In the middle of Altanta Georgia, there was a bar with a lounge as the night life was in full swing on a friday night. The bar was typical, there a counter for customers to drink and there were some tables as a large black raven piano was in the center on a platform as a young man was currently playing somce classical music. You think classical music in a bar would ruin the mood, but the way the music was coming off the ivory keys it just made you feel relaxed, homey. The piano player was a tall african american male, his brown eyes were glazed in concentration as he played the piano. He felt the eyes of the patrons watch him, but he learned to ignore it as he kept playing. He was tall and lanky with a head covered by amazing deadlocks as they swayed slighty as he played. He had broad shoulders, a broad chest and his arms were very strong. His large hands flexed as his fingers glided across the piano keys. His long legs moved a bit as he sat on the piano chair as he tapped his foot to the song he was currently playing. Soon the music begin to fade away as he finished his song for the night as he stood up and everyone clapped and cheered as he took a bow and cracked his neck and fingers. He slowly made his way to the bar as he sat on the bar stool.

" Another good night Louis, if only you had this effect on the ladies."

Louis flipped off the bar keep as he was handed a glass of wine as Louis sipped it slowly. The bar keep was his long time best friend Marlon. Marlon laughed it off as he went to fill more drink orders. Louis scanned the room as his eyes came upon a couple as they hugged each other. Louis sighed, he hoped that one day he would find his queen, his true love, but so far he hasn't found anyone who caught his eye. He finished the glass of wine as he grabbed his trench coat and went to walk home. He didnt live that far from the bar Marlon owned and ran, he was grateful that his buddy hooked up him up with a job of being the bar entertainment.

Louis waved to Marlon as he left the bar, he felt his face flush from the wine as he slowly made his way home. He was always a lightweight when it came to alcohol, he didnt drink much. He went down an alleyway as a shortcut to his apartment when he felt a gun pressed to his back.

" No sudden moves pretty boy."

A low tone said as he felt himself be surrounded by men in dark clothes as they each held a gun to him. Louis felt his arms go up as they inched closer to him, his mind racing to stuff as he prayed someone or something to save him as he felt the armed men get closer. He worked out and jogged everyday, but he didnt know how to disarm a gun.

" Please don't let it end this way, please let me find my love at least!"

Suddenly a gust of wind knocked Louis into the dumpster as the armed men started to scream as they were attacked. Louis groaned as his vision blurred as he tried to get up, but he sat down as the sky began to darken as rain clouds appeared. He cursed under his breath as he tried to look up to see blood splatter onto the ground as he watched the armed men being lifted into the air as they were torn apart like pinatas. Thunder roared as lightening filled the air as Louis started to hyperventilate as the figure slowly walked towards him. He saw two golden eyes watch him as the figure appeared before him, he couldn't breath as his eyes focused on a tall creature. It had a bird like face with horns on its head as it had a human like body with smooth ivory skin. He saw it had clawed hands and feet as the claws were covered in blood as it's long tail swished behind it, like it was wagging like a dog as large wings spread out as it started to rain, the wings covering them both.

" PPLEase dont kill me!"

Louis yelped as he tried to get up to run away, but his back hurt from the force of being knocked into the dumpster.

" Wait you can see me?"

Louis blinked as he felt the tail slowly lift him up and it moved to make a seat for him as Louis was in the air as his vision cleared up. The creature stepped closer as it's golden eyes looked over him and sniffed him gently as it felt him raise a hand to its face. Louis gasped as he felt how smooth the skin was.

" Amazing, how do you keep your skin so smooth?"

The creature laughed as they smiled from the compliment.

" Not everyone can see me and yet here you are in the prescence of a Gryph. You are truly special...I'm sorry what is your name?"

" Louis, my name is Louis."

The creature nodded as it brought him closer, the rain got heavier as they looked into each others eyes.

" Louis do you promise NOT to tell anyone what you saw tonight? Anyone who see a Gryph and tries to tell, they will be killed! I dont want to kill you, you're too sweet."

Louis nodded like an idiot as the creature sighed and held him close before he felt a sharp pain run across his chest as he felt his mind going dark from the pain.

" Cross your heart and hope to die a quick death!"

Was the last thing the creature said as Louis passed out, the gryph held him close as it flew up into the sky as police sirens flooded the area. The gryph carried Louis back to his home, using his scent to guide it and it came upon a tall building with a skylight as it landed gently as the rain began to pour heavier. Using its claws, it opened the skylight as it walked in carrying Louis. It's tail closed and locked the door as it sniffed the air, it had Louis' scent all over it and the gryph smiled as it carried him to his bedroom. It laid Louis down onto his bed as it used its wings to dry them both off as it shook its head before it started to glow.

Soon it changed its form to that of a young woman with long black hair and pale skin wearing a jean jacket with a white t shirt onand dark blue jeans and black sneakers with a hat on her head that has a large D on it. She looked around the large apartment as she gathered medical supplies as she returned to the bedroom where Louis layed unconscious as she gently removed his trenchcoat first and hung it on the coat rack near the door. Next she gently removed his green shirt to see the claw mark was glowing as he placed the wet shirt into a basket as she had to remove his clothes before he caught a cold.

She felt her face heat up seeing him naked as she placed his wet clohtes inot a empty laundry basket as she grabbed a towel to dry him off quickly. Louis barely moved as she dried off his cold body as she slowly cleaned the claw mark she left on his chest. She couldn't help running her fingers opn his broad chest, the muscles twitching from her touch as she tried NOT to look down his body. His dick was right there in the open as she felt herself get hotter as she bandged up his chest as she went to dry his clothes.

She managed to empty his pockets as she went to use the dryer as she removed her wet clothes too. She shivered as the cold air hit her wet body as she grabbed one of his shirts which was too big for her it was like a dress as she started the dryer and she stretched a bit. She looked around the apartment as she noticed it was messy, magazines tossed in random spots, clothes in piles on the floor. She shook her head as she started to clena up the place only to jump as Louis' cellphone rang loudly as she ran to grab it. She answered it without checking as a loud voice made her wince.

" LOUIS WHERE ARE YOU, YOU KNOW YOU'RE SUPPOSE TO CALL ME WHEN YOU GET HOME AND YOU DON'T LIVE THAT FAR AWAY!"

She shook her head as she talked to the loud man on the phone as Louis groaned in his sleep making her blush.

" HEY keep your voice down, Louis is sleeping! Who are you?"

" OH sorry. My name is Marlon and I own the Erickson Bar that Louis plays piano for. I'm also his best friend. I didnt mean to yell but four people got murdered near his apartment and I wanted to make sure he made it home safely. Now WHO are you young lady?"

She blinked as he smiled hearing how much this Marlon cared for Louis.

" My name is Clementine and I bumped inot Louis on his way home, I think he drank too much. I helped him walk home."

She heard Marlon sigh in relief.

" Thank god! Sorry if he caused you any trouble or flirted with you, he can the world's biggest dumbass. He's my best friend so legally I can call him that, anyway just watch over him for the night, I trust you'll keep him safe Clementine."

" I will Marlon good night."

She hung up the cellphone as she went to finish up her cleaning of Louis' apartment. Once everything was clean to Clem's standards she cracked her back as she checked the front door to make sure it was locked as she yawned. She made her way to the bedroom as she grabbed a pair of shorts and slipped them onto Louis so he wasnt fully naked as she curled up next to him, she layed on her side as she felt her body get heavy. Exhaustion hit her as she was drifiting off to sleep when she felt two strong arms wrap around her waist as Louis placed his head on her neck as he snored loudly. Clementine blushed as his body heat made her feel VERY hot but she supressed her hormones as sleep overcame them both.
