I was standing with my back against my locker waiting for Connor to show up. He had texted me earlier saying that we needed to talk. No shit Sherlock! 

I had been waiting for over 15 minutes already when he finally decided to show up, and had it been anyone else I probably would have exploded on them, just a little bit! But the second I saw him walking towards me from down the hall, any annoyed feelings I was experiencing immediately vanished! 

"Connor" he said once he had approached me. Holding out his hand for me to shake! As if I didn't already know! Hello, golden boy and future Alpha, I'd have to be blind to not know who he was. 

However, instead of saying all the snappy comments that immediately rushed to mind, I simply slipped my hand into his, causing electrifying sparks to run through the length of my arm, and told him my own name in return. "Bella"

"Soo, Bella!" he started "it seems like we have a small problem on our hands!" 

Suddenly the smile that had been plastered across my face fell. "What do you mean 'a problem'?" I asked. We were mates, the only problem we were supposed to have was to decide when the wedding will be. Okay, so I'm getting a little ahead of myself here, but you get the picture!

Connor stuffed his hands into his pockets and dropped his eyes to the floor. "Look Bella, i'm sure you're a great girl and all, but... I just don't see this happening!"

I stared at him in disbelief. "You don't see this happening?" I asked. "this isn't just some fling Connor, we're mates!" 

Connor nodded slowly, "I know Bella. But i'm future Alpha. I need a certain type of girl to help me run a pack. And you, just aren't that type of girl! You understand, right?" 

I'm pretty sure at that moment my mouth hit the ground it was open so wide! "No Connor, no I do not understand! What are you saying?" I asked hesitantly, once I had gathered myself from the initial shock.

Connor took his hands out of his pockets and grabbed my arms -resulting in yet another round of sparks- he looked in to my eyes and said as slowly as possible. "I, Connor Harris, reject you as my mate, Bella Morin"

The pain that took over me at that moment was like nothing I had ever experienced before. I felt like my heart was literally shattering into a million pieces. And trust me that's no walk in the park! 

I quickly shrugged out of Connors grasp, and for a moment, I felt him squeeze tighter before letting me go! I then spun on my heel and started walking down the hall. My back facing Connor, that way, he wouldn't see me cry! 

.....                        .........                        .........                               .............                               ..............          .....

"I could kill him!" Mitchy moaned as she stared across the cafeteria at Tanner. He was sitting next to the dessert counter with a girl named Scarlet Ward. She was the prettiest girl in our high school, and god help us, she knows it to! 

The girl was perfect, no exaggeration! She had long curly blond hair, and deep chocolate brown eyes. She's the type of girl you wanted to hate so badly but you just couln't! 'Cuz on top of all that perfectness, she was nice to! A little cocky, but nice!

"Are you jealous Mitchy?" Emmi asked. A small smirk tugging at her lips. 

Mitchy immediately made a gag face. "No way Ems! I just hate watching him humiliate himself! Doesn't he know he'll never stand a chance with her!" 

The whole table erupted into laughter. The whole table except for me that is. 

"Is it really so hard to believe that one of us could really be good enough for a popular?" I asked, suddenly annoyed.
