My brothers best friend is my mate!

A newbie

Here's the next chapter! I promise I won't bore you with some long message- so onward my readers!

After my little hospital visit things got quiet. Kyle checked up on me so often I was getting annoyed. However he soon was consumed with work. I went to school and became the center of attention. People were asking if I needed anything or if I was feeling alright. I wasn't evaded by anyone but I was now invaded by them. My brother hasn't been around much lately however and I'm starting to get worried. What is he thinking at the moment? Is he really blaming himself for what happened to me? He shouldn't because I did that to myself. I chose that path so it wasn't his fault at all. He may have planted ideas in my head but I'm the one who took them and ran with them. Aside from that my parents are happy together and we have dinner every night together. My mother is trying her best to make up for lost years but my mind stays with the worry. I worry for Hunter and for Kyle. I worry that Hunter may not forgive himself and if he keeps evading me I'll never be able to tell him it's alright! And then there's Kyle. His work as alpha is getting harder and harder. The eastern pack has attacked 4 of our 8 scout groups and hardly anyone are able to recover from it. It pains me to watch their families receive the news. I told Kyle I'd come with him when an attack happens and we lose members of our pack. It's the right thing to do for Luna and I need to be there for Kyle. I'm sure this is also very hard on him. I have yet to make my announcement of Luna, and plans of being Luna, public but I figured with all this chaos it can wait. Somewhere in my mind I know that waiting is the right thing to do. So I try to to be patient but all day long is always 'worry worry worry!' Worry about Hunter. Worry about Kyle. Worry about eastern pack threat. Worry about me and my stupid attempt which is now making me famous. Worry about my family. Worry about the pack. It's absolutely exhausting and I'm not even official Luna yet! Sighing I twirl my hair once more around my finger making it turn purple. I was currently sitting in history class and it's boring as hell. Kyle never comes to school anymore due to pack work. It makes me feel sad and lonely. I hardly ever take my depression pills though. I feel uncomfortable taking them. "Mr. Sage, Spencer is harming herself! She's making her finger turn purple and I'm getting worried. Should I take her out of the classroom?!" A girl shouts worriedly. I groan. Seriously? I was just twirling my hair and getting lost in thought. I'm not harming myself. Geez... rolling my eyes I look over to the teacher. He sighs and looks at me and then at the girl. "Alright. Take her to the nurse and let her rest a bit. Spencer please allow miss Parks to take you there." Whatever at least I get out of class. Standing up I pull my finger out of my hair and feel the blood rush back into it. Picking up my stuff I head for the door and the skinny little girl who spoke up follows behind me. I walk to the nurses office and sit down. The nurse was out at the moment... the shy girl goes to leave but I stop her. "Hey what's your name?" I ask. She looks at me shocked like but then answers me. "It's Marie Parks. We use to go to the park together when we were little." She explains. I think back to my younger days when I use to visit our town park. I always went there to sort out my emotions and loneliness. I don't remember seeing her face among those memories though. However I can't tell her that, it'll hurt her feelings. "I remember the park. I went there all the time to be alone. I've sort of been a loner since birth." I respond. She blushed and nods. "You pushed me off the slide one day and I broke my arm. Your mother forced you to apologize but it wasn't your fault. Another person had pushed you and you bumped into me and I fell off the slide. After that I guess we sort of hung out." Thinking back now I do remember a shy skinny girl that did talk to me for a while until she moved away. "Hey didn't you move away though? You were my only friend back then and then you left me. I was devastated. I can't believe I didn't recognize you!" Wow! I can't believe it! It's really her! She smiled shyly. "Yeah... look I did move and-" she stops abruptly. I raise and eyebrow in question. Why did she stop? What is she hiding? Maybe I'm getting ahead of myself. She probably thinks we aren't friends anymore. I smile. "Well I'm definitely looking forward to picking up where we left off. You said your name was Marie right?" She nodded. Hm... Kyle's not mentioned her and there hasn't been a meeting to introduce a new pack member. He's also very busy though so it may have slipped his mind. Maybe... maybe she's not a werewolf. But she has to be. "Are you..." I trail off, unsure if I should ask it. She smiles. "A werewolf? Yes I am." I laugh a bit. I knew it! "How long have you been here?" I ask. Her face gives a surprised look and she looks at the ground. "Um... only like a day or so. We just moved in, or more truthfully, I just moved in. You see I don't live with anyone. It's just me." Just her? Man that's got to suck! "Isn't that lonely?" I blurt out. I blush after the words leave my mouth. She giggles. "It was... but I have a feeling it won't be that way for much longer." How can she know? Oh well. "Oh... well I'm not feeling the whole history class thing so I'm going to stay here. You can go back if you'd like though." She smiles. "History isn't your subject huh? Ha mine either but if your asking to be alone I can understand that and accept it." She sort of bowed and then walked away. "I didn't ask if you wanted to leave I said if you wanted to listen in on boring Mr. Sage then be my guest but if not then you can stay here with me. So stop jumping to conclusions." I state. She bites her lip and I feel a pang of guilt. Maybe I was a little too harsh. Lately I'm always snapping on people because of how stressed I am. Wow. If I'm this stressed imagine Kyle or Hunter. I feel so bad for them. I must do my best to make them forget their worries for bits of time. If only Hunter would come around. He's really avoiding me and it hurts me. "Well... stop me if I'm being too nosy, but where did you move to and then move away from?" I asked. Marie froze and her face twisted into worry. Huh? Did I conjure up bad memories for her? I feel really bad now. "Well... it's complicated. Do you still consider me your best friend?" She looked at me hopefully. I thought for a moment. I hardly know the girl. But it would be rude to say I didn't like her- which I don't dislike her! "Well. It's been so long but I definitely don't hate you or anything." I respond truthfully. She nods and gulps. "Well the truth is... I... I... I'm from the-" Suddenly a knock interrupts us. I look over at the door and see Kyle standing there. Instantly I'm jumping up and running to him. Engulfing him in a hug I sigh in relief and smile. I missed him so much. Not being able to see your mate is heartbreaking. "Spencer..." his voice is soft and loving. I snuggle into him. I'm glad he's as happy to see me as I am to see him. "Who's that?" He suddenly pulls me back so he can evaluate Marie. Hmm... so he did forget she was coming.. poor Kyle... he's so overworked! "She's Marie! She just moved here. Well actually she moved back here. I guess me and her were really good friends when we were little before she moved away." I explain. Kyle suddenly gets rigid. "I wasn't informed of your arrival." He states. I step away from Kyle a little and he's instantly protecting me from her. But why? She's no threat. I mean she wouldn't lie. She seems really nice and if I trusted her as a kid she has to be trustworthy because I trusted no one back then. "Kyle it's okay. It probably just slipped your mind. You've been so busy lately..." I touch his shoulder, silently urging him to calm down. He heads my words and steps back, his shoulders relaxing but not loosening. "I'm Kyle Knight, alpha of this pack. Who are you and where did you come from?" He asks. I lace my fingers with his, hoping to reassure him that Marie was not dangerous. He ignores me. Marie almost flinches from Kyle's bold words but stands her ground. "I am Marie Parks. I lived here for awhile while I was little however I moved to another state. I did not join any enemy packs if that's what your looking for. I stayed away; as my true loyalty was here. Please, if you'd accept me, I know I'm late in introducing myself but please accept me into this pack." She bowed down slowly and lowered her head. Wow! I've never seen someone ask to join us. Probably because I wasn't Luna before now. Kyle tightens his grip on my hand. "Stand up girl." His voice was cold. My eyes widened. Kyle's voice had completely switched. It was much more authoritative; like his alpha tone was coming out. It was almost like a chain holding me down, forcing whomever to listen. I shivered and looked at the ground. Suddenly Kyle turned and grabbed my arm, pulling me away. "Wha... Kyle?!" I was confused now. What's he doing?!!! Finally we came to a secluded hallway. "I don't trust her yet. Don't go getting mixed up with her for right now. She says she's loyal to our pack yet her eyes say something else. I want you to stay away from her until I can prove her worth and loyalty." He stated, his voice a low whisper. "What are you saying? How could you tell?" I ask confused. What does he mean by that? "Look just trust me I don't want you near her especially if you're alone." He stated. He stare at me, waiting for my answer. I stared back him, unsure on how to answer. "She's my friend Kyle. I can't just abandon her!" I finally say. He sighs. "Spencer she left you. She came back after all this time? And especially when things with the eastern pack are getting out of hand? Jut please listen to me. I want to protect. Just until I prove her loyalty. Alright?" He was begging me. I could see it deep down in his eyes that he was scared and his intent was good. "Alright.... I promise to be careful but I won't not be her friend." I state clearly. Kyle sighs. "Spencer..." he wasn't too happy about it but he didn't argue either. "Fine just don't let that friendship cloud your mind. Okay?" I smiled. My mate over thinks things but I can't help loving him even more because of it. I nod. "I promise. I love you." I say, stepping forward and hugging him before pulling away and pecking his cheek. He sighs in exhaustion. I frown. "You need a break from all your alpha work mister alpha." I say. He laughs. "Yeah right. I can't take a break I'm the alpha. I better get back to work actually. My moms been yelling for me to come back since I got here." He explains. I frown. "This is not what I thought being mates to alpha was like. I thought it was so much better." I tease. Kyle looks at me confused. "I'm sorry-" I laugh and hug him once more. "In just kidding... your the best mate there is. One who works hard to protect what's his." I cuddle into his warm arms. I really miss this a lot! "I have to go spenc..." I groan and let go. "Fine... can I see you tonight?" I ask hopeful. However his expression makes my spirits fall. "Sorry babe..." I shrug. "An alpha always takes care of his pack first." I smile weakly. I shouldn't hinder him anymore than I already have. He kisses my forehead before leaving. I sigh. Back to class... yuck!
