James and his mother sat at the table, eating their dinner. James's mother had made a variety of steaks and burgers. Even an entire Chicken. Along with fruits, And only a few vegetables. Which were clearly meant for her. James was wondering what brought on this action. He was thinking of why his mother made so much food... And why it was mostly meat.... They had a lot of money. And could buy whatever expensive meat they wan. And James loved meat.... But this was still overboard... He was however.... Starved..... He begins to eat the meal in front of him. Consistently clearing his plate... His mother watched worriedly. There was a somewhat awkward silence as well however... James looked up to his mother. "I told you... I'm fine... I know you're worried, but you don't have to stare." He says. "James... I... I do have to worry..." Her face turned into a even more concerned one. As well as sad. "You were turned......" She says. James looks up in shock. "What? No I wasn't." He argues. Trying to deny it. "James!.... I..... I know you were.... The sleep.... The..... Human howls from your room..... That was the Incubation... Something happened when you helped Cathy turn back. And I know it... So don't lie to me!" She says. Her worry boiled over and turned into a slight anger. It was taken out on James, As she was beyond stressed. And he had lied to her, making it worse. James wasn't happy. "I wi-" *He once more tried to wish. Wanting his mother to calm down, or be fine with it. But again... His mind had clouded over with static. He couldn't think straight. He had to own up... And face the music... "You're right....." James admits. He didn't have much of a choice. He couldn't keep lying. And his mother wanted what was best for him.... "I didn't think about it when it happened..... But she scratched my hand..... And must've infected me some way through it....." He admits. Leaving out the grizzly details of what he did with her in terms of sexual activity. "You will have to focus on learning to control the beast... On top of that, The incubation period may not be over yet. Or it might be. I don't know... But you must avoid sightings of the moon at all costs. As you know... And please try to contain your lust..." His mother says. She wanted to help but didn't know enough TO help.... She could only hope he got over it by himself... James went quiet. Contemplating what to do. And trying to think of how to get his ring to work again.... Maybe he could fix this.... He and his mother remained silent for the remainder of the dinner. At the end. James stood up. "I have to go." He says. "Alright...." His mother says, Not happy. But not wanting to stop him right now...
James goes to Cathy's house and...
