I kept looking behind me every five seconds at out paranoia and just knowing hungry wolves are out here doesn't help. Kaden better be lucky that he's my best friend or I would have gone back to the party.

"Okay, Jesse, times up.", Logan said, grabbing my hand.

"Wait, five more minutes.", I begged, looking around. I know I'm going to regret this, "Kaden, where are you-", I was cut off when Logan wrapped his hands around my mouth and I mumbled behind them for him to move them.

"Jesse, don't do that!", he whispered. "God knows how close that wolf we heard is close.",

He moved his hand, "But Logan, please-",

He shook his head, "No, even I'm sure Kaden went back when he realized how dumb it was to go out here. He'll be fine, he's a big boy.",

"But-",

He just shook his head, closed his eyes, and his lips made a tight ling of annoyance. I know he's right when he say we should go back, but something in my gut saying Kaden's still out here. Why haven't we found or heard him? I tried calling his phone and it ranged and went to voicemail.

I looked around one more time, but sighed, "Okay, we'll go back-",

We heard coming like something heavy running our way and we heard a growl.

"Shit!", Logan cursed and ran, dragging me along with him. Sadly I wasn't a runner like him I was slowing him down and wearing flats wasn't happening, but I tried my best to run so I wouldn't become some wolf dinner tonight.

Moments I was panting, feeling tired. My foot got caught on a vine that was half dug in the ground and I tripped with a squealed. Logan put his hands around my waist and helped me up when we heard the growling was closer.

Logan cursed again and he led us over to a tree, "Climb as high as you can!", he said quickly and he helped me climb the first branch. I quickly made a process of climbing up the next, I heard the growl was now so close, my blood went cold and I heard Logan scream.

I took in a sharp breath and looked down at Logan to see a wolf circling around him. Logan was on his hands and knees, trying to remain still as possible, and I saw him shaking. Hell, I was shaking just for him!

I bit my lower lip and my eyes showed so much fear, I wanted to scream out for help, but knew that was a bad idea.

The wolf was pretty big for being a wolf. His fur was black and had some gray-ish-white fur on his sides and stomach. His eyes I could see were gray, almost white. He just circle around Logan watching him carefully. He would growl a few seconds and I saw all the color drain out of Logan as he stopped a few feet away from Logan face.

The wolf bared its pointy teeth at Logan and snipped and Logan jerked. The wolf jerked his head up and Logan just looked at him confused. The wolf growled and with his eyes, he looked at Logan feet and again, jerked his head up.

Logan stood still for a few moments, deciding something. He licked his dried lips and as slow as ever, he got up on his feet and the wolf just watched as he did.

I swear my fingers were dinging into the bark of the tree when the wolf step forward to Logan.

Knowing I was so stupid for doing this, I yelled, "Hey, over here! Look up here!",

The wolf head snapped up and growled real deeply. I squealed and I swear, I slipped when my right foot moved, but I grabbed the tree.

Logan gave me a look for me to be quite, but I have to help him! He has to get out of here or he'll get killed! God, I'm going to be in this tree all night!

"G-go away!", I yelled. I broke a stick and threw it at the wolf, but it missed. The wolf did not look happy at all. He growled and barked, making me jump.

One of the wolfs paw raised and my eyes widen when it slashed across Logan left thigh! I screamed as Logan fell on his teeth and his hands with to his cut bleeding thigh as he hissed in serious pain.

The wolf looked up at me one more time before it ran off. Logan fell on his side and brought his knees up to his chest as he yelled in pain, "God damnit! That fucking hurt!",

Not caring if the wolf would come back, I climbed down the tree and went over to Logan. "Oh my God! Logan, it's all my fault!", I said, not sure if I should touch his leg or not. My eyes began to water, "I'm so, so, so sorry! I shouldn't have thrown that stick! If I knew he would have cut you, I wouldn't have done it! God, I'm such a horrible person-",

"Jesse, stop!", he yelled, cutting me off. "Please, just call the fucking cops so I can go to the hospital!",

"O-okay,", I said, taking my phone out my back pocked and began to dial 9-1-1.

The paramedic rolled the stretcher over to the ambulance and I was right next to them. The ambulance was right next to Chace houses and people watched us, but I ignored them.

Logan was panting on the stretcher and he kept blinking as the paramedics kept telling him to stay awake since he was losing blood and they needed him to wait until they were in the ambulance so they could drug him up and wrap it.

I had tears sliding my cheeks as I fallowed them over to it. God, this is all my fault! Logan got hurt because of me because I wanted to go looking for my ass of a friend and I just had to piss that wolf off by throwing a freaking stick! Logan could have died because of me!

When they rolled Logan into the ambulance, I was about to hop in when one of the paramedic held out his hand, "Sorry, ma'am.",

"But-", I began to protest but he just shook his head and closed both doors and the ambulance drove away.

I watched as it drove away and I could feel people watching me.

"Jesse!", I heard Melanie voice and I turned to see her running down the steps of the cabin and over to me. She pulled me into a tight hug, "Oh my God, I just heard what happened! Are you okay?", she asked, pulling away. Her makeup looked slight smeared and her top was on backwards.

I nodded and rubbed under my eyes, "Y-yeah, but Logan got hurt. One of those wolfs attacked him and it was because of me.", I said, tears sliding down my face again.

"Oh Jesse,", she said, pulling me into a hug and rubbed my back to try and comfort me. "No it isn't.",

I couldn't speak without sobbing, so I kept quite as I hugged her back.

"Jesse!", I heard another voice and recognized it as Kaden.

Melanie moved and that's when Kaden wrapped his arms around my waist, pulling me close to him, "God, your alright!",

I moved back enough to put my hands on his chest and pushed him away, "Logan got hurt because of you!",

He had guilt written on his face, "I know, I'm sorry! I shouldn't have yelled and let my anger get the best of me then I wouldn't have ran in the woods to try to cool down and you wouldn't have gone in there to look for me.",

"Yeah, you shouldn't have!", I said. "And if weren't for me, I wouldn't thrown something a that wolf and he wouldn't have attacked Logan as he risk his life letting me go up a tree first.",

He stepped forward to me and put his hands on my shoulders, "Jesse, please, just calm down! I'm sorry, I'm really truly sorry!",

I scowled at him, not feeling like I want to go threw this, "Just take me home.", I said coldly.

He nodded quickly, "Okay.",

After dropping Melanie home and saying she'll call me tomorrow and changing into my cloths I came with to Melanie house with on and my bag, I leaned against the passenger door as I stared out the window up at the sky.

"Are you going to talk to me any time soon?", Kaden asked me.

I ignored him, feeling so much guilt for Logan.

He sighed, "Look, Jesse, I'm sorry. I'll go visit Logan tomorrow and apologize to him.",

I turned to look at him, "That isn't it, Kaden. You were being such an ass tonight and Logan helped me look for you. He was risking something just to go find you so you wouldn't get hurt. You put him at risk, I put him in danger.",

He sighed and ran of his hands down his face quickly, "I'm sorry, to the both of you. I'll admit, I was being an ass and shouldn't have yelled at you like that. I had no right.",

I crossed my arms over my chest, "Your damn right, Kaden.", I said, looking out the window again and he drove in silence the rest of the way.

When we got to my house, I got out and Kaden followed until we were on the porch. I raised an eyebrow and he sighed, "I'll meet you up there," he whispered, going up on rail of the porched and going on the roof of the porch.

I took my key out and unlocked the door. I came in to see my mom and dad on the couch cuddling as they watched a movie. They looked confused to see me, "Weren't you suppose to be sleeping over at Melanie tonight?", my mom asked. "Who brought you home? It's eleven o'clock.",

I sighed and threw my bag over my shoulder, "Mel got sick and I called Kaden to bring me home. Sorry I didn't call.",

"Oh, well, it's okay.", my mom said. "Goodnight, love you.", she said as I walked up the steps.

"Night, love ya both.", I said and went over to my room. I went in and threw my bag on the floor, "My dad down stairs, you know.", I whispered to Kaden, hoping that will scare him enough yo keave, as I threw off my sneakers. I walked over to the bed where he was sitting and sat down next to him with a worn out and tired face.

He looked at me seriously, "Tomorrow, I have to tell you something. Something that might ruin our friendship.",

My eyebrows forward together, "What do you mean, Kaden?", I asked with a worn out voice.

"I mean, you might hate me tomorrow.", he said and I swear, his voice sounded scared. "Tomorrow, I'm going to tell you something that's going to make you never want to see me again.",

"How?", I asked. "Kaden, let's not do this right now. Go home so I can sleep and-",

He cut my off by cupping my cheeks and kissed me. My eyes widen and I froze in my spot, not sure what to do. Kaden is actually kissing me again! Why?

I protested with myself if I should kiss him back or not. I felt guilty for letting him kiss me and I felt like it was the most natural and tingly feeling in the whole world. After moments of debating with myself, I closed my eyes and finally kissed him back.

Kaden show his dominant side by ranking of his hands threw my hand, pressing my lips closer to his. His other hand left my hair and around my waist, pulling me closer to him.

A somehow familiar growl came out his mouth. He moved his lips for a second and peck me. He pressed his forehead down on mine, but he couldn't make eye contact with me and looked down at his lap, "I'm sorry, but I needed to do that. Just because it might be the last night I'm ever going to be close to you.",

"Kaden, I don't understand-",

He moved away and crawled out the window quickly.

"Wait!", I whispered, but loudly. He turned his head around and I felt my cheeks heat up, "Um...night.", I said awkwardly to him and bit my lower lip.

He gave me a small smile, "Night, Jesse.", he said as he ranked his fingers threw my hair again and peck me hard before jumping off the roof and I saw him run over to his house.

I groaned to myself as I leaned back in my room and laid down.

I covered my face with my hands as I shook my head, "I'm such an idiot.", I said to myself. I'm really truly an idiot for realizing I'm falling for my best friend.
