~Mylo~

Okay, today's the day.. It has been one day since I met up with August, I feel refreshed. It's like I can defeat a hundred, no a thousand Southies!! I jumped excitedly over towards Eve, and said," Eve, can I join in battles? I feel fine!" She looked over at me, with an unimpressed look, before her eyes widened in shock as her hand touched my forehead. "Your fever is gone," She stated, in disbelief. I've been getting sick more often, ever since August unlocked my primal trait to search and mate. It made sense, but to think a mef'wa could simply want to mate with someone, just because of a silly, little kiss... A blush passed over my features as I shook my head and said," Yeah. I'm fine, so I can be let back in the battles now, right?" Eve said," ...I don't know. I think your checks flushed again, maybe the fever is still there." I begged," Please, Eve. I don't want to hold any of us back.." Eve sighed and said, sternly," I know, Mylo. But I can't have you passing out in the middle of battle, it was already bad enough that you always fell asleep after we finished a battle, or right after the battle, when we got to the guild; now you..you're getting weaker, Mylo. What happens if you use too much energy and August isn't around? What happens if you're dying and I can't do anything? Willow can't heal you, right now!" I frowned as I remembered when Willow tried to heal me, I had gotten a terrible fever, since I didn't visit with August on Friday, as we said that we'd met up next Friday, which was yesterday. I knew that waiting would impact my health, but it's not like I wanted to have.. to mate with a stranger. I, at least, wanted to know the guy...

August was talking to me, it had been a month since we first started talking. I learned a lot about August during that time, we usually talked about non-serious subjects, mainly stuff that we liked, and things that we didn't like. Like how August didn't really like going out to crowded areas, as he couldn't really maneuver as easily around them. I was definitely a professional at maneuvering though a crowd though, so much so, that August sort of lost me a couple of times when we went out to another place for a change of scenery. Right now, we're in a park. He said," It's been about a month now, and today we are going to talk about our cultural differences, now I've been reading up on yours. It said' that mef'was usually mate during he first week.' Are you having any side effects? Anything I should worry about?" I hated having to lie, but I did anyway in that moment," I shook my head, and said," No, I'm okay..." It hurts, I feel it every time, he kisses someone else, but he can't know, it'd probably be better if we hadn't kissed.. If he hadn't kissed me then none of this would be happening. I wouldn't be trying to get to know someone, who would probably leave me for someone better. I hide my doubt with a fake smile. Outwardly, I knew I looked fine. I was able to hide a lot of pain, easily. That's what I did, a lot, when I was younger. I hated that orphanage, so many bullies..I was so weak, back then. I snapped out of my bad train of thinking, as I felt a hand on my cheek. August? He's actually touching me, without me having to ask..or hint at it. I blushed slightly. August said," Stop thinking whatever you're thinking.. You're turning pale. Are you sure, you don't need to tell me something?" I nodded and said," Yeah, sorry. Guess my mind sort of drifted into la la land. Any way, what were we talking about?" August sighed, with a light smile and said," Cultures. Remember? Unless you don't want to talk about that.. We could probably save it for later.." I said," Oh, no. We don't need to change it, I already know a lot about werewolf culture, so.. I guess my own culture is really just a mystery to even me. My caretakers had to get a giant guide book in order to know everything about raising a healthy mef'wa.. I think it went like,' From childen care to teen rebellions: Mef'wa parenting guide..' or something like that." I shrugged, as he looked at me with interest," Who are your parents anyway?" I shrugged," I wasn't raise by my parents..I guess since we already worn out the culture talk, why don't we talk about parents, you first." He chuckled, finding my way of changing the subject funny, and said," Well, as you already know I know my biological parents. They were rather chill parents, and we went out of the castle to play tag in the park or something like that. One day, my mother got very ill, suddenly, and father had hired a nana to take care of me. Father never really paid much attention to me during this time, he was worried, and then he was mourning her. I never saw my mother before she passed, and I can remember very little about her. All I know is that she had a dolphin necklace on her neck that she always wore. The nana took care of me, most times, and then I got an educator not long after." I said," Did you have any friends? Wouldn't it get lonely in that big giant place?" August frowned and said," I had a few friends, but they ended up betraying me...It was lonely in my house, sometimes it still is, but I've gotten used to it." I frowned, at least when I was a kid, there was someone my age I could play with, he didn't have any, not anyone he could trust later on in life anyway.. How sad, I sympathized with him.
