Wesley Academy

5. The Pack ( Jamie )

At the bottom of the stairs I could see Sara with Michael. He had his arms around her waist and was whispering into her ear and she giggled. Aww I thought. They must be in love. Anne Marie was with Anthony and Caleb was with Alana. Wow, the must all be together. Then I saw Alex walk in and I could hear his thoughts. He absolutely loved her. Oh my gosh, I can't believe I actually liked him. I Kaylee is in love with him too. Her thoughts of love blared through my head. I am such a dolt.

" Kaylee, why don't you go hang with Alex. I'll just go back upstairs and take a shower for bed and everything." She looked at me surprised. " I know you like him. It's cool. Go have fun." She blushed.

" Thanks Ally."

I watched her walk down to him and he laughed as he pulled her into a hug. They all walked into the living room without even noticing me. I didn't think I was that invisible. Geesh. Then Alana and Caleb started making out, and I ran up the stairs. It was just a matter of time before they were all making out. So much for watching a movie later.

I found Kaylee's room and went in to grab my stuff. Then I started looking for the bathroom. She had four closets, a balcony, and a linen closet but no bathroom.

I walked into the hall and started opening doors. I found a library and a storage room, there were also six more bedrooms, but no bathroom. There were two more doors in this hallway and if it wasn't one of them I was going to have to go ask Kaylee where it was, and I didn't want to interupt the love fest. So I crossed my fingers and did eeny meeny miney mo and ended up picking the one on the left. It was dark inside so I couldn't see anything. I reached for the wall and flicked a switch.

This was absolutely not the bathroom. Against the wall there was a huge King bed all in black. On that bed was a man, a devastatingly sexy man. He looked up confused and my heart stopped. I started walking toward him without another thought. I just had to touch him, just to make sure he was real. I reached out my hand to touch his face and he grabbed my wrist. I felt a delicious shock of electricity run down my arm. I looked at his face and he looked so confused I just wanted to cradle his head and tell him everything would be alright, but I didn't have a chance. At that moment he let go of my hand, cupped my face with his hands, and kissed me like the world was going to end.

It was the best kiss of my life. It seared my soul. I leaned into him, because I needed to get as close as possible to him. He must have thought the same thing to because he picked me up and sat me in his lap. He ran his tongue along my bottom lip and I parted them without even thinking about it. He rolled me onto my back, and broke the kiss. He stared at me and I was dazed. I saw his eyes dark with lust and all I could do was smile. I was happy he was as hungry for more as I was.

I looped my hands around his neck and ran my fingers through his hair. I shivered with the shocks it sent straight to my core. He leaned closer and I breathed deep. He smelled like the woods and Man with a capital M. I pulled him closer trying to capture his lips in another kiss but he pulled back and smiled at my desire.

I growled frustrated. Two can play that game. I licked my lips and sighed deeply letting my chest rise to his. His smile fell replaced with a look of pure lust. He growled and leaned down to nibble on my ear. Then he kissed along my neck. He licked my shoulder and I shuddered. He kissed along the neckline of my shirt, and all I could think was I needed to get it off.

All of a sudden he stopped and I cried out trying to pull him back but he shook his head no. I whimpered and he let go of me putting a finger to his lips. I nodded understanding even through the haze of desire. He walked to his door and laid his head against it.

I heard a door slam. He turned and walked back over watching me lay on his bed. I could see the desire in his gaze but he just sighed and sat down.

" What is it? Did I do something wrong." I was so worried he didn't like me. Why didn't he want to kiss me. I started to panic. What if he didn't like me?

" Calm down. I just... We can't do this. It's late and I don't even know your name."

All of a sudden reality hit hard. I just almost had sex with a guy and I didn't even know his name. I scrambled to get off the bed and looked at the floor. Oh God.

" I'm Ally, and I'm Sorry. I didn't know what I was doing. I just was going to take a shower. I need to leave." I grabbed my stuff and ran out the door without looking back. I saw Kaylee walking with Alex and they went into a bedroom I found earlier. Well, I guess she won't be in bed tonight. At least not in her bed.

I went into the only room in the hall I hadn't entered yet and wonder of wonders it was a bathroom. I hung my stuff on a hook and grabbed a towel of the rack and took a shower.

The whole time I was washing all I could think about was what I had just done. I don't even know who he is and I tried to have sex with him. God I'm so stupid. I finished berating myself, dried off, and got dressed. I peaked into the hall outside the bathroom door, but didn't see anyone. I made a run for Kaylee's room but someone stopped me.

I shrieked, and a hand came over my mouth. I elbowed the person holding me and heard a sharp intake of breath, but they didn't let go of me. I took at deep breath to try and scream again but then I smelled it. His heavenly scent. I relaxed. He wouldn't hurt me. I knew that.

He let go of my mouth and led me into his room. I knew I shouldn't follow, but I did anyways. I looked at him from behind and he was gorgeous. He had on a tight muscle shirt and loose pajama pants, but I could skill tell he had a perfect butt. He was ripped, and had scars all over his neck, shoulders, and arms. I could tell he knew I saw them by his sigh.

He led me to the bed before he spoke. He sat me down and I just stared up at him, studying his face for the first time. He had scars. Lots of them. Too many to count. Some where small and others looked so painful I couldn't believe my eyes. He let me look at him and I saw his eyes. They were deep forest green and looked full of pain... and love. His hair was a deep auburn color and looked so soft I wanted to run my fingers through it all over again. I reached up, but he stopped me.

" I'm Jamie. It's nice to meet you Ally, but why are you here. How did you find me."

I was taken aback. What did he mean how did I find him? He found me. At least that's how it felt. We had finally found each other. The person we had searched our entire lives for. " I was supposed to sleep over with Kaylee. I'm new here. What do you mean found you? I don't know you."

" Never mind I just...Never mind."

" No, what do you mean?"

" It just. How did you know I was your mate?"

" I don't understand." I looked at him. Now I'm confused. " Mate?"

He stared at me for a minute feeling me out. I listened to his thoughts, but all he was thinking was "MINE!"

I was nervous now, he wasn't making any sense. I didn't understand his thoughts. What did he mean Mine?" I'm sorry. I shouldn't have come tonight. I will just go back to my dorm. Sorry to intrude. I got up to leave, but he put his arms around my waist and all my thoughts left.

" Please don't. I'm sorry I scared you. Please just stay the night with me. I won't do anything."

I pushed him away confused again. I really genuinely wanted to stay. I...like him. I don't think he would hurt me but..." No. I've heard that before. It would be best if I left." I took a step but he grabbed my waist again.

" Please Ally."

I looked at his sad face and it caused me pain to see him unhappy so " Alright, I'll stay." He picked me up in his arms.

" Thank you so much Ally."

He spun me around and kissed me again.

" What did you say about..."

" Sorry, sorry. I was just excited."

I sighed and pulled back the covers on the edge of the bed. " It's midnight. I'm tired and I'm going to sleep. Goodnight Jaime." His named tasted like chocolate on my tongue.

I signed and climbed in. Before I had laid down he was already on the other side pulling me gently to him. I should've smacked his hand, but his touch felt so good I couldn't. I rested my head on his shoulder and listened to his heart beat. I was almost asleep when I heard a whisper run through my mind.

"I love you."
