Keeping (On Hold)

Keeping

“Iris?!” I hear Bryce yell from down stairs at me. I groan but know he will literally drag me out of bed if I don't get up soon. I jump up and take a quick shower right away. I grab a plain tight light blue t-shirt with black skinny jeans. I grab my black and purple jacket and go down stairs. I try to rush out of the door as soon as possible, but I am blocked by my mate Tyler and my brother, Bryce.

“Where do you think you are going, Iris?” Tyler asks.

“School,” I say. Tyler shakes his head slowly.

“Not yet, you need to wash the dishes first darling,” Tyler says and he and Bryce walk out to go to Bryce's car. I watch as they pull out and leave me to wash the dishes. I groan and quickly washes them. By the time I get to school I am an hour late due to all the cars being taken so I had to walk to school. The teacher yells at me, making the class laugh at me, Tyler in particular. I smile weakly and take my seat in the corner in the back. I am pelted when paper balls as I travel to my seat which suddenly seemed miles away. I sigh. Today was going to be a long day.

~*Schools Over*~

I walk by to the pack house and see that mostly everyone is home. I groan as everyone laughs. I look over and see Chloe and Tyler eating each others face and a sharp pain erupts in my chest. Without thinking I grabbed at my heart and bend over, panting. The pack members fall silent for a short time and them start laughing all over again. I am only relieved from the horrible pain when Chloe and Tyler stop to laugh at me. Don't get me wrong though, that hurt me, too. I had just enough strength to pull myself off the wood floor and wobble up the steps to my room. I walk in and crash onto the bed. It isn't long before Chloe pushes into my room.

“Why the hell were you eyeing my Tyler, bitch!?” she shouts.

“I wasn't,” I shrug and she smirks.

“Ethan!” She screams and in comes the pack defender, Ethan.

“She hurt my feelings, slap her and punch her, please!” she says. Ethan nods and steps toward me. I don't know what is happening until there is a burning pain upon my cheek. I go to hold it but I am hit and I fall back onto the bed. I lay there for a second, and when I get back up I see Ethan and Chloe are gone.

“I have had it!” I mummer agrily and go to grab my back pack from my closet. I grab all the clothes that I like the best and my brand new converses and my flip flops and put them into my bag. I grab my jacket and my warm boots and put them on. I then take a pen and a piece of paper and write...

Dear, Everyone.

I have left and I am sure you don't miss me. I am okay with that now, because now I don't have to deal with all that hate.

Chloe, Tyler is my mate, but you can have him, not that you would listen if I didn't say it was okay. Tyler, you are my mate, and I am sure Chloe and you will be the best ever. I reject you since I don't want to feel the pain as you kiss her. Bryce, you were a terrible brother. I guess I should say this but I hate all of you.

I am never coming back.

~Iris

I pull up a chair and put it a yard away from the door and tape my note on it so that they will find it easily.

I grab my bag and open the window, jumping from the height. I land on my feet without it hurting and I run, shifting as I do it.

Bryce's POV

I look over at my alarm clock. 8:00. Shouldn't Iris be making breakfast now? I am starving. Being as quiet as I can, I go down the stairs and peek into the kitchen. Wide eyed, I see that she isn't there. Me being the angry person I am, I shout up the stairs.
