Still Alive

Chapter 12

One Direction~ Happily

_Alexandra

Last night was amazing. Ashton really out did himself. He shouldn't have! Every thing was so beautiful. Well put together. Well thought out. I was in awe. I didn't think he would be capable of committing such a romantic gesture.

But I was still stuck on the tattoo he had. Was it really a tattoo? How could a wolf have a tattoo like that? Was that even possible?

I walked to my locker. Ashton was across the hall talking to his friends. I kept my eyes on my locker until I felt a presence beside me.

I looked to see Theo and Melanie. I smiled at them. Melanie shut my locker and dragged me to a near by table. They sat down on separate benches. I took a cautious seat.

"Spill! How was your date?" Melanie squealed. I let out a breath I didn't even know I was holding.

I thought I was in trouble. Turns out they just wanted to know how my date was. I mean ... what kind of horrible thing could I have committed this time?

"It was really nice. It was the best. The trees were wrapped in firefly lights and then there was a table in the center. Then we went to the lake. It was magical." I nodded with a smile.

"Aw! He went all out for you." Melanie squealed. I blushed looking down at the table. I let my fingers seep through the holes.

"You're blushing!" Theo pointed out.

"Well thank you captain obvious." I remarked sarcastically. He smiled pinching my cheeks. I pushed his hands away.

What was with them and my cheeks? Melanie pinched my cheeks not that long ago. And now Theo was attacking my cheeks.

"You guys are so cute." Melanie smiled.

"Hey! Wow! Calm down. It was one date." I chuckled. She smirked over at me. She knew me too well. I was ready for him. I was ready for us. Jesus! I was in too deep. I needed to back out. Quickly.

And I had just the plan. Avoid him! At all costs. That's what I was gonna do. I wasn't ready. No! I wasn't gonna give myself up just yet. I needed to run. Run for my sacred life.

"Alright! I gotta get going. Classes start in two minutes." I jumped up and walked off. Now I've gotta work really hard to avoid that sexy beast!
