Rejected.

"Happy Birthday to you, you look like a gorilla and you smell like crap too" I rolled my eyes and tried to hide my burning checks as she got EVERYONE at Luna Park, even complete strangers, to sing her version of 'happy birthday' to me.

"Thanks" I said to the whole crowd of people, who even came to Luna Park at five o'clock at night? Although I guess that was kind of hypocritical since I was here but that was only because I had Neena as a best friend. Everyone cheered for me one last time before getting back to whatever it was they had been doing.

"Can we go on a ride now?" Will pleaded for what felt like the hundredth time.

"You just want to see me embarrass myself" I accused and he gave me a smug grin

"Hell yeah" he said. Did I mention he was a jerk.

"Can we go on the rides? Can we, can we, can we -" eventually I grew tired if his nagging

"Fine we can go on the freaking rides just shut the hell up!" I yelled and then

blushed when I realised everyone was staring at me

"Come on let's go" I commanded Will as I went to buy tickets.

"Ooh lets go on the Tumble bug" he said sounding like a two year old

"Unless your too scared" he added the last bit with a sly grin

"Fine lets go on the tumble bug, jerk" he just grinned smugly and headed towards the ride, making sure I was right behind him. I instantly regretted agreeing to go on this ride when I saw a girl get of and throw up a few feet away from the ride but I refused to give Will the satisfaction of me backing out.

I took shaky steps towards the ride and took my seat next to Will

"Scared?" He asked

"Nope" I lied and he smiled as though he knew I was lying

"Just try not to grab onto my arm to hard" he said smugly

"Don't worry I won't be grabbing onto your arm" I said, sounding more confident than I actually felt

"Want to bet" he taunted, no Shanan don't do it, it's a trap

"Sure" before I could give him the terms and conditions the ride began to lift us up, I resisted the urge to grab onto him and instead dug my nails painfully into my palm.

We reached the top and I squeezed my eyes shut 'I can do this' I assured myself and then the ride tipped me upside down

"I can't do this, I can't do this. Let me off!" I started screaming at the top of my lungs and was vaguely aware of Will's laughter but I ignored him as I felt myself slipping out of the ride, crap I was going to die. I contemplated grabbing a hold of Will but that would mean he won the bet but after a few more agonising seconds of that falling sensation I gave up in trying to be strong and grabbed a hold of Will's hand, he immediately squeezed my hand and my fear was replaced by butterflies in the pit of my stomach. For shit's sake, I was bloody twenty feet in the air, afraid for my life, yet I still had the capacity to feel attracted to Will, crap there was something seriously wrong with me.

"If you hold on to my hand any tighter people might get the wrong impression" Will said the moment the ride stopped, causing me to wrench my hand out of his. I stormed of and much to my dismay Will followed after me I turned towards him to tell him to get lost when I saw him eying some chick, without thinking I let out a growl

"Wow easy there tiger" he said, not in the least bit concerned

"I get that you don't care about me but can you at least try to empathise with my wolf?" That's right I was being civil with the jerk and you know where that got me? No where.

"Why should I care about you or your wolf it's not like you considered me or my wolf when you took off four years ago" seriously he wanted to bring up the past?

"I left because my mate didn't want me" I said, hoping my words hurt him as much as his words hurt me

"That's a load of crap and we both know it. You left because you were selfish, you didn't even stop to think how much your parents missed you. Your dad went crazy, he-" I stopped him before he could go any further

"You know nothing about what happened, if you were a good mate you would have been there for me but instead you judged me just like everyone else. You don't know shit about what happened to me and you think just because you helped once today with the 'killer' that your a great mate but your not and that's why I accepted your rejection four years ago, without batting an eyelash" there he wanted to bring up the past and that's what he got. I turned to leave and had the satisfaction of seeing pain flash in his eyes. Maybe now he would feel at least half of what I felt when he turned his back on me when I had needed him most.

"Happy freaking birthday to me".
