Evolution, The Future

Chapter Three

The next morning, my Nana woke me with some hot coffee outside on the lawn chairs where I slept. Feeling at peace this morning, I walk into her house to get ready for my day. Since I tend to get into trouble often, I normally come to Nanas and hide out. She has two spare rooms which one slowly became mine over time.

Walking into the room, I noticed my clothes laid out on the bed and smiled. My parents always wanted me to wear dress clothes all the time and be this proper daughter but Nana, she knows who I really am. Looking at jeans that are shredded in the front, some converse and a black band T. A smile stretched across my face as I raced to get dressed. Finishing up, I look at my attire in the mirror and smile. "Thanks Nana!" I yelled through the house as I heard the front door open. "Let's go Mo, you are going to be late." Running out of the house, I kiss Nana on the cheek and head for her truck.

On the way to school, Nana was quiet which is not normal. "Nana, are you alright?" I say watching a smile creep up on her. "Yes, I'm just thinking about your birthday." Crunching my eyebrows wondering why. "Don't worry about it, I just have the perfect gift that your dad will not approve of, but I want to pick the right time to give it to you." Whatever it is, it has to be big leaving her this speechless. Making it to school, we pull up to the front door and park. "Thank you, Nana." Giving her a kiss on the cheek and before I exit the car, her hand lands on my leg. "I love you Mo, promise me you will try to stay out of trouble. I have a feeling your dad might keep you from me." Promising her I would try, I walked out of the truck and headed for the doors. No matter what, that was the only thing my dad couldn't do; keep me from her.

Walking inside, I have my normal start of the day. Heading for the cafeteria to grab a snack and go to class. No matter how early I am, the best way to avoid people is not to be around them and I'm not much of a people person. Living here my whole life, I made no friends which I didn't mind since I was different. My best friend moved here three years ago, and his name is Damian. What made me drawn to him was how quiet he was around those who wanted to talk to him and the ink on his skin. So many people here are too proper for tattoos so at the end of the day, we became the misfits.

"Ah, trouble herself I see." Watching Damian walk into class with two coffees in hand. "Now, why did I miss the adventures last night?" Smiling, I grab hold of the coffee he handed me. "Well let's see. You want to be wild like me but have no choice to listen to mommy and daddy." Watching his eyes grow, Damian sat on top of the desk next to me placing his elbows on his knees. "No, I was already asleep while you tore up the city." Laughing as I shook my head and start watching the fellow students find their seats. Each one taking a look at me before sitting down. "Word spreads fast since Officer Dicks daughter has a bigger mouth than him." Shaking my head, I slouch down in my desk as the day started. I can't wait to graduate this year. My dad's goal is getting me into college, but I won't go.

Halfway throughout the day, I finally met back up with Damian for lunch. We only have first period and lunch together which is shit but it's meant for us to cause less trouble together. Instead of sitting in the cafeteria, we head out to the football stadium and climb to the top. "So, I have some good news?" He suddenly said as I laid down on the bleachers. "You lost your virginity?" I ask releasing a chuckle. Shaking his head while pointing his finger at me. "You know why I'm waiting."

"Yea, for the special one. The mate. Blah Blah. I believe that shit isn't real. It's only a way to put strong wolves together so they can keep each other in check and reproduce more strong wolves."

Watching Damian sit on the stairs above me, he laughs while laying down himself. "Well, I think it's true but no. You know my friend Alex, I told you about from back home? He keeps getting kicked out of schools so there moving here since my mom bragged about how well I was doing."

"That's because you enjoy school. I'm passing so I don't need to take any more classes. What's this kids excuse?" I hope Damian doesn't up and leave me when his friend comes here. I know all these years, I never minded having friends but It's nice having him being a reject with me. "My mom said he is high energy. When they talk about the trouble he gets into, it reminds me of you." Letting out a laugh, I shake my head. "No one is like me buddy." Sitting up, I face him as he stays laying down. "Well, I hope he causes more trouble here than me, so I get let off of the hook."

"You get caught because the whole police force knows who you are. He will get caught because his dad is this rich Alpha from the sticks." Man, I would love to go to the countryside. After having a moment of silence, Damian turned and looked at me. "You're not nervous about your birthday next week, are you?" Shaking my head, I look up and smile. "I will pray for the poor bastard that thinks I'm his princess." Letting out a laugh, we start to head inside and finish the rest of school. Unfortunately, I can't hang with Damian after school since I was summoned back home.

Walking towards my house, I see my dad sitting on the front stairs waiting to see if I would arrive. Seeing him look up, the look on his face seemed relieved. "What's wrong?" I asked walking up to him. Shaking his head, I watched him stand and gather me in a hug. "I'm sorry about last night. Nana called and told me what you said, and the evidence proves you were right. Why didn't you tell me?" Pulling back and looking me in the eyes. "For starters, when I do something bad, I get yelled at and when I do something good, well let's see... is it the same outcome?" Watching my dad roll his eyes. He turned around and started walking in the house. "Like I said before, talk to me first. You would make a great cop." As he closed the door, I laughed. Yea, me be a cop. That would never happen.
