PJ's POV

I woke up to the sun shining brightly in my face.

I shifted around as a 'dog', thank god I was still one cuz sometimes I wouldn't stay phased throughout for some odd reason

I looked at the time

'9:00AM'

Riker was still in bed too

Eh, since I'm a dog, I might as well make this fun.

I crawled over to his face and started nuzzling my nose into his neck and snuffling. I heard it tickles so why not give it a shot

True enough, from a small smile it soon started to become his adorable little giggle

"I'm awake I'm awake. Morning to you too Loges" he says in his husky morning voice, petting my head.

I yapped in response

"You wanna go get some breakfast girl? Come on, and maybe we could go and hang out with the rest of the gang and the new neighbours too!" he exclaimed excitedly.

I barked again in response and jumped onto the floor, tail wagging rapidly in excitement.

"Glad you feel that way too girl! Let's go!" he yells, pulling a shirt on and running out of his room with me behind him.

**********************

After breakfast, and when everyone had finished getting ready, we all headed out to the park, apparently SJ was coming too.

The Lynches hopped into their van, leaving me outside staring at them with the 'what about me' look.

"Don't worry Logan, you can sit on my lap while Riker drives" Ross offers as he scoops me up from the concrete sidewalk.

During about 15 minutes of wild fun and partying in the van, my eyes made contact with Riker's as I felt warmth spread through me, as the memories I've had with Ryland before the memory erase had been replaced with Riker instead as his voice echoed throughout my head.

"...PJ...?"

I snapped back to reality to find that the whole atmosphere had changed, or rather everything has frozen up. It was as if everyone was made out of concrete.

"Penelope my dear" a woman's voice came into my head as I whipped my head towards the right to find a wolf of the same colour yet of a bigger size than me, staring back at me with kind eyes.

"M-mum?"

"Yes honey. It is me. I've been watching you and your brother all these years. I'm so proud of the two of you." she says in my mind.

"Thanks mumma. I miss you" I say tearfully.

"Your father and I miss you two as well. So catching up, I heard you still have yet to discover your powers and as for your soulmate and imprinting-" I cut her off

"Not so good. He's taken"

"Honey, you are aware imprinting can only happen once?" she asks, concerned.

"Yes mum, I'm aware of that. But I imprinted on that boy there in the back row who has his hand locked with that other girl" I choke out.

"Now that's not right. Seeing the things that you two have been through, you are aware that despite the fact that imprinting is supposed to happen only once, since fate has been tampered with, that your soulmate also has changed" she says, raising a wolf brow at me.

No, it cannot be. She can't possibly mean...

"Yes honey, your soulmate now is Riker"

I refuse to accept it.

"I know it's hard but you have to move on. And look, now that you're a pet to him it'll be easier to get to know him" she points out.

"Oh yeah. I was so blinded with jealousy and anger that I didn't see that coming. Thanks mumma"

"Okay, everything is going to unfreeze right now and I'm gonna go. Goodbye my sweet, I'll be back soon to help you further" she says as her image fades off.

Everything around me slowly starts moving and...

"Hey guys, what do it think of the new neighbours?" Ross said from above me.

"I think they're so damn cool and stuff like..." Rocky starts naming a whole list.

"Something about them seems a bit familiar" Ryland mumbles.

"They're totally like us except it's just the two of them" Rydel chirps.

"Riker, what about you?" Ross asks, wiggling his eyebrows.

"Uh" Riker stutters "I think they're awesome. They're cool yeah, why not?"

"Care to be more specific? Maybe hmm a certain girl?" Rydel giggles.

"I don't know what you're talking about" Riker says firmly, clearing his throat.

I swear my heart kinda almost broke... Like REJECTED.

I must've let out a whine cuz next thing ya know it, everyone was looking at me.

"Aw see? Even Logan agrees too Riker. We all know you like her" Ross says accusingly, rubbing behind my ears.

"Yeah but, I just-" Riker looses his cool and starts stuttering once again.

"Look man, the only time I've seen you even this kind of thing was... Never! Dude, you're in LOVE" Ross says with eyes the size of dinner plates.

"I have to agree with Ross there Riker. Never once, not even over Diana off the Glee set, have we ever seen you act so possessive and such over a girl" Rydel says now losing her giggly self.

"Yeah, make your move man" Rocky says, punching Riker's arm lightly.

"Okay okay... We're here" Riker says, looking a little flustered.

The minute Ross opened the door, I zipped into my own house.

"Hey PJ dear, interesting entrance. Now where were you all night young lady?"

Ooooooooh is PJ in trouble... She really can be quite careless at times. But have some faith in her, she's really quite loveable...
