After so many years of horrific dreams and sweat-inducing nightmares, Connor should have been used to not-so-peaceful times of rest. But this time they were different. There was killing, gore, and blood at the paws of a werewolf as usual, but this time the killer was him.
His parents struggled. His father fought. His mother pleaded. He tried to stop, but still he killed them without control or mercy.
As their blood rained down like the precipitation of a storm, Connor woke, crying out in emotional agony.
***
She needed him? Curtis knew this. He'd assisted her many times already and she would be dead if not for him (granted, she would also still be a normal wolf had they never met), but to hear her say it was quite another matter. Of course, he needed her, too. After so many years she was easing the pain of his lonely life.
She was trembling.
Curtis gently took Katra's chin in his fingers and leaned in close.
"You may not believe it, but... I also need you."
And then he kissed her.

Aurora teetered on the edge of the window... She wasn't sure if she could make it down... especially with a hand that was slippery from bleeding.
She crawled back off the window ledge and went to go fetch a bandaid. All of her bandaids were brightly colored with the antiseptic ointment already on them. They were very handy... but in retrospect not so easy to hide. Having a neon blue bandaid across her wrist was just as obvious as having a puddle of blood at her feet (which was once again making her want to lick the floor. )
Aurora reached into her jewelry box and rummaged through the drawer that had all her bracelets. At the very bottom of it was her one rocker wrist-band. She slipped it on. It covered the band aid quite nicely.
Aurora thought about that for a second. She sighed and immediately regretted the following inhale. It was really horrible realizing that the floor of all things looked tasty... especially when it looked like something out of a horror movie. Her bloody footprints were just about everywhere now. ...but she didn't have a mop and there was no way she was spending one more second contemplating licking the floor.
Aurora crawled back out onto the ledge and started to let herself down. She was planning on just dropping herself from below the window down onto her feet... She figured it would work since she did so nicely last night.
Aurora took a deep breath, and then she dropped.

He had been restless for a while now, so Luka had already moved back to the bed. She was there to catch him when he woke up. As he cried out, she took one of his hands and stroked his head with her other hand. "Shh babe, its alright. Your here with me. No one but me." He had made it a little longer than she expected-throught the entire afternoon and well into the evening
~~~~~~
Brittany needed some real comfort. Maybe she could go see Yakov tomorrow. He was always so nice. Jonas was obviously busy and no one else at work was even pleasant to her. Plus, Jeff would be there and she could try to redeem herself for her boss. Thoroughly cheered up by these thoughts, she changed and ran off through the woods. "Maybe I could go visit him tonight...no...its getting dark, he's probably not even in his room. I guess I'll just have to wait." The squirell she had caught and had been talking to escaped and ran, looking back every once in a while in confusion.

Kat felt a burst of fire that spread down her spine. They had kissed before, but something was different this time, somethign she couldn't quite pinpoint but she was alright with that. She moved so she was almost on top of him and dug both her hands into his hair as kissed him back.
----------------------
Jonas finished with the young boy and easily made him think this was all dream before sending him back out into the world. Jonas wiped the small drible of blood from his lower lip onto a leather gloved hand. He used a lot of control to not furfill the desire that burned in his netherregends. Jonas didn't like the sudden desire for intamency that came with feeding, he tried to avoid it at all costs, then again thats what the boss said made him so angry and emotionless all the time. Jonas could live with that.
He stepped out of the alley and into the night and took a deep breath. He had no plan that night and had no clue what to do for the rest of the evening. He sighed and started walking around campus.
------------------------
Jeff was enjoying a deep sleep all snuggled up with Yakov when his eyes flashed open. "Oh my goodness!" He jumped up, this time a little more carefully and avoiding through Yakov to the ground. He quietly creeped over to his desk and started editing the song he had written earleir and started a new chorus.

Although this time was much less violent, Yakov was not at all pleased at Jeff's tearing off. "My God you whore. What is it now?"

Jeff didn't hear what Yakov said but heard something. "Huh, yeah I'll be back in a second..." He didn't bother turning his head. He ended up writing about four more pages and rewiting the intro to the song. Once he was done he turned around notived Yakov and an idea popped into his head.
"I'v got a present for you!"

Yakov groaned and snuggled deeper into the pillow. "This better be good." He couldn't keep himself from smiling.

"I got this idea from you! So, it's yours." He waved the 7 pages at Yakov. "But if you don't want the song...I'll just throw it away..." He motioned over to the trash can.

Yakov didn't bother fighting the smile this time. "Well, I wouldn't want you to go throught the trouble of trying to fish it out of the garbage later when I'm not looking." He pushed himself up and than collapsed back down. "But I think you should bring it over here and show me. Somebody wore me out last night and than woke me up really really early in the morning...you know the part of the morning that some people still call night."

Yakov read through the multitude of pages several times trying to put all of the parts together. When he finished, he looked up at Jeff and just stared at him.

"You don't like it!?" Jeff sighed and bowed his head. He knew it, the song sucked, just like the hundred he wrote last month that were now being recycled in some powerplant outside the city, where all the cities garbage goes.

Yakov sat up, lifted Jeff's head, and kissed him. "It's beautiful." He kissed him again. "I was just wondering, cause lyric interpretation is not exactly my strong point, who's taming who?"

Jeff's frown quickly became a smile. "You really like it, and the taming...we will just figure that out tomorrow night."

Though he was trembling, Connor managed to cling desperately to Luka. She was soft, she was warm, but most importantly she was there and she was real. In the past he may have been embarrassed or ashamed that someone else knew of his nightmares, but now he was incredibly relieved. Someone finally understood. Someone was finally with him to chase the ghosts away.
***
"Mmm."
Curtis succumbed to Katra's desperate assertiveness. His hands traveled up her sides, over her clothes and held carefully to her back.
