I wake with a start then still.
Claws run across my back.
One of Landon's hands must have broken free.
They were light on my skin but I could still feel every claw slide down.
I took a chance and turned my head slowly.
Bright blue eyes met mine.
Landon wasn't in control.
"Landon?" My voice shakes as the words come out.
His eyes flicker for a moment but remain bright blue.
"Landon.. your claws-"
My voice brakes with fear.
His eyes flash to dark blue as he turns more human.
The claws turn to fingertips and I relax a little.
The fog disappears and I see the worry on Landon's face.
The rubbing stops and I lift my head up.
I smile and place my hand on his cheek.
"How are you feeling?" He try's to sit up but the other straps keep him down.
"What happened?" His voice was pained.
"I dont know, all I saw was you covered in blood." My voice broke as a tear slipped down my cheek.
He looked pained again. "Don't cry sis, I'm fine really."
He reached up and wiped the tear away.
I smiled as I tried to stop the tears.
"Are you hungry?
I could get you some steak." As if on cue his stomach rumbled.
I giggle. "I'll say that's a yes."
I stood and walked to the kitchen.
Last night I managed to scrap up the still good steak from the ruined.
There wasn't as much as I'd like but I put some in a bowl.
I cut it it into small pieces and grabbed a fork.
I make my way to the living room and sat in the chair.
I get some steak on the fork and put it upto his mouth.
He smirks at me. "Your going to feed me?"
I nod. "Of course."
The smirk disappears and he looks uncertain.
I shove it closer to his mouth and he hesitantly opens it.
I put it in his mouth and wait.
He closes his mouth around the fork.
He makes a grunting noise as he chews.
"Too bad we didn't get to eat more last night."
I laugh softly and put more steak on the fork.
"If you two weren't always fighting or not trying to beat the other at something I wouldn't know what to do.
I'm kinda relieved at the way the fight went down last night,
I mean at least you two weren't fighting or-"
My face snapped to his as I processed what I had just said.
My cheeks turned a bright red as he stared at me in shock.
"Im so sorry, I didn't mean-I wasn't trying-"
I looked down fighting the urge to cry.
I'm such an idiot!
Why did I say that?
A finger lifted my chin, and my eyes met dark blue ones.
"It's ok Amy. I know what you meant." he gave me a small smile.
I smiled back softly, embarrassed.
