"Babe," I feel shaking on my left arm. "Babe wake up!" My eyes flutter open to see Blake's lovely blue eyes staring down at me.

"Whaa?" Not able to fully get the world 'what' out.

"It's almost time to join the pack."

"Ugh. Why now? I thought I was gonna meet them at five o'clock? Its so early!" I say trying to get up, but Verdigo hits me hard and I fall back down.

"Sweetheart." Blake says softly.

"What." I snap, not so soft.

"Its almost two! You've been sleeping forever." Blake says with a groan.

"Why didn't you wake me up!?"

"Um, I've been trying to for hours, but as you can see, its taken me this long to even get your eyes to open. And did you know that you are very grouchy when your tierd. The first time I shook you awake you slapped me!" I look at his face and notice that he has a red hand print on his face. I laugh.

"Its so not funny!" Blake whines.

"I'm sorry, but you shouldn't wake a woman when she's sleeping. Especially a werewolf. Your just begging for trouble." I giggle. Blake glares at me, feigning anger. He picks me up bridal style and starts to walk down the stairs to the kitchen. "You should probably eat something before we leave."

"I want," I say, dragging the 't', "a grilled cheese sandwich and a soda."

"Make your own damn food, woman."
Instead of getting evil, I give him the best puppy dog eyes I can muster. "Pretty please with extra bacon on top, Blakey poo?" Using Jake's nickname for Blake. He immediatly softend.

"Ok babe, but only if you don't use that nickname for me. I hate it." He starts to make my sandwich.
************************************
As the rest of the day goes by I start to get nervous. Blake must have felt it becasue he grabs my hand and leads me up the stairs. "Why don't you take a bath? It will help with the nerves." He giudes me through the room and into the bathroom. He starts to fill the tub with water and puts bubble bath in. He grabs a plush robe and hangs it on the door.

"Try to relax madi. Dont worry, everyone will love you. I promise." And then Blake leaves. I undress and step into the Jacuzzi tub. The warm water sooths and loosens my tight joints. This feels amazing.

Your welcome. Blake says cheerfully through the bond. Want me to join you?

Get out of my head! I could almost feel his wagging eyebrows. I don't even reply to his question, I just block him from my thoughts. I sink deeper into the water and close my eyes.

When I get out of the tub, I grab the robe and tie it around my body. I snatch my phone off the counter and check the time. 4:30pm.

Ugh.

I walk into the room and step into the walk in closet. I pick out a pair or dark blue skinny jeans and a peach colored shirt with a brown belt around the torso and a pair of black kitten heels. Simple enough yet cute. I think to myself. I curl my hair and put on light makeup. Once I'm finished getting ready I exit the bathroom and head downstairs.

I walk into the living room to see Blake sitting on the couch in a simple blue t-shirt and jeans. He looks up and see's me enter the room. He turns off the tv and walkes over to me, not saying a word. His arms wrap around my torso as he huggs me. I hug back. Suddenly he picks me up and swings md around in a circle.

"Your so beautiful!" He whispers as he sets me back down.

"Thank you. You know, you didn't have to go all Tarzan on me." I giggle as I guide him back to the couch.
