"we won the season!" sam exclaimed. the crowd was cheering, the guys playing were over the moon but i just sat there.

i was just looking at him as he smiled with his friends. "i'm proud." i smiled. sam wrapped his arm around my shoulder and laughed.

"well we better get ready for the pool party, don't you think?" he suggested.

i laughed, "are we sure that's a good idea?"

sam nodded, "we need to help ethan with his girl and get the other two one."

i walked inside the pack house and ran straight into my room to take my contacts out as they were starting to burn, "willow, why won't they turn back to normal?" i asked as i stared into my eyes in the mirror.

still red.

"i don't know, alison. just keep wearing the contacts and relax, i'll fix this." she assured me but i wasn't convinced.

i walked to my closet and grabbed the first swim suit i found, a black bikini. i brushed my hair and even put makeup on, i looked naturally beautiful but it wasn't natural; "i might put on a jacket to hide this shit." i told myself.

i grabbed a camouflage denim jacket and put on a pair of shorts along with trainers, of course.

"hey, alison." brad said as he lent on my doorframe.

i smiled and gave him a hug, "i'm really sorry about your eye, brad." when we fought i scratched his eye pretty badly and it wasn't healing.

he shrugged, "it doesn't hurt, at least i can still open it. you haven't got contacts in by the way."

"oh, right. neither have you." i told him as i put a pair in.

"i'm not going out. how's grayson?" he asked.

i grabbed my phone and put it in my pocket, "no idea. i'll see you later, i'm going to a party."

he smiled, "just be safe alison, make sure charlie doesn't do anything stupid either."

—————

sam, chris, charlie and i stood outside waiting for the twins, chris slowly losing his temper. "guys let just go inside, they might not even turn up because there's a load of people." he told us.

i sighed, "fine. i'm going straight to the pool, it's too fucking hot out here." sam laughed and followed me inside.

"give me the fucking jacket and shorts, show of your amazing figure sis." sam smiled.

i laughed, "and what? embarrass myself?"

"show how sexy you really are! make grayson jealous when he gets here and he will be so protective over you!" he explained. i rolled my eyes and did what he said, i gave him my stuff and walked into the water.

i looked around and saw charlie talking to some girl and sam charting up some guy. good for them.

i on the other hand, was alone standing in the water. "you look lonely." chris told me as he came up next to me, with a beer bottle in hand.

"do i really now?" i smirked.

"a beautiful alpha like yourself, miss, shouldn't be alone." he winked and kissed my hand.

i rolled my eyes at him, "you know you can't call me that out here."

he laughed, "obviously." i sat on the pool side and he still stood there; "how about i join you guys?" he asked.

"what?" i asked shocked.

"i join you in the pack." he repeated in a whisper.

i smiled, "you really felt the need to ask that?"

he looked behind me and his eyes widen, "i'll talk later, i'm gonna bounce for now." i turned around and saw the dolan twins.

it was like a scene from a movie where the hot guys enter and everyone watches them. everyone stared at their muscles and admired them, feeling weak.

i pulled my hair to one side of my shoulder and was showing off his claim, just to make him smile or something - impress him even! grayson looked over in my direction and saw me gazing at him.

immediately making his way over to me as ethan walked over to a girl, "so can we actually talk now?" he asked as he sat down.

"i don't know. can we?" i responded and looked down.

he lifted up my chin so i would look up at him, "if it's an excuse for me to stay then yes."

"are you gonna lie? walk all over me?" i asked.

he shook his head and held my hand, "of course not."

"was she lying?" i said, firmly.

he sighed, "not exactly, but this was right after i just met you."

i wanted to cry. it didn't matter if he'd only just met me, he still said it, "i'm showing this thing off because i'm proud of it, gray, not because i have to. but the fact that she wasn't lying just makes me not trust you."

"please, alison. that's definitely not my opinion on you now, you're a beautiful, strong woman; everything i want. what i said, was wrong and if i knew we would be here now and i'd feel like this, i would've never had said it." he assured me.

i didn't completely believe him but i didn't want to argue with him anymore, "alright, gray. just forget it ever happened." i smiled weakly. he smiled back and kissed me, i wanted him all the time but at that moment i wasn't so sure.

chris's pov

they always got what they wanted. he always got what he wanted. "they're cute together, aren't they chris?" sam said.

my eyes were stuck on alison, the disappointment and sadness in her eyes before he kissed her, "it won't last, sam. he's stuck this age forever, she's gonna grow old." i told him and walked back inside to grab a drink.

"what if he becomes what she is?" he asked, curiously.

"it's impossible. their fates already been decided, they can't change who or what they are. grayson is meant to fall for an angel or vampire, alison is meant to fall for a werewolf, witch, anything other than him." i informed him.

he sighed, "that's a bit unfair."

i nodded, "it's how it is."

"you miss her, don't you?" sam questioned.

i chuckled, "she's why i came back and why i'm here but if she loves him then i have to accept it. i can't force her to love me."

"i just wish i never left her in the first place."
