The smell of home made cookies in all shapes and sizes circled around his head in his sleep and he smiled happily. Ever since he had a taste of Mrs. Greyford's food, it was the only thing he could have possibly dreamed about. Tons and tons of food. He stretched his body like a starfish across the bed that was obviously too small for him, and mumbled on about how all that was tasty. Banging on the door didn't do well in even making him turn over or change position and he slept through all of Skylar's raging. Then again, it has been a while now and he already got used to her going bonkers. In a dream, he scratched his nose again and again. Misbehaving food kept teasing him instead of jumping straight into his mouth.
"Stop. Be nice..." He mumbled and turned his head, but the itchiness of his nose continued to bother him. Now, he was turned into a 'big bad wolf' and in his dream he chased all those mean foods, winning. However, it was a much of a surprise when a pie approached and pleaded with highly familiar voice to whisper something to him. Ren eagerly laid down his head and listened.
"Yes?" He whispered.
"WAKE THE HELL UP!" the pie screamed and slammed him across the snout before it disappeared and he woke up, moving his cap of his eyes and panting.
"That was...eh..."
"Morning, sunshine. Glad to have you back." Skylar mumbled sarcastically and stick her tongue out. Ren frowned lightly and chuckled.
"You got yourself a sense of humour over the night I see. Eden really does wonders." Skylar chuckled coldly.
"Really funny, R.J. I think I just died of laughter." Ren laughed sincerely and sat up, stretching and rubbing his cheek, removing the drool.
"What time is it?" Skylar leaned on the outer side of the window and threw away the grass she used to torture him.
"It will be one second too late if you don't get going. It is nearly midnight." Instantly, Ren jumped off the bed and scattered around the room, looking for his shirt and hoodie. Skylar chuckled and whistled teasingly.
"I do not think girls would mind seeing you like that you know?" Ren chuckled insecurely.
"Maybe. But I do not think Xavier would be too pleased if I screwed up the scouting mission." Even though he was indifferent of Skylar's opinion, he still couldn't help but feel slightly embarrassed about the lack of clothes on his body. Finding what he was looking for, he hurried and jumped out of the window.
"Aren't you forgetting something?" Ren stopped and turned back around.
"Forgetting what?" Skylar pointed down and Ren instantly flinched back into the house.
"Pants!"
"That could have get ugly." Skylar nodded.
"Yes yes, let's go!" Ren shouted once he jumped out, fixing his pants along the way. Skylar thought about asking him, what are the doors for, but she dropped it figuring he already got one critic too many for tonight. Once they were half the way there, Ren stopped and shook slightly. He looked at his friend and grinned widely as he always tended to.
"I think it is time for party." Turning his head towards the sky, he howled loudly, first as a human, insecurely and weak, then gradually louder and clearer as his body started to change into a dark and strong beast. He listened to other wolves, howling each for their own reason. But he was happy. Happy and impatient to run free around the grounds. Even in his dark and somewhat intimidating wolf form, his gentle smirk was visible. He darted his percing yellow eyes towards Skylar impatiently. She gazed back with her bloody red eyes and nodded her sandy and greyish coloured wolf head.
Ren barked lightly and poked her with his big paw, silently telling her that she is 'IT', before he jumped up and ran forward with already made pact of ten seconds of advantage. Skylar was just way too fast. She waited, patiently counting. It wasn't her favourite way to train or get to places, but it didn't hurt and it made him happy. On ten, she swiftly got up and ran full speed forward. She wasn't getting easy on him. Passing through the group of wolves gathered on the grounds, he caused a mess, breaking violently, happy that he finally won. That is, until he saw Skylar sitting there in front of him, tilting her head. He let out unsatisfied groan and lowered his ears in defeat that he didn't truly mind.
