Nash walks up to me with a dangerous spark in his eye. As if he wants to take me up against the wall, hard and fast. From the way my body is reacting to him, I'd probably let him. Everyone in hallway is staring at me, probably wondering why mister sexy bad boy looks at me as if I'm his entire world. When really I'm just as plain as everyone else.
The bottom of his cheek is cover in one of his usual bruises. He always seems to have some sort of injury. Something that makes me worry bout him. Rumours say he gets them from street fights. Apparently he is a heartless jerk who gets off on other people's pain, but I don't believe that. I see the vulnerability in his eyes even when he tries so hard to hide it.  People also say he like to go to bars every week and sleep with another man's girlfriend, I don't k ow of its true or not but it defiantly makes my heart hurt.

He walks right up to me and kisses me. Me! Awkward little Melody who has had a crush on him for three years now ever since he ran into me and helped me pick up my books. "Melody I lo-WAKE UP BIRTHDAY GIRL" wait what?

I wake up with my parents shoving cake in my face. "Happy sixteenth birthday princess. Make a wish" I smile and think of what to wish for, I already shifted into my wolf last week so not that. The thought makes me smile. My wolf is unbelievably beautiful with a nice thick brown coat of fur.

It reminds me of another dream I had of me and my mate chasing each other through the woods.

Oh wait what about my mate. I'm sixteen now so I will meet my mate soon. I close my eyes and blow out the candle after I make my wish. "So sweetie what did you wish for" my mum ask me with a big grin

"If I tell you it won't come true" my mum smiles at me and hands me a bag. She whispers to me "Wait til your father leaves to open it" and I smile and tell her 'thank you'

"My little princess is all grown up. What are we gonna do now Trixie?" my dad says pulling my mum in for a hug. "And your father thinks I'm dramatic" my mum says while playfully poking her tongue out at dad.

A knock on the door from downstairs interrupts my parents little moment. "Kyle you're going to be late. We have to go to the pack house now" my dad's friend Joe says while letting himself in "happy birthday kiddo" he says handing me a small box. "Thanks Joey"

"Please tell your daughter to stop calling me that" he says to my dad. "You're my best friend, you should know by now that she's not gonna listen to me" my dad replies messing up my hair. My mum kicks them out telling them that they need to go so we can girl talk.

I open the bag and realise why I had to wait until my dad left. I pull out a sexy red lace bra and the matching barely there undies. "Mum seriously?" she laughs at my obvious discomfort. "What. Your gonna find your mate soon and that's more for him than you"

"I'm pretty sure that's against the mother rule book" she just laughed at me and left me to get dressed. I decided to dress up since today could be the day I meet my mate. Argh I'm so excited.

When I get to school I get this indescribable feeling, like my body is telling be something is going to happen today. I sit through a painfully long double math counting down the seconds until lunch. I can't even put into words how much I hate math. In fact I've even considered quitting school to become a stripper just so I never had to go to another math lesson again in my life. I don't even understand what the teacher is saying. Something about numbers and the alphabet. I just realised the word alphabet has the word alpha in it and I laugh to myself. "Something funny Ms. Velvet?" my bitchy teacher said. You mean apart from you poor teaching skills ...
"No nothing, sorry".

Finally the bell goes and I head to the cafeteria. About time, I've been craving pizza since last week. And corn dogs strangely. Ohh and chocolate waffles.
The most amazing smell of woods and the ocean hits me and my wolf Carly purrs with happiness 'mate, I can smell our mate' she cheers.
"YAY" I accident shout causing everyone to look at me.
"I umm.... Just remembered that it's pizza day. I sure do love pizza" I awkwardly to cover up my outburst.
Just as I look up to see who our mate is the smell goes away. What the hell!
That's so unfair. Damn it !
I could of seen who it was if it wasn't for me freakish outburst. What if I scared him off.
Too bad if I did. He's not getting away from me that easily.
