The Werewolf in the Closet

The Werewolf In The Closet..2

     My wolf form color is black, white, and gray, like a cat color. Oh, by the way, I hate being called a dog. I was called that once by a friend. Once he called me that, he was limping for a year. Sorry, I couldn't help it.

     And if you're wondering how I know about Ady seeing green eyes in the dark, yeah, those are my eyes. I've known her since I, well both of us, were 10. We're both 17 now. I've been watching her, and waiting. I know that sounds creepy, but if you would have known me at young age, you might even think it's cute and romantic.

     I can't tell what I'm waiting for; it'd ruin everything.

     My parents, Linda and Robert, are werewolves, too. Both of them are. They're either out in wolf forms, or at home like a normal family. Whatever. Oh, and I also have a younger sister who is sixteen, Cqari. She, too, is also a bad-ass, and a Werewolf. We have fun together like Ady has fun with Vinny.

      Now, back to me and Ady walking, and she being cold, and I giving her my hoodie, and her calming down.

     "I was wondering...." I started.

     "Yeah?" she looked at me.

     "Do you ever feel like your mom isn't telling you anything?" I'm a total dumb-ass for asking her this. Of course she feels this way. Her mom is a were-

     Oops, not telling.

     "Yeah, I get that a lot," she smiled. "Do you?"

     "Yeah," I lied. My mom tells me everything. She told me I was werewolf when I was six! "What do you think your Mom isn't telling you?"

     We turned onto her block.

     "I don't know. Like, yesterday morning. My little brother, Vinny, passed me a bottle of syrup, and it went lop-sided. I caught it before it hit the ground. I have very fast reflexes. But my Mom looked at me like there was something she wasn't exactly telling me," she said. I'm sure she feels okay or just a little uncomfortable telling me this. We reached her porch. She faced me, and looked into my eyes. She sighed. "Thank you, Loren, for walking me home."

     "You're welcome." Then I smirked. "What, no kiss good-bye?"

     She snorted. "Hardly!"

     I laughed. "See ya, tomorrow, Ady."

     She smiled and went inside, closing the door.

     I felt like doing a happy dance for making her smile. But people would see me and think, 'What the hell is a hot boy doing out there doing some weird shit?'

     And actually, I had no need to change tonight. I'll just walk straight home.

     On the way home, my Mom and Dad were on the back porch. This should be great, I thought.

     "Loren! Where have you been?" my Mom almost roared in my face. Her ears were pointy, so were her teeth, and she had fur on the back of her hands.

     At least my Dad was calm.

     "I was walking a girl home."

     And just like that, my Mom was back to normal. "Ady?"

     "Yep," I popped my lips at the 'p' sound.

     "Oh, well, I'm sorry for yelling at you, but next time you better warn us," she said and walked into the house.

     Then my little sister, Cqari, comes out with her arms crossed. "What the hell do you want?" I asked. "Another race?"

     "No! The only reason you beat me was because you tried to trip me and I hurt my paw!" she yelled at me. I snorted. Whatever. She should know by now I play dirty. "I wanted to know if Ady is starting to like you. She is going to be my sister soon."

     "I have no idea yet," I shook my head.

     "Well, hurry up!" Cqari yelled.

     "Cqari!" my Mom yelled.

     I laughed at her, and she hit me in the chest with a rock. Man, she has good aim.

     Later at night, my parents changed and went to fetch the family some food. We get our meat from wild animals, really. If you open our freezer, all you see is meat. That's why we have a deep freezer also.

     "You suck, you know that?" Cqari said.

     "No, I really didn't know that," I said, sarcasm in my voice.

     "Drop the sarcasm. I'm serious!"

     "Yeah, I know."
