Connor's POV

When I got the food for Howley and I, I walked back to where I left her. She wasn't there and I started to panic almost dropping the food.

I know I shouldn't have left her by herself. What am I going to tell mom? Who cares what mom says right now?! She's my mate, even though I haven't shown her my feelings for her, I should've never left her alone.

I felt a stinging at the corner of my eyes and realised I was crying. I haven't cried since my father died. Then Emily and Walter arrived with their food.

"Connor what's wrong?" Emily asked.

I turned around to them with the saddest look on my face and tears rushing out my eyes.

"H-howley i-i-isn't h-h-h-here, I-I l-lost h-her." I stuttered as my voice cracked.

"We'll find her, don't cry." Walter assured me.

I took my glasses off and wiped my eyes and put them back on.

Ethan's POV

I've been staring at her for the longest while, she doesn't seem to smile at all, just scowl. Her eyes are emotionless, her hair is untamed like a lion's mane, her body resembles an hour glass, everything about her is perfect.

Right now, we're sitting down eating McDonalds. For a tiny girl, she eats like a beast, she ate 5 mcdoubles, 2 boxes of mcnuggets, 3 large fries and 3 sodas.

I sat down and watched her eat it all and finished in about 10 minutes. We started walking around the mall for a bit and looked at different stores. She's a very relatable person even though she doesn't talk a lot. As we walked,I stared at her, she seems so concentrated on something every time I look at her. I can't take my eyes off of her.
It's as if she can feel me looking at her.

"You're staring." She said not looking.

"Sorry." I said as I whipped my head to the front.

I continued staring at her from the corner of my eye as we walked.

Howley's POV

Ethan seems very strange, but he's very kind. I was ready to go home and I wanted my mate. Now. Ethan and I were walking, until I heard something.

"Howley!" I heard my mate shout.

I looked back to see him sprinting towards me. He embraced me in a tight hug, almost knocking me over. I put my arms around him and returned the hug. He took me out of the embrace and looked me in my eyes. I saw tear stains on his cheeks.

Was he crying... for...... me?

"Please don't wonder off again." He said shakily.

Ethan cleared his throat and we both looked back on him.

"Who's that Howley?" Connor asked as he slipped his arm around waist.

"T-that's E-e-ethan." I stuttered.

I don't stutter, what's going on?

I was so taken back by his actions I couldn't even answer.

"I'm Connor." He said as he clenched his jaw and gave Ethan a firm handshake.

"Well, it was nice meeting you both, see you soon." Ethan said as he turned around and walked away.

"Where are Emily and Walter?" I asked as we both walked out of the mall.

"In the car waiting for us." He replied.

"Okay." I said and continued walking.

Connor's POV

It was 3:45 and we were on our way home. The fact that Howley was with another guy, got me a kinda jealous.

Howley has her head rested on my shoulder, fast asleep with her usual scowl. I tensed up as I felt her tiny arms wrap around me. She's so adorable it hurts.
Shortly afterwards, we arrived home. Emily and Walter went home to get some clothes and come back. Mom and the twins weren't home yet and I was in my bed scrolling through my phone, while Howley was looking around my bookshelf. She walked over with my Math book and sat down on the edge of the bed.

She slowly flipped the page as she read every single thing on the page. She seemed very interested in the book, which was a surprise to me. A certain question itched me for almost the entire day and I'm too scared to ask.

I can do this,it's just a question.

"Howley." I said.

Her ears perked up at the sound of her name and slowly turned around to me.

"Yes Connor." She answered.

"I wanted to know if you... ever.. l-loved someone." I struggled to get out.

"Yes,very much." She answered.

My heart sank from her response. I know she's destined to love me, but she could've been with someone else or still is.

"Who is it?"I asked sadly.

She gave me an 'are you serious' face before answering.

"You." She answered smoothly.

I know we only knew each other for about 2 days, but I feel a strong connection with her.

"M-me?" I stuttered.

"Yes, I adore you, every little thing about you." She said, crawling towards me with a seductive look.

She was now between my legs and I  gulped as she stared at me through her hair. She slowly leaned in her face closer and I did the exact same.

"I feel the same way." I whispered before she pressed her soft pink lips against mine.

It was like electricity running through my body. Our lips slowly moved in sync and I felt my heart race so fast.

She tastes like vanilla.

I caressed her cheek with my hand as she ran her fingers through my hair. We both pulled away and I softly touched my trembling lips.

"My first kiss." We said unison. I shot my head up to her in shock.

"That was your first kiss?" I asked a bit surprised.

"Yes Connor, I'm a virgin too." She said.

"Me too." I said.

"I know, I can smell it." She said.

"W-well, there's something else I would like to ask." I said hesitantly.

"Yes, what is it?" She asked.

"I wanted to know.... if you would like to..... go on a d-date with me." I said shyly.

She gave me a puzzled look and I quickly remembered that I have to teach her.

"A date is when you go somewhere with a person you like and spend time alone with them." I explained.

"I would love to go on a date with you." She answered.

I grinned at her response and without thinking, I kissed her. I can tell she was bit surprised, but kissed back. She bit my lip, which caused me to yell lowly and her warm tongue slid into my mouth. We fought for dominance and surprisingly, I won. Our tongues swirled in different directions against each other.

I felt my little friend springing into action. Boldly, I pulled her onto my lap, not breaking the kiss. I groaned in pleasure as she grinded against my erection and I placed my hands on her hips. Howley pulled away from the kiss and I looked at her in curiosity.

Did I do something wrong? Did I hurt her?
