The Alpha Licked My Face?!

(15) Short-Term Memory Loss

I arrived at pack house with a surprised look on my face.

Nick was sitting on the front step of the pack house with his eyes shut with a backpack leaning on his leg. I walked up to him and poked his forehead.

"Wakey wakey sleepy head."

He opened his blue eyes and looked at me..... Wait! Why are they blue?!

"Nick?"

"Yes Kate?"

"Why are your eyes blue?"

"What?"

"Why are your eyes blue?"

"I heard you the first time!"

I was taken aback. Did he seriously just yell at me?

"Did you just yell at me?"

His eyes widened in realization.

"I yelled at you?"

"Yes, not even 10 seconds ago"

"Are you sure?" He asked incredulously, "yes, you yelled at me for repeating a question, do you have short term memory loss or something?" I replied.

"No, I don't have short term memory loss, are you sure you're not hearing things?"

"No, I'm not"

His eyes glazed over slightly as it looked like he was talking to his wolf. Slowly but surely his eyes began changing back to their bright emerald green.

"Nick, we should get going"

"Where are we going?"

"It's a surprise"

He stood up and grabbed his bag. We started walking towards the car and got in.

(15 minutes later)

We arrived at the edge of the forest. The one near my house, because there was a clearing in the middle that you could see so clearly from, that it was almost terrifying.

"Kaitlyn? What are we doing here?"

"We, are going to a clearing in the forest"

"Ok... Wait! Why?!"

"So we can see the sunrise....."

"Fine"

"What?"

"I said fine"

"What do you mean fine?"

"WHY DO YOU HAVE TO ASK SO MANY QUESTIONS!"

"I don't get it..."

"Of course you don't! You're just a tiny, weak, pathetic human girl!"

That's when I had heard enough. I got back into the car with warm, salty tears streaming down my face. What was wrong with him? He been acting like this a lot lately. Yelling and acting like I'm driving him completely up the wall.

I started driving as fast as I could straight into the nearest city. I just needed some time away from that monster. He used to be my dream guy. So kind and understanding. He never ever yelled or said anything bad, except for when he loses on Call of Duty, but he was wonderful. Keyword: was.

I have no idea what happened. It was like someone flipped the switch. One day he's understanding and caring, the next he doesn't give a damn about anything. He started looking at me differently. Before the switch flipped, he looked at me like I was the prettiest thing he'd ever laid eyes on, then it was like I was hideous and could barely look at me.

I just want everything to go back to how it was before.
