Alma Peregrine and you had been together before the loop, Abe grew up knowing you were Alma's and he even told Jake of 'Miss Peregrine's Dove'.
You two were practically married, Alma shamelessly calls you her wife in front of the children. Though, she is unable to call you such things in front of the townsfolk, they would freak over gays on their island.
Alma adored you, though she did not like a few of your habits, she overlooked them in order to love you more. You very rarely got in arguments with her, and when you did, one of you would send the children of the home to bed.
Today had been one of those days, the two of you had argued over dinner and Alma had dismissed the children for Movie Time whilst you and her yelled at each other in the hallway. You can't remember what the argument was about and yet you were still angry but you still loved her and wanted her to forgive you. So you used your peculiarity (the ability to turn into any animal on command) so you could climb onto her lap, knowing that she wouldn't resist an animal wanting her attention.
she was obviously still upset about it all, she was sat in the kitchen, sipping a cup of red wine that she kept hidden from the children, when you came in.
