She loved Scott, there was no doubt in her mind about that, she would always love him. But so much had happened she just didn't know how to handle all of it anymore. She was strong but there was only so much she could take before she broke. Their lives were constantly in danger, people were dying, including her mom, and they never knew what they were going to have to face next.

These and so many other thoughts ran through her head as she sat next to Scott on her bed. She knew what she had to say but she didn't know if she had the strength to do it. Just him being here made her question her decision and the way he was caressing her hand made her heart want to break in two. He was always so caring putting other's needs before his own.

This is why this decision was so hard and she knew it would hurt more than anything she had experienced so far. But she also knew it would hurt Scott and that made it that much worse. She finally got the courage to speak and the only words that would come out were, "I'm sorry." She couldn't even look at him because she didn't want to see the look on his face but she was surprised at what he had to say back.

"You don't have to be sorry."

He continued to hold her hand and rub his thumb back and forth over her hand. He was trying to let her off easy but she wanted him to get mad, it would make it easier for her.

"I do. I have to. For what I did and for what I said. For everything, especially for what I have to do now."

Even as she said it she knew it wasn't what she really wanted what she really wanted was to curl up right next to him and feel the warmth radiate off of his body. Feel his arms around her pulling her as close to him as possible and protecting her from anything and everything. She knew he would let her even though he knew she was trying to break up with him. Scott would comfort her and love her no matter what. She could feel his eyes on her and it made it that much harder to continue.

"It's ok."

"No it's not."

"Yes it is."

"Scott I'm trying to break up with you."

"I know and it's ok."

She didn't think he would just give up this easy and she didn't know if this hurt worse than if he would have gotten angry with her. She didn't know if she wanted him to fight her on this but she definitely didn't want him to be ok with it.

"How is that ok?"

He continued to just look at her with so much love and she couldn't understand why he was saying this. She knew he loved her why didn't he care if they broke up.

"Because I can wait."

He said it with such confidence that Allison had to pause for a second. But she couldn't make him wait for her, she wanted him to move on with his life and she would try to do the same. But even as she thought it she knew she wouldn't be able to but she wanted to give Scott the chance to.

"I can't make you wait for me, I'm not going to make you do that."

"You don't have to because I know we're going to be together."

His smile almost brought her to tears because he still was so optimistic even while she broke up with him. Her eyes were already filling with tears and it was hard to look him in the eye because she believed what he said but she also didn't want to ruin his life.

"There's no such thing as fate."

Scott just shrugged and said, "there's no such thing as werewolves."

Scott McCall was the only person who could make her smile at her lowest moments and this situation was no different. But then everything came rushing back and tears were running down her face as she looked up at Scott again. He looked at her and wiped a tear that was coming down her cheek and than caressed her chin and moved closer to her. She closed the rest of the distance between them and connected their lips.

His lips felt so soft against hers and for a second she let herself forget that she was breaking up with him. Their lips had always fit so perfectly together as if they were always meant to be and she savored the warmth that his lips brought to hers. She almost got lost in the kiss but finally pulled back knowing that if she didn't she would change her mind.

She could see the hurt in Scott's face but he gave her her space. She looked down not wanting him to see her cry and she felt his hand leave her leg as he got up to leave. She watched him walked toward the door wanting more than anything to go after him.

He walked past her dad and she knew that it was over. Her dad came and sat by her side as she curled up next to him and cried. She had just broken up with the love of her life and it wasn't even anything that he did. Had she just made a big mistake, she could already feel his absence and it hurt more than anything. She was so lost in her thoughts that she didn't even hear her dad speak.

"Allison?"

"Yeah sorry."

"I think you should get some rest."

"I think you're right."

She crawled to the top of her bed and pulled the covers up. Her dad kissed her forehead, turned out her light and she was left in the darkness, with the thought and feeling that she had just made the biggest mistake of her life.

She knew she wouldn't be able to sleep but she just lay there staring at the ceiling as tears streamed down her face. She didn't even realize she was still crying. She loved Scott and he loved her and she had added too many other things to their relationship. The only thing that mattered was that they loved each other and she made it about so much more. They were better together and she knew that know and she had to tell him she had made a mistake.

That's it. She knew she had made a mistake and she was going to fix it, tonight. She quickly put on some shoes and headed straight for the window. She climbed out and onto the roof and quickly climbed down. She was going to have to walk because she didn't want her dad finding out. So she headed down the street to Scott's house.

She was almost half way there when she heard howling. It wasn't just one werewolf it was a lot and they were getting closer. She knew it wasn't Scott but she needed to see what it was. Luckily she had grabbed a knife before leaving just in case, so she headed towards the woods. She knew this was probably stupid but she couldn't go without knowing who or what was out there.

It was so dark and she could barely see two feet in front of her but the sounds were getting closer and closer. She moved quickly and quietly not wanting whoever was out there to know she was there. She saw figures out in the distance and as soon as she leaned in to get a closer look someone grabbed her from behind and covered her mouth before she could scream.
