Chapter 3

*Charlie's P.O.V.*

During this week I think I've grown about 2000 grey hairs and I don't think it's healthy. It's my 18th birthday tomorrow and apart from Kendall I think I'm the most stressed out person on the planet. My changing ceremony is supposed to be a magical moment that im looking forward to but I know it isn't as nice as in the stories. The first time you change you feel as if all the bones in your body have broken and are forcing themselves out of your skin. To every adult it's something interesting but I think it's scary as hell. I've been having these constant nightmares that I die because my wolf can't take the pain. This is something that happens rarely but the possibility is still there and that is enough to make me scared of my transformation. John has spent every night in my bed this week but even that hasn't calmed me. I think I'm going insane and I don't like it. I haven't seen my parents for more than five minutes this week and they don't even seem to care they just want to make sure this ceremony is perfect. I feel like nobody even cares what I think or feel about my ceremony, I feel neglected!

Right now I know a cold shower will help me so I walk into my bathroom with a robe on barely tied up when John wakes up in my bed, throws the cover off of his body and reveals his nakedness. He looks at me smiles and I can smell his arousal from all the way across the room. I smile back knowing from the pained expression on his face that he is struggling to keep under control as he doesn't want to take me right at this moment. I decide to make it hard for him.

"Oh my robe dropped" I say as I let my already loose robe fall from my shoulders. With a deep growl John is by my side at lightning speed and he shoves me against the wall. I can feel his need for me as he kisses me and I moan against his lips informing him that I want him just as much as he wants me. He moves his hands down my body till the reach my hips and I push myself every closer to him to show him I don't want to wait anymore. His lips move from my lips to my neck and I moan in pleasure as he nibbles gently leaving small red marks on my neck and chest. My small moans turn into cries as he gently rubs my core like he knows my body better than he knows his own. He is about to go further when we both hear the door open and shut. I groan in frustration as I hear my mother's voice shout, "Charlie darling are you home?" I quickly grab my robe wrap it around myself and run down the stairs.

"Hey mum, I haven't seen you in a long time. How are you?" I'm hoping to distract her from my scent but I can tell by the disgusted expression on her face I've failed. "You can call John and tell him to come down her and say hello and before you deny it I can smell his scent and your arousal all around the room. Also those red marks on your neck and chest look brand new." The smirk on her face tells me I have been defeated and I must now obey her every command.

I walk up the stairs and I can hear John chuckling in my room before I enter. " I don't know what you're laughing about you're going to have to sit through her special talk about me being an alpha and how getting pregnant is not the best thing in my interest and blah blah blah" the terrified look on his face makes me howl in laughter until I hear my name being called again from the kitchen.

I'm running down the stairs with John on my tail as I want to get this speech over and done with but I enter the kitchen to find Kendall at my dining table waiting for me. I grin think I have been saved by my fantastic best friend but I'm disappointed when my mum says "oh great Kendall is here too she can also hear what I have to say. Although I get the feeling that Kendall is much more responsible that my own daughter.

We sit red in the face and silenced as my mother completes her speech about her not wanting to end up a young grandmother and she leaves us in the kitchen almost as if she expects us to reminisce and recall any times we have had sex without protection. Suddenly feeling unsure I go into the bathroom and take a pregnancy test. When it comes out negative I sigh a breath of relief and walk back in to see an uncomfortable John and a nervous Kendall.

"So who wants to watch a movie or get something to eat?" I'm not hungry but I suggest this to remove the tension from the air. When they both shrug their shoulders I roll my eyes in annoyance as they just wait for me to make a decision. Since I can't come to a decision I decide on both and we leave to the mall. John and Kendall seem to have forgotten about the speech my mum gave as they get excited when we enter the Hollister store and joy flows through me as I see my two favourite people happy, so I decide to pay for everything they bought. Tomorrow I will be a full wolf so I decide to spoil them before I turn all serious on them.

I should be looking forward to it but thinking about it makes my heart pound and my palms go sweaty. I don't usually feel this way and instantly I know I'm nervous and I just don't know what to expect. My friends and family are excited but I'm terrified. I just have a dreadful feeling about this and I don't know why. Maybe I'm just being paranoid and I have nothing to worry about but in the back of my head something is telling me to be careful.
