Last night's events had really shaken her up, while she was on the shower, hot water relaxing finally her muscles, she thought about what that meant. Would she be willing to risk her life every full moon? Even though Craig claimed that she kept his humanity intact, she had seen too much of the beast to forget it. She loved him, but she didn't sign up for that... she wasn't sure how to act, every time she remembered his horrific howls, the hairs on her neck stood up in panic. She didn't even kiss him goodbye.. and she was feeling awful for that.
What if one day, he attacks me?
Her glass was already full, and was even starting to drip to the floor, as she contemplated it, lost in her thoughts.
Torquil was walking to the office, he looked terrible. He hadn't slept the night before, just wondering if Melanie was okay.. His dark blue shirt was crumpled, not neatly pressed like his shirts usually were. He had a days growth of stubble on his chin, and his hair looked like he had run his fingers through it a million times.
He sighed as he walked, his dark purple eyes taking in nothing until...Wait was that Melanie? At the water cooler?? He quickened his step, his heart beating wildly as he strode toward her. His first instinct was to take her in his arms and kiss her.. But he ignored that. He had too.
"Mel.. Hi Are you Okay?" He asked genuinely concerned for her, as he took her cup to stop the minor flood she was causing.
