I still can't get over the fact that I could have died so long ago. It really dawns on you after all the things you have done after that moment. Can you imagine what your life would be like if that one moment in your life hadn't happened?  Everything wouldn't be the same.

It had been a whole week since I met Fluttershy, my first friend. She has been feeding me and helped fix most of my injuries. The only problem was that I did not know what to do when I did heal completely. I was not sure if she would kick me out or what? I had to pay her back in the best way I could.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------<>-----------------------------------------------------------------------

I stood in one of the few bathrooms of Fluttershy's house. I was looking at the mirror into my reflection. For the first few days of my stay here, I was never able to stand up or walk around the house. The curiosity of exploring the house was killing me. Fluttershy ,however, was persistent that I stayed on the couch and rested. It had been a day since she said that and now I was just getting annoyed. I tried to move around the house, but she was right about my body still healing. I still felt pain in some parts of my body and I quickly returned to the couch.

I tried every now and then to move and was rewarded with a slight pain or soreness. It was only after the eighth time that I decided to just face the pain since I had no other choice... plus I really had to pee. Now here I was starring at my reflection with an awed expression. I have not met any of my species in my time of this world, but to my standards.....I was HOT! My face did seem very wolfish as Fluttershy described, but I found myself noticing more details she did not tell me about. One of them was my eye color. They were more blue than the sky itself. I also noticed my fur was a light darkish grey and had a clean shininess to it.

I had taken off my shirt to examine my wounds, but when I pulled the fabric off, I found myself to be well built. I had muscles covering most of my body. I flexed my arms and saw how much muscles I had. I will say it was pretty impressive. I did not care how I got this body. I was just grateful I did not have any really bad faults.

I continued to flex, but that was until I heard the front door opening. My wolf ears were extra sensitive so I could hear Fluttershy humming in the living room two walls away. I quickly put my shirt on and walked to the living room. I walked into the living room and found fluttershy looking like she was close to panicking. I slowly made my way to her.

"Hey Fluttershy" I said slowly. Before I could say anything else she quickly turned around and had very annoyed look on her face. That was quick.

"WHAT ARE YOU DOING OUT OF BED!" she practically screamed. I winced and covered my ears in pain.

"I'm sorry, I had to pee" I cried back in fear. Exactly after I said that, Fluttershy calmed down and smiled with an embarrassed look on her face.

"Oh, Sorry" she squeaked. How the heck?! Her expression quickly turned serious again. "I understand, but you still shouldn't be out of bed." she warned. I sighed and rolled my eyes. I walked behind her and laid on the couch.

"Okay I'm sorry. However, first of all this is not a bed... it is a couch. Second of all,  I was getting bored and I needed to move around or I would die. Besides, I do feel better. My wounds don't hurt as much today." I reasoned. She hummed in response.

"Alright, well I just came by to grab a few things since I will be with my friends most of the day. I nodded. Fluttershy told me about some of her friends. I don't remember all of them, but I do know some of the major ones she talks about. One of the few she hangs out is called Rarity. I heard she was a seamstress. I thought it would be nice to meet her. Another one was named Applesmack.... I think? I think she was a farmer. I let go of that thought as I saw Fluttershy walk into the kitchen.

I heard her grab some things from the fridge and put them in a basket. A minute later she comes out with what looks like a picnic basket in her arms. She looked at my resting form and smiled. I smiled back and rolled over on the couch on my belly and buried my face in some pillows. I heard her giggle. She walked to the door and opened it.

"I will be gone for a while. Will you be alright?" she asked with a bit of concern. I didn't reply.  I just raised my hand and gave a thumbs up. I heard her giggle again and close the door behind her as she walked  out. I sighed and put my hand down. I was lucky to be in her care and for her to let me stay while I was here. I am also grateful that she puts up with my behavior sometimes. I must be pretty annoying every now and then. Suddenly I felt guilty. I have been sleeping in her house and eating her food and I have nothing to show for it. This made me think. Will she kick me out eventually?

I rolled over on the couch and laid on my back. I looked around the house and saw how dirty it was. There were little areas of animal food, some trash here and there, also I think the dishes needed to be washed. An idea popped in my mind. Maybe I can earn my stay here. I stood up with a slight groan and walked to the kitchen where most of the cleaning stuff was. As I was walking there, a certain white bunny decided to come and visit me. I made it to the closet with all the supplies and saw Angel sitting on the kitchen counter eating a cookie. WE both stared at each other, unmoving. He suddenly glared at me and poked his tongue out. Not a second later he hopped of the counter and hopped quickly to the living room. "Stupid bunny" I groaned.

I walked to the closet and pulled out some cleaning supplies. I carried them back to the kitchen counter and thought on what I could do first. I guess I can start the dishes . I walked over to the sink and I stared at the two foot pile of dishes. I sighed. "Today is going to be long."

------------------------------------------------------------------<>------------------------------------------------------------------

I quietly walked through the door to my house. I was not sure if Night was asleep so I tried to be quiet. It was about eleven in the afternoon. I had been with my friends most of the day. When I told him I would be late, I didn't mean to be this late. I felt a bit guilty that I left him by himself the whole day. When I peeked through the door, I saw that all of the lights were off except for the kitchen light. I walked in and closed the door behind me. I walked to the kitchen, thinking I would find Night Wolf in there. When I entered the kitchen, I found that the whole area seemed....clean. I don't remember cleaning the kitchen before I left. I also noticed that the big pile of dishes were now not there anymore. I examined the whole kitchen and found all the plates, dishes, forks, and cups to be where they are supposed to be. I also found a note next to where sink was. I grabbed it and read it.

For all that you have done for me

-Night Wolf

I smiled and put the note down. I walked back to the living room to see if he was there. When I entered the living room I saw that Night was not on the couch, but he was laying sprawled out on the floor. He had a rag in his hand and he seemed kind of dirty. There was also a bit of drool leaking from the corner of his mouth. I giggled at his position. I walked to the couch and grabbed the blanket. I layed it over him and left him be since I knew I would never be able to carry him on the couch. After I layed the blanket on him.... I just stood there. I watched his sleeping form and a thought came to mind. I felt my face become very hot. He is asleep, what's the harm? I slowly bent down and planted a soft kiss on his forhead. His fur was soft to the touch and I felt a small shiver go up my spine. I quickly pulled back and it suddenly dawned on me what I had just done. I gasped and quickly ran to my bedroom, trying to forget what I had just done.
