Roses Are Red

Sound

You felt sadness when you didn't get to catch Drake on the way home. The Red Ford wasn't there when you looked over the blue house. Maybe he got there a little earlier than you and went shopping with his family. Or is it a family? Come to think of it, you haven't seen anyone come out of that place yet. Weird right? You now know Drake does live there, you could smell small wisp of his scent.

You pouted to yourself, you wanted to be closer to him. You froze and almost laughed out loud...when did you get like this? You were in the living room sitting on the couch. You were wearing a T-shirt and sweatpants. You had your legs tucked onto the couch with you, the tv was on and you were watching a scary movie. You've seen it before so the jumpscares didn't get to you much. You had a big bowl of chips next to you and was eating slowly. It was calm, you liked these moments....but you kept thinking of 'him'. Well obviously!

You got up and turned behind you climbing up to look out the window behind the couch. You peeked through the shades. You had to push close to the glass to see down toward the area of the house. Your heartbeat increased seeing the red dirty Ford just coming into the driveway. Your eyes shifted red, making you able to see better, which was good because it had gotten pretty dark out.

A woman came out of the drivers side door, she was short-ish seeing as she hopped to the ground. She had long stringy bleach blonde hair, she had what looked like a brown leather purse over her right shoulder. She was also wearing a white tight T-shirt, faded blue Jean shorts and tan sandles. Though it seemed a little odd on a woman that age. Drake was still wearing his red hoodie, his hands we're stuffed in his pockets when he exited the vehicle. He stood there waiting as the lady....his mother? You didn't know, opened the trunks hatch. You unconsciously tilted your head, you saw her turn to Drake waving her hands slightly and saying something. He just stared at the ground nodding, he said something back and she looked annoyed. She rolled her eyes and turned to walk to the house. It looked like the basements lights were on.

Drake looked back up to the houses door as she vanished from veiw into the dark home. The...maybe living room and kitchen lights we're turned on in the inside. He looked to have sighed deeply and eyed all the bags inside the trunk. You thought to go out there and help, but then thought better of it. Suddenly he paused for a long second having bags in both hands. He twisted around looking to your direction. You jumped back from the shades so hard you fell off the couch backwards. You shouted, then the air puffed out of your lungs when you hit the floor.

You felt your cheeks heat up, then you bust out laughing at yourself. Well you had been a bit dramatic. You held the back of your sore head and sat up. Your eyes must've changed back because now you just noticed how dark it was in the house. You stood up and cut the living room lamps on by the light switch. You wanted to look back outside but didn't want to risk him seeing you, he probably now knew you had been watching.

I hope he doesn't think I'm a creep of a mate.

You kept rubbing the tender part of your skull and walked to the floors bathroom and cutting the hall light on.

When is she coming back?

You asked yourself. Your Aunt....new Aunt, you met her five years ago. You had been sent to live with her for one of the main reasons....the wolf thing. She helped you understand your 'situation' better. You had found out of your.....rank and so there was things that were a bit different. Your Aunt did everything, to changing your schools to teaching you about the wolf side of you and more. She though was a Beta, but she had learned from more family members and others. She knew a lot more than anyone back home did. Her name was Amy, but you mostly called her Aunty. She gave you the run down of things quickly, you had been scared and confused at first. But, she is very nice, and she's there when you need her.
