-SIX YEARS AGO -

 

It’s been four years since the day you found Sehun. 

Each day and every day both of you grow closer. It’s like an inseparable rope attaches you both closely together. You have the strongest bond. 

Never once you have had this sense of emotion, love and dependence towards someone before. It stuns you at times how everything happened. 

 

You can’t help but to thank God and your mother for Sehun. It’s hard for you to have a father who is constantly out of your house because of his demanding job. It’s even harder to have a grandmother who is always doing house work. Partly never having time to spend time with you like she used to. As you grow older the less your grandmother spends time looking out for you. She still cooks for you, and plays board games with you from time to time. But it’s not the same as it used to. She says that soon you’ll turn into grown woman. That you have to learn how to start taking care of yourself because one day she may not be around you anymore. 

 

Just the thought of not having her around saddens you. It’s like loneliness slowly sets in your heart, causing you to fall slowly and silently into a deep depression. Your to young to feel that way. Your twelve. Still a baby. And yes it gets lonely, not being able to talk to anyone. Because lets face it. Your house is atlas three acres away from your neighbors. Thats the saddest thing of living in Woodfork Springs. The whole town is surrounded and dived by the woods. 

 

Your to young to find your way around the place by yourself. And it’s not like your grandmother would let you go to any of your school friends house for a playdate. She can barely muster a perfectly composed sentence in Korean. How will she be able to communicate? 

 

At times questions will pop into your brain of how on earth has your grandmother been able to live here for so long and have no way of being able to communicate with others. It must be just as lonely to her as it is for you. Maybe thats why she business her self with house work?

At least you have Sehun. 

 

He is always with you. Every single place you go he follows you like an obedient dog does with it’s owner. The only thing is he isn’t quite a dog but a wolf.

When he was just a pup you could barely notice the difference. He was small, with short fat legs and adorable pointy ears and white fur. He looked like husky! Only that he was white furred . Not relish, gray or furred. 

Now that time has passes he has grown way taller, stronger, muscular and his wold features are not unnoticeable like they where before. Every time he growls you can notice his canines sharper than they used to.

Thats why you couldn’t exactly take him out of home with you. 

 

You wishes you could walk him to school with you and your grandmother but you feared he would scare your school peers away. 

Wolfs weren’t really considered pets in Woodfork Sprins. Or nowhere for that fact, yet your father was a good friend of the Mayor, and because of his dedicated hard for towards the towns citizens they let you keep Sehun as long as he stayed in your house territory. 

Your father agreed to the terms and he specifically told you if they weren’t followed they would remove Sehun from your care.

 

You wouldn’t want that so you reached him obedience.  It took you about a year and a half to get Sehun to properly follow orders but once he did  there was nothing you had to worry about. 

 

He knows the border line, of your property from the neighbors and never once has he crossed and become a problem. 

He really is as saint as he can ever be.

You taught him how to open the door of your room if you ever accidentally lock him out.

You taught him how to ask for food as well as how to ask when he wants to go outside to pee or just run around and be free. Well of course with the help of your father. But still, you managed to do it. 

 

Your grandmother didn’t used to like the idea of having Sehun around but once she saw he was like a dog. A good pup who followed your every command she became to warm up to him.

Up to the point were she would spoil him with home made snacks and knitted clothes for him to wear on winter time. 

 

It dazed you how she change as time passed by. How her love for Sehun grew. 

 

Currently you are getting ready to take Sehun for a stroll in the park as well as review some tricks you reached him this past week. 

Your sitting down on your comfy, bed. Putting on your socks when you feel a furry head cuddle against your arm. Softly nudging your arm up, signalling her wants you to pet him.

You chuckle as you finish pulling your up before your hand slowly makes its way up to his hair.

Slightly teasing him for his impatience. He growled at you because of your slow pace before nudging your arm once again. 

 

You laugh out loud to yourself at his cuteness before you catch a pair of baby blue orbs glaring at you. 

You have no idea how to explain Shuns expressions at time. Even if he is a wold, and he can’t actually muster much emotion out of his eyes you feel like he is human. 

The way he stares at you at times make you think that maybe there is more to him that what you think. Like the way he softly gazes at you when your sad, or the way he narrows his orbs at you when he is mad at you, the way his eyes sparkle when he notices your happiness or the way he playfully glares at you like he is just doing. 

 

It’s not normal for an animal to be able to express it’s self that way. Such human like, that is. Then again you don’t know much about wolves. Which you make a mental note to yourself to ask your grandmother for that old folks tale book she brought from Japan the last time she visited your uncle.

 

You smile as you run your small, slender hands down his silky, fluffy fur. Causing him to softly purr in satisfaction as his head rubs itself against your sweat pant covered legs.

You gaze tenderly at him, as affection flows out of your every cell. 

You love Sehun very much. 

He is your partner in crime for everything.

 

When you want to be naughty and grab a cookie from your grandmothers cookie plater without her permission. Knowing she said no because you tend to get a sugar rush if you eat to many at once. Shun distracts her while you make your ninja roll, just for a little flair of drama before grabbing the cookies out of the tray.

 

Once you accomplish your cookie mission you give him the thumbs up and he just vanishes out of your grandmother sight into your room. Leaving her flabbergasted by his sudden need of attention tantrum. 

 

You would sit next to your bed, munching on your cookies while Sehun would lay next to you as he gazed pleased that you where happy. 

You would his white fur and kiss him all over his face.

He would growl affectionately at you once he got tiered of your smooching all over him. before he’d lay his head down on your tights. Closing his eyes and falling asleep. Happy. 

 

Or like how he’d jump out of your bed at night, and scan the premisses of your living room before you, to see if anyone was still awake before you’d both sit yourself in the small,  yet comfy velvety couch. To have a re-run of Puka.  Then again your all nighter wouldn’t last long since your laugh would give you away most of the time. Other times you’d just crash asleep a few minutes after you’d start to watch the episodes.

 

Sehun would stay glued to your side,every single minute. 

Watching over you. 

 

Memories race through your mind, one after the other. 

All of them of does happy moments you have shared with Sehun. 

There hasn’t been one single bad memorie of anything, yeah, of course you have been angry at him. It happens but the good things you have experienced by his side cause a broad smile to spread on your lips. 

 

He is the cause of your happiness this past few years. He has helped you move on, and not stay murning for your mothers death. Or the fact that your mostly on your own. 

 

As memories play in your mind you feel Shuns tongue your lip causing you to snap out of your memory train and gag. 

 

You stare at him wide eyed at him. Who looked pleased by your reaction. If he was human a smug smile would be playing on his lips as hint of naughtiness sparked on his eyes. 

Yet he didn’t have to be human for you to notice the tip of his lip lifting upward as his eyes sparkle with a playful glint.

 

You frown at him as you rub your lip clean with the sleeve of your long sleeve shirt.

You gag again before glaring at the wolfie who was rolling on the ground howling in happiness. 

You liked Sehun’s adorable kisses, but never on the lips. 

You hated the sense you felt of his pinkish, rough tongue your lip. Leave it wet with his saliva. 

And Sehun nows how you felt about him doing it. Because you have scolded him multiple times before. Yet it looks like he decided to get under your skin today. 

 

You point your index finger at him with a frown playing your lips as your brows furrow together, causing a few almost unnoticeable lines appear on your forehead. Signaling your made state.  

“Sehun! Stop that! You know how much i don’t like it”

You wine as the poor pup stares up at you with innocence filled orbs.  Acting as if he understood nothing of what you where saying or as if he knew nothing about the situation. 

 

You wrinkle your nose in anger. You hated when he tried to pull your heart strings with his puppy look. It made you weak and he knew it. 

 

“Do that again, and you’ll be grounded for a week without going outside to play! only for peeing and pooping!”

You threatened. 

 

Right before turning on your heel. Heading out of your room with a pouty look, towa
