a blur. Moments were bright in my mind; they were mainly of the kisses we shared. Other moments were hazy. I was enjoying myself so much. I thought most of that was because of Tony. I really had come to get closer to him. It was a shock when I realised that Sam had left my mind and my heart didn't hurt. It felt like it would burst instead.
I was standing in my room getting ready for the dance Tony was taking me to tonight. The owners of the backpackers had gotten invites to a "ball" of sorts and had given them to Tony. I walked over to my bags and pulled out my dress that I had brought during the pass week. It was a rich black with breads sewn on around the bodice. The skirt was full length and made of a smooth material. I twirled in the mirror, confident in my high heel shoes.
I opened the door as I heard Tony walking towards it. He gasped when he saw me.
"You look…look…what I was saying again?" he said before pulling me into a tight embrace. He lips were hard against me, causing me to catch my breath.
"You look so good. I could almost eat you" he whispered jokingly in my ear. For some reason I felt like shivering. I suppose it reminded me of Vampires. Taking his hand I commented on how good he looked in a tux.
"Well I'm glad you like it, so ready then?" he asked.
"Definitely" I replied as he lead me down the stairs and out the door. We slipped in to a taxi and Tony told the driver the address. As we drove I was thinking about how lucky I was to meet such a man in only one day of being here and then getting to be with him for the whole week. A small voice in the back of my head tried to tell me that he could turn out to be bad. I ignored it and leaned over to kiss him.
