I Was Afraid to Love Before I Met Him 》》Derek Hale Love Story

Chapter 1

Xandra's P.O.V.

Bring. Bring. I slowly sit up groaning. I smack my alarm clock before I grab my phone off charge and swipe open my lockscreen. I open messages and click on Lydia's name. I type. Hey Lyd are you coming over so we can choose first day back outfits for tomorrow. You can borrow something of mine if you want. I press send and wait for a reply. 10 seconds later I get a reply. Sure Xan. Be there in 5. She replies. I sigh and sit on the bed and glance around my room.

I go to read the book on my bedside table before I realise I finished it last night. I stand up with a sigh and place the book on the bookshelf. I look at all of my books and realise that I have read all of them. I groan in frustration and walk to Stiles' room. I open the door and walk in. He is lying on his bed asleep. I sigh and walk over to him. I raise my hand and slap him. He stirs but doesn't wake. I slap him again but harder and he shoots up in his bed. He glares at me.

"What Xan?" He asks sounding angry and drowsy.

"I've run out of books to read. I finished my last one last night." I complain.

"Again Xan? Really?" He asks. I nod my head. "Stop ploughing through books so fast. But until you and Lydia get more you can borrow one of mine." He says gesturing towards his bookshelf. I smile at him and run over to his bookshelf. I look over all of his books before groaning. Hearing this Stiles looks over at me.

"Don't tell me you've read all of them as well." He groans. I bite my lip and smile at him sheepishly.
"I'm going back to sleep. Go ask dad for a book." He says collapsing on the bed.

I smile and whisper a sorry before heading to my dad's room. I walk in and see him sleeping on the bed. I walk over and shake him. Eventually he wakes up. "What do you want Xan?" He asks.

"I need a new book. And you need to get ready for work." I say and he climbs out of bed.

"Check my stack in the corner. If you've read all of them then check the 4 piles in the living room. If you have read all of them then come back up here and I'll give you some money so you can buy some new ones." He says and I smile before running to the corner. I scan my eyes over the spines of the books and sigh when I realise I have read all of them. I run downstairs and look over all of the books in the corner.

I see a book I am almost certain I haven't read. So I read the blurb and groan when I realise that I have in fact read it. Damn! I mentally curse. I run back upstairs.

"DAD! I'VE READ THEM ALL!" I yell through the door in case he is getting dressed.

"SHUT UP XAN!" Stiles yells from his room.

"SORRY STILES!" I yell back.

"Come in Xan and stop yelling." Dad says. I laugh and stroll in. "Here's $150. Buy enough to last you at least a month." I start to complain but  he puts his hand up to stop my protest. "Think of it as a gift instead of a holiday this year." He says pushing me out of the door. I smile at him and run to my room.

I walk over to my wardrobe and pull out a simple outfit. 》》See picture above. When I am finally dressed and my hair is done, I hear the doorbell ring.

I grab my purse and run downstairs. I pull open the door to reveal Lydia. I pull her in for a hug. "HEY LYD!" I yell happily.

"Why are you so excited Xan? You saw me yesterday." She states. Stiles comes down the stairs. "Xan. Lydia." He says before walking in to the kitchen.

"I am this excited because I have $150 to spend on just books because I have run out yet again and a ton of cash from web design." I say happily.

She laughs at me before whispering, "I have a ton of money for books as well and a ton from private tutoring over the summer while we were away." She says excitedly.
