His Angel

Chapter Twenty Two

"We had the talk."

"You had he talk?!"

"Yes we had the talk!" I whisper-yell to Lupe as I take my seat beside her in Mrs. Jean's class. Since the whole commotion Cara has taken to sitting as far away from me as possible. Hurtful? Yes. Am I going to do anything about it? No.

"Aaaaand... what did he say? I need detail!" She says while ducking her head to appear like she is working. It didn't really work, Mrs. Jean was shooting daggers at us.

"Well the ceremony could missy of a few things. Exchanging vows and gifts, his father saying a few words, drinking from a cup of our blood, oh and the horizontal tango." I sum up rather nonchalantly when, in reality, I practically had a melt down last night.

"I don't know what's worse the blood or tango," Lupe says rather shocked while staring at me with wide eyes. "Explain the blood and cup because that sounds sick and twisted."

"Oh it is," I sigh and try not to vomit at the thought. "So they've got this like ceremonial type of knife and we cute each other's hands and bleed into a 'magic' cup" I begin explaining, making sure to quote the whole magic thing.

Sure they, and they being the wolves, believed that the cup was magic but I didn't. People that change into wolves, believable. Magic dinning settings, not so much.

"Then we bleed into it, y'know mix it around a bit, then we like take a really big drink. Apparently it's suppose to like link us, but to me it just sounds really disgusting." Wrapping up my explanation I lean back and try to focus on whatever Mrs. J was trying to teach.

"And the taaaaaango?" Lupe draws out, trying to catch my eyes. All she sees, however, is the blood rush to my cheeks.

"I'm pretty sure we had health together, you know how it goes." I joke and continue to avoid the topic.

"Have you guys done, anything?" Lupe asks while wagging her eyebrows.

"No, and I'm completely fine with that."

"Are you really? Because last time I checked you and Zach were pretty hot and heavy and now you have your, very hot, soulmate. And you're telling me you're fine with just a kiss?"

Lupe stared me down as I sat there mulling it all over. She wasn't wrong it didn't take long after Zach and I started dating before we "sealed the deal", as he use to call it. But I guess I wanted this to actually be special. I mean how many people actually get to know that this one person is actually the one. Not many!

Sure would it be nice to do more than just kiss his perfect face? Yeah, yeah it would. Do I want to wait? Yeah, I think so.

"That's exactly what I'm saying. I want a relation not based solely and 'physical' activity. I want one of those cheesy 'best friend knows everything about each other' relationships. " I lean back in my chair once I finish my mini rant.

"Okay," she drawls out while skimming over her notes. "How are you and-" she jerks her head in Cara's direction.

Mouthing the words with a little hand motion, I tell her that I'd explain it all later. Y'know super wolf hearing don't need her hearing what I've got to say. Even though I honestly didn't know what to say.

We weren't exactly talking and hanging out as much as we use to, but we weren't fighting either so that's a plus.

"Ms. Valid is there anything you'd like to share with the class?" Mrs. Jean's voice suddenly rings out and I flush red.

The whole class has by now turned to stare. "No ma'am."

"Then I'd appreciate if you'd stop distracting Lupe and let me teach my class." Her eyes are narrowed at me and I can't help but shrink back a bit.

What happened to quite Mrs. Jean?

"Yes ma'am." Sinking into my seat I decide it best if I focus on the bored instead.

"Guess we'll finish this later?" Lupe whispers and I just give her a silent yes.
