“Kim, I’m a werewolf. I know it’s hard to believe, but please just don’t run away or scream. Please.” I continued to tell Kim about the werewolf history. I told her everything and when I say everything I mean everything. From vampires, to phasing, to imprinting.

“Jared, why are you telling me all this. From what you’re saying this is supposed to be a really big secret. Why are you telling me?”

I was so scared to answer her question. I knew that if she ran away, I could never go on any longer.

“Because Kim, I’ve imprinted on you.”

She looked me hard in the eyes for a couple of minutes. My confidence was slowing diminishing by the second and everything was turning into a haze. I was just about to turn and run away into the woods when her soft voice broke through my haze.

“Really Jared? I’ve always loved you. I was just waiting for you to figure that out.” She smiled the most beautiful smile I’ve ever seen. The only smile I will ever want to see for the rest of my life.

When I see your smile,
Tears roll down my face.
I can't replace.

I felt tears coming to eyes with such relief and joy that I could hardly contain the huge grin coming to my face. Then I realized that I didn’t want to contain that grin. I wanted Kim to know exactly how she made me feel everyday. I wanted her to know that I loved her with every fiber of my being and that I would do anything just for her. If she ever wanted to be anything else than in a romantic relationship with me (though I wished this would never happen) I would deal with it just for her. I would be whatever she wanted me to be.

And now that I'm stronger, I have figured out,
How this world turns cold and it breaks through my soul.
And I know I'll find deep inside me,
I can be the one.

“Kim, you complete me. Everything that you are is what I want to be. You’ve turned my world upside down just by being with you and if it meant that I would never be right side up again, who am I to challenge that. You are like a bright light that shines on every dark corner of my life. Without you, I wouldn’t exist.” I used every ounce of sincerity in my voice to make her believe that what I was saying was the absolute 100 truth.
