Leader of the Pack

 





Dr. Graff placed his hands...

"Hey George, I didn't know-"

George pivoted with a smile.

"That you would be here."

"Of course, why wouldn't I?"

Jason shrugged, "Dunno, just thought.."

"Thought what? Because of the..."

"Yeah." Jason nodded. "That's why."

"Well, that's behind me now."

"Can it truly ever be?"

George nodded at his friend.

Reluctantly, Jason accepted George's word.

The conference went as planned.

Later that night they met --

Jason came to George's room.

"George, I'm not over it."

"I know, Jason, I know."

"Will you join with me?"

"How can I resist you?"

"Don't, please, just don't resist."

George closed his eyes, waiting.

Jason slid up to George.

Their mouths met, tongues entwined.

George felt the change begin.

He shuddered but didn't fight.

It had been so long.

Too long, some would say.

But he hadn't asked them.

Now he enjoyed the freedom.

Jason slid effortlessly into lupine.

"Come run with the pack."

"I shouldn't, Jason, you go."

"I want you with me."

"You are their leader, now."

"And you used to be."

"Used to be, Jason, past."

"I want you with me."

Jason growled when George refused.

George was older, more mature.

However, he knew that sound.

Jason would not accept no.

"I will run with you."

"And the pack too, George."

"And the pack too, Jason."

Jason howled the good news.

George followed in a lope.

Running three-legged would require practice.

Jason grinned wolfishly, running ahead.

This must have been a hard rule, using only five words per sentence! It was fun to read, knowing the play around it :D

actually the five words wasn't all that hard as it was just about all dialogue. Keeping track of who said what with hardly any indicators was more difficult.
