I Did This?

Chapter 15

Chapter 15

The piercing blue eye stared down at me. I quickly got up and became level with the large figure. In a snap, I felt a wind of cold air hit me as the figure disappeared. I shook the mud off of me and made my way back to my destination.

I stopped in front of Zayn's house to carefully sneak around the side. I found my way to the back where Penny was waiting, already turned. Zayn was under the cover of the patio, protected from the rain.

"Where were you? You didn't know tonight was a full moon?" Penny asked.

"I was out with Alison. I misjudged the moon as I took her home." I replied.

"Well. You scared the crap out of me."

"Why would you care for me?" I snapped. "I would have been fine. I can take care of myself. I've been doing it for years. Longer than you have."

Penny backed off a little bit. Still confronting me about what was wrong. "I care because you're my friend." she stated.

"I was worried too." Zayn inputed.

"He was practically calling everyone. With the new pack arou-"

"I don't care." I muttered.

"Excuse me?" Penny asked.

"I. Don't. Fucking. Care." I spoke, louder than before. "I don't care if there is a new pack around. I don't believe it, even though I ran into one of them on the way here and the fact that you blab about them 24/7." As I spoke through their heads, I growled on the outside, my hackles raised and my teeth shown brightly. "Even if there is, it doesn't matter. I'm done with everything. I'm done with fantasies. I'm done with happiness. I'm done with fairytales and happy endings. I'm done with love. I'm done with you two being in love. You know why? Because I ruined everything. Because I've scared off the one person in my life that truly matters. The one person I've given my heart to. The one I love with everything."

Zayn and Penny stared at me in shock. The only noise that was heard was the sound of rain falling on the house and hitting the ground.

I calmed my angry demeanor, lowering my lips over my teeth and holding my high, as I was not ashamed of what I was about to say. Penny was going to say something but I interrupted her before she even made a sound.

"I'm done because I wish I was never a werewolf."

I turned around and dashed through the woods, away from them. I ran as fast as I could. Rain pouring down on me, blocking my vision as the water hit my eyes and face directly.

I stopped after I slipped in the newly formed mud, hitting a log and flying down a hill. I landed on my side, surely breaking or fracturing my arm. My assumption was correct because it hurt to put weight on my left arm, the one I fell on.

I limped under a tree that would cover me from the rain, after finding one of my bags I kept around in case I couldn't make it back to the house after I changed back. I rested my injured arm on the soft bag and laid down.

*Penny's POV*

After Harry had made his point, he ran. I tried to run after him but I lost him. He was too fast for me. I decided to head back to the house.

As I slowly made my way back, I smelled something new. It wasn't the heavy smell of rain, but something I may have inhaled before. As it filled my nostrils more, I could identify it.

It was.... I gasped. Zayn!

Immediately I ran home, fearing for my boyfriend's safety. I didn't want him hurt or even involved. I jumped out of the bushes to find two large wolves, one a chestnut brown and the other blonde like the one who had tackled me !the last time we met.

I growled at them, threatening them to back off of Zayn.

"Lookie here, it's the poor little girlfriend saving the oh-so-mighty human."

I couldn't tell who was speaking but whoever it was, I was going to tear their head off. The chestnut wolf quickly pounced on me, holding my paws down from above, glaring his teeth in my face. I copied his movements back at him, showing I wasn't afraid.

"Is this the human you came to save?" The blonde one carried Zayn in his mouth, dangling him by his shirt collar. "Zayn!" I called out.

"I'm alright Pen."

"I won't let anything happen to you." I promised. I flipped the brown wolf over, showing him I was stronger, and confronted the one with Zayn.

"Put him down." I ordered.

"Like this?" he challenged. He stood on his hind legs, holding Zayn about ten feet in the air. "No no no. Put him down. Gently." I specified. He smirked through the cloth of Zayn's jacket in his teeth and put Zayn down carefully.

Immediately, he ran to me and hugged me around my neck. I licked his cheek and then motioned him to go inside. "I can't let you do this alone." he said.

"Go find Harry then. Be careful though. I love you."

Zayn kissed my head. "Love you too." Zayn headed into the woods to find Harry, following the large paw prints in the mud.

The rain had slowly stopped and I was faced to fight the two wolves by myself. They stood next to each other, glaring towards me.

"Aww. Romance. I hate chick-flicks."

"You probably don't even know what love is." I retorted. "What do you want from me?"

"We came to distract you. You know it was a terrible idea to send the one you supposedly 'love' into a battlefield."

"Why? What's going on?"

"We don't need you. We need your friend."
