You Got To Believe Me

Chapter Eighteen

Jonah

"So how did it go?" I ask.

It was the next day now, yesterday Eben and I went rollerblading and it was fun. We were suppose to hang out one more time before it was Blake's turn again.

"It was okay, I believe him." Eben says.

My heart stops and I freeze. "What?! But I thought you believed me!" I cry out, on the verge of tears suddenly.

Eben is quick to comfort me, pulling me into his arms. "I do! I believe you Jonah. It's just I also did the test on Blake and he passed." Eben explained.

I freeze again. Blake passed. There was no way he would have been able to pass if he really did it. Eben was a really strong alpha, my inner omega piqued up at that fact.

I wasn't even able to overcome Eben, not that I wanted to, just that I was a pretty strong omega myself, stronger than Blake for sure. Which means Blake was telling the truth. He didn't do it.

"Then who did?" I ask, not understanding. Blake was the only one to gain something from this.

"I don't know." Eben answers me.

"Was it really me?" I ask, starting to doubt myself.

Eben is silence for a long moment before he sighs and answers me. "It might of been."

"But I passed too!" I tell him, referring to yesterday.

"But if you 100% truly believed you didn't do it, because you 100% truly didn't know you did, you would of passed." Eben explains, looking me in my eyes, allowing me to take in his blue orbs.

That...that made sense. How could I forget doing that though?! It seemed impossible. Was my tiger really that upset about being here that it acted out without my knowledge? But it happened to Zach and Jack as well. It can't be a coincidence. Could it?

It was my scent that was all over the yard, it had to be me. Fuck! And here I convince myself that Blake was setting me up. I felt so stupid, looking down and the intense urge to cry strengthens.

"Hey, shhh, it's okay. I know you won't do it again. You truly didn't know what you were doing. It's okay. I think we just got to find a way to let your tiger trust me. Let it know that it is home here." Eben tells me.

"Yeah, that sounds good." I tell him, smiling, even though I felt like my tiger trusted Eben with my life and felt right at home with him.

"For today, what do you want to do?" Eben asks me, a smile spreading on his own face.

"How about go to the movies." I say, we were suppose to have a boring date now, and I mean watching a movie wasn't necessary boring but you couldn't talk so I mean there was that.

"Okay, what movie do you want to see?" Eben asks, onboard with the idea.

"Fast Nine?" I ask, not knowing if he was into that series.

Eben breaks into a grin. "Sweet, I have been wanting to see that one!"
