I entered the empty classroom with Thomas beside me. I saw the books that Kyle had talked about on my desk. Me and Thomas headed to the back of the class waiting for the rest of the students to fill in. Some of the students that were werewolves bowed their head slightly at me when they entered and got to their seats. I occasionally nodded back. I kept my eyes on the door most of the time impatient for the arrival of my mate.
Soon Andrew and Aria came in, nodded at me, and sat on the desks next to ours. Thomas started a conversation with Andrew and Aria probably informing them of my mate because I could feel the glances that they gave me but I ignored them staring at the door.
About half of the class was filled when I detected the scent of peppermint and rain. His scent seemed to embrace every inch of my body urging me to go to him. He entered the door with a boy by his side. The boy had dirty blonde hair and brown eyes. I could tell by his scent that the boy was werewolf from Kyle's pack. I had forgotten his name not usually seen him around.
They were talking about something. Then my mate turned to me as if feeling my stare. He instantly blushed and looked at the floor. My heart skipped a beat and I could tell my wolf was happy that we affected our mate like that. I kept looking at him curiously, forcing myself not to smile.
"Zeiden, dude are you coming?" I could hear the blonde boy asked looking up at my mate,Zeiden, from one of the desks in the front with my werewolf hearing. Zeiden stumbled a little as he hurried to the seat next to the blonde hair boy. I wanted nothing more than have him at my side at that moment. I finally got my mates name.
"Dude are you blushing?." His friend asked in a semi loud teasing voice. Zeiden just shoved him still blushing.
"Dylan," he said in a smooth and deep silky voice that instantly captured my heart it was slightly husky making me think that he did not talk a lot, "can I ask you something?" He turned his head to his friend, Dylan. Dylan turned to look at Zeiden.
"Listening in on your mate." Thomas said shaking his head acting disappointed.
"Shut up." I said turning back to my mate but just then the teacher, Mr.Rodriguez, came in and the bell rang causing all the students to face the front.
Mr.Rodriguez stepped behind the desk gathering some papers before looking up. His eyes meet mine for a second before he stood straighter and said, "Today we will be reviewing the vocabulary," he moved around the room passing out a paper to us, "terms that will be in the exam this Thursday. You will be copying your notes from the slides." He turned on the projector. "Argument and Style Terms." He said reading of the slide. The students started making quiet conversation with their partners already ignoring the poor man.
I kept my eyes on Zeiden as Mr.Rodriguez began on the first word anastrophe. He had turned back to Dylan and began to talk to him. I turned my eyes out the window next to me as I used my werewolf hearing again to listen in.
"Who is the black haired girl with green eyes in the back?" He asked in his soft silky voice.
A second later I heard Dylan sigh lowering his voice making it a bit harder to hear, he said, "Zeiden, dude she is really not someone to talk to. She is seriously bad news." This almost caused me to turn around. I didn't know I was bad new.
"Why?" I could hear the curiously in Zeiden's voice.
"Just trust me on this,okay?" I was actually quite amuse at how they seemed to view me. I mean I am not blind I do notice that others try to avoid me but I didn't know it was because I seemed like bad news.
I thought they finished talking but I heard Zeiden voice again. "You still haven't answered my question." He probed persistent.
I heard silence probably trying to convince Zeiden to drop it. "She is Ruedan." He said giving up.
"Wait the one you were talking about last week," the way he emphasized who I was in a surprised tone made me curious to what they talked about. It was silent for a moment Dylan probably confirmed Zeiden's thoughts because he hesitated with his next words carefully. "But then why would you warn me about her." He said confused.
I heard a sigh from Dylan muttering, "Never mind. Forget anything I said."
I could still feel eyes on me so I turned towards them and saw my mate looking at me. When my eyes meet his, he widen his eye but he maintained eye contact as if trying to search my eyes for an answer to his questions. I looked back at him with blanked eyes till he turned around and continued writing. His scent seemed to get stronger making my wolf uneasy. The single look from him made me want to walk over to him. For the rest of the class he didn't turn around which helped my self control.
By the end of class I had decided that I would talk to him when class finished. But then the thoughts came. What am I suppose to tell him? I had never had to deal with trying to impress someone. That thought kept swarming my head the whole class period.
When the bell rang I was going to head straight to Zeiden determined to first introduce myself and then let it go from there. But he had already left the class before I even collected my books. Before I could chicken myself out of my decision, I told Thomas I would see him at lunch.
When I got out of the room I saw the halls already flooded with students. I immediately spotted him a few meters away from me. "Hey!" I shouted trying to get him to stop. A lot of heads turned towards me but at that moment I wasn't thinking about what they thought. Zeiden didn't turn around. I knew that he had heard me because most of the students around him turned towards me. I hurried my pace and was next to him in no time.
I put my hand on his shoulder to get his attention. I felt a surge of electricity from the contact. It reminded me of the shocks I would get when I was a kid sliding down a long slide. The feeling of the tiny electrical nips on my skin. He jumped and gasped when I touched him making my hand drop and my wolf dejected at how he reacted. I pretended I didn't notice and hid the purr that my wolf had made out loud. His delicious scent was once again embracing me. I subconsciously leaned towards him a bit more trying to take it all in.
"Hi." I said trying to give him a small smile as he turned his dark brown eyes towards me. He blushed and looking around us for a few seconds then at me. "My name is Ruedan but call me Rue." I said after he his eyes were on me again. I noticed I was leaning to close and leaned back because if I didn't my wolf would grab him and take him away.
He didn't say anything for a while but then he said in a soft voice, "I'm- my na-names' Zei-Zeid-Zeiden." He stuttered his eyes on my the whole time. I could feel my wolf urge me closer at the sound of his voice.
"What is your next class?" I asked him trying to ignore my wolf. My eyes kept looking at his lips. They seemed so inviting.
"I have Statistics class." He said still looking at other students passing by.
"Great so do I. Do you want to sit together?" I asked him before I could even think about it. My wolf liked the idea of it.
Then his eyebrows furrowed in confusion he bit his lip and nodding his head. My eyes zeroed in on his lips suddenly not able to control my emotions. I felt unbearable lust as he fiddled with his books. My breathing slowly began to speed up. Luckily I had been keeping my face clear of emotion since I could walk so that was not a problem.
I could also feel my wolf trying to get control. I was surprised by the sudden fight for power than she almost took over. I knew that at that moment my eyes were gold because of my wolf, but luckily Zeiden was still looking at the floor. I clenched my fist trying to control her from doing anything tilting my head away from him. I finally got her a bit under control and my eyes to turn back to green just as Zeiden turned to look at me.
I thought that I had finally gotten full control and eased up. Unfortunately at that moment I felt my wolf come at me with full force for control. I could feel my eyes go gold again and quickly turned around.
I clenched my jaw and started walking away. "I need to get my books." I told him and walked away as fast as I could. Once I turned the corner I began to slow down.
I gulped huge breathes of air trying to get my eyes back to green again. I had only ever had to fight my wolf for control a couple time in my entire life. And one was earlier today. This time I got upset with my wolf making her retreat to the back of my mind like a hurt puppy licking her wounds. That should hold her in for the rest of the day.
I walked to my locker with a few students still around thinking of the three times just today that I almost lost control. Is it always going to be like this around him? I asked myself. I never realized how dangerous this could really be. To add to my worries I still had to explain myself to Kyle for my actions. I was worried it would happen again, but at least this time I would be prepared.
With that I headed to my next class where my mate waited.
