Him & I

Chapter 2

Mom, why didnt you bring me here before? This is so good!”

I was downing a bowl of chicken fettuccine from the place my mom use to come to. It was actually still here. Even the same owners. They wont stop talking to my mom. Its really nice to know she was loved before meeting my father as well. They cried at the sight of her. I cringed at them wanting to hug me. While they spoke non stop with my mom i finished eating off my food.

“Mom, im just gonna go out and get some frsh air” i whispered to her and she nodded.

I walked out of the restaurant because those people were quite over bearing. I just sat on the stools outside enjoying the cool breeze. Till i saw a bunch of people across the road from me. They looked around my age, no doubt i will see them in my new school ill ne going to. I only had 1 year left, i always wanted to be a writer. Writing always seemed to put me into peace. I turned 18 about 6 months ago, and not too sure why i haven't shifted or anything, not even found my mate. Thats why dad thought i was more human than anything. All of a sudden dad filled my head and i was almost in tears. I wiped them away and looked back at the teens laughing and talking. I hope i find friends like that one day.

“It was so lovely to see yous all, we will come back again soon bye now” y mom waved off the people and walked to me grabbing my arm and walking me out

We got back in the car and she took a big sigh

“Now i remember why i didnt like going there, they talk way too much” me and my mom starting bursting out laughing.

“Lets go home dear”

“Yeah im pretty tired”

“Tired? You slept the whole entire trip”

“Still tired”

We got home and we both started to clear our spaces. Mom done down stairs while i did my room. I pulled off the white cloth that covered the bed and it was like a princess bed. I opened up the door to the balcony to get fresh air in.

After about and hour of clearing dust and changing sheets and wiping down the bathroom, my room was done. I has washed them small table and chair that sat on the deck. Everything looked beautiful. What the heck did memaw get up to back in her day. This floor was much different to the lower ground level. That level was plain and simple. Yet here is more detailed and very elegant. I felt very lucky. I had a bath in my new bathroom and got ready for bed. As i was brushing my hair my mom came in.

“You know, i woke you up in Cansas, now im putting you to sleep in detroit” my moms voice had so much pain in it

“Mom, are you okay? You know, with the whole dad thing? You lost your mate” i whispered tha last part

She put her head up with such confidence

“I may be no werewolf, but i mere human, but i loved him with my whole heart, the moon goddess wont let this pass” she believed in the moon goddess with all her heart.

“Okay mom” i said and hugged her tight

“For the record, i like it here, no one picking on me or calling me names, its nice” i smiled at my mom just sighed and kissed my forehead

“Youll meet better people, we are going to the school tomorrow so sleep well my dear” she smiled and turned off my light closing the door behind her and i fell into a slumber of sleep

I must of had a great sleep because i woke early getting ready for the day.

I pulled out my best fit. Black ripped jeans, white chuck taylors and a grey long sleeve crop top. I was no Kendall Jenner but my bits were all in the right places. Sometimes i use to wonder why people even picked on me. I wasnt ugly at all. I just put it down to because my mother was human. You know half blood. I let my hair fall behind my back and walked out down stairs to the kitchen. Had my mom even slept? The whole ground floor was clean like weve been here the whole time.

“Ill do the rest of the house once ive come back from your school, here is your lunch, and your breakfast then ill take you to school” she rambled her pla on like as damn sargent.

“Mom settle down, its okay” i patted her shoulder

“Im sorry love its hard trying to adapt to one child when i use to make the lunches for the pack school” my eyes widened

“What the --- you made the pack lunches? I knew it, that sauce only you could make” we both laughed. They are gonna be screwed without my mom.

“Cmon lets go or youll be late”

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

“Follow me this way and ill lead you to your class Ms Crest” the principle of my new school was about to lead the way until my mom grabbed me and hugged me tight.

“I love you Anastasia” she cupped my face

“I love you too mom now go” i took her hands and waved her off, this school was huge. It had a huge sign on the front “Detroit High” so simple. I liked it.

“This will be your class every morning before your class periods start” The principle was nice, straight forward. But i just nodded at her gripping on to my bag and I swear I could feel myself getting hot from the nerves. She opened a door down a long hallway and clapped her hand twice and it went quiet.

“Class, we have a new student here with us today, transferred from Kansas CIty” she smiled and looked at me and i just waved at the class. There were at least 20 kids in this class, desks all in rows of fives. I saw a spear desk in the back left corner behind a blonde girl doing her make up.

“This is Anastasia Crest, take a seat Ms Crest” she smiled at me and i nodded and i headed for the only empty seat. I saw the blonde girl doing her lipstick with a mirror in her hand, her eyes glanced at me before she rolled them and carried on doing what she was doing. She was beautiful, long blonde hair, clear skin, long legs, she was even more fashionable, she wore a short pink skirt, it kind of reminded me of something you would wear in a game of tennis. But her legs gave its justice, they went on for ever. Now she was Kendall Jenner. I all of a sudden felt insecure about myself and shyly slid into my desk pulling a book out of my bag and putting my bag on the ground beside me. I didnt realise when i put my bag down i had dropped it on top of the foot of person sitting in the desk to my right.

“Ooff” i heard a guy kind of wince in pain, well my bag did weigh a ton with books enough for the years semester, i haven't quite made it to my locker just yet.

“Im so sorry” my voice was almost cracking and i started to get anxious. Making a fool of myself on my first day. I grabbed my bag and then looked up. My heart was in my throat.

I knew i smelt something. The most exquisite smell ive ever smelled. Caramel and chocolate filled my nose as i put my head up to this person. Our eyes locked and we stared at each other for a moment. He had hazel eyes, almost orange or maybe yellow. He had short jet black hair, a chiseled chin, and overall he was very handsome. I knew in my heart. He was my mate. I broke the staring, and looked back at my book. Questions filled my head. I thought i was human? But everything I learned about finding a mate for a werewolf was happening to me right now. I felt myself getting nervous. But I just kept my head down and covered the right side of my face with my hair in the hopes of covering my red cheeks. The window next to me was open and I could feel the breeze coming in so I turned my head towards it to cool my face because I was blushing like a fool. Did he feel it too? Then I heard the girl in the front turn to him and talk.

“Babe, lunch today?” she was fluttering her pretty eyelashes at him. I just kept doing my work trying to listen to what the teacher was saying at the front.

“Another time Jasmine” he said and carried on with his work. I was quite impressed. And smirked inwardly to myself. I don't even know why.

“Whats wrong babe? I told you i was sorry, you know how i get when those girls get to close to you” she was almost pleading to him. Was this really his gf?

He took a big sigh and put his head up to her meeting her blue eyes.

“Okay, ill see you at the cafeteria” he smiled at her and looked back at his book with no expression on his face. Cold. very cold.

The bell rang for interval and i couldn't have been any happier. I quickly gathered my books to put the in my bag i heard Jasmine call out.

“See ou there Lucas” then she blew him a kiss. Thats his name, Lucas. I noted that down in my head.

As i walked out of the class a girl came up to me,

“Hey Im Dallas” she put her hand out for me to shake. She had long light brown hair tied into a high pony tail. With chesnut coloured eyes.

“Hey nice to meet you, im Anastasia, but you can call me Ana” i shook her hand and walked beside me. My eyes were darting around. Looking for him. Why was i doing that.

“So, you from Kansas huh? She asked with a wide grin

“Yeah, me and my mom moved here, long story short, my dad was an asshole” we both giggled at my statement.

Chelsea seems really nice. In my pack no one liked me and it was barely ever that someone besides my om or dad was nice to me. When i mean my dad, i mean he was good until he became obsessed. I hope me and chelsea would become friends

“Lets go grab a bite, they have pretty good food here” she sounded like an excited kid at a candy store. When we got there she was not wrong. This was everything a human teen ager would dream of, but then again did this school not care about its students dietary intake? Strange.

“Wow, you werent wrong about the food, look at all this stuff” i said with my jaw opened. It was actually pretty cool to see as well.

“Take whatever you want, look grab a tray and ove along” Chelsea gave ma tray and looked at what i wanted. In my pack we ate nothing but healthy foods. Even though it was healthy they were also delicoius. This food was more for the human teen ager, pizzas hot chips pies hotdogs and sodas. I took a heap of fruit, a bowl of salad that i think is caesar, it smells great anyway, and a bottle of water.

Chelsea and i walked to the table and sat down.

“Out of all that food thats what you got?” she looked gobsmacked.

“Um i like this food” i said shyly and she just shrugged and carried on eating her fries.

“So, ill give you the run down” she points a chip at me and then to the front lot of tables where what looks like the school football team and the cheer leaders.

“School football team, every girl wants the guys and every guy wants the girls, they are top of the rank here in high school.

She points over to a table of people sitting with their laptops.

“The nerds, they love studying so much we pay them to do some of our homework”

“Over there” she points over to the table where kids with the skateboards are talking and laughing

“The hobos, they dont bother anyone though just always high” she rolled her eyes

“Well they dont call it high school for nothing” i chuckled ather and ate my salad.

“Those pink girls, stay away from them” she glared over at a table and i looked over to where she was looking. Jasmine was sitting amongst them like a queen. Great. Now i have to sit behind this girl for rest of the school year.

“Oh dont worry, i plan on staying away from everyone, except you of course” i said to her and we both laughed.

“You know Ana your funny, i like you, we cool” she gave me cool smirk and i just smiled at her.

My first friend. I was actually quite giddy inside.

“Oh wait i forgot, how could i forget...them” she lifted her chin up to a direction and i was almost about to look up

“Wait dont look” chelsea quickly said

“What is it?” i didn't look at all i kept my head down to my salad

“Lucas Valentino is staring right at you, don't look” chelsea sounded worried and that made me worry

He didn't sound at all dangerous when he spoke to jasmine. Maybe because that is his girlfriend

“The rumours are that him and Jasmine are a thing now, they had s*x once and ow she just doesnt stop hassling him, thats the way i see it anyway, but she says otherwise.” chelseas statement seemed pretty legit.

“Is he still looking? I dont want to cause unnecessary drama” i was actually getting nervous

“Oh mu god hes coming this way” chelsea's eyes widened at him walking to our direction.

I immediately looked over at jasmines direction and she already noticed him walking towards us.her face was not happy at all.

He reached our table and his scent filled my nose once again. My insides were doing turmoils and i was getting light headed.

“Hey, im just introducing myself, Lucas” he smiled and put his hand out to me to shake and i shook it

“Ana” thats all that could come out of my mouth

“Nice to meet you, see you around” he smirked and went back to his seat, still not taking his eyes of me. It was making me blush

“Your the first girl ive ever seen him approach willing” her eyes were almost falling out of her head. She was blown away by that. Why?

“He didnt even approach Jasmine, she went to him got him drunk and had s*x with him the filthy w***e” i was suprised and what she said, or was i?

“Either way, i dont want any trouble” i ate my salad and walked my stuff to the bin

“Im going to my locker chelsea, ill see you at class yeah?” i smiled at her and she nodded still eating her food.

I was glad i made a friend for once in my life. Finally something to work on bucket list.

Then all of a sudden i felt something well rather someone grab my arm and pull me into a closet. It was dark but i heard the sound of door being locked and i started to panic

I did not want to loose my virginity this way. I was thinking the worse and i started to panic but then the light went on. It was Lucas.
