+25 Bonus

Do you ever wake up and feel like you’re dreaming? Like everything that is happening to you can’t be real? That’s how I feel. If it wasn’t for the pain in my bones I don’t even think I’d believe any of this was real. It can’t be real, and yet, I can feel Liam’s warmth flowing through my body right now. A memory that I have tried to forget for six years comes rushing to me.

I run outside, the day after the talk with my mom, explaining we were humans amongst a werewolf pack. I’m so confused, has Liam always known? How did I not know about this? I run across the street and race through Liam’s front door. He’s not in the living room or kitchen, so I run upstairs to his bedroom. I still don’t find him so I run down to the game room. Where is he?

Liam’s mom calls to me, telling me he’s out back, so I rush out back. Once I get out there he’s with some of his other friends, Walker, Cole and Dallas. They’re sitting in a circle in the middle of the yard, seemingly having an intense conversation. I slow my run to a walk, when Liam notices me and turns around. He stands up and starts walking over to me, as his friends just stare at me. I’ve never been able to get close to the others, I’m not sure why. To me it’s always just been Liam and I, the rest of my friends have always come second to him.

Liam meets me half-way, but there’s a dimness in his eyes. “Liam, I…” He cuts me off, waving a hand in between us. “Amy, my mom said your mom explained everything to you yesterday.” I shake my head yes, and go to open my mouth again, but he stops me again. “This is all too complicated. It’s too much to be your friend anymore. I don’t think we should hang out anymore.” He says completely straight faced, his eyes emotionless. I’ve never seen him so serious before. “Liam.” I whisper, already feeling the tears burning my eyes. I don’t know what to say, so I look up at him, pleading with my eyes to explain. “It’s for the best, Amy. I’ll see you around.” With that he turns around and heads back to his friends. I look over at them, my mouth hanging open in shock, none of them showing any emotion.

He doesn’t want to be my friend anymore, because he’s a wolf and I’m a human. It’s too complicated for him? My brain goes blank as I turn around and walk slowly back through the house. Maybe if I go slow enough, he’ll stop me and tell me this is all a joke. I accidentally run into Julia on my way back through the house, my tears blurring my vision. “Sweetie?” I look up at her, her lips purse together and she looks up behind me. “I’ll talk to him. Just go home for now, sweetie.”

I open my eyes and look up, I’m laying on Liam’s chest as he sleeps soundly next to me. What makes things less complicated now? Why can they be my friend now? I’m still human, they’re still wolves, nothing has changed, except our ages. Which makes less sense, because he can find his mate. Why dance with me, all night, sleep in my bed, act like they care, when the circumstances are still the same?

I glance at the clock and see it’s already nine in the morning. I lift up, and as if a reflex Liam pulls me back down on top of him, tightly. A little too tightly that I take a sharp intake of breath when my ribs are squeezed a little to hard to Liam’s chest. He jumps up and lets me go. He has on a worried expression, “I’m so sorry. Are you okay?” He asks quickly, looking over my body for injuries. “I’m fine, just a little too much pressure on my ribs.” He seems to get angry with himself. “Stop. You were sleeping and I’m fine. You, however, are late for school. You need to go.” I start pushing him out of bed. My minds still reeling over my waking thoughts. I really just want to be alone for a little while, to think.

All the years we went without even talking and now he’s in my bed. I mean I know it wasn’t sexual or anything, but it’s still a pretty big change from where we were. Not to mention I wasn’t talking to them yesterday and now here he is. I didn’t even drink last night, I don’t know what I was thinking inviting him to stay with me. I don’t understand why after everything I’ve been through, why I can’t stay away from them. It’s like I literally can’t
