Finding Your True Mate

Chapter 20

Chapter 20

I was sitting next to Derek in his car. I was all packed up with all the essentials that I needed. I felt like I was leaving a lot behind but Derek promised that if I didn’t have something he would send someone out to get it for me. I sighed and continued to look out my window seeing lots of trees different sizes colors trees, trees. “How much longer until we get there?” I asked Derek turned his head to face me and smirked

“Getting tired of being with me already?” he reached my hand and gave it a little squeeze and looked back at the road ahead of him.

I gave him my serious face “Actually now that you mention it….” Thank god I was wearing my seat belt because I knew if I wasn’t my face would have left an impression on the windshield due to Derek slamming on the breaks. “Derek?! What the hell?” He quickly turned to look at me with a confused look on his face.

“Michelle, are you being serious?”  I unbuckled my seat beat and rubbed my shoulder

“NOO, you big goofball, I was kidding but damn why did you have to slam on the brakes so hard?” I looked up at his face and he was mad. “Put on your seatbelt. We are almost there.” His voice was so stern that I knew he wasn’t joking or in the mood to play around. I leaned over into my purse to grab my phone. I slid my finger across the screen and started to type out a text message to Rachelle. I felt like I haven’t talked to her in a long time.

Michelle: Rach I think how do u make a guy not be pissed off at you?

Rachelle: Well it depends. Who’s the guy? Are you seeing someone? What aren’t you telling me?

I know I couldn’t tell Rach about the werewolves but I’m pretty sure I could tell her about Derek. Seeing that were getting serious and all.

Michelle: Okay…so remember that day I went and got a tattoo well the guy who gave me it was really hot and I kind of sort of kissed him. After that he got my number through the permission form I filled out and we’ve been talking ever since.

Rachelle: Okay first of all creepy like who goes through a form to get a number why not just ask you for it after you kissed him. Second of all YOU KISSED HIM…why you didn’t even know him like however long it took to do your tattoo isn’t long enough to be swapping DNA. Lastly what did you do to piss him off?

I had to tell Rachelle a small lie I couldn’t tell her the whole truth.

Michelle: Well….im going to be staying at his house for a while because Dad is leaving for a conference and since someone broke into the house last night I’m scared to stay there alone and I feel safe around Derek. He doesn’t mind he actually was the one to come up with the idea. BUT were on our way to his house and I kind of made a joke which he took seriously and now he’s all in serious mode and I don’t know how make him unserious.

Rachelle: Well you could always seduce him.

I blushed so hard when I read that message. Seduce Derek? How the hell was I supposed to do that? I know I’m not ready for anything too extreme so I know that that’s out of the question.

Michelle: Anything else?

Rachelle: Wow okay so do you really like this guy?

Michelle: Yes, and I don’t like this awkward feeling between us.

Rachelle: Girl just show him you care and ask for forgiveness. If he feels the same about you then he’ll forgive you. Good Luck girl I’m at work now. Text me on how it went.

I quickly pressed the sleep button on my cell phone and placed it back in my purse. I leaned back in my seat and closed my eyes and drifted off to sleep.
