After training, I met up with Kai. He hated being away from me, so I always had to go see him when I was done. It was a promise I made him. He was conversing with one of the other werewolves, Seth.

Seth was a good friend, but he was too concerned about what Paul thought. That's what I didn't understand. Why follow someone, who isn't even an alpha? It makes no sense to me.

I waved at him, and he smiled and walked off, leaving me to converse with Kai.

I smiled at my best friend, and he smiled in return. "Can we go home yet? I'm exhausted." Kai chuckled. I nodded.

Me, Tyler, Kai, and on occasion, when they felt like it, Bayley and Trent, lived together, in a house not too far away from the rest of the pack, but just far enough, that we had our privacy.

So, I got Tyler, and we drove home, Bayley and Trent, were gonna stay with the rest of the pack.

It'd been a difficult few months, I'll admit.

I hadn't spoken to anyone really. Not Derek, not Kol, not the Winchesters, not Klaus. The only one I was still talking to, was Stiles. He was my best friend, and I missed him dearly. So, I called him every chance I got.

I wasn't lonely though, not at all. My new friends were nice to have around. Tyler was great, I wish I'd started being his friend sooner. And, of course I had Kai.

We didn't really talk about the idea of 'us,' I didn't know if it'd be a great idea. But, I really missed him and me, being the way we used to be. But, it all seemed so stupid now, to think that me and him could ever have anything.

He saw what happened with me, and the other people that I cared about. He had a front row seat for it. After all that, why would he honestly wanna think about me romantically? And more importantly, why was I thinking about him like that? Why again?

Kai, still slept in my bed of course, he didn't like sleeping alone, and him and Tyler weren't exactly that close. He was already laying down, and I got into bed next to him. He could tell something was wrong, when I turned over to go to sleep without saying anything.

He turned, and draped his arm around me, and pulled me close to him.

"Are you okay? You haven't been yourself for the past few days. Is this about Kol? Derek? Sam? We could go visit them if you want." He suggested.

Sure, I missed those three. They were all important people in my life. But, they weren't the thing occupying my thoughts, and keeping me from being able to sleep.

My problem, was that I couldn't stop thinking about Kai. But, I couldn't tell him that.

I brushed him off. "I'm fine." Was all I said. Kai sighed. "Abi, that's not true. You can't hide your feelings from me, I know when you're upset."

I exhaled sharply, as I got out of bed.

"It's you Kai! I-I..um.."

For some reason, I couldn't get the words out. I'm not sure why, maybe I just didn't know what to say. Or how to say it.

He got up as well, and looked at me with a confused expression, with his hands rested on his hips.

"What about me Abi? Are you not happy with me being here..? Because I-I can go." He replied, a sad expression on his face.

I instantly felt horrible, and walked closer to him, grabbing his hands.

"No Kai, it's not that at all, I really care about you, I love having you around. I'm beyond happy with you. Maybe that's the problem." I sighed.

"Are you..saying you might have feelings for me? Because Abi, if you do, I really need you to tell me. I'll start, I wanna be with you Abi. I've wanted to be with you ever since I met you. And seeing you with Kol, killed me. You're everything to me.."

Hearing him say that, made me realize something.

Kai Parker, had always been there for me, he was always there when I needed him. He was someone I needed.

I smiled, and since there were no words to explain how happy I was, I kissed him instead.

It was just as passionate and amazing as I remembered it. I missed this, more than I realized.

We fell into bed, and Kai cupped my face.

"Are you sure about this?" He asked. I nodded, and smiled. "More sure, than I've ever been." I replied. Kai smiled before kissing me again.

There was one thing I knew for certain, Tyler wasn't getting any sleep tonight.
