"Tristan!" Opening my eyes to feel a pain in my neck and a bad headache once again, I groan and slowly sit up as I look at Grey, who's turned a light on now and is looking at me with a concerned face.

"W-What?"

"I don't know! you tell me. What was going on?"

"I don't know Grey. What happened?"

"You were talking in your sleep about your dad Tristan." My face goes sad as he says this and then it hit me, I had a nightmare. Why don't I remember dreaming then?

"I-I'm sorry. I-I didn't know Grey. Just forget about it, really. I'm fine."

"Bull shit. What was going on."

"I don't know." I whisper as I look down.

"Tristan."

"Grey I don't know! I don't remember having a nightmare, i just was sleep talking I guess. It happens." I say looking up at him. His eyes flicker gold and I look down as him and Hunter fight over who needs to be here. My head buzzes and I feel really light headed. I start to shake and I curse Under my breath as My arms cramp up.

"G-Grey. Grey....Hold me."

"What?"

"Just do it." I whisper as I cramp up and I lose feeling in my hands fro a solid second. Grey moves me into his arms and Holds me as. pain rips through me and I grip his arm and shoulder, digging in with my nails as he holds me. I whimper through the pains and try to think, but this time I lose my focus again and I can't think straight, only on the pain.

"Tristan Breathe." I shake my head as My body hurts, every time a pain hits me, it just gets worse and worse. I bite my lip to stop myself from screaming and it barley works. After what seems like hours of pain my body goes limp and I close my eyes in Grey's arms. I can't open them, I can't talk, I can't move.

I try to breathe but I can't, I barley get out breaths and I just here a ringing in my ears. "Tristan." Grey's voice booms over everything and I shrink down into his arms, hiding myself. I feel his hand connect with my jaw and he slowly brings my face up, making me open my eyes as much as I can at the moment, which is barley open. He kisses me lightly and rubs my cheek as he does so, I close my eyes again for a moment as He holds me closer to him than before.

I can feel him shake his head and I open my eyes again with more force, needing to see someone. Grey looks down at me and goes wide eyed at me. Moving, forgetting what just happened, setting me on the bed next to him. He sits on his knees and take my face in his and stares at me, and I can only watch.

"Ph-Philip?" Grey asks in the saddest tone that I've heard him ever talk in. He's always in a dominant or strong voice, but he sounds weak now. Why is he asking that? "Say. Something." And there is that demanding tone again. I can only look at him as my throat and, let me be clear, the rest of my body are numb! My lip quivers and Greys eyes go disappointed and he looks down.

Soon He takes me in him arms and rests me on his chest, holding me and stroking my head. "Hey, hey I'm back. It's okay I'm back." Hunters lighter voice rings through my ears this time and I let a tear fall, one after the other as I cry into his chest. "It's okay. you got through it, it's okay." I stay there as my eyes close and stay that way, my mind still buzzing and my body numb. I let out a small whimper and I grip Hunters arms as I somehow manage to cry.

"I'm gonna move us okay?" I whimper as he starts to and he lays me down on my side, and instantly I curl up into a ball and hold myself. I feel Hunter get up and I hear his footsteps on the hardwood floor. Soon there is a dip in the bed by my side and I flinch as Hunters Hand rests on my arm. His thumb rubs small circles but at this point it doesn't work. Nothing does.

"Tristan. Look at me."

I open my eyes and stare at the mattress. Feeling numb inside and out and just wanting to disappear from everything right now, I go back in my thoughts and think of everything.

"Tristan. Please look at me. You know it's Hunter." I stare at the grey bed spread and hold myself tighter as My mind goes back to the house. To my dad. to my room, to my aunt and mom and everything. I feel my eyes burn and tears rush down my cheeks onto my lips and then to the bed.

"Tristan." I'm facing Hunter with in a second of me crying and I'm sitting up and crying. "Tristan, hey, talk to me Babe." I barley shake my head and cry as Hunter wipes the tears away. "Tristan, I can't help if you don't talk to me. Please just say something to me."

I close my eyes again and I start to feel the pressure on my arms, from how much I was holding them. I loosen my grip and open my eyes to Hunter looking away from me.

Why was Grey disappointed? Who the hell was he talking about?

He looked so sad, that I wasn't who he was talking to...like I was the disappointment...

"I just want to go to bed. Please?" I whisper to him, making him look up and nod. HE lays me down and moves to turn off a light that is dimly lighting the room, and as soon as it is off I move so I am cuddling Hunter.

------------------

Wakingto hunter coming back into the room from his run and checking in on Lou, I hide under the blankets and groan as my head hurts again.

"Morning sleepy head."

I mumble morning back to Hunter and he laughs as he sits his desk and opens his laptop, I hear him clicking away right away. I close my eyes as I hug his pillow in my arms.

After a few minutes I come out from my cocoon of blankets and tiredly get out of bed. Hunter turns his chair and smiles at me. I walk over to him I just happen to see on his screen what his plans are for this week.

"You have to leave this weekend?" I ask sadly, even though I knew this was going to happen most likely.

"I was going to tell you last night, but then you invited Grey to stay with you and then when I came back things weren't so good."

"Sorry." I says as he looks up at me.

"You don't have to be sorry every time this happens Tristan." Hunter gets this concerned look on his face and his voice sounds worried too.

"I know. It just happens to be that I say sorry to every little thing I do though."

"That is not true."

"I said sorry after waking up and going to the bathroom the other day, plus I said sorry when I made you moan. So yeah I think I do."

"You did not make me moan."

"I did too."

"You really believe that."

"Yes I do."

"Well, I think we need to test that out-"

"No." I say right away as He pulls me closer to him by the hips and gets less than and inch away from my face, "So....why are you leaving again?" I ask as he smirks down at me, gazing into my small soul as I just try to change the subject over here with my pansy butt.

"My dad want's me to go to some meetings with him. I don't really know what for, but He said I should really go."

I look down and nod, "I don't have to go if you need me here Trist."

"N-no. It's fine, I'll be okay for a night or two. If anything Lou will come in here and I'll just cuddle her instead." I say looking back up at him.

"You sure?"

"Yes Hunter. I will be okay for a day or two. What's the worst that can happen?" I ask. Hunter starts to open his mouth and I peck his lips before he says anything and starts a list of things that could go wrong, "Don't answer that.Please." I say Looking at his eyes with start showing flakes of gold in his baby blue eyes. He rolls them and kisses my cheek, making me blush.

"Fine. But if I hear one word that something here is happening I am coming straight home. Even if it's just a nightmare."

"Okay. Deal. But you are going to this and you're going to be fine. And so will I." He rolls his eyes at me and sighs. I push him back in his chair and ruffle his hair before turning around and walking to the bathroom, "I'm gonna shower again."

"M'kay." I shake my head as I shut the door and grab a towel of a shelf, tossing it over the shower bar and turning the cold water on, instantly sinking away into my mind as I wash real quick. After a few minutes I grab my towel and put it around me, drying myself before changing back into the briefs I had on before and drying my wet hair as best I can before walking back out.

Hunter's getting ready in he closet and I walk in, grab one of my t-shirts that fit me a little too snug, along with ripped black jeans and socks. I change as Hunter does his hair and turns to face me and I jump into the jeans and button them up. The fabric hugs my legs and the shirt fits loosely on me.

Hunter comes up behind me and kisses my ear, "You look really good." He whispers in my ear as I run a hand through my damp hair. Rolling my eyes at him, I turn around and kiss him lightly, his hands instantly grab my hips.

"Pretty sure you have another meeting to get to Hunter."

"Not for another hour."

"Okay, well I said I would take care of Lou for a few hours, so...."

"I know. I was there with you when you agreed to it and said you would drag me out with you."

"Oh... yeah." I say remembering I did say I would bring him with me for a bit. Smiling at him I Start to walk out and Grab a hoodie off the of the bed before opening the door and Leaving Hunter in here to finish getting ready.

I head to Lou's room and over here Mary and Dean in their own room, the door is open a tad bit; they're yelling at each other.

"He needs help! I Will not have my son be doing this to himself Dean!"

"HUNTER IS FINE MARY! He went through a rough patch, so what! He has responsibility's now!"

"Fuck that! We both know you won't step down anytime soon! He has time to learn but If he doesn't stop hurting himself then I will take him away!"

"DO NOT SAY THAT!"

"I WILL DEAN!"

"NO YOU WILL NOT. He is just as much my son as he is yours! He is eighteen and needs to do this on his own! He has other people to look after and he will not be leaving to fix what he can do on his own! He only did it because of himself and Tristan! You will not take my son away and send him go knows where!"

"Watch me." Mary spits out at Dean .

"Mary I swear to god if you do anything to Hunter!" I let out a breath and run to Lou's room who is on her bed watching her feet swing sadly.

Oh god please let her be okay- I think to myself as I walk over to her princess themed bed.

"Hey Lou." I sit on the floor by her as she looks down with a frown on her face, "what wrong?"

"Mommy and Daddy are fiwting again." She say looking at me with sad eye. She heard all of that.

"Oh Lou. It's okay, sometimes parents fight, it's nothing to worry about okay?"

"Are twey going to send you and Huntie away?" My mouth opens and I look down. No.

No they are not going to send us away, they would never do that, right? Mary is just...thinking that Hunter is still doing things.

"No Lou, no one is going away." I take her off the bed and hug her tightly as she sniffs and hugs me back. I rub her small back and she wraps her little arms around my neck, "Now, why are you not dressed yet?" I ask smiling at her. She shrugs and puts on a bright smile before she runs to her small dresser and pulls out clothes, running to her bathroom and changing. I stand up and make her bed quickly as Hunter comes in and tosses me a pillow for on the bed.

"Hey." I say walking to him.

"Hey." His voice sounds sad, just like Lous. Him and her have a sibling connection thing, they just know when something is off with each other, it's rare for wolves, but it can build in relationships.

"Um, I heard your parents fighting. Lou heard it all too and she's worried about us. She's scared that they are going to send one of us away. Or worse, the both of us." I say, whispering so Lou doesn't hear me and worry even more.

"What?" Hunter says worried. "W-why would they?"

"Your mom thinks you're still hurting yourself. She wants you stop Alpha training and Get help. You dad won't let her take you away though. I'm sorry, I over heard and eased dropped and Now I'm kinda worried too because they want to send both of us away and-"

"Hey, It's okay. We aren't going anywhere. I'll talk to my mom more, I know she doesn't really understand why I did it, your the only one who does really. We won't go anywhere. She doesn't have the heart to send us away anyways..." He says taking my hand and hugging me. I nod and sigh shakily.

Hunter told his parents a few days ago about his self harming. He showed his parents his arms and now where's short sleeved shirts around me; and around his parents when he feels like it. But he still tries to hide it from Lou and the Pack.

Lou comes out in leggings and a pink shirt and runs to Hunter, who swoops her up in his arms and hugs her.

"Huntie!"

"hey Lou Lou." He holds her in his one arm and looks at her. "What are we going to do toady?"

"Can we watch a movie?"

"Of course we can. Why don't I go make popcorn and you and Tristan go find a movie in my room?"

"Can we make a fort?" Lou asks poking Hunters cheek.

"Sure." She giggles as Hunter hands he to me and smiles, leaving me and Lou to go get food. Me and Lou go get blankets from a closet and grab a few extra pillows too. Tossing it all on Hunters floor. I pull Netflix up and start making a first as Lou scrolls through Disney movies.

Hunter walks in and laughs as Lou hold the big remote and I get lost in a sea of blankets tryin to do this by myself.

"Well don't just stand there, come help me." I say as I pick up a bed sheet and fan it over hunters desk chair, two bed posts, and a Lamp. He laughs and tosses pillows and blankets to me to get inside the Little first by the tv. Lou crawls in after deciding on 'Trolls' to watch.

Me and hunter crawl in too and Lou lay in her stomach in front of Hunter and I as we cuddle and watch the movie. I've never seen it and it's really cute! Poppy is so adorable and everything! By the time the movie is over me and Lou want to watch another one and we pick 'Princess and The Frog' which is one of my favorites. Hunter puts up with it and smiles as me and Lou sing along to every song.

After a another two hours of Disney Lou scrolls through movies again and hunter checks his phone.

"I've got to go." He says to me sadly. I sigh and nod as he crawls out. "Text me when your done?" I ask.

"Of course. Bye Lou. Be good for Tristan."

"Bwy Huntie!" Lou crawls back in after choosing A Mickey Mouse movie and crawls under a blanket. I lay next to her and close my eyes. It's around four an I'm already tired.

After another four hours of movies me and Lou are watching 'Lilo and stitch', and we both fall asleep half way through. Laying on the floor in a heap of blankets, all cozy and warm. I wake up to Hunter coming into the room quietly and his footsteps get louder as he walks to Lou and I.

I peep my eyes open and close them due to the bright TV light. Hunter notices and imedently shuts it off before coming over to me, crawling in and spooning me from behind. Kisses my head and taking my hand in his, intertwining our fingers together.

"How'd it go?" I mumble it to him still half asleep.

"It went okay. I'm leaving Thursday."

"Why?"

"My dad wants me at a meeting remember? I'll be back Sunday."

"Oh yeah. Okay." I'm really not functioning right now. Its warm.

"Are you sure you are okay with it?" I just nod my head and lay back down on a pillow, "Do you want me to take you to your appointment tomorrow?"

I stay still and think. Do I want him to take me? I nod and grasp his hand in the meantime. Before I fall asleep again his kisses my head and falls asleep along with me.

"Are you sure you'll be okay?" I say yes for the third time today as me and Hunter walk down the steps of the house, passing people who smile and wave.

"Are you sure? I don't want you to do something your not ready for." He says stoping me and grabbing my hands.

"Hunter. I will be fine. I promise if something is in my mind afterwards I'll tell you. But I already told you I should do this alone. Today at least." Hunter huffs and hangs his head in defeat.

I need to go into the appointment alone for now. I have to get through this by myself, not because I want to but because I have to get through this for Hunter. He has so Much going on right now I hate that I'm an extra load onto his cart right now.

We continue walking in silence down the giant staircase and past all the open rooms on The first floor. Moving to the clinic and stopping after checking in the the nurse at the front station.

"Are you sure?" He asks me one more time.

"Hunter. I am going to be okay. I promise. You will be fine alone for forty five minutes. Okay?"

"Okay...." he lots out while rubbing the back of my hand with his thumb.

"I promise I will spend he rest of the day with you. Doing what ever you want." I say before kissing him on the lips quickly.

"What ever I want?" He says against my lips lowly.

"Within reason Hunter."

"Fine." He says before he doctor comes out and walks up to us. Shaking Hunter hand he takes me back to his office and closes the door. I watch him to make sure he doesn't lock it and thankfully he doesn't.

I can not do any locked doors with out having a panic attack anymore either.

He grabs a note pad and pen from his desk and sits in a chair across from the small couch in the room. He motions for me to sit and I do. Leaning forward and resting my arms on my legs I look at the ground and wait.

"Okay Tristan. Can I call you that or is here another name?" He asks.

"Tristan's Fine." I say still looking at the ground.

"Okay. Well let's just start off by letting me get to know you a little more than I already do. Tell me a few things about yourself that are just about you and your personality."

I sit and think. "Well I'm really into soccer. It's the only sport I like. I really like Disney movies, which we just found or a few weeks ago. I don't have many friends, just Sarah and Hunter. I'm introverted I guess...I don't really do things. I like to Bake with Mary?" I say still looking down.

"That's a great start and all good things for me to know."

After about ten minutes he pops the question. "So we both know why you are here Tristan. And I think we should break into that a little." I keep my head hung down and my hair falls in my face. I swallow a lump in my throat as he looks at me.

My hands start to shake.

"What do you want to know about him?" I ask.
