it was the next morning, Wednesday actually and Eliza had woken up earlier than usual. she wanted to be in school early so as to avoid everyone, well when she says everyone she means Wyatt, she needed time to think about what she was gonna say. she promised his dad and she knew she needed to do this for him, he may not get why, but she had to do it.

Eliza arrived at school early, so early in fact that she was one of the first students in the school, she even saw teachers still arriving.

she found a quiet section in the library and got to work on some homework. The next thing she knows the the bells ringing and its time to go to class. 'Good', she thought to herself i've managed to avoid Wyatt so far, now she needed to make her way to class without being spotted.

success!! its Lunch and Eliza's been able to avoid Wyatt all morning. she's on her way to her locker when she spots Zed waiting at it.

'hey, where were you this morning?'

'urrm... i got to school early so i could finish some homework'

'oh!, well did you hear Wyatts back. His dad had a change of heart and has let him come back till the end of the semester and he can play in Friday's game'

Eliza tried to act surprised but she knew she wasn't great at acting

'oh wow thats really great'

Zed could tell something was up with Eliza.

'you ok?'

'urm yeah sorry. its just  i've got a tun of homework that i've fallen behind on so i'm a little distracted'

'well if you can we are all gonna go out tonight to celebrate'

'i'll pass but thanks'

'ok well i'll catch you later Eliza'

she watches as Zed runs off to catch up with Addison and she spots Willa and Wynter as well but no Wyatt.

Eliza turns back to her locker and opens it rummaging around for her text books for her next class. before she knows it someone comes up behind her putting their hands over her eyes.

'guess who'

'Wyatt' Eliza answers back bluntly

'dam, how did you guess! i bet it was Zed'

Eliza continued to pretend to rummage in her locker delaying herself from turning around.

Wyatt was none the wiser. 'so anyway the guys are going out tonight. But! i was thinking, hoping actually that maybe me and you could bale and hangout, just us...... please' Eliza doesn't answer 'or we could still go out with the guys i don't mind' Wyatt waited patiently for answer!

Eliza closed her eyes and took a deep breath she knew she had to do it, she didn't want to do it here but she thought it was better to get it over and done with just like ripping a band aid off.

she slammed her locker door.

'Wyatt! this has to stop, end whateva! me and you it can't, no it won't happen! i mean we were stupid to even hope it could. look at us you're a werewolf i'm a zombie. it would never work and you leaving at the end of the semester'

'that doesn't matter to me or to any of us. look at Zed and Addison'

Eliza knew this next part she had to say while looking in Wyatts eyes if he was to believe her.

'thats because Addisons a human and we're both' she didn't want to say it 'monsters we could hurt each other'

Eliza knew that what she said wasn't enough she had to go for the final blow. she could feel the tears building and the lump in her thought growing she had to do it now

'and anyway if i wan't a relationship i wan't a normal one not with a...' but she doesn't need to say it as Wyatt says it first

'a werewolf'

thats it Eliza can't stand to look at his broken face anymore a broken face that she did because of the deal she made she had to leave, get out before she burst into tears and crippled over in pain.

she ran past Wyatt and ran straight out of school. she didn't stop till she got home.

she ran straight to her room and slammed the door. she then let the pain she'd been pushing down rise up. she braced herself on her knees. the pain was something she never felt it was like something inside her was trying to burst out, she couldn't breath and when she tried to cry or scream no sound came out.

when the flood of emotions had eased Eliza wrapped herself in her blanket and sat on her windowsill. To her surprise it was dark out she didn't realize how long she had shut herself off for. she looked out over to night sky.

she fought the urge to look at phone because she knew she would have missed calls and right now the last thing she wanted to do was speaks to anyone and explain herself to anyone.

she knew she would have to face the music tomorrow but she was just gonna live in the right now and right now she was hungry and she knew her mums cooking would most definitely help.
