To Tell The Truth (Neko x Werewolf) (Boyxboy)

Chapter 12 - Cats & Dogs (Read End A/N)

I stood shock still. May went through so much and I never knew. I feel like an ass of a friend. How could I have known so little about her past? Even the her now, I didn't know. It's funny how in less than a week I learned more things than in my 16 years of life. I didn't care about what she had done. It was over. I really hate killing even if the person deserved it but right now........... personally, I wish...I wish I could have been there to hear the screams.

May has been through so much and I can't see how she could keep going at all after all that. How could she wake up and walk, say Hi and smile; Live.

"I wanted you to know, because you found your mate, no matter how much I hate him, I don't want you to. I know he will never hurt you. So, I trust him with you. I know what it's like to have half-baked love and it doesn't end well. I want you to be happy and I know he can give you that. Even if he is a dog that needs to be on a leash.''

I look at the big cherry blossom* tree. May is still on the ground and I walk to her. Leaves crumpled under my feet. When I reach her, I touched her hair. Her face turns to mine and I stare into her eyes.

"After hearing something like that, what can a person say? I don't even know what to do about the whole mate thing going on. I don't even know what to think, but I do know something.  That you, May, are the bravest person I've ever meant. There had been enough times in your life that would have drove a person insane. But you pulled through it. Just like the tree. It has nobody like it around to help it through, but it still stands strong and alone. But, unlike the tree, May, you have me. I will always be there. I think no less of you actually I think more. That you are brave, strong, and amazing. I'm not someone to be lost in the past for past decisions. Don't beat yourself over things you can't change. I'm glad you chose to move on.''

I pull her into a hug. Even through she didn't hug me back, I felt her relax.

"I don't like a man on the street more then my dead grandpa in the grave. Just because he is alive. I like Honey, your cat, more then most of my classmate. Even if it's a animal. I don't give a damn if you would've had limbs falling off. I like you because you are YOU. It's about who you are, not what you are. And you are the best friend anyone could ask for." I added.

By the end, May and I were both in tears.

We stayed like that for quite a while after the tears stopped. I let her go and stood up. I cleared my throat a few times.

She sniffled a bit and stood up as well and her face shifted to mine. "I feel much better. Even the shrink didn't make it better. Well I couldn't really tell them anything anyway." she let out a dry laugh.

"I guess it's my turn?" I signed.

May calmly waited for me to finish my story, with nodding every now and then. After I finished, she asked questions.

"Firstly your Aunt Lily is weird. Who pours honey on someone?" 

Who shoves candy down someone's throat?

"That was the weakest prank ever. Anyway, I don't smell shifter scent anywhere on you or your parents. You sure they aren't pulling your leg?"

"I'm sure they wouldn't joke something like that. Wait, what shifty scent?" I asked.

She rolled her eyes. "Shifter scent. Beings that change into another are shifters. They usually have a common scent of the animal mixed with there own. Like, werewolves have a shifter scent mixed with wolves and their own. But maybe since you haven't changed you don't have it. It's rare for that to happen, but it does sometime."
