Being One Of Them

Chapter II

After the class was over, Matt came up to me, leaning in "Why don't you come with us?, bae", he locked his eyes with mine waiting for a response.

After a few seconds, I replied with a "Sure". I shyly stood up, picked my bag, and followed behind. As I exited I saw Luke standing next to the doorway, he looked down on me and then to Matt. They stared at each other for what seemed for minutes "Why are you bringing her?" asked Luke as he glared at Matt.

"Calm down wolfie, she's new here, we should include her... Besides, I like her" he said, wrapping an arm around me, looking down with a sly smirk. Luke gave a disapproving grunt and walked away.

Matt and I walked close behind him, Matt having his arms wrapped around my shoulder, I started feeling uncomfortable as I felt all the stares of the people on me, they started to whisper to each other making me wonder what I got myself into. I Slowly unwrapped his arm off of me and he gave a displeasing look "Aww you're so boring" sighing as he said that, I cringed at his words.

"Ahh yeah sorry, I just didn't feel comfortable like this''. I added: "Also what other subject do we have now?" I asked as we walked through the hallways of the school "We have lunch" Matt responded, he didn't even look at me and was just blowing a kiss to the girls near him. Woaw this guy is a total flirt.

Focusing on Luke I noticed he looked intimidating with his muscular back, making him look like a thug. By the way he looked and acted. I assumed he was a werewolf, must werewolves have honey-colored eyes while vampires have red eyes. He seems really serious, quiet with a hint of an introvert, while his friend here, Matt, was just a flirty boy and an extrovert at that.

Making my way to the cafeteria, I felt everyone's gaze on me, I tried to shrug it off but couldn't, what are these 2 boy's reputations? I feel like I got myself mixed into a gang or something... I couldn't bear the thought of people looking at me like that. I shrunk a little bit feeling their gaze.

"Ey Mia, we sit down there, literally the table that has no one on it" he gave me a little push on my shoulder.

"We'll get our lunches and we'll meet you there", and I quietly made my way to my seat.

When they finally got their lunch, they headed to their table, Luke sat down on the opposite side of Matt and I decided to sit beside Luke since I like him more. I don't want to sit next to Matt since he has a scary attitude. From my bag, I pulled out a granola bar and a small bag of chips. I looked at Luke's meal and saw he had a burger (Kinda big in my opinion) with a side of veggies. Luke caught me staring at his plate "Is there anything wrong with my food?" he says with a monotone voice as he takes a bite out of his burger.

"Oh no no, not at all" I laugh it off awkwardly and took a quick glance at Matt's food and saw mini pizza rolls on his plate but next to it was a white foam cup. Unluckily Matt noticed somehow.

"Wanna try the smoothie?" he said cupping the cup on his hands and extending it to my direction.

"what is it made off?" I asked as I eyed the cup without taking it out of his hands.

"Today is bloody Monday so we get a strawberry smoothie with maybe like an ounce or two of blood" he said and pulled his cup to his lip taking a quick sip off it.

"Curious about our food aren't we?" Matt added.

I nodded in response and said: "Hmm I am, I've never really been in contact with vampires and werewolves" I looked down on my sandwich and took a bite out of it.

"Well you'll get used to it now that you're with us" replied Matt, licking his bottom lip. Silence fell upon us and we ate.

After I finished my lunch I broke the silence "I have a question, why are people looking at us like that?" Well, mostly the people were giving weird looks, and the girls were giving menacing looks at me and it's somewhat scary.
