Zane's twin

Grounded

Aaron's P.O.V

She needs space. I get that, but I can't help but feel like every time I leave her and let her go, something happens that I could of stopped...
I went home last after the pack.
I ignored my dad going on about the family business and Mom saying I need more friends.
I go up to my room and strum my guitar. Letting the music district me from my problems.
Every worry flying away as I strings bend and move to my will.
I was doing music class tomorrow for the first time. That would be cool.
School had decided to add it to the curriculum because we are having a talent competition in a few months. I have been told that we were all taking the class no matter our talent so everyone had a good chance to win. Or some bull crap like that.
I played till my fingers were saw and than had a shower and went to bed.

Zaylar's P.O.V

I get home late. Mom and Dad were out on business for a few weeks so I only had to deal with Garroth.
I open the door and see Garroth, Zane and Vlad passing the living room.
"ZAY ZAY! We were so worried!" They shout running and hugging me.
I basically get flattened by them.
"Jeeze, get off! It is only...," I look at the cloak, "11:52pm..." I say.
"Where were you?!" Garroth says.
"I went on a run after the howling with the pack." I wasn't lying. I just wasn't telling them everything.
"You Missy, are grounded!" Garroth says.
"And you Mr, aren't my parents!" I yell in return.
"You will walk with one if us to and from school and one of us will take you to dance and back as well. No exceptions." Garroth says finally walking out the room.
"Bottle fed..." I whisper under my breath.
He stops for a moment but keeps going.

Laurence's P.O.V

"Bottle fed?" I ask after Garroth came back to his/our room. I was staying here because my parents had gone with his and I need some where to stay.
"Yeah..." He says.
"What does that mean?" I ask him.
"It means I had a potion to be a werewolf. Unlike her..." He says sighing heavily.
"What is so bad about that? I mean so what?"
"We tend to be less then them. Slower. Weaker. Can't transform anytime. Only on the full moon." He says.
"So? You are still her older brother..."
"Ha, try telling her that. She is just in a bad mood because I grounded her. It will pass. I hope..." He says.
"I can go talk to her if you want." I says.
"If you can, go ahead, but if you get a broken arm don't blame me" he says putting his hands above his head.
"I will take my chances." I get up and leave, shutting the door behind me.
I make my way to her bedroom.
Just before I open it I hear her voice.
"Open that door and it will be the last thing you do!" She calls from inside.
I step away for a moment, but then I think. I came to talk to her and so I will.
I open the door and move inside.
I see her in her bed on her phone.
"I said get out!" She yells.
"Yeah, you did." I say shutting the door.
"Get out if my room!" She says getting out of bed and opening the door.
"I could, or I could ask if you want to play the new Zombie Ripper game?" I say. I new she liked the game.
She played the old one all the time.
It came out a few weeks ago.
Her eye/s light up.
"I hate you..." She says hugging me quickly, "but you are amazing." She says.
"I know"
We go down stairs and turn on the Xbox in the living room.
We play for about an hour. She beat me... Every time... But it was still fun.
"I am heading up to bed now." She says after the game ended.
"Yeah, me to." I say getting up as well.
She pulls me into a hug.
"Thank you..." She whispers.
I hold her for a a while.
She didn't seam like the cold Zaylar I knew. She felt like a kid again.
When we had are play dates.

*flashback*

"My bowl!" Zaylar yells chancing Garroth. She was only five but she was fast.
Garroth was 7. So was I.
"Nw, Nw, Nw, my bolwly" Garroth yells running away.
"Zu Zu hewp!" She yells.
Now her and Zane were chasing Garroth.
"Laur Laur! Hewp mee!!" Garroth screams.
I starts running by him as we throw the ball between us.
Then Zaylar falls over and starts crying.
We all stop and go to her.
Zane was first by her.
She holds on to her knee.
"I got an ouchy!" She cries.
Garroth puts down the ball and looks at her knee.
She shifts into a pup and gets the ball and starts bolting it to the pool.
"Hay!" Me and Garroth yell.
She jumps in.
She was the only one who could swim out of all of us.
She shifts back to human form.
"Nah, na na nah na!" She calls kicking her little legs to stay up.
She got tired very quickly and me and Garroth had to get her out the pool before our moms saw.
We wrapped her in a towel and I hugged her.
"Tank youw Laur Laur" she says.

I let Zaylar go.
"No problem." I say.
She goes up to her room.
I watch her up the stairs and then tidy up.
I go back to mine and Garroth's room.
He was asleep on his bed and I went on the air mattress on the floor and thought about our time as kids.
Things were so much simpler then...
