Have Fun Reading!! ^.^

                      I had just made it to the end of the hallway when a grip on my upper arm stopped me in my tracks.

          "Hey, slow down! I'm new here and with the speed you're moving, it's hard for me to follow you." Tracey said, followed by a loud exhale of breath.

           "And what did you mean earlier?" She inquired, with a raised brow.

           "If you haven't noticed before, the bell rang already and I don't want to be late again. I better get going." I replied, ignoring her other question.

          "Hey.." she called but I didn't respond and kept going. The fact that she wanted to be friends with me was making me quite uncomfortable. The only girl I ever wanted to notice me was Carly but the chances of being with her were nearly zero.

           I stopped at my locker to get my book for the next class when I heard the hushed voices coming from the janitor's closet. I followed the voices and as soon as I reached the water cooler near janitor's closet, I knew who the voice belonged to. I was hit by the strong scent of my mate, Carly. It seemed Carly and the other person, who I assumed was Tyler, were in the middle of the heated argument. 

          I couldn't help but to eavesdrop. Bad, I know but it was Carly. She might be in trouble or something. I needed to make sure she was safe and sound. I stayed at a distance as not draw attention and heard their conversation.

           "You know, a little warning beforehand would have saved me from all the embarrassment." she whispered angrily.

         "You puked all over me and then passed out." she continued, "Not only you spoiled my favourite dress but also left me without a ride home!"

         "I know. I'm not like this, not always at least. And you know this. I think, I just got carried away." Tyler said sheepishly.

        "Carried away, my ass!" she spat, " You know better of all people that I don't like drunks, they're simply pain in the ass. Few shots are okay with me as long as you remain in your senses, but you just totally lost control!"

         There was some shuffling inside the closet and then the door opened. A pissed off Carly came out, followed by equally annoyed Tyler.

       "Why are you making such a big deal out of this?" Tyler asked, grabbing her wrist and turning her around.

    My wolf stood on his four at full attention, sensing Carly's discomfort, all ready to shift and attack in case there was any harm to his mate.

      "It's not like I cheated on you or something! Is there something else that's bothering you? Because you're not yourself lately!" He argued.

       "You know what Tyler, just..just..nevermind!" Carly huffed and started moving.

      Tyler took her hand again and pleaded, "Look, I'm sorry. I really am. Please forgive me, it won't happen again. I promise!"

               She was about to give in, call it instinct or whatever but I knew she won't stay mad for that long, when Tracey's loud voice made her turn in our direction. Where did Tracey come from, I didn't know. Guess I was too busy in listening to their bickering. And the fact that I couldn't sense her smell proved she was a human.

             "There I thought you were running late for the class. So much for being on time." Tracey mocked me.

            I didn't say anything, I didn't want to.

             "C'mon! Are you always like this?" she asked irritated.

          "At least show some courtesy when somebody's talkin' to you." She complained.

                     I turned towards her to tell her to leave me alone when my hood fell off and I came face to face with her. A gasp left her mouth and her big brown eyes widened. My eyes widened too, I didn't want to scare her away but just to leave me alone. I quickly tried to pull my hood up but her hand stopped me. I was too shocked to respond when her hand traced my scar on the right side of my face, which ran from my cheekbone to the upper corner of my lips.

                      I felt someone boring a hole in my head and turned my head to the side to find Carly glaring at me and then Tracey. If looks could kill, we would be dead by now. She looked at me again and her eyes held so many emotions that it was confusing but the one that made me wonder was hurt. Why would she be hurt? It's not like I did something to her. God, was it jealousy that I just sensed? That thought made me happy inside but it was too good to be true. I must be a stupid to think that. But then again, just the look of hurt in her eyes made my heart ache. I could never think of me or someone else hurting her.

                   She grated her teeth in annoyance and held Tyler's hand, who had a confused look on his face but that changed to a scowl when he noticed me staring, and walked in the opposite direction.

               I looked at Tracey who was still looking at me strangely. 

             "How did..." before she could finish her question I cut her off and jerked her hand away from my face.

                "Don't ever touch me again." I growled and shoved passed her.

            Today was definitely not my day. I must've woken up on the wrong side of the bed. I felt exhausted and it was only second period. I just wanted to leave school and go for a run. My wolf and I always felt better after a long run through the woods. I skipped the second period, I was already late so what was the point of making a scene in the class.

           Rest of the day passed slowly. I didn't see Tracey or Carly either. When did my life become so full of drama, I had no idea. I was never rude to anyone before, sure I didn't talk but I was never ever rude. But today with Tracey, I knew it wasn't her fault, it was merely a curiosity but she pushed me on the edge and I wasn't ready to discuss my life with someone I hardly knew.

                 There was something that wasn't right. I knew it was more than just guilt of being rude to Tracey. I had felt like this when I first saw Carly after she moved back here. How can it be possible? Carly was my mate so feeling that pull was natural. But with Tracey, she was not even a werewolf. There was more to her than met the eye!
