Howl at the moon

Chapter 11

As I pulled into my driveway after my "date" with Connor I noticed Max's car was there.

"Oh goody" I said while rolling my eyes.

I took the keys out of the egnition and walked into the house. I felt my face flush as I saw Max in the kitchen watching the little TV we had for when we cooked. He turned around as I threw the keys on the table.

"How's Katie?" I said trying to be polite.

"Alright, she got sick after the meeting."

"Tell her that I hope she feels better."

I walked upstairs smiling to myself. I put on my pajamas.

It was quiet in the kitchen until I heard Max talk.

"You realize that Katie and I aren't mates, like at all." He said.

"Ya, I guessed." Somebody replied.

"I don't know what I was thinking. I wanted to make her jealous. I wanted her to chose me over Connor. I wanted her to forget me because I dont deserve her." He said quietly.

I gasped. I thought about my date with Connor. I was trying to get Max off my mind, so I hung out with Connor.

"What's wrong with me. Why am I such a bitch?" I said to myself, collapsing on my bed.

I sat there for a while not knowing what to do. I had tears streaming down my face. I heard my door open and I quickly sat up and wiped my tears away. It was Max.

"Sam? Listen I-"

"Lied to me, I know."

"And I-"

"Was suck a jerk, I know that also."

"But what I really want to say is-"

"You like me but your not ready..." I felt a tear fall down my cheek.

"No,no, it's not like that." He said wrapping me in a right bracing. I weeped into his shirt. He lifted my chin so I looked him in the eyes and he closed the gap between us.
