The Blue birds chirp in the sky out in the early morning of Jasper Park. The fresh breeze filled the air as animals were waking up from their dens. The dawn of day meant that the wedding was occurring, and the ceremony was today. It was Kate's big day and she wasn't looking forward to it. She knew if Humphrey was at the wedding, she would apologize to him. Kate and lily sat at the edge of the cliff looking down to the feilds where the wedding was being held. There were many wolves gathering, it is going to be a huge ceremony.
Kate's POV
"Lily, so how is Garth like?" I asked lily curiously. I knew that lily hanged out with Garth while I was gone.
Lily clenched her jaws and broke the pine cone. She took a few seconds before she responded.
"Oh you know, he's amazing. He's just perfect marry material. You know big, strong... and perfect" lily asked softly looking away. I noticed that her hair wasn't pulled back.
"Lily you didn't put your fur back" I asked.
"I know" she scolded her hair back to normal and walked in the den. Before I could respond back I heard someone coming up the hill of the den. It was salty.
"Salty?" I asked surprised. Wondering why he's not at the wedding.
"Kate I want to talk to you about something." He says as he's breathing hard. He sounds scared, this better not be about Humphrey. My Humphrey.
"What wrong? What's this about?" I ask him.
"Humphrey, Humphrey left Jasper Park early this morning" he says.
I couldn't believe it. My best friend, the friend I loved my whole life was leaving. And it was all because of me. It was all my fault. I felt a little tears coming down my cheek. I didn't want to start bawling out since Salty was here. I could also tell that Salty was sad.
"W-why did he leave?" I managed to spit out
"No clue, ever since he came back he has been really bothered by you getting married" he says
"If only I could've told him something" I say as I was about To run in the den.
"Kate wait, he told me to tell you something" salty shouts back.
I turn around and I face him. "What is it?"
He took a deep breath. "Humphrey told me that he loves you"
I was shocked. My best friend loved me this whole time? I knew He was close with me but I never knew it was that close. The truth is I loved him, I was just too afraid to admit, not I feel ashamed. I have chosen pack law over my best friend, and now he's gone.
I ran in the den to my parents, they had confused looks on their faces.
"Kate, what's wrong dear?" My mother asks.
"Is this about the marriage, yea it can be hard" my father adds.
"No this is nothing about the marriage, Humphrey left Jasper Park and it's all my fault!" I started to cry out.
"Oh honey is it's your fault" they say as they give me a hug.
"Guys, the truth is I love Humphrey. And I'm gonna go after him." I honestly don't care what they say, they won't stop me from going to find Humphrey.
My parents were shocked. They looked at each other and back to me. They all knew I was close to Humphrey, but they never knew I loved him so much.
"Well i dont know Kate. You can't just call the wedding off" My father says.
"Who's calling the wedding off!" Tony came barging in.
"Kate won't get married to your son. She will be going after here true love." My mother says.
"What! You know what pack law says, you will marry my son or-" tony didn't finish.
"Dad! I am in love with lily. And I'm calling the wedding off and you can do anything about it" Garth says in his fathers face. I never knew lily was so attached to Garth. This whole time I was gone lily and Garth were bonding with each other.
"Fine, you can have lily, but Kate cant go alone on the journey, she never knows what might be out there." Tony says.
"No I can do it. And I'm doing this for Humphrey because I love him. All my training and hard work leads to this. It is my fault that he's gone, and I'm going to get him back" I stood up as everybody listened.
"Ok kate, tommorow at Early day you will go find him." My father says.
They called the wedding off, eventually everybody in the pack heard about Humphrey leaving. His Omega friends were depressed. He was the only one that cheered them up, and seeing your best friend your whole life leave you is one of the worst feelings ever.
The next day..
I'm ready to leave the pack to find Humphrey. Who knows what I might see out there, maybe other wolves or possibly humans. To be honest I'm pretty terrified, but for Humphrey as an Omega he might be dying out there all alone.
"Bring your true love back, he's missing you" My mother says as she kisses my cheek
"I love you" I say as I turn around and head to the tracks. I get a scent of Humphrey, instead of going back south to Sawtooth national park, he heads up north towards the mountains. My journey begins.
