Elijah P.O.V.
"Hey, stop laughing at me," Jake told me. I kept my hand over my mouth from stopping my laughing at my best friend. I kept my mouth shut when I heard him in the bathroom puking in the toilet. I can listen to him in there puking. I let out a laugh behind my hand.
"Oh, shut up!" Won't you go to gym class!" Jake told me off and left. So, I did with a shake of my head, laughing, and walking out to the class.
Gym Class...
"Well, hello, Mr. Woods; it's nice for you to join us," Miss Walters said. I wanted to look down because I puked if I looked at her.
"Yes, thank you, Miss Walters," I said, looking over at Avery. I can see she is blushing and trying not to stare at me.
"I am here, Miss Walters!" I looked and saw Jake, my best friend running in the gym class. He stops beside me and Jayson and Eli, my other friends. Sorry, I was late; I didn't feel very well," he told her with a green face. He was staring at me with an irritated look on his face.
"Oh no, you okay, Mr. Stone? Do you need to go to the nurse's office?" Miss Walters said to him.
"No, ma'am Miss Walters, I am okay now" I am ready for class," Jake told her.
She looked at him and me. She doesn't know what's going on right now. That's good to know. It would hurt her feelings. I didn't want to be in trouble with my parents and get detention after school.
She nodded at us and returned to what she was doing.
"Okay, class, we are going to go outside and run laps around the field, But you are going to be teaming up with a running buddy." She told us.
"But before we do that. I need to call out names to see everyone is here."
"Jake Stone"
Here I see Jake raise his hand,
"Ashely Williams"
Here I see Ashely raise her hand.
"Yeah, of course, that bitch is here," Jayson said.
"Oh, stop it! we know you guys like each other's." I said with a smirk on my face.
"Shut up, dude." No one heard you in Paris, bro!"
He said, getting irritated with me and Jake and Eli from laughing. He looked around, and he didn't see her looking at him. He let out a growl. I looked over at her, and Avery Butch Anderson was talking to the girls and smiling at them. He's the new student here.
He was not a werewolf. He was part a warlock and vampire. He was on the track team. He was okay but needed to watch because Jayson and Eli growled out loud. They were staring at them, laughing and talking.
"Hey, guys! Stop staring at them." I told him.
"Stop it! Miss Walters is talking, and she is coming over towards us." Jake said.
"Jayson Woods"
I am here he said with a growl. She looked at him and gave him a strange look.
"Sherry Stevens"
I am here she said with a giggle behind her hand. I looked over at her. She was flirting with Bobby Anderson, our friend on the football team.
"Booby Anderson"
"Here," he said with a groan in his voice.
"Natalie Steele"
"Here," she said with a blush on her cheeks, looking over at Eli. She looked down.
"Eli Wallace"
"Here," he said, licking his lips and looking over at Natalie. She started hiding behind Butch's friend. Eli didn't like that. He would go over there if it weren't for Jayson grabbing his shoulder.
"No, Eli" "You can't be getting in any fights," I told him.
He ignored Jayson's hand on his shoulder. But he did nod his head, looking over at the dude and her.
"Fine!" He took a deep breath." Eli said, and I saw him breathe in and breath out.
Okay, the class is now; everyone is here." Let's go outside." Miss. Walters said and walked outside.
Outside...
I was running around the track when I saw Avery in front of me. Miss. Walters teams me up with Emilia. She keeps grabbing my arm. I want to give us some space. But she kept holding on to me.
"Emilia, really, you can let me go," I told her, trying to block her hands on my arm.
"Why? I am your girlfriend, Elijah baby," she said, pouting with a smug look on her face.
"No, you're not" We are not dating anymore after I found out you were going to kill Avery" I don't need a crazy girlfriend, doesn't truth me," I tell her with irritation in my voice.
"Oh, come on! Baby!" I wasn't going to kill the nerdy bitch" I was going to chat with her." I saw the look in her eyes. I want to protect Avery away from this sociopath girl.
She pouted after I told her how I felt about her. She went back behind me, talking to her girlfriends. But I know her. She has a plan to hurt my mate. Emilia and Amelia have something up their sleeves. Jake and I had to watch out for our mate before something happened again to her.
An hour and a half...
Avery P.O.V.
I was standing inside the gym class, and Bobby Anderson approached me. He started smiling and walking towards me and my friends.
"Hey, Avery!" How is it going, babe" he said with a wink. I heard a loud growl. I moved my head and looked toward Elijah, Jake, and their friends. I saw Jake, and Elijah was angry. There was no way they cared about Bobby Anderson over here talking to me.
Maybe it was the girls around us growling. I was talking to one of the most gorgeous guys in our school. But that wish thinking. I hoped Elijah and Jake were jealous for once. They had the two girls on their laps earlier when we were in the lunchroom.
I went back to the present.
"Oh, hey, I am doing well, Bobby; thanks for asking," I told him.
"You know Avery, you're an incredibly beautiful girl." How about we hang out at my party this weekend." He asked me with a smug smile on his face. I didn't know, I thought.
"Hey, bring your friends too." More the merry," he said, winking and walking back over towards his friends. But he is still standing close to us. I saw Natalie was blushing and hiding behind Bobby's friend. I looked over and saw Eli Wallace staring at them with his fist folding in his hands with an angry look on his face. I thought I saw his eyes turn dark.
That's got to wait, Miss. Walters started name-calling. She called all our names and told us we had a teammate running around the track.
I got to team up with Jake Stone, the guy I had a crush on in my middle school years. But he doesn't know that, ha-ha. I laughed inside my head. I heard Angelstar and the voice in my head say. Stop doing that. People and Jake will think I am crazy, lol. I rolled my eyes at them. I started running around the track.
"Hold on!" Jake said. I didn't want to see him; he saw my face all red and blushing because I was close to him. I didn't know what to say to him. He made me nervous, and Elijah did too. So, I started running faster away from him.
"Avery," I felt him grab my arm. I turned around, staring at the ground with red cheeks. Then he picked up my chin. He lifted my face.
"Hey, I was trying to ask how you've been'' he said, staring at me with a concerned look on his face.
"I am doing great, thanks for asking." I stared into his eyes when I replied to him.
"Oh, okay, well, did you think about what I asked you two weeks ago." He said, licking his lips, staring at me.
I licked my lips. He followed my tongue come out and went back inside my mouth.
"Yes, I did. I don't think so." I said to him. Then I felt my chest. I grabbed hold of my arm so he didn't find out my chest was hurting. Then I saw his face. His eyes looked like they were turning red. I didn't know if he was mad or going to cry.
"Why do you want to date me, Jake?" I asked him when I folded my arms across my chest.
"Because I want to be your friend. and we can hang out sometimes." What you say." He asked me.
"Okay, I will be your friend." If I found out this some threat or joke." I will never forgive you." I told him.
"Okay," he said with a smile on his face. I nodded my head and started running at a slow pace so we could run together around the track. But what I need to know is. This day doesn't get weirder. No, there's more to it if Jake wants to be my friend.
