Next morning when they all woke up and we had eaten breakfast, I asked if they wanted to swim again. This time, they all wanted to. They ran in, changed to swimwear and then came out. I could hear Jaehyun scream and he came out with a bloody bite mark on his shoulder. He hurried over to me.

“What happened?” I asked in worry. “Who bit you?”

“Sunwoo”, Jaehyun answered, glaring at the raccoon who came out of the house.

“Why would you do that?” I snarled at Sunwoo.

“My teeth are aching?” he said as if it was normal. “Give me a chew toy.”

“I’ll get you something later.”

“Can I chew on your hand then? I won’t do it hard...but my teeth…”

“Later, maybe, okay? I need to take care of Jaehyun now.”

Sunwoo nodded.

—♤—

When we came to the lake they all jumped in, but me and Sunwoo.

“Why can’t you bite on a stick or something?”

He whined slightly with puppy eyes. Seemed like he had been spending a lot of time with Jacob.

"Fine, but if you drool all over my hand, lick it, or make it bleed, you're sleeping outside tonight", I threatened.

"Got it!"

He took my hand and started to bite like a puppy. His teeth were really sharp, but he was being careful. Thank God there weren't any other people on the little beach.

"You know his scent will stay on you for like forever, right?" Sangyeon asked as he came up from the water. "That's a scenting method."

"You're kidding." I turned to Sunwoo. "Your teeth aren't aching, are they?"

"No, but now you're wearing my scent." He smirked before running off into the water.

I sighed in frustration.

That motherfucker…

"Y/N, you should come into the water", Sangyeon said and held out his hand. "Come on."

"I'm coming, I'm coming", I sighed and took his hand, following him into the water.

I shivered at the temperature, but got used pretty quickly. We swam around, played and I made sure that they wouldn’t kill each other.

“Y/N!” a voice shouted from the beach.

I turned and saw a boy and a girl stand there, waving. They were Kyle and Jen, the only friends had here. We had been friends since we were children. I was surprised that they came here at the same time as me. With a smile, I made my way up to the beach.

“Who are these?” Kyle asked, nodding at my hybrids in the water.

“My hybrids. It’s a long story”, I said. “Boys, come and say hi.”

They came out of the water, mumbling a 'hey'.

“They’re probably just shy”, I said. “Don’t worry.”

I could see Jen’s eyes wandering over their bodies. I sighed and snapped my fingers in front of her eyes.

“Stop it”, I said. “Snap out of it.”

“What happened there?” Kyle asked and pointed at Jaehyun’s shoulder.

“Sunwoo bit me”, Jaehyun mumbled and glared at the raccoon.

“You deserved it”, Sunwoo mumbled back.

“Just because I can’t bite as hard-”

“Guys”, I said. “Calm.”

“Okay, Y/N”, both answered.

“You can continue playing, I’ll talk to my friends for a moment.”

And now you may wonder "Molly, why is there so many pics of that road?"

Lets just say that...this road is therapy for me. I walk this road every evening when I'm at my summer house and have been doing that since 2012. Its comforting me very much♡
