Oh Brother (Watty Awards)

Chapter 9

(About time right? I havent updated this story in what seems like a decade! But here it is! Finally...)

Rafe sat with me on his bed. He looks extremely worried and a little stressed out. He put his hand up to his left ear and tugged at it nervously. I grabbed his hand and held it. "Rafe, whats wrong?" I asked showing my concern. The way he's acting, he is going to tell me something bad.

"Everything." he groaned running his fingers roughly through his perfect brown hair. "Lovey, I'm not who you think I am." I looked at him with confusion.

"Everything like what?" I asked hesitantly. Maybe he finally realized that he doesnt want me, its not like I deserve him anyway. He deserves someone pretty with a normal life and no secrets.

He looked up at me with teary green eyes. Whats so wrong that he feels the need to cry? Rafe is only sensitive when he has something on his chest. I love his sensitive side but I dont like to see him hurting. "Have you ever wondered why Rafey and I have the same eyes?" He asked quietly. I nodded my head. Of course I've always wondered that, their eyes are completely alike.

"Have you ever wondered why you feel sparks when you touch me and him and no one else?" How does he know I get sparks when I touch him? Ive never told anyone about that!

"How do you know that?" I asked him with wide eyes. He smiled weakly at me and closed his eyes.

"Because we're the same person." He whispered. He opened his eyes and looked at me. I looked at him like he was crazy. "I'm a werewolf." I doubled over laughing.

"Let me guess," I said rolling my eyes. "I'm your mate." I continued to laugh but Rafe's face is completely straight and he looks serious. "Your kidding right?" I asked unable to laugh anymore. He shook his head at me.

"I'm not kidding, Lovey." He said sounding honest as hell. "I didnt tell you sooner because dad wouldnt let me. He was trying to mess everything up, now that he's gone, I can tell you the truth." I gaped at him with my mouth open. He cant seriously think he's a werewolf, he doesnt look like a werewolf. He looks like your average, overly sexy, teen.

He is a lot hotter than any guy I've ever come across. I mean I've never seen abs like his or seen his strength on another sixteen year old. I still dont see how he picked up that jerk with one hand. It is strange.

I have wondered about some of the things he does, like the growling and the anger issues. Then there was the day I damn near pulled my ear off and he licked it and it healed. That was extremely strange and I dont have any way to explain it. "Can you show me some proof or something?" I asked hesitantly.

He nodded his head and stood up in front of me. I couldnt help but admire his body. His skin is all tan and smooth, he has a small trail of hair that leads from his belly button to his happy place. I couldnt hide the blush that crept over my face. He noticed me looking and smirked at me. A second later his face got serious again. "Are you sure you just dont want to believe me? This is going to be scary."

"I cant believe it until I see it," I said. "Now come on!" He took a deep breath and I started to hear bones cracking. I jumped as his body started to become deformed and out of shape. His perfect face elongated into a muzzle and his teeth got longer and sharper. I closed my eyes, unable to watch the rest. I heard his clothes rip open and it startled me.

Im not scared of him by far, I just cant watch his body transform. It looks too painful and I worry that it may hurt him. The bone cracking stopped after a few seconds later, I still didnt open my eyes though. Im partly scared that this isnt a dream and if I open my eyes, Rafey is going to be standing in front of me.

I felt the bed dip down. I held my breath for a second. I felt something cold and wet nudging my hand. I let one eye creep open and I looked down to see those shiny, piercing green eyes staring up at me. "Holy shit." I whispered.
