“But that’s just so fucking stupid!” Michael huffed; he was pretty ticked off of a mark Mr. Cena gave me earlier today.

“Hey, I think I deserved that R, I didn’t … study.” I said quickly defending Mr. Cena. Even though I didn’t like him he was still sort of part of my family.

Michael paced faster ahead of me, clearly frustrated by the fact I failed religion.

“Look El, I’ve known you for like what… 4 days? And you are literally the smartest person I know. How in the hell, do you, Ellin Bethany Mayer, the smartest smart ass in the world, FAIL A RELIGION CLASS?! All you have to do is show up!” Michael yelled, causing all the students in the hall to stop walking and watch us. Great, now everyone knows I failed a religion class.

“I-I don’t know Michael, can we just go eat now? I’m starved. “ I patted my belly and hoped Michael would agree to come.

He chuckled and deeply sighed.

“Sure, let’s get moving!” He grabs my hand and leads me to the noisy room filled with the hormonal teens that were in the caf.

“EH! LOOKS LIKE ALPHA’S LITTLE FREAK STILL HAS HER FRIEND!” Harry shouted and pointed out at me and Michael.

Harry treats me like an actual human being if it was just me and him, but to his friends? I am nothing more than just a piece of crap. Michael interrupted my thoughts

“The hell? Why are they still calling you alpha’s freak? Isn’t an alpha a wolf or something?” I can’t tell him that werewolves exist he could die... so I just shrugged.

“Alright I’ve had enough for these little shits…” Michael grabs a chair then stands on it.

“OI STYLES, SHAHT UP WOULD YA?!” he yells across the room.

“YOU SHOULD REALLY LET GO OF ELLIN’S HAND BEFORE YOU CATCH WHATEVER SHE’S GOT. I HEAR IT’S CONTAGIOUS!” Harry yells back, clearly amused with himself. I actually didn’t notice mine and Michael’s hands were intertwined with each other until his hand squeezed mine, hard.

“YOU KNOW WH-“ I interrupted Michael. I nudged him on the arm.

“Hey Mikey, let’s just go eat lunch” I say, basically begging for him to come.

We got to Michael’s table I mean, “Our” table finding Luke, Mikey’s friend I also met a couple days ago. He had dirty blonde hair which was always styled up. He always dressed like a guy in a rock band but he’s literally a ray of sunshine. Luke is “The best soccer player in the country” according to Michael, but to me, he’s not that bad.

“Hey Lukey” Michael said trying to tease him, but it never works.

“Yo. Oh heyy Ella” Luke ignored Michael’s comment and greeted me.

The whole lunch period we were all arguing that if we were all stranded in a deserted island, I’d be eaten first. Even though I haven’t shifted, I still got a big appetite.

“Dad, I’m home with Michael, if you even care I came home from like 6 different buses with a blue haired weirdo.” I yelled. I know my dad doesn’t care; he stopped caring for me a long time ago.

Michael snickered in response and followed close behind me as we went up the stairs. He stopped and started looking around my house like it was a museum for all time low, him saying “woah” or “this is a sick house” every 6 seconds.
