When Ginger got out of the castle she ran straight for the woods. Her spot, Her Home. The only thing left of her besides her family was dead and she was the only one alive. She sighed and sat down. Now that she could control when she can transform. She remembered meeting seth in the woods and being close to him. The memories were killing her. A couple tears fell sown her cheek.

Music blared through the earphones and pounded against Seth's eardrums. He was tapping his fingers with the harsh beat of the song he was listening to. The words were practically gibberish, since the singers screamed every single syllable. But he didn't care that much. It helped him keep his mind off all the craziness going on in his life. His eyes were boring into the blank white wall of his dormitory, just above the window. He'd been staring at it for the last half hour, practically. This place is ancient, he thought, there's a crack running through the plaster. God knows how long it's been like that. Abruptly, the music cut off. "What the?" He muttered, picking up his ipod. The system seemed to have run out of batteries. Seth sighed, throwing it down onto his bed, and yanking his earphones out. He listened to the sudden buzzing silence, for a moment. Great, he thought bitterly. A sudden movement outside his window caught his eye. He glanced outside, surprised to see a familiar gait stride across the lawn toward the forest. Ginger? What's she doing there? He wondered. He grabbed his jacket, and ran towards the forest. He ran through it, almost tripping over Ginger when he finally found her. "Hey," he huffed for a second before catching his breath. "What are you doing here? You do know the forest is off limits to students."

Ginger turned around, eyes all red from crying. Why did she come back to the havens? To find her love and to explain everything. Well, I really don't care if it is. She said turning back to the tree. Everything was falling apart.

Seth bit his lip. She's been crying? He cringed when her thoughts shouted out to him in a scream. Even though he tried to avoid reading people's minds, sometimes their thoughts screamed out. Something he couldn't control. He wondered how he should react. A more than small part of him wanted to yell at Ginger for leaving. The other part felt sympathetic, and was willing to forgive. He sat down on the ground, next to Ginger, not looking at her but at the dirt near his feet. "You know how the Havens burned down?" Seth asked, in effort to break the awkward tension. "I thought I'd lost everything when that happened; Abel, the only place I'd call home, and my only connection to you." He said the last part in a hushed tone, fighting to keep the memories at bay. They flashed in front of his eyes anyway. Abel bleeding, the Havens bright red with flames with black smoke curling towards the dark sky. He pushed the thoughts out of his mind, and turned to look at Ginger. "I kind of know how you feel right now," he said. He tried to give her a smile. "I'm sorry that you think everything's falling apart."

She was still facing the tree when he was sitting next to her. She had almost given up and let herself turn into the monster she was supposed to be but didnt. She turned around and looked at seth. I left the Havens cause I was afraid, I did this for you! So I wouldn't become one of those nasty evil pets that the scientists have. She said quietly and then balled her eyes out.

Seth frowned. "The scientists?" He asked, confused. He cringed when Ginger started crying. If there was one thing he hated, it was girls crying. "Ginger..." He trailed off, not knowing what to say. He awkwardly put an arm around her. "It's okay... You're safe now..." Seth said lamely. He mentally slapped himself in the forehead. Idiot! How's saying that going to make her stop crying? He ran a hand through his dark brown hair in frustration at himself.

Ginger felt his arm on her, At first she wanted to slap it but then she felt relieved. Im sorry for everything. I just had to run cause of the transformations. They were getting out of control and when I left, I found a lab that could help me. They did but they wanted to make me into something else. She said. Then a thought went through her head, Seth, Do you love me? she asked being calm now.

Seth stiffened at the word 'lab'. He could suddenly smell antiseptic and he felt needles stab him and sink into his flesh. He felt like crawling into a hole because of those images, but somehow kept his ground against them. He barely registered what Ginger had asked. When he did, the memories were flushed out. He was stunned. Do I? He wondered. He shifted his hands so they were clasped together, and twiddled with his thumbs. Seth looked at Ginger and frowned. "I don't know," he said quietly.

When Ginger saw him stiffen up there was a puzzle on her face. Seth, you okay? She asked. She sighed and wanted to cry again when she herd his answer. I know I hurt you badly by leaving. If I didn't then I probably be a full werewolf by now and i would be tearing people apart or i would be dead. She said.
