The Alpha's Mate

Isabella

First period was interesting.
Not Mr. Johanes, no that man is more boring than watching golf, the boy a couple rows behind me wouldn't stop staring at me the entire class. I could feel the eyes of multiple girls boring into me too but I could distinguish his, it was so weird.
I wanted to go over to him and ask him what his deal was but Maddie dragged me out of class before I could.
"Oh my gosh, oh my gosh, oh my gosh" she kept on mumbling once we stopped at our lockers
"What?" I asked
"Nate. Davis." she said, as if I knew who that was
"Who?" I asked dumbfounded
"The hottest, baddest, and sexiest guy in school!" she said rather loudly gathering a few stares
"Ok...and what about him?" I had a feeling I knew what it was but I still wasn't sure.
"He was staring at you like a cartoon dog at a steak!" She said matter of factly
"Pffft no he wasn't" I said
"Ummm yeah he was! Actually like every boy has been staring at you like that! You're gorgeous!" She said
"Aww thank you, you're gorgeous too" I said
I used to be bullied because I was more chubby in elementary school and it got even worse in middle school. I would get beat up, yelled at, made fun of etc. Once I got to high school I was over it so I started to work out. After about a year I got to where I wanted to be, but still people bullied me. It was bearable until last year...
So even though now I'm happy with my looks I still always have that voice in the back of my head hating on me, and what Maddie just said really means a lot.
As Maddie was briefing me on what the teachers I had were like I got pushed into a locker.
"Listen here skank, stay away from Nate, he's mine"
I looked down to see the one and only, Amanda Anderson.
"Last time I checked you can't own a human, airhead" I sassed, earning a few 'oooh's and gasps from the crowd that had gradually formed around us.
Her eyes flashed with fury as she responded
"Little whores like you need to be put in their place" she said as her fist went back preparing for a punch.
Just as her fist was about to hit my face a hand caught it.
"You really don't wanna do that" A deep voice said from next to me.
I turned my head to see the guy from last period, Nate looking at Amanda with pure anger in his eyes.. even gold rims..?
Her smirk immediately fell as she saw him and her fist instantly went back.
"I'm sorry Nate." She said as she bowed her head down
"Oh I know" he growled with a glint of humor in his eyes.
She scurried away and the two minions that I didn't even see behind her followed suit.
"GO!" He screamed to the crowd, even making me flinch.
Once the crowd dispersed I turned to him.
"So you're the famous Nate I keep hearing about" I said
"In the flesh" he said pointing to himself
I let a laugh escape and he chuckled.
"Hey, thanks for that, I really don't know what her deal was"
"No problem, she's a bitch and she's gonna learn her lesson" he said with a slight anger in his voice.
"Okaaaaay...well I better be off to class" I told him
As I walked off he waved and I waved back.
~~~~~~~~~~
The rest of the day was pretty boring until last period, the dreaded class, gym.
I was expecting today to be a day of getting to know the rules of the gym and such but noooo.
We were doing dodgeball.
My team definitely had the lower hand since we had all the scrawny kids and the other kid had all the tough guys and girls but hey, don't judge a book by its cover!
"Ok you all know the rules correct?" My gym teacher, Mrs. Rosmore asked.
Her response was a few mumbles and grunts
"Ok" she said as she dumped the balls all around the gym.
The excruciating sound of her whistle filled the air as kids ran to get the balls.
I pushed as many as I could as far away in my side as possible but it was useless since literally half the kids on my team were hit in the first few seconds.
Come on guys don't be a stereotype
I thought to myself.
I saw Amanda on the edge of her side of the gym and I knew exactly what she was planning.
Not today sister
She whipped her ball at me with an inhuman speed, but luckily I was able to catch it. I saw the mischievous look in her eyes fade away and just as she was walking off the court I whipped it at her getting a shot in her leg
"Booyah!!" I said
I know, I know, she was already out Isabella, you didn't need to hit her!
Well she didn't need to push me earlier but she still did, didn't she?
In all the Amanda chaos I didn't realize that my entire team got hit, and there were still 5 kids on the other team.
Ohh god
I quickly grabbed a ball next to me and whipped it at one of the girls on the other team, hitting her and getting her out.
1
I then grabbed another ball and aimed at the feet of one guy, also hitting him
2
And then two people threw balls at me, which I caught with both hands
Boom! Double whammy!
Then there was one last guy, I think I saw him with Nate earlier.
We were glaring at each other, both with balls in our hands. I was thinking of a way out of this when I found the perfect plan.
I faked a throw at his feet, which caused him to stumble a bit trying to get out of the way, and once he was in the perfect position, I struck, hitting him right in the stomach.
BOOM! And the crowd goes wild!
A bunch of kids clapped and cheered as he walked off the court and I met up with him in front of the bleachers.
"You're not so bad for a girl" he said
"I could eat a bowl of alphabet soul and still shit out a smarter statement than that." I responded with a smirk
"Touché"
We shook hands and went our separate ways as the bell rang.
Overall, today was..interesting.
