On the Run

Chapter 5:

Chapter 5:

        I had to leave Derek so I could go home and get ready for bed. I showered and did whatever I had to do. I put on a pair of baggy sweat pants, a sports bra and a white tank top that I had stolen from Derek. I was about to go downstairs to eat dinner when my mom came in.

        "Hey honey, can I talk to you?" she asked.

        "Yeah," I responded and she sat next to me on my bed, "What's up?"

        "Well, I've been checking on you and everytime I do you are never in your room. So where have you been going?"

        "I have been staying with a friend who lost their sister and they need moral support."

        "Well, in that case I am proud of you for being a good friend, but honey you really should of told me."

        "I know, but I've just been so busy. It just never crossed my mind. I'm sorry."

        "Well now you know. Now go and eat; you are getting way too thin!" She hugged me and I giggled.

         I went downstairs and ate some pizza then left to go to Derek's. When I got there I found Derek working out.

        "Hey," he smiled and hopped down and walked over to me and planted a kiss on my forehead and hugged me.

        "Mmhmm, I almost got caught mister. My mom has been checking on me in the middle of the night and she asked me where I was going."

         "Oh yeah? What'd you tell her?"

        "That I was sneaking out to make out with an insanely hot werewolf."

"Oh really? Well, I am very flattered."

        "I told her that a friend of mine lost a family member and that they needed me."

        "I do need you. You have no idea how grateful I am that I have you."

        "I need you," I kissed him and he moaned.

        "I'm still waiting for you to freak out; no human I have ever known has the capacity to handle this as well as you." When he said that I felt my heart tighten and I saw a young girl with brown hair; she was beautiful.

        "Rereally?" I stammered still shocked fromwhat just happened.

        I knew he wouldn't tell me the truth, but I wanted to see how well he could lie.

        "Just you," lie, I thought to myself.

        That night I just laid beside Derek and stared into the darkness wondering why he didn't tell me the truth. I wouldn't of held it against him. I also thought about what we were; are we together or just kissing buddies? 

        "Together" he murmered and I choked on my spit.

        Had I been thinking out loud? Maybe he was just talking in his sleep? I think I'm going to ditch tomorrow; Coach doesn't need me and I want some answers to who this girl is or was. I slipped out of Derek's grip but before I was able to make it away from him his hand gripepd my wrist and he pulled me back down to him.

"I don't think so, Connor."

        "Crap. How did you- stupid werewolf senses!" I muttered and he chuckled.

         I rolled my eyes and snuggled into his side. When morning broke I decided to work out while Derek slept. When I was in the middle of doing pull ups when Derek pulled my pants down. I gasped and accidently let go and fell, but Derek caught me and when he set me down he piched my butt and I yelped.
