Noah

Stars

At night while we were all having dinner . I mean me , Mark and Jane since my parents have already left .
Allias was supposed to come over tomorrow . I was excited for him to come tho but Jane was half and half . " Am bored!!" Jane shouted suddenly throwing his head back " you guys don't play with me " he said with a pout " seriously do we look like we are 7 years old " Mark said rolling his eyes .
" Jane " I called
" hmm"
" Allias is coming over tomorrow "
" we've established that "
" please don't fight with him "
" if he doesn't start it "
" please Jane just try to be nice ok I promise after a week without fighting I will take you out for ice-cream " I offered
He immediately shot up . " really ?!"
I rubbed my forehead knowing I might regret this if my mom finds out " yes , really but .. you won't tell mom "
" pinky promise?" he showed out his pinky  "are we kids? " I asked and he still remained adamant " fine , pinky promise " I wrapped my whole hand around his . I usually did that to show him how my palm is bigger than his tiny hands compared to mine . He glared at me while I smirked .

" so what about me ?" Asked Mark with a raised brow " you stay at home and do the laundry"
Jane fired . He got up to go and get a cookie jar omg am dead "who took my cookie!" He yelled from the kitchen . Mark laughed out as Jane came back looking like a raging bull . I sighed and slowly raised up my hand "you!!"
"Hey I didn't do anything the cookies were begging me to eat them ! They were like ' Noah please eat me I like the feeling of your teeth please' you know they even jumped on me to eat them  they were looking so cute I couldn't help it so I granted their wish" I defended myself .
Now Mark was rolling on the ground laughing and Jane was standing there dumbfounded with his mouth ajar . Am I lying ?
"You cookie thief!" He huffed and launched at me . I dodged swiftly .
The rest of the dinner we continue to argue and fight until midnight when we decided to go to bed . Not before having a pillow fight

In the morning
I yawned , as I sleepily rubbed my eyes . I tried to get up but realized that there was a heavy load on me .
Mark was literally laying on me . I looked around to see Jane laying on the couch soundly . I guess he can't handle Mark . I shifted , pushing Mark away so I could go to the bathroom . When I came back I realized it was only 3am . I trodded to my bed but then started hearing sobs . I confusingly looked at Jane . Is he crying? "Jane?" I called softly.
I went to the couch and tried to get him to face me but he was struggling . I managed for him to face me and I instantly felt my heart ache . His eyes were puffy and red and there were tears rolling on his cheek "Jane" . I sat beside him and made him look at me . I wiped the tears and asked " why are you crying ? Did they bully you again?" I asked but he only shook his head . This 15 year old boy suffered too much . " I miss them" he whispered and broke down again. I couldn't do anything but just embrace him while rubbing his back soothingly. "Jane please stop crying , you know they won't be happy right?"
"Can we go to the rooftop?" He whispered . " Jane it's late night" I told him . He looked up with puppy eyes "pleaseee?" . I rolled my eyes "fine but you have to stop crying" I told him and he immediately wiped his tears.

We went to the balcony . Jane pulled out his claws that were not  really big cuz he hasn't shifted. He started climbing the wall and I followed .  we looked like two spidermen . Once we reached the rooftop , we sat at the swing that was made for two and the view was spectacular . The moon was out and the stars were bright . I could see the road ahead of me and  only few cars passed .
We sat in silence watching cars pass every 3 minutes .
"The stars are beautiful" Jane broke the silence . I looked up and indeed they were . "Noah"
"Hmm"
" how come you are always there when I need you" 
He said without looking at me .
I didn't know what to say so I just smiled and went back to looking at the stars .
I have a nature that nobody understands at school , the only people I ever cared about were my family . Even some of my friends or should I say acquaintances whom only take me as a friend so that when I become the head Alpha they might get advantages . How I know this? Well I over head some group of boys I once called friends in 10th grade threaten Jane that they were going to take Mark's place as a head beta . It drove me crazy because this was me and Mark's dream , to work side by side . So hearing them say that made me angry and now that am in 11th grade I learnt to not trust them .

"I am serious Noah please tell me" Jane said finally looking at me . I shrugged and ignored his looks . 

"That reminds me you are turning 18 in  a months time , are you excited to meet your mate?" He asked .
Mate that was a word I don't use to think about .I know that as time goes on I have to find my mate whether I liked it or not . I just grew up with them that the thought of a mate doesn't cross my mind .
" do u remember when we were kids  the four of us all promised not to have mates that we had each other and it was All that matters ?" Jane said and chuckled at the last past . I smiled remembering the memory . I guess we will all have to break the promise .
"But we can still stick together" i told him. He nodded .
We spent two hours outside and then decided to go back inside .
