Werewolf boy

 

“Tom!” Shouted Martha.
“Yeah, Mom?” Said Tom as walking into the kitchen.
“Your dad and I are going out tonight, so we will need to find you a babysitter. Is Susie okay?”
“Yes! Susie is my favorite!” Shouted Tom as he was walking away from the kitchen back to his room to get ready for school.
Later that day when Tom was at school, he overheard that people were talking about that there was going to be a full moon tonight. He swallowed and took a deep breath as he thought about what he was going to do about it. All of the sudden he started hearing everything at once and got really dizzy.
“Are you okay?” Said a teacher
“yeah i’m fin-” Tom said as he passed out. Later that day he woke up in the nurse's room at school. “what happened?” Tom asked with confusion as he was waking up.
“You passed out, but we can’t figure out why…” Said the nurse
“Well i’m fine, I just wasn't feeling well.” Said tom in a worried tone.
“Are you sure?” Questioned the nurse.
“Yes, can I go back to class now?” Said Tom.
“No, we are going to send you home Tom.” Said the nurse.
“I am fine, I really don’t need to go home.” Tom said firmly as his mom walked in the nurse's room.
“Honey! are you okay?” Shouted Martha as she ran into the room to hug tom.
“Yes, I am fine, I was just feeling dizzy earlier i’m okay.” Tom said as he walked to the car with his mom.
When Tom got home he went up to his room and took a nap. When he woke up, he went down to the kitchen to talk to his mom.
“Hi mom, I was thinking that I don’t need a babysitter, i’m 12, I can be home by myself tonight.” Said tom.
“No, we're definitely going to have Susie watch you tonight after what happened at school.”
“Okay fine. But I really don’t need her here, i’m just going to watch tv, it would be a waste of money.”
“It is just incase.” Said Martha. 
Tom marched back up to his room and threw himself onto his bed. He had so many thoughts going on in his head. How can I turn into a werewolf tonight without susie knowing? What if my mom finds out? Everyone will be afraid of me. What will susie do? I should never have wanted this, why did I go out into the woods that night? This would have never happened if i didn’t get bit by a werewolf. Should I just tell Susie and my mom?... STOP.  He thought to himself as he lay there with his heart racing. “Honey! Susie is here!” Shouted Martha.
“Okay!” Said Tom as he went running down the stairs.
“Bye Tom, bye Susie! Have fun tonight, okay?” Said Martha
“Okay, bye Mom” Said Tom.
“Hi Tom! How are you doing?” Asked Susie
“Hi, i’m good, and you?” questioned Tom.
“I’m good, what do you want to do tonight? maybe we can go somewhere for dinner?” Susie said
“No!” Tom said firmly. “I would rather just stay here tonight and order pizza.” Tom said trying to keep calm.
“O-okay, whatever you want.” Said Susie in a confused tone.
Tom and Susie both walked to the kitchen to talk about what they were going to do.
“I’m actually not feeling great, I should probably just get some rest after dinner.” Tom said.
“Okay, that’s fi-.” Susie said as the doorbell interrupted her. As Susie gave the pizza man money, tom was sitting and waiting in the kitchen for her.
“One pepperoni pizza?” Said the pizza man.
“No, I asked for cheese.” Tom said in a grumpy tone as he walked to the front door.
“Oh, right, sorry Let me go get you a cheese, I have it in the car, I’ll be right back.” Said the pizza man
“K. Wow that person really needs to know what they're doing.” Said Tom to Susie
“I guess, but it's okay Tom it was just a mistake.” Said Susie as the pizza man walked back up to the door.
“Here you go, sorry about the confusion, have a good night.” Said the pizza man.
“Thank you!” Shouted Susie.
“Finally, i’m starving said tom as he pulled a slice of pizza apart and bit into it.
“Are you okay tom?” Questioned susie “You have been acting differently.”
“i’m fine, what do u mean different? Haha I was just hungry. Tom Said.
“Oh okay” Said susie as Tom got up from the table.
“I am going to go relax now.” Said Tom.
“Okay I will be down here if you need anything.” Said Susie. Tom ran up to his room. As soon as he got there he waited five minutes. After 5 minutes passed he snuck out of his window and ran to the woods. It was almost dark and he was starting to change into werewolf. First he started growing hair on his face and arms, Then he grew claws out of his fingernails, next he fell to the ground in pain just waiting to change already. Meanwhile susie went up to check on Tom. “Tom? How are you do… oh. my. gosh.” Susie said in shock as she saw tom’s room empty. What should I do? Tom ran away, I need to go look for him! Thought Susie. She ran down the stairs and out the front door as fast as she could. “Tom! Tom?” Yelled Susie. Tom was running around the woods looking for something to eat. Susie walked into the woods looking for him. “Tom?” Yelled Susie. He thought he heard something so he ran towards it. Tom saw someone, but didn't know it was susie, so he ran up and attacked her! I the middle of attacking her he turned back to a human. “Tom?” Said susie in a scared tone.
“Yes, this is me...” Said Tom
“How, what? How is this possible?” Said susie
“I am a werewolf because I got bit by one.” Said Tom
“That just doesn't make sense Tom. this must be a dream.” Susie said as she pinched herself.
“No it’s not a dream, this is real.” Said Tom.
“Well I just need to accept you for who you are.” Said Susie.
“Yeah, I'm just a normal kid... who turns into a werewolf.” Tom stated.
“Well I will be here for you, just let me know what you need.” Said Susie
“Okay thank you so much Susie, you are the best!” Said Tom as they started heading back to the house. When they got back to the house they went to the kitchen and finished up the pizza. Then Tom’s mom got back.
“Hi guys! How was it?” Said Martha
“Good haha it was good.” Said Tom.
“Yeah, Tom’s really someone special. Well bye guys!” Said susie as she headed out the door. Tom was really tired so he headed back to his room and said goodnight to his mom. The next morning he woke up and felt really good about himself because he thought that Susie would be afraid of him. Then he realized that if you really care about someone then they will be there for you no matter what, tom was glad that he learned that lesson.
