In Your Dreams, Alpha

Chapter 2

Elena P.O.V

Finally!!! Lunch! I am starrrvviinngg. As if on cue, my stomach growled rather loudly. I walked to the cafeteria to meet Ariel and as soon as I got there I headed towards our back table by the window. Not only was it raining outside, but it was starting to thunder as well. Hearing the soft pitter patter against the window started to soothe and relaxed me. I absolutely love the rain, it always makes my day just a little bit better. "Heeeelllloooo, earth to Elena!!" yelled Ariel as she was waving her hand in my face. I shot my hand up and slapped her hand out of my face and turned to give her the evil eye. She just laughed and said "I see somebody decided to stay cranky today" she said with a smile tugging at her lips. "Yeah, whatever" I grumbled. I took out my peanut butter and jelly and slowly started munching on it. "Hey I know what'll cheer you up!" Ariel exclaimed. "And what is that?" I asked sarcastically. "There's a party tonight in the woods behind my house I think we should go" she said with a grin. "Ummm, I don't-" "correction we are going so I don't even wanna hear it" Ariel said cutting me off before I could reject her idea. I rolled my eyes but didn't argue with her, maybe I did just need to have some fun. My mother wasn't gonna like this idea though so I'm gonna have to come up with a full proof lie if I wanna even think about going tonight.

****An hour before the party****

Ariel called me to make sure I was getting ready and told me that the party started in an hour. I quickly stripped out of my skinny jeans and sweatshirt nearly forgetting about this mornings events and threw them in my laundry basket. Pulling out some clothes from my closet that I find acceptable to wear, I throw them on in a rush. I walked over to the mirror examining myself starting at the top and working my way down. I have long brown wavy beach hair, that falls midway down my back. My eyes are electric blue and my skin is a pretty tan so many girls try to achieve in the summer. I am a little small in the boob and butt area but it's aight, I don't really mind about that kind of stuff like most girls. I am skinny but not too skinny and am about 5'8. I smile at my reflection, happy with what I see and head down to beg my mum to let me out tonight. As I walk down the stairs I see her watching tv with my dad on the sofa. My mum has dirty blonde hair, brown eyes and is pretty slim standing at about 5'11. To say the least, she was beautiful, even in her 40's. My dad has brunette hair like me but with green eyes. He likes to keep in shape so he's pretty built to say the least with tattoos covering his arms and legs. He's about 6'3 and where I get my sarcasm from. As I walked up to them I sit on the opposite couch waiting for their attention. After like 2 minutes, they decide to pause their show and look at me expectantly. "Okay so I know it's a school night but Ariel and I really wanna go see the premiere of 22 Jump Street, can I please go??" I say, shocked at how easily the lie rolled of my tongue. My mum looked at me as if weighing her decision and opened her mouth to say "is your homework done? What about chores?" "Yes and yes" I say. " If I let you go then you better wake your butt up in the morning for school" she says. "Yes mum"' I reply "so is that a yes?" I ask. She gives me one last skeptical look and nods her head in approval. I smile and hurry to grab my phone to call Ariel to come pick me up. "Saweet! Be there in 5" she says.
