Dear Diary,

Ty is a wolf. His wolf tells him we are mates, soul mates.

I think I'm going to sleep in a different room from him tonight; in this room across the hall with the purple walls.

I just don't know what to think anymore.

I will tell you when I decide how I feel about all this...

~Aria

I put Diary back in my backpack and pulled out Twilight. The book seems real now. I picture Ty as Jacob however the vampire is winning.

"Hey Ar," I heard Ty say.

I looked up and then set my book down.

"Are you, or do you, can you just come to bed?" he stuttered.

"I think I want to sleep in here tonight," I whispered.

"Is it because you can't walk?" he hopefully asked.

"No," I carefully answered. I watched pain fill his features.

"Is it because you're mad at me or because you are scared of me?" he asked.

"I don't know Tyson," I replied.

"You don't know?" he asked.

"How I feel," I clarified.

"Are you scared of me right now?" he asked.

"Yes," I carefully answered.

"Why, Ar you know I would never hurt you," he stated.

"You're scary when you're mad or when you don't get what you want," I whispered. I knew he heard me. It actually explains a lot. When my voice was barely audible to myself Ty could always hear me, because he's a wolf so he has spectacular hearing.

"I never want you scared of me, but I don't think you are Aria," he replied.

"What?" I asked.

"You're a strong person. You came here and away from your dad. You find out I'm a werewolf and here I stand in the same room as you. You talked to me when you wouldn't to anyone else. I was the first person to make you laugh and smile in a long time, or hug," he finished.

"Ty," I started to say.

"That is why I am completely and unconditionally in love you with you, it has nothing to do with my wolf," he stated.

I gasped. Ty is in love with me?

LOVE!

Love?

Love.

Ty loves me. Do I love Ty?

"Say something," he pleaded.

"Ty I-I," I stammered.

"Don't say it back until you feel it, I just want to let you know I'm not going anywhere and I will always be here for you. Tonight it may be across the hall, but know you can come to me anytime and I will be waiting," he stated.

"Goodnight Ar," he added and then he left.

I breathed in and out a few more times. Pull yourself together Arrabella!

I sighed. I like Ty a lot, but love? It is a foreign thing to me. I don't know what it is like to be loved or what it's like to love. I mean I guess I love Trevor but I never experienced it because he was gone before I even got to say hi.

My dad never said I love you. My mom did, but it wasn't like how Ty just said it and not just because he means it in a different way.

When Ty said it, it felt, magical. Like no matter what I'm safe; safe another foreign thing to me.

I groaned when did my life get so complicated? Oh wait I know the answer since the day I was born!

I really want to go into Ty's room. I don't like being across the hall. However he was right earlier I still can't walk, but maybe some space will be good for us.

I can handle space I just have to think of something else.

No Ty thoughts starting now.

***************************************************

I woke up cold, but I don't think I am alone. I opened my eyes and looked at the clock that read that it is five in the morning. I looked over and sighed when Ty wasn't there, but that is my fault.

Then why do I feel Ty's presence? It isn't until I look down when I see Ty asleep on the floor!

He looks so peaceful; I throw a pillow at his face and laugh.

"Arrabella?" he asked while sitting up.

"Why are you in here?" I asked.

"I missed you and I wanted to make sure you didn't leave or anything," he sheepishly admitted.

"I still can't walk Ty," I stated while rolling my eyes.

I watched as concern and some pain flash through his eyes.

"It didn't wear off yet?" he asked.

"Nope," I shrugged while yawning.

"You should go back to sleep," he suggested.

"What's wrong?" I asked him.

"Hmm?" he asked.

"What's wrong?" I repeated.

"If you could walk would you leave?" he asked.

"No," I replied.

"Okay," he shrugged while lying back down on the floor.

"Why would you think that?" I asked, oh because I just said that.

"It was sarcasm Ty even if my legs worked I wouldn't leave," I laughed.

"Okay Aria, I just worry," he chuckled.

"I know you do," I sighed.

"Night Arrabella," he sang.

"Hey Ty?" I asked.

"Yeah," he replied.

"You can sleep up here, if you want to," I stated.

"Do you want me to?" he questioned.

"Yes," I answered.

"Great," he chuckled.

"You would have ended up here anyways," I accused.

"Goodnight Arrabella," he chuckled.

"Night Tyson," I mocked while closing my eyes and easily falling back to sleep.

************************************

I woke up and was happily surprised when I could move my legs.

I sat up and yawned. I then looked over at Ty who was still asleep next to me, or so I thought.

I went to get off the bed when Ty grabbed my arm.

"Where are you going?" he asked, his eyes still shut.

"Uh, the bathroom," I replied.

"Hurry," he grumbled while releasing me.

"I will take all the time I need," I sang while walking across the hall into his room and then into the bathroom.

When I was finished I walked back into the bedroom and lay back down with Ty.

"I missed you," he mumbled into the pillow while grabbing me.

"I was gone for like three minutes," I replied.

"That's one hundred and eighty seconds," he added.

"Not long at all," I mumbled against his chest.

"Hey Ar," he stated.

"Mhh," I replied.

"I love you," he whispered while kissing my head.

"Goodnight Ty," I whispered and then let myself once again fall asleep in Tyson's arms.
