I groan as I turn off the alarm clock. I laid there staring at the time, 5:00. Why do they need me so early? Am I getting promoted I hope so, I really need the money? I get up and get my doctor's uniform, not much of a uniform just a robe, and put on my glasses on.

I go in the kitchen to find Rachael, my best friend’s girlfriend, cooking tuna. Rachael and Mark have been living here since the rental people kicked them out. I felt bad so I offered that they stayed here, but of course one of them had to work they debated and it turned out to be Mark while Rachael cleaned. "Well, well, lookie here I didn't know you could cook." She rolled her eyes and put the food on plates.

"Yes it's a special occasion ok, and when did you start wearing glasses hm?" She pointed at me with her utensil. I smiled and took a taste of her cooking. "So what do you think?" She asked cheerfully watching me as I get out a glass of milk and took a big swig.

"You do not want to know what I think dear." Her smile turns into a snarl cracking my head with her spoon. "Hey you know I don't like tuna." I protest rubbing my head and walking out, "I have a meeting today, and so you will make sure the house won't get ruined won't you." She sighed and agreed. "That's my good girl." I patted her head and smiled, she flipped me off, and oh how I love pissing her off.

I got out getting in my car, and taking out the map my boss gave me. Stone Hill, hm these people must be whack jobs living there, I heard that place is scary as shit. As I pull in the driveway I stare at the daunting building in front of me. I'm supposed to work here; I gulp as I get out of my car and open the door. "Hello, I'm the doctor you asked for, Adam Leach." I look around and spot blood on the floor. Ok moving on to the next room, I open the door and see workers everywhere.

"Mr. Leach in here." I was startled when someone grasped my shoulder. "Sorry didn't mean to startle you." He apologized formally leading me in a room full of what seemed like prison cells. "Now what you're about to see it secret, so you must not tell anyone understand me." I nodded my head in agreement; he's a big man so I wouldn't want to make him angry. "Well here she is." He stopped in front of a cell that had a bull in it.

"What the hell." My eyes grow wide, what are they doing with a bull maybe because it's strange looking. "So um what do you want me to do with it?" I asked worried, that things huge.
"I want you to heal her, I think she's sick she won't eat or drink." Why they kept calling her a she it's a bull.

"Um sir I think that's a bull, and why do you want it anyway." I study it and look at its chained ankles. Poor thing it's bleeding they need to loosen the chains.

"This boy is the last Taurus and the females are supposed to look like this, and as us scientists we are here to study about her, but she's gone sick." A Taurus huh, then why isn't she human like the rest of us. I agreed and went in the cage getting out my aid kit. "I leave you to your work, come on men lets go." Mr. Lee went out leaving me alone; she looked like she was going to eat me.

"It's ok I'm only here to help." I said stuttering I reached for her ankle and she snorted, startling me. I grasped on to her leg loosing the chain, and putting peroxide on her leg. She went crazy stomping around then she looked deep into my eyes entering my brain.
"What are you doing? Are you poisoning me?" She said angrily roaring through my head. I clutched my head groaning.

"No it's to help you, its medicine so you don't get infected." I screamed crying with pain, suddenly the pain went away replacing with a soft voice.
"I'm sorry, please don't hate me." Her eyes focused on the floor and her eyes were tearing up. I sighed and reached out for her snout petting her. I lifted her gaze to me.

"It's ok I don't hate you, in matter of fact why don't we be friends." I smiled lightly resting my chin on her nose. There was a flash then a girl in my arms crying, I held her tightly cradling her. I looked at her observing all of her features. She had light blondish brown hair, dark eyes, skinny and tan. She was beautiful nothing like I ever seen.

"You want to be friends with a Taurus." Her voice was light her sob wasn't annoying like the girls at home.

I smiled cupping her dirty face, "Of course it seems like you could use one." I chuckled lightly and she smiled. I washed her up and gave her some of the tuna Rachael gave me, and she ate it in like one bite. I laughed and told her I had to leave, she looked a little sad and she shifted. Well this day wasn't so bad, after all I made friends with an incredibly cute girl.

I feel sick and my ankles hurt badly to where I can't move them. I look over to see the idiots over by my cell pointing me with a stick, those bastards, how would they like it if I pointed them. But I shouldn't get angry it will only hurt worse, after all they did call a doctor for me. I wonder what he'll do when he glances at me; probably give me a disgusted look just like everyone else. I frowned at the thought of that cant anyone at least get to know me before judging.

I sigh and stare at the food and it taunts me. I would eat if they just moved the food closer I can't reach it. Soon I hear voices come down the hall, I recognize the dark voice that's Mr. Lee the other must be the doctor. "You must not tell anyone understand me." He said, oh no the doctors going to see me, I can't take another horrid face. "Well her she is." He pointed me out and a handsome man came over and stared at me, noo don't look.

"What the hell." His eyes widened but not of fear, "So um what do you want me to do with it?" It? I'm not an it, didn't he hear Mr. Lee I'm a girl.

"I want you to heal her, I think she's sick she won't eat or drink." No shit sherlock, move the bowls closer and I'll be able to eat and drink. Man I hate this place why don't they just kill me and get it over with.

The doctor became confused, then said the stupidest thing ever, it got me so pissed I wanted to hurt him so bad, "Um sir I think that's a bull, and why do you want it anyway." I agree with the question what they want with me, but the bull man but I guess it’s understandable. And you know for the first this boy actually looked fascinated and not frightened, it made me feel kind of good too. After they got done talking he went in my cage while they left him. I stared at him closely he was handsome alright, "its ok I'm here to help." He smiled and reached for my ankles, I snorted and backed away from him. But the reason I backed away was because he smiled and it was real it made me feel so happy and nervous; I fell in love at instant. He grasped my leg and poured some kind of liquid on me that hurt like hell. I stomped around trying to cool my wound he made; he was trying to kill me.

"What are you doing? Are you poisoning me?" I said angrily as I entered his head it seemed to hurt him, but I didn't care at the moment, he hurt me so I wanted him to feel my pain.

"No it's to help you, its medicine so you don't get infected." He cried in pain so I stopped hurting him. I then became sad and I felt regret for hurting him, medicine he was only trying to help me.

"I'm sorry, please don't hate me." I looked down at the floor and felt my eyes to tear up. How can I be so mean is that why mom- he started to pet me making me go dizzy.

"It's ok I don't hate you, in matter of fact why don't we be friends." He smiled at me so perfect I just wanted to kiss him. I shifted into human form and cried on his chest, how I have longed for those words so much. He held me so tightly embracing me it felt good, and his smell was good too.

"You want to be friends with a Taurus." He lifted me up so he could look in my face, I stared back at his and he was beautiful, brown eyes and hair, tan skin, soft lips mhm.
"Of course it seems like you could use one." He chuckled it was the most amazing thing ever, and it made me smile for the first time in a long time too. We ate, talked, and laughed, and then he had to go. I held on him tightly I couldn't wait until he came back. Man I'm going to treasure this moment forever, the day I got a friend.

When Mr. Lee said that the doctor wouldn’t come in three day I became devastated. I wanted to see him so bad he was my only friend, I can’t take this. I looked around, shifted, got some pillows and put them under a big blanket. I looked up at the vent and went to climb in, “Nah I got a turkey sandwich, but if you want we can trade.” I gasped and hid behind the blanket watching two guards pass by. They looked in my cage and shrugged walking away, idiots I thought. I climbed back up and crawled through, and yes I did know where to go to get out I just never did it because where would I go, no one loved me.

Once I got out I followed his sent. It took me a day to get there but it didn’t matter a least I would see him sooner, he made me want to tell him everything I felt so safe around him. When I got to his house I seen a garden that was so beautiful, it had flowers, fruits, and vegetables. All together it smelt like a salad bowl I could just munch up but I resisted I don’t think Adam would like that.

I walked up to a window and peeked through seeing to people cuddling together. The girl had dirty blonde hair and blue eyes very beautiful. The other had chestnut hair and green with a mixture of white eyes he was handsome but not as handsome as Adam. I went to the front door and peeked through that window and there I could see Adam in the next room. I jumped up for joy making a huge grin grow upon my face. I was getting ready to knock until I seen a girl crash into his lips. She had blonde hair weird looking clothes and she was very pretty. I looked there for a while, while they had there make out session. Why couldn’t that be me, oh yah I’m a freak of nature, what was I thinking how could I be so stupid I was born to be hated, how could I think I could end up with him? I mean wake up and smell the coffee Kiara he said he only wanted to be friends.

“Hold on let me get the door.” I heard a male voice come in my head making me jump back into reality. I gasped and ran over behind a tree, “Hello, I swore I seen someone out here.” I heard him mumble as he walked back inside. I slid down the tree and started to cry. After I got done I got up and ran back to the falsity I fell a couple times leaving cuts and bruises on my knees, but it didn’t match the pain I was already in.

Once I got back in my room and curled up in a ball. I kept thinking about what happened it wasn’t his fault after all he told me we were just friend, but somehow I couldn’t just not feel I was betrayed. I shifted back facing the wall from now on all this thing between us will just be checkups. I slept till the next day. I woke up seeing him as happy as could be oh boy this is going to be hard.
