Just another Day in High school

Addicted

The pic above is Tori. Again I dont know who it is but, she perfect for the part.

My eyes opened and I looked at a smiling River and Ethan. "Are you spooning with my girlfriend?"

"Absolutely. She's all mine now," I giggled and sat up slowly, not to wake her.

"Well then what am I, chopped liver?" River said acting hurt.

"Nope you're mine too." I stood and wrapped my arms around him. He took my face in his hands and ran his thumb over my busted lip. I couldn't take my eyes from his baby blues. They had me trapped.

He leaned down and placed his lips to mine. I smiled and kissed back feeling the electricity course threw my veins. "Okay love birds brake it up," Ethan said.

"Nah, I'm good," I said laughing.

"I haven't heard you laugh in so long," Ethan said shocked and grabbed me by my sides spinning me around in the air. "God I miss it."

"Sorry." My laugh died down as I looked at him. I felt bad that he worried so much about me. He didn't deserve that.

"Nothing to be sorry for," he said.

"Well I'm gonna go take a run, then a shower," I said going to the back room to change. I stripped and threw on my jogging pants and tank top. I pulled my hair into a ponytail and walked out the room. My tight pants hugged my body and my tank top did as well.

"Well aren't you sexy," River said as I tied my vans. My face got hot and I stood up and pecked his lips.

"Thank you." I walked out the door and felt the September air hit my body. I started at a light jog making my way down the road. I needed this breather. I needed this. My lungs grew and expand as I picked up speed. It felt so good. I felt so free.

I took my hair out of the ponytail and felt the wind rip threw the strands. I threw my head back and laughed. I couldn't help it. Things where looking up, I had River, I was away from my father, at least for the moment, and my brother was home.

"Where are you going goth girl?" I stopped dead and started to shake.

"What d-do you want R-Ryan?" I shuddered. The sound of a car door opening sounded and the hair on the back of my neck stood up. Heat was placed against my back. Arms encircled me and I felt my bottom lip quiver.

"Holly isn't here so it'll be just me baby, and I don't hold back," he said into my ear dragging me into the car. My legs thrashing and tears streaming down my face the whole way.

"So, is she your mate?" Ethan asked me his arm around Tay.

"Yeah, I've known since I first turned but, I just couldn't be with her yet. I didn't wanna hurt her more then she already was," I said looking down.

"You idiot. She's loved you since before you turned," he said smiling at me.

"Am I really that blind?"

"Yes," Tay said smiling at me too. My stomach began to churn something was wrong. "What's wrong?"

"I-I don't know I feel like my wolf is pacing inside of me. Something's up. Did Shell tell you were she was running too?"

"No but, you know she usually runs a few miles then comes back. She's like a wolf for that aspect," Ethan said.

"I don't know but, something's wrong," I said walking out of the house turning to where I smelt her sent. I walked trying to find her. I kept walking following the sent to the source.

I don't know how long I walked for but, the sent kept getting stronger and stronger. Soon I it started turning dark and I saw a figure on the ground. I ran over hearing the heart wrenching sobs pour from the body of my mate.

"Shell!" I ran to her. Her clothes a little fumbled tears streamed her face. "What happened?" I crouched down taking her face in my hands.

"I saw Ryan and he just started yelling at me and threatened me. I j-just l-lost it," she said threw her tears. I saw hand marks on her arms and I felt my anger well up in me. He messed with the wrong person.

She clung to my chest and I pulled her to me. She whimpered and I took her in my arms. Her body shook. "Its okay angel. I'm right here. He will never hurt you again." She only nodded. I stood with her to my chest and ran home.

I opened the door as she fell asleep in my arms. Her face was in my neck and her breathing even. I heard laughing then it stopped. "What happened?" Ethan said running to my side.

"She ran into Ryan, he threatened her. Look at her arm." He looked at the finger marks on her arms and his eyes flared.

"Let me see him," he said his eyes glazing over with anger.

"You're not the only one baby," Tay said growling. "No one threatens my best friend and gets away with it. Her face was scrunched up. She looked pissed.

I walked away taking her to her room and laid her on the mattress. Her body curled up on her side. I pulled the blanket over her body and walked out the door, cracking it. "Still asleep?" Taylor asked her hand on her hip.

"Yeah, she seamed so happy. Then the asshole had to take it all away. God she can't get away from it." I said running my hands threw my hair.

"It'll get better. The moon goddess wouldn't give you Shelby as a mate if it didn't get better and it wasn't possible for you to make it threw this. You just have to have faith. Keep her safe, River. She's my best friend."

"I know Tay. I hate seeing her like this." I breathed as me made our way into the dining room living room area. "How am I going to tell her about us. Its not just me I'm telling about. Its Johnny, Tori, Ryan, Holly, You, Ethan."

"She hasn't bitten me yet. We've quote on quote mated but I haven't been marked," Ethan said. When your mate bites you during the mating process, to mark you, you get turned into a wolf. Only your mate can turn you.

"Oh but, still. You knew and never told her."

"True. It was never my place either."

"You know what. Just tell her we all want her to know. She deserves to," Tay said smiling at me.

"I think you're right. Just give me time on how to okay?"

"Deal," Taylor said looking at Ethan. "Now how about I mark you tonight and get it over with." A smirk played on her lips.

"Deal," he said bringing her to him and growled.

I covered my eyes and left yelling behind me, "I was still in the room!"

"My house my rules," Ethan said muffled. What am I going to do with those two?
