My Mate's secrets (#Wattys2015)

Chapter 3

Roxxie's POV

As soon as I stepped into school, I knew I was going to hate it like every other school day. You expect our werewolf school to have a fun time in the last week but no, Monday is still a Monday and the teachers are still the same. At least Em is in all the same classes as me. She is the smart one and I'm like the bodyguard for both of us. Despite all my comments Em still doesn't think she's sexy. Well I can see by all the boys we pass on the corridor that we are the highlight of their day.

I'm wearing my thick, black leather boots with Guess t-shirt and my short pencil skirt that Em thinks is a belt. I don't care because it's my of dress. All the teachers complain but they never do anything. I wear my dark red lipstick on my lips with blush across my cheeks. All Em wears is shiny lip gloss and that's all. I try make her wear more make up but she doesn't want to. We made a deal that I can do her make up for parties only but those happen only one a term.

"What's our lessons for today?" I ask Em.

No matter what I do I still can't remember it. What do you expect? It's school.

Em sighed and said, "Maths, English, Break, Gym, History, Break then Art".
"Maths first again!" I complained.

I always say Maths is a waste of time considering I'm not going to use it only when I cook but those measuring thingys are my helpers so I don't need it. Boy, do I love to cook.

"Yes and we got Miss Hailstorm again" Em replied.

Miss Hailstorm is any wolves nightmare. Her skin is so pale like a vampires and believe me vampires are terribly ugly. Her dark brown eyes always looks for victims to pick on as she looks over her tiny glasses that is found almost falling off the tip of her pointy nose. Her voice sounds like a million claws going down a chalkboard all at once. The worse of all she hates Em and me. Em not that much because she does well in school but me. I'm sure she's waiting to sign my death certificate.

"Yip and we are going to die. I'm sure of it" I said.
"Yes welcome to hell" Em said as we entered her classroom.

We walked down the rows of desks towards the back corner of the class where we sit. Its right behind Sarah and Amelia the top students in the school. They always help us when we don't understand. They are genuine math addicts. Last year I heard they read their entire maths textbooks for fun. For fun! I'm not joking.

Sarah is this nerdy girl with all the accessories. You know the braces and huge nerdy glasses. Those kind of stuff. She has beautiful black hair but she always puts it in a bun to get that 'sophisticated look'. Her words not mine. She has these pretty blue-green eyes. She's tall with not all the curves like Em and me have. Her mate is this hot, sexy book addict. Yeah I know hot and sexy do not go with book addict but you've never seen him but anyway they are a cute couple of mates.

Amelia is also tall but with a shoulder length brown hair with dark midnight blue eyes. She is very skinny but not sporty. Both of them aren't but if there's danger or a new science book somewhere, they run like crazy. Depending on the level of danger or size and popularity (nerd popularity) of the book. She is still currently mate less like us but she's always looking and when I mean looking. It is like searching every book store, library, science or math expo etc. Yeah it sounds like a heck load of creeps but that's how desperate she is.

When we sat down, I'm next to the window to stare out of when Miss Hailstorm isn't looking and when I'm dying of boredom and Em next to me so she can see the board, Sarah and Amelia turned around and said hi.

"Hi guys! Did you have a good weekend?" Em asked.
"Wonderful! We went to another pack, you know Paw stone pack don't you? Yeah so anyways we did this Maths competition there and won first place" Sarah said.
"Wow!" I said sounding excited.

I always hate these conversations because I do not understand what the heck they are saying. At least Em does. A bit.

"Yeah it was amazing! So how was your early breakfast? I'm sure the guys joined for waffles again" Amelia said.

I guess your wondering how they know this. Its because - a) we got here early (5 minutes before the lesson starts) and b) we are always late when the boys don't wake us up. They asked on the first week of school why we did this often so we told them. Now they always know.

"Wonderful but also terrible. I wonder how the Luna deals with those boys when they talk with their mouths full of syrupy waffles" Em replied.
"But you should of seen them when Em told them to wash the dishes" I said laughing. Em started giggling her signature giggles and they both started laughing.

"I'm sure it was funny" Sarah said.
"Yip" I said.

Before we could reply, Miss Hailstorm came in shouting for everyone to 'shut their mouths and sit on their f-ing chairs'. That's what she said literary. That was just a taste of her madness. There is more.

*********

When break finally came, we were celebrating but not for long. The three female dogs came walking towards us and I knew we are going to have fun.

"Hey losers. We just want to remind you that this is our school and our servants with our own boys which are out of bounds to you losers still so I want you to save the trouble and just go home" Julia said.
"Oh Julia, Julia. Did your daddy never tell you that a girl never gives up until she's dying?" I asked her in my sweet get-away-from-me-stupid voice.
"Listen, losers! Shut up before I send you to that torture hole and beat you up myself" Julia said with Shelia and Delia snickering behind her.

'That torture hole... No don't think of it. Delete memory. Delete memory!' I thought.

Em started tearing up but refused to let that dam fall in front of these mean girls so they can win. I noticed everyone around us where dead quiet when she said that. They knew. Everyone knew our past. Everyone knew that torture hole.

I started chanting "don't think of it" in my head until one of the teachers, Miss Hailstorm (It had to be Miss Hailstorm), came over and shouted at them for saying that. I didn't listen to their misery. All I heard was me and Em's heavily breathing and my chanting.

******

Somewhere through that terrible day, I woke up on my bed shaking. I had tear strokes all over my face and my mouth was dry. When I tried getting out of my cocoon of blankets, I heard Mikey speak next to me.

"Your awake" he said.

I looked to the side of my room and saw his worried face.

"What happened?" I asked.
"You fainted when we got there" he replied.
"Where's Em? Is she ok?" I asked.
"Yeah she's downstairs reading a book. Don't worry Jayden, Kate and Ash are looking after her" he said.
"I...I..." I started but burst out crying. Mikey ran to my side hugging me.
"Shh. Don't worry your save now ok" he kept on saying.
