Unforgettable

Chapter 3

David's POV

I walk around the hall and enter the infirmary.

A nurse was sitting in the front desk.

"Excuse me but can I see Stella please?" I said.

She looked through the clip board of previous patients and asked, "Stella Nightgale?"

It seemed weird. I never knew her surname.
"I think so."

The nurse hummed to her as she said , "Room 12"

"Can I know the directions to room 12?"

"To your left then to the right and it will be in front of you- the big double doors."

"Okay... Thanks..."

I walked with the directions she gave me and found myself standing near quite large pair of double doors.

There was one with 'surgery room' written on it and the other with 'Room 12'.

I knocked and opened the door.

It was really dark in here. I closed the door behind me and turned on the lights.

I was so surprised to see Stella upside down hanging on her tail, a wing half closed, covering a bit of her face, as if a shield, behind her back and the other open with a wooden staff wrapped in bandages to keep the wing bones in place. She was hanging on a long thick metal that extended from one wall to the other.

I was mostly surprised that her hands and legs were balanced straight and not dangling. I'm guessing that the nurses gave her a change of clothes, but they seemed weird. Shouldn't the clothes me lose? Also the weren't being pulled down because of gravity, I don't mean this in a bad way but shouldn't that happen? Why was she wearing tight clothing anyway?

Grabbing a chair I sit down keeping a bit of distance.

As I sat her eyes flew open and she looked at me, her eyes were slits which was a bit unusual... Infact nothing in this world is usual. But it was unusually unusual.

She plopped on her feet and turned to me, taking step by step towards me I heard a growl come from her throat.

I stood up and went behind the chair taking steps backwards.

She threw her arm to the side throwing the chair to the side in the process making it wreck.

I continued to back up when I remembered a flashback.

~~flashback~~

"So you have wings... But what are you really?" I asked.

"Well... I'm not really a normal nibiru (that's the name of the people living on Nibiru also known as nibirus)." She paused ,"Here normal means to have a power or an ability. But I don't so that's not normal."

"So... What are you?" I asked again.

"Don't be surprised but I'm actually half dragon." She said in a quiet whisper.

I was surprised at first but I managed to say, "You can't be a dragon... Since dragons eat us and are really mean... On the other hand look at you , you're really friendly." I wanted to add that she was also freaking cute but I was afraid that she might run off thinking I'm crazy.

"Don't be fooled by the Netflix shows you watch from Earth.... " Stella replied and said in a hushed tone that I barely heard."But yeah... You shouldn't put your trust in a dragon..."

My expression faded. "What do you mean?"

"Well for starters they can betray people at times. And sometimes go completely reversed, like from completely kind to completely mean."she explained.

"Why?"

"It's complicated, but it's like we become into dragons ourselves... But we get back to normal in only one way."

"And what is that?"

"When we ...- you'll find it weird."

"I don't care I want to know."

"When we lick the person who is most closest to us. And I mean closest to our heart." She said a soft smile appearing on her face.

"You were right. This is weird."

"It actually makes sense since dragons actually eat the prey but what does the dragon do first. Check how it tastes like."

"Ohh... That makes sense..."

~~end of flashback~~

I do not know how close I am to her but please don't let her eat me.

Just as I thought of running out the door I hit the wall.

I'm trapped. Oh my God what do I do?

She came extremely way too close.

Just then the thought of her biting me came up as I pulled my neck to the side unintentionally exposing my neck to her.

"Please... It's me David..." I pleaded.

I shut my eyes tight not wanting to see what is happening.

I felt something trail wet and long against my neck.

Then she pulled away and stepped a few steps back. Her head to the floor.

My hand rubbed against the place she licked as I glance at her.

She looked at me again her eyes still slits.

I saw the slits twitch forming her usual colorful magnificent eyes.

She studied me for a moment before she spoke. "Da...vid?..."
