Eleanor's P.O.V.

~10 years ago~

"AHHH!" People screaming, burning. There's nothing to do but watch.

Watching in horror, while people run out of the building. "Mama! Papa!" I scream, trying to get closer. "Sweetie, you need to back up." A fireman said.

"B-But m-my M-Mama a-and P-Papa a-are in th-ere." I stuttered. "Sweetie, we will try our best to find them." With that, more people run out of the building.

What seems like hours, the fire finally ended. "Mama?! Papa?!" I scream out. No reply.

I sob, only when my best friend Addison came and comforted me. "Ele, it's okay." She said, trying to soothe me. "B-But my Mama and Papa! I can't find them anywhere!" I said, sobbing harder.

I was only 7 when my parents died. I remembered that night like it happened yesterday.

I woke up from my nightmare, sweating. "Ele, you okay?" Addison said. "Yeah. Just my nightmare again." I said, while Addison giving me a glass on water.

"Thanks, Addi for being here." I said, gulping down the water. "It's what best friends do right?"

I giggled. "Yup. Wanna go to the mall tomorrow? Not that I'm a fan of shopping, but I need new clothes." I said, finishing my glass of water.

"Yup! We can get ready now, I mean it's like 12:36 A.M." I nodded, heading towards my wardrobe. I put on sweatpants and a baggy black shirt, tying my hair in a bun.

My name is Eleanor (As you can see...) and I don't like dressing up, even for a fancy wedding. I like to read, not a bookworm though, and lastly, I like looking at a computer screen, getting blinder each day. My best friend is Addison, Addi for short, and we both now that werewolves exists. We never met or encountered one before.

Getting out from the bathroom, I see Addi in skinny jeans and a hoodie. I slip on my converse and so does she, and we head out, walking towards our car. It's simple, nothing really. The color is black, ehh. That's all I know about cars.

I hop in the passenger's seat and Addi starting up the car, taking off.

Addison's parents are somewhere. We got use to them taking vacations often.

My parents died from a fire, but I never believed it. No one found their ashes, and they all assume that they died and their ashes burnt with them.

We turn up the radio and roll down the windows. About an hour later, we arrived at the mall. All the parking was taken, but we found a spot, decent enough to walk back and forth.

As we enter the mall, Addi takes off to Aeropostale. I sighed, and followed her. We go in, mostly to look at their hoodies. We each bought two new ones, and head towards other places.

"Can we eat yet?" I asked for the 10th time. "Fine, fine. just let me pay." She did as promised, and once she paid, we went towards the food court. Addi ordered Taco Bell, and she knows what I want.

I gave her the amount of money, and she goes off ordering for both of us. Since I was the lazy one, Addi did mostly everything for me, but sometimes I do stuff for her... Which was never.

I looked at my phone and it was 2:32. Dang. We've been here for 2 hours? I was playing a game, when Addi came with the food. "Thanks." I said, smiling, and digging in.

She rolled her eyes, and started to dig in too. Once I was done finishing my fourth taco, I felt someone's eyes staring at me.

"Addi, I think someone is watching us." I looked around and saw a table filled with boys, eating steak and meat. They were all staring at us.
