I press my face against the window for the millionth time in the past five hours, before asking Zane, who's more concerned about getting us home, "Why are we in a two-person car again?" "Because," Zane lectures, "we can't let anyone know you're a werewolf, and there's no way I'm letting you drive yourself home. You might crash into a fire hydrant, for Irene's sake." "Can we at least pick up snacks?" I mumble, my stomach growling. "No," "Why not?" "Two reasons. One, I don't want to go broke, and, two, we're just ten minutes away," "Fine," I roll my eyes. "I don't like this attitude young man," Zane dads, grinning, or I'm assuming grinning. Kind of hard to tell with that mask of his. "Though I do wonder... " "Wonder what?" "Wonder how Eight will react," It takes me a hot second to count the letters of everyone one the streets' names' - everyone who wasn't at Starlight, that is. I then realize Eight is Laurance. "Why do you think that?" I raise an eyebrow. "Oh, I dunno," my baby brother starts sarcastically, "maybe it's because he lives with us." "Oh yeah," I've dealt with the passersby on Starlight while on the run from the Guardian Forces, but I didn't know them and they didn't know me. I wonder how my actual friends will react, and how they will take it. I started humming "I'll Make A Man Out Of You" from Mulan and finished just as we parked into our driveway. My brother starts to open the trunk, but I lightly brush him aside, stating, "Baby brother, you've been driving for seven hours. The least I can do is get the luggage." "All right," Zane zanes, clearly unhappy. I carry the luggage inside, grateful that Zane opens the door for me, grateful that my tail is tucked into my pants, grateful that the bags cover my ears, grateful that I'm home. Someone rushes, either down or up the stairs, I can't tell from here, and I hear that all-to-familiar voice I haven't heard in a while, "Garroth? Zane?" I almost drop the baggage in my hands.
