Chapter 5

I threw my bag on the floor and guided myself out of the bathroom by the wall. The t.v was on and I saw the guy fast asleep on the chair. His head was to the side and both legs were propped up onto the bed. His neck would surely hurt when he woke up, but all in all, he looked quiet comfortable.

I grabbed a blanket from the bed and covered him up. I grabbed the remote and laid down on the bed. I retracted my wings into my back so I could lay down without discomfort. I propped up the pillows and laid back, surfing the channels for something good to watch. When I went through every channel there was, I settled on a music channel and decided to sleep some more. The channel was soft elegant music that made you relax and calm. I fell asleep once I readjusted my pillows and laid my head down.

I woke up to a light sensation stroking my back. I didn't know what it was but it felt good. I laid there for a minute, basking in the feeling when a voice snapped me out of it.

"Are these your wings?" said a soft voice. His hand stroked the slight bulges that were on my back. His hands felt so good I didn't want to say anything, but I answered anyway.

"Yea." I whispered. I lay there for a bit more while his hands roamed my back. The feeling was insane. I never would have thought that this small of a feeling could be so great.

"I went and got us some food if you're hungry." he said, ruining the moment. I turned over and saw that there was some burgers and fries and some sodas on the table.

"I'm starving." I stated. I propped myself up and sat Indian style. He brought me a burger and fries and I instantly dove into the food.

"What kind of soda do you want?" he asked. I looked up from my murdered food and noticed a coke and sprite.

"Um, I'll take the coke."

He nodded and threw the coke at me. I wasn't prepared to catch it do the fact that I still held the burger in my hand, so I stopped it mid air with my mind. The guy did a double take to see what I did and stared at me with amazement. I slowly lowered the soda to the bed and finished ravaging my burger and fries.

"So you're a mutant." he stated. I swallowed the last bite of my burger and went to open my soda.

"Thanks captain obvious for pointing that out." I said sarcastically.

"No problem." he said with a slight smirk on his face,

I rolled my eyes. He was cocky and that turned me on for some reason.

"Yeah, I'm a mutant." I said.

"You should be more careful on where you use your powers." he said, referring to my little show I just did with my soda.

"Well, by now you know I'm a mutant so I didn't think it would matter. Besides, you haven't tried to kill me yet, so I'm thinking you're one of the nice good guys."

"Sweetheart, I may be good, but I'm as far from nice as you are from home."

"And how do you know where I'm from?" I asked perturbed.

"Your license plate." he said before taking a big bite out of his burger. He grabbed another one and looked to me.

"Would you like another?" he mumbled through a mouth full of food.

"You know you shouldn't eat with your mouth full. It's bad manners." I said, holding my hand out, showing him I wanted it.

He threw the burger at me and growled. I let out a small smile before I started devouring my new prey. The burger was gone in roughly two minutes. I never realized how hungry I was. The last meal I ate was a bag of doritos and a mountain dew. I shook my head trying to be rid of that memory. That was one thing I never wanted to remember.

I heard a belch and looked over to the guy. He had a satisfied look on his face. He turned to me to see if I was disgusted but I let out an equal, relatively larger belch than his. I put on a satisfied smirk and took another sip of my soda. I heard him growl and get up, throwing away the trash.

"What is it with you and the whole growling thing?" I asked.

He looked at me with a lost look in his eyes and I wished I hadn't said anything.

"I growl when annoying people like you talk to much." he stated.

"Well I wouldn't talk so much if you would carry on an actual conversation instead of a grumpf and a growl every so often." I said.

"Well maybe that's how I talk." he said obviously annoyed.

"Well obviously not because we have been having a conversation for the past two minutes that didn't involve either of those things." I said with a satisfied smirk on my face. He growled again but stopped when he noticed what he was doing. I smiled even wider and I could tell he was getting mad.

"I'm gonna go take a shower, and by then you better have some explaining to do." he said with one eyebrow raised.

"You better also."

"What?" he asked.

"Do you honestly think I'm gonna tell you my whole story and not know anything about you? Wrongo." I said with a small smile.

He growled again and after realizing what he did he cursed and slammed the bathroom door. I laughed and turned on the t.v. I heard the shower turn on and wondered who this man was that was so disturbed by the world.
