My heart. My heart my heart my heart. What is happening to it. Like what is happening to it. It feels like I am running out of breath and I long for something in return. I don't understand what is, I should text Ella,

"Redena! Where were you!? I was worried sick!!" Grandmother was standing right in front of our little cottage

"I'm sorry grandmother, Ella wanted me to stay a little while longer to help her study."

"Well that is alright, you are safe now. I am going to head to sleep. Good night Redena."

I didn't want grandmother to know Gray just yet. I mean I still don't know what I'm feeling. This has gone too fast. I mean I was disgusted of him, then we became friends, then something is happening to my heart. He's still a hopeless person that flirts with every girl in class...yes I check him out. I don't know what I should do. Thank goodness its the weekend. Although its also dreadful because it means its going to eat my brain up and turn me into a zombie.

"Good night grandmother."


*click, click, click*

[Hey Ella...so there's this guy that I met and I don't know what I'm feeling!!!! It's like my heart is beating so fast and I can't stop thinking about him!!! HELP!!! SOS!!!!]

Seriously Ella, I need you to text me back ASAP because my palms and feet are,

*chime*

[OMG GIRL!!! HAVE YOU FINALLY TAKE A LIKING IN A MALE???? WE HAVE TO CALL RIGHT NOW!!!!]

*click, click, click*

[I CAN'T!!!! Grandmother is sleeping!!!!]

*chime*

[JUST WHISPER!!!! PUT SOME HEADPHONES ON IM CALLING!!!!]

*RIIIIIIING*

"Bloody hell Ella, you better be freaking,"

"OH MY GOSH REDENA!!!!!! YOU SLY PIECE OF TRASH!!!!"

"Wow, thanks for calling me trash, narcissa. And hello? I need help!!! What's wrong with me??"

"Red."

"Yes Ella?"

"Red."

"Yes Ella?"

"Red."

"WHAT ELLA!!!!!!!! TELL ME!!!! DO I FREAKING LIKE HIM???"

Crap. I did like him. Even though he's a egotistical jackass, he's pretty cool and good looking.

"OMG STOP THINKING ABOUT HIM!!!"

"RED!!!! Shhhhh."

Crap. I forgot Grandmother was sleeping.

"Anyways, I better go to sleep."

"Alrighty Red! I'll see you tomorrow lovestruck, kisses!"

*beep*


*bark*

"Good morning Cookie! What's on the menu from the old gal?"

*bark* I consider Cookie to be my best friend besides Ella.

"Well this old gal is cooking up some bacon and eggs along with your favourite dessert, passionfruit custard. Today is a special day for you my dear. Happy 16th." Grandmother's soft lips kissed my forehead. It is my birthday today. Wow.

"So it has been exactly 10 years since my parents died." I didn't want to say it but it was true.

"Darling, we shouldn't dwell on the bad side of this day, thats for tonight, alright?" Grandmother made this tradition that on the morning half of July 17, we would celebrate the joyful occasion of my birthday and hold a memorial for my parents when the sun goes down till the clock stroke 12.

"If you do choose to have a party tonight, we can have the memorial tomorrow morning alright? Now eat your breakfast and yes I am allowing you to have breakfast in bed,"

*bark*

"with Cookie alongside you." Grandmother always had a strange bond with Cookie, I mean the other day she wanted to ring her neck but she pats her so lovingly and gently.

"Thanks grandmother, and the party thing is still undecided. Depending on Ella."

"Of course. Happy birthday Redena." She smiled like there was no tomorrow and kissed me on the forehead as she left the room. I am really happy that she was the one to be with me.

*bark*

"Hehehe, alright Cookie, I'll give you a bit of bacon."


Seriously, Ella seriously needs to text me back with the details of the party otherwise its just not going to happen at all. Forget it. No party tonight. I wonder what Gray is up to. His glowing eyes during the night just makes my heart flutter. I wanted to kiss him but it seemed to good to be true that he wanted to kiss me for good intentions.

*chime*

[ Good morning Red :) ]

Right on schedule. Seriously?? Couldn't he just leave me alone with my fantasies about him...ew.

*click, click*

[ Good morning Wolf, and how are you this fine morning? ]

*chime*

[ All good, now that I'm talking to you ;) and I'm assuming your morning is awesome? ]

Okay, he seriously needs to veer off the cheesy flirting.

*click, click*

[ Nice one -_- and yeah it's my birthday ]


Its been ten minutes!! He hasn't replied. OMG. I'm sounding like an crazy-in-love girl. I am not in love with him, thats for bloody sure.

"Grandmother, I think I'm just going to leave the party for next week because Ella isn't replying to me. Plus I wanted the memorial tonight because its tradition."

"Of course, whatever you want Redena. So how was school yesterday?" Grandmother was washing the dishes whilst watching my favourite TV show Murder She Wrote.

"It was decent but better than other days." I could see Cookie in the corner of my eye, begging for more treats, I think I spoil her too much.

"Well it was better than other days which is good. What made it different?" Reaching for a treat without grandmother looking, I hang the treat on top of Cookie indicating her to sit.

"Oh um, theres a new guy that came into my class and we really bonded. He's actually really funny and sweet."

"That's nice, what is the young lads name?" Dropping the treat to Cookie I contemplated whether or not I should tell her, but she is my grandmother, what could he have to do with her?

"Gray Wolf."

*SMASH!*
