Fangs & First Kisses

Chapter 7

LEXI
!!TW⚠️!! A BIT OF SMUT BUT STILL OK!!

My phone suddenly vibrates in the middle of the night, and I realize that a message from Lycan has been sent to the class group chat.

Guys, party at my house tomorrow night!

Is this why he's disrupting my beauty sleep? I groan awake and check the time. It's 2.18 a.m. I notice that Owen is online and start messaging him.

Hi

Hi Lexi, why are you up so late?

Lycan woke me up

Why are you up?

Parents are torturing humans.

Sorry you have to go through that

It's ok

I turn off my phone and look out the window. The starry night encases me in a place of light and hope, it's beautiful. I leave my room and find Pen and Edward passed out on the couch after shagging. Gross. I pour myself a glass of water and look out at the stars again. Checking the time, I notice that only five minutes have passed and I think about the party that I am invited to.

Is Owen going to be there? 

Wonder if Pen is going to make me stay back and watch over the twins. If she tries, I'll Brexit her head right off her body.  Edward suddenly wakes up; startling Pen and she wakes up too. "Eddie...I'm so tired. Let's go back to my room, okay?" Edward nods and he follows Pen in hot pursuit as she walks to her room. I hear them shagging when I enter my room again. These assholes... Can't you shag in a hotel? Why do you do it here? I climb back in bed and start to watch some TikTok on my phone before I realize that I have been watching for three hours and that it is time to go to school. I hop into the shower before Pen has a chance and apply some conditioner to my hair to make it extra silky.

I know Owen loves it.

Praying that Owen also put on lotion and conditioner, I brush my teeth and put on my fuzzy tank. I know I look like a damn pick-me right now but it's all worth it for Owen. I pick up my bag and head out the door while I look at my phone on the way to school. With my luck, I don't see Owen on my way to school which is a bummer. On the outside, I look fine, but on the inside, I'm wondering: WHAT THE HECK IS HE WEARING TODAY? Noticing that the excitement in school has died down, I don't have to hide myself and finally have peace in the school. I do miss Mum and Dad though; I truly want to meet them again but now I have Owen for comfort. Willmore is waiting for me beside my locker and she looks me up and down and asks,

"Who are you trying to impress, Ms. Skimpy? Owen, I guess." I blush and silently nod. I look at my clothes and I have to agree with Willmore; I look very skimpy. My stupid brain! Willmore and I walk to the homeroom. I sit down and find my favorite candy bar on my desk. Picking it up, I find a note attached to it. It's from Owen.

I know this is your favorite candy bar. Hope you enjoy it.

-Owen

I smile to myself, gently put the candy bar in my bag, and notice that Owen is smiling at me across the room. I love him so much...He's kind and smart. Lexi Daphne, control yourself here, we're in school! I try to control my face from turning beet red and take out my romance book. I've been reading them since freshmen year. Romance books are my favorite form of literature and I try to put myself in the books while I imagine Owen there with me.

And wow,  maybe these books are onto something because when Owen's lips were on mine, it felt like time had just stopped.  

At this moment, a new female teacher enters our homeroom. And it's-WHAT THE SHIT-Penelope freaking Daphne is our new teacher. Willmore looks at me and I shoot her a 'Don't blame me, I didn't allow this!'. Pen looks at all of us and stares at the classroom in disgust. Why did she even take up this job? I notice that she's still wearing the lingerie underneath her shirt that she wore when she was shagging Edward. "Sup guys...I'm your sub until you get a permanent teacher to deal with you nitwits." She groans as she clutches her head. I think she's hungover, classic Pen. I sit down and whip out my book as I start to read. "Lex, don't tell me you're reading in class."
