I’m just trying to protect people.

I opened the passenger door as Midnight jumped inside. I closed door.

“Before you leave, promise us you’ll at least make one friend. You can’t live your life by yourself.” My grandpa point out.

“You guys know why I don’t have friends. It’s too risky.” I defended.

“Artemis. Promise us.” He grabbed my shoulders.

“OK. I promise I’m make a friend.” I gave in.

They both smiled. “You have to leave know if you don’t want to deal with traffic. Here’s your glasses.”

She handed me, my pair of fake glasses.

I only wear them when I’m out in public or when I’m driving, so if a wolf picks up my scent they won’t suspect I’m Robin Hood.

I slid them on my face. “Thanks. I love you guys.”

I pulled them into another hug.

I pulled away and got in the drivers seat.

I opened the window to the passenger seat so Midnight can stick her head out the window.

She barked ‘goodbye’ to my grandparents as I drove off.

I turned on the radio. I started listening to random songs.

I started to mouth the words.

After a couple of hours, Midnight fell asleep.

I closed the window and looked at her sleeping curled up body.

She’s so cute.

I focused my attention back to the road.

After long hours full of driving, gas stations, and drunk perverts, I finally made it to my new house.

It was in the woods, obviously.

It had a master bedroom and two guest bedrooms.

It was nice.

I parked in the driveway. Midnight start d to stir around in her sleep until her eyes opened.

She saw the house in front of us and wagged her tail in joy as she barked.

I smiled at her as I hope out of the car and opened the door on her side.

She jumped out and ran to the door. I catched up to her and unlocked the door.

She ran inside and started sniffing around.

I took a quick look around the house.
