Human again

Dr. Green smiled moving away from the door. He hadn’t mean to eavesdrop, he just happened to walk past and heard their voices. He hurried to his kitchen, brewing some coffee. For them. Barely able to contain his smile.
“We’re leaving, Dr.Green..” Dixon announced from the door. Dr. Green turned to them, standing by the door of the kitchen. He looked down at their intertwined fingers.
“So soon, stay for some...”

“We’ve a lot of things to do. Thank you for everything.”
“I think I’ve to keep saying that, you didn’t have to thank me, I’m glad I could help..”
“Well you guys have to catchup, I can’t stop you anyway, make sure to call anytime you need my help. I’ll be right there.”
“Definitely.”

“I should see you guys to the door.”
He walked behind, engaging in little talks here and there. He wanted to walk them to the door but ended up walking them to where the car was parked.
He did feel the sudden peace, he’d been lacking for the past days. Obviously she did had an effect on him. Her hand felt so small, in his. Each time, stealing a glance her way.
“Be careful.”Dr. Green gripped Dixon’s shoulders, giving it a little squeeze.
Dixon nodded in reply, opening the car door so she could get in. She stood staring at Dixon and the car.
“Get in?”

“Why?” She asked.
“So I could take you home.”
“How?”
“Just get in. I took you in it the other time.”
“When?”
“That time you were....Right..you passed out. Get in and seat. And see how it works”
Dr. Green urged her to get in.
She get in.
Dixon turned to Dr. Green.
“I’d to say this, be ready.”

He nodded and got into the car as well. He sat down, watching Maeve twitched uncomfortably on the seat.
“Your seatbelt?”
She raised a questioning brow at him. With a confused look. He scoot closer to her, his face few inches from her. Their body almost touching. Her heart raced in her chest. She thought it was gonna jump out. It beats so fast. And he lingers, with whatever he was doing. And his eyes went to her lips. He smiled and pulled away from her.
“All done.”

She suddenly felt so hot. Her cheeks turned crimson red. fanned herself with her hands. Looking out the window. Whatever she was feeling, was out of it, it wasn’t what she felt when she’s hungry or the feelings she get when she remembers something from her past, she’d told Dr. Green the dream she had, and he had told her it wasn’t a dream but her returning memories, something that happened at her past. The past she’d forgotten and never thought existed.
These feelings she was getting anything she was too close to Dixon, she still hadn’t been able to understand why she feels this way. The tingling feelings in her stomach.
Dixon smiled and ignite the car. Driving away.
Dr. Green waved till they were out of sight.

“There’s a place we can get to eat some crispy chicken. Love chicken don’t you? It will take a while till we get there. It’s out of town, but I’ll have to take you somewhere else....” he flashed a smile her way.
“You’ve to get change..”
“No.”
“What? You wanna go there in just a T-shirt.”
“What’s wrong with that.”
“Everything!”

“I don’t see anything wrong with it, Let’s just go home.”
“How about we get your hairs done? It’s too long, we could get to cut a little from it.”
“I want to go home.” She pouted.

“You want to go home than staying with me?”
“You’ll be home with me anyway.” She shrugged.
“Do you’ve to ruin every moment.” She rolled her eyes.
“Do I?”

He sighed, having a U-turn. He was taking her to a salon, something has to be done with her hair. So she could look less weird if he takes her out to eat with him, at least too much eyes wouldn’t be one then.
He stopped the car in front of a salon and came out. He walked around to open her door. Helping her out of the seatbelt.
He held her hands so she could come down from the car.
“Where are we?”
“Salon”

“What’s that?”
“You’ll see.”
He lead her to the salon. She kept on glancing around the salon, he let her be, it’s definitely the first time she’s seeing this place. He held a brief discussion with a woman, she smiled sweetly at Maeve and took her away from Dixon. Dixon waved at her. She pouted her lips,going along with the stranger. Dixon chuckled. Watching her until she was out of sight.
He settled down on a seat.

Waiting for her. Scrolling down his phone for any update. The first thing he saw was a picture of Maeve. A half of her face was captured, her hair was covering them making her face not seen.
Under it was written.
A ravaging Beast

There were different names on social media. He suddenly wished there was something he could do, but it’s absolutely nothing he could do to help. To change her completely from being a demon. He tucked the phone back into his pocket. She should be out already. It’s almost an hour she’d been in there. He was missing her already.
He stood up when he saw her coming out with the woman from earlier. Her hair was straightened, and tied in a ponytail. Stoping in the small of her back.
Her face finally exposed. The unravel red brown hair was gone. She was so pretty, that he couldn’t stop staring at her, she smiled when she got closer to him. Her smile, her face, everything about her was perfect.
He smiled.

Every time he sees her smiling, he smiled too. That smile he wanted it to stay forever. And at this moment, was a memory he doesn’t want to forget. Right now. He was ready to give everything to see the girl in front of him, in his T-shirt smile. Every damn time.
Ready to help the her be human again.
