*Rea's POV *
We arrived at the place, the house is already full of people ... I don't like it... Jill's parties are always with crazy events, as I heard from Lucy.
' Let's go girl, what are you waiting for?'
' I'm waiting for you to turn around and bring me home to be honest , but I know it won't gonna happen ,so, let's go ...' She laughed and stepped out of the car. I did as well.
Going through the path, I could already see few guys in the garden making stupid jokes on each other... Once inside, some are just chatting, other playing beer games, dancing. I never liked parties, so it's just ... not for me.
' What a surprise , the quiet Rea is at my party ' I heard this squeaky voice that's too familiar. Turned.
' Hey Jill ,don't worry I wont be long , Lucy dragged me in here... ' She turned to her.
' Oh hey girl, he'll be here soon , why don't we go warm up till then?'
' You read my damn mind , let's go !' Lucy turned to me.
' Rea ,you gonna be alright? '
' Yeah , go , have fun. ' She went to the table with drinks with Jill and they began chatting.
And that's when I retreat from this madhouse. I have nothing to do in here since all the friends I had turned on me on my fifteenth birthday, and after that, they never looked the same at me, they think I have some kind of an unspoken disease that doctor wasn't able to notice, yeah I know it sounds stupid, but that's what they say. Everyone does s**t like this, if they are afraid or something unusual happens, they just distance themselves from it and go back to their little fantasy worlds where everything is normal and nothing unusual ...
Rea, just let it go... Yeah, I'm letting it go...
Turned to the door that I just came through, went outside, and to the path which will lead me home. It's only half an hour walk and I have no problems with that. I love nature, it relaxes me...
As no one at home expects me for at least a few more hours, I could use it and do some thinking at my favorite place in this whole town.. the open cinema... I always go there when I want some alone time, or with Lucy. It's always running and not so popular, a perfect place to hide in the fresh air and relax while watching a movie.
When I was closer to the place, something inside started to stir. I don't know what it is, but it makes me feel calm, so I ignore it.
Once at the place, I took the closest bench and sat on it. Oh, and it's streaming Jumanji, perfect timing... Unfortunately, half of the movie has already passed so I'll just end it and move home.
I can't help but think about the second part of my birthday present... I don't know why, but the moment I saw that necklace left for me by my biological parents, all I wanted was to wear it at all times, and I'm... I mean, it's beautiful and is easy to cover with clothes so no one would ask where I got it from... That's a story I don't wanna share with anyone except Lucy and my parents.
Something inside me bugged again... Goddammit, what is it. I started to feel the need to look around. But why? Anyway, I listened to ... Myself?
Looked around and saw few cars with couples in them and few more people just sitting on benches and then...
Then I saw two guys sitting on the other side, which is fine by me, it might even be a group of people, but the thing is that from one of them I felt the strange pull, like needing to go to him. I observed one that took my attention, and, oh my god...
He's handsome, looks like a damn god that just stepped out of heaven.. I'll guess, maybe seven feet in height, short black hair, I can't see his face, but I think he should be perfect as well ... Looks well built, he's wearing jeans and a t-shirt showing off his muscular arms which if I see right has tattoos... Or maybe something else I'm too far to see that close to know for sure.
I feel the warmth just below my belly button. What? Why? I just looked at him from afar, and that's the effect I get...?
I look back at the screen, it's almost finished, but then I feel the urge to look at him again, and I can't hold it, so I turn and...
And he's looking at me as well, his face is drop-dead gorgeous, sharp jawline, short black hair, lips begging to be kissed ... I wish I could go to him, I wonder if he feels the same pull.
Rea, control yourself, you've been staring at this guy for a few minutes already. Slapped myself mentally. Made a small, apologetic smile and quickly turned to the screen, but I can still feel his burning gaze on me.
What the hell? I didn't do anything rude. So why is he staring at me like I'm his prey... If I just ignore him, he'll stop, I kept repeating to myself.
To be honest, I don't want him to stop looking, I want him to come, but who cares...
Oh, the titles are on already, it's time to go.
I was about to stand up and go when he stood up from his bench and started walking in my direction... Crap.
*Williams POV*
First, I saw those long white hair. They were playfully moving around her shoulders, then her flawless face.
'Go to her!' Remus roared in my head.
'Shut up! I answered him.
'Go to her or I'll take control!' he roared even louder for me.
'Jer, you can go home..' I told him, he nodded and went back through the path we came from. I sat there a little longer, observing how wonderful a mate of mine is... And then...
Our eyes met, and oh my god, they were blue for a moment, a few seconds later they became ...violet...? She smiled at me and quickly turned to the screen.
Beautiful.
I thought for a moment that she is a human girl, but now... there is just no way.
I wonder if she knows .. it didn't look like she reacted to her eye change or a presence of a werewolf. I need to know more.
I rose from my bench and turned to go to her direction, once I began walking, I noticed her glimpsing at me while pretending to watch the screen.
Funny girl.
If she'd only know that she already has me and can look at me all she wants... I hope to fix that soon. 'Hey, can I sit here?' I asked her.
'Oh ,yeah sure , but why?' she asked while moving from the middle of a bench so I could sit.
'We are the only ones left here, so why not watch together?' ' O...okay.' She said while watching the movie. '
'So, what brings you here... Alone.. At this late?' I asked her.
' Just needed some alone time.' She shrugged her shoulders.
Alone time? I wonder why...
' You wanna talk about it, I mean I'm a complete stranger, so why not to use opportunity?' She thought for a moment.
' I've came to acknowledge something that changed my life completely, and now I'm a complete wreck. ' I noticed a small tear escape her eye.
' Hey... Don't cry, no matter what you found out, you'll be alright. '
' Oh yeah? How would you react if your parents would tell you that they aren't your real parents and that someone just threw me on their doorstep and left while I was just few days old?'
' And how disgusting these white hair look with my blue eyes, they just changed on my fifteenth birthday and I could do nothing about it... Since then I lost all my friends, because they think I'm some kind of a freak.' She told with more tears running down her cheeks.
' Hey... Hey.. Calm down, everything will be alright, by the way I'm sorry but I have to tell.. '
' What? '
' Your, your eyes.. Do you have a phone? ' She nodded.
' Look at your eyes. ' She turned her camera on and...
'WHAT THE F*CK!' She screamed.
'I'm really a freak... What the f*ck is this, what color is this... Violet?' She said with rage clear on her face.
' Oh good god... I'll have to start using lenses, I don't want people in college to think that I'm freak as well...' She was blurting something about being left out nonstop.
' Calm down woman! ' I told with a slightly raised voice. She turned to me.
'First of all, your hair looks phenomenal, next, those eyes, wonderful, mixing with your hair it looks stunning, you are very beautiful, why don't you think so?' I told her looking in the eyes.
' Because once my appearance changed, I was left out of everything, and I don't know why, but I really don't want to be alone, I want to have at least few friends that would never leave me.. ' She went back to her nonstop blurting state again.
' Can I hug you? ' I asked out of nowhere.
It was Remus. That damn dog wants to touch her so badly...
' Why.?' She asked looking surprised.
Yeah, why...
' I feel like you need it now.. ' She stood up from the bench, I did as well.
' Okay. ' I came closer to her and hugged her gently, she buried her nose in my chest...
Oh... This feels so good, and the sparks, oh damn, I hope she feels it as well.
Remus wants more.
'Go away you damn dog.' I scolded him in my head.
She retreated from the hug and smiled.
'Okay, thank you, it really helped, but I should go now.'
' Hey uh... what's your name by the way, and could I get your number?.'
' Hmm, why do you want my number we are complete strangers?' She asked with a raised eyebrow.
' I don't know, I just feel that we could become friends.' I told her shrugging my shoulders.
' You know, I'll tell you what, if we meet after today again, I'll give it to you, but now, I'm not sure if it's the right time ,and for the name, you'll have to find it out , deal?'
' Deal'
'Can I walk you home?' I asked her.
'Nah, it's good, you did enough, okay I'll go now, bye stranger.' She said smiling.
' It's William... See you soon.' I told her and went to the path that leads back to the hotel...
