Lunch time came around and he wasn't back yet. Who runs for hours at a time?

Rylee had left to go grab some things for tonight. I had showered and was patiently waiting for him to return. Making myself another coffee I grabbed my phone as it started ringing. "Hello"...

"Babe I'm sorry I can't make it. The pack-....

"It's always the pack". I sighed. The line went quiet. He knew I was right. Every time we planned to do something he bailed. "It's fine I'll see you whenever". I hung the phone up before he could respond.

I knew the pack was important, but every now and then it would be nice to come first. Slipping my feet into my sneakers I grabbed my bag and headed home.

I wasn't pissed about it because I understand when the pack needs him he has to be there but I was a little annoyed. I was looking forward to spending the afternoon together.

Crossing the street and walking the short distance home I noticed my aunt Claire car in the drive. I hadn't heard from Carter since last night. His head pickled with deciding on what to do.

The smell of vanilla hit my nose as soon as I stepped inside. The living room was immaculate, some of the furniture had been moved around.

"Hi honey". My aunt Claire appeared at the kitchen door. "I hope you don't mind that I cleaned up a little. You're grans coming home on Monday".

"She is?". It was like a weight had been lifted off my shoulders. All the worry gone. Relief sailed through my body. I couldn't wait to get her home. "She is". She smiled. "Sit down I'll make you some lunch". I followed her into the kitchen taking a seat. "I met your principal today".

I had completely forgot about the meeting.

"Don't look so scared. You're going back to school on Monday". She placed a cup of coffee next to me.

"I am?". Everything was working out fine. Everything I was stressing about gone. My gran was coming home and I was going to get to graduate. "Yes honey. Mr Gallagher owes you an apology and I'm sure you'll get it on Monday".

"He does?". I frowned.
