It's like the world changes when you find out that the monsters of storybooks don't live in the pages alone. Iris was raised in fairytales and monster movies that had at the least twenty years on her. It's not hard to put them off when you always see supernatural beings as fiction. But then, you lose the people who taught you not to fear them, falling backwards into the arms of her mother's best friend. More specifically the husband of her mother's best friend.
And you have to build yourself up, find ways to deal with it, even if it may be new and strange. You find your people, even if at times you wish they were no where near you. But then, the energy in the air gets stagnant and the people you trust seem to change right before your eyes. And you realize that perhaps, the worlds of fiction and your own world may blend in ways you once thought only belonged to folklore.

The Confused Participant
Iris Hall
"How did I go from a girl living with her parents to being an honorary wolf pack member in the background of someone else's romance novel?"
It's nice to have a friend-Taylor Swift
"Light pink sky up on the roof
Sun sinks down, no curfew
Twenty questions, we tell the truth
You've been stressed out lately? Yeah, me too
Something gave you the nerve
To touch my hand
It's nice to have a friend"
♡The She Wolf
Leah Clearwater
"Wait, so you knew? Did Embry tell you? God, you can't trust anyone in this pack with anything."
Fake Smile-Ariana Grande
"I can't fake another smile
I can't fake like I'm alright
Ooh, ah (ooh, ah)
And I won't say I'm feeling fine
After what I been through, I can't lie
Ooh, ah (ooh, ah)
Fuck a fake smile, smile"
♡The Best Friend
Embry Call
"As the person who sat and watched seven monster movies with you the week you moved in with Billy, I know you can handle a werewolf."
Backyard Boy- Claire Rosinkranz
"Love to feel the fresh air
I can feel your eyes stare
And I'm not gonna lie
I get a little bit scared
My heart is on wings
I'm living in dreams
And at the top of our lungs we sing"
♡The "Matchmaker" Brother
Seth Clearwater
"So basically what I'm saying is. Your biology says ask her out, do it."
Take Care of Yourself-Maisie Peters
"I hate how you talk to yourself
It's not weak if you need to be held
So cut off a little slack
And roll all your cavalry back
My love, take care of yourself"
♡The Brother Figure
Jacob Black
"You've been ignoring me right along with Embry! You don't have the right to act like you care now!"
Mr. Loverman-Ricky Montgomery
"The ways in which you talk to me
Have me wishin' I were gone
The ways that you say my name
Have me runnin' on and on
Oh, I'm cramping up
I'm cramping up
But you're cracking up
You're cracking up"
♡The Vampire's Human
Bella Swan
"Last summer was the best summer of my life and then he left."
1 step forward, 3 steps back-Olivia Rodrigo
"You got me fucked up in the head, boy
Never doubted myself so much
Like, am I pretty? Am I fun, boy?
I hate that I give you power over that kind of stuff"
