As the next few days passed the more antsy Salem became. He used Derek's technique to calm himself down if he felt the wolf inside him threatening to appear. His anchor was his brother, the one person he could count on for everything, he loved Thomas. 

Somehow it wasn't working as quickly as before so after school today he'd go find Derek and see what was up. Just as the final bell rang he was just about to close his planner when his green eyes landed on the date. "Today's the 8th, right?" he asked one of his friends and they confirmed he was correct.

"Shit." Salem grabbed his stuff with haste and ran out of the room. He had to go to Derek, NOW. He didn't even bother with the seat belt as he sped down the road to the forest where Derek lived. The hike there would take no time since the moment he got out of his car and wolfed out, claws sprouting and fangs elongating. 

It wasn't fair. Everyone else had found their twin when they went through puberty. Derek didn't know what went wrong. He was in his 20's and he hadn't found other-Derek, and his family was starting to talk. 'Never going to find him', they whispered, 'stunted development, he's always going to be be so surly and quiet', they said behind closed doors. It was the main reason why he didn't have many friends. He didn't want to get close to somebody and still know that they weren't his soul mate.

I blame Jeff! Lydia was ‘suppose’ to struggle with Jackson leaving; All I noticed was her screwing hot guys. That’s not struggling, she doesn’t even mention him like twice.. I still think Jeff needs to stand aside and let another writer take over.

Plus lets face it, took her no time at all to get over him; Technically with the time line given it was only a few weeks.. That sure was some strong love! xD
