The Rejection

Chapter 6

He sits there for a minute, letting everything sink in. He gets up and pciks up his bag. 

"You're crazy. This is crazy. You need medication. Therapy too. You actually think those werewolf stories are true? You are an amazing girl. You could've just asked me out like a normal person instead of saying this. I'm out, sorry," he says gathering his things and walking away.

I break down and start to cry. My chest starts to hurt and I can't breathe. My mate just rejected me. This can't be. Sally and Leon come back and Sally kneels in front of me. I tell her everything.

"Oh honey I'm so sorry. Let's get you home," she says. We wake Christina and Jay, then head back to my place. I feel like I'm walking in a fog.

Sally helps me get showered and dressed. I'm breaking, I'm numb. I knew I shouldn't have said anything. I sit in bed and sob. Why me? I didn't do anything to deserve this. Sally and my mom take shifts checking on me throughout the night. I couldn't blame them. My scars on my wrists were reason enough for them to constantly check on me every hour.

I curl into the fetal position and whimper. I can't do this anymore. I'd rather shove a knife in my chest than feel this pain. I can feel him slowly slipping away from me. I can feel him detaching himself from me as my mate. I let out another few sobs until I fall asleep.
