NovelEnglishI didn't know how long I sat staring at the message. Sparagraphs are incomplete if you are not reading this on .net. Visit to read the complete chapters for free. I didn't know what to say back, do I even reply? I wasn't going to shut him out, he didn't deserve that. But I couldn't just sweep what I knew under the carpet. This was big, he could turn into a wolf. I didn't understand, I wasn't really sure I wanted too.
Lies...
I like Jake there was no denying that. I liked how I felt when I was around him but I couldn't let that cloud my judgement. He could be dangerous, probably was dangerous. He was a werewolf for petes sake!!! "I need to chill out". I sighed rubbing a hand down my face. Lifting my phone I typed out a new message.
'Hi' After hitting send I threw my phone to the other side of my bed. I was nervous, I was scared but I couldn't help the little bit of excitement that was building in the pit of my stomach. "Such a loser". I groaned.
He did things toI couldn't explain but I didn't want to stop seeing him, I didn't want to shut him out. I wanted to see him more, I wanted to see him now.
I was so confused but the need to see him was overwhelming. Grabbing my phone and laptop I headed downstairs. My gran and George had already left so I was planning on taking over the couch.
I hated Sunday's, the dreaded day before Monday came. I wanted to go for coffee, I wanted to go out with my friends but I didn't want it to be weird.
Was I the only human amongst us? This was ridiculous. They were human to right, part human? My head hurt, my mind working overtime. I was bored out of my mind. Opening my phone I brought up a new message. I wasn't staying cooped up in the house all day. 'What tare you heading out? x' My phone started to ring, Alanna was calling me. Putting it on speaker I took it away from my ear sinking my teeth into my bottom lip.

"Hey, yeah I'm here". I shouldn't have messaged her. It felt weird already.
"Can you be ready in 10?". She asked.
"Sure, I think so".
"I'll give you a toot when I'm outside".
The line went dead.
Maybe I-... no I was going.
It was just coffee with friends, what's the worst that could happen.
Shaking out my hair I gave myself a once over in the mirror. I had no idea why I was feeling so nervous. Wrapping my scarf around my neck I picked up my bag slipping it over my shoulder.
I was good to go.
Making sure everything in my room was switched off I headed downstairs to wait on Alanna. And that's what I did for the next half an hour.
Glancing down at my phone I sighed. Seriously? She now couldn't make it. Reading the message over again I didn't bother to reply. Finding his number I brought the phone to my ear. I hoped he wasn't busy. "Shorty! How you doing?".
I couldn't help but laugh.
"I'm good Ryan, are you busy?". Alanna and Lacey weren't my only friends here. She had to cancel and that was fine but I didn't want to stay in.
"If you count lying on the couch watching re-run of scrubs busy". He laughed. "Why, you wanna do something?". "Yes I hate Sundays". I groaned.
"I'll be there in 15".
Grabbing a bottle of water from the fridge I decided to wait for Ryan on the front porch. The weather didn't look promising today, it had already started to drizzle with rain. Just my luck.
Catching sight of the cars that started filling the street I was curious as to where they were going. Walking down my front path I rolled my eyes. Of course they were stopping at his house. Jake Taylor seemed to be the life and soul.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWas he having a party? Is that why Alanna cancelled on me? Catching sight of Ryan's car I smiled. As he pulled up he jumped out car still running.
"No fucking way". Running his hand over the side he whistled. "Damn shorty this yours?".
"A gift from my gran".
"Can she be my gran?". He smirked. "It's a nice car Leah".
"It's just a car". Rolling my eyes I couldn't help but stare at his house. Ӧ People were still showing up and my nose was getting the better of me. I wanted to know what was going on. "It's a merc".
"As long as it drives I don't care what kind it is. Now can we go or do you need another minute to swoon?". I smirked. "Shut up". He huffed pushing my shoulder. "Bet you're dying to drive it". As we both got in I put my seatbelt on.
"I'm dying to drive anything". Sighing I gave his house once last glancem before Ryan took off. "But I can't drive until this comes off". "Bummer. Where do you wanna go?". He asked.
"Could go for coffee, maybe grab something to eat?".
