The Forbidden Alpha

Chapter 5

The next morning I woke up in Kenny's arms. I felt safe, I wasn't weirded out or nothing. And he didn't fight over it either. Like most guys, they try something especially drunk, but Kenny didn't.

I do remember Jenny telling me long time ago that Kenny did have a crush on me but neither of us did anything to try it. Maybe this was that test to show me that he was a good guy. That he never hurt me or do anything to me.

I rolled over in his arms, he didn’t bother to wake up while I was rolling over. He was knocked the f**k out. He was gorgeous in a way. He had the most beautiful blueish grey eyes ever with sandy blondish brown hair. The cuties dimples that I can ever call on a guy. He was just about a foot taller than me. As I was admiring him all over, I looked at his big lustfulness lips, oh how I wanted to lean down and just kiss them. I was just thinking about leaning down to kiss them as he twitch in his sleep scaring the s**t out of me.

I smirked at him for a moment to see if he woke up but he didn’t. So I leaned down and gave him a peck on the lips then rolled over to get up. It was a little hard to get out of his arms, since he got a good grip hold on me. But I managed to get free.

Once I got free, I walked over to our small cooking stove and started making hot water for the coffee. I needed it after last night.

There were a few others up already doing the same but not a lot. Saw some people sleep in their camping chairs, some on picnic tables/benches, some laying in the back of their trucks, even some laying on the ground with their bedding. Last night was pretty wild, too wild for me. It’s hardly like this, but since we’re all getting older, we want to do more like party, be away from our parents.

Once the water was hot, I grabbed a cup and poured the water in it and grabbed the instant coffee. Once I was done with that, added my sugar and milk and I was good to go. I walked over to the river and stood there looking out towards the water and the scenery. Enjoying it while I can.

As I was looking out, I just happened to look across the water into the tree line. As I was looking along it, I swear I saw something just standing there. I looked away from that spot then back just to make sure it wasn’t my eyes messing with me since I’m still half asleep. That’s when I saw it again.

It was huge, massive like wolf. It was all black, but a few spots. The tips of his ears were like a red color and a spot on his nose was white. Like a birthmark. I was scared for a moment but I didn’t move. I stood my ground. It wasn’t like he could get to me across this wide deep ass river and especially with all these people here too.

I kept scaring at it for the longest, that the wolf sat down and kept staring at me. Like he wanted something. And for some reason I just wanted to pet it. The wolf was adorable but still dangerous. After a few more minutes, it laid down fully still watching me. By then I was down with my coffee and made another. This time, I grabbed my chair and put it by the water and sat in it and watch the wolf. It felt like hours of sitting here watching this magnificent creature. Until the wolf stood up quick right as someone had touched me. I jumped and looked up. It was Kenny. I smiled up at him and he leaned down and kissed me on the lips. I froze for a second, pulled back then stood up.

“What you doing?” I asked him.

“Kissing you.” He said.

“I know but why?” I asked him.

“So you can kiss me while I’m asleep and I can’t while I’m awake?” He asked.

“How, how did you know I kissed you?” I asked him.

“I felt something touched my lips, which woke me up a little. When I opened my eyes I saw it was you but hurried up and closed them so you didn’t see. I went back to sleep after you got up.”

“Oh,” I said then looked down.

Damnit. I was hoping he didn’t wake up from that or even notice. I turned around and looked back out towards the water and the wolf was gone. I sighed.

“What’s wrong?”

“Nothing,” I said as I turned back around. “I. I was hoping you didn’t,”

“Catch you?” He said and I nodded. “Cris, I’ve had a massive crush on you since I met you.”

“I know.” I said looking up at him.

“How did you know?”

“Jenny told me. But to be honest, I’ve had a massive crush on you ever since Jenny told me.” I told him.

“Why didn’t you say anything? Wait when did you fine out?” He asked.

“After our 1st sleep over party.” I told him looking down.

“8 years ago?” He called then chuckled.

“Yea, you went to go get all us drinks when Jenny had told me. Lilly was messing with for about a year or two about it. But you know how Lilly is.”

“Yeah, but she’s a great friend.” He said.

“I’d wanted to tell you for quitesome time but never really got the chance too. Then you started dating that one girl 2 years ago I lost hope and gave up.” I told him.

Once I told him that I turned around and looked away from him. I looked back out towards the water and the trees to see if that wolf was there just hiding but I still saw nothing. Then I felt arms being wrapped around me, holding me like last night.

“I wished I knew. To be honest, I wish April was you. I always pictured her as you when we hung out together. When we kissed, I wondered how it felt to kiss you. To hold you in my arms like I’m doing now. I always wondered how it would feel and right now it feels damn good.” He told me.

I went to turn back around but he kept me where I was. So I didn’t fight it. “To be fair, I was jealous of April.”

Kenny snorted then kissed the top of my head.

“What, I was. Even though you were two years older than me, I wondered how it would be if we were together. How could things be would it be different than it is now or would it be the exact same?” I told him.

“I wondered myself.” He told me.

“I don’t want this to ruin our friendship.” I said as I turned around in his arms and looked up at him. “I want us to be us but more than that.” I told him.

He let me go for just a moment, grabbed my cup of coffee and put it down in my seat then wrapped his arms back around me. Giving me the chance to wrap my arms around him as well.

“Things could never be any different than they ever been.”

“Are you sure?” I asked him.

He nodded then leaned down and kissed me on the lips. At first I was scared but allowed it. I opened my mouth to give him access. I wanted to taste him. I wanted to be loved by him.

We were kissing for I don’t know how long until I heard some squeals then clapping. I jumped in Kenny’s arms and we both looked to the side of us. Jenny and Lilly were both standing there clapping and cheering us on. Everyone was looking our way.

“Finally you guys!” Jenny said out loud. “Now I don’t have to hear anymore s**t from you guys liking each other and keeping it from one another.”

After she said that, a few of the guys that were outside watched cheered us on as well. Guessing those were Kenny’s friends. I felt embarrassed at what just happened. I hide my face into Kenny’s chest. He just chuckled and rubbed my back before letting me go, he kissed my head and pulled back.

I didn’t want him to let me go but once he did, I felt cold. Like I needed his heat but I knew he wanted to give me some time and space to talk to his sister and my bff.

Of course he went over to his friends and they all high five him and bro hugging him for what just happened.

“Sooo, now I can finally call you my sister.” Jenny said hugging me. “All I have to say is about damn time.”

“Yeah, I suppose.” I said looking over at him.

“I just won’t it doesn’t mess up our friendship you know. Nor him hurting me. I don’t want to make this a mistake.”

“Cris, at home you’re all he talks about. Our own parents are sick of hearing how he wish you were his, that you give him the time of day of being together, and blah blah blah.”

“Really?”

“Yes.”

“You may not see it, but at school the way he stares at you in the class room and at lunch is kinda gross but in a good way. That’s a sign of a true man wanting the girl he wants.” Lilly said.

“You remember April?” Jenny said. I nodded. “April told me she always thought Kenny and you were together they way y’all hung out and chilled and all that s**t. And that since they were together she was gonna make sure that y’all never did but that backed fired on her ass. She was jealous of y’all’s friendship. How he always put you 1st before her since they were dating. Do you wanna know the real reason why they broke up?” Jenny asked me.

“I always did wanted to know why they broke up.” I asked.

“Same.” Lilly said.

“Remember when you fell off the swing at the park when we all wanted to go to the beach?”

“Yeah, Kenny came running towards me because I broke my arm and I was screaming like bloody murder.”

“Yeah, April didn’t like how he ran to your aid and picked you up and ran you to the car. After we took you to the hospital and your mom finally got there, we all left and went back home. They got into a huge argument in the living room over it. My mother came downstairs to see what the f**k was going on. Dad just got home from work and came in from the garage and hollered out. April told my brother her or you and my mother spoke up and said that isn’t fair they’ve been friends since kids. And April ran her mouth at our mother that’s when Kenny spoke up and said you. He said in his own words, ‘April it will always be Crystal.’ And when April heard those words come out of Kenny’s mouth, she slapped him and ran out of the house crying.” Jenny told me. “Kenny wanted to go after her but my parents told him to let it be.”

“She slapped your brother because he said it was always Cris. Like what the f**k. b***h needs to grow the f**k up. I never could stand her.” Lilly said.

“Even in a relationship it was always me? But why would he even do that.” I said.

“Because he’s always liked you since day one.” Jenny told me.

After what she told me, I looked back over at Kenny and smiled. Just wish he told me himself maybe that relationship would have never happened if he told me. Hell even if I told him it wouldn’t happen either. But I was too chicken and too young. Now that I’m 16 and he’s 17 maybe this can work out.
