Wolf Wrongs

Not hot to me

I stroll gloomily into my house and my parents both instantly try to lecture me about proper etiquette to use when meeting Harris. I stroll on right passed them, I've had a rough day, I'm a bit sad and just want to watch some kawaii Japanese movies by myself in my room.

"Cara! Get back here! You simply must make a good impression, otherwise Harris may reject you, here, I have a picture." My mother insisted. "Isn't he handsome!" I nod reluctantly and wander straight to my room.

"He is NOT hot to me" I think aloud. I slap open my laptop and shove a random movie into the slot, without looking at the title.

Two hours later I know I've chosen well the movie is over and it left me weeping softly, the exact thing that I needed to get rid of my bad feelings from the day, a bit of a cry. I am not a such a strong person on the inside, riddled with trust issues and scared of always being alone. I have had 2 girlfriends, and both cheated on me, not exactly brilliant for ones self esteem.

I got back at them though, my wolf wouldn't allow me to just, leave it be. I wrecked their stuff in my anger and fear, they just ran from the room yelling psycho and it took all of my self restraint not to hunt them down and kill them, like a wolf, like who I truly am. I felt myself changing, shifting, against my will for the first time (with the first girl) and I jumped out of the window and ran for the forest, barely making it to the trees before I turned and howled with anguish.

It was strange, I was not able to turn back for an age, my wolf took me to Celia's house, I took me to Celia's house, into her room and sat on her floor waiting for her to come back. When she did, I was lucky she was alone, because, I swear, she screamed the house down.

She didn't know I was a wolf yet, this was her finding out. When I didn't hurt her for at least half an hour, she seemed to pluck up the courage to touch me, as she stroked my muzzle, I immediately calmed down and shifted back, I was so tired, wolves have a lot more energy than humans, I just past out naked on her floor. When I woke, she had a few questions for me to say the least. But the one she pressed on the most, "are you okay now?" It was weird, but I was completely passed caring about my ex within those few moments.

The next time I was broken up with, I knew exactly what to do, I was upset, so I didn't fight the transformation, I ran to the forest before trashing to much stuff and then after the anger had subsided a little, I went straight to Celia, who immediately could tell what had happened and so she calmed me and I turned back and all seemed right with the world again...

Back to the present, time to call Celia and explain the Harris situation.

- Two minutes later -

"He's just not hot to me!" I moan indignantly to Celia.

"I know" she replies despondently, her voice changes tone "I guess you'll just have to put up with him for the day... What day was that again?"

"The entire of next weekend" I groan down the line.

"Next weekend!" says Celia, sounding alarmed, oh god, we planned an all weekend food fest, I completely forgot.

"The fest!" Celia whines, "Urgh, we'll just have to reschedule" her exasperated tone sends me into fits of giggles and we move on from the heinous topic to something new. But I can't help wishing that I could just be straight with everyone, but I would be exiled, I'm sure of it.

"Have you seen that guy Ray at school" Celia continuous, "I've heard he's super cool... But Samantha was saying he has a boyfriend." She sighed and I leap in to say I heard such and such say different.
