The Ball Player's Mate

Chapter 2

***Angel's Pov***

When I got back to class put my hood over my head and walk into class, I took my seat at the end of the class.

*****Lunch*****

When I got in lunch I ate a pizza and meat pie, I sat alone at my usual table, I'm not someone that everyone likes, Kaitlin hated me and I don't know why, but she'd always say these rumours and try to hurt me, Chase sits next to me, he always does, even do he's the most popular guy in school he's so caring for me.

"Thanks for being there for me" I feel sympathy in his eyes.

"I will never stop being your best friend I hope you know that, that i will always help you, no matter how popular I am I've always sat next to you and ill never stop"

That meant so much to me, I liked chase, it's been a while, but I didn't say anything just in case he doesn't feel the same way.

***after school***

I arrived home and went to see my brother Jace that just got home, he's my loving caring brother, just like Chase, we'll they are both best friends, he saw my black eye and gave me a hug, we sat next to each other on the couch, he looks worried.

"What happened to you? Who did this to you?" I told him everything, and he seems mad now.

"Alex, Kaitlin and Jake did this to me" I told him.

Suddenly the door opens and Alex walks in, Jace gets up and starts walking to Alex, I'm scared for what I'm about to see.

"What the f**k you did to her? Your her brother, show more respect for your sister!" I could tell he's mad. A lot!

"We'll tell her to stay out of my way next time" now I'm mad.

"I was at my locker getting my stuff like any person would!!!" I start to yell.

Alex walks away without a word, tomorrow is my birthday, and ill get to know who's my mate.

At dinner I put some makeup on to hide the bruise from my parents, I sat next to Jace, I gave him a small smile. We ate and I went to my room and cried and cried, I felt pain go trough my body, and I couldn't stop myself but cry, I decided to call chase and ask if he wants to go for a run.

"Hey chase, do you wanna go for a run?"

I called him from mind link, communication from the mind.

"Yeah sure, are you okay?"

I could tell he knew that I was crying.

"Meet me at my house in 5 and ill explain everything" he sigh but agrees.

When he gets there he looks at me with worried face, I couldn't help but cry in his arms.

**Chase's Pov**

I walk in to the house and got greeted by Joanna's and Nick Hunter, Angel's parents, Jace looks at me from the living room and he looks worried, I knew it was about Angel so I rush to her room and slam the door open, she sits on the bed looking at me, tears in her eyes, she fell in my arms crying.

"Why does Alex hates me so much? She sobs in my shirt, it hurts to see her like that.

"Let's go for a run to get our mind off things"we got outside, we ran to the woods and switch to wolf form, I was a big black and white wolf, and so was the beautiful angel, but I was bigger and stronger then her, as we ran and ran I knew where we were going, to the lake, where me and angel always hung out since we were kids.

As I switch back to human form I see a smile on her face, we went for a swim in our bare clothes that we hide behind the trees, I splash water on her and she smiles and laughs, I start too, it feels amazing to see her smile again!

As night was starting to fall I could see her getting worried, I knew she didn't wanna be alone in her room so I said that I'd sleep on the floor.

That night was amazing, angel and I ran around, made food, watched a movie and did all sorts of stuff together like we used to when we were kids.

As me and her were watching a scary movie, her eyes began to close, and I knew she was falling asleep, but just as I was gonna wake her up, she leans on my shoulder and fall asleep, she seemed so comfy I didn't want to wake her up, so I fell asleep too.

When we woke up I saw a flash of light in my eyes, then realize it was Alex, taking pics of me and angel, I knew he was gonna tell the whole school, I got up and stole the camera from him and deleted all of the photos. I knew I had to get home so I left a note and gave it to Joannah to give it to angel.

***angel's pov***

I woke up on the couch, last thing I remember is falling asleep while watching a movie with Chase. When I got off the couch my mother passes me a note it says:

"Dear Angel,

I'm sorry I couldn't be there to tell you happy birthday, but I will at school I promise! And don't worry about anything, see ya at school!

Full of love from your best friend, chase."

I start to blush at the letter, I get dressed, eat and went to school.

As I arrived I saw Kaitlin and the 2 other bullies coming towards me, I got scared and ran, I was a fast runner, I wanted to switch in wolf form but I couldn't with humans around. As I bump into someone and fell to my knees I realized that who I bump into was chase. He helps me up and Kaitlin and the 2 others run up to me, but chase pulls me behind him protectively. Chase's best friend Jared, Jason and James all set in line with chase, I'm behind all of them, I big fights start and chase somehow got out, he takes my hand and yell at me "RUN!" And so I did, as we were out of sight and catches our breaths my inner wolf was screaming to me "MATE!", I looked up at chase and told him "you are my mate" he smiles at me "I know" he leans into me, pressing his lips onto mine, it felt amazing to be with him, and I was so happy he was my mate, "happy birthday angel" he smiles as I kiss him back, and we let go as the bell rang, he walk me to my locker hand in hand. Everyone stared at chase king, the most popular girl in school with Angel Hunter, and I was happy, also after school me and chase are going to go play ball together.
