I woke up un the dark living room with the light shining in from the kitchen. 'What the hell happened, my head felt a little a hazy as I tried to gather my thoughts. I remember sitting on the couch ready for an intruder-maybe? Then feeling relaxed and dosing off.' I was brought out of my thoughts when I started to hear people whispering. "Who and what are you Amber" I heard my moms voice say with so much authority. What the hell is going on I thought.
"What do you mean Mrs. Stanley?" I stood up from the couch making my way towards the kitchen about to confront them while they were still talking, but then stopped when I heard mom ask Amber again.
"Amber I saw your eyes glow yellow, my mates eyes used to glow yellow."
"Mrs Stanley, y-you know about our kind? About mates and, and w-werewolves?" Is Amber stuttering right now?
"Yes Amber but," she paused for a second before answering, "that was a really long time ago. Are you really Grays friend-can I trust you with my daughter?"
"Of course I am Mrs. Stanley!"
"Okay, thank you. Amber, she doesn't know anything about her father, I would like to keep it that way, for now."
I was really confused as to what was really going on and what they were talking about. "Gray, sweetie is that you?" Damn it, caught. I walked from behind the opening. 'Hi mom what's going on' I asked. She looked at me and darted her eyes back to Amber, "nothing sweetie we were just waiting for you to wake up sleepy head. But someone is on their way to come pick Amber up soon." Okay cool, what were you guys talking about before I came in? "Oh nothing much just talking about our favorite animals and what not."
I looked to Amber "oh, y-yeah my favorite animal is a wolf I was telling your mom and we were talking about how wolves find, umm, love? Uh-also yup I was telling her about uh the research I did and stuff?" Oh, speaking of wolves when our car broke down I swear I saw wolves in the middle of the road. I saw Ambers eyes widen at my statement and my moms body go stiff not even breathing. Just when I was about to continue to describe what O saw the doorbell rang. "Oh I'll get that" came my moms voice and she scurried out of the kitchen about to answer the door and Amber hot on her tail following her out.
I begrudgingly followed them out of the kitchen and through the living room towards the front door where I saw Chase, Ambers boyfriend if I remembered correctly. Hello Mrs. Stanley, my name is Chase and I'm here to get Amber and take her home. "Hello Chase, it's very nice to meet you, but does her parents know you're here to get her. I'm not saying I don't trust you I just want to make sure Amber will be safe." Chase looked taken aback by that but quickly brushed it off. "Oh yes Mrs. Stanley Chase is my um," she looked up at my mother before continuing "boyfriend you know- my special friend."
My mother looked at Chase and gave him a soft smile. "I apologize Chase I just wanted to make sure. Is it just you two going home together or is someone else here as well" again Chase looked taken back by mothers question but recovered quickly. "Just us Mrs. S, we'll be fine they both smiled and said their goodbyes before heading to Chases car and driving off. My mother shut the door, switching the latch and turning the lock as well as turning the security alarm on. She always did this at night saying that our safety was her number one priority.
Hey mom I think I'm gonna grab a shower and head to bed, today has been a little weird for me. "Okay sweetie I'm going to stay a bit longer but you go on to bed and get some rest, you still have school tomorrow." I made my way over to where my mom was standing and gave her a kiss goodnight before turning to make way up the stairs. When I finally got to the top of the stairs I went straight to the bathroom and started the water so that it come warm up.
While the water started I went ahead and started to discard my clothes and throw it into the hamper. As soon as I felt the water and was happy with the temperature I slowly stepped into the glass shower and bent down to sit on the heated tiled floor right under the spray of the water letting it flow down on me. My mind felt like it was going 100 miles per minute. There was the questions from my mom and Amber. The wolves I saw near the edge of the woods and then that big guy that sent electricity through me.
After awhile of just sitting in the shower and relaxing under the water I felt it time to finally get up and finish my shower. I got up and finish what I needed to in the shower before getting out and drying myself off. I never really bring clothes to shower because it's always been just me and my mom so I just got my towel wrapped around my body and headed to my room. When I stepped in I made my towards my closet I got my sleeping dress out and threw it out letting the towel that was once wrapped around my body hit the floor. I stepped back out into my room and noticed that the door that leads into the woods were open

I made way to the doors and was about to shut it when I noticed two pairs of glowing eyes staring at me. That sensible thing in me told me to shut the damn doors lock it and pull down the blinds. But I couldn't, or I didn't want to. Either way I was being stupid. After a few minutes of trying to adjust my eyes to the darkness of the woods I couldn't see what it was so I waived gave it a small wave before shutting and locking the door and making my way towards my bed. I opened the covers , quickly getting under the comforter and instantly drifted off to sleep.
