A week later

"Won't you join us for a bit, Y/N?" Claire pleaded, her eyes wide with excitement as she sat on the soft blanket laid flat on the lime grass. Bronwyn, who sat across her, had the same adorable expression.

I gave in one last time, before sighing and happily plopping myself down beside them. Claire placed her dainty little fingers around one of the plastic cups' handles and lifted it up.

"A toast!" She bellowed with great happiness and I smiled.

Our teacups collided with a small sound. Looking away, I notice someone walk out the door and my insides turned to mush as I saw who it was.

Enoch.

It had been over an entire week since he asked me to be his girlfriend. I was just as happy even before we started dating, so I guess the labels didn't really make a difference. They just made things official, that's all.

It'd always been a habit of mine to look back at my life before I was sent to Wales - only this time, it became a stronger habit. I even found myself crying one late evening after waking up from a horrible dream. But Enoch woke up coincidentally as I started crying and he entered my room at once, hearing my quiet cries.

"I'm here, and I'll never leave you. Don't cry."

[craft]

I remember hearing the words leaving his lips. To anyone, it might've sounded cheesy and unnecessary, but to me, it was special.

Enoch was special.

"Hey, love."

I hear the words dangle from out his lips, creating a beautiful melody that I could listen to for days. Enoch's hand rests on my shoulder as I gaze up at him as he blocked the sunlight.

My chapped lips twist into a smile. "Can you join us, Enoch?" Bronwyn asks and I see Claire frown slightly.

"I'd rather drown myself in your tea then drink it at your party," Enoch remarked, and I almost wanted to hit him for saying that to the poor child.

"Enoch," I scolded, seeing his eyebrows relax and eyes looking at me.

"Fine,"

We were all sat around the table for lunch when I had felt a familiar feeling in my stomach. It churned continuously, and deciding it would be a good idea to check my hands, I did.

The claws were starting to form.

"Enoch?" I called out to him as everyone turns to look at me. My voice was pure panic, and was shaking violently. So were my fingers. I was even more scared than I was before, which I didn't even know was possible.

"Yes, love?"

I lifted my hands to show him. His eyes looked glossy and almost full of guilt.

"I'm sorry." He whispered, caressing one side of my cheek and pressed a kiss to my lips. Getting everyone to help him, they rushed me outside as I saw darkness once again.
