My Wolf-man

Chapter 30 ~ Spook and Play

While I was having breakfast this morning, I overheard the girls talking about going shopping. Lucy immediately sprang into my mind, and I knew I had to go with them because I needed to get her a present. 

When I asked if they could come, Bloom and Alice lit up like stars in the night sky. They were pleased I'd decided to tag along, and they said they could use some 'fresh' company. 

After eating way too much food to be able to walk properly, I made my way to the room and had a shower, washing and drying my hair with the towel. I was fiddling with my hair when I heard a knock at the door. 

"Come in!" I yelled, loud enough so whoever it was could hear me from the outside the room. 

I saw Lucy come around the corner of the bathroom and my face blushed. I tightened the towel wrapped around me, and Lucy rolled her eyes at my gesture. 

"You know I've known you forever right? Why you still blush when you're wrapped in a towel confuses me," she chuckled. 

"It's modesty," I snorted taking a deep breath and looking at myself in the mirror. 

"Want me to do your hair?" she asked me. 

I smiled as a thanks. 

"I'll go get my stuff," she responded. 

I chuckled, can't she just do it with her hands? I have a hair tie, she doesn't need to get another one. 

She came back in with a bag, and pulled out a hair tool and plugged it into the wall. 

"What's that?"

"A curling iron."

She waited for it to heat up, and when there was steam coming off it she picked it up and walked over to me, grabbing and brushing a section of my hair. 

I eyed the curling iron cautiously. "It looks like it's going to burn my hair off." 

She smirked, and wrapped my hair in a circle around the iron. I shrieked when I heard my hair sizzle. 

"Chillax girl, it's not going to burn your hair if you don't leave it on for too long. I've used this thing a thousand times before and I still have hair," she replied smirking when she caught my gaze in the mirror. 

"Fine fine I trust you," I responded. "But Aiden won't be happy if I come out bald. He's always complaining about me leaving my hair down when he sees me trying to tie it up."

She laughed, her smile sparkling. "Of course he does. But that man seriously has no idea how annoying  hair gets. While it's pretty, it's also a complete and utter pain in the backside."

I smiled at her reaction. 

"I heard about yesterday," she said, her smile drooping. "I'm sorry I couldn't find you after. I hand clue where you went off to. He didn't mean it, I'm sure of it. That man just loves you too damn much to harm a single hair on you."

"I know he didn't, he was just being him - except amplified obviously. His wolf got in the way. And besides, I've already talked to him about it."

"Oh really," she replied wiggling her eyebrows up and down suggestively. 

"No not like that," I laughed, rolling my eyes. "You always think so dirty. He just explained it to me, and I forgave him quickly. He's a hard person to be mad at anyway. His eyes just make me forgive him because I get so lost in them and forget why we're fighting in the first place." 

I thought back to his eyes when I forgave him yesterday. When I saw they were the same crystal  blue eyes I knew and loved, I kissed him. I know my Aiden and as long as his eyes don't look like that again, the dangerous gaze that scared me, we'll always be okay. I knew it was apart of him, and it's bound to happen again because his possessiveness gets the better of him sometimes, but it surprised me and because it was the first time I'd seen him like that, I was scared and didn't know how to act hence why I latched onto Zander.
