Loving A Wolf

Safe

"Well, Winona, you have a broken arm, though you seem to be healing marvellously fast, you have a concussion and a couple of bruises here and there. Nothing seems to be absolutely broken beyond repair, but I have to ask you to relax for a few weeks." the doctor said.

Of course, it was the same doctor she'd had when she broke her legs, so most of the formalities were gone, but it also made Winona feel more comfortable.

"What about her legs?" asked Dale. "Your legs are fine. You have a few tiny bruises, but nothing severe. Of course, your arm is stopping you from gymnastics until it's healed." she answered. "Well, at least I can walk this time." Winona joked, causing everyone to chuckle.

"I've given your parents a couple of drugs to help with the pain, and I'll leave you to rest. You know how to find me if there's anything." she smiled. "Thank you, Dr. Lovett." smiled Missy, before the doctor left.

"So, what happens now?" the werewolf looked over at the man next to her. "We're searching for him." Dale answered. "And...if you find him?" she asked. "We have a perfect place for him." he said. Winona nodded, but immediately regretted it as her head hurt.

"What about me?" she looked at the Mayor, who grabbed her hand. "We're turning my office into your bedroom. We are moving your stuff over later today and you permanently live with us." she smiled.

Winona felt her eyes starting to water and smiled, before the two adults left.

Winona looked at her best friend. "So, I have a question for you, Ads." she said, playing with the necklace around her neck. "You sure you want the answer?" asked Addison, knowing the question.

"Why am I wearing the moonstone, when it was ripped of my neck and thrown away?" she asked, her voice quieter. "Wyatt found it. He broke hospital rules and went into your room to put it on you." she explained.

"What did it do?" Winona asked. "It steadied your heartbeat, and helped you wake up quicker that you would have if you were a human." the blonde smiled. "You know, he makes it really hard for me to stay mad at him." she mumbled.

"The others were asking if you were up for a little more company, and if there was someone you didn't want here?" she asked. Winona bit the inside of her cheek as she thought, before looking back at her friend. "All of them are welcome." she said.

The two girls shared eye contact, before Addison smiled. "Great, because they're all sitting in the waiting room." she smiled before she stood up. "Woah, what? Wait." Winona stopped her friend as she was leaving.

"Not everyone at once." she said. "And could you send Wyatt first? Alone..?" Addison stared at her, surprised. "Sure." she smiled, before she left.

"Could we visit her?" Asked Willa once Addison appeared in the waiting room. "Not everyone at once, so I was thinking you go in pairs." she explained. "Alright, so, who goes first?" asked Zed. "Wyatt does. Winona asked for Wyatt to come first. Alone." Addison said.

Everyone turned to look at the male wolf, who seemed like a deer in headlights. "...me?" he asked, pointing at himself. "Yes, Wyatt, you." answered the blonde. "Wh-b-but what if she wants to yell at me?" he asked.

"So? then, she'll yell." Zed shrugged. "At least she wants you there. That's a start.." said Wynter, and everyone agreed. "You know her room." Addison smiled as he walked past her.

Wyatt stopped outside her door, and let out a shaky breath before he knocked. He heard a muffled answer, and opened the door to look inside. "Relax, Wy, I'm not going to bite you." she said. He closed the door behind him, but still stood a few feet away.

"Are you going to yell at me?" he asked quietly, struggling to meet her gaze. "Yeah, for breaking hospital rules when you snuck in here to give me back my moonstone." she said, a small hint of laughter in her voice.
