My Alpha Mate

Chapter 4

Shaking.

My body rocked back and forth. I had no clue who shaking me because my eyes where still closed and I did not intend on finding out who is trying to wake me up from my beautiful slumber.

"Harper wake up, there's someone at the door. He's looking for you." my grandmother said. Well now I know who was waking me up but a visitor?

Who would want to see me? and he? who's he? who the heck is he?

"But I'm sleeping." I mumbled barring my head into my pillow.

"He's a cutie tho." I heard her say shaking me even more.

"Then why does he want to see me?" I asked not really wanting an answer.

"I don't know... you'll have to figure that out for yourself." I could feel the bed shift under me signaling that she left.

Ugh. I really should get up.

I rolled around in my bed only to end up getting tangled in the blankets. I sat up with my hair in my face annoyed because it's so hard getting out of the damn bed.

Finally I got out of the comfy,warm mess. I quickly got dressed into blue jeans and a pink floral T-shirt.

I quickly pulled my long brown hair to the left side of my head and put it into a messy braid.

I stepped in front of the mirror rushing around thinking I was okay without make up but ended up putting on mascara and lip gloss.

I don't like putting on a lot of make up because then it feels like your wearing a huge mask.

I walked out of my bedroom and down the stairs.

"Grandma?" I called out.

"Hey."

I turned around and he was there. Brad. Brad was here.

"Uhh.. hey," Fucking shit. "How do you know where I live?" I asked kind of getting a little creeped out. Did he follow me home?

"I was in the woods when I saw your grandmother picking berries."

That makes sense. My grandmother is quite the cook and she makes all these different foods with berries and fruits.

"Okay... well can I help you?"

No freaking way Harper. Can I help you? I know we are soul mates and I just rejected you but is there something you need? I hate myself.

"I was wondering if you wanted to go out on a date?" He asked with his gorgeous smile.

.....whoah

"No?" I said at the same time as someone said yes behind me.

"She means to say she would love to go." My lovely sister grace said.

"Grace." I said but we both know I was saying 'walk away now because this has nothing to do with you.'

"Harper." she said back but really saying 'go out with him, I know he's your mate, and your being rude.'

I rolled my eyes at her and turned around to face Brad who looks quite amused.

I faked laughed and smiled. "What I mean to say is I would love to go on a date... mate."

He smiled widely and nodded behind him signaling for me to follow and I did as we walked outside to his car.

"Have fun!" Grace yelled from behind me.

Yea.. I'll have a ton of fun. note the sarcasm.

"Where are we going?" I asked as soon as we drove off.

"We have choices. Mc Donald's, the movies, the park, or Sky Zone."

Mc Donald's?... nah.

Movies.... maybe.

The park... nah.

Sky zone... what's Sky Zone?

"What's Sky Zone?" I asked.

He looked at me like I grew two heads but moved his eyes to the road but back to me again.

"You don't know what Sky Zone is?"

I shook my head.

"My god.. Sky Zone is a room filled with trampolines. The floors a trampoline, the walls are trampolines, the ceiling is a trampoline, they play basketball, dodgeball, and a whole bunch of other stuff on trampolines." he said looking fascinated.

"So.. trampoline land?" I said flatly.

"You make it sound so lame!" He said laughing a little.

I smiled a little at the sound of his laugh. It was like music that could calm a wild lion. It was great. He looked so calm and happy and like a Hollister model when he smiled or laughed.

"Like what you see?" he said smirking.

Shit.. I was starring. I quickly turned my head towards the window.

"What? no." I said maybe a little to quickly. My face was a deep red on my cheeks.

He laughed and shook his head, showing his should be award winning smile.

"Let's go to the movies." I said trying to change the subject.

He nodded and slid his hand into mine.

I'm screaming inside. SOS SOS

I felt tingles in my hand and I think my heart fluttered out of my chest. I wanted to jump on his lap and kiss him, I wanted to cuddle and be alone with him. My wolf howled inside of me. For the first time in a long time I smiled because I was happy, I felt loved, I didn't feel alone. I was grinning like an idiot. I snook a glance at him and he was too. He felt the sparks too.

I wanted to pull away, worried of what might come out of this but you know.. I think I just might let my wolf have this one moment.
