The gift my brother got me. I completely forgot about it. "I wont" i tell her.

"I have to go" She says before leaving. I was happy she was hear to celebrate with us. But it felt off that my brother wasnt with her.

I decide to wait for everyone to leave to open my brothers present. I didnt know how i would react and I didnt want everyone to see it.

"Riley I will call you tommorow" Logan says. He pulled me to his chest hugging me tight. I relax taking in his scent. He kisses me on the cheek and lets go. Him Ashley and Alex leave with a simple wave.

I make my way back to my room where i had left the present my brother gave me, I take a deep breath and open it. The first thing i come accrossed is a letter.

I open it to reveal Logan standing there with his hands stuffed in his pockets.“Hey are you ready to go” he asks as I step out.“As ready as I’ll ever be” I say following him to his car.We get in and the ride is a comfortable silent. Once we get to there pack house I feel like I’m going to throw up. But I know it’s just my nerves. “Breathe everything will be ok” Logan says as he opens my door.

Once I got to the clearing I striped of my clothing and shifting. It was starting to become easier and less painful. I started to sparingly feeling the wind blowing through my fur. I reached a small creek and decided this is where I will stop.I lay down on my stomach and just enjoy the sound of the creek. It didn’t take long for me to notice I wasn’t alone.
