The One I Never Wanted

4.

Graduation. Thank God we made it. After the encounter with Samson at the mall the girls and I applied for the University of Greenville. I called the office after we applied the next day and told her Samson had given us the direct number. I don't know what happened after that because a week later we all got acceptance letters in the mail. Full ride scholarships. My mom was so excited she fainted.

I texted Samson after our meeting as well. I didn't call because I didn't know what to expect of him. We have been texting everyday since. He is funny in a weird way. The serious type but I don't think he is always like that. He never called me. I would always call him and then our conversations would only last a few minutes. With me asking questions and him giving short answers.

I invited him to graduation which starts in two hours. He said he would come but his job keeps him busy so he doesn't take personal trips often. Or so he said. I can't help wanting him there. Over these past months I have grown to love him. Even though I have only seen him in person once. Even though we have never been on a date. Talking to him when I first wake up and right before I lay down to sleep is just right.

I look down at my phone as I get a text alert.

I'll be in row J seat 10.

I can't contain my excitement as I jump up and down where I stand.

"What's wrong with you?" Emma asks me as her and Rachel come over to where I am standing.

I stop jumping and glance away. "Nothing."

"Okay." She rolls her eye showing that she doesn't believe me. Rachel gives me her signature look.

I stick my tongue out at her like usual. She giggles and we walk to our spots on stage. Rachel in first chair while I sit next to her and Emma in the front row. She waves to us from her chair.

I look out in the the crowd, I spot my parents and Rachel's mom. Emma's Dad seems to be late but that's nothing new. He was late to every event in Emma's life including her birth. We continue to joke about it with him. Saying that he won't make it to her wedding until the reception. Of course he says he is going to prove us wrong like he said for Graduation and look where he is now.

As we get ready for the ceremony to start I look around and spot him. He looks so handsome and just like when we met seven months ago. I wave to him in the crowd and he gives me one of his rare smiles. I call them rare because I only seen it twice when we first met and now. Even thought we have Face Timed often I have doubts that he smiles still.

We sit down as the ceremony starts. Rachel gives her speech and soon it my turn. After we go through the motions we are soon outside looking for our families. We see Emma's dad finally arrive. "Hello Mr. Standon." Rachel giggles and Emma just rolls her eyes. "Look there was traffic I swear I left out an hour ago." Rachel started to laugh harder when Emma tells him graduation started an hour and 30 minutes ago. He apologizes like usually and we make are way to the cars. I take the time to look for Samson. We are going to eat then me and the girls are going to the club to celebrate. I do t see him outside so I text him where we plan to go. In hope that he will join us.

"Are you going to see your mate Samson?"

"Um yes, Sir Parker."

"Samson." Parker rolls his eyes. "We grew up together."

"Yes we did and yet you still call the king, 'Your Majesty.'" I chuckle at him.

"Shut it." He gives me a playful hit to the shoulder. A hit that would damage any other wolf.

"Ow. Ya every lighten up?" I ask him and he just smiled.

"Never." He walks back toward the kitchen. "Bastard."

I here his laughter as I walk out the door. My mate's graduation is today. It was hard being away from her but I managed. With her accepted to the school I don't have to worry about her safety. I don't know how her friends got in but I don't care. As long as it won't cause my mate problems.

After her ceremony I stand of to the side my eyes never leaving her. She looks so beautiful. In a short white dress with lace hanging off to the side. I can't see much for her robe is covering most of it. I look down when I get a text alert for her.

Dance? Me and the girls are going to the club. Meet us there?

I raise my brow in shock. Oh what a bad little girl. I don't respond to her text as I head to my car. She can't bet her cute little ass I'll be there. Nobody will touch what's mine.
