When I got home I started on the math homework. There's supposed to be a test on Wednesday of what they've been learning, but since I just got here, the teacher said I didn't have to take it. I still want to, I don't want to sit there being bored the entire block with nothing to do. What they've been learning so far is pretty easy so I'm sure I'll ace it.

When I do homework, read, or study, I like to listen to music. Pop music is my favorite, though I do like some rock music and a few country songs.

I love the bands Fall Out Boy, Twenty One Pilots, Panic! At the Disco, and Maroon 5. I'm looking into listening to My Chemical Romance.

Yes I love bands, don't judge me.

I mostly just listen to bands then singular artists. My friends back in Ohio used to say I was a little emo because I'd listen to that kind of music, but I don't care.

Right now I'm jamming to the song " Wilson ( Expensive Mistakes ) " by Fall Out Boy. Fall Out Boy just came out with a new album and I love it so much! My favorite song on there either is Church or Stay Frosty Royal Milk Tea... sure that title is crazy but don't let it fool you, it's an amazing song.

I was brought out of my thoughts to my phone buzzing. It was Kylie wanting to check on how my first day was probably.

I checked my lock screen and sure enough, I saw her face on the caller ID.

" Hello this is the Meadow residents how may I help you? " I say in a customer service tone, making the other end of the line go quiet until you can hear laughing.

" Jess, I know it's you. How was your first day? "

" It was okay- strange, but okay. " You can practically hear the uncertainty dripping from my tone, it is not helping bring my point across.

" Ooooh did you meet a cute guy? What was his name? Did you make any friends?! " she exclaimed

" Yes, Sean, and yes. " I answer her three questions in the order she asks, not phased.

" Sean huh? How did it go? "

" I mean we aren't friends or anything. When he walked into the class as I was introducing myself, he just stared at me. I couldn't read his expression. And then he tried to tap my arm during class or whispered my name to get my attention but I didn't respond.. "

" Oh, you should talk to him! Maybe you two are soulmates! " she exclaimed again

She has a big imagination, I doubt we'd be soulmates and I don't believe it exists. I'll believe they exist when wolfs talk.

" Yeah I think he has a girlfriend though.. " I frowned.

" Nooo! I bet it won't last. " she pressed on reassuringly. I raise my eyebrow at her confidence and shook my head.

" I doubt it, I just got here. There's no way he likes me. We barely know eachother. "

It was a lie, I do like him, a lot. Just find it weird because I don't know the dude. I'll stay away from him, then I'll think about someone else. But for a few weeks I want to focus on school. I might join the art club, if it's not too late.

" Well we'll see how it goes. Anyway I gotta cook dinner, it's my turn tonight. I'll call you some other time. "

" Okay see ya. " I hang up and finish my homework.

When I finished, I laid on my bed and took a nap.

I woke up to my aunt yelling " Hey Jessica! Dinners ready! "

" Okay! " I yell back and head down stairs.

I walk downstairs and glance at some of the photos in the halls. There's this one photo of my mom and dad on their wedding day. My mom was laughing and my dad was carrying her bridal style. They looked so happy..

I walked downstairs and see my aunt sitting on the couch watching tv and my uncle sitting at the dining room table. They always ate in separate rooms, claiming that they want alone time.

" About dinner, I want you to get it for me. " my uncle says shuffling some of his work papers. He notices my discomfort and looks up at me slowly.

I sighed " Busy again? "

" Yep, I ordered us some Papa Johns. " he slumps back in his chair and puts on his reading glasses. Not before shooing me away.

That's my favorite pizza place, they have amazing cheese sticks which make my mouth water just thinking about them. Their cheese, pepperoni, and customized pizzas are the best. We normally just order the customized pizza with pepperoni, peppers, olives, bacon, and onions. My favorite topping are onions, we order the olives for my uncle though. I don't know how he likes those things.

" Coolio. " I get my keys and just as I'm about to head out the door my uncle says " Be back soon, we have some news. "

" Okay..? " I say confused, almost in a question.

I walk out the door and drive to the nearest Papa Johns. It's only around the corner so it doesn't take long. I could walk but I'd rather drive with the pizzas. I'm afraid I'll drop them.

It's now dark outside and im driving home when all of the sudden something runs right in front of me almost making me hit it.

I swerve to try and avoid it and I succeed just barley, getting back on the road with a quick turn. I take a deep breath and look out of my rear view mirror.

" What the fuck was that?! " I half-yelled, taking my eyes off of my mirror and back on the road after not seeing anything.

I don't know what that was but it was huge.

I suddenly remember why I was in the car and quickly look to my right.

" Oh thank god.. " the pizza was okay

I get home and hold the pizzas in my hand, knocking on the door. I can't open it cause duh, pizza in my hands.

No answer.

" Uhhh... come on guys you gotta answer the door. " I knock again.

My uncle opens the door with his hair messed up and my aunt no where in sight.

" I got the pizza? " I take a glance inside and notice my aunt is gone from her usual spot, making me wonder what's going on.

" Good, your aunt is going to be staying at your Grandmothers house for the night. "

" Why? Did something happen? " I ask

" No, no.. actually there's something I've been meaning to tell you. "

We both walk to the dining room to eat our pizza when I wait for him to explain whatever he needs to. Wait- are they getting a divorce?

" Me and your aunt, have been growing apart lately and I've been disappearing from your life too. " he frowns

" I don't mean to, I have a lot of work to do sometimes and your aunt isn't helping in our case either. Her and I are getting a divorce, we don't see each other the same way anymore after everything that's been going on and we think it's best we part ways. "

He's taking about my parents death..

" I'm sorry I'm going to try and be in your life more, I can't speak for your aunt, but I hope she's feels the same way. "

" Oh... um... "

I tried to speak but really nothing came out. I was speechless. First, he says they're getting a divorce.. they've been happy that I've seen. But I always try and not be around them when I can. I guess that can change. He wants to be in my life now and I guess this can actually work out.

" It's okay to be out of words, I am too. " he smiles.

After we talked some more, I finished eating my pizza and delicious cheese sticks and head out to the back porch. I sit down on the deck and begin reading the book I have yet to read for my honors English class. We have to read Romeo and Juliet, yep that book you just keep hearing about no matter what.

I peacefully read the book for about a half hour when I hear a rustle in the bushes beside me.

I look towards the source... nothing. Maybe just a bunny or something.

I look down at my book again and then I hear the rustling again.

I put down my book and go off of the porch, moving closer to the bushes. I walk towards it and see nothing still. They're pretty tall and big, just about as big as me. I shrug and I start to walk to the porch again, until I hear it again.

I turn around and call out " Who's there? "

I see a pair of gray eyes through the bushes and I scream. I tried to run away but I fell while turning around. I heard it whimper when i tried to get back up.. huh?

What the hell is that?!

The rustling gets louder and a large, beautiful wolf comes out of the bushes. The wolf is all black with gray eyes with little blue specks in them. Why do they seem familiar..? It's honestly really beautiful, and really large, even for a wolf.

" Woah, you are so beautiful, but I didn't think they had wolves in Florida. " I say confused

The wolf does a wolfy grin and slowly walks up to me, seeing if I was possibly a threat or just was scared I'd scream again.

" Don't worry, I love wolves. I think they're fascinating. But I didn't think they were this huge. " I widened my eyes at the thought and the wolf lays down, seeing my expression.

I walk to it and sit down beside it. I reached my hand out to pet the wolfs head and he didn't show any signs of hurting me, so I pet it.

" I'll call you... Sparky. " smiling at the name I had just came up with.

He sticked his tongue out with disgust but I shrugged him off and decided to keep the name. I liked it.

" Too bad your name is Sparky now. "

The wolf leaned into my touch and I felt little sparks in my hand... jumping slightly I pull my hand away. Why did I feel sparks?

The wolf whimpers as it wanted to be petted some more but I realized it was getting late.

" Well I better go to bed, it's pretty late. I hope you'll be here tomorrow. "

I take one last look at the wolf and go inside to sleep. I change into my pjs that are some polka dotted shorts and a matching top and slide into bed.

I fell asleep to the sound of a wolf howling in the distance.
