“Hurry up Nina! I am ready to go!” Holly said impatiently. I was already feeling sluggish, so I wasn’t in a hurry.
“Girl, you better move, my tail needs to stretch!” Raven said. Rolling my eyes, I shove three bites off my plate and hand it to mom to clean.
“Thanks mom!” We ran out the door before she could even respond.
“Where should we shift at? It needs to be deep enough that no one sees us naked but close enough to home.” Holly asked, deep in thought. I see her rolling her eyes and I know she is talking to her wolf.
“I’ll show you where I went last night.” We found the clearing and removed our clothes and sat facing each other.
“Will it hurt?” Holly whispered.
“Yes, but only for a while. Once you shift, it will all go away and it will be the best feeling in the world!”
Two hours later and a screaming Holly, I finally see a small grey wolf standing in front of me. I also shifted but this time it only took me a few seconds. It was still painful but not near as bad. Once Raven and Indy get to know each other, they take off. Jumping over logs and even catching a rabbit to eat. After about three hours, we find our way back to our clothes and slip them on.
“That was the best feeling I ever had. It is so freeing. You see and smell everything differently now!” Holly said in awe.
“I know, I feel like nothing can touch us when we are in our wolf form. Let’s go take a nap, I am so tired though” I said, struggling to make it to my house.
“Yeah, defiantly not doing anything today!”
As soon as we get inside, I take the couch and curl up with a thick fuzzy red blanket with tribe patterns on it and Holly takes the recliner with a grey blanket with a wolf on it. Grabbing the remote, I flipped the channels till I found a horror movie.
“Look at the blankets we chose? Interesting colors, isn’t it?” I laughed but it fell on deaf ears as Holly was already asleep. Girl could sleep through a bombing. Sighing, I wiggled my way into my pillow and closed my eyes.
“Girls! Are you going to wake up?” Something well yelling at me and I couldn’t figure out why? Just let a girl sleep. I need 5 more minutes!
“GIRLS!” Shit, I opened one eye and looked at my dad standing before me with a smile on his face. Groaning, I just rolled over and was about to settle back in, but I suddenly felt cold air!
“AAAARRRR Why did you do that?” Holly screamed. Dad had pulled off both of our blankets and successfully dumped Holly on the floor.
“Well, girls, it is almost supper time and you have slept the day away! We have cake and presents, plus Holly’s family is coming to dinner, so get upstairs and shower and be ready in 2 hours!” Dad said, taking his place on the recliner and turning the T.V. on.
Holly was rubbing her hip as she sprinted to the bedroom to get in the shower before me! I let her win because I wanted another 5 minutes of sleep before our little family party!
Soon we were showering and Holly was fussing over my hair and making up. I honestly hated doing my makeup and wearing dresses was not my thing.
