Chapter 12: Park

A/N (sorry) okay so I guess I did make it kinda complicated between them but that was my point so yeah and I just wanted to do a small shout out to this amazing person LoveAtFirstSight1 anyway love ya so continue reading 😉

Rachel's POV

Ugh I don't get this man! One minute his okay and then the next he's fuming! What am I suppose to do? its like he's bipolar or something. He was all sweet holding my hand, rubbing his thumb over the top of my hand, one moment. And then next moment he jerks his hand out of my grasp and glares at me! And he's the one that had reached over to hold my hand. He's just so, so, unpredictable and crazy.

'Yeah your crazy man'.

Oh so now you finally decided to show up, eh?

'Shut up', and then she was gone.

Well that was different and unexpected. I wonder why she's mad at me. I'm normally the one mad, not the other way around.

I didn't have much time to think about it because we were at the park already. I smiled and began wiggling around in my seat getting ready to unbuckle my seat belt and jump out. I really love the park, especially this one.

You see I have this little secret spot in the park that no one knows about only me. I haven't even shown Rafael! And I show him all the cool places, but this place is like my special little place. Where I go to think.

I found this when I was around nine, it was a beautiful mistake or a surprise, really. I had just gotten in a fight with Rafael as he had tried to convince me to call our Luna and Alpha, mom and dad. But I couldn't/can't. I love them and I'm thankful of them, but they are not my parents. My love for them doesn't even come close to the love I have for my real parents. So that's were me and Rafael buttheads, he feels like he loves like he loves them just as much as a parent maybe even more. And I don't think that's right. I shivered at the memory looking out the window.

~Flashback

"Come one Rachel, stop being some stupid baby. Think about, mom and dad are dead. They are never going to hug us again and they will never tell us sweet nothing's. They are gone, just face it. On the other hand Alpha and Luna take care of use like they would their own child, they love us and hug us. Why can't you see that?" Rafael said raising his hands up and huffing in annoyance.

I just crossed my arms over my chest and glared at him. "That's where your wrong Rafael. They will hold us and tell us sweet nothing's again. Maybe not in this realm, but what about in the dream realm or when we pass away as well? They are always with us because they made us and a little piece of them will always be with us! So they are not completely gone. And as for the Alpha and Luna, I know they love us as their own children, but it's still not the same. Rafael, why can't you see where I am coming from?" I asked almost whimpering.

"Because your being a big, stupid, baby! Let go of the past Rachel! If you keep holding on to it, you will never see what is right and in front of you! And mom and dad are dead. Nothing more or nothing less. Get. Over. It." Rafael yelled, growling the last bit of it.

I was tearing up, I furiously blinked my eyes and wiping away the tears that managed to slip out. I sniffled and looked at Rafael in the eye. He never yells at me, let alone call me names.

"Fine then." I whispered, and running off. I heard Rafael yell at me to come back. I ignored his yells

I ran out side, furiously wiping the hot tears that were streaming down my face. I made to the edge of the woods before shifting and letting my wolf take over.

After that everything is a blur. The only thing I know is that I woke up at my special place.
