Elemental Wolves

Chapter 7 - Mate complication?!

(Cossette's POV)

I leaned against the bathroom door, breathing heavely. This is not happening... this is not happening...

Before I could act - the wolf took a strong step forward and dug its fangs deep into my right thigh.

"AHHHHHHHHH!" I screamed in pain and started to cry like crazy. The pain was burning up my thigh. Oh god... I'm going to die.

As my vision started to go black, I saw the wolf come in for another bite when it suddenly got bashed to the wall. Someone was standing beside me - breathing hard, I couldn't see their face, only their feet and legs. That's when I went out.

~4 hours later in the Infirmary~

I slowly opened my eyes as I looked up at a a plain white cieling. Confused, I try to sit up, but quickly cringe at the pain in my thigh. I notice my surroundings and see that I am in an Infirmary.

What the hell?

"Cossette..." I quickly look over to the side to see Justin sitting in a chair beside my bed sleeping. Shocked, I reach over to poke him. He lightly parts his lips, "Hng..."

I poke him again, "Justin... wake up."

After a couple of seconds - he inhales deeply and lazily opens up his eyes, stretching in the process. "Oh Cossette, good morning." I give him a confused look, "Morning?" Justin adjusts to his awakening and looks at his watch. "Yeah, you were passed out for about 2 days."

"WHAT?!" I yell out a bit too loud.

Justin looks at me dead cold into the eyes, "Cossette, you were attacked by a rogue Wolf in your room two nights ago." My eyes widen in shock.  But the memories soon started to flood back into my mind. I lift up a part of my blanket to see a big white bandage all over my ( ) thigh. So... was Justin the one who saved me?

I look back up at him and I see him crying, "Justin, are you ok?"

He bends over in the seat, covering his face with his hands. He sniffles then breathe's out, "I thought you were gone..." 

I always thought of Justin as just a friend; that of course I actually kissed at our first meeting but still. He has got this nice and sweet personality but seems like a total nerd/playboy at times. Dirty blonde hair that can fit any 'scene' look on the net, and has these striking red eyes. But up to this moment, I don't know if it's just friendship I feel for him. I know it sounds wrong since he has Liz... but I really don't know.

Blushing a bit - I quickly mumble out, "I-I'm sorry for making you worried." Justin relaxes slowly and looks back up at me with his puffy red eyes, "No, I'm sorry for not coming sooner." Suddenly Patricia, Ivy, and Kiara barge into my room.

"Cossette!" they scream out, attacking me on my bed and choking me in hugs.

They all look so different... does 2 days make people change that much? After everyone settles down, the questions start rolling in. "What happened to the rogue?", "Why did it attack you?", "Was it hot?". I laugh a bit at that last one that Pat said. "I don't know, again I don't know, and how should I be able to tell?" I go in one quick breath.

Kiara rolls her eyes smiling and then all three of them go on again with more questions. I quickly look over to Justin still sitting in his chair to notice him staring back, with a small innocent smile on his face. I blush even more and try to focus on answering the many more questions getting piled on me.

After around an hour Ivy, Pat, and Kiara had to leave for lunch, but Justin stays with me. "You know you should go with them to eat." I say, avoiding eye-contact.
