My Brother's Best Friend Is My Mate

After Melissa left, I told mom I was heading back to Spencer's house. I told her I would get home soon, and since it was getting late, she packed up and left the store.

I frowned. "A question can't answer a question Spencer." She turned to face me. "What are you, 5 years old?", she rolled her eyes. I laughed and followed her as she went in the kitchen. She took a water bottle out of the fridge and handed one to me. She seemed anxious, like she wanted to leave but someone or something was preventing her from doing that. Probably me. A notification popped up on her phone and her eyes widened. "I'm sorry Emerald, something came up", she said as she ran top speed to the front door. "Go home, it's not safe. I'll talk to you later", she yelled over her shoulder. She was running towards the woods. "You're going the wrong way", I shouted but Spencer had long gone. That was... queer. I stood there, in shock for awhile before I got in my car and drove home like Spencer said. Someone ran out of my house, obviously in a hurry. I recognized it as...... Liam? What the hell was he doing
