"I don't really care if no one else believes,

cause I still got a lot of fight left in me."

AVA

Berly and I had made up so I was at her garage which she had turned into a makeshift office. It was 1:00 pm but we were halfway through reviewing some contracts and going through letters. It was rather tasking and I could give people to do this for me but I preferred doing it myself. I told her what had happened last night and all she wanted to hear was how Damien pushed me out of the window.

''He really pushed you out of the window?!"

'' For the twentieth time Berly, YES!''

''Classic, absolutely classic,'' she murmured and I rolled my eyes.

''You two will absolutely be great for each other.''

''Berly,'' I say in a warning tone. I was not going to get another lecture on why Damien Fox and I should be together. What had happened last night was nothing, I did not want to spend time thinking about someone when I had work to do.

''What?'' She asks innocently. "Maybe he will finally make you open up."

''I am open."

'' Yeah. To two people, Tallnor and I.''

I am about to respond when Gage walks in, bringing in Doritos and cans of Coke.

''You guys done?'' He asks.

"Yeah, almost," I reply "Three more boxes left.''

He nods and grabs a sit while Berly fills him in on my nonexistent love life and I inwardly groaned. I did not really see eye to eye with Gage but as long as he was great to Berly, that was all that mattered. I needed some fresh air.

I stand up, grabbing a can of coke and walk out past the living room and out onto her front porch. Sitting on the hammock I stare out onto the street, for how long? I have no idea.

A couple comes out of the building opposite Berly's holding hands. They did not look older than eighteen, probably seventeen. I remember the boy, Clark I think, he was still a child when I left for college. The girl I did not know so she was most likely human. Two young people, madly in love and made for each other and to them nothing else mattered, just the... Shut up! You sound like Berly.

Clark hugs her and gives her a kiss long enough to make me feel uncomfortable. He pulls away grinning and the girl gently pushes him, blowing him kisses until he was out of sight.

Awwn, so cute.

Shut up!

One day I might just end up dead, fighting with myself like this.

I finally walk back into the house. Back in the house I am surprised to find out that Gage and Berly were already done with the boxes.

"Oh, thanks.''

''Sure.'' They both reply as Berly places the last sheet of paper on a mountain of neatly stacked files.

'''Sooo are you going for the Bonfire?''

''What bonfire?'' I ask quite surprised, why don't I hear about anything going on in this town?

''Full moon Ava,'' she says shaking her head in disbelief, ''I cannot believe you forgot! We used to love going as kids.''

''I don't know Berly."

''Come on, just get out of your head for once, please."

Hopefully Damien and his pack had gone back to their territory and Austin had somehow disappeared...
