#Weeks Later…
I turned the meat to the other side on the rusty grill pan leaving it to cook, I wiped my brows with my palm back and sat back on the log. Melvin returned with more dried stick and I took one from him and added it to the fire..
“Wow.. This smells great!” He said, stretching his hand to grab one but I stopped him.
“It’s hot and not properly cooked yet so just calm down before you hurt yourself” I tell him and he nodded before joining me on the log “and besides, this is your first time complimenting human food, you always call it odorless and tasteless but now you just said it smells great!”
“Yeah, I noticed that too. It’s been weeks since I started the no-blood-s-cking diet so maybe this shows that I’m getting to our aim” he said and I nodded..
Well, he isn’t wrong.. The meat does smell nice.
It’s not like it’s the first time since I grilled meat for him right here in the woods, we’ve been doing it for days. Ever since my mom returned, gathering food for Melvin without her knowledge has been pretty tough as she stayed at home for many days so I just got enough foodstuffs here for him and cook..
I stood up and checked the meat again, it was ready.. I transferred them to a plate and made sauce with it, adding some mayonnaise and vegetables..
“All done!” I moved the plate to Melvin. I glanced at him after seeing the huge shadow hovering on mine and I saw he had transformed.. “Here,” I gave him a fork, taking his huge and hairy palm in my other hand..
On a normal day this would’ve so freaked me out and it’s surprising how fast I’ve gotten used to it and accepted it as a part of my life now..
He took the fork from me and grabbed a bite immediately, chewing at it.
“It’s good!” He said.
Well, about two days ago, I think his sense of taste started to get so much better cos he’s now starting to get the real taste of the food, though he complained of the bitter taste still lingering around but at least, he knows what a particular food taste like now even though it’s for a short period. It’s a pretty great improvement!
He took more quick bites and suddenly stopped, he faced the sky and sighed, releasing smoke from his mouth. I gave him a questioning look at the pause..
“Have you ever wished that your wh0le life could just change?” He asked and I gave him a slight frown. “The people you’ve met and known, places you’ve visited or lived in and who you are, like sometimes you just want to go back in time and fix those messy times. And then seen yourself in a different place, with different people and in a completely different circ-mstance than now?” He asked and I kept mute, just studying.
He continued “I have. Uncountable times but the next minute, I snap out of it and realize that I’m a thick scary clothed guy again” he said and smiled, taking another meat into his mouth.
“If you ask me what scares me most right now, it’s dying and not getting the chance to save my mother, to save my family and get them off my mess.. I don’t care if I don’t come out of it cos I was the one involved in it from the start, they know nothing about it” He said, I gave his palm a light squeeze.
He let out two heavy coughs, obviously the meat got stuck in his throat while he talked, I passed him the water and he took in large gulps and was calm in a few seconds..
“You know it’s improper to talk with food in your mouth, right?” I asked with a frown. “Should I tell you the table etiquette again?”
“You know, you’re the only one who still scolds in serious moments” he said. “But don’t worry, I’m used to it now” he smiled, taking another meat.
“Want some?”
“No, I’m good but if you don’t mind, I could use some comfort” I stretched on the log and place my head on his wide and hairy shoulder and honestly, it was comfortable..
When did I ever grow so much confidence..
I noticed his gaze on me, as I shut my eyes.
“Eat up biggie, I’ll just take a quick nap” I tell him, tilting my body to more comfort..

**Melvin’s POV**
.
I took another meat from the plate, my mind wandering in random thoughts before her soft snores reached me..
I moved my gaze to her and saw that she was fast asleep on my beastly body..
A smile tug at my l-ips, I vividly remember the first day she saw me in this body.
She was damn terrified, she couldn’t even look at me or stay an inch close to me. She had ran to an extent that her life got involved.
And at school, she’d tell me to stay off and get mad when I follow her, I was more like a plague to her even after realizing her involvement..
But things have really changed a wh0le lot, I mean just look at us.. I’ll say she’s changed pretty much too.
I dropped the fork on the plate and took off strands of her hair that fell to her face and covered a part of it. She mo-ned softly..
I smiled at the action and immediately her eyes flung open, she almost or probably caught me staring at her and smiling but I quickly switched expression and picked up the fork again.
“You were watching me, weren’t you?” She asked, sitting up.
“Um.. Well, not really.. It’s more of a coincidence” I denied, taking a meat.
“I saw you and I can’t sleep cos you were watching me so just eat up, I have to leave before my mom gets home so I’ll be able to sneak out to come check up on you” she said, placing her head on my th-gh this time.. I stared at her.
“Eat your food Melvin” she said almost immediately and it startled me, I glanced away from her and smiled..
How’s she seeing me with her eyes shut anyways?

\\D. Kincaid’s POV\\
.
I walked to the living room, grabbing my jacket from one of the long couches, I began pulling my arms into the sleeves..
“Here mom,” Kayla walked in, stretching my phone to me.
“Thanks baby” I took it from her, leaving it on the couch and buttoning up my jacket.
“Going somewhere?” I asked, noticing she was all dressed up with a backpack just after coming back from school an hour ago.
“Yeah, uh to the community library, I’ll be staying the evening there, there are so many books I have to catch up on” she said, holding the straps of her bag.
“Okay, I can drop you off before I go to the station. Keep this files in your bag, I’ll take them when we get to the library” I said, giving her a stack of files..
“Are you sure about dropping me cos I know how busy you always are at work. Won’t that make you late?” She asked.
“It’s fine, I can drop you” I said, grabbing my phone again.
We got to my car and she took the backseat, I started the car and zoomed off to the library’s direction.
After a few minutes, we got to the library and I brought the car to a halt.
“Thanks mom” Kayla rushed down, blowing as she made her way into the library. I waved at her and reversed the car, heading to work..
I had barely drove for fifty seconds when I remembered the files I had left in Kayla’s bag.
“Arrgh!” I grumbled and reverse again, heading back to the library.
I was close to getting there when I sight Kayla leaving the library and taking a different director, obviously going to somewhere else.
My brows furrowed..
She had told me she was going to the library and staying the evening but it hasn’t been up to a minute and she’s leaving and going somewhere else?
Where?? I started the car again.
