My Best Friends Are What?

15. Mate

Rain's POV

I've locked myself in my room for a few days now. Nothing has come in and nothing has come out. People have continually knocked on the door but I've just ignored it.

"Rain please open up sweetie. You need to eat something" I heard Kendall say. She was like my second mother. I loved her so much.

I walked to the door and opened it slowly. I looked into her eyes and she had tears brimming them.

She pulled me into a hug and we cried together.

"I'm so sorry about everything darling"

I nodded my head and I looked up to see Jace and Brody behind her holding a tray of food each with flowers on the tray as well.

They took a step closer to me and I took a step back.

"Kendall tell them to leave please. I don't want to see them right now"

"You need to eat" Brodie said.

I took a proper look at them and you couldn't tell it was them. Their eyes were bloodshot red from crying so much and they had massive bags under them. Their clothes were wrinkled and their hair was messed up like they'd been pulling at it over and over.

'I'm sorry' I mouthed to them. Then I slammed the door in their faces.

I heard something and then footsteps walking away. I opened the door slowly and there were 2 trays of food at my door. I looked down the hall and the boys looked back at me with a slight smile once they saw I took the food into my room.

I ate every single thing on that plate and it was amazing! French toast, pancakes, waffles, ice cream and fruit!

I grabbed the flowers and found a vase to put them in. I smiled at the thought of the boys getting me flowers but then my smile faded when I realised why I was angry at them. They lied to me. My whole life.

I sighed and put my head in my hands. What do I do? I'm destined to be with them.

I got dressed into running clothes and went downstairs. I walked through the back door and towards the woods.

I was half way through my run when I stumbled over a log on the ground. I heard some leaves crunching and looked around.

I locked eyes with 2 sets of big brown ones. I would recognise them anywhere. Jace and Brodie.

I stumbled backwards and they just stared at me. They lowered their heads in a submissive manner and I stood up slowly.

I took a few steps back and they whined. In an instant they were back as their human selves but they were naked.

I cried out and covered my eyes. I felt their hands on my body and I shivered.

"Open your eyes" they both whispered in my ear.

I opened them and looked at both Jace and Brodie.

"Rain we miss our best friend. I know a lot has changed but we miss you" Jace said stroking my face lightly with the back of his hand. I leaned into his hand and he smiled. I smiled back at him.

"I miss you guys so much but... I'm scared" I said honestly.

"We are never ever going to hurt you" Brodie said honestly.

"You are werewolves"

"We don't bite people like you may have seen in movies Rain. We hunt animals and that's not very often. Only every few months when our wolf needs it. We eat normal food like you. We survive just like you do" Brodie said.
