My Last Breath

Being Bullied makes new friends

Walking into the library I put on a brave face so  Addison wouldn't notice that I was upset. I was supposed to meet her and Bree here so we could work on some homework together. That was Addisons idea since she know how I hate reading or writing anything with out help because I'm dislexic.

I sat down at the table with Bree while we waited for Addison to come back with the book she needed. The wolves walked into the library not to long after I sat down and scattered throughout the place. Wynter sat behind me and Bree I could tell she was hurting because of the Alphas words just as much as I was. I didn't even make eye contact with her cause I didn't want her pity.

Eventually Addison sat down next to me right as Wynter took Bree's homework and started eating it.

"Hey! That dog just ate my homework!" She exclaimed. Right after she said that a book was slammed down onto the table scaring the living daylights out of me and making me jump.

"Lies! These books claim the wolves attacked Seabrook settlers. But they struck first and stole our moonstone!" The Alpha stated looking directly at Addison.

"I'm sorry. I didn't know that." Addison said back.

"There's a lot you don't know." The alpha said picking up the books and started walking towards the exit.

"I do know that if you don't check out those books the alarms gonna go off!"

The she-wolf then took off her necklace threw it at the alarm and walked through with no problem and then taking it back.

"Our necklaces have a way with electronics. Oh and by the way I'm Wyatt and that was Willa." The male wolf whispered in my ear. Before he left he slipped a note in my hand. I decided that I was just gonna do homework at home with Addison later so I pack up my stuff and left.

As I was walking down the hall I read the note it said...

Meet me before the last class of the day by the trophy cases
                           -Wyatt

I wonder what he wants to talk about. I don't even know if he should be talking to me considering what Willa said earlier.

*time skip*

I just got out of class and I'm making my way to the trophy cases to meet with Wyatt. I'm a nervous wreck. I don't know what is gonna happen.

When I got to the cases I saw Wyatt standing there waiting for me. As I got closer he looked up from the ground and smiled at me. I couldn't bring myself to smile back. He can't be my friend anyways so why bother.

"Hey." I said

"Hey Amanda. Listen I just wanted to apologize about Willa's behavior earlier. I saw how upset it made you and I know it upset Wynter too."

"No no it's okay really. I'm use to disappointment. I guess I was just kinda hoping to make some of my own friends so I didn't have to hang around my sister and her friends all the time."

"Well a sweet girl like you shouldn't be use to disappointment. And Wynter and I would love to be your friend."

"But Willa said-"

"I don't care what Willa said. What she said was wrong. Everyone could always use some friends."

I looked up to meet his eyes and I could tell he was being sincere. I smiled for the first time in what felt like forever.

"How about we start over. Hi I'm Wyatt and I'm a werewolf." He said with his hand stretched out.

"I'm Amanda and I'm a human cheerleader." I said while shaking his hand. We both eventually started laughing till the bell rang for the final class of the day.

"Oh what class do you have I could help you find it." I asked

"Oh I have English with Mrs.Smith"

"Me too! Come on we can walk together."

We finally arrived to class with a minute to spare. I found my seat all the way in the back on the right side while Wyatt's seat was in the middle of the room on the left side. Soon enough the teacher walked in and started talking about what we're doing in class.

"Today we are going to be reading out loud to the class from the book The Great Gatsby which is what we will be covering for the next couple of weeks." Mrs.Smith said.

My face dropped and I started to shake. I can't hardly read in my own head. I can't read out loud! The teacher then asked who wanted to read first. No one raised their hand so she call on someone random. Can you guess who she called on? That's right. Me.

I looked down at the book and opened it with shaking hands. The words just seemed to jumble together, it didn't even look like English.

"Today Amanda!" The teacher snapped.

I was on the verge of a mental breakdown. "I can't Mrs.Smith." I stated in a timid voice.

"Now why can't you read out loud to the whole class. What makes you think you are so special that you can't do what everyone else has to do too?" The class started laughing at me while I mumbled my answer as to why I can't read out loud.

"You need to speak up Mrs.Wells!"

"I said I can't read out loud because I'm dislexic!" I snapped at the teacher. Everyone was looking at me, some were laughing. I looked over to Wyatt who was glaring daggers at the teacher.

"I knew she was a freak but I didn't know she was a stupid freak." Someone in the class shouted which made everyone start laughing.

I stood up out of my seat, grabbed all of my things, and ran out the door. I hid myself in one of the old Zombie safe rooms and just cried.

Wyatt's pov

After Amanda ran out of the room I glared at everyone in the room and started growling.

"What makes you think that it's okay to bully someone who has a learning disability? She can't help it if she was born that way or not. Now I can see why the elder wolves stayed away from humans!" I snapped at everyone in the room which made them all shut up. I was beyond mad at this point. I stood up and walked out of the room going to find Addison. She would know what to do.

I eventually found Addison and told her what happened. She looked really freaked out and told me to follow her. She started checking all the zombie safe rooms but we still couldn't find her. There was only one room left. Please Amanda, please be in here.

Amanda's pov

I heard the door open and the light turned on.

"Go away!" I shouted not caring who it was that was in here with me.

"Amanda?" I heard a voice ask.

"Addi?"

"Oh my gosh Amanda!" She tan over and hugged me. I started crying again. I hate that I can't do anything right.

Eventually I stopped crying and let Addison go. I then noticed that Wyatt was here also. "What are you doing here? Come to make fun of me too?" I asked

"No Amanda he was the one that came and found me. We checked every zombie safe room in this building looking for you. He is just as worried as I am." Addison said making me look at her. I turned back to Wyatt with disbelief written all over my face.

"Did you really do that?" I asked.

"Yeah. What the teacher and those kids said was disrespectful. No one should be bullied just because they were born with a learning disability. Besides no one hurts a friend of mine with out consequences."

I got up and hugged him saying thank over and over again. I couldn't believe that he would stand up for me even though we just met.

"There is no need to thank me Amanda. You being friends with me makes you a part of the pack. Us werewolves are very protective of what is ours and our family."
