I woke, hissing at the bright fluorescent lights, the light searing into my retinas. "How are you feeling?" I hear the voice of the school nurse. I cover my eyes with my hands, the bright light causing a headache to begin to pound behind my eyes.

"Like actual crap," I muttered.

"I figured you might have had a mild concussion, I heard you had a pretty nasty fall earlier in the cafeteria." She explained I hear her shuffling around. "Here, kid." She said, prompting me to open my fingers and look at her. She's holding out a glass of water and a few pills in her hand. I grab them from her, squinting because of the light in the room. "This should take care of your pain until you heal from the fall."

"Thank you," I said before putting the pills in my mouth. I swallowed them down and took a sip of water to make sure they went down.

"I recommend you probably take off school tomorrow and have your parents or someone come pick you up today." She recommended. Yeah, parents... I love them and all, but they're always away with pack business, attending council meetings and stuff. I hardly ever see them, it's not their fault either, it's what keeps a roof over my head and food in my stomach. "Schools about to end as well, if you want I can call your parents to come and get you." She suggests. I sat up on the edge of the bed and shook my head.

"I'll figure it out, thank you though. Am I free to leave?" I asked, not wanting to be in the halls after school lets out due to the noise. If it was just the two of us and I was already slightly irritated, I could only imagine the sound of hundreds of students around.

"I suppose," I stand up, and I look around the room for my bag, but it's nowhere in sight.

"Um," I hesitantly said. "Where's my bookbag?" I asked the nurse.

"Oh, our young Alpha and your friends took it with them, I think one of the little Omega's said they knew your locker code." She explained. Alexandre? Why was he here? The last thing I could remember was my friends holding onto me before I started drowning in darkness.

"Thank you," I replied before heading out of the nurse's office. I looked at one of the digital clocks on the wall, indicating that there was still 15 minutes left until school got out. I made my way down the halls, heading toward my locker. I dialed my code and opened it to find my backpack. My keys were hanging on the hook as well. My wallet was sitting on top of my Pack history book, well there's one thing I was worried about this morning...

I shut the locker door softly, trying to avoid any loud sounds at the moment. I glanced up at the clock, having 7 minutes until the final bell rings, and the halls would flood with wolves. I just need to make it outside and find Raven's car. That's all I need to do. I groggily stumble my way out of the school, ready to go home and just go to sleep. I approached Raven's beat-up sedan. He was so proud of his hunk of junk, gave it its own name and everything. I lean up against "Ralph," waiting for the last few minutes of school to blow by, slowly creeping forward. Soon people start to pour from the doors of the school. I saw a big fluff ball of red hair skipping her way toward the car, followed by a gloom and doom Raven.

"How are you feeling?" Ella asked as she approached the car. "You knocked right out." She stated.

"Mild concussion." I closed my eyes, the noise outside starting to build up, my irritation doing the same. "Raven, can you please take me home?" I plead not wanting to be outside any longer.

"After that nasty fall, hell yeah." He explained. "Did you know you were bleeding from the mouth and stuff? I swear the Alpha almost doubled back and whooped Jasper's ass. I mean, he would deserve it in the end but still."
