I change into some clothes that I find in the closet. Pajama shorts and a tank top. I figure it's dinner time so no one will mind me being comfortable.

I trek down stairs but as soon as I enter the kitchen I'm pushed behind Blake's body, "you're not wearing that!" Blake growls at me, eyes midnight black. I stare dumbfoundedly at him, "these shorts aren't even short Blake" I grumble. "You're showing too much skin! You're mine! Go up stairs and change now before I change you myself!" Blake yells at me. I decide not to push it and run upstairs changing into pants and a t-shirt.

During dinner we all make small talk and I find out a little bit more about the pack. They are the Silvermoon pack, and are apparently very powerful. I hear that Blake's dad can be quite ruthless but always protects his own. I wonder why Blake doesn't like him.

After we finish eating everyone goes outside to play a game of football, but with their supernatural strength I decide to stay inside. Esmay joins me helping me clean up after dinner.

"Why doesn't Blake like your dad?" I ask suddenly wiping a dish clean. "Hmm, well they've never really seen eye to eye," Esmay explains, "Blake always wanted to go to college and pursue a career but my dad finds it useless when he should be here helping."

"Oh." I say lost for words. I had no idea that Blake wanted to go to college. We've only known each-other a week but he hasn't mentioned it. Especially since he made that deal with me earlier about staying here. Maybe he's upset that he can't go to college with me.

My mind swirls with the new information, and my heart aches knowing that Blake can't choose what he wants to do.

"Don't worry," Esmay cuts into my thoughts, "my dad's a great guy, I'm sure he'll love you." I hope so.

After Blake and the rest of the crew finish playing, Blake runs inside. He wraps his arms around me, "I won, where's my congratulatory kiss?" He smirks at me. "You wish," I counter, "eww you're sweaty, go take a shower!" I say making a yuck face. "Only if you'll take one with me" Blake says winking at me. I blush, "I already took one but thanks for the offer."

Blake finally stops teasing me and jogs upstairs to take a much needed shower. Everyone else has come back inside looking warn down, all except for Megs of course. She looks like she could play 10 more games with her carefree smile and wide eyes. She comes up to me and sits next to me on the sofa.

"What's wrong?" She asks me, "you look a little bummed." I stare at her and decide to just tell her the truth, "am I going to be sleeping in Blake's room again tonight?" She looks at me questioningly, "you don't want to?" She asks still looking confused. I sigh, "it's not that I don't want to, it's just that I don't know how comfortable I am sleeping in his bed, especially after we made that bet. I don't know how long I could resist him with him pressed up against me."

She nods her head at me. "Well, unfortunately we don't have any other rooms open, but don't worry it's just one night. You'll be back in your own bed tomorrow, and going back to school." She says to me with a smile. "We better work on that Chemistry homework before we forget!" She says to me suddenly. As Blake finishes his shower, Megs and I start conducting our experiments.

Blake walks into the kitchen and notices our chemistry assignment spread across the dining room table. His hair's still wet from the shower, oh my god he looks so sexy.

"Oh man I forgot about that!" Blake says shaking his head. "Hey Sarah wanna help me?" He asks throwing in a smirk. I laugh, "why would I help you?" He grins at this, laughing slightly, "because we have chemistry together" he says with a wink. I laugh at the stupid innuendo, "fine get your ass over here!" I say still laughing. "I think you mean my fine ass" Blake says still smirking as usual.

We finish our chemistry assignment after about an hour and we all look exhausted. "This man is out to kill us I swear" Megs says slumping back in her seat, "I mean look at the way he always gives me the evil eye! What did I do to him?!?" She asks exasperated. "Well, maybe if you didn't walk in late everyday then he wouldn't hate you" I say laughing at her foolishness. She laughs along with me, "sorry, it takes a while to get this all ready" she says pointing to herself. Blake laughs too interrupting, "well I don't think the man hates anyone more than me. I think he's just jealous of all this!" Blake says in a girly voice mimicking Megs. We all laugh, easing away the fatigue from before.

I look at the clock and notice it's already 10 PM and yawn remembering how much I've learned today. "You go to bed," Blake says to me, "I have to meet with my dad about a few things." I smile sleepily at Blake, "okay."

I head up to Blake's room and decide to read a book. I love books so much, they just escape you from your life into a whole new world of adventures. I guess it's kinda like I'm living in a book now though, with all this werewolf stuff. I chuckle at this absurd thought and continue emerging myself in the glossy pages.

Right before I fall asleep I feel a dent in the bed, and a warm body snuggling up to me. "Goodnight" I hear muffled against my hair, and then feel a ghost of a kiss before I fall into a much needed sleep.
