The Alpha's Queen

Chapter 6

-Chapter 6-

Black Forest is a really small town. Like really small.

Which means not many people reside here. And those that do, know each other very well. So obviously, a new comer is a big deal. Like, I get it, I'm new and none of them have ever seen me, ever. So I get the stares. I mean, it's okay and tolerable for a day or two. Even a week tops. But now, it's been three weeks. And the stares still haven't stopped. It's getting on my nerves. I am a very nice and polite person but, I also don't exactly have a high patience level and these people are about to find out exactly how low my patience can get. I don't really want to be responsible for wiping out an entire town. And I actually like this place. But if this keeps up, I really don't know what I'll do.

Right now it's Monday, exactly three weeks since I got here, and the last day of September. I'm sitting in History class, my third period of the day and everyone is staring at me. Literally, even the teacher, stared at me for the first few minutes of class. Then she snapped out of whatever daze she was in and started today's lesson. The students, however, don't seem to get the memo. Even though it was probably straining their necks to turn their heads and look at me, since I was sitting at the far left corner, they still looked at me as if I was a the greatest masterpiece of the best artist out there.

So, as soon as the teacher turned her back towards us to scribble something on the board, I raised both of my hands and flipped them off. That seemed to do the trick as everyone snapped their heads towards the board. The teacher too was happy as she saw everyone finally paying attention to her lesson.

I wonder what kept them busy.

I sighed heavily as I started taking notes.

"Psst...Hey." The girl on my right nudged me.

"What?" I said as I turned my head dramatically in her direction.

"I'm Kayla." She grinned, shoving her hand in my direction.

"Hey Kayla," I smiled at her, shaking her hand. "Did you need something?"

I looked at her weirdly as she was still grinning at me and still didn't let go of her hand. I snatched my hand from her grasp, wiping it on the front of my jeans. That seemed to snap her out of whatever daze she was in.

She blinked twice before nodding her head," Yes, actually. I did. I have to tell you something."

"Well, do go on," I gestured with my hand for her to continue.

"My mom wanted me to tell you that you and Arabelle are invited for dinner at our place tonight." She said smiling once again. At least she didn't look as creepy as the others when she smiled that way.

"Oh, that's nice. But should you not tell Arabelle as well?" I asked raising a brow.

"Yeah, my mom already told her. She wanted me to tell you as well. I really don't know why." She replied shrugging.

"Okay." I shrugged, "But I can't promise anything. I really don't like small dinners."

"Oh, but you have to come." She said, "It's actually a formal dinner, so we get to dress up and stuff."

"I'll think about it." I sighed smiling at her as I got up just as the bell rung, signalling the end of the period.

"So, would you like to join us for lunch after?" Kayla asked falling into step beside me as I walked out of the classroom.

"Lunch?" I asked raising an eyebrow, "I usually sit with Suzan. Besides, I don't even know you or your friends so..."

"You hang with Suzie?" She asked, still walking beside me.
