The Raven Colored Door

Life, Who Thought of Such a Thing?

Who ever thought that headaches should be a thing, should go to hell after I kill 'em for ever coming up with the thought. Just thinking about my worst headache ever and needing to take medicine, made me growl.

Wait, did I just GROWL? Holy shit I just growled at the thought of headaches and how much they hurt. 

I sat up straight in a panic when I realized that I'm in the comfort of my own bed. How did I get here? And why does my body hurt all over? 

I get up slowly and wait until my head clears after being light headed. When my head decided to be  nice, I took in my room and noticed that it was morning. I looked to my left to see my nightstand, my alarm clock, my nerdy glasses for when I'm too lazy to put in contacts, and the things that I brought with me on my trek into the woods. Surprisingly, my phone was on the charger. All I remember from last night was Serifia kissing my forehead and me passing out.

Come to think of it, I actually do feel different, I don't know how to explain how I feel different, but I do.

That's because you're finally powerful.

That had my sitting up straight, looking around my room for that voice that wasn't mine, my mother's, or Serifia's. Then I came to the thought that the voice came from my head. Then that's when I remembered that I had an inner animal.

Was that her talking to me?

Yes, is was your inner animal talking to you, so... Hiya nice to meet cha! My name is Cadence. I am you, and you're me. But if you die, I live, and if I die, you still die unfortunately, but only if we're separated. If you die and we're connected like we are now, then we both die.

Great way to greet someone. I shook my head smiling slightly and got up to get changed from yesterday's clothes and took a shower and got into clean new clothes that felt soft and nice. When I was done, I then emerged from my bat cave of a room and went to the kitchen (yes I'm nerdy, I'm just being myself).

When going to the kitchen, I'll have to pass the living room, and I was expecting my mother to be passed out on the couch and will end up having  a major hangover. What I wasn't expecting was my high school's school player, Hunter Cruzsio. 

You've got to be kidding me. Why is he here? And how did he get my address?

He found you passed out in the rain last night and took you here, but also remember that he's a werewolf. They have a specific sent that lets you know what they are, and they have another smell that differentiates which pack they are from. It can get a little tedious.

I smirk to myself and I was so rudely interrupted when I heard someone clearing their throat. Looking up I see Hunter looking at my weirdly, like a love sick puppy. I give a confused and untrusting face. As I opened my mouth to say something, he spoke.

"You know, if you don't want someone to save you from hypothermia, then let me know and I'll make sure to not do so." He practically growled out. I narrowed my eyes slightly, but any argument that at the tip of my tongue quickly disappeared right before my eyes. 

Giving a sigh in defeat and understanding, I have Hunter a smile and I resumed my journey to the kitchen for some food.

"I'm sorry for that, just didn't expect you to be here, although, I do want to say thank you. And before you cleared your throat I was in my own little world thinking-"

"How I'm so irresistible?" He finished a statement that I didn't even think of. And the little fucker cut me off.

Whipping around, I looked at him like he'd gone nuts, and in my eyes, he has.

"Did the rain make you go brain dead? Cause I don't remember thinking that you're irresistible, because your not. But I'll admit, you are good looking and handsome, but don't let that get to your ego or head." I retorted, he laughed and started to follow me into my kitchen. I gave a look then decided to be a nice hostess and get us both some cereal.

As I was setting both the bowls down started to eat out of mine, my egg-donor waked in sober. Being surprised, I looked up and smelled the air discreetly and couldn't smell any alcohol in the air. And what surprised me even more was that she started to make some food for herself.

"You're up early, Mother." I said around a mouth full of Cocoa Puffs.

"Well of course I am when we have company and he's your boyfriend." She said matter of factly. That had both me and Hunter choking on our cereals. He tried to hide his laugh with a cough after looking at my face. 

Me? I was horrified by my mother's words. I gave a horrified look and intentionally scooted over in my seat at the table.

"I can tell you right now that that isn't the case. He just stayed night because after he brought me home, it was extremely late and he needed someplace to crash for the night." I said, glaring at the back of my mother's head.

"Why were you out so late again? I'm sorry I forgot." She asked, with her back still to me, I growled and gritted my teeth. Hunter looked over in surprise and tried to sniff in my my direction without me noticing. 

He failed. I could see him out of the corner of my eye. I relaxed a little bit and I went back to my breakfast after answering with, "I got lost in the woods after our fight."

She looked back at my sadly and gave me a sad smile before turning back to her food.

"Whelp. it has been a pleasure, but I'm sure Maricella would want to get to school on time, and I better get going so that I could change before school." Hunter broke the silence and got up put his bowl in the sink after rinsing it.

I nodded and replied with 'Mhm' and went back to my room to slip on my DCs and grabbed my bag, phone, wallet, school ID, truck keys, and my sunglasses. As I was walking out of the house I saw a huge black wolf at the edge of the woods with this look of sympathy in its eyes. I sniffed in its direction and it smelled like Hunter. Pine and wet undergrowth. I smiled and gave a slight nod of the head and he looked at me weirdly before I went into my truck and drove the twenty minute drive to Hudson High.

When life gives you lemons and you have nothing to do with them, except biting the bitter truth and except that at times, you need help.

Oh life, who ever thought of you? I need to know so that I can punch them in the face.

Arriving at school was a start. Everyone was giving me looks of respect and approval.

What's up with that?

Hi you guys, I hope that y'all are liking it so far, sorry that I didn't update yesterday, I was busy with roasting chilies, those took ALL day. Anyway, if there are any errors, let me know and remember, I love you all. My nightmares.
