Alex
I laid in bed with Jack,my husband.. He snuggled to me softly, I couldn't help but think about Suzie, how her mother wouldn't even let me see her. Jack touched my arm. "Hey? You okay Aly?" He asked looking at me, I kissed his forehead and nodded, I lied. "Your lying."
I didn't wanna talk about this now, I didn't wanna get into a fight with about my own inner demons. Just before he could say another word, my phone started to ring and he got up and went to the bathroom.
I looked at the caller I.D, it was Lycan. We are all friends now so..
'Ello.'
'Hey can you come over and bring food we're starving.'
'Sure but why if I may ask?'
'I'll explain when you get here. Also come
Briar's old house in the woods.'

Before I can ask another question, he hangs up with out notice, I grab a bag and packed some old clothes that I'm sure Briar and Lycan can fit. I'm shaking like crazy as I grabbed my gun putting it in the bag too, "Alex, What's wrong?" Jack said as comes out the bathroom seeing the bag but not the gun.
"Its Lycan and Briar." I whispered before I zip the bag up.
"You mean the two nice men who came to our wedding? Are they okay?" I shook my head wanting to break down, losing my only friends and daughter in the same week.
"Let's go to them. I'm sure they'll explain everything ok?" Jack patted my back and pulled on some clothes, I did the same and grabbed the bag, some cash, and a few groceries to take to them.

Time Skip.

10 p.m

"Wait in the car. I'll be back in no time." I pecked Jack's lips and hopped out. I strode up to the door with the confidence that everything was okay.
I knocked on the door, it creeked open like someone had been here and the lights were dim.
"Boo!" Briar jumped out from behind the door, I screamed. Lycan came out the back with a concerned look on his face, he then realized what was going on. He glared at him, "Holy shit. You scared the bloody pissed outta me mate." I groaned hitting him in the shoulder before  tossing Lycan the bag. He laughed and noticed Jack in the car. He waved from him to come in so he did. Music was playing I believe it was Bite my tongue by You me at six. One of my favorite bands, I sit down on the couch and just listen for a minute.

I hate to break it to you
But you're just a lonely star
I try to bring you down but
Our level isn't good enough
You always do as you believe so
I'm gonna follow suit
And take a seat
I'll watch you fall apart
Cause in the end what are you without me
I'll slow this down cause I know that you can't keep up
Oh maybe I maybe I was wrong from the start
I might be proud but least I'm proud of something
You've taken pride in becoming nothing
You keep me on the edge of my seat
I bite my tongue so you don't hear me
I wanna hate every part of you in me
I can't hate the ones who made me
You keep me on the edge of my seat
I bite my tongue so you don't hear me
I wanna hate every part of you in me
I can't hate the ones who made me
I'm married to the music
For better or for worse
You say that I'm privileged but
My gift is my curse
I can't recall the last time
Someone asked me how I was
Last I checked I was a fucking wreck
I called for help and no one showed up
So I'll sit in the dirt
You keep me on the edge of my seat
I bite my tongue so you don't hear me
I wanna hate every part of you in me
I can't hate the ones who made me
You keep me on the edge of my seat
I bite my tongue so you don't hear me
I wanna hate every part of you in me
I can't hate the ones who made me
Just forget what you've learned
Just forget what you've heard
The truth just confirmed
I can't bare the sight of you anymore
You've become what I hate
Sold yourself for a bit of fame
Now the wolves have closed the doors
Wanna drag me down for more
FUCK YOU
FUCK YOU
You keep me on the edge of my seat
I bite my tongue so you don't hear me
I wanna hate every part of you in me
I can't hate the ones who made me
You keep me on the edge of my seat
I bite my tongue so you don't hear me
I wanna hate every part of you in me
I can't hate the ones who made me
(end)

"Alex? Baby?" I quickly pulled myself out of my own head and look at Jack who's been trying to get my attention for about five minutes now.
"Hmm?" I replied still a bit spaced out.
He held my hand in his, "Can they stay with us? This place is not safe." I nodded.
Wait why isn't it safe?
Lycan and Briar sit across from us, Briar's hand resting carefully on Lycan's leg, Lycan is calm looking at us. "Why cant you guys stay here?" I asked looking at them.
Briar opened his mouth to speak but Lycan spoke first. "Long story short, Briar's parents aren't dead and they're trying to kill us." Lycan says casually. Jack gasped. "Dear God. You have to come stay with us."
I nodded. Briar stood up. "No. We intend to stay here. They will find you. In the event that they do. You tell them where we are to keep them from killing you or Jack. You understand?" I wanted to argue with that. But stayed silent as he talked more.
"Now we have contacted Suzie's mother, she is bringing her to my sister's house." He said firmly. "After you leave here go there and tell my sister everything I've told you. When that is done call us okay." 

Jack squeezed my hand and got up.
"Then there is no time to waste." I said standing up also.
We both rushed out the door little did we know.
We were being watched.
