Unwanted

21

Father, Logan, and Jackson are still completely against the plan. Although Lucas is for it, I don't know if he could convince the others to become on board, since it is quite known that Lucas and i don't really see eye to eye all of the time. So this could be another movie to try and get rid of me, which might seem harsh, but some of the things Lucas and I did to each other when we were younger are much worse.

There was one time with a cat and a pencil that no one talks about, not even to this day.

That is why I have come up with an, amazing, idea, on how to get my two elder brothers on board. Their mates. Father will be a bit harder to convince, seeing as there isn't anyone to convince him besides all of his kids, and only half of us are on board with the idea right now.

I have been making a big deal about everyone not including me in family things since I have been back, but realizing now, I honestly don't even remember my brother’s mates names. I mean, everything has been so crazy, and I can't even remember if I was even told what they were in the first place.

First, I decide I will try and convince Logan’s mate, since Logan and I had a better connection when we were younger. Since they have a baby, I assume tnat I could find them both, in the nursery, which I was right in assuming, because the brown curly hair of Logan’s mate jumps out to me immediately.

“Hey!” I call out as I sit next to Logan’s mate. She jumps a little as she turns to me, obviously not hearing me come up. “So, I know we haven't gotten off to the best start, but you mean everything to Logan, and he is my big brother, so I thought we should talk and get to know each other.” Logan’s mate seems a little confused at first, but nods hesitantly after she has thought over what I said.

“Okay, well, Hi, it is nice to meet you. I am Noah.” I hold my hand out for her to shake, and she takes it, after a short pause. “Hi, Noah. It is nice to meet you, I am Jane.” Jane is a nice name, it fits her too, I can see why her parents gave her that name.

“Cool. Well, I’m sorry that I was kind of an ass these last few days. I just, am having a hard time adjusting to being back.” I apologize. I really just want to get to what I want to ask, but I know I can’t just right off the bat tell her to convince her mate to let me go on this suicide mission. Not that I think it is a suicide mission, I mean. Maybe.

“From what Logan has been ranting about the past few hours it seems as if you don’t really want to stay.” Jade speaks wisely as she eyes me from the corner of her eye. I know that she has figured out why I am really here. Aliyah squeals, causing both of us to look over at her. She crawls over to me and into my lap. I hold her up and smile down at her. I am kind of nervous to be holding her, seeing as what happened last time.

“Yeah, I guess you know why I am here. I mean, I do want to get to know you, but what I really need, right now, is your help.” Jane studies me. I can see how she is going to be an amazing Luna someday, when father is ready to step down.

“Pointing this out, but this does seem very dangerous, going right into enemy territory. I can understand why Logan would be worried for you.” I sigh knowing that this is going to be a hard task, but Jane interrupts me before I can continue. “But, I also can see how important this is to you. I can see how much these gifts have really taken away from you, how you have had to hide in your younger life, and I can see that you don’t want to hide anymore, but you have to, to survive. If I was you, I would do anything to get the freedom you deserve.” I look at Jane in shock. Is she really on my side, have I converted her to see this the way I am looking at it. If I didn’t know better, I would say she can read mind.

“No.” Jane chuckles at my look. “I am not a mind reader. It is all over your face. You just want to be accepted and not have to hide who you are. I understand and I sympathize. And, I will talk to Logan about it too.” I smile brightly at her and lean over, being careful of Aliyah in my lap, and hug her around her shoulders. Jane seems surprised by my actions, but she is family now, so I guess we will both have to get use to it.

“Thank you, I don’t know if anyone knows how much this really means to me, I mean you kind of do, but it is a lot more than just wanting to fit in.” Jane seems thoughtful as she looks into my eyes before smiling.

“Whatever you are hoping to find, I hope you find it.” I smile back at her before getting up. I go to hand Aliyah to her, when her eyes almost seem to glint purple back at me. I freeze as I hold her out in front of me. It wasn’t a coincidence when I had that vision when she hit her head against mine. She was communicating with me, in a way that only someone like me would ever understand.

“You need to come with me. We need to talk to my father again. Maybe this will change his perspective of me going on his mission.”
