The ride back to Sam's was full of laughter and good music. The ride went by so fast, a lot faster than this morning. Time flies when you're having fun, right? And for the first time in a really long time, I actually genuinely felt happy. No medicines forcing me to feel a certain way, No therapy techniques, Just me and a friend doing what we wanted to.

We arrived at Sam's a few moments later. Embry noticed that there was a bunch of cars out front of the house, He began listing off the owners of the cars. Paul, Quil, Sam, Leah, Jared, And Jake.

"Plus the few that don't drive." He informed me.

"oh okay." I nodded feeling a little anxious about being around a lot of people.

"You'll be fine. They won't hurt you I promise." He tried to help reassure me as we pulled in at the end of the line.

As he shut the car off I opened my door to climb out. As he climbed out I opened the back door and let out Maverick, and slung my bag on my back. After shutting the doors we started our way up to the house.

We walked into the house, I had a death grip on Mavericks leash, I don't know how I am going to handle this. But however I do, I need to just relax.

"Hey guys!" Embry yelled as he walked in the door and began doing bro hugs and handshakes with the guys. "Where is Leah and Seth?"

"Patrol." Sam said sternly.

I walked in right after Embry and saw all the eyes on me. I made my way over to Emily and hugged her.

"Hey Niah, How was your day?" She asked genuinely curious.

"Really good, thanks to Embry. There was only one attack today."

"That's really good to hear Niah!" She encouraged, giving me a hug.

"I know," I agreed. "Well I'm going to sit in the living room to do my homework."

"Okay! I'll bring you and Maverick food in a bit." She whispered as I pulled away from our hug.

"Sounds good." I thanked and continued our way to the living room.

I clicked on the television, the news was on, and started flicking through my backpack to find my math stuff to get caught up. My legs were crossed, my books on my lap, and Maverick was laying right in front of my spot on the couch.

The pack was sitting around the table having jokes and laughs all the while of me doing my homework. After a bit of time Sam sent Quil and Embry to go switch with Seth and Leah. That was my cue to go upstairs for a little to just relax and listen to music.  I packed my stuff up and started my way towards the stairs.

"Food will be ready soon Niah." Emily called over my way.

" Okay! I'm just going to put my things in my room!" I turned to face her so she could hear me better.

She just nodded and continued cooking that nights dinner. I'm still not quite sure what it is, but if Emily is cooking, you know it's good. But I took her going back to what she was doing as my cue to go upstairs and put my stuff away. Maverick was downstairs still, it was close to dinner time and he knew that if he stayed down there he would get some little scraps of food.

I lightly giggled at the thought of my dog as I placed my bag at the end of my bed.

I softly sighed as crossed to the edge of my bed to sit down. I pulled open my drawer and pulled out my medicine and quickly threw them down my throat with a sip of water.

Taking medication multiple times a day to keep my anxiety under control is just insane and embarrassing. I have to take a medication every eight hours and then have an as needed medication for emergency circumstances. I always had to run up to my dressing table to these little orange bottles, to help make me feel better. It always concerned Emily when I just disappeared up to my room to take medication. I always assured her if anything was wrong, I would come running for help.
