Eventually my mom left and I was alone with the sleeping triplets and my thoughts. I'm scared, no terrified. Why is all this happening? I'm still struggling with the idea that the boys don't hate me. Now I got to deal with having been attacked. I have to be such an inconvenience to my mom, now she has to pay all the bills. Hospitals are ridiculously expensive. But on top of that the message that other people are coming, and the boys are somehow involved. The boys are the only people that could possibly be misperceived as my boyfriends. They aren't the first people to do so. I don't care what is really going on I just want it to make sense. The scariest thing is not the monster, but not knowing the monster. I don't know who attacked me. I don't why. I'm sick of not knowing. I just for once want a solid answer. No truths with a hidden meaning I want the truth. I turned off the TV to frustrated to pay attention. Now the only sound was the breathing and beeping of machines. I can't. I can't do this. I can't do this. At least before I knew what was going on. Now nothing makes sense. I felt a few silent tears fall. I can't do this.

"Nitorian please wake up." I felt someone shaking me and I groaned trying to pull away and grabbing onto a giant warm pillow. "Hey we're leaving the hospital soon. If you want us to carry you we can." I groaned again but opened my eyes. I was clinging to Leo. "Hey there sleepy." He said pushing some hair out of my eyes. I burrowed my head into his chest and closed my eyes. "I guess I'll carry you." I felt myself being lifted up and opened my eyes. All I could see was over Leo's shoulder at Frank. "Hi there." I grunted and curled my legs and arms around Leo. "You can sleep it's still early." I nodded to Frank closing my eyes again drifting of at the gentle bobbing of Leo walking.

I started waking up again to the sound of a cars engine. I groaned rubbing my eyes awake. "Hey sleepy head. You woke just in time we're almost there." I looked at Jack who was driving and than out the window to see the trees. I was in the front seat of their car. "Where are we?" I asked confused. I remember a bit of this morning but nothing I was seeing was familiar. "You'll see. It's a surprise. Your mom said we could take you wherever we wanted for the weekend. And our parents are cool with it so we're having a mini ROAD TRIP!!!" Frank explained with much enthusiasm from the back seat. I chuckled. "Now play some music it's getting boring back here." Frank said pointing at a CD player and handing me a case full of CDs. I took it and flipped threw till I found the perfect CD and popped it in. "Nice choice." I heard Leo say as Panic! At The Disco blasted threw the speakers. I smiled and sang along quietly. The boys basically yelled the lyrics and the next few house became a blur of one edgy emo song to the next. We finally pulled by the giant glistening frozen over lake and I smiled pulling out my phone to take a picture. I'm gonna draw it latter. Jack turned down the music as we turned down a dirt road along the frozen lake. "It's just down this road." He slowed down the car so there would be less of an uncontrolled bounce. "We haven't seen it in years." Frank said. I wondered where it was. "I hope it's still in one piece." Leo said. In a second I saw what they were talking about. It was a cute little cabin in the woods by a frozen over lake. It was in really good condition from what I could tell looking at it from the outside. It looked like it was big enough for a normal family. It had two stories and a large balcony. I could spot a hot tub and a grill next to an outdoor table and chairs. There was even a dock to put a boat or go fishing. "Of course it's still in shape we aren't the only people that come here."Jack said pulling the car to a stop in front of the cabin. I honestly didn't know what to say. The place was beautiful, but it reminded me too much of Alaska. "Well welcome to our families vacation home." Leo said opening my door for me. I didn't even notice everyone got out. I quickly unbuckled and exited the car blushing from embarrassment. "We can only stay one night though cause tomorrow is a Sunday than the day after that is a school day. So one night in a cabin by a frozen lake." Frank said pulling me in front of the car. The snow went up to my knees and I loved it. I knew it would ruin my clothes but isn't that what they're for? I realized a hadn't really said anything yet. "I love it." The boys seemed to relax a bit and seemed very pleased with themselves. Jack tossed Frank the keys. "Go inside we'll get everything." I was about to object before Frank started pulling me towards the cabin. "I can help you know." He didn't stop. "Yeah but you don't have to." I sighed and just like normal let it happen. We reached the front door and Frank unlocked it swinging the door open. He quickly walked in and I followed him. The cabin immediately look so much bigger than it did when we were outside. I didn't even think about there might be an upstairs. There was a huge fire place with a family room. There were windows that allowed you to over look the entire lake. "Nice view." I said pulling off my coat and boots. "Yeah it's pretty cool. You know the lake should be frozen over to the point we can skate on it." I cringed. "Last time I skated I dislocated my shoulder." Frank looked angry for a second but the emotion quickly left. Weird, though very little that happens around them makes sense. Usually that would scare me away. But no matter what happens I just feel like I need to be around them. Not to forget to mention I have a slight crush. They'er all so nice, not to forget to mention attractive. "I'm sure we'll find one way or another to have fun."

"Leo it's smores how could you forget the chocolate?" Frank ask sounding a bit annoyed. I chuckled handing Jack my stick with my marshmallows on it. "I have an idea." I wrapped my blanket around me and headed to the kitchen. The day had been so much fun. We went sledding and made snowman in the snow. I felt like a kid. Than we built a fire and are trying to make marshmallows. Without chocolate. I opened the pantry witch was strangely very well stocked. I scanned the shelfs and found what I was looking for. I headed out of the kitchen and stopped hearing my name being used in a conversation. "-Nitorian deserves to know." Leo said. What are they talking about? "He happy. Please wait till..." Frank responded. Just what? Was this about the attack? What did they know? I took a breath calming down remembering that snooping not a good thing to do. "He's taking awhile should we-" I interrupt Jack not wanting them to know I snooped. "Found it!" I said running in the room holding the honey triumphantly. I handed it to Leo and took my stick from Jack. "What I miss?" I asked holding them over the fire. They were silent for a second. It was nerve-wracking cause I more or less knew what was gonna happen. They're gonna say something and they're afraid I wont like it. Meaning it's not likely going to be good. "Well we um, we kinda..." Frank tried but died out. Oh fuck it must be bad. I looked at them. "Just tell me. I'll try not to freak out." Silence again than finally, Jack spit it out. "We're werewolfs."
