A werecat's ball of yarn

Clumsy love

Severus' POV:

CLASH! There goes the garbage can. The 4th time this week. It's all because of my long, black bangs that are always in my way. But they are there for a good reason.

Every half moon I transform into a cat and prowl the streets all night. My bangs hide my cat -like yellow eyes and a long, thin scar across the top of my cheek. when my Dad scratched me, it left that scar. Nobody knows I'm a werecat, not even my very good friends, Samantha, Mackenzie, and Fox (his real name is Fredrick, but he hates that name).

As I was about to get up and fix the trash can, Samantha (or Sam) started to walk towards me. She had beautiful, long, brown hair with bangs (which was almost always in a ponytail), and the warmest brown eyes I've ever seen. Suddenly, no one else was in the hallway. Just Sam and I. She reached her hand to mine, and helped me up. I was staring at her, and she was staring at me. Or so I thought. "Sev! Sevy! SEVERUS!" Sam snapped me out of my little fantasy and once again, everyone was in the halls. "You really should cut those bangs of yours." Sam said to me. "I like them this." I lied. "Ok but be more careful! I won't always be there to help you." Sam said. She ended up being right.

"Mr. Chase! Why are you late again?!" I ended up being late for second period's science class with Mr. Diley, who always barks out words like mad. "Um.... I tripped." I replied, which was true. After Samantha left to go to science class, I tripped over another garbage can and a "caution wet" sign. "Just take a seat, Mr. Chase!" Mr. Diley barked. So I took my seat. As Mr. Diley continued to teach the class on whatever he was teaching, I was thinking about three things:

1. The fact that Mr. Diley's mysterious, wolf gray eyes were staring into my soul (or that's what it felt like)

2. The fact that I might be in love with Sam (Am I or am I not?)

3. The fact that I also had some business to do tonight.
