A month had gone by and life had started to get easier. First off I got over my home sickness. I realized that this is where I was going to stay until I graduated from High School, and possibly longer. I got over missing Jasper and my friends. Though I still love each and every one of them I just let them go.
School was also starting to get easier for me. After about a week I finally got into a normal routine and it made school that much easier. I got to say though, big city schools are a lot tougher then small town ones. It seems as though the teachers are stricter and they go through all the stuffed really quickly. But like I said, I've gotten used to it, for the most part.
Probably the most important thing that made my life easier was the friends I had gained in the first couple days of first being there. Reese and I are basically best friends. He reminded me a lot about McCabe. Not a shocker since he's one of his biggest role model.
We were almost always hanging out and would just talk and mess around with each other. He is really funny and is super fun to be around. He isn't graphic when it comes to his language, nor is he very dirty minded(unlike Andy). He was just a god wolf, all in all, to he around.
Salty, Shakey and Mooch have become great friends as well. If I wasn't hanging a round with Reese for some reason then I was with these three. They were quite the diverse group. Shakey was the quiet one who usually didn't talk while on the other paw Salty did all of the talking. I think its actually impossible for him not to talk for more than five minutes. Mooch is kind of just there to keep things in line. It seemed he saved Salty more than a few times for when Salty talked to much, letting his mouth getting him in trouble.
The last of them was Ammy. She is also quite the wolf. She is definitely not the girly girls type. She was a tough, hell is type of a wolf who could knock you on your ass if she really wanted too. That's what made me like her. She didn't care about how anyone saw her. She was just fine with how she was. She was also with me most of the time while u hung out a round the others.
Even though I told her that I wasn't interested in dating anyone for quite some time, she seemed to take that as a challenge. I don't know if it is true or if my minds just messing with me, but I swear she is trying to get me to like her more so that I will date her.
She is persistent, I'll give her that. And even though she is really attractive and has a great personality, I'm just not going back on what I said to her. I am not ready, not now anyway.
another thing that had made things easier ,since the first day at least, is that I haven't seen much of Tucker lately. I see him around on occasion and I see him giving me evil glares from time to time, but other then that he keeps his distance. And that's just the way I want to keep it.
Lunch is easily the best time of the day. Not having to go to class and being able to hang around with your friends for an hour is great. But today was a little different. Reese wasn't here. It wasn't that weird, I thought. But the others say he hasn't missed a day of school in forever. They seemed to be genuinely worried about him.
I told them that they were worrying to much. He was probably just out sick or something.
That seemed to ease them a little, but not a whole lot. I got to hand it to them, these guys treat Reese very well. They are seriously really great friends and I don't think anything would ruin their friendship. Most of all, they seemed to be very protective of him. I wouldn't see why, it looks like he can handle himself just fine. Something about the way they acted was kind of familiar, yet I couldn't place my paw on what it was.
"Why are you guys so worried, is there something you're not telling me?" I questioned them.
They started to look very nervous when I asked that. Now I knew they were hiding something. But I didn't want to press them because it might be something very personal.
"You know what, nevermind I asked that."
When I said that their faces showed expression of pure relief. Was it really that bad? How bad could it be that they didn't want me knowing, and that it made them really nervous to talk about? Thus was going to be bothering me for awhile.
Everyone just kind of stood around nervously and nobody new what to say. Luckily one of the guys phone rang. Well, girls.
Ammy quickly reached into her pocket and brought out her phone. She looked at the number and quickly answered it.
"Reese, where are you? Are you ok?" She asked quickly.
I couldn't hear anything said on the other side of the phone, but Ammy seemed really concerned. They talked a little longer before Ammy said goodbye. She looked over to the others seriously and they just nodded in response. Then Ammy proceed to take off.
Then there was me in the background looking really confused. What the heck was going on here. I knew it wasn't my place to meddle in other people's life, but something very serious was going on here.
"What is going on here." I asked the three who were still here.
"Its better if we don't tell you. The only person who has that right is Reese." Mooch told me.
I nodded my head slowly, trying to comprehend everything. This whole thing was all so confusing. Yet, it seemed so familiar like I said earlier. I feel like I've been in this situation before, and there's only one big thing I remember that could cause a panic like this.
My eyes became wide with realization. I didn't know how I didn't see this earlier. I guess its harder to see than I thought. But I mean I've been through the same thing, so you'd think I would see it right away. I guess not.
I knew what I had to do. I understand that Ammy is a really good friend and friends help a lot in these kind of situations but it will help if someone who has been through the same thing talks to him.
I know where he lives, I've been there before. Reese and I hang out a lot. I have made up my mind. I'm going to go over to his house and I'm going to talk to him.
