{ben's POV}

sighing I close my laptop and get up from my desk chair. I basically threw myself on my bed and let out a dramatic sigh. I have been trying to memorize more pickup lines to use on Bart. I have been visiting the doctor's office every day for the past week trying and failing to flirt with him. but all he did was smile and tell me it was a good one. it was starting to get on my nerves. just as I was about to drift off into sleep my phone began to ring. with a groan, I reached for it and picked it up without checking who it was.

"where the fuck have you been?" my best friend growled into my ear startling me enough to almost have me fall of the bed

"Alex! Why in the hell are you screaming?" I asked back putting the phone back against my ear 

"because my so-called best friend has abandoned me" he tells me dramatically

"I have not abandoned you I saw you not 4 days ago" he tells him

"yes and that's the problem I haven't seen you in days. what are you doing now? can I come over?" he asks I yawn looking at my bedside clock 

"its the middle of the night Alex" I replied rolling over to lay on my back.

"oh yeah it is. okay how about tomorrow?" he asks 

"Yeah tomorrow I'll come over and make up for disappearing for...days" I replied 

"okay okay good night ben" he tells me and hangs up

"good night " I whispered to myself and finally let my eyes close

i...

I was in the woods.

why was I in the woods?

The last thing I remember was.....where was I? oh yes, I was in my bed, in my room sleeping. so how did I get here? I heard something behind me and turned. nothing was there but darkness. I then realized that I was barefooted when a particularly sharp stone cut my feet.

"fuck" I cursed and hobbled over to the biggest rock I could find and sat down. I was bleeding. I waited for my were healing to fix the small cut but nothing happened except blood trickling down my feet.  just then I heard movement ahead of me. past what I could see using my werewolf eyesight and the moon's light. there was definitely something out there.

I waited still as a statue waiting for it to move again or make a sound but there was nothing for a while. then there it was. a huge animal lurking in the shadows. I gulped and tried to shift but I couldn't I didn't understand why my shift was fighting me.  just as I was about to give up the animal stalked out of the shadows towards me. and it was the most beautiful wolf I've ever seen. it had illuminating grey almost silver furr and the most beautiful green emerald eyes that seemed to beckon me closer, deeper.

I tensed as the wolf came so close I could feel each and every exhale. it moved closer slowly as if scared it would startle me. then it nudged my hand away from my feet and with hesitation I let go. it felt like I was in a trance since the wolf showed its self. it looked up at me with an almost pleading look before licking over my cut. hissing I tried to pull away but it whined and nudged me gently moving me back into the place I was to continue licking at my cut. after a few licks my cut was able to stop bleeding and heal on its own. satisfied with its work the wolf looked at me again and moved even closer to put its head onto my lap. I hesitated for a second or so before reaching out and touching one of its ears. his fur was softer than it looked.

just as I was about to say something I felt like the whole world was ripped away from under me. I felt like I was underwater and being shaken at the same time. gasping I sat up to bump heads with Alex.

"Alex? what the hell?" I asked rubbing my forehead "what are you doing in my bed ?" 

"I waited for you all morning and came over after lunch" he tells me

"lunch? wait what time is it?" I asked him back and turned to look at the clock on my bedside table it showed that it was well into the afternoon

"I slept all day?" I asked him surprised because I never slept in

"almost, now come on your mom is saving you some brownies and I need you to convince her to give me more" he tells me and gets off the bed. sighing I pull the covers off of me and I was about to get out of bed when I see it. a spot of blood on my light blue sheets. 

"What happened to your feet ?" Alex asks seeing the blood at the same time as me

"i...I don't understand" I whispered confused rubbing the soul of my feet over the small scar that now lay there

"what don't you understand?" my confused best friend asks

"it was a dream...." was all I could say because it was a dream, wasn't it?
