Werewolf Territory

Chapter 3:

"Is anyone sitting here?" He questioned once more.

"Um.. not that I know of..." I responded.

He took the seek right next me and continued to stare at me till I looked at him. His smile could make a girl squeal, his chin could cut through bricks, wait... did I really just say that?

"So how long have you been in Louisiana?" He asked.

"Um... about a year I guess." I responded.

He continued to smile as he looked away towards the front of the room. The teacher began speaking but I didn't really feel like listening to a history teacher babble about how it was gonna be a great year. I stared down at the desk and continued to pick off the black nail polish that coated my short finger nails. The bell soon rang and I was off to my third period which was French 1.

Third period went by fast and so did fourth. After fourth period Heath and Wellness I made my way to the cafeteria. The cafeteria was packed full of people, some in the lunch line and others piling into the open seats. I made my way to the back corner and took a seat at the empty table. I pulled out my phone and plugged my headphones in, I decided to mix it up and blast Fall Out Boy instead of 21 Pilots.

I placed my feat on the chair that sat next to me and continued to listen to my music. I scanned the lunchroom to find familiar faces but I didn't seem to know anyone. An alert popped up on my phone reminding me that tomorrow was the full moon, I dismissed it thinking about Adam. Did he know about me, about what I am? Was that why he kept talking to me?

The bell rang as everyone got up from their seats and once again crowded the long hallway. I walked to my last period which was art with Mrs. Codwell. I walked through the door and found a table, once again in the back of the room. I took a seat and placed my bag on the floor next to me. The room flooded with kids as it got closer to the bell ringing, nobody wanted to be late on the first day.

Adam walked through the door and spotted me in the back. I covered my face with my black sleeve and looked down at the paint splattered table. He walked over and took the seat next to me just to make me angry. I swear he just sticks around me just because it bothers me.

"Are you trying to avoid me?" He questioned while laughing a bit.

"No..." I giggled removing my hand from my face.

The bell rang and the last students rushed through the door and occupied the nearby seats. Mrs.Codwell began talking about the curriculum for this year as I slowly tuned her out. My thoughts began to wander into places they hardly ever entered.

I began to think about Adam, was he like me? Am I not the only one in Louisiana? Does he know what he is? My mind raced with a bunch of questions that seriously needed answers. The class was half over when a piece of paper slid in front of me. I unfold the sheet to reveal the words written in black ink.

It said "I was wondering if you wanted to hangout tomorrow after school? we could go get coffee or something. ~Adam."

I stared at the words written across the paper for a few minutes. Tomorrow was the full moon, what werewolf would go out during the full moon? Even if you were tame you still never go out just in case you accidentally shift, and believe me nobody wants to sit next to a wolf in a restaurant.

Maybe he didn't know, maybe he doesn't know that he is a werewolf. I looked over at his eyes and observed them cautiously. His eyes were bright grey, like mine... he definitely did not know. Almost all werewolves have grey or blue eyes when they are in human form, so he definitely was not human.

I nodded in response and looked towards the front of the room. The bell finally rang and I slowly picked up my backpack as Adam stood over me.

"Here" he spoke hading me a piece of lined paper folded in two. "My number... so we can talk later."

"Thanks... I'll uhmm... text you later." I stuttered.

He exited the room as I continued to pile binders back into my backpack. I left the art room holding the piece of paper like gold. He could not go out tomorrow, I had to make sure of that.
