5. The Truth That Breaks.

Arabelle's Pov:
Here's to the end of another long ass week. Cause its Friday! Was it just me or did the weekend take super long to arrive? I'm crabby when school started 4 weeks ago. This should answer that question:
Mr. Woods or Kellan was acting distant. His eyes didn't light up when he saw me in the hallway, nor did he greet me in the overly enthusiastic way, that he did.
His reply was curt and I was been spoken to only when acknowledged. You may be thinking I would dance and jump round the room cause he cut back on his freakishly obsessive behaviour with me, the idea however tempting did not appeal to me. You may be thinking this chic has lost her marbles. Confused soul, undeciphered emotions.

But hey! You weren't asked for your comment.

Something was wrong. And I wanted to know exactly what the schist was happening.
The only way I saw myself talking to him, was to get a detention that's what I planned on doing.
I did the things that irked him and I was the one doing it surprised him, he however chose to let it slide.

Skip to last class:
There I sat in Literature, waiting for the 'Grumpy Dwarf' to make an appearance, and he did his face flushed in anger. He looked at the class in pure fury. His eyes met mine for a brief moment, but he looked away immediately. We discussed 'Importance of being Earnest.'
"Arabelle what is your opinion of the book?"
I sat dazed as to why, was he targeting me out of everyone in class or maybe, he was trying to be professional.
Usually I would answer it, but decided why not push him to his limits.
"The book is a romantic comedy, with elements of laughter and satire. The story is simple, but at the same time complex in its elements. Honestly I don't give a schist about the book or the class."
And hell broke loose at the given moment as the class gasped at 'The Miss Goody Two Shoes' who stood before them, that had the guts to piss off the teacher.
Mr. Woods reached breaking point.
"Detention Ms. Steele I expect you to stay after class."
The class progressed without any interesting events.
Once every body left, he stomped to the door and locked it and walked to me, with determination flashing in his eyes.
"You never do this, so you better have a damn good reason as to the scene you pulled in class."
"That caught your attention. "I rolled my eyes and scoffed at him.
"It did and you surprised me. What the hell?"
"No, what the hell to you. What the eff is your problem?"
"What do you mean?"
"What I mean is, you were all freakishly over protective and clingy and now you just ignore. Well done! "
"Does it bother you?"
"Pfttt.. no you're weird and you're my teacher."
"It does. I can see it. "
"Well eff you and your attitude. I'm leaving. Have a nice day."
I walked to the door. As I twisted the handle, a hand spun me around and pushed me against the door, blocking any route to escape.
I looked at him and could see a trace of a smile, forming on his lips and amusement dancing in his eyes.
"It does bother you. I'm sorry for my abnormal behaviour. Truth is I'm scared... scared of losing you forever."
What.... lose me? Ohh hades wtf is going on?
"How will you lose me?" I asked, my inquisitive side taking over.
"You will hate me if you know the truth. "
"Tell me." I prodded.
"I-I"
"Tell the truth goddammit!" I all but yelled not caring who heard.
"I am a werewolf and you are my mate alright!" He yelled too.

What the...?
He's a werewolf and I'm his mate.
I stood dumbfounded for words, as my teacher revealed his secret, a secret that was out of bounds to process.
He spoke:
"I know this is hard to process but its the truth."
"You gotta be kidding me. This shit doesn't exist." "You're just trying to eff with my mind, well you just did."
"Its the truth I can prove it."
"Well Mr. Woods I think ur high. Go home, forget we had this conversation ever."
"No its the truth. Let me prove it to you, if it makes you believe me."
"Ohh...okay." I managed to get out.
He closed his eyes in concentration, as I stood watching. Slowly his ears sharpened to a point, his teeth elongated, till they reached his lips and when he opened his eyes I gasped.
His brown orbs turned bright yellow almost golden, but equally mesmerising and beautiful.
He closed his eyes again and I was staring at the Mr. Woods I knew.
He waited desperately for an answer, eyes earnest.
"Well you weren't lying". I muttered.
"I will never lie to you Ara." Sincerity filled in every word.
"But you do realise this is effed up right? You're my teacher for crying out loud, you could lose your job and the werewolf thing just takes this whole thing to a new level of insane."
"I don't care about the job, other than the fact that the very same job led me to you. "
"But-but.." he cut in.
"If the job is the only thing, that is not letting me be with you I don't want it."
"Why would you do that?"
"Because I love you and I know you do too, no matter how hard you try not to. "

Holy shit... he loves me.
He's ready to sacrifice everything, only because he loves me.
"I need to go."
"Well you are done with detention you could leave let me drop you home."
I silently followed, not bothering to argue.
The ride home was silent, mostly me pondering these things and him freaking out about my response.
When we got home I mumbled a thank you but he stopped me:
"I meant whatever I said. I love you I always will. I hope you can accept me for who I am."
He smiled brightly as opposed to the weak one I gave him. A smile full of hope.
As I sat in my room thinking of everything, I was aware that he was next door, metres away thinking the same.

"I love you I always will. I hope you can accept me for who I am."
These words echoed over and over making me convince myself of his love for me.

But the question was:

Did I love him?
