I stood there gaping as he shifted from foot to foot, hands covering his lower regions, not believing what I had just seen. Henry just changed from a wolf. What? How did this happen?

Henry cleared his throat, "uh... can we talk, inside?" His eyes connected with mine as he finished with a, "please"?

"Yeah". I turned towards the door and made my way up the steps. The sound of low growls made me wip my head around so fast I thought I heard my neck snap. Henry was in his wolf form again lowly growling to the light grey wolf and the one that looked red.

With a bark from the red wolf the two were gone and Henry was coming turning towards me to come inside. He stepped onto the steps changing back into his human form just in time to ascend to the porch.

The lights were off and it looked like no one had been home for a couple hours. I made my way to my room though I was playing it cool I was so nervous to be around a naked Henry.

I'm not going to say that I have not ever looked at my best friend, but lately I have come to realize that I find Henry very attractive. So attractive that up until now I thought about throwing his body up against the walls of my room. Which was where we were going to get pants for a very naked, attractive, Henry. Which reminds me.

"Is this why your avoiding me?". I turned handing him a pair of sweatpants that happened to be his from a sleepover.

Henry put tthe pants on and answered, "Yeah…" he sat on the bed with a sigh and began to explain.

"My great grandpa is a wolf. I didn't know anything until a couple months ago" he looked at Vlad, " he told me he knew who you were and that he has been watching you your whole life that us becoming friends was a great thing because one day the pack to protect you would be passed down and as long as we were together I can help you."

Help me?! As far as I can tell you have been ignoring me!! "So helping or 'protecting' me is you avoiding me? If you don't want to protect me you dont have to. I didn't ask you to besides I can take care of myself. Hell I didn't even know any of this was possible.". I stood up hands in the air, "I mean werewolves?"

"I wasn't avoiding you Vlad!" Henry was in front of me know holding my shoulders looking into my eyes hard. I melted inside he looked genuine with his next words, "I needed to understand first. I mean I knew about vampires and stuff I mean hell Vlad I'm your drudge. I didn't even think wolves like this were real." Henry sat back on the bed but not removing his eye contact, " I didn't know what was going on and I spent the last few weeks with my great grandpa and my uncle. Understanding what I am supposed to do, and now I know. I need to be there for you when you need me and that's not what I have been doing. I'm sorry Vlad." He stood up and gave a soft smile holding out his hand, " I really am".

I stared at his hand just a second longer before we slapped our palms together, "okay I forgive you. Just no more avoiding me and why not introduce me to your new friends I saw you with?"

"Well tomorrow I'm bringing you to meet the pack. I don't know anything about what that black wolf wants and why it tried to attack you tonight, but I'm sure uncle will know something."

It was pretty late when we decided to head to the kitchen to get some food. I heated up some left over beef stew for Henry and a cup of blood for myself and sat at the island in the kitchen. "So tomorrow I meet a pack of wolves." I didn't say it loud but I'm sure Henry heard me because I saw him look at me from the corner of my eye.

"Yeah" was my only response as he finished eating. I watched as he washed his bowl and put it in the drying rack and look at me leaning on the counter, "they're not bad just a, roudy; talkative bunch."

I smiled at the thought of a bunch of over grown puppies rolling around in the dirt. Finishing my cup I too rinsed and washed it placing it next to Henry's drying bowl. "This was an interesting night and all but now I'm beat and ready for bed". Henrys laugh made me smile as I went back to my room to make a bed for Henry and tuck myself into my own bed. I hear Henry shuffle into his blankets and with a quick yawn and half asleep 'goodnights' we were out.
