So, you take it back now? (Editing)

Chapter 7 - Shock

The booth was silent till the end of the ride. Once we were all out and had a second to breath all hell broke loose. 

"What the hell Bella?" I wasn't sure who said that. I was in to much of a daze. Crazy thoughts kept running through my mind. 

"Bella! Are you even listening to me?" I looked up to find a fuming Mitchy. 

"W-what?" I asked, suddenly confused.

"How could you not tell me he was your mate! That you were the girl he was talking about... the girl who rejected him!" Connor stiffened at Mitchy's words. 

"What?" I all but yelled "You really think a girl like me would reject a guy like him?"

Mitchy looked at me strangely before getting very quiet. "He" she said glancing over at Connor "rejected you?"

I nodded quickly, looking only at the ground. 

"Why didn't you tel me?" she asked, her hand reaching for mine. 

Tears started falling down my cheeks "I was embarrassed" I whispered "I wasn't good enough!"

Connor stood very quietly staring at me. "Bel-"

"No!" Caleb interupted him. "You had your chance, you gave up on the most amazing girl in the world. Now's my turn!" 

And that was the final straw. Connor immedietly pounced onto Caleb and pushed him down on to the ground. Punching him repeatedly. 

"YOU'RE TURN?" he yelled, still straddling Caleb, pinning him to the ground. "WITH MY GIRL?" 

A crowd had started to form around us. "Connor! Connor! Get off of him!" I pleaded. 

Connor looked up at me, but just for a second before hitting Caleb again. "Why do you care what happens to him?" he asked, looking up at me again "he's not your mate. I am!" 

I took a deep breath as I stared down at the ground. "Love is stronger then instinct Connor!" 

He looked up at me nervously "What are you saying?" he asked, no longer yelling. 

"Instinct, nature, brought us together, Love brought me and Caleb together. I choose Caleb! H-he was there for me! When you weren't!" Tears were pouring down my face at this point. Mitchy wrapped me in her arms trying to calm me down. 

Connor hopped off of Caleb and walked over to me. "No! No Bella please! Give me anothr chance!" he pushed Mitchy to the side and wrapped me in his arms, then brought his lips down to mine. 

Sparks. Fireworks, and everything in between. My mind was saying no, but my body. My body was saying YES! 

This is what we wanted, no? Our mate to love us!  My wolfs voice brought me back to reality. 

"No Connor!" I said pushing him off of me. 

"But you were kissing me back!" he complained.

"Like I said, instinct vs. love. I choose love!" Then I walked over to Caleb and kissed him. I could hear people in the crown whispering. But I didn't care, I was so happy with Caleb Sawyer!!!

"When did you grow balls?" Caleb asked me once we were safely in his car.

I chuckled lightly to myself. "Those cuts look pretty bad Caleb!" I reached my hand up to his cheek and cleaned a drop of blood that was pouring from his cut. 

"It's okay!" he said shrugging "It'll heal, plus I got the girl!"

I laughed as I reached up to kiss him "Yeah, you did!" 

Caleb wrapped his arms around me and pulled me close to him, kissing me with everything he had. 

"So" Caleb said once we had pulled apart "about what you said before"

He looked nervous, so nervous. "Yeah! I was thinking about that to! Being that we have already confessed our love I feel that we shouldn't waste any more time! All I need is a dress and a minister. We can be married by tomorrow!" 

Caleb looked at me like I was crazy. Like he wanted to kill me and admit me all at the same time. Then I burst out laughing.

"You should have seen your face!" I said between laughs. 

Caleb started at me dumbfounded. "so you don't love me?" he asked confused. 

I started laughing again "Not yet lover boy! Not yet!"

"Look at you Bells! You're the talk of the school!" Tanner and I were walking through the school halls together. He had his arm wrapped around me as he used his werewolf hearing to listen in on peoples conversations.

"Stop listening Tanner! It's so none of your buisness!" 

He laughed as he tore his attention away from a couple of girls we were walking by. "So are you ever gonna tell me what really happened that night?" 

I looked up at him. "Why? what are people saying?" 

 "That Connor got so mad he threw Caleb off the ferris wheel!"

I gasped. "What? That's crazy!"

He shrugged. "Not really! I mean with werewolf strength and healing Caleb could very easily survive something like that!"

I shook my head laughing. "Why don't you believe that theory!" I started "It's much cooler then anything that really happened!"

Tanner and I continued down the hall before running into Connor. 

"Can I talk to you?" Connor asked. He looked horrible. Almost like he hadn't slept all night. 

I nodded towards Tanner and he walked away, shooting me a 'good-luck' glance on the way. 

"What do you want Connor?" I asked.

He pushed me up against the lockers. "I'm not just 'some guy' Bells! I don't plan on giving up that easy! Plus just keep in mind that Caleb hasn't found his mate yet. What's going to happen when he eventually does?" he asked "And we both know he will"

And with that he walked away, leaving me suddenly not so sure in the decision that I had made!
