Failing Moon Jealous, Maybe
Tarrin had full intention of explaining to Josey that she was foolish in assuming he was acting that way because of his personal life. However, after he followed her through the plastic flaps, and stopped in his tracks. The sight of Josey crouched down petting a little dog as the sunlight coming through the glass panes around them took his breath away. His vision was keener than usual, and while the sunshine hit her face just right when she smiled, Tarrin couldn’t take his eyes off her. She looked like an angel, with her hair dangling loosely and the smooth edges of her white teeth noticeable as she laughed playfully with the small dog. Tarrin noticed the shade difference in each eyelash as the light danced on her smooth porcelain skin. Josey cooed at the dog, “Oh my, you’re just so stinking cute. What are you doing out here alone?” “Dumb dog doesn’t know to find somewhere to get warm.” Tarrin watched as she rolled her eyes and stood up. “Dogs aren’t dumb. Sometimes they don’t kn
Failing Moon What He Said
They arrived back at the Terrace Pharmaceutical building. Mara stopped the car at the entrance, “I’ll let you two out here and park the car.” Tarrin nodded from the back seat as the attendant in front of the building opened the door for him. Getting out, Tarrin was suddenly dizzy and sat back in the seat. His hearing was on a rampage, and he could even smell the scent of the greenhouse dog on Josey. Reaching in his pocket, he said to Mara, “I need a minute,” then to Josey, “Go ahead and head up to the office.” Josey looked at him with her hand on the door, “Are you okay, Mr. Stormway? You look very pale!” Suddenly, before he could get the pill out of the small plastic case, Tarrin passed out. Josey caught his body and laid his head on her lap. “Mr. Stormway?” She said, panicking, patting his cheeks. Then, looking toward Mara, she yelled, “What do we do!?” Mara quickly shifted the car into park and got out, walking around the car to the attendant. “Mr. Stormway is exhausted. He
Failing Moon Pants Down
“Sorry, he’s normally not as useless,” Mara said to Josey, smiling at her innocently. Linux huffed, picking back up the syringe and vial before extracting a tiny amount of clear liquid into the syringe. “Is it going to hurt him?” Josey asked. “No, he’ll barely even feel it. Now, the thing is, it has to be injected in his, um, bum. So can you reach down and try to loosen his belt for me?” Mara didn’t react, but Josey stared at him, unsure of what he had just asked. “Do what?” Linux cleared his throat, “I need his belt loosened so I can pull his pants down. The injection has to be done in his,” Linux pointed to a butt cheek, “I’m sorry.” Josey shook her head, “No, find another way! I’d rather stay like this than do, do THAT!” “Look, if I could do it, I would. I’m just asking you to loosen his belt. I’ll pull the pants down.” Josey shook her head, “No, even if you ARE pulling his pants, er, down, he will still be laying against me, but pant less!” Mara snickered and covered her
Failing Moon On Second Thought
Tarrin was about to leave the bedroom, but thoughts on how he acted fighting off the wolf mutation in front of Josey made him think twice. It also helped that Linux spoke up, giving Tarrin a good excuse not to go down yet. “Before you go down to secure your pride, you need blood drawn. The mutation it’s getting stronger, Tarrin, and even though I may crack a joke here and there, it is dire. In the last five days, several things have happened I noticed that aren’t its normal pattern. The full moon is this weekend, now is the best time to get it under control. Besides, if you want to keep it from messing with your future love life, it’s best to teach it who the boss is.” Hearing the halfhearted seriousness in Linux’s voice, Tarrin nodded in agreement. “I shouldn’t see her right now anyway, so I’ll wait for you in the lab.” “Sounds good. Mara will be taking her back to the office anyway. When she leaves, I’ll be down,” Linux responded. Downstairs in the kitchen, Mara had whipped up
Failing Moon Their Story
Looking at the number he didn’t recognize, Tarrin answered cautiously, “Hello?” “Ah, Mr. Stormway? This is Detective Ranier from the homicide division. I was asked to call you if I had any development in the case regarding Robert and May Hathens. Detective Ombre gave me your number. Are you available to meet today?” Tarrin shot Linux a questioning look, and his friend nodded. “Yeah, today will be fine.” “Good, I’m down at the precinct. Let’s do 2:30?” Tarrin nodded and answered into the phone, “That works.” Hanging up, Tarrin looked at the time. He had an hour to meet the detective. “Do me a favor, head over to my office, and keep an eye on Josey. I’ll have Mara take me.” “Awe, you never let me join in on the exciting stuff, and WHY do I have to keep an eye on your secretary? She can keep an eye on herself!” Tarrin finished pulling off the medical tape from the IV and replied, “Just do it. This is serious, if that homicide detective has anything useful in finding Bob and Ma
Failing Moon Unhappily Stuck
Josey felt sorry for Tarrin after hearing what happened between him and his ex, but she was relieved they were no longer together and also angry that someone could be so judgmental. “Kinda pisses you off, doesn’t it?” Linux’s question snapped Josey out of her thoughtful stare, and she nodded, “Yeah, it does. I mean, it’s not like he is bedridden or has some crazy disease. I kinda feel sorry for him.” Linux choked on his water and shook his head, “Oh, don’t let him hear you say you feel bad for him. I wasn’t kidding when I said he was touchy about it.” Josey nodded, “Okay, I won’t, sorry. But, at least he made something of himself and can do better.” Linux smiled, “Yes, yes he can. So, what do you think about him?” “Me? I think he’s okay as a human being. He is rough around the edges, rather bossy and pushy, and I know he does things to irritate me on purpose. Mr. Stormway can be arrogant and confusing too. Other than that, as I said, he’s okay,” she shrugged with her response an
Failing Moon White Boxed Truck
After only a few mins passed, Mara came back into the detective’s office, and Tarrin glanced at her before continuing. “There was something out of sorts from what I recall when meeting Mr. Brightstone’s son before he died in an accident. I’m not usually untrusting, but he claimed Bob and May moved, never giving him the key and making him have to replace the locks to the place. He also had no forwarding address,” Tarrin explained, giving the detective only parts of what he actually knew, “My father was the one that said they couldn’t have moved when he spoke to them just a day prior to selling the place. They were expecting their godson to visit within the week. So they would have no reason to sell the place or just vanish.” “Do you know the name of their godson?” Tarrin shook his head honestly, “No, I don’t, but my father may know.” “I see, and because the autopsy report shows they died before being placed in the water, we are still investigating that,” said Mr. Ranier, the detect
Failing Moon Roof And Rain
Josey stared at the doors for however long it took for the elevator to reach the bottom floor. She debated testing the stairs, but what if the crazy lady was serious? Would anyone believe her? Is it worth spending one night in the office to not lose her job? “AHHHHhrgg!” Yelling in frustration, she headed back over to the desk, but then lightning hit, and the power went out. She quickly checked the phone, but there was no dial tone. Slamming it down, she murmured, “Great,” and searched her desk and lunch bag for a charger. There wasn’t one, so she thought of trying Tarrin’s office. But, unfortunately, it was pitch black in there, and she didn’t want to chance being accused of going through his things. Plopping down at the desk, she eyed her phone and tried turning it back on, but nothing. “Oh, why? Why do stupid things always have to happen? Why God, what did I do in a past life that you decided Josephine Parks would be born to make up for some stranger’s past mistakes?” Looking
