I'm in his arms again. I don't care to lift up my head though. Too tired and too comfy. I'm also super deep in thought.
What am I going to do without my brother? Without my pack?
I wonder if they have a cheer team at the Academy.
Ugh. Everything's just happening to fast. I'm getting whiplash.
I know that this is a good thing and if it did happen slowly I'd be less inclined to go and would of most likely found a way out. But I can't handle how I'm feeling right now.
I try to be positive, but it's so much easier to be negative.
Be positive.
Positive. Positive.
Come one Ruby it's not that hard.
You're with your mate. That brings a smile to my face.
It's only been a little less than an hour since we left the pack house. We arrived at the airport about 10 minutes ago and our waiting to get on the private jet.
Kai picked me up as soon as we got out of the car. I had pretended to be sleeping.
Yeah, yeah. I wanted him to carry me. So what?
I feel Kai look down at me. His eyes leaving me burning hot where ever they go.
I still have that smile on his face but hope he thinks it's from a good dream and not cause I'm awake. Could you imagine if he knew I was up and just wanted him to carry? EM-BARR-ASSING!
I'm kinda hungry. Can't wait til we're on the plane. It should be stocked full of everything I could want.
But while were waiting I might as well snuggle closer to my mate.
This is nice. Definitely a pro of having a mate. Too bad we have to deal with other things. If everyday was like this I'd never want to die. But then again, I get bored easily, so, probably not the best idea. But I could get use to doing this every morning.
Who am I kidding? Once he gets to know me he'll probably run away as fast as possible.
Probably.
That one word keeps echoing in my mind.
What if he didn't?
What if I didn't even give him the chance and he proves me wrong.
That settles it then. I have to see where this goes.
〜〜〜〜
We boarded the plane a few minutes ago.
I gotta admit I was a bit disappointed that Kai put me down in my own seat. But he made up for it by sitting right next to me and playing with my hair.
I love it when people play with my hair. Loved it when I was in second grade and we would do the hair trains. Needless to say, that's a sure winner with me. And I'm pretty sure others love it too.
I'm hungry. But this is so comfortable.
I should get up.
Just five more minutes...Okay, 10 more minutes...Soon, I'll get up soon
〜〜〜〜
"Ruby, sweetheart, you need to get up." I wake up to these sweet, soft words being whispered in my ear. It's Kai. Awwwwww. I open my eyes, as soon as they're open I see a blurry blob above me. I blink a couple of times to clear out the fogginess.
I see it's Kai's face and can he get anymore charming? He's by far the cutest, most handsomest guy I've ever seen.
Sigh. This is going to be really hard if he doesn't like me. But you know we'll see what happens.
I stare for a second before I realize that this is a bit odd. People normally don't normally stare at people for long periods of times. Do they?
I need to escape his gaze.
So, me being a dumb ass I sit up, fast.
Guess what happens when a person's head is in the way of someone else's head though?
Yeah. They bump into each other.
If only I had sat up slowly I would not have hit my head on my mates forehead and nose.
He wouldn't be holding his nose and squeezing his eyes shut in pain.
No. We would both be perfectly fine.
No one would have gotten hurt.
Ooof. My head hurts now. And it's spinning.
I'd like to say things like this have happened before, but it's happened before a few times. You know, when you don't think for a second and you just do? Most of the times these things happen when I'm extremely nervous,. Luckily only a few of these incidents have happened in front of people.
My head's in my hands while he's holding his nose. I can already see a of a bruise forming on his forehead, but since we're werewolves it should be gone within the hour.
"Sorry." I squeak out. Why do I always sound like such a baby around him. This isn't who I am. I'm a strong confident woman. Just because I found my mate doesn't mean I should change. No I should be able to hold my ground even if I'm in my males presence.
Nodding my head, I clear my throat, and take a big breath.
"Sorry. I didn't mean to do that." I sound so cold. I don't want to be the ice queen. I just want to act like my normal self around him. So, that he'll get to know the real me, not so warped reality of me where I mumble and hesitate so speak my mind.
"It's fine." His voice is it a bit nasally, but what can you expect if that person's holding their nose?
I rub my eyes. I'm really tired. I don't knwo why I can't stay awake today, but it's getting really hard to keep my eyes open. It's a good thing my headache is already fading into only a dull pounding.
"Why'd you wake me up?" I sound grumpy, and I kind of am. I haven't had food for how long? And being a werewolf I have a really fast metabolism. My throats parched and know I have a headache, a small one, but still.
"Oh, um, we're going to land soon and I'd thought you'd want some food, cause you haven't eaten all day." Wow, I slept through the whole flight. I'm amazed. I haven't gotten more than ten hours of sleep for such a long time, I didn't think I could still sleep that long. But considering I don't even know how long the flight is I don't know how long I've actually slept.
"How long?" I lick my dry lips, I'm in need of lip balm. "How long's the flight?"
He's staring at my lips. Omi-f*****g- God he's staring at my lips! I don't know what to do, so I look down at his lips.
Bad idea.
Really, very bad idea.
I force myself to look back into his eyes.
His eyes that have turned a shade darker with what looks like lust.
Well, s**t. He's gorgeous.
He swallows, his Adam's apple bobbing.
Ruby, stop. You must focus on something else.
I can't look at him any longer without wanting to do things I definitely shouldn't do with my forever in the first few days that we've met. I sit back in my chair staring straight ahead.
Kai clears his throat. At least he got the message that we can't keep look at each other like that.
"It was a nine hour flight." Nine hours. Wow, and I didn't wake up once and we're on a plane. A definite pro of having a mate. My stomach grumbles, reminding me of why he woke me up in the first place.
"Let's go get food." He suggests, obviously hearing my stomach grumble.
We quickly get up and go to the back of the plane, where they have a small kitchen stocked full of food.
I look in the fridge and see a pizza. My eyes light up and I smile a huge smile.
I loooovvve pizza!
"Could you get me a plate?" I can feel myself starting to drool and wipe my mouth with the back of my hand.
I stick my hand out and feel a plate placed on it. I bring it over to what looks like a pizza that Mo's personal chef, Leo, made. His pizza is the best thing I've ever tasted.
"I quickly run over to the microwave and heat it up. When it's finished I quickly eat it up. When I look up Kai's staring at me. I wipe off my mouth again and say,
"What?"
"That is the fastest I've ever seen someone eat pizza." A smile's growing on his face.
I blush. The way he said that made it sound like a compliment, which makes feel proud but at the same time extremely embarrassed.
The captain announces that we're about to land, and says all the usual things and me and Kai head to our seats. Once we're seated we buckle up.
〜〜〜〜
We land without a problem and all of us, guards and all quickly get off the plane. Now we're all in the back of a large limo. On our way to Paranormal Academy.
I've got to be honest with myself. I'm actually really nervous. I know for a fact that what happens here will change my life forever. I'm excited but also dreading it.
I was told by the driver that the airports only about a half a mile away from the school. So, we've only been in the car for a whole two minutes when we start to see the school. It's a castle and I think it's suppose to intimidate you, but when I look at it I get a welcoming feeling. Almost like the actual school is welcoming.
The rest of the way there I just look at the school and all of it's details.
Then we stop. Everyone looks at me, waiting for me to get out first. I take a deep breath and hesitantly open up the limo's door.
