We sit in absolute silence as they start to doze off. I rest my head on his chest, listening to his steady heartbeat.
I never thought it would be him. Everything seemed so planned out already. But I'm glad the moon goddess made this mistake.

¥¥¥ Jay's POV
So... my mate slapped me in the face.
Physically, it didn't hurt. Emotionally, it kind of did.
I know girls hit guys all the time and people don't think about it as much, but uh... I don't think I'm the kind of guy that lets that slide.
I did, though. I just sat there.
I didn't expect Kacey and her friends to defend me. Although I was frozen in shock, that made me a little happier.
I'm uncertain about how I feel about my mate now.
Shanaya, Susan, James, and I are currently in the back of the school with weed. Shanaya doesn't really smoke anymore since it's caused a few incidents. It makes her little sprite angry and we always hear a little bell chime inside her when she does it so James doesn't let her. She also doesn't like upsetting the creatures inside of her.
My pixie's pretty chill so I get to pretty much do whatever while he naps or some shit.
Since James is one of the teachers and a whole ass alpha, he also doesn't smoke it. According to him, that would be "morally wrong" or whatever. So I have to get high all by myself.
"Shanaya, are you sure you don't want to join me?"
Susan suddenly gripped my arm, catching me by surprise. "I'll smoke with you!"
Uh...
"You smoke?"
She opened her mouth to speak, but got distracted by all of us looking at her. "No..."
I see she's the jealous type...
Not sure how I feel about that.
Luckily Shanaya changed the subject back.
"Cindy hates it when I do and you know it. I don't want to force her to do anything. Plus it hurts my head when she chimes that little bell," she explained with a pout.
"What an adorable sentence." James smiled and wrapped his arm around her.
I always shiver in disgust when they start being cutesy with each other. But, I'm glad my best friend found someone.
To be honest, I was a bit iffy when they first met since James was kind of the most ruthless alpha in the nation and Shanaya was barely stable enough to talk to her teddy bears. Over time, though, they both started to change for the better. Shanaya started doing her prescription meditation (occasionally) and people don't even quiver in fear when they see James anymore. Although he could make that change in an instant.
