Six days, seven hours, and twenty-two minutes. That is how long Teagan has been gone for. No one knows where she went or why she went but the only thing that mattered to me what that she even left. Her mom broke up the news in the morning. No one had noticed she left. Everyone thought she went to sleep. Her mom said that she needed time away from everything and something about heading north to visit a family member. Her mom didn't look happy, so I assumed she didn't like this particular family member. Teagan told everyone not to look for her because she was coming back soon. I couldn't believe she just left like that.

I wonder sometimes if it was because of me or something else...

Teagan

I knocked on the door, waiting for someone to answer. I heard faint footsteps and someones voice. I was smiling. Happy, carefree, smiling. I spent the week at my Aunt Ellie's up in Washington, and no...not Forks. In Seattle, Washington. She is the coolest aunt ever! Ellie had long red-hair, which now I know where Percy got his hair, and a tall, curvy figure. She had sparkling blue eyes and pale skin, with a dimple on each of her cheeks. She has smile lines, from which I could tell she smiled and laughed a lot. She was so pretty and happy, that I envied her. Seh was like a teenage girl. She had an iphone, a Mac, she even knew how to use Facebook. She loved Usher and all those artists. She was a teenager in an adults body. But of course, she had to work, so I went to work with her to help her. She was a designer, so she had her own hours.

 We did nothing but talk this week. About everything. About Luke and him being my mate, Carrie, and how I should deal with it. I told Ellie everything I was feeling and she was open minded and never judged me. I told her about the rape, how Carrie betrayed me, which I told no one about, and how I decided to become a whore. She didn't interrupt nor did she tell me what I did was wrong or right. That's why I loved her. After I told her everything, she told me everything about her young life. That's when I realized how similar our lives are. Ellie's mate also abandoned her for another girl, but the reason why he left her was because the girl was an Alpha's daughter and he wanted power. She told me that it took six years and another love interest to finally realize that she was better off without him. When I asked her if he came back, would she take him back, she answered,

"I'm not sure, honey. I mean, he totally denied me. But I do love him, no matter how much of an ass he is. I have never really thought about it, to tell you the truth.." I thought about that for a second. I know where she is coming from but I don't know, if Luke ever asked for me back, what I would do...

After the week was up, I knew exactly what I should do. So to start out, I called Dave and told him the gig was up, then I called my mom and told her I was fine, and then I got a makeover. Instead of my brown tips and black hair, I dyed my hair caramel with blonde streaks, then I got a faint tan, and I started wearing less makeup. So that meant no eye shadow or lip gloss. Just mascara and eyeliner.

My aunt new I was a..erm..slut, so she said to embrace it if Luke can't accept me, then why change? So now I was back and better than ever. Currently, I was wearing short-shorts, a v-neck, and Vans. I was a new and improved whore. My brother, Nate, opened the door. He looked at me, up and down, then grimaced. I rolled my eyes.

"Well...aren't you going to say hi?" I asked him, smiling. He sighed but then cracked a grin and enveloped me into a hug. We hugged for about ten seconds then he let go and narrowed his eyes at me. Oh boy. "Why the hell did you leave!?" Mom, dad, Percy, and I were worried sick! You just up and left out of no where on the camping trip!" He scolded me. I sighed and hung my head. "I'm sorry, but things were driving me to the edge and I couldn't take it so I went to Aunt Ellie's in Seattle and she helped me figure some things out." He smiled knowingly. I noticed no one else was home, so it was just me and Nate. We started walking over to the living room.
