"Come on, I'll take you home. Stay with your family for a couple of days, and I'll be back to bring you back here... until you've learned how to get here yourself," I tell him standing up. He nods, and gets up slowly. I turn to Lauren. "You staying here?" she nods, standing up as well. "Then I'll see you when I get back," I laugh, giving her a kiss. I turn back to Andrew, who seemed a bit awkward. Normally, pack members wouldn't care about that kind of stuff, having seen it before, but he was new to the pack, so he'd get use to it eventually.
"My car isn't too far ahead," I tell him, heading in that direction. I had a truck a few years back, but it got destroyed. I got this new car a couple of months ago. We reach it, getting inside as I start up the engine. I wait for a moment or two before driving off to the town. It was silent, and Andrew just seemed to stare out the window. I was done trying. When he was ready, he'd talk.
I pull into town not long after, the car ride almost silent. I come to a stop by a gas station, waiting for him to get out. He opens the door. "Hey," I say, stopping him. He stands outside the car. "I'll be back here two days from now. If I'm not, someone else from the pack will be. Okay?" He looks around for a moment, before replying yes. He shuts the door and I drive off and out of the town. I knew he wouldn't run away, because no matter how scary this might be, he is a part of something out of this world. Something that he won't pass up.
