Werewolf Committee

Sitting in the black leather sofas, I tapped my foot onto the floor impatiently waiting for Tate and the others to come back.

Colin sat beside me staring at the blank television and it was driving me crazy.

"Are you going to just sit there?" I asked glaring at him while crossing my arms over my chest.

"Do you have any other ideas?" He asked glancing at me and back at the blank screen.

"Actually," I said slapping my hands to my knees before standing up, "-I do. Lets go see whats going on."

"No," he said bluntly not sparing me another glance.

"I wasn't asking for permission. You sit here and I'll be right back," I said walking towards the door, only to be stopped by Colin who appeared in front of me.

"What part of, its dangerous don't you understand?" He hissed in anger blocking my way from the door.

"Move," I hissed back equally angry.

"No."

"Why don't you just sit down and drink? That's what your good at! Just let me leave," I yelled in anger pushing him away from me.

Colin froze and his eyes widened.

"Colin?" I asked awkwardly as he stood there rigid.

With his head hung down, he breathed in a deep shaky breath.

"That's what my wife said to me. Right before she died," he said in a low whisper.

Now I froze. I mentally stabbed myself at my stupidity. Surely there was a reason for his drinking. This was it.

"She didn't listen to me. She stepped out of the door and was killed," he said slowly still not looking at me as his eyes were unfocused. Lost. As if he were recalling a long lost memory.

Before I can say anything or apologies, his head suddenly snapped to mine and his eyes narrowed.

"So go ahead. Leave. See were it gets you," he hissed at me and disappeared.

I stared at where he stood and felt my eyes water up. How could I have been so rude?
