Jeremiah sat up in his bed and put his head in his hands. More nightmares. He shook out his dirty blonde hair and leaned against the head of his bed. He closed his eyes and sighed. He got out of bed, got dressed and decided he would see his good old town, London.
Jeremiah threw on his leather jacket and stuck his hands in the pockets, looking down. He lives 500 miles from where his parents are, but who knows? They could show up. He ran his hand through his hair and walked into the nearest pub. He sat in his usual seat. "The original, Johnny

Evelynn noticed the guy flounce into the chair next to her in the pub. And then the smell hit her. The wonderful smell of a male werewolf. Here? Next to me? No way. She tucked a black curl that escaped behind her ear. He ordered "the usual" whatever that was. So he frequents here often?
"Hey Johnnie, ill have another jack and coke please," she said smiling sweetly. Turning her green eyes to the stranger, she said, "Hi"

Jeremiah took a sip of his drink and set it down, letting out a "ahhh." He thought he heard someone talking. Than he smelt her...a werewolf...a female werewolf. He turned in his chair and smiled at her. "Well, hello gorgeous."

Gorgeous? Ha. she snickered to herself. She took him all in with a quick glance, then looked back into the bartenders face. "Thank you Love" she said to Johnnie as he handed her the dark liquid. She gulped down some of it and facing this strangely attractive man repeated his "AHhhhh" sound. Evelynn growled to herself.
Why do you have to be so hateful? or was it hateful? were you just blatantly flirting with him? What in the world? She questioned herself. Evelynn did not flirt with random men. But this isn't just some man, was it? No, Evie, he is of your kind she thought to herself.
After a long pause, she turned to him and said "I'm Evelynn." and then she waited.

Jeremiah drank the rest of his drink and ordered another one. "Oh and one for this lovely lady." He grinned at Evelynn. "Evelynn, is it?" He moved his chair closer to her. "I'm Jeremiah. It's great to meet you." He lifted up her hand and kissed it softly. He didn't know why he was acting like this but there was just something about this girl that brought out his old side, his exotic side, his side he had around his late sister.

Evelynn wasn't exactly sure she liked this male cozying up to her like this. Though, she wasn't sure she didn't like it either. It had been a really long time since she was near another male. Since she left James and the others of her pack back in the states. James. She tensed at that thought. She loved and respected him, but hated and resented him at the same time. Thinking of them put her back into the foul mood she started with. Hence the drinking.
She couldn't trust this male. Jeremiah was it? well just because he had a name didn't make him any less dangerous. Maybe he is a pack leader here to throw me out of his "territory". Yeah, well i have news for you buddy, if thats true, I am not going anywhere. I rather like it here.
Eve knew she wasn't being fair to this Jeremiah guy. Maybe she should play nice until she figured out who and what he was about.
"Nice to meet someone like me too" she winked at him, acknowledging her hidden meaning. She looked at his lips and remembered how soft they felt on her hands. She felt a blush darken her cheeks, in spite of herself.

Jeremiah looked at Evelynn. He could tell something was wrong with her but he wasn't going to ask anything. He began to realize he pushed it too far. He moved his chair back and coughed softly, sipping off his drink. He grinned when she said another like her. "Ya, you don't see many of us around here. Its a pleasure when you do." He winked back at her and smiled.

Evelynn watched as he leaned away from her. Wait, don't lean away she almost said out loud. What was with her today? She shook her head slightly to clear her jumbled thoughts. She lifted the drink he bought her and took a few sips. She let the fiery liquid go down into her belly and warm her to the toes before she turned back to him.
"No. I haven't seen many of us since I left the states. You're the first, actually, to...um.. be honest. I, umm. " she cleared her throat a little bit. "I'm not here to cause any harm. I don't want to intrude. Just so, You know, so you can tell whoever. I'm sorry. I'm rambling."
What. An. Idiot.

Jeremiah could tell she was struggling. He bit his lip, thinking of what he should do for her. She needs something. "Your no bother at all." He gave her a sympathetic look. "Hey. Would you liked to go do something? Dancing, eating, anything. It will be my pleasure." He smiled sweetly at her. He needs to see a true smile on her face.

Evelynn was floored when this male... stop referring to him as this male. His name is Jeremiah. when this Jeremiah asked her to go somewhere else. Was this a trick? No. It didn't feel like it. It surely didn't feel like an ambush. So this was genuine? HUH....ok.
Eve turned her bright green eyes to him and flashed a smile. How had he gotten her out of her slump? Made her forget about everything she was searching for? She most certainly had gotten out of her bad mood.
but wait....dancing? had she ever danced before? No, your a big clutz eve...remember?
"I'd love to Jeremiah. But im not sure about dancing though. Two left feet Ive got lamb. But dinner sounds wonderful." She breathed to him.

Jeremiah smiled back at her. She had such a beautiful smile and the most gorgeous eyes he had ever seen. He began to see her lighten up and smile more. It made him feel good. With years of guilt on his chest, this would make up for some. "I know a nice little resturant just a few blocks from here. Would you like to go there with me, Evelynn." He smiled, stood up, and offered his hand.

She looked up into his eyes. There was a softness to them that spoke to her heart. they were two deep pools of emotion. yet, they were a little bit guarded as well. Oh, how she wanted to know the mysteries behind those eyes, the man behind those eyes. She noticed that he always pushed his hands through those beautiful sandy blond locks of his. Out of exasperation? She would have to investigate. He held his hand out to her to help her stand.
Well, chivalry isn't dead in this one..... It was kind of a nice break from her hell.
As she started to slide out of the chair, her foot caught on the seat and she slightly stumbled into his arms. She felt her whole body flush from the sudden invasive bodily contact. She almost swooned with a heady rush.
SWOON??? Who swoons anymore these days?
Evelynn tilted her head back and let out a lilting laughter come rolling out from the depths of her belly.
"Excuse my clumsiness. I would love to go with you Jeremiah" she said still laughing only slightly softer now.

Jeremiah smiled as she stared into his eyes. He wished he could tell her everything that happened but than what would she think of him? Probably a monster all he had to do was just walk away. But no, he had to be the hero. He woke out of thought when Evelynn fell into his arms. He smiled sweetly down at her. "Don't worry, Eve. I'll catch you each time." He helped her up but still held on to her hand. It was warm, he loved it. He opened that door for her and stepped out of the pub with his hand still in hers.

He had the absolute cutest smile. Was this guy actually dazzling her? She let him hold her hand. His hands felt like paws covering her small hands. And man was he tall. She wanted to know a few things about him.
"SO...Jeremiah. Are you originally from here? Or did you move away from everyone you know when, well. you know, when this happened to you too?" she asked him looking up at him as they walked.

Jeremiah held her hand as they walked down the street. He loved being able to talk to someone like this, without worrying about his 'secret' coming out. "I was born in London but farther away. I moved away from my family but I couldn't leave the country. Its like something is holding me here.
