I quickly pull out my phone from my pocket and see five missed calls and twelve texts from mom. I had put my phone on “do not disturb” during the pack meeting. I go out of the kitchen and into the living room where it’s quieter, without looking at the texts I immediately dial moms phone number. “Mom?” “ LORENZO, LEON,RAMIREZ,” oh no this isn’t going to be good. 

  “I have tried calling you five times, FIVE TIMES, oh and let’s not forget the twelve messages I sent you, TWELVE!” “I know, I know, I’m sorry. I was going to tell you earlier that me, and Felipe were hanging out at my friends house but then I got distracted and-” “LORENZO, I’m not in the mood for excuses, just tell me where you are at so I can come get you.” Oh no, "you don’t need to come get us ma it’s right by the house so we’ll just walk there after we’re done-” “ENZO! Tell my where you are RIGHT NOW!” Moms tone sends shivers down my spine in fear, “okay, okay I’ll send you my location.” “Good!” 

    She hangs up, and I quickly send her the address so I don’t make her even more mad than she already is. I let out a sigh dreading of what’s to come when I get home. Well at least it will be a little while before mom gets here. I think to myself trying to ease my nerves however much I can. “Looks like someone’s in trouble.”

            I turn to see Moonlight leaning against the wall, “y-you heard?” “Yeah, sorry, its a little hard not to hear when you have sensitive hearing.” “Oh, right.” “Ill tell my parents that you have to leave, but until your mom gets here, let’s eat, okay.” Moonlight grabs my hand and leads me back to the kitchen before placing me in front of a counter with food lined in a row. She hands me a plate then goes over to her parents. I start to put the assorted foods on my plate, trying not to take to much. 

  After getting my food I go and take a seat next to Felipe and Leo, “hey, Felipe, moms on her way to get us so eat quickly .” “Aww man, I wanted to spend some more time here its fun.” “ Well maybe we can see if we can come over again sometime.” “Of course you can” Moonlight comes and sits next to me, mariposa following her. “Feel free to come over whenever you’d like.” “ awesome ”, Felipe says excitedly. I look at Moonlight, she’s looking at me with a small smile on her face I copy her smile to show thanks. We then start to eat our food. 

   After we all finish eating, mom still hadn’t arrived yet, we continue to talk with each other and hang out. It’s about ten minutes before we hear a nock at the door. I get up and head for the door Felipe following behind me. We’re not even half way to the door when Mrs. Alezado suddenly pops up in front of the door and opens it. “Hello there you must be Enzos and Felipes mom, I’m Carolina Alezado it’s a pleasure to meet you.” “Oh,  hello I’m Angelica Ramirez it’s nice to meet you as well.” “Angelica what a beautiful name please come in.” Mrs. Alezado takes my moms hand and pulls her into the house. She guides her to the kitchen passing us, and plops her on a seat at the table.

  “Have you eaten yet we have lots of food left if you would like some.” “Oh no thank you I’m not that hungry.” “Well if you change your mind feel free to grab a plate and get what you like.” “O-okay thank you very much but I really think we should be-” “hello mrs.Ramirez I’m Moonlight Alezado, Enzos friend, it’s nice to meet you.” Moonlight gives her hand to shake. “O-oh hello.” “Hey mom.” Me and Felipe nervously walk over to our mom, she gives us a stern look, and me and Felipe both shiver in fear. “I heard Enzo and Felipes mom was hear.” Mr. Alezado walks into the kitchen when a surprised look comes over his face. “Miss  Ramirez.” “Oh Mr. Alezado what are you doing here?” “I’m Moonlights father.” “I see, I guess I didn’t realize the last name.” “You too already know each other?” I ask in confusion. “Si mijo, Mr. Alezado is the owner of the vet clinic I work at.” 

  You’ve got to be kidding me, what a sm- “wow what a small world. Who would have thought that our parents are coworkers.” Moonlight says laughing. “Yeah, who would have thought.”

   The rest of the night was actually pretty fun. It seemed like mom and Moonlights parents were getting along well, and we got to stay their a little longer and hung out. But soon it was time to head home. I said good bye to Moonlight and told her I would see her at school. The drive back home wasn’t that bad ether, mom was still a little upset with me but said that as long as I tell her where I’m going I won’t get in trouble. 

   Once we got home I was so exhausted that I went straight to my room and laid down thinking about everything that just happened. A girl that I just met is supposed to be my mate, and she’s also a werewolf! I mean the fact that werewolf’s exists is crazy, but for some reason I feel oddly calm about this whole situation. Maybe it’s because deep down I somehow know that everything Moonlight and her family told me was true.

 Man, I’m starting to get a headache from all this thinking and questioning, I need to go to sleep. I then shut my eyes and slowly drift asleep.
