⚪️Two years later⚪️

"I'm bored!" I complained as Cody nodded. I was upside down on the couch watching a movie like we usually do on my birthday. I hate that its in Winter. Buzz! I looked up at Cody while his phone buzzed. "Ugh, Mom wants me home. I have to go." He hugged me and I hugged back. I saw Luke glare at him over his shoulder and I made a stern face before he quit. "Call me later." I demanded.

He nodded before hopping upstairs and out the front door. "What do you want to do Luke?" I asked after a few seconds. He jumped up and walked over to me. He looked around before hoping right on my legs. "Luke! Your getting big! We cant keep doing this."I grunted. He whimpered and I gave in. He knew how to persuade me. I sighed and he sat there laying in my legs, sleeping, while I played with his fur. We heard feet walking down the stairs and our heads snapped towards them.

Luke leaped off and I checked the couches for any hair. Mom walked in and I smiled. "Hey, Mom. What's up?" I say casually pushing myself off the couch.  "Nothing just coming to check up on you and start laundry." I nodded and for a second I thought. "Luke come."

I whistled and he hopped up the stairs. I grabbed the leash and started walking towards him. He happily let me put it on before I slipped on my jacket and combat boots.  "Mom! I am taking Luke for a walk!" I smiled before slamming the door against the cold wind. Luke trotted beside me like on guard and we headed towards the woods. I feel safe in the woods. I never knew why, I just did.

I was humming and Luke happily listened. Then a snowball, big snowball hit me right in the back and I almost fell forward. I heard laughing and turned around, I was fuming. "Aw, Is Anderson mad? You poor poor baby." I growled, which is weird, who growls, and Luke's eyes went wide. "Britt. Please." I let out breaths to calm me down and looked him in the eye as his minions kept laughing. "I don't know what I did to make you hate me, but please, leave me alone." I calmly say. Britt puts on a sad face. "I'm sorry- for being better than a small runt!"

He and his minions burst into laughter once again and I swear, steam was coming out of my ears. Then all of the sudden another snowball was coming towards my face. I gasped but then someone jumped up and blocked the snowball from hitting my face.

A loud growl ripped through Luke's throat and the boys backed up. "Tell your mutt to leave us alone!" Andrew, one of Britt's minions, whimpered and the group nodded. Some voice in my head said, "Split the group and leave Britt. Let me at him." I looked at Luke and he was looking at me. I looked back up and smirked. "Everyone leave- Britt stays."

Everyone rushed off and Britt looked at Luke wide-eyed as Luke let out furious growls. I walked over to him, 5 inches away from his nose and smiled. Luke circled him but Michael had his attention on me. "Your lucky I'm sweet, but..."I chuckled evilly. "Luke, if you can hear me, just scare him." I said and Luke stood in front of him. Luke then growled and jumped to bite him while Britt let out a girl scream trying to block the bite.

Luke had that wolfy grin as he trotted back to my side and sat.He looked proud of himself and I shook my head while chuckling. "You'll regret this Anderson." Britt gritted through his teeth hoping back on his bike. He quickly peddled away and I bent down to Luke. His head was still watching Britt peddle away and was growling. "Luke...Luke, stop!" I say trying to make him face me. I sighed and tried to get in front of him but he looked over my shoulder. "I would be most proud if you looked at me Luke." I said straight and he peeled his eyes away from Britt's direction. "He's not worth it.Thank you."

I smiled and he stuck his tongue out before I rubbed his head and we started walking home. Luke and I have this weird connection. We can speak to each other through our minds. Its weird. I open the door and take off my shoes before unhooking Luke's leash. I pushed my back against the wall and took deep breaths in. "Relax." Luke's voice rang through my head and he nudged me with his nose. I smiled and hung my jacket up before walking up stairs with Luke. I laid on my bed and thought: It's a messed up life for just a 12 year old.
