a human and a werewolf

Battling with one's self

Waverly's POV

It's been a few days since the whole beer Soaked t-shirt and I can't get the new Sheriff Deputy out of my head. I mean there's just something about her that Draws me in, also the fact that my wolf who has never talked to me before in my life says that this Nicole Haught is my mate I mean What the hell! For one I'm dating Champ, for two I don't even know her, for three I'm not so good with change. I mean Wynonna came back, changed one. Dolls in town also changed two. I now work at Shorty's and BBD changed three. I don't know how much more change I can take!

At the moment I was walking down the street enjoying a rare sunny hot day in purgatory. I came Across the smell of vanilla dip donuts. I knew instantly who it was and right around because I did not want to talk to Officer Nicole Haught. I don't know what's wrong with me! It's like half me doesn't know what to do or how to feel but the other half and I'm guessing it's the wolf part, it feels like there's a rope and it's pulling me in the direction of vanilla donuts and dimpled smiles.

It was an hour or two later when it felt like my heart had stopped. When I got a call from dolls number, it was Nicole who was talking.

"Hey um waverly it's Nicole, Nicole Haught. Anyway I'm calling to Inform you that your sister, Shorty, and Champ have been involved in a kidnapping. I called you with any news on the situation. Um okay bye"

I just stared down at my phone with a blank look on my face. Not only was my sister involved because of course why wouldn't she be but also my boyfriend and my boss! One hell of a day I'm having!

Part of me wanted to stay right where I am and wait because what good would I do for anyone, another part of me and I'm going to take a wild guess and say the wolf part wanted to hunt down the people who kidnapped my sister and destroy them. I will not let that side win. I am not a killer!

Hours later, Shorty's dead and my boyfriend is acting like everything is fine! Hours later and everyone showed up at the bar to honor the life, Shorty lived. Hours later and all I Wanted to do was scream. There goes another thing that's going to change. Hours later and it felt like I was going to bust out of my skin. Hours and I think I've had just about enough of everyone and everything. I was just about to excuse myself when the smell of vanilla dipped donuts came on a Breeze through the open door. With it a sheriff's deputy wielding a lethal dimpled simile. All the tension seemed to leave my body. My Body seemed to relax without my permission

"Hey Waverly, how are you doing after, well after everything?" Nicole said as she walked up to the bar.

"Well I was doing a lot better yesterday than I am today" I said as I looked down with tears flowing freely down my face.

"Hey it's alright you're going to be okay" Nicole said as she reached Across the bar and grabbed a hold of my hands. From what I could sense she felt sincere in her words.

Our tiny moment was Interrupted by Champ walking over And Swinging his arm around my shoulders in a possessive manner. I kept trying to talk but kept Interrupting me with kisses to my face and neck. He thought it comforting. I found it revolting. She took her hands off of mine and let them fall to her side.

"Wait um I just wanted to say thank you for the call earlier. I really appreciated being kept in the loop" I said, trying to keep her in my presents a little longer because I felt that if she walked away I would fall to pieces.

"Oh yeah it was nothing. Well um I let you get back to the memorial" she turned and walked over to where a few people were talking and jumped into the conversation.

"What's up with her? Whatever it is, I don't trust her" Champ said as he tightened his arm around my shoulders.

"Um well she's a cop, she was just trying to do her job. Oh look there's Wynonna I'm going to see how's she's doing okay?" I said as I tried to wiggle my way out from under his possessive arm and his bad smelling cologne. He's a wolf so I don't understand how he can stomach the smell day in and day out.

"Alright baby I'm just going to go play a pool game for Shorty with the boys" he Finally let my shoulder go and started walking towards the pool table as I started to walk towards Wynonna.

"Hey baby-girl, how are you holding up? I have a question for you?"

"Ask away but if it's anything to do with getting drunk you are on your own there dear sister"

"It's not about drinking, at least this time it's not. Anyway I was thinking we both should move back to the homestead. Dolls says that there's a reason the 77 never messed with us before that night and don't you dare say it had anything to do with you, am I clear? Good now what do you say?"

"I don't know Wynonna. What about full moons? What are we going to do for them if we move back to the homestead?"

"Oh how I love you brain! Well the homestead has a cellar too. The upside is that it is a lot bigger than Gus's so that means we can be on the same side of the cage next month. It may need a little work but don't worry I can get all the necessary things squared away before next month. So any other problem you want to bring up where I have the solution?" she says with a shit eating grin on her face.

"I guess you have all of this fingered out don't you?" A chuckle evident in my voice.

"I made the Mistake of leaving all those years ago. Not because I hated you for what you have done. I left because I knew I wouldn't have been able to take care of you. Hell, I was barely old enough to take care of myself. I knew I wouldn't have been able to show right and wrong. The way of the movies but I guess Gus didn't teach you right either if she lets you lock up your wolf"

I could tell she was trying to put as much conviction into her words as she could. I could feel the truth behind her words but it still hurt to see her going and to find out that she left because she thought she had to take care of me.

"I just want to make up for lost time with my little sister. I want to teach you about the wolf, I want your help in taking down the 77, but most of all I want us to be a family again. Just the two of us!" taking my hands in hers squeezing them and pulling me into a hug. I could feel the tears soaking through my shirt but I didn't care, my sister was finally home.

"Alright I will move back to the homestead with you. We can spend all the time in the world together when you're not chasing down the 77 that is. How does a sleep over sound?" as I leant back to get a view of her face. I could still see that she was crying but she quickly wiped the tears away because she wouldn't be Wynonna if she was saw crying in public.

"I say hell yeah!
