Ours novel Chapter 10

Nala POV

I woke up early a bit too early, finding that I can't fall back to sleep I decided to get up and get ready for the day. I took a hot shower as payback to all the cold showers I used to take in my crappy apartment. I brushed my teeth, hair, and went on the hunt for my clothes.

I couldn't find any of MY clothes all I can find are the new stuff Kyle bought me.

Putting on some baby blue lacey panties and bra, they fit me perfectly which made me blush a deep red. He got my size spot on, I didn’t supply him with any of my measurements.

Looking at myself in the mirror my ribs are a bit too prominent, my breast looks like a twelve-year-old. I'm too skinny, too many missed meals, and many others I couldn’t afford. Shaking my head I put on a pink sweater dress with knee-high socks and converse, I looked okay, I loved this style although Kyle had too much stuff for me most of them looked to be more on the girlie side.

I wasn't as good as Kyle at doing hair so I just throw it up in my famous messy bun, a bit too messy but good enough for me.

Stepping outside I'm met with silence. Maybe they are still asleep, but they did say there is a backyard. I decide to go and discover, if I’m going to stay here then I want to know my surroundings. I walk down the stairs keeping quiet not to disturb anyone, I skip through the kitchen and out to the backyard.

It’s a standard backyard, green grass, some bed flowers, the whole thing is surrounded by a forest with big trees. We weren’t in the city anymore, this feels like I moved miles and miles away. I knew our town got a forest part but I never had the privilege of going there.

I hear something shuffling between the trees, I try to look and I see a dog!

His coat is black and shiny, he's standing tall and proud with his head held up high, his eyes are dark black with some silver specks in them.

"Beautiful" it just slips my lips and he looks over at me.

Our eyes lock and I feel a strange pull toward him. I feel like I just got home.
