Nightly visit

The sun hasn't risen yet, so you are left searching the darkness for a black cat. Needless to say, you fail to spot him. Your heart is still beating fast, the images still fresh in your head.

"It all felt so real... fucking magical cat, I need to talk to Anna about her stupid fucking pet."

With all your attention on the cat, you almost miss the items placed carefully next to the desk and you almost trip on them.

"What's this?".

They weren't there when you went to bed, and with a quick search inside them, it's easy to see what happened. Apparently, Archie came to deliver the items that you've ordered, and he decided that the best time to do so is in the middle of the night. It looks like Anna worked hard to make them because it wasn't that long ago that you placed the order. Protecting your family became a priority after fighting the vampires became a part of your life, and what better way than to use magical items, so you are glad to see that she made an effort to help you get rid of your worries.

"Maybe I should buy her something to thank her, but what does a witch even need?..."

You try to calm your heart down, but sadly, inspecting the new goodies has little effect on calming your emotions, so when you finally can't stand it anymore, you just open the window further and jump down.

Once you've made up your mind, you start moving faster and faster, in your werewolf form, and soon you find yourself staring at your girlfriend's bedroom window. You decide to roam around for a little bit to make sure it's safe. Finding nothing out of the ordinary, you easily open the door and make your way into the house.

Carefully, so as not to wake her father, you make your way up the stairs to her bedroom and open the door.

Jenny is sleeping with her back towards you, so you enter the room, close the door and stare at her for a few minutes, not knowing what to do.

Great, she's safe! Do I leave now? Why am I even here... I had a nightmare and now I'm here?... she'll make fun of me for days .... what the fuck am I doing...

The anxiety you felt not knowing your girlfriend's condition is slowly being replaced by the uncertainty of your next move. Everything up until now has been based on instinct alone, and since your inner wolf screamed for you to be by her side... well... here you are. And now that he's satisfied, you're back in full control of your emotions, and your human brain says you're stupid and should probably have just used a phone.

Fuck it! Since you're already here, you might as well stay. Sure, she might tease you in the morning, but you might as well take advantage of the situation, so with great care not to wake her up you transform back into a human and make your way towards her bed.

You get in next to her and put an arm around her body, pulling her into a hug, a move she definitely approves of as she grabs your hand with her own and holds it tight.

"You're awake?" you whisper, but she doesn't reply.

Surrounded by her familiar smell you slowly drift to sleep.
