I cracked my neck carefully when I was at the bottom of the stairs and stepped past the dogs crowding around my feet.

I went over to the kitchen and grabbed some chips in small snack bags, carefully dropping them into my bag.

My appetite was bad enough because I was a werewolf, but a werewolf on her period? Not my idea of fun.

I threw in a pack of Hot Tamales for extra precautions before setting the alarm and carefully heading out the door.

The early sun on my skin was nice though, I had to admit that. But I still felt pretty crappy as I made my way to the bus stop.

"Glad to see that everything is alright after being turned into a cat." My bus driver commented as I showed him my pass.

I smiled a bit and tilted my head to the side. "Yep, I'll be fine. No side effects that I know of." I retorted as I made my way to a seat and plugged in my earbuds.

I looked down at my phone as I got a notification.

Edge Lord: You left the book here on purpose, right?

Me: Yes

Edge Lord: Just double checking since you're clumsy.

Me: I'm not t h a t clumsy.
Me: It was just frosting

Edge Lord: For now

Me: Ha ha

I was about to press send on the last text but paused when I got another notification.

Trash Man: Hey Lauren!

Me: Oh, hey Travis, you need something?

Trash Man: What? No-
Trash Man: I just wanted to say good morning!

I paused, my thumb hovering over the screen.

"Oh.." I muttered, smiling to myself a bit.

Me: Well good morning then :)

It took him a moment to respond.

Trash Man: How was your weekend?

Me: The dinner was definitely something and then after that I did my homework before bed and I also did a face mask

Trash Man: Oh, the face mask part sounds fun!

Me: Yeah! We should do one together sometime

Trash Man: Would your parents allow that?

Me: Idk should probably be fine

Trash Man: Oh, then yeah! Why not?

I smiled at my phone. A guy friend has never really agreed to do something like that with me before.

Trash Man: Oh wait, didn't you say you were getting your period around this time? If you want I can get you some snacks or I could even try to find a heating pad?
Trash Man: Or anything you need, really

I stared at the screen with slightly wide eyes.

Me: That sounds nice but you don't really have to do that, the most I would ask of you is to make sure I'm not leaking every once and a while

Trash Man: But I don't have to go through this and you do, so all of it is honestly the least I could do

I froze again and stared right down at the screen. 'There's always a catch, what the hell does he want from me?'
