Lovely

It took me nearly every second I had available to get ready and figure out what I should wear. It was difficult to decide between a full-blown suit, and a pair of dress slacks with a button-down shirt. Plus, I never paid much attention to what I wore before, I didn’t have to, women flocked to me either way.

As I was walking out the door, I flew back into my room and changed into the latter while grumbling at my ridiculous antics. The more time I spent with her the more human I felt; not counting my outburst of anger earlier of course.

On the drive to pick up Autumn I did everything I could to gain control of myself. I refused to allow my temper to get the better of me, and to achieve that I came to only one conclusion; I needed to restrain my feelings for her. By nature I was selfish and territorial, but I had to transform that. The truth of the matter was that I had to be honest with myself. I wanted her, I needed her, and I cared for her more deeply every day than I sought to admit sometimes. But, I cared more for her safety and her happiness. Both of which could not exist if I was near. At the first sign of trouble, I would have to leave and allow fate to bring the good fortune that was destined to be hers. Until then, I would watch over her and be her companion.

Fighting the urge to run my fingers through my hair, I gripped the steering wheel tightly. Sure, I had my resolve to be Autumn’s…well, I would be whatever she wanted me to be, but I was still feeling the butterflies fluttering in my stomach. What was I thinking? Butterflies didn’t belong anywhere near me, perhaps a more accurate word would be bats. Yes! I had wild, crazy bats flapping around in my gut. I’d never felt anything like it. Those ridiculous bats carried with them one thought, one idea that held with it the answer I had been most searching for. The answer to my existence; the cure to my curse of eternity.

Autumn.

Had I not been driving I would have fallen to my knees at the sight of her. She was waiting for me at the front steps of Shady Willows, looking like a snow angel. I pulled to a sudden stop in front of her, the tires still slightly sliding as I jumped out of the SUV to open the door for her.

“You look lovely!” I spoke to her through the swirling wind and flaking snowfall. She was bundled up in a snowy, white jacket, a crimson red scarf wrapped around her neck in the most attractive and dangerously seductive way. Had she known what I was, she probably would have chosen a different color. Of course, I wouldn’t complain, it was my favorite color after all.

“Thanks. So do you...look handsome I mean. Not lovely,” she said, taking my hand.
