1063 Words
Once we were laying there, holding each other, I wanted to bring up court. Something stopped me tho. I wanted to just be in the moment after the bliss. I wanted to hold on to that feeling for a little longer.
“You can ask.”
“I don’t know if I want to.”
“Please.”
“Ok, I wanted to talk to you about court. How is it all going to work with the change. Will I be able to control my anger for him?”
“That’s something I have already thought about. I wanted to ask you if you would train with me to help control yourself. It will be hard and long days.”
“That’s fine, I just need to know I will be able to control it so I don’t go on a rampage.”
“We will handle that, trust me, I will keep you safe.”
“I know you will.”
I got up and walked over to my closet, I pulled out some yoga pants and my tank top. I got dressed and was ready to start my training. He laughed once I was standing there ready, he got up and got dressed as well.
“Follow me to the gym.”
He walked out and we headed down the stairs, he opened the door waiting for me to walk in. After I grabbed a water out of the little fridge in the corner of the room, he pulled me to the arms section.
“Start working out and focus, your body will try to change, your job is to stop it and keep working.”
I nodded and did what he said, the wolf inside was trying to claw its way out, I kept her choked down. It was painful as it was but when she started to talk to me, it kinda freaked me out. I stopped what I was doing and listened to her.
“Stop holding me down, I need to be free to save you.”
I walked over to Leo freaked out, he had already known what I was going to say.
“It’s ok, she knows and just talk to her, that's part of your self control.”
I went back over to where I was working out and vary comely listened as I pulled the bar down to work out my arms.
“What do you mean by save me?”
“What I mean is to let me go so I can hunt him down.”
“NO, we can’t, we have to work together and I need to know that you won’t kill him.”
“What do you mean won’t kill him? That's what both of us want.”
“Your right but it's against the law. I don't need to be in any more trouble than what I’m in.”
“Fine, then what do we do?”
“We work together to bring him down by the law. Besides that, what’s your name?”
“I don’t really know, I’ll have to figure that out. Will you help me?”
“Of course I will, what kind of names do you like?”
“Well I want it to sound badass if you know what I mean.”
“Hmmm….. Maybe something like Ashley, or maybe even Luna?”
“No, something even better.”
“Then how about Bristol?”
“I LOVE IT!”
I giggled out loud and did not realize it, Leo looked over at me and smiled. I turned to another workout, running, I wanted to make my legs strong, Bristol was no longer talking to me. I didn’t mind it much, but there was something about her. I couldn't put my finger on it.
About three hours later we walked out done with the work out. Leo went to his bed room, while I went to the kitchen a little hungry. I pulled out the bread, mayo, black forest ham, and cheese. I gobbled up and grabbed a soda, at this point it didn’t matter what it was as long as it had flavor.
It was dark outside before I knew it, I sat down in the living room and turned the TV on. Cops were playing from the last time I had watched something, so I went through the channels to find anything interesting when I came upon some cartoons, sponge bob. I have always loved watching it since I was a kid. I heard Bristol growl for a moment, it made me look around and to the back door. I saw something standing there that looked mostly like a human but different, it had wings. What was this thing I was seeing?
It took off up in the sky after a moment, I didn’t know if what I had just seen was real or not. I got up and walked over to the door to see if it was still around. I didn’t see anything and I could feel Bristol calm down and stop stirring. Whatever that thing was, it was something like out of a movie. Maybe I should go to bed, but I’m not tired. I turned the TV off and walked up stairs, once I got to my room I didn’t want to go inside. So instead I went to Leo’s room and waited for him to get out of the shower.
I sat there and thought that maybe this thing I had seen was just because of working out so hard. I layed down and didn’t realize I was as tired as I was. My eyes were getting heavy as I tried to fight it, just then I heard the shower turn off, he walked out and realized I came in. He looked shocked to see me laying on his bed, he walked over and climbed in with me. He pulled over to him so he could hold comfortably. I didn’t mean to fall asleep so fast, but I did, my eyes closed on me and I was out like a light.
