“Thanks, tell her I said I owe her one.” She waved her hand at me and I turned to walk back to my table unwrapping the burger.
“You’ve got to eat more than that, ya know.” Ander said from behind me as I bit into the amazing burger. I rolled my eyes and snatched some fries from a skins’ plate.
“There, happy?” He probably would’ve grumbled and griped at me if it were a girl but seeing as it was a guy he just had to blow it out of proportion. Because he was, after all, Ander Mascot. He snatched the fries from my hand and put them back on the guys plate.
“Go get your own food, Luna. Don’t take from other people.” I simply blinked at him and took another bite of the burger.
“Why must you make everything so difficult, Looney?” Leotis said as dropped fries in my hand from his tray.
“The same reason why you make everything so simple, Dick.” He was cocky as all hell, seeing as he was the Victor of the lions. Felis would have nothing to do with Leo or his group of ‘rowdy, know-it-all heathens’. Her words not mine.
“See ya later alligator.” He said before sending a wink towards Ander and walking to his section of the cafeteria. I picked up a fry awkwardly and popped in my mouth then smiled at Ander before walking away. Music started and I stopped instantly feeling my blood rush up the way it normally did when music was played. I hadn’t even gotten to eat and they were already ready to throw on the theatricals.
Fresh field high had turned into a performing arts school three years after we had been there. So all the old students had to audition to become new students, the wolves all sang and got an easy ticket in. Every wolf could sing, our vocal cords were strong due to us howling every full moon. Wouldn’t want to rupture one while worshipping your goddess, now would you? I was the only exception… well all the victors were an exception. There was something wrong with our blood, well there was something wrong with everything in us. We all had ADD and ADHD, along with that we weren’t allowed to sing. Our voices contained the undoing of our species. If I were to sing, in my real voice that is, all the wolves in the school would break into whatever emotion I was feeling and that would not be good.
So the victors were left with a dilemma, either sing or not be able to protect your species… which is what we were made for. So we improvised. We used our God-given “talents” to get in. We danced, the music called to us all. It sped our blood up and we weren’t able to remain still whilst it played. We all carried a rhythm within us that helped us move with fluidity and deathly grace. When it was time these gifts would come in handy, but until we would… play with them.
“You don’t have to, ya know.” Ander sighed as he took my fries and burger then set them down on the table.
“You don’t have to tell me that every time, but you do don’t you?” I said as I passed him. A student stood up at the stage like apparatus that had been built in to the school gripping the microphone in his hands. I ruffled up my hair and walked to the front of the stage as all the victors walked to where I stood.
“Hey Ursula.” I whispered and winked at the bear shifter. She rolled her eyes and stood in front of me.
“My first went a little like this
And twist And twist Well my first kiss went a little like this And twist And twist I said no more teachers and no more books I got a kiss under the bleachers Hoping that nobody looks Lips like liquorish tongue like candy Excuse me miss But can I get you out your panties? In the back of the car On our way to the bar I got you on my lips
I got you on my lips At the foot of the stairs With my fingers in your hair Baby, this is it She won't ever get enough Once she gets a little touch If I had it my way You know that I'd make her say Ooooooh Ooooooh
She won't ever get enough Once she gets a little touch If I had it my way You know that I'd make her say Ooooooh Ooooooh.” The human didn’t sound so bad as he sang so it was easy to dance to. The music boiled up my blood as I danced and twisted and turned.
“My first kiss went a little like this I said no more sailors And no more soldiers With your name in a heart Tattooed up n the shoulders Your kiss is like whiskey It get's me drunk And I wake up in the morning With the taste of your tongue In the back of the car On our way to the bar I got you on my lips I got you on my lips At the foot of the stairs With my fingers in your hair Baby, this is it She won't ever get enough Once she gets a little touch If I had it my way You know that I'd make her say Ooooooh Ooooooh
She won't ever get enough Once she gets a little touch If I had it my way You know that I'd make her say Ooooooh Ooooooh” My hair fanned across my face but nothing would stop me until the music stopped Leo winked as he moved to where I stood for the bridge. He put his hands on my hips as I sashayed them and wrapped my arms around his neck. He smirked as he lifted me and spun then dipped me down.
“My first kiss went a little like this And twist And twist Well my first kiss went a little like this And twist And twist Yeah she won't ever get enough Once she gets a little touch If I had it, my way You know that I'd make her say Ooooooh She won't ever get enough Once she gets a little touch If I had it my way You know that I'd make her say.” When the song ended I huffed and put my hand in my hair as a pose as my hip leaned into Leo’s side. The cafeteria clapped and I licked my lips. Leo kissed my head and ruffled my hair.
“We talked about the no hand rule outside of dancing, right Leotis?”
“Ouch, full name. Yes we did talk about it LunaRosa, and I said I’d think about it.” A growl interrupted my sentence and I held my smirk in.
“Hold it there, big boy. Just kidding, no need to start growing hairs.” Leo’s eyes flashed the golden amber of a lion before he sauntered away. I turned to look at him, looking around to make sure none of the skins saw before I walked to him. I put my hand on his chest and peered up at him through my lashes.
“Please stop doing this.” I asked through the mind link while sending him a glare.
“He was touching you.” He snarled back at me and my eyes hardened as I stepped back.
“You touch her all the time. What kind of double standard are you living by?” I purposely kept the hurt out of my eyes and my voice.
“Luna.”
“I’ve got choir, see you and the brat last period.” I said before turning off. Alissa stood with her arms crossed and an absolutely ticked off expression on her face. She took one look at my eyes and my clenched fists and automatically softened.
“Luna…”
“Leave it, go to class.” I snarled as I picked up my burger and fries. I was immensely pissed off and unbelievably hurt, no skin could see it nor could any other species. Only family and very few friends could see it.
Chapter 2“Lunch isn’t over yet.” She said softly as I marched past her, refusing to answer that. I bit into my burger and headed for the doors, I could go to class early. I heard the double doors open behind me but I didn’t slow down or stop eating my burger. A person jumped on my back and another person grabbed my legs ensuring I couldn’t move.
“You guys are major doofs.” I mumbled through chewed up burger.
“Yeah… but you love us.” Cella said as she gave me a noogie.
“Nah, she loves me. Couldn’t give two pigeon poops about you.” Mason said nestling his head into my belly.
“If you guys don’t mind I’ve got choir.” Cella snorted as she hopped off my back and put her hands on her hips as she sidled next to me.
“Since when do you care so much about the meat sacks?”
“That’s the name now?” Mason asked as he popped up from the floor wiping dirt from his black jeans. “I thought we were going with blood pouches?”
“That’s a little offensive don’t you think?” Cella asked as she looked to me, I shrugged keeping the burger in my mouth and savoring the meat.
“And meat sacks aren’t?” Mason asked, quirking one black brow at his twin sister, his lip tipping up at one side. Mason was hot, in every way imaginable. He had abs that would make any girl dump whoever they were with if only just to touch them once and charm that would shame the devil. My eyes just weren’t… for him.
“Shut up doof.” She scoffed then looked to me and blinked making her bangs shake as if she just realized I was here.
“That was quite a dance in there.”
“That was the normal dance.”
“Oh no I wasn’t talking about that, furry, I was talking about the little dance between you, Leotis, and Ander.” She quirked a brow and crossed her arms. I rolled my eyes and walked away, not wanting to talk about it.
“Nice going doof, you upset her.” Mason said before he flinted in front of me. I sighed and pushed the last of my burger in my mouth, then raised a brow as if to say what are you going to do now. He raised one back and instantly I was encased in two pair of arms.
“Twin terrors!” He shouted gleefully I sighed and swallowed the burger which was starting to taste nasty.
“I’m not upset I just… have to get to the classroom. To set up the board.” I said reluctantly trying to make it sound as sincere as possible. They both snorted at the same time and squeezed tighter, making me bite my lip to keep from laughing.
“Fine! If you must know I’ve got a really hard song and I need to prepare the classroom.” I was fighting so hard not to make my voice tremor, they squeezed until I squeaked mercy.
“Fine, fine, fine!!! I’m upset!!” The arms disappeared and I wrapped an arm around my midsection.
“Not cool, at
