Howl like you mean it (The Berlin Wolves series) *Completed*

Chapter 6

 "Where do you want us to put our stuff, Mrs. Danvers?" Beck asked polietly.

"Beck, i've known you since kindergarten and you guys have been at our house more times than I can count. Our home is your home. Put your stuff anywhere you like," My mom said walking into the kitchen.

  We threw our stuff down on the couch and followed my mom into the kitchen. We all sat down in one of  the stools at the island and my mom passed out glasses.

 "We have water, and orange juice. which one would you like?" She asked looking up guiltily.

"I told you to go shopping yesterday, mom," I said staring as she poured us some water.

  "I know. I'll go when your father gets home. I promise," My mom said as she put the water back in the fridge.

 I sighed and got up from my seat.

  "Come on you guys. We can go up to my room," I said and walked towards the stairs.

 They followed me- familar with my house- up the stairs and down the hall to the left. My room was the last door on the right. I opened it and we piled into my room. Chase and Beck took over my bed as usual, and Rylee and I sat down in my bean bag chairs.

  "So Lia, can you or Chase tell us exactly what you saw?" Beck asked us seriously.

I swallowed hard. I could remember exactly what i saw. But i wasn't sure i wanted to re-live it just yet. Against my will, i spoke up quietly.

  "It was big and black. It had orange eyes and it looked like a wolf. It walked on all fours...and acted like it was searching for something. Then it saw Chase and I and it went all crazy. It snarled and ran right for us. We ran as fast as we could...but some how it was faster," I was silent after that.

 Everyone just looked at me like I was crazy. I probably was with what I just described to them. I pulled my knees up to my chest and sat there like that forever before I said anything again.

  "I know it sounds like i'm crazy. But you guys...I know what I saw. I really want you to believe me, but right now I feel so alone.." I explained looking at my feet.

 "But, Lia..you do realize how utterly impossible what you described is. Your not going to find many people that would believe you about this...unless they are insane," Rylee said looking at Chase.

  "Then i guess it means we're insane. Becuase no matter what other people would have said, we believe you, Lia," Chase said smiling.

 Beck and Rylee nodded in agreement with what Chase said and I suddenly felt  much better.

  "Okay you guys...what do you guys want for dinner?" I asked them.

   "Whatever your mom wants to cook is fine with me, " Rylee said.

 Beck and Chase nodded in agreement. And we filed downstairs to look for my mom. She was- to no surprise- in the kitchen with my dad making something.

 "Hey dad," I said when we walked in.

   "Hey kiddo. I see your mom brought home the rest of the Brady Bunch. Rylee, Chase, and Beck...I havent seen you kids since...well since four days ago actually when you came over. Do you guys ever go home?" My dad asked smiling and teasing us.

  "Yes Dad they do eventually go home. And they will tonight. I just wanted them to come over today," i said grabbing an apple from the fridge.

 My dad just smiled at me as we walked into the living room and sat down on the couch. I reached for the remote, but I felt pain shoot up my arm and i yanked my shirt sleeve up. My cut had reopened and it was dripping blood. It burned so freaking bad.

 "Beck, Chase, would either of you mind getting me some more bandages?" I asked them.

   "Yeah why? Oh my god, Lia!" Chase yelled.

 My mom and dad came storming into the living room and saw my arm.

  "Lia what happened to your arm?" My mom yelled.

 "Beck, would you mind getting the first aid kit from under the sink?" My dad asked him coming to my side.

 "Sure Mr.Danvers," Beck said, and in no time he was back and hande the kit to my dad.

"Lia this will sting. Hold on to someone," My dad warned me.

  I grabbed for Beck's hand which was the closest thing and squeezed as hard as i could. That's when the burning started. I bit my lip too, to distract me from the pain. It stopped and my dad was wrapping my arm in a bandage.

 "Lia, would you mind telling me what happened?" My mom insisted.

"Remember when I told you that Mr.Dylans was killed? Well, whatever killed him attacked Chase and I first," I explained at Chase lifted up the side of his shirt to show my mom.

  "Why didnt you tell us about this?" My dad asked me.

"Becuase I didnt want you to make a big deal about it, Dad. Like you and Mom do about everything," I said sighing.

 "Okay i think it's time for your friends to go home. Say good-bye Lia," My dad said ushering them to the door.

 "Bye you guys," I said then walked up the stairs to go to my room, and get ready for bed.
