Dedicated to Emerald605 RehamAbdalla zahramiah peachy_mida shafsah_1 WaveyyJean my old school friends that I just can't do without. Miss you guys, and sorry we didn't get much time to talk today.
Luv, Mel
Peter was on me in a flash, shoving me back on the bed, his hand pressing down on my mouth.
I thrashed wildly, bucking my hips as he tried to pin my legs beneath his own. His hand slipped form my mouth and I drew in a breath to scream again.
"Hey, Rena. Listen. Listen to me. Calm down," he whispered, trying to catch hold of my flailing wrists.
"Rena. Calm down."
"No! You freaking drugged me and you think I'm going to listen to you? I just escaped a bloody Gang! I'm not gonna be killed by a crazy ass boy who's on crack and some creepy squirrel guy-"
"Hey!"
I twisted to see Squirrel Guy staring at me, his eyes filled with indignation at my remark.
"I'm not creepy," he huffed, sticking his chin up in the air. His furry brown ears quivered.
"See!" I cried.
"He talked! The Squirrel Guy talked. He doesn't even have a proper mouth! It's impossible. Squirrels don't talk. Nor do they have human bodies, which is further evidence that you've done something to my head!"
"The only one who's damaged your head is you," Squirrel Guy muttered as he turned towards the door.
I narrowed my eyes at him and glared.
"I did not drug you."
Peter visibly bristled.
"Ye-"
"Shut up for a moment and let me explain!"
I shut my mouth.
"Now, before I was so rudely interrupted," he began, turning to glare at Squirrel Guy when he snickered.
"Rena, this is Seth. Seth, Rena."
There was a long pause.
"So...is anyone going to tell me why Seth is a squirrel?"
Peter sighed.
"Seth. Change."
"But-"
"Now."
Squirrel Guy made a face.
"You're no fun, Peter."
Peter's expression didn't waver.
"Sometimes, you act like a grown up," he continued.
An emotion flitted across Peter's face, his eyes flashing a brilliant green for a second.
It was gone before I could catch it.
He caught me looking at him and jerked his head towards Squirrel Guy.
"Look."
I looked.
