Reversed

Chapter 3- Trouble Maker

[Glad you people like it. I decided to add some more mystery in this chapter. Thank you for the reviews, I enjoyed a lot. Please continue with the feedback, so I know if I should continue our just write it for myself without uploading.:) ]

I visited again. I saw him leaving for work. I followed. I guess I figured his work could tell me something about his personality. A hospital, I was quite surprised. What was he? A doctor or maybe he did an office job? Maybe I would find out some day.

I went back home.

'Well well, look who's home,' he wasn't pleased.

'Hey buddy!' I smiled innocently.

'Where have you been?',JT asked firmly.

'What? Can't I leave the warehouse now to take a walk?' I asked a bit annoyed. Probably because I felt guilty.

'Not in the morning when everybody is heading to work,' he seemed not to grasp how irresponsible I was.

'Come on JT. I am suffocating here!' I tried to defend myself.

'All of a sudden? Yeah right. You were with him weren't you?' he guessed.

'I...'

'For God's sake Catherine! What were you thinking? You know what? I don't wanna know because I am sure it was dirty. Why are you doing this? Why would you put yourself in danger for a random guy?' he was frustrated.

Oh oh. He called me Catherine, this was bad.

'JT I'm being cautious, I promise. Please trust me. It is a torture to stay here the whole day,' I tried to explain.

'Please , Cat. I don't wanna lose you;' he admitted shyly.

'I know, buddy. Come on, I'll make you your favourite for dinner and then movies and beer to make it up,' I tried to soften him.

'You know my buttons, Chandler,' he sighed.

JT was asleep. Time to sneak out.

Where was he going this late? I decided to follow. He entered the bar from yesterday. Great! There went my favourite bar. Couldn't show up here again. Bars were the only places I went. It was dark, people were drunk. I always got a dark corner trying not to catch attention. Difficult sometimes as men were always searching for fun. Not with me, not anymore. This had been the only bar I've visited more than 2-3 times. The bartender got that I liked being left alone and helped by sending the security after men who didn't get it. Well I guess it was time to say goodbye to Tess. I was kind of going to miss her.

I didn't know why, but I waited for him to come out. I heard someone in the alley from the night before. That's when I saw him come out. And the three men step forward. No!

They had bats. The one who attacked me was in no condition to swing a bat. He came to lead. I saw them pull the stranger in the alley. I didn't think. I let my anger lead me. My anger towards the men and my fear for my stranger.

Before the bat could crash his head I kicked it away. I turned towards the men. My eyes were catlike, my body a little bit more muscular than before. Nothing they could actually see in the dark, apart from the eyes. But the eyes were enough, as my glance was deadly. They backed away.

He was speechless.

'Go home,' I ordered, 'and please stay away from this bar. There are tons of them in the city.'

'Who are you? How did you do that?' he found his voice again.

'Just say thank you and leave. Be more careful. I can't save your ass everyday,' I said.

'Wait! At least tell me your name, please,' he begged, but I was already gone. Like last night I watched him go bome. This time I waited till lights went on in one of the appartments. He was leaning outside his window. He was shirtless. He let ou a deep, frustrated sigh. ' Who are you?' he asked.

As much as I appreciated his naked body, I had to leave, otherwise I would be soon knocking on his door.

'Cat you are insane. You lost your mind!' J.T. yelled.

'Stop yelling! I'm an adult. I can do whatever I want!' I felt my anger rise. I desperately tried to control it.

'No, you listen to me! If you want to ruin yourself fine. But I'm your friend and it's my job to protect you. So stay away from him,' he commanded.

That was it. Pain shot through my head. It forced me to my knees. I couldn't fight it anymore.

JT approached me worried sick, 'Cat...'

'Stay away! I can't control it much longer! You have to drug me,' I screamed in pain.

'No, you are strong. You'll make it. This didn't happen in a long time. I trust you,' he encouraged ne.

'But I don't. Shoot me now!' I urged.

[ What do you think happened to Cat? I am curious about your ideas. I have a rough concept about her problem but I'm willing to add your ideas if their good. Only if they are compatible with mine though. Thanks! ]
