Lydia and I had spent all night baking. Cupcakes, pies, and some casserole dishes. Anything to keep our minds that in the morning we bury our friend. Finally, Lydia called it. So we packed up what we could and I headed home. I had something I had been avoiding for a while now and I decided to turn around to go to his apartment.

He was up like I thought he would be drinking whiskey. He didn't even look at me when I walked in. He just stood there clenching his fist and taking a drink.

"I'm sorry," I told him.

The glass shattered in his hands "I thought we were going to try," He growled.

I bit my lip trying not to cry "I didn't mean to hurt you,"

He finally turned around crossing his arms and leveling me with a glare. He just sat there. Then he sighed "I guess I can't blame you. I knew you were in love with Derek. Plus now you know I have a daughter who is slightly older than you. That would make any relationship hard,"

"I'm still sorry, Peter,"

He ground his teeth for a second and then walked to me. He put one hand on my cheek. I thought he would kiss me one more time but instead, his hand went around to the back of my neck pulling me into a hug "I'll miss you,"

"I'm not going anywhere, neither are you. We're still friends whether you like it or not,"

He smiled tersely "I would expect no less,"

"Do you want me to stay and we can talk?"

"No, I think I need to be alone," I nodded and walked away only pausing before I closed the door. He looked alright, standing at the window and looking up at the moon. I needed him to be okay.

I walked into Derek's loft resetting the alarm. Derek came out of his room without his shirt on. "Sorry I woke you up,"

He shrugged crossing his arms, very much reminding me of who I just left "You smell like Peter," he told me keeping his face blank.

That made me smile which confused him "I made sure he knew we were together," I told him then looked at him sternly "We are together, right?"

I swore he turned pink "I mean if that's what you want,"

"Yeah, I would say we've been dancing around it too much already,"

He pursed his lips and nodded, stepping closer "I guess the only thing left to do now is getting you to bed," He lifted me easily making me laugh as he threw me over his shoulder.

I only ended up getting a few hours of actual sleep. He woke me up bright and early with a kiss "The memorial starts in a couple of hours," he told me pausing to kiss me again "And as much as I like what you're wearing, I would rather not everyone see you like this," I giggled as I pulled him back to me and wrapped my very naked legs back around him.

He groaned when I finally untangled myself from him. I threw on one of his shirts and pulled my pants up. I pulled my boots on and let him kiss me as I walked out of the door. Letting him know I would see him there.

The service was beautiful, almost the whole school showed up. Most of the pack gave speeches honoring her. Ally was such a wonderful person, I felt bad that I had been so angry at her. I was so happy that we made up in the end. I may not have been able to save her life but it did give her a few more minutes. Minutes she was able to use to say goodbye to all of her favorite people. Her dad, Scott, Isaac, and Lydia all got to tell her how much they loved her. I wish I had been able to say the same.

I looked around at the people who surrounded us and I promised myself I would tell them I appreciate them more.

Once we said all that we needed to her Isaac and I left with our family. His stuff had been brought back to our house the last few days, our spare room turned into his own. We all painted it his favorite shade of green together and bonded as a family.

"I don't know if this is the time to tell you but…I'm leaving with Chris," Isaac told us, pausing before we got in the car "To France," We all were stunned. "It's just when Allison died, Chris and I just had each other. I was already doing terrible because I thought Arielle was dead," He told us "I think this would be a good chance for us to heal,"

We all looked at each other and agreed, even if it hurt. We had to let him go.
