Her Heart

I let my head rest on his chest and I closed my eyes, I never wanted this moment to end. But it did, and rudely to boot. His girlfriend came over to us on the field and screamed at me,
"WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU'RE DOING?! WE'RE ABOUT TO LOSE THE GAME!!" little miss screech here was the captain of the local mixed under 18's touch team, I've never been overly sporty but I play touch anyway, I've been majorly crushing on the team captains boyfriend since I joined the team, mainly because he's the only person on the team who doesn't think I suck at literally everything, plus he's hot and cute at the same time. But his girlfriend is a demon, she has this thing about screaming at me. 

After the game, we all head off the field and I manage to trip over the edge of the concrete near the stands, I hear the rest of the team laugh at me and walk away, when I look up I see Drew holding his hand out to help me up, I take his hand and stand up, as soon as I put weight on my left leg I crumple to the ground again. Drew helps me over to one of the chairs in the stands and checks my leg, I've somehow sprained my ankle so Drew helps me up and helps me walk to my car, I sit down in the drivers seat of my car and Drew makes me get up and sit in the front passengers seat, then he gets in the drivers seat. 

Drew drives me home and as I get out of the car my little brother runs out to me.
"Evie, how was your game? Mum wouldn't let me come and watch..." I look at my little brother and smile,
"thanks Eli, the game went well, do you know where Mum is?" Elijah looked around and noticed Drew,
"she's out the back, I'll go get her" 
"thanks Eli" Drew walks around from the driver's side of the car and helps me the rest of the way out of the car,
"your brother seems energetic" Drew mentions, 
"energetic is an understatement" I laugh and start limping over to the front door, I notice my mother speed walking towards the door.

My mother reaches the door before me and a massive smile decorates her face,
"Evelyn, won't you introduce me?" I cringe inwardly, my mother is a bit of a big personality,
"Drew, this is my mother, Mum this is Drew, he drove me home from touch" Drew smiles politely and offers his hand to shake my mothers hand, my mother almost envelops Drew in a hug as she shakes his hand,
"uhh yeah, Evelyn hurt her ankle after the game and I just wanted to make sure that she got home ok..." Drew seems to blush a little,
"Thank you so much Drew for helping Evie, do you need a lift back to the touch fields to get your car?" My mother glances at me annoyed for a moment before adopting her bubbly facade again.
"um, yes please, if that's ok?"

Half an hour later my mother returns from driving Drew back to get his car, Elijah had helped me into my room in the attic of our two story house. I hear my mother storming up the stairs to my room and I sit up on the end of my bed,
"EVELYN! HOW COULD YOU LET YOURSELF GET HURT AGAIN... I THOUGHT I TOLD YOU NOT TO LET IT HAPPEN AGAIN, YOU COULD'VE KILLED THAT BOY TODAY!!" I look at my mother and wait for her to stop screaming,
"yes mother, I know, I didn't mean to get hurt..." I shrink back a little bit
my mother turns away from me and walks towards my door, she stops at the door and looks back at me, "you are not to go back to those fields ever again... am I understood, if I find out that you have been back, you will not see the moon for months"
"yes mother..." I feel myself growing angry but keep my voice passive, my mother walks out of my room and I get up from my bed and walk around my room, I look out my window and notice the moon is starting to come up. 

My family has a secret, its not something we talk about and that's how we've stayed hidden. We're werewolves, we transform into wolves under a full moon, I'm the only female in our family who can turn whenever I want to. I have a habit of turning if I get hurt in any way. I draw strength from the moon, if I can't bathe in moonlight every night, I grow weak and get sick, my little brother Elijah hasn't had his first turning yet but he is getting close to it, he is supposed to have his first turning tonight and the entire family is coming to celebrate.
