My aunt wasn’t in as usual but the thought of just leaving her made me feel guilty. I knew she had never liked me and to be honest I never liked her much either but she was the only thing I had left of my family.
“I’ll wait here,” Cole happily said giving me a glowing smile at least he was happy.
I looked at him for a moment and smiled back as I hopped out the car and rushed towards my front door.
I went upstairs to my room and found the nearest suitcase, I couldn’t pack all my stuff or my Aunt would get suspicious so I packed the things that mattered.
For someone who doesn’t want to move in with him, you seem excited. I heard my wolf said and I growled at her to shut up. It was her fault that I had said yes.
Don’t hate on me, you see soon enough what I did was for both of us and for the better, I growled at her again and told her to shut up but somewhere inside me I couldn’t budge the feeling that she knew something I didn’t.
I paused as I was about to zip my suitcase up and say goodbye to this house forever. I looked at my bedside table and looked at a photo with me and my family. A tear leaked through my eyes at the memory.
Why couldn’t things just stay the way they were? I asked myself. Gently I picked up the photo like it would break if I handled it the wrong way.
I let my finger brush over my brother’s and sister’s faces. They shouldn’t of died it was just so wrong. They were so young.
I blinked back a tear and placed the photo in my suitcase and zipped it up as I took a hasty breathe.
I wheeled it out of the house to find Cole standing by the boot of the car fiddling around with his keys.
I stopped in my tracks as I watched him with a distant look on my face. I didn’t know how long I hadn’t realised but as I watched him something clicked.
He was the one I wanted to stay with. No matter how much I fought it, it was no use. I didn’t even think I wanted to fight it anymore.
He snapped his head up to look at me with a cheeky grin on his face. I rolled my eyes at him which made him smile even more and rushed up to my side and took my suitcase.
“Thank you,” I told him giving him a little curtsy. He chuckled.
“Anytime, my lady,” He teased picking up my hand sending tingles down my body and placed his soft lips upon my knuckles.
I blushed and he chuckled again while I got into his car. He slammed the boot of the car shut and slid into the driver’s seat.
He paused studding me and I looked at him with wonder. “You ready?” He asked and I gazing longingly out the window. Maybe I was going to miss this place? But I could feel myself grinning.
“Yes,” I said and he roared his car to life.
We got to his house. (Well I guess our house) and Cole got out quickly getting my suitcase out for me and unlocked the door as I following behind.
But when I entered the house, I felt something weird building up inside of me. I felt safe and .. I stopped. I felt at home.
My wolf howled in joy as if she thought that I had just figured it out.
I stood staring around the house; I had never thought I would find a place after my family died that I could truly call home. My eyes welled up a little at the thought of my family but for once they weren’t sad tears they were tears of joy.
