I took things slow with Kim. After the first few days and finding out she wanted to be with me made taking it slow easier. And it was easier. I didn't have the struggle like Sam did to be near Kim, to spend time with her. And after getting past the first date things did get easier. More I guess you could say comfortable. Eventually we were officially dating. There was a certain security I felt in having that official commitment.
It took me all that time to feel secure and comfortable enough with Kim to finally show her and start explaining to her what was going on. There was another bonfire coming up soon, where Billy would gather us and tell the legends. I wanted to bring Kim, but I felt as though I owed it to her to let her know what she was now part of. What exactly I was. We had a dinner date. I tried to stay calm, and not let my nerves get to me. I suggested we go for a walk out on the beach after dinner. The weather was being decent tonight. We went to second beach. It was a bit more secluded. Less chance we'd have random people on the beach. We walked for a bit, and when we got closer to the tree line I stopped. Turning to Kim I told her there was something I wanted to show her. Taking a deep breath before I spoke to her again, I asked her to give me a few minutes and then to follow my foot prints. I walked calmly into the woods. Once I was out of her sight I stripped quickly and phased. Waiting for Kim to follow my foot prints in. Not sure if there would be any wolf paw prints for her to follow, I was trying to figure out what to do as I heard her call my name. I moved towards her slowly and nudged her hand carefully. I knew it would be a startling site. So I stayed still, letting her take in the new site.
Even though Kim only whispered my name I could hear it clearly. Nodding a bit as she said my name. Slowly after what seemed like forever she cautiously reached out towards me. I'd never had anyone run their fingers through my fur before. The feeling was unlike anything I could have expected. I don't know how much of it was from the imprint and how much was just due to being a wolf at the time. I couldn't help but lean into her touch. I watched a smile appear on her face. Staying there for a few moments before backing away, moving back into the woods far enough to be out of Kim's eye site before phasing back and dressing quickly. I couldn't wait to return to her side.
I came back to her, worried. Surprised that she had not run. I knew showing her could go one of two ways. She would run, tell me she never wanted to see me. Or she would stay, learn what was happening and we'd continue on together. When Kim reached out for my hand my heart soared. I was so happy. We started walking back towards the beach as I started to tell Kim everything. How that day I came back to school I had imprinted on her. Telling her what we knew about imprinting. How Sam had imprinted on Emily, and that we thought it was a rare event. Kim listened so carefully to everything I said. Once I'd told her everything it was truly like a weight had been lifted from my shoulders. I knew from that moment on there would be no secrets between us.
