The letter

"Happy seventeenth birthday pumpkin I can't believe just how much you've grown. I still remember the time I held you in my arms, you were so fragile that I never wanted to let you go. But you got older and one day you'll be married with kids of your own. I hope you know that I love you so much I wish I could be there for your big day. There are Important things I must tell you...." I sighed whats so important you had to tell me over letter? I wonder and continued reading. "I don't know how to say this but you know about Werewolf's and Vampires..." I read books all the time about that kind of stuff of course I know about them but what's so important about this subject and why did you decide this will be the last thing you do on earth? I shake my head and continue reading "There's no easy way to say this but your a werewolf just like your mother and me and Toby will be one too. I didn't know how to tell you so me and your mom agreed to let you and Toby live normal lives. There are some things you need to know so read this carefully your mom will tell you anything you need to know but stay away from Cresent moon. Anything you do stay away from there and especially stay away from Aaron. Love Dad." I yelled "Mom explain this" soon enough mom came into the room she saw the letter and nodded "I will explain but you will calm down and wait till the movers are gone." I sighed I wanted to know right now why they have been hiding this from me my whole life.

"I just want to know why?" she sighed "We will talk about this after dinner." she says then leaves the room shutting the door behind her. I pace the room feeling betrayed my whole life was a lie. How could they keep this from me? What made them so scared that they had to leave their pack? I sigh sitting on the bed staring at the floor. There must be a perfectly good reason why they kept this from me all these years. I sighed trying to keep my thoughts to a bare minimum so I won't be so stressed out. I take the next thirty minutes of silence to calm down I end up laying fully down onto the bed looking up at the ceiling. Somebody knocks on the door "Who Is It?" I ask before siting up straight. Toby walks in "Mommy wants to know If you want to watch the movers drive off?" I look at him "Sure I'll watch" I say getting off the bed and waking down the stairs and out the door with him. Mom stood by the steps and we joined her watching the car take off down the driveway and onto the street. We stayed there for an extra few minutes Mom and Toby went back inside but I sat on the steps hugging my knees to my chest. I wish we weren't moving but I know this move will be both good and bad for us for some reason I just feel like the faster we get there the better everyone will feel. I sigh staring at the other houses on the block I felt a presence behind me but they don't say a thing they just stand there patting my shoulder after a while I stopped shaking.

When I calmed down I soon realized I was crying I most likely looked like a mess right then and there. I turned around to see who was behind me but no one was to be found. I smiled maybe It's dad's way to letting us know that he's okay with us moving "So you just gonna sit there and pretend I'm not here" Someone said I turned my head and Trish's three feet away from me and caring a basket in her right hand. I laugh "Sorry I didn't see you there" I said standing up "I almost forgot you were coming" she gasped "You forgot about me?" I shake my head "Maybe a little" Trish laughed "Girl I was just joking with you no need to take this seriously" I smile and head up the stairs Trish following behind me as I make my way Into the house. Trish shut the door and we both headed Into the living room and sat on the couch. The only thing were bringing to the new house are just personal things that hold value to us Not that everything In this house Is not good enough. We just don't want the same furniture In the new house "So you guys still need help with moving stuff?" I shaked my head "Nope we already done that" Trish nodded then looked at me with a serious expression and sighed "Did you tell your mom?" I was about to say yes but mom beat me too it.

"She told me yesterday" mom replied with before sitting down In another couch. I nod leaning into the couch Trish let out a breath of relief "Thank god I was about to tell you If she didn't already" Mom smiled "I know you would have Trish" I looked at the basket that Trish brought "What's In the basket?" I asked she grabbed the basket and handed it to me I grabbed the basket and sat on the couch sideways with the basket in front of me. I opened the basket as Trish sat down by the basket as well. I looked Into the basket expecting It to be food but there was baby clothes, bottles, booties, and pacifiers. I gasped while picking up the clothes and touching the other stuff she got me. "Thank you so much" I said hugging her she just laughed hugging me back "So I take It you like my present?" Trish asked when we stopped hugging. I shaked my head "I love your present I haven't gotten a present In a long time" She smiled looking into the basket "There's one more thing that you in here haven't looked at" I raise my eyebrows and I moved three sets of clothing to see a box laying in the corner of the basket. I picked It up and opened it I smiled It was a stuffed unicorn toy "Remember when you were a freshmen and I was a sophomore we had unicorn outfits on because we had to dress up that day" I nodded "I remember" I say pushing my hair out of my face and behind my ear she smiled.

"It was one of the best days of my life because I met you" Trish said almost in tears I sniffled and we immediately hugged each other tightly. The hug felt like hours not that I didn't mind we won't see each other for three months since she's going to college soon in Oklahoma. We pulled away "Ugh I feel like I'm not going to see you for a long time" I shaked my head "I'ts only for three months then your moving to Oklahoma" Trish sighed "Yeah but for those three months your going to replace me with a better friend" I gasped "Is that what you think Is gonna happen" Trish nodded I took her hands and squeezed them "You are my best friend for life and nothing and no one can take that place you hear me?" I say and Trish nods "Okay never say that we wont be friends because we will remain friends even when were ghosts" she chuckled "Okay well what do you wanna do next?" I shrugged "I could go for a snack" Trish nods "Me too" We got up and I looked over to the couch where my mom was supposed to be but she's no longer there.
