Chapter 10

I feel like a ghost again. I see Vash, pacing. He looks tired. He goes to his refrigerator and grabs a beer. He has blue essay books next to him on the sofa, and he begins to read. He marks some, more than others. Some actually make him laugh. He goes to bed, and the link breaks.

Oh crap, today is Saturday. That stupid formal is tonight. I wish I could get out of it, but I promised Aiden. I had another one of my voyeur dreams, as I call them, again last night. I feel like I am spying, even though I can’t help it. He hasn’t gone to that woman’s house again, at least. That was a relief. I am feeling a little guilty because there is an air of sadness about him lately. Maybe I have been a little hard on him. I decided to take a run, and not in human form. I go outside my bathrobe and change form, and I take off running. This feels so good. I love how the trees whiz by, the sounds and the smells assaulting my senses.

I know you are out here Kyle, I can smell you. You might as well come out. I project. And Vash, if you give him a hard time, you and I will have words, seeing as I know he’s here.

A large brown wolf joins me coming from the left. Together we run, I didn’t realize how good it makes me feel to do this or I would have been out here before now.

I’m sorry about all this, Ivy.

Its ok, Kyle, I know it was not your fault. I am glad you are here now.

I can’t go back with you. I am on patrol, Vash’s orders. It’s good I was, I have chased off several rogues.

That’s ok. I have to head back now. I need to get stuff done before tonight.

I ran back to the house, and changed back, slipped into my robe. Going inside, I fed the cat, cleaned up the kitchen and sat down to clean the old papers out of my book bag. I pulled out the two blue books and stared at them. There was nothing on the outside so I opened the first one, and stared. The letter grade was a B. that was not what caught my attention. The words “I’m sorry” were printed across the top of the page. I turned the page and it was written across the top of both of those pages, as it was written on every page in that book. It was the same for the second book except the last page, which asked “Will you forgive me?” I closed the books and sat there for a second or two. I was not ready to just pretend nothing happened. I decided to put on some jeans and work on my living room. I had recently decided that my house was in need of a facelift. I bought sage green paint, and a new carpet to put in here and I figure it will help to keep my mind off of things. I have a few hours, I may as well use them.

When 4:00 rolled around I started to clean up. Aiden wanted me at her place by 5:00 and I needed to get a shower.

As I stood in the shower, I went over my itinerary for this evening. 5 get dressed, get there by 7, chat up the investors for an hour and out by 8. Awesome. I have no desire to go to this. I shaved my legs, washed and rinsed my hair and turned off the tap. I got out and wrapped a towel around my body, and dried my hair. Going to my room to grab clothes I shrieked because I walked right into Kyle. He started laughing.

“Sorry!” he said between loud guffaws.

“Oh wow! You smell horrendous! Pleeeeaaaase go take a shower!” I begged. “Why are you here, anyway? I didn’t think you were allowed.”

“Ok, ok, I’ll shower, and Vash gave me permission to come back, so here I am!” he said excitedly. I hugged him. I couldn’t help it, and he hugged me back.”
