| Max's POV. |
I woke with a smile on my face. Wren. I pull my hand through my messy hair, and sit up from my bed. The smell of breakfast hit me, and I scurried to take a nice shower. I remind myself from yesterday, while washing my hair.
I never though me, of all people, would be so riled up from just one girl... Wow...
I never went out with anyone other than Savannah. I had my flings here and there; nothing more, nothing less...
I yawn, getting a mouthful of the shower's water. I choke, and spit it out, mumbling incoherent profanities. I scratch the nape of my neck, and wrap a clean towel around my waist.
I walk back into my room, and pick something to wear at school...
I put on a red and black hoodie, and jeans.
I shuffle down the stairs, and into the kitchen, where the breakfast smell only got better...
There stood Jeremiah by the fridge, and Chelsea eating at the island while texting.
"Good morning, Jeremiah, Chelsea.." I say, sitting one seat away from Chelsea. Like she always is, she doesn't acknowledge me, so I just brush it off. Jeremiah seems to be in his own little deranged whole, as he puts a plate in front of me. "Good morning, Max.." He says, and continues to cook...
I don't mind eating in silence... I mean, I have nothing to say, anyway...
I sighed, and began to eat my breakfast.
"Would stop eating like a hog?" Chelsea's voice stopped me from finishing, as I look her way. "It's not like you can't go into the dining room.." I say, eating my last pancake.
I hear Chelsea sneer, as she puts her empty plate into the dishwasher. She leaves alone in the kitchen, and went back upstairs..
When I finish, I put up my plate, and grab my car keys..
I go out to my car, and get in. My hair still looks a little rough, but that didn't matter to me, the girls still liked it...
I just wanted Wren to like it - to like me. I was thinking too much about this, right? No, she's my mate, and will be the next Luna of DarkMoon... No denying the facts...
I start up the car, and leave the house behind me.
~•~•~•~
When I get to school, I remember about Savannah and Collin's little interaction together...
I groaned, and get out of the car. I walk towards the school.. It's not helping that Wren's scent is delightfully burning through my nostrils.
I try to let the smell pass, but it's not leaving. I see Ash and Cassidy near the benches in front of the school.
I hear towards them, racking the scent on a shelf in my head.
"Hey, Max.." Cassidy says, placing her hand on Ash's shoulder. She sends me a look, "So...how was your date with the Luna?" She asked, smirking up at me.
"It was good," I shrug, trying to go mad, thinking of Wren in her short-shorts...
Ash sees my expression, and holds back a laugh. "Well, I better get to class," Cassidy gives Ash a peck on the cheek before leaving his side, heading into the building..
"Have you seen her?" I asked, pointing behind me, towards the school. "Nope. Not yet.." Ash says, looking off in the distance.
"Alright, well, I'll see you next period.." I say, as we face each other and fist pump. Ash stalks off somewhere, doing what he does. I turn around, and see Collin and Savannah.
