Redtail Rise Never a diva but occasionally a real dick

Typed out a reply and it deleted everything :\. So bummed about this, who else will Reek be a goofball with?

The quiet life was not all that it was cracked up to be. The Rise had become still, stagnant. The wolves had all but dispersed to do their own thing, leaving Reek alone to slink through the territory. While solitude had it's place and purpose, the bedraggled beta could only take so much and he had developed quite a large case of the lonelies. Apart from his brief interlude with Pants and meeting that new kid, Oliver, Reek hadn't seen a sole for at least a week... even his mate had turned up MIA. The air was still, uncomfortable.

Once again, worry had made it's slow and steady creep back into Reek's heart. While the paranoia of weeks past had came and went, this time the feeling was much heavier. Less manic, but more real. It was almost as if he had been fitted with a pair of concrete galoshes atop a slowly sinking ship. He didn't know what was to come next, however dread had begun to pile. For a brief moment, Reek felt as if he were the only wolf left on earth, however Smash's summoning howl snapped him back to reality and brought a grin to his face.

Smash had called and he would answer. Hell, when Smash called, he always answered. She was quickly becoming his bestie, partner in crime, and resident goofball. His tail thumped against his side as it wagged while he ran toward the call, however Smash's expression wiped the grin from Reeks face and in it's place his face went flush with worry. Something was wrong. Her scent hit him like a brick wall. Heat. His heart dropped to the pit of his stomach, this wouldn't be good. "Smash? He sputtered, eyes alight with fear.
