"Okay, I knew your hair had emo tendencies, but your music?" Hope laughed.

"Shade thrown and caught. Give me that." Roman grabbed his phone from Hope. "Quit judging and lean in."

"No, give me that." She snatched from him.

I rolled my eyes at their flirting. Nicholas was glaring at Roman.

Hope shot me a smile. I moved closer for the picture. Nicholas finally looked away from Roman.

"I don't like pictures getting taken of me." Nicholas said.

I frowned. "Come on. Have some fun."

He sighed, but moved forward also. I gave him bunny ears, sticking my tongue out and crossing my eyes. Hope took the picture. She laughed.

"So cute." She handed the phone. "Look."

I took it, looking at it. I was the only one that acted weird. I noticed how Nicholas was staring at me with a smile and a look I didn't know.

"Our mom would kill us if she knew that we were taking selfies and driving. Though compared to binding my werewolf side, I'd just say it's a misdemeanor." Hope grinned.

"You nervous?" Roman questioned.

"My aunt Freya basically said that I'd regret it for the rest of my life. And from what I've read in my dad's journals, it's horrible. So, you know, actually kind of terrified." Hope said.

"Well, you said you feel like a freak. I don't know maybe this will help." Roman shrugged.

I gave him a look. If he really liked Hope, he wouldn't say she was a freak. He would tell her she wasn't.

"Still, its... its strange cutting out a part of yourself that you barely even know." Hope told him.

"So you won't miss it. Anyway, you'll still be you." Roman said.

"Doesn't matter, cause I'm doing it."

"You know, your mom should be proud of you."

"She is proud of Hope." I stated.

"That's weird." Hope muttered. "I think someone may be tracking me. Pull over. I-I need to be somewhere quiet."

Roman did as Hope wanted. She got out of car, walking away.

Roman's phone rang. "I'll be right back."

I watched curiously as he got out.

"Now its just us." Nicholas sighs.

I nodded. "I feel like something is coming. Something bad."

"I'll protect you." He smiled at me.

"Thanks for coming." I told him.

"I'll always come when you need me."

My eyes met his. It seemed like everything slowed down. We both began to lean in. I jumped away when Hope got in the car with Roman.

"Someone's definitely tracking us. I can cloak us, but... there's something else we got to do on the way." Hope glanced back at us nothing how Nicholas and I looked awkward. "Everything okay?"

"Yep. Never better." I lied.

She looked like she didn't believe but she looked away anyway.
