This choice: Jack's parents still think it's a costume, they talk and invite him to stay. • Go Back...Chapter #6An Invitation of Disaster by: wolffurry   As David entered the living room, he saw Jack's parents talking with each other. They suddenly stop as the two spot the 8 foot werewolf entering the room.
"Aah, I see that you're feeling better now. You look beaten up when we found you in the woods." Jack's father said.
"Oh, um...Thank you for saving me. I'll be going now." David said as he made his way to the exit across the hall.
"Nonsense! You have to rest here first until we're absolutely sure that you're feeling better!" Jack's mother said.
"N-no, really, I'm fine now. I wouldn't want to-"
David was kinda dragged onto the couch by the two as they began asking questions, like does his knee hurt, or does he have a stomach ache...
Jack, meanwhile, was upstairs in his room thinking about what David told him.
"Okay...So that guy didn't really want to eat me. But the way he looked at me...Maybe it was the chicken? But still..."
Jack looked at her unconscious sister in front of him, sprawled all over the carpet. He lifted her up and carried her onto the bed, trying to be as gentle as he can. Afterwards, he walked out of the room and made his way to the stairs, where he heard the voices of his parents. Together with a third voice he just heard a few moments ago.
"Please, I'm telling you, I'm perfectly fine!" David insisted.
"And we're telling you that it would be rude of us to leave you alone when you were unconscious a few hours ago." Jack's father said.
"And could you take off the costume now so we can see what you really look like?" Jack's mother asked.
"Uh...costume?"
"Mom! Dad!" Jack said, entering the living room.
"Oh Jack! Right on time. Maybe you could convince your new friend to take off his costume." Jack's mother said.
Jack looked at his parents, then at David.
"Mom, dad, can't you guys see that it's really not a costume?"
"Not this again. Of course it's a costume Jack!" his dad said.
"Then how do you explain the mouth moving when he talks?" Jack said.
"It's those new designs they put on modern costumes these days. Honestly!" his mom said.
"Please, I really feel uncomfortable being here any longer. I'll just go now so I can go back home." David said.
"That reminds me. Where do you live David?" Jack's dad asked.
After thinking about it, David kinda lost his home in a way. After getting kicked out of his pack, he's pretty much unwelcome in the woods now.
"I...Don't think I have a home now..."
"That's terrible! Wait, how about you stay here with us!" Jack's mom said.
"WHAT!?" David and Jack said in unison.
"That's a great idea honey! He can live here until we can find another home for him." Jack's dad said.
Immediately, both Jack and David began spouting out a number of reasons why he shouldn't live there.
"I'm sorry, but I've decided. David will live here until we find a new home for him. David, you can sleep in Jack's room."
"What! But dad!"
"Really mister...Jack's dad, I'd rather, uh, stay in an empty room, if that's okay with you..."
"Sorry boys, but we don't really have any spare beds in our house, and I know Jack has an extra mattress in the closet, so it's really the only choice." Jack's mom said.
David helped Jack carry his sister Sara back into her room. Afterwards, Jack got out the mattress and laid out as far away from his own bed as possible.
"Okay, now here's some rules. 1. No eating my family. 2. No eating me. 3. Don't ever go near my bed when I'm asleep. And 4. always follow the first three rules. You got that?" Jack said, getting on the bed without ever taking his gaze off of the furry beast in front of him.
"Alright, you don't exactly trust me, and I understand. But believe me when I say that I will not try to hurt any of you. Okay?" David said, practically pleading to his sort-of human friend.
"Well...Okay, but remember the rules!"
Jack, surprisingly, was fast asleep withing half an hour. David couldn't sleep though. He still kept thinking about his animalistic urges. If it took control of him a few times before, then what if...
"No...This time, I'm in control. This is how I'm going to live my life from now on. My diet is completely human-free..."  indicates the next chapter needs to be written. |
