Elizabeth POV:
“HuuhArgh!” Vivian yells charging at me.
She starts throwing punches and kicks in quick succession.
All of which are dodged easily by me.
We have everyone in the room watching us.
My mate is done fighting. Another group is done, as well. The last group besides ours is still in their fight, but they are both distracted watching us.
“Stop dodging me b*tch!” Vivian shrieks.
She pushes herself to throw punches even faster.
I can tell she can’t keep this up much longer. I’ve successfully infiltrated her mind. She isn’t thinking rationally,she is doing more out of anger now.
I still manage to dodge her attacks. Vivian tries to land a kick to my face, but I quickly drop and take my leg to sweep her leg from out under her.
She flails and falls to the mat on her back.
I quickly take the opportunity to pin her down.
When she couldn’t break herself free the referee declared me the winner.
I immediately got up and went to walk away. Vivian climbed to her feet and proceeded to make a complete fool of herself in front of everyone here inside the gym.
“ This is not over Elizabeth, you chickened out! You know you couldn’t beat me! That’s why you refused to fight back. You probably can’t stand the pain you little spoiled rich brat!” Vivian screams at me.
“Whatever!” I say not even turning to look at her.
“Vivian, the match has been determined! Either sit and watch the last match quietly or exit the gymnasium in a peaceful manner. Causing such a ruckus will not be tolerated.” Mr. Barnhart booms over the microphone.
Vivian huffs and stomps her foot.
I walk out of the gym doors and walk past Justin without even acknowledging him.
I was so ready for this day to be over. I still had lunch, and another two classes to get through. Not to mention detention and cheer practice after school. I headed towards the girls locker room to get a quick shower in. I do despise sweating after all. I walked into the locker room and went to my assigned locker. We all have gym uniforms to wear. It was a nice tracksuit. Boys and girls wore the same thing.
I stripped off my sweaty tracksuit and put it in the dirty clothes hamper. The school washed them for us and they were folded ready for us to use again for next gym class. The top and bottom had our names embroidered so we would always get our same uniform back. I grabbed a towel and my soap and headed for the shower.
I was the only person in here.
I washed my hair and was rinsing it when I felt eyes on me. I quickly wiped the water from my eyes to turn and see my mate.
His face was red but his eyes were glued to me.
I wondered why he was just staring at me. Then I remembered I was completely naked.
My hands went to cover myself, but in the blink of an eye he had me pressed against the wall. His lips quivering just inches from mine. The shower raining down on both of us. I could see his eyes were a different color. They were a beautiful blue color. Before I could have sworn they were brown too.
“Wha-What are you doing?!” I say squirming under him.
As a werewolf we are all bound to see each other naked more than a few times. It comes with the territory when we shift into our wolves.
Before I knew what was happening, electricity shot through me.
His lips were on mine. His lips were so soft and they felt like they fit mine perfectly. I was melting into him and losing my grip on reality. That is until his words played back into my head. “Listen, I don't really want to talk to you right now, let alone be around you. Just for right now, leave me alone.”
I pushed him away from me.
He looked at me confused.
“You don’t want to be around me, remember! So maybe now I feel the same way, stay away from me. I won’t be your plaything for whenever your mood changes and you feel like throwing me a bone!” I say scrambling to my feet. I turn the water off and grab my towel.
“I’m sorry, I didn’t mean for it to come out like that.” He says.
I glance back at him and see his eyes are back to brown. His hair is soaking wet and he had slicked his hair out of his face.
“Well that’s how it came out. Just go please, I want to be alone.”
He nods and leaves the locker room.
I wrap my towel around me and sit on the bench.
This day is really taking its toll on me. So much has changed all in the span of one school day. Something tells me that this won’t be all that will change. I have some information to dig up on my strange and mysterious mate. He keeps to himself and no one seems to know much about him. The only thing I’ve learned so far is that his name is Brendon.
“Don’t worry Brendon, I will find out more about you.” I whisper to myself as I get dressed.
