Deep Cuts Always Scar

Chapter 5

Everyone stood in shock as I recovered. My breathing was hard as Josh and Sean struggled to get up. Still holding my side with one hand, I walked over holding out my other hand to Sean to help him up, than Josh. They thanked me and I turned to see everyone looking at me in shock and...awe? I shuffled me feet nervously. "Umm..." I said walking over to Gordon.

"Wow," he said, "That was awesome."

I blushed looking down. "You've never been taught to fight, have you?" Josh added and I shook my head.

"Wow," he breathed looking at me amazed.

The pain in my side wasn't lessoning. "Man you can throw a punch," I muttered and Sean grinned."So can you."

I heal faster than normal but seeing as I hadn't changed not as fast as the guys.

Gordon said, "We are going to train you. I don't know why we haven't this year but we just wanted you to recover. But for the moment let's get you some ice."

He gently placed his hands on my shoulders and was about to take me inside when he turned to face the still shocked crowd. "We'll be leaving soon," he said, "Make sure that everyone one has their bags in a car." He turned back to me and led me inside. He sat me on the kitchen bench and turned to the freezer. He grabbed an ice pack and handed it to me after wrapping it in towel. I held it to my side and he rested his hands on either side of my legs. "That," he kissed my left cheek, "Was," he kissed my right cheek, "A," kissed my forehead, "May," kissed the tip of my nose, "Zing," he finished finally kissing my mouth. I lifted my non-occupied hand to the nape of his neck, pulling him closer to deepen the kiss. He stood between my legs and one of his hands rested on my thigh as the other went around my waist sliding me towards him more so my legs were practically wrapped around him. Our tongues explored the other's mouth and the kiss was filled with love. Gordon was yet to find his mate. We love each other to no end but I know that if he found his mate I would let him go because no matter who she is she doesn't deserve what I went through. It was going to hurt me but after everything he has done for me he deserved happiness. But at the moment I was happy with living in the present not worrying about the future.

We pulled away gasping for breath. I pressed my forehead to his and our eyes never left each other.

"I love you so much," he whispered and I smiled. "I love you more."

He grinned, shaking his head, then lent down to peck my lips, "Not possible."

He helped me off the table and we walked back out hand in hand. The whole pack was outside now in front of various cars, that lined up past the driveway and some in the multiple garages. We reached Gordens car that was next to the twin's and Josh's that was the furthest from the house.

"You taking your bike?" Josh asked.

I nodded and handed my ice pack to Gorden giving him a peck. The ice had numbed my side and I couldn't feel much except a slight sting as I ran to get my bike. I looked at my sleek black bike that had an electric blue strip down it and smiled. It was the first step I took to get over everything. The way I saw it it was my first choice I made. And it also helped that I couldn't ride , or drive for that matter, at home so it was my first rebellious step. I quickly put the helment on and mounted my bike. I slowly and carefully wove my way through the cars and people until I was back at the top.

"Ready to go?" I said over the rumble of my bike. They nodded and I heard Gorden say to everyone that we were leaving through out mindlink. All around me people slipped into cars, helping buckle in little kids.

"Will you lead the way?" Gorden asked me one leg in his car. I nodded slipping between his car so I was in front.

"Everyone ready?" I asked everyone and there was sighs of agreement. I kicked my bike off and speed down. I blocked everyone out of my mind and concentrated on the wind whipping my face. This is why I brought this bike. The feeling of adrenaline flooded my body as I sped up loosing Gorden slightly. I tilted slightly back so my bike was standing on one wheel. "Bree!" I heard Gordon slip into my mind but I ignored him knowing I had done this heaps. I need this to keep my mind off what was not even an hour ahead. I got back on 2 wheels knowing Gordon was probably having a panic attack. So protective. I slowed so he could catch up.
