You're Here? Oh, WOW!

I spent the next couple of days getting used to my new eternity.

My Seth.

I had gotten more comfortable thinking of him that way. It was funny actually. I think I hit my head and it fixed my issues.

Jacob says I'm just a bitch realizing it's not going to get any better.

Yeah, that's probably true too.

Jennie spent her whole day teasing me yesterday, something about "aw you are brainwashed!" But, I guess I am. Quil and Embry were pretty pissed when they ran patrol with me last night because of all of my thoughts.

Embry told me to stop running because I technically didn't even belong to the pack, I belonged to a herd.

Quil told me to please stop kissing Seth and return to my old ways, he liked ranting better.

I laughed and told them to get over it.

I'm a new person…I think.

Well, I was until this morning when a familiar face galloped up to me in a lathered sweat.

***

"Jennie?!" I jumped as a somewhat short, brown horse came up to me when I exited Jake's house this morning.

Jacob came racing out. "What's wrong?!"

"Jennie, Jennie! Calm down!" I pleaded, if something was wrong I needed to know it. She reared again and shrunk down to human, draped in Aeropastale clothes I had never noticed in her closet.

"Shea! Aiden's on his way here!" She gasped for air. Then she calmed down…sort of.

"WHAT?!" I screeched. This couldn't be happening! I just got used to Seth and he was going to be ripped out of my life?!

"It's okay." Jacob told both of us.

"He'll be here in…five." Jennie estimated. "I tripped him up when I accidentally kicked mud into his face in Utah."

"Nice." I smiled despite myself.

"Seth is on his way here anyways, we'll just explain what happened." Jacob spoke calmly.

I nodded.

Just on cue, Seth pulled up. Jennie waved.

"Heya!" She smiled, "I hear you've been hitting on my cousin!"

Seth ruffled her hair as he past.

"Yeah, not cool." She rolled her eyes and tried to get it back to normal.

"What's the matter?" He gazed into my eyes.

That was something I would never get used to.

"Aiden is coming." I smiled weakly.

He nodded.

A chestnut galloped through the trees, you could see his coat was streaked with mud, especially his face.

He came upon us, fire in his eyes, reared up (my family adores a grand enterance) and shrunk down as Jennie had.

"Can your whole herd do that?" Jacob asked incredulously.

"No, Eric can't. Only our family shifts into clothes." I answered without breaking eye contact with Aiden.

Aiden was forced to look down; I was still superior to him even though I had given up my place as alpha.

When he looked back up he saw Seth's arm around my waist.

"What the hell are you doing?" Aiden growled.

"She's mine!" Seth shot back.

"This is quite flattering, really." I smiled sarcastically, "But I want to hear his reason for coming here first."

"Everyone wants you home." Aiden spoke simply.

"I can't comply with that wish." I frowned.

Another car drove up, Leah. Good, she'd help me more than the others could. I watched her out of the corner of my ye as she got out of the car.

"Why not?" Aiden didn't change his expression.

Leah looked up and froze.

Aiden turned behind him.

"That's why." I muttered.
