A month has passed since the accident, and Lukes death. I can't get the sound of his screams out of my head. I have nightmares now, awful ones. I wake up screaming, and drenched in sweat. The only thing I ever remember from them is awful yellow eyes stareing into mine.

Lukes death has been hard on everyone. The funeral was beautiful, closed casket of course. His parents were so kind hugging me, and telling me how much he loved me. Like that could possibly make me feel better. Of, course I didn't tell them that. His brown eyes haunt me everywhere I go now. I can't help but feel like his death was my fault, even though everyone tells me it wasn't. It was my fault, because i could have saved him.

Sereatha and I haven't really talked much about what happend. There are other werewolves, and now we know. I haven't shifted in over two weeks in fear of another run in with the others. Sereatha hasn't shifted at all. Not only do we not talk about it, we don't even really talk to each other anymore.

Everything between us is so diffrent. Every time we see each other, she flinches away from me. Maybe her wolf side senses the same thing mine does. A change so profound in me that its like I'm not even the same person. The wolf inside of me is much more wild now, it tears at me at all times to get out.

Jordan, got out of the hospital a week after the accident. He only had minor injuries, though he did have to get his stomach pumped. He comes over to the house every now and then to visit Sereatha, though they're not together anymore.

My parents have been really strict lately, but that'll wear of soon now that the fear that were going to die is out of the way. Cody and Katie are just happy we're okay.

We just started back school a couple of days ago. Its not the same without Luke. Everyone stares at me in pity. There's no one by my side anymore, and I have no one to blame but my self.

" Brooke, get down here!" George shouts effectively cutting off my guilty thoughts.

With a sigh and an eye roll, I head down to the living room. George is sitting on the couch giving me the stink eye, while Amy scrambles around to the kitchen to feed Katie and Cody. The living room to the naked eye is average. However, if you take a closer look you can see just how amazingly spotless it is.

" We got a call today," he says" about a school that is offering you and your sister a full ride."

"And?" I question with a raise of my brow. I have no clue what he's talking about right now.

"Its a good school, and your mother and I think it would be an opportunity for you after everything. " Now he's not looking me in the eye. That means he's hiding something.

" Daddd, tell me." I state.

" Well honey its kind of a boarding school."

Hoenestly, maybe I should be mad, but I'm not. I know where he's coming from. He thinks it will be good for me.

A month ago I never would have considered leaving my home. Then I would have been leaving everything my friends, family, my boyfriend. Everything is diffrent now. I no longer feel that tie here. All I feel now is sadness when I look around me.

"Give me time to think about it," I say after a moment.

" They'll be here for an interview tomorrow. I also have a brochure for you to look at."

At least its just an interview I guess. I don't know if Sereatha knows yet. I doubt it since I haven't heard any yelling and stomping around.
