Chapter 6
School wasn't an issue anymore. I was able to focus more clearly. Partially because now Sebastian was in class with me, sitting to the right of me, occasionally sparing a glance my way. I never looked back at him, but i noticed. Even if he wished that i didn't. I always noticed.
You would think that after asking me basically everything about my dumb life he would be bored and move on, talk about himself, but every time i brought up the topic of his past, he became very quiet and sullen, which was not the mood i liked him to be in. What a baby.
Today is tuesday, the day i was planning on inviting Sebastian to my house to hang out and watch a movie or something. I wanted to spend time with him in a non-formal enviroment.
Now its math. I love math, although all of my friends hate it the most out of all the other subjects. They just dont understand the teacher. His name is Merga Finn. Weird name i know, but he is an odd person in heneral, which is probably why i like him so much. He is quirky, but still an amazing teacher. Instead of asking a student to get up and solve a problem on the board he asks you to do things such as juggle some change, counting it as you go, and although it has nothing to do with math, he often asks people to sing. Yeah, thats right, sing. Thank goodness, he has never asked me before because if he did, im pretty sure everyone in the class would pass out from expusure to such horriffic sounds. I wouldnt even call it music.
I sat there, concentrating on the lesson, laughing at Sebastians looks of curiosity and consusion as he watched Mr.Finn prance around the room singing "twinkle twinkle" but adding in his own lyrics to be the mathmatical equation we were learning about today. I could't help but blush a deep crimson and hold back tears of laughter when Mr.Finn grabbed me by the hand and twirled around with me, me humming along, and Sebastian practically on the floor with laughter.
Then the room seemed to freeze.
A tall, rather frightening looking guy walked in, with a smirk already played around the sides of his lips, and a sence of cockiness about him, like he felt that he was better than everyone there. He walked right past me, brushing my shoulder, and sitting himself down in the furthest seat to the back.
Thats when i noticed something very very wrong about this boy. I know it sounds pretty insaine, but a pretty dark shadow seemed to follow after him... and aura of sorts. Im not saying i can read your auras or anything, but this dark haze seemed to outline his body giving him a sinister and almost evil look. I decided right then and there to keep as far from him as possible.

Lunch time. My favorite period ever. Its one of the only times i can just sit and think, well when i go to eat outside that is. Inside the cafeteria, that would be nearly impossible.
I sat on the bleachers, soaking in the sunlight, and enjoying and light breeze that passed through my hair. Truthfully, i was looking forward to tonight, when my mom would be out of town, and me and Sebastian would relax a little, not worrying about anything.... maybe i would even learn more about his weirdly facinating past. I felt a light but cold pressure on my hand that was supporting the weight of my body. I gasped and yanked my hand free from under his touch.
"What do you want?" I snapped. I was not in the mood to be talking to him.
"Aw," he pouted fakely "youve made me sad. You don't even know who i am." He whimpered. I glanced at him to see if he was serious or not. That was my fatal mistake, although at the time i didn't realize what was going on. I stared into his eyes...they were a light shade of purple, almost pink, almost matching his full pink lips. I yearned to grab him and---
What?!?! what is wrong with me? I shook my head to clear it from this haze that seemed to settle over my mind.
"I am Sam by the way. In case you cared that is." He said taking a few steps around from me. Wait, where was he going?
"No." I forced my lips to say, although i wished to call him back over to me, and put his hand back on mine.
Then suddenly he was near me again, in my face, his hand caressing my chin, tilting it up so at to get a better look at me i suppose.
"No? Well, your eyes tell me a whole different story im afraid. And what is your name?" He whispered, leaning into me, soaking me in his cool breath. My mind went blank. I nearly slipped out the simple three letter name, revealing my identity, but a small part of my brain screamed at me not to say another word and to immeditely find Sebastian. What did i need him for though? Why was i so dependant on him suddenly? I have taken perfectly goos care of myself while mother is gone up till now, and i will continue to do so for the rest of my life.
Then, to our left, a deep threatening growl echoed across the field, drawing my attention at once. What i saw is not what i was expecting to see.
A wolf stood at the entrance back to the building, eyes narrowed at the place that sams hand rested against my cheek now, teeth bared, ready to attack. He snapped his jaw as he ran for us full speed, knocking down Sam, whose grip had tightened on myjaw, pulling me down with him.
We tumbled onto the grass, my head making a sickening crack against the edge of the last bench of the bleachers. That cant be too good.
When my head cleared enough to get up, i noticed that Sam was gone, but in his place a gray wolf now joined the black one that was previously there. Im assuming the black one is Sebastian since he told me about his shape-shifting abilities, and the other to be Sam. What weirdos do i hang out with?
They jumped at eachother, clawing into the others fur, snapping their teeth and biting into shoulders. I climbed up a few benches, not daring to get in their way in case it ended up badly for me.
After a few minutes of snarling and fighting, the two wolves stood face to face, breathign hard, both dripping blood and still furious. I ran down, knowin that the worst was over, and that sebastian needed medical assistance right away.
"Secastian I-" My body stopped moving right in front of him, my arms outstretched to grap hold of his quivering body. "I have to go." I finished, my legs carrying me away, further from the school, into the parking lot. I felt a pair of hands on my soon after on either side of me, now supporting me. Sam turned me around roughly, glaring down at me.
"So Nia, it seems you have befriended a god, who just so happens to be my brother."
