It was about midnight and I couldn’t sleep. My mind was buzzing with excitement, with wonder of what else I could change into. I pulled back my covers and walked to the window, I sat on the sill and breathed in the crisp night air. I couldn’t judge the distance from my window to the garden floor but I imagined it was quite a drop.

I leaned forward thinking of yesterdays wolf session, at that moment I had a crazy idea and threw myself out of the window. It felt like I was falling in slow motion but the air rushed passed me. I clasped my eyes shut, this was probably a stupid thing to do but I had to try. I pictured an eagle, “Here goes nothing” I uttered.

My body shook violently, before I hit the floor my form changed once more. I looked either side of me and realized I had an impressive pair of wings decorated with majestic feathers. I loved the feeling of my body cutting through the midnight chill of the air.

My euphoria was disrupted abruptly, a voice in my head that wasn’t my own " silly boy"
