Chresanto ran me through the forest real quick as we were both laughing and talking.

Earlier was CRAZY!

Three people died on the news possibly because of his father. Then Chres explained to me that his fathers family was murderous and they believed to be "better" than others because of their abilities to morph between man and wolf, so therefore, they felt like the only ones who should thrive on earth.

I found that a little bit disturbing, since he could've been killed me by now, as much as I walk through the woods.

"But like I said, don't walk through the woods unless your with me, ok?" He sternly said.

I nodded nervously as we continued to walk, since I was out of breath from running.

The Autumn breeze blew over my face as I pulled my shirt up some from the cold.

"You cold??" He asked.

I nodded as I felt my teeth chatter uncontrollably.

No then felt my body warm up instantly as his arm was around my waist.

"Why are you so damn warm all the time?" I questioned.

"It's a wolf thing." He laughed as his grip tightened once more.

Another question popped into my mind, but I didn't want to ask, considering it might be unanswerable.

"We'll.... What are your plans for when your father, you know, comes back?" I stuttered a bit.

"Honestly.... I don't know. And not knowing makes me sad and angry.. And confused. All I want is for life to change for the better." He mumbled. "I just want this weight to be lifted off of my shoulders."

I planted a kiss on his lips as I smiled at him.

"You'll get through. And I'll stay to watch you overcome all of this."

He grinned as we finally approached my house.

"Wanna come meet my mom, ya know, I met yours and she's been wondering what you look like."

I played with my jacket zippers as I waited for a response.

"Why not?"

I knocked on the door as my mom answered while embracing me in a hug.

"Hey Jake, and whos this?" She asked while looking at Chresanto.

"This is my boyfriend, the one I've been talking about." I smiled as Chres flashed his million dollar smile.

I saw his fangs poke through as I saw my mom gasp.

"He's one...." I heard her say under her breath.

"What?" I asked her.

She shook her head and ran her figers through her hair nervously.

"Its nothing. Come in, its cold." She warmly smiled.

We stepped in and took a seat on the living room couch while my mom followed along as Chres and my mother got to know each other.

"I love you already!" My mom laughed. "You seem like a good kid."

"Thanks." Chres said, as they both embraced each other in a hug.

I heard my mom mumble some more things while Chres finally got up.

"Bye Jacob." He kissed my lips as he walked towards the door, saying goodbye again, and eventually leaving.

"You like him?" I turned to start talkig to my mom.

"Yeah.... Hes sweet."

She patted my shoulder as she scurried up the stairs.

I arched my eye brow, but shrugged it off while following upstairs to my room.

I just need a shower, and sleep....

(Dream)

The same woman, that being Jacobs mother, has approached someone's doorstep.

She knocked on the door as she called out a name.

"Jacob?!" She smiled as she stood there waiting for someone to answer.

Minute after minute past as she noticed the door was unlocked?

"What?" Teresa questioned, stepping in only to see the house stripped bare.

"N-no..... No!" She cried out as she saw a single box worth of items in the middle of the floor.

"You promised you wouldn't leave! We're forever! Like you said!"

She kicked the box, sending it flying across the room.

Dropping down to the floor, she clutched her stomach?

I also noticed the ring on her finger.

"You left me.... With our child.."

(End Of Dream)

I woke up in a cold sweat, as curly hairs draped over my face.

Panting, I felt my chest going up and down.

"Shit!" I yelled, trying to calm myself down.

After a few minutes, the panting and wheezing went away as I recapped everything I pictured in my dream.

My mom, my dad leaving, and he left when she was pregnant..

With me.

"Why didn't she tell me this?" I muttered. "And to just let me envision it myself."

And I don't even know how I'm doing this! I'm not some fucking psychic medium shit!

And the ring? It still confuses me.
