Well, I've decided to update some more. If some of you noticed, I accidentally put out the wrong chapter!

I forgot to put the one before this chapter out! Sorry for the confusion!

KYLIE

I wanted to ask where Colin was.

He was no where to be found and I was wondering where he was. Brooke and Will made a point of not mentioning anything of him either.

Ever since Brooke brought me back from the forest, I'd been on edge. I would repeatedly stop in front of a window facing the woods and just stare out it. I can't say if I was looking for Mickey or for answers but they sure as heck weren't coming to me anyways. Brooke would sometimes catch me.

For instance, like now.

"Kylie, what's bothering you?"

I jerked back from the window, rubbing my forehead with the sleeve of my sweater. The warm smell of dinner wafted from the dining room. Will and Brooke had prepared dinner from the meager collection of cans from the pantry and from the old cook book Brown had bought ages ago. Dinner was mainly when we were going to have a pow wow on what to do about Mickey.

"Nothing," I lied.

"Ok, let me put it this way. Tell me or I'm throwing you out again." Brooke said with her hands on her hips. I just stared at her and smiled.

"It's nothing concerning," I told her. She frowned but didn't press me anymore, although I could tell it was going to be eating at her later. Instead, she led me to the dinning room where Will was setting the plates and cutlery down. He broke into a broad smile when he saw Brooke. I sighed.

"Where's Colin?" Brooke slowly looked at me and Will seemed to ignore me. Brooke bit her lip and looked at Will. They seemed to be communicating through glances.

"Kylie... Colin stormed out of the house when Brown came back without you. We haven't seen him since then. I'm sorry Kylie..." I felt my stomach tighten. Colin probably still thought I was a traitor. He had every reason to think I was anyways. Brooke and Will thought so when they finally caught me.

But I had to solve this on my own. Besides this wasn't any of his concern anyways. The conflict with Mickey and the pack had nothing to do with him. He had the ability to shut it all out and pretend that this was all a dream.

Suddenly, from the back porch a low growling began to sound. Soft at first until it began to increase until it was howling. Without even having to sniff the air I knew it was Mickey. I stood stalk stiff while Brooke and Will listened wide eyed.

"Kylie, what are we going to do?" Brooke whispered. "Mickey's here."

"The only thing I can do," I said, moving towards the living room. Brooke grabbed my arm and looked at me with wide eyes.

"No, Kylie, I won't let you shift again. We need you here, I need you, we can deal with Mickey together, but later," she said with earnest eyes. I heard Will start to slowly make his way towards us. I shook my head.

"Brooke," I said gently. "I can hardly keep a straight head as a wolf as it is. If I can persuade Mickey to let the whole thing go..." I trailed off because that was when Colin walked in the front door.

Colin's blue eyes immediately took in the scene. He stood still, clutching a book in his right hand while his left hand was frozen in the process of removing his scarf.

"Kylie," he whispered. I ran through the situation in my head, trying to assess my situation.

1. Mickey was outside (how the heck can he keep a straight head enough to track me and keep on to the thought of eliminating the humans?) possibly wanting to kill everyone but me.

2. Colin walked in (UBER AWKWARD) mainly because he doesn't know if I'm good or bad yet (And as a guy, he's seen me NAKED so many times).

3. Brooke and Will are confused and lost since I'm basically a double spy.

Why is my life so complicated?

"Colin, I have to go now but Brooke and Will will," I paused just to smile at the similar words. However my friends weren't in a humorous mood at the moment. Colin just stared at me with sad eyes. I didn't know that he could make those kinds of eyes. "... Explain everything. Mickey's here and I have to go, I'm really sorry!" I pulled away from Brooke's grasp and literally ran out the back door, rushing past the black wolf who leapt back in surprise. I stopped at the edge of the trees to look back. Colin was standing alone on the back porch while Brooke and Will stood at the window. All of them had faces of worry and disapproval. The black wolf stood staring at me, it's eyes blazing with accusations.

I was betraying my friends again. I was going to lose everything again.

"I'm sorry," I called over the wind but the last syllable was cut off with a choke as I fell, my skin melting and shifting once again.

COLIN

I had to restrain myself. I had to make sure I didn't loose my cool about Kylie suddenly appearing and the disappearing again.

I watched her run away from us. From me. And back to the psychotic wolf who possibly had a crush on the girl who I think I like.

Why her?

Of all girls? Why Kylie? I could've gone for someone normal. Someone with enough smarts not to wear super short shorts, tight skirts, and low cut shirts. Someone who was cheerful and dramatic at the same time. Someone who wasn't Kylie.

But that's just not how fate liked to work.

When I saw a silver wolf timidly emerge from the trees, those deep brown eyes didn't go to the wolf's companion.

They went to me.

Almost as if they were trying to convey a message. I'm sorry, I trust you, but I really need to try to solve this on my own. So please wait a bit until I can return to you.

And then, the wolves were gone.

Will and Brooke stayed inside but they were looking out the window. I heard Brooke break into tears. But i just stayed outside. I waited and waited.

I can't say what I was waiting for but I still waited until my mother found me from the neighboring porch and called me back.

KYLIE

Thoughts of killing the humans standing near the house hit me as soon as I shifted. The black wolf growled at me and stepped menacingly towards me as soon as we'd fled from the edge of human dens.

Slowly, I backed down, flattening my ears, tucking my tail and bowing my head. But the black wolf was not happy.

Instead of accepting my surrender, he suddenly pounced on me, bitting and scratching at my sides. He nipped my ears and battered my sides. Pain exploded from my back right paw and on my left shoulder. But I did nothing to stop him. Since when had I become so weak and fearful?

Eventually he stopped, huffed and walked away. I limped after him timidly until we got back to the pack. The pack nuzzled me, licking my wounds that had begun to bleed. We settled in for the night, all tangled with each other.

The black wolf sat alone over the pack. He looked really lonely and sad. Why did I care about the alpha who attacked me?

COLIN

That night, I dreamed of Kylie.

It started at school. I sat up from my desk, confused with my surroundings. The bell had just rung and everyone scattered until everything was silent. Even the teacher had left. The high sun indicated that school had just ended.

"Sleeping in class, Colin? That's no good," a voice called from ahead of me. A girl with short black hair sat a few rows a head of me and two to the side. Her back was to me. It looked like she was writing a few more things down in her notebook until she closed it and turned around, smiling at me.

Kylie smiled warmly at me. She got up and walked over plopping into the chair next to me. I stared at her mesmerized. It had been so long since Kylie was in school that I'd forgotten that she even went to my school.

"You never sleep in class, Colin. What's up? Something bothering you?" Kylie asked. Her smile seemed too warm to be normal and for a second I wondered if this was actually the Kylie I knew currently or if this was how I wanted Kylie to be in real life.

"You should know," I said, slightly sulking. I turned away from her. She smiled instead though.

"Would you really like it, like me, if i was normal?" Kylie whispered. I jerked my head up. Of course the figment of Kylie made from my imagination would know that I liked her. I sighed.

"No..." I reluctantly said. I realized that Kylie wouldn't be Kylie since she wasn't a werewolf. "I suppose not..."

"Then what's the problem?" she said, amused at my turmoil. "If it isn't that fact that I'm different from humans, what is it?" I had no answer for her.

"Because... I feel like you betrayed me?" I guessed.

"Didn't I say that Brooke and Will would explain?" Kylie laughed. "Don't worry, I'll fix everything myself, that way we can all live peacefully." There she went again, doing things on her own. Didn't she know that the reason she had friends was to rely on them and have their help?

"But I don't want to lose you," I protested. Not that I had her to begin with though. "I don't want to lose the chance to be with you more." I corrected myself.

"Don't worry," Kylie said. She pulled my face closer to hers. With fingers embedded in my hair, she kissed me softly on my nose. I felt my blush spreading across my cheeks but I wasn't disliking the feeling. My heart thumped loudly in my chest. "I'll be gone for a little bit but just wait alright? Please wait." She looked almost desperate but instead just pulled me closer. I knew that she was going to kiss me because I could feel her hot breath on my face, I felt her racing heart through her fingers and I wanted it too.

But then I was dragged back to reality. I woke in my dark bedroom. The night was heavy and I shivered. This was a night only for the lonely.

From the woods, a lone wolf cried to the moon. I wonder if it was Kylie.

Please Rnr! It means A LOT!
