Wolf Hearts

Ms. Iero was walking into her house, a present behind her back. She finally got the tickets and there was a house waiting for them when they got there.
"Frank? Come out, I've got something to show you!"
She flicks on the light switch and screams, all along the halls there was blood, chunks of something, and a gun. Ms. Iero ran towards the phone, but her fingers stopped before pressing anything, there was a white note strapped to the phone. She grabbed it quickly and started reading what it said
Dear Mom,
I'm sorry about the mess, Sally and I didn't think the police would come so quickly. Well, he did and ended up shooting me
Ms. Iero put a hand up to her mouth but made no effort to call anyone.
The thing is, Mom, I died. You were right, there is a light at the end of your life, Mom it was so bright and beautiful. The reason I'm writing this is because, Sally is a werewolf and she bit me, so that made me one too. I can't stay for that reason, I'm a monster now and I could never put you through half the crap I'm going to have to do, I'll be a worse version of Dad. I'm sorry Mom, I love you, you know I do, but I can't ever see you again, ever.
Sorry, Frank
"Frank....." She whispered
She looked at the two tickets in her hand, staring them down and then dropping one on the ground. She didn't bother to pack any of the furniture, she grabbed her blanket, two pillows, clothes, and her favorite cookbook. Then she wistfully walked into Frank's room, her eyes skimmed over the hurried mess. She saw that he had taken the picture off his bedside table, but left a drawing from when he was in kindergarten. The one that was sloppy stick figures standing next to each other, holding hands.
"I love Mommy"
She carefully took it off and placed it amongst her things. Ms. Iero was upset that her son left, but more upset that Sally had taken him away from ever coming back to her, she flicked a match and threw down on the couch. The material almost instantaneously bursted into flames, she walked out, grasping with white knuckles, the white note, in one hand and her brown suitcase in the other. She was walking away from the complex towards the airport. She watched the fire engines go by and looked back at the escalating fire, she always hated that godforsaken place.
**************************FRANK'S POV***************************
Sally and I were sitting in a private booth, the ticket master already checked our tickets and a snack person came around. Sally was silently gnawing on a piece of jerky and I was staring out the window, eating a bag of unsalted popcorn. We were quiet, but it was good kind of quiet, we both needed some time to think after all.
"What are we going to do for money?"
"We could sell hot chocolate ? Or make sweets" I tell her
"Blech, sweets"
"I bet that a hundred years ago, you loved treats"
"Sure, but now I'm practically a dog, so sweets make me sick"
"Right" I smiled at her, jabbing her with my elbow
She jabbed back, I punched her arm and then we started full on play fighting. She was strong, but hell, so was I, we stopped when someone knocked at our door. I slid it open and there stood a guy with raven black hair and hazel eyes, he looked rather pale, but he spoke clearly
"Hi, I just got kicked out of my booth and I need a place to sit"
I was about to say no, but then I noticed something red on the corner of his lip.
"Okay, you can sit here"
Sally was about to vocally disagree, but I guess she noticed too, because she quickly nodded and leaned back on her chair.
"So, what's your name?" I ask him
"My name's Gerard, what about you two?"
"I'm Frank and she's Sally"
"Cool, so how old are you two?"
"I'm thirteen-" Sally began to say
"No, how old are you two really?" he said with finesse
She smiled and nodded towards me
"He's still thirteen, but newly transformed and I'm a hundred and three"
"I see, so I'm guessing you two lost your adult then?"
"Yeah" Sally agreed
"Where are you guys heading?"
"Toronto, Canada"
"What a coincidence, I'm heading there as well. You're going to need an adult to pass off as normal, plus it's boring to be alone when you're inner animal is a pack animal"
"So you're saying, you want to join us?" I ask
"Yeah, you two are a couple, right?"
We nod at the same time and look at each other, silently agreeing he would be good to have around since we were both pretty young. He saw us and smirked confidently, once it was settled, we were all tired and in need of sleep. Gerard placed a magazine over his head and was out like a light, Sally was the next to fall asleep, curled up right next to me with her black hair covering her closed eyes. I stayed awake a little longer because I was thinking, this was my new family. A whole new pack, maybe we'll meet others, but I highly doubt it, but who knows, we're gonna live for a long time. But heck, people will look at us like all we're capable of is being wolves at heart. That thought, having a wolf heart, is what put me to sleep.
