Skinwalker

Chapter 14

Logan entered Anwen’s house that smelt delightfully of freshly baked cookies. He got the key out from under the flowerpot.   

            “Annie? You home kid?” he called.

            “I’m upstairs!” Anwen called back.

            Logan shut the door after him and went upstairs looking for her.

            Her bedroom door was open as he looked in. She was seated on the floor, looking at clothes while Blackie was on the bed, batting her ponytail about. For some odd reason, the cat was wearing socks and a hat.

            But what really caught Logan off guard was the pretty white dress she was wearing. Usually she just wore jeans or sweaters or just about any loose clothing that looked like they belonged on a guy.

            “Hey, what’s going on?” he asked, staring at her in amazement. He never noticed before how beautiful she was.

            “Oh- when I went out with the others yesterday, we bought some clothes, so I was playing dress up with Blackie before I put them away,” she explained.

            Logan nodded but still couldn’t take his eyes off her as she got to her feet to put the folded laundry into the dresser. “You look great,” he told her.

            Anwen smiled blushingly, “Thank you,” she said softly.

            As Logan watched her remove the socks off Blackie’s feet- he suddenly realised the position he was in. He was alone in Anwen’s house with her. There was no one else in the house. It was just the two of them with all the privacy in the world.

            “Are you okay?” Anwen asked curiously, seeing him standing there, a little slack jawed.

            “Wha- yeah- I’m fine.”

            Anwen smiled and shut her closet doors before trying to catch Blackie who had jumped at a bird that had landed on the windowsill.

            “Blackie!” she scolded as he chased the bird out to the roof.

            Blackie, who was out on his hunt, ignored her. Anwen scowled, “If he falls off the roof…” she said.

            Logan went over to Anwen and shut the window, “He’ll be fine,” he said and bent down to kiss her.

            He could smell the fruity smell of her shampoo as he pulled her hair tie off and her beautiful red hair fell over her shoulders.

“Logan?” Anwen squeaked in surprise as he gently pushed her down onto her bed. Logan silenced her with a kiss, one hand tangling itself in her hair and pulling her head closer to him so that their lips were mashed together.

Logan was hungrily kissing her, sucking and licking her lips but Anwen couldn’t help but feel like there was something wrong.

            She tried to push Logan away but he wasn’t having any of it, pressing his heavier body down on her.

            It wasn’t until she felt his hand creeping up her thigh that she panicked and bit onto Logan’s lip.

            “Ow!” Logan yelped, pulling back at once.

            “I’m sorry! I- I-“ Anwen stammered, “I have to go to the bathroom-“ she said, getting out from under Logan and running to the bathroom at once.
