Not really gone

Chapter 3

Sorry this took so long had a little writers block, but I really hope you all enjoy!!

I ran out of the bathroom and saw him still standing there by my locker. Embarrassed by my brother I walked over to him. When I arrived he had a brow lifted and asked trying not to be noisy. "What was that about." I thought about it for a minute and came to the conclusion that I could trust him. " after our parents died he dug himself a big whole and he just keeps digging it deeper. It's so hard to watch, it kills me to see him this way." I looked down at my feet thinking of our family. A tear escaped my eye trickled down my cheek and off my chin. That was quickly followed by another, in which Gunnar quickly wiped away leaving his hand on my cheek. The feeling of his smooth skin sending another shock through my body. That feeling was emphasized as he pulled me by the waist into him for support. I really started to wander why he wanted me. Then I started to think about how I looked with my dress making my legs look tan and slender. With my mid torso blond hair in perfect lose curls that flowed down my back and the sides of my chest. Along with my bright green eyes that had some blue, orange, and yellow in them. I was pulled back to reality when Gunnar pulled me away to look at my full pink lips that I got from my mom. His intense stare sending shivers through me. Just the thought of kissing him making me weak. Right before he leaned in to kiss me we were interrupted when Eric came up to us with a angered look on his face. Gunnar quickly stood in front of me in a defensive position obviously angry from the interruption. Hiding behind Eric I saw Max, now I understand what was going on. When they got to us Eric looked up at Gunnar and that's when I noticed how tall Gunnar really was, he is so adorable with his not as shaggy as Eric's, but shaggy blond hair and his eyes you just fall in love with. Eric had a look of rage on his face as he said," what the hell are you doing punching Max and hanging out with Elizabeth!!" In my head I was thinking about how being around Gunnar made Eric jealous, that brought a smile to my face. Eric continued " Seriously Elizabeth you are acting like a whore hanging out with him, letting him hold you, right after we just broke up. An...." He was about to continue but Gunnar cut him off, "what is she your property or something, if you guys are done,then your done.......DEAL..WITH..IT." he really emphasized on the last part taking Eric aback, because nobody had ever talked to him like that. Instead of leaving Eric only got madder, he tried to get in Gunnar's face but just like Max he put him in place. Right before Gunnar started to throw pinches at Eric I yelled, "STOP" All three of them looked at me, but the only expression that softened was Gunnar's. I continued, "Why do you guys always turn to fighting?" nobody answered me so I looked down at my feet hoping the answer to this shit would be there. Finally once I knew what to say I began again, "Listen Eric I'm sorry about what Gunnar did to Max but you got to think about how he was acting. And also I don't know if this is going through the other ear or what, but I want you to hear it now WE ARE DONE, I'm allowed to move on, so I suggest you do it too." A saddened look crossed his face. I couldn't help but feel bad for him, after all he never did anything to hurt me. Right after that thought, I looked up to see Eric throwing a punch at Gunnar. He easily dogged it. All the sudden I felt hair on my neck growing! I could feel my fingers stretching out. I was taken over with rage at the sight of someone trying to hurt Gunnar. Max looked at me with horror, like he was seeing a ghost! I looked down to see long finger nails and hair sprouting out. I couldn't even think, but I got to the bathroom just in time to see what was happening to me. What exactly was happening to me? In my reflection I saw my eyes turn black and my teeth extend. My face grew out wards and I closed my eyes as if it was a horrible dream I could just wake up from. That didn't happen, I opened my eyes to see a huge wolf where my reflection just was. Aside from the fact that I was a wolf! I looked beautiful, with long white fur and bright yellow eyes. I was so tall thought what kind of wolf was I, I was taller than Gunnar. Right then I heard a voice in my head again, but this time I could hear it perfectly. It's ok Elizabeth don't freak out. I need you to just concentrate, picture a really happy moment. I closed my eyes and the first thing that popped into my head was when I met Gunnar. I opened my eyes again to see my old human reflection. I saw my dress and boots on the floor and quickly slipped them on. I heard the voice again a sound of relief in her voice. well I'm glad that's over. we could of been cough! I noticed how she said we and thought back to her. Wait what do you mean we! Her voice shifted. We can talk about it later at home, where you don't look crazy talking to yourself . I remembered that I had left the boys staring at me and, immediately felt like I had a truck on chains tied to me as I walked out of the bathroom. They were all still there when I got back, Eric and Max looked terrified but Gunnar looked at me like i was just your every day school girl. Except by the looks of it for what just happened I'm not so normal after all. I smiled and politely said, " is everything ok, did you guys work it out?" I think my question just freaked Eric and Max out even more. Giving me a weird look Eric replied with, " I don't know who should be asking who if their ok!" he sounded a little hesitant afraid of what my answer might be. It only took me a split second to come up with a answer that I hope would work on them. "yah I'm fine just girl problems!" I was proud of myself for how normal I sounded. The two of them looked a little awkward, with the subject I had just brought up. Gunnar still standing next to me had a smirk on his face, as he put his hand on my back for support. Even through my cloths I could feel his warmth sending a smile to my face. I didn't even noticed what Eric said before him and Max walked away. I turned and saw Kristen and Hope looking at us with an intense stare. Once they noticed I was looking back at them they quickly turned to pretend like they've been talking. It brought an even bigger smile to my face then I already had.
