Shewolf

Chapter: 9

Chapter: 9

The days continue with me completely being angry with the whole Brittany and Jeremy thing. Surprisingly, my mom, being the person she is, didn't even ask me about it, nor did Brittany. She wasn't concerned with why I was angry; well I did hide it pretty good. For some reason I got the feeling she knew why, even though I didn't bring up the situation. Never told her about the phone call, never told her about the following, never told her about finding their clothes in the woods, never told her about how I felt, about Jeremy. It was very frustrating. I was still having the damn dreams about the fucking wolf and it just made me feel weird. every night the dreams got worse, well not really worse. They just seem to become more real. Not to mention the fact that I wasn't just myself in the woods anymore but I was the wolf that came to me, telling me that it would be with me, whatever that meant. Why the hell in my analyzing what that meant, it's not like the dream is real, though oddly it seemed completely real.

I shook my head trying to clear my thoughts. It's about 7 o'clock. I get off my bed and grab my iPod and my earphones heading downstairs. I stop in the kitchen to grab a bottle of water and head out the door. I've been taking
jogs, well more like runs,because I find myself angry. The run just releases me, making me feel alive. I've gotten a little bulkier, I guess you can say, from all the running. I run at least, maybe, 5 to 10 times a week. Done it for like the past month. Go ahead laugh at me, I know it's funny but I'm still not over it. Every time I think about Brittany and Jeremy being naked in the woods, for whatever they were therefore,it didn't matter to me, it makes me furious. I just feel like I want to destroy something, destroy somebody, anybody. And that scares me but in but it also excites me. I put my air phones in, start my playlist and begin to run. I run for at least 30 minutes but, surprisingly, reach about 7 miles. I don't even feel tired; I feel energize. I stopped to take a sip my water taking in my surroundings. The place feels familiar. I look up turning in every direction trying to figure out where I am. And it hits me like 1000 pounds. This is the place, this is the place I followed Brittany to, the place I found those two bastards naked in the woods doing God knows what. I have to calm down, I have no right calling Brittany that, but Jeremy. I laugh to myself. But I can't help it, I feel like a volcano, like I'm going to rupture any moment. it's a good thing I have 7 miles to run back to my house. I turned on my heels, restart my playlist and begin to run.

When I reach my house I noticed that my mom's cars in the driveway. She's home early, good. Hopefully she's cooking dinner I'm hungry.

"Hey mom I'm home." I say as I enter the house.

"Hi sweetheart. Have a nice run? Are you hungry? I'm cooking."

"It was good. And yes, I'm starving." I reply sniffing the air, smelling the aroma. She's making pepper steak. I can smell the seared onions and peppers and seasonings. It smells delicious, my mouth starts to water. Hint: I've also been eating a lot. I walk into the kitchen and sit at our island. It smells like the beef is almost done cooking. I get up, grab a plate and walk over to my mom. She looks up at me, smiles and puts a huge spoonful of pepper steak and rice on my plate. I lean down and kiss her on the cheek then sit back down wasting no time on my food.

"Someone's birthday is in two days." She says not looking in my direction. I look up with a mouthful of food.

"Mhm." I grow not even the least bit excited. My birthday is not going to be the same this year, I can already tell. Me and Brittany are not regular and I spend my birthday with Brittany and my mom, of course.

"Don't make any plans for tomorrow night. I have something to do with you." She said slightly looking in my direction.

"Okay. Fine with me, I don't have plans anyway." I reply. After I'm done my food I put my plate in the sink, go upstairs in my room and get undressed. Time for a shower. I grab my towel and go into the bathroom. I set the temperature of the water and get in. It feels so relaxing on my skin, nice and cool. Another hint: my temperature has been extremely hot, like 105°, but I don't feel sick, so I take cool showers, it's nice. I wash my body and get out heading to my room. I get dressed and get into bed wasting no time. I sigh, bracing myself for my absurd dream and close my eyes, drifting into a deep sleep not long after.
