I-I wanted to tell you. You have to believe me! If-if you w-would give me a chance to explain!" My voice cracked more times than accountable, but I didn't care. I felt my only friend slipping away and it hurt more than I expected. He's just a friend, a very close friend but a friend. I shouldn't be feeling this upset about it. So why do I?

"Just tell me-" He clutched my hands tighter and highered them so I looked in his eyes, "-is it true, the legend, is it true?" His fear shook through him- literally- and I couldn't bare to see him that way.

"I am the child, but-" My voice was back to stern and emotionless but inside I was breaking. Suddenly, I felt something warm on my lips, Wyatt had suddenly kissed me. It took a while for me to realise, by then he was pulling away thinking he did something wrong, but I summed up the courage and kissed him back. Prodigious, phenomenal, peerless. We had been transported to a place with a meteor shower in the northern lights and fireworks of reds, pinks and purples exploded. The feeling was so electric sparks seemed to fly as he placed a hand on my cheek and on my back. Both mine draped round his neck to deepen the kiss. I can't find any words to tell what the sensation felt like, it was just so...so... See I can't do it! It's too perfect and blissful for a single word in the English language to explain. However, it didn't feel right, it was full of passions and love, but it felt like a goodbye.

He was the first to pull away and by pull away I mean fully detach himself from my arms entirely. I felt empty and cold once his touch left my sensations. I knew it was too good to be true. "You should go." Wyatt put his weight on the counter carved from Rock and for the first time, he looked down and she looked where his eyes would be if they were up.
"Wyatt please listen to me!" Now I couldn't keep tears from flowing, however, I tried holding them back the best I could. Only a few left my eyes, but if I let them free fountains would fall.

"About what Whitney? About how you betrayed your pack our kind! On how you betrayed your parents by fighting for them?" At the moment he was shouting in my direction.

"Just Listen!" I yelled louder and pushed him that sent him into a shock allowing me to speak, "IT'S NOT TRUE!" my voice cracked from my sheer tonality. "It's not true." I banged on his chest lightly. I broke completely in his arms... the one thing I didn't want anyone to know about got out. All because I was too caring, too curious and I couldn't leave it alone. That's my hamartia (means Tragic flaw), that I care more than I probably should.

"M-my parents were killed by the settlers. And I-I was sent on a m-misson to spy on them-" my crying got heavier. Eventually, he let his guard down and wrapped his arms fully around my sunken body so my head was on his chest. "The pack wanted to start a war! After seeing kids running around... seeing how we aren't that different... I couldn't do it!" My back was against the wall, I can't remember how I got there, "The Elders told me to try and live like them, and I actually enjoyed it. So I told the settlers about their planned attack, I asked for me to speak for them! I asked for peace!" There were no signs of me calming down, no signs of me stopping, but it slowed the longer Wyatt held me close.

"I need to go! The-The Elders will kill me. I can't stay. I can't stay." I scrambled to my feet frantically looking for my jacket.
"Ulv, stay-" he grabbed my arm and held my jacket back out of reach.

(Ulv is Norwegian for Wolf.)

"No Wy I can't. It-it was nice knowing you, really. I-I like you. Like I really, genuinely like you." I kissed him this time. Just like before, it was magical, instantly it made my senses tingle and my heart flutter, but I knew this had to be the last time. "Goodbye, Wyatt." I said and left like that.

It was harder than I ever thought it would be. As if my heart was split in two it was every step wanting to send me back. The magnet pulling me to him suddenly became repelling, and I walked out. "I love you." Was the words I muttered in a breathe, hoping he didn't hear.

The happiest I've been in forty years... is the day I lost everything...
