Katherine awoke on this Saturday morning with her head pounding. She shook her head as she pulled her pillow close around her ears. So many thoughts were running through her mind, but none of these thoughts were hers. The thoughts were those of the girls in her dorm. They were all thinking about different things.
Some of the girls were thinking about boys, some about their upcoming test that they didn't want to fail, and otthers were thinking about their families thay they missed. It all drove Katherine crazy. She didn't want to hear their thoughts. She wanted to only hear the thoughts that were in her head. When she heard the thoughts of everyone else she couldn't understand what she was thinking. There was only one place where she could get away.
Suddenly Katherine flew out of bed and got ready in a hurry. She quickly brushed through her hair and pulled it into a bun then left the Ravenclaw Common Room. Katherine walked to the Library as quickly as she could and made her way to the Upper level. She walked to the back of the upper level and basically fell into a soft armchair that was for reading. There was no one in sight.

Ryan had slept in the library, after doing a little extra studying of how werewolves had come to be.He even had fallen asleep with the book open on his face.He woke when he smelled a heavenly smell, though even all the books and other smells that fumed in the library.He pulled the book off his face and put it away.It had not helped him much in his pursuit so he didn't feel a real need as to finish reading it.
He walked over to the girl and looked at her as he passed.He didn't want to disturb her, but he wanted to see who was the owner of the amazing smell, that over powered all other smells.He walked over to her and stood by the bookcase.He realized he had seen her in Ted's lesson, and even that he had gotten a wif of her scent, though he didn't realize as he was always in the frame of mind that was called for in class.
"You know I may not have the ability to know whats going on, or all that.I can tell however when someone is frustrated.I saw that exact look in Sargent smiths eyes all the time.He would used to go for walks when this happened.It helps clear your head.You know this place will be filling up with students soon.Do you want to join me for a walk in the forest,Or do you trust me given that you know what I am, after Ted's lesson?

Katherine brought her hands to her head as she basked in the silence. She could hear her thoughts and hers alone. It was wonderful. Well, it was until she could hear someone else's thoughts in her head again. At least this time it was only one person instead of a whole lot of people.
"Well I think you would be frustrated as well if you had other people's thoughts in your head," Katherine said, not even looking toward the person who spoke.
When Katherine heard him ask her to go for a walk with him she took her hands odd of her face and looked right at him. She never went on walks with anyone. Did she dare go when she could be using the time to study? After all, he was a werewolf. Then again, Professor Lupin did teach the class just a day ago not to be afraid of werewolves.
"Um...a walk?" Katherine asked as she tried to read his thoughts. She wanted to know if he was goign to be expecting something from her. Once she decided that there wasn't she nodded to him. "Um sure. I will go on a walk with you..."
Katherine's words faded out as she heard voices coming up the stairs of the Upper level. She didn't want to really be near more than one person. Katherine stood up and looked at the boy, Ryan.
"Well, let's get going," she said as she started to walk off.

Ryan started to walk as she did catching up to her rather quickly.'You can read my thoughts huh?'He thought in his head as a small smile appeared on his face."You heard that didn't you.I suppose then that you know what I'm thinking now."He was in fact thinking of holding her hand, or more or less he had the desire to see how it felt."If you can I want you to know, I mean nothing by it.There is something that Ted didn't tell you.I think was because it wasn't really relevant.Though by my thoughts you might also be able to tell, that is if you know about actual wolves."
He sighed, for once in his life he didn't feel like himself.He felt as his heart would come out of his chest if she were to touch him.He liked her he could smell her, and it filled his head with only that scent.He had never in his life smelled, or even come close to smelling something as heavenly.He then again had never had a girl friend, or any girl he liked either.He looked at her and just let his thoughts fall on her, and how beautiful she was.He caught though that he was doing this and looked away.He tried not to breath, as he cleared his head of all thought."Sorry I won't think around you.If thats what you want."

Katherine could hear his thoughts loud and clear in her head. When he asked her if she heard what he just thought she simply nodded. She didn't know what else to say. What he was thinking was making her a bit uncomfortable, but she wasn't about to show it. Katherine didn't like to show her emotions. Besides, she had neer had a guy think those things about her. It was nice.
"I'm sure that I would be able to tell," Katherine said as she looked over at Ryan. He was a very attractive boy, just not her type. Right? Oh Katherine didn't know anymore. Her mind was spinning in the things that he was thinking.
"No, it's fine if you want to think," she said as she looked down at the ground as she walked, slowing her pace. "It's fine as long as I only have one person's thoughts in my head."
Katherine blushed as she heard his thoughts about how he thougth her sent was heavenly. He could smell her? Of course he could smell her. Werewolves had a very good sense of smell. When Katherine heard that he thougth she was beautiful she wanted to stop dead in her tracks, but she kept walking.

Ryan looked at her once more.He thought of holding her, and kissing her.He quickly turned his head and began to think of drill and ceremony routines."Sorry, I didn't mean to think that.I just want...I mean I don't feel like myself for once in my life and I hated it.If I could choose an ability to have I would have control like Ted."
"He can even control the instincts of the wolf."He realized as he had spoken he had stopped running over the routines, and started to think of her again well in a more general sense though.'You probably get allot of guys wanting to be with you,and I'm just another one.'He sighed and balled his fist, he so wanted to punch it through the wall.
He stopped and turned back to her.He touched her arm to make her stop as well, then offered her his hand."sorry, I can't walk this slow." He began to think once again of hold her, but caught it really quickly."Sorry.I don't want to make you feel uncomfortable or anything like that.I feel that I should tell you, so your not in the dark.I also want you to know cause, I want you to know I will not treat you like other guys, or anything like that.I don't even know what I am really saying besides this."
"As a wolf I mate for for life, unless that mate doesn't love me or dies.I am choosing you as my mate.I don't know why, I just am.The funny thing about all this is it feels like a full moon to me.I want to react,I usually never think this much as to what to do.So unless you want me to do what I am thinking, take my hand."His eyes flicked with the wolfs as he looked at her with a hard stare."Don't worry I will not hurt you,nor will I let anything happen to you."He could still feel himself and see himself touching her and kissing her.He closed his eyes to clear his mind, as he waited to see if she would take his hand or not.

Once agani she heard his thoughts loud and clear in her head. This time he wanted to hold her and hiss her. Katherine had never heard a boy think those things about her before. She was used to them thinking bad thoughts about her; about how she was not pretty enough for them, not skinny enough, and not easy enough.
"Actually, I don't ever get guys thinking about me like you do," Katherine said as she looked at him. "Usually they always think bad things about me when I pass them in the halls or whatever. That's usually why I am in the Library, not many guys go in there."
When she felt his hand on her arm she come to a complete stop. She looked at him as he spoke and reached out his hand toward her. What was she supposed to do? Was she supposed to take his hand? What would that mean? He wouldn't treat her like other guys? What was he talking about?
The words he next said echoed in her mind. He wanted her for his life long mate? Katherine had never even had a boyfriend before. She was always too busy with her studdies. She never really cared for boys anyway. Something, though, was telling her that Ryan was different.
"You want me as your mate?" Katherine asked as she looked at Ryan. "I don't know. I mean I have never even dated a guy before. I don't know. Why would you want me? There are so many other girls that you could choose from. Why me? Why little me who always has her face stuck in a book studdying?"
Katherine watched as Ryan closed his eyes. He was trying to clear his mind. There was just one thing in his mind that stuck out to her. 'Will she take my hand?' What was Katherine to do? Was she to take his hand and never look back? Was she goign to regret this? If she took his hand she would be hanging herself out on a line. Oh, what was she to do?
Her brother always told her she needed to take a few more risks in her life. Was this one of the risks that she needed to take? She could just think of her brother. He was tellign her to take Ryan's hand. He told her that it would be okay. Katherine bit her lip as she reached out and put her hand into Ryan's outstreached one.

Ryan opened his eyes as she placed her hand in his.Though as he did he thought of her once more.'How could someone not love you.'"your beautiful,and smell better then anything in the world.Theres nothing wrong with someone with someone who likes to study.I like that,you have something to love in life.I like that about you."His thoughts once again went back to holding her, and kissing her.He quickly thought of them running.He nodded at her and thought 'Ready' He turned and in a way pulled her along.Though as he ran to the forest he felt a strange force in his hand.In his mind he could see it going to her.He was unsure of what it was.Though he figured it had something to with the making her go faster.
He realized he didn't have to really pull her, as she ran with him.He like this though, he loved having some to run faster with.As he reached the grounds, he felt the cold sharp wind pierce is face.It felt good though and fueled him with what he used in speed.As they finally made it to the forest, he stopped running.He let go of her hand and looked around the forest.The only sounds were that of the birds, and breeze.He turned to her and looked at her with more of a clear mind."Is this better for you?"It was better for him, he didn't know the reason though his mind just seemed more clear.

"I'm not that pretty," Katherine said as she shook her head and looked at Ryan.
When they started running she smiled. She loved the feel of the wind on her face. She glanced over at Ryan as they ran. He looked like this was the best thing in the world to him. She could tell that he loved moving at this fast of a speed.
When they reached the forest Katherine smiled and looked around. It was a beautiful spot and it was quiet. It was really quiet. It was the most quiet place that she had ever been. For once she didn't hear anything, nothing at all, in her head. She smiled more as she heard the birds chirping. It had been so long since she had heard the birds. They had always been drowned out by the thoughts of other people.
"It's wonderful," Katherine said as she looked at Ryan. "It is the quietest place I have ever been. I haven't heard the birds for such a long time. Thank you."

Ryan looked around the forest, his mind clear and set only to that.He could smell everything.He loved the way the smells of Katherine and the forests meshed so well together.He could feel his mind once again at ease.As he looked to her though, the words she had said came back into his mind.He sat down next to her and took her hand once more.
'Your welcome.By the way I never want to hear you say your that pretty.I have never seen anything more beautiful then you.I don't know who told you this.If I find out though, they will have to answer to me.'He smiled as he thought this, and let his eyes change to that of a wolf.He let them go back as he reached for her hair.He moved it gently, hoping he wasn't making her uncomfortable.
He was not used to this love thing, nor did he know romantic moves to swoon a girl.Growing his whole life around men and woman that were to old for him limited him of that experience.He also had never thought about it until now.His thoughts once again went to him kissing her, as he traced her face his fingers.'Sorry, I can't help my thinking around you.'"I really want to kiss you."He looked at her with almost sad eyes, then closed them to get his thoughts away form that.As well he turned around and let the forest over take his senses."So tell me something about yourself."He said as he continued to smell the air.

Katherine looked down at Ryan as he held her hand and though. No one had really told her that she wasn't pretty, she had just always thought that she wasn't. No guys ever wanted to be around her and that's what she figured the reason was. They didn't want to be around her becuase she wasn't pretty.
Katherine's eyes never left his when he moved her hair out of her face. She was a bit uncomfortable, but it was an okay uncomfortalbe. She felt relaxed when she was with Ryan and she really liked that feeling. It was nice not to have to worry about things for once. She could just be with him and relax.
Katherine didn't say anything to his comment about wanting to kiss her. She had never kissed a guy before so she didn't know when the right time to do that was. She was new to this whole boy thing. Never before had she done any of this. Was she going to be horrible if she kissed him? How would she know if she sucked?
"About myself?" Katherine asked as she shook her head. "Well, I grew up in Salem, Massachusetts where my brother and I went to the Salem Academy for Witches and Wizards. My parents decide to move to England when the school started to teach all us about the Salem Witch Trials that happened in 1692. My parents totally freaked out because they didn't want us learning about such things because they thought it might spark another Salem Witch Trials. You see my parents always told us that the past repeats itself. So we moved here. My brother and I are just hoping that our parents don't find out about the Battle Against Lord Voldermort or we will be leaving this place and moving again."
Katherine nodded as she finished speaking and smiled at Ryan. "So what's your story?" she asked.

Ryan laughed he was not surprised that they had things in common.He looked at her and laughed, for some reason unable to control himself."Man we already have something in common.I too am from the US.I was abandon at a Military base.I moved around allot, but then when I turned elven I started going here.I found out that I was actually born here, but I still don't know who my real parents are.I wonder what your parents would think if they knew about me.Or that there would be another war coming soon."He looked at her her and thought of the song Send me an angel.He could feel the wolf in a way he never did before.His eyes changed to that of a wolves, as he slowly held her hand tighter.He He could feel his emotions wanting to burst out, though he tried to hold it back.He couldn't,it was too hard.He closed his eyes and slowly leaned in close.As his lips touched hers his heart went wild.He felt more whole as he kissed her.His thoughts still on the song, as he back off slightly."Sorry I..."before he finished though he found himself kissing her again.His right hand still holding her hand tight, and his left moved to her hair.

"Yeah, we do have a few things in common," Katherine said as she smiled at Ryan. She hadn't expected for them to have anything in common at all, but since they did she couldn't be happier. That just brought them closer together. Katherine liked that.
When she heard Ryan asked her what her parents would think about him she bit her lip. She knew exactly what her parents would think about him. They would hate the fact that he was a werewolf. They would also probably forbid her to ever see him again.
"I think it's probably best that they don't know," Katherine said as she looked at him. "Not just yet. They can't know about another war that is coming either or Kale and I will be moved to Egypt."
Katherine smiled as she heard the song that he was thinking of. It was a beautiful song that she had never heard before. What happened next she hadn't expected at all. Soon he kissed her and pulled away. Katherine was about to say something to him as he apologized, but she didn't have time before he was kissing her yet again. Katherine felt as though the butterflies that had been softly fluttering around in her stomach had burst out.
She had never felt this way before. She had never been kissed like this before. It was all something new to her. She liked it. She really liked it. Katherine's left hand moved to Ryan's shoulder as she started to kiss him back. She couldn't get over the fact of how much she liked this feeling.

Ryan loved how she was kissing him back.He deepened the kiss, as his mind filled more and more with the instincts of the wolf.His hand left hers, and moved to her waist.All that existed in time was this moment, him and her.He moved in closer sticking his tongue in her mouth.He continued to kiss her passionately, never wanting to part form her.He could feel his mind fading in and out.He could feel that he had moved more closer to her, to were in a second he could have her pined on the ground.
He opened his eyes and looked at her and where his position was.He quickly let go of her and back away."Sorry."'I want you' He felt the wolf in his mind more so now as he thought these words.'ummm sorry I can't control my thoughts right now.A wolves mind is so much simpler then a humans.'He looked at her as he thought this, and could see himself acting out the passion he felt for her.
He looked away."I'm really sorry for my thoughts.Talk to me about something else."He stood up and looked into the forest.He breathed in the forest, though still able to smell her.He could feel himself wanting her more.He finally walk to a near by tree and rammed his fist into it.He took it out slowly and watched it heal.He felt better now, and hoped it would stay that way.Most of all though he hoped he didn't scare her.his mind went to her again.Thinking of her parents, and that they would never except him.He didn't know what to say or do.He just turned around and leaned against the tree, folded his arms, and looked at the ground.
After a bit though he spoke softly."It's the full moon tonight.You are suppose to come and listen to the howls am I right?I will talk to Teddy, but I suggest you don't come."This was all he could manage to get out.He breathed slowly trying to control his thoughts and the wolf he felt slowly going out of his mind.

Katherine's heart began to beat faster and faster. She had never felt these kinds of feelings ever before. In the back of her mind it kind of scared her, but it didn't stop her. She continued to kiss him, going deeper with the kiss when he did. When Ryan's hand moved to her waist she jumped ever so slightly, but it was not very noticeable.
When Ryan pulled back from her she just looked at him. She didn't know what to say. She just listened to him and the words in his head. So this is what happened when the wolf's mind tried to take control? Katherine didn't know what to think of it. She didn't know what to say either when Ryan asked her to talk about something else.
"Um..." she said as she watched him. "I really don't know what else to talk about. Is there anything you want to know?"
Katherine watched as Ryan walked around. She didn't know what he was going to do next, but when he did it she gasped, jumped, and looked away. Katherine knew he was alright, but the shock of it got to her. She wasn't used to the whole he can heal quidkly thing. Or maybe it was just a Katherine thing.
"Why is that?" Katherine asked. "I will do whatever you want me to, I am just curious as to why you think it best for me not to come."
