When I wake up, I feel a heavy object laying on my stomach, that is now exposed do to my shirt rose up as I slept. I feel my pillow move and I turn to see what I'm laying on and see a bare chest. I follow the chest and see the face of my best friend and crush, Cobalt. Now, I know what you're saying, either in your head or out loud, ' So what, this is going to be the cliche love story where the girl/boy best friend falls in love with the boy/girl best friend and they figure it out and they live happily ever after.' Trust me, it isn't. Mk? Mk. Back to the story.

I look down at my stomach and see it is also his arm that is on my waist. I smile and lay my head back down when I hear a knocking on the door. I shoot up, shake Cobalt awake and answer the door. The next thing I know is that Cobalt is shooting out of the squeaky, uncomfortable bed and to the door. He opens it and then I'm out of bed. Standing in the doorway is my favorite person in the whole wide world, my older brother, Noa. He is the only thing I have left from my mother that I can hold near me. He is my first most important person. He held me together when the world ripped me apart. He left for college about three years ago and he is studying to be a doctor, to become what Mom couldn't. I haven't seen him since. Now I see him in my hospital room, looking like he hasn't slept in almost as long as Cobalt.

I pinch myself in the arm then yell "OW." Noa looks at me like I'm crazy and I just smile and run up to him. I leap on him and practically tackle him to the ground. He wraps his arms around me and holds me in his embrace. I was so happy that I started crying. Noa pulls away from me when he hears my sob.

"Baby sis, what's wrong? Are you hurt? Baby, you got to tell me so I can make it better." Noa is so kind, I almost forgot. I start to chuckle, realizing he thinks he hurt me.

"Hun, you know didn't do anything. I just missed you. That's all." I smile a teary, watery smile and go back up to him.

He grabs me and lifts me above him and spins me. "I missed you, too. You have no idea how much I wanted to come home, but I couldn't. I had to study. Mum would have wanted me to."

"It's okay. I know. I just haven't seen you in years and now you're here and I'm just so happy" I say as I'm wiping my teary eyes on my long-sleeved shirt. I hear another knock on the door and then realized that Cobalt wasn't in the room. I jump out of Moa's grip and run to the door. I swing it open and I see Cobalt standing there, leaning against the wall, his head leaning against it and his legs crossed over the other. He looks over when he hears the big, squeaky hospital door open and I run up to him. I give him a huge hug.

He instantly wraps his arms around my waist as mine go around his neck. I breathe in his sent. The foresty, sea-ish sent that he always smells like, effortlessly. I don't understand how that is possible, but he is. I love his sent. It's alluring and I can't understand my need to smell it.

When we release each other, I the doctor who I saw in my room last night coming this way. I go into the room and sit on the bed. The doctor comes in after me and the boys walk out and I'm left all alone with the doctor.

"You probably don't remember my name, but I am a doctor Crunkit. I am just here to check your vitals to make sure you are stable to go home." I am shocked to hear such a nasally voice come out of his mouth that my mouth is agape.

He walks around me, looking at all the different machines that I had recently unhooked from my body so I could move about. It is then that I realize, that the machines never beeped when I unhooked them, making me wonder if they were ever truly hooked up properly. The doctor doesn't seem to realize, nor care, and takes notes on his boring, brown, wooden clipboard. He smiles, looking satisfied and walks out of the room. When he opens the door, I hear a snippet of the boys' conversation that they were having outside the door. I wasn't to clear but I definitely heard "she needs to know that she is a werewolf". Who are they talking about? Is it me, because I'm pretty sure I would know if I was a werewolf.

The boys stop talking and walk into the room, looking very casual, like they weren't just talking about some girl possibly being a fictional character that you only read about in sci-fi books and watch on the sci-fi channel. I must be going crazy. That's it. I'm losing my mind. It's the only explanation. I'm crazy. I'm just going to forget about that entire conversation or at least the part I actually heard.

The boys are looking at me with smiles and, to be honest, they look crazy. "What is going on here. Did you guys join a cult while you were out there? You know what, I don't care, just leave me out of." They start to chuckle and I scoot closer to the red button on the wall that calls the nurse.

"Hun, you get to go home. And since dad isn't here, you get to come home with me. Are you excited." I suddenly realize what he just said, and realize that he is being one hundred percent serious. Next thing I know, I'm screaming then black.
