The Power of a Petal

Dust Bunnies

After my shower, which left me feeling refreshed and refined, me and Gouihn had bing-watched all the Transformers movies. I enjoyed the fight between Optimus and Sentinel, in fact I almost laughed when Optimus was pissed in the beginning of 'Dark of the Moon'. Gouihn's favorite character was Iron hide, which is self explanatory. I'm sure he shed a tear when he was blown to bits. I spent the rest of the night playing chess with him, and I don't remember how I fell asleep. All I know is that today should be Saturday? I don't know. I wake up tired, like I didn't get a wink.

This morning... A feeling in my gut, told me today I should be careful. I should know why, but I can't explain it. Bill is angry with me, I hurt Legoshi's feelings, I scared Louis, and Haru... is the only one I can talk to right now. Good thing it's Garden club today. Or maybe it's biology day. I sigh, sitting up from my messy bed. I get to my feet, stretching and yawning the tiredness out of my eyes. I stumble over to my window, opening it and watering my flowers with a water bottle I kept filled at all times on my window sill. To my left, is my desk that holds my computer and mouse. To my right, is nothing but a wall. I plan to paint it.

In the farthest corner of my room, is my bed, and beside it the door to exit. Under my bed, is my chest closet, which is where I grab my uniform. I dress slowly, making sure to look normal. My tail wagging ever so lightly as I put on my dress shoes. I go to the bathroom, brushing my teeth and combing my head fur. My ears... I cut them, I slice the tips of both of them, intending to cut the fur only. My bad. I wrap them slightly, the tips of my ears now covered in white bandage. I sigh, leaving the bathroom and walking down the hall to the kitchen. Like always, Gouihn was still asleep, and the sun was not up yet. I make myself some bamboo tea, and I drink it like coffee, until I wake fully. Next, is me grabbing my backpack and leaving the place.

I plug in my headphones, listening to 'Never Love Again', by my Skittles Imposter. It represents my situation kind of. I close my eyes, breathing in the morning air that I've learned to love. I ignore the alley's calling me, I ignore the calls I've gotten from my customers. Maybe this is how they died, because they tried to stop... My parents...

I see the school grounds, and I can hear numerous girls. Louis is there, here I come. He sees me, he gives me a sympathetic look and I don't receive it, because I keep walking. He holds flowers, which were intended to put at Tem's door. I see Legoshi there, and I'm stuck wondering. Are they friends as well? I keep my headphones in, and I continue walking. I lick my teeth, sighing heavily as I sit down in my first period. I also ignore the looks I get for my bandaged ears. My elbows which had healed since I fell off the stage, burned. Probably because Louis was there when it happened, and I was near him. This ain't Harry Potter, it suddenly soothed. The claw marks on my side... Long since healed since I first met the wolf. I don't take my headphones out during the entire class period, and next class was horrible. I sat beside Legoshi, who seemed pissed off. Was he mad at me? Probably. I take out my headphones, tapping his foot with mine. His legs curl underneath his chair and I knew.

When the bell rung, he didn't push the crowd for me, in fact he left without me. That's fine. No harm done right? I make my way to Lunch late, and I catch Haru outside. I didn't bother to see if Legoshi was going to sit beside me today, so I went outside with Haru.

"You'll never believe what happened this morning! Those girls that threw the water on you the first time threw my entire mattress out the dorm windows!" She huffs, plopping down beside me.

"That sounds horrible, were you able to get it back up there?" I say with less enthusiasm then normal.

"Yup!" I smile, she smiles, she doesn't notice a thing. Perfect. I just want everything to be fine. Just dandy.

"Well, what'd you get for lunch?" I peek over her form, seeing a type of soup. I'm not fond of soup, its just a gross liquid full of soaked food.

"It's... I don't know. It's gross though. Want my soda?" I smile, taking it from her hands. The size difference... It's scary. Her hands are so much smaller then mine. I chuckle, chugging the soda. It burns my throat, but it makes her laugh. I laugh too, struggling to breath. The physical affects of coming clean hurts, my body wants to... it wants to leave.
