Chapter seven

 ~Alex~

 

We get there and I immediately want to turn around.

"Can we go yet??" I ask looking up at Jackson's 6' figure and he looks at me and sighs.

"I wish." He looks ahead as a girl struts over to us.

"So this is the girlfriend?" She looks me up and down with a disgusted look coating her features. I give her a petty smile and she looks shocked. 

'So this is the girlfriend?' I mock her, badly mimicking her voice on purpose. I look over to find Jackson trying to hold back a laugh.

"Yeah." He finally gets out. 

"Fine. Let's go. After the movie, we'll talk more." She purses her lips and walks away. We end up watching "After" which I'm okay with since I like the movie. When we are finished we wait for the bit- I mean... Girl to get out. I have my arm through Jackson's thats staying hooked by his pocket. "Okay, why the hell would you rather date this ugly ass bitch over me?" She whines.

I open my mouth to snap at her but Jackson beats me to it. "First of all, she's far from ugly, second of all, all that makeup cant make your soul any less ugly, and three your a petty bitch. Dont talk shit about other people until you fucking know them." Her jaw drops and this time I do nothing to hold back my laughter.

She clears her throat and swallows. "F-fine... If you really are dating then... Kiss!" She puts her hands on her hips as if challenging us. 

'You owe me you ass.' I tell him privately before grabbing the collar of his shirt and bringing his lips to mine. I pull away and turn to see her lips trembling.

"Sorry hun, he didn't lie. Now if you dont mind, I think we're going to head home." I roll my eyes and drag him down the street until we turn down the next one, out of her view. I let go of him and start gagging.

"Wow. Real mature. I'm not that bad." He defends himself.

"Last I checked you haven't kissed yourself." I shoot back, although he's right. He isn't bad. Actually he's a great kisser. I'm glad for the dark at the moment because I'm sure my cheeks are as red as a tomato. 

"What am I going to do with you?" He sighs and I start walking. "Wait up!" He runs up to me. 

"Was my acting enough for you?" I ask rolling my eyes.

"You know, for how much you roll your eyes, I'm surprised that they don't get stuck that way."

"Only for you." I wink at him and he chuckles.

"Okay, dork."

Chapter eight

~Jackson~

 

I walk her to her room and smile at her. "Thank you." She smirks back and shrugs.

"Anytime." She shuts her door and I sigh. Tonight was perfect. Yeah, Sarah (I think that's her name?) Was super annoying but I got to kiss Alex! I'm acting like I'm in elementary and their crush told them that they like them. Ugh. I've liked Alex for a while but it keeps getting stronger. I suppose that'll stop once I find my mate. Wolves can only figure out who their mate is once they are 18 and older. 

 

"Jackson. Jackson. Jackson. Jackson. Jackson. Jackson. Jackson!" I feel my bed dip and I open my eyes. After they adjust I see Alex bouncing on my bed. 

"What?" I ask.

"I'm bored." I sigh and roll my eyes at her. 

"So you wake me up at," I look over at my clock. "6:47 in the morning because you are bored?"

"Mmm yes?" She smiles innocently at me. "I'm sorry, I just haven't slept all night." I notice that she does have dark bags under her eyes.

"If I'm here and you can't sleep just come in here." I sigh. "Come here." I pat the bed next to me and she lays down under the blankets. "Why can't you sleep?" I ask despite being ready to pass out again.

"I dunno." She says.

"Bull." 

"Fine. Ive just been... Thinking. And I'm sort of afraid after my dream." She admits shyly.

"What was your dream?" She hesitates before answering me.

"Basically some guy was in love with me so he killed y- my mate. He shot him but suffocated me. Not before uh... Doing stuff but yeah."

I gulp at hearing her dream. I understand the screams now. I pull her close to me and begin stoking her hair. "I'm really sorry... Let's do this, we are going to alter it. Okay?" She giggles but nods. "Once upon a time there was a big bad wolf. He wanted to have... Red riding hood all for himself so he did whatever he could to get her. He even went to the extent of preparing to kill, but before he could, red's hero -- *cough* Jackson *cough* -- comes in and gets him off her. *cough* Jackson comes out of the fight with not even a scratch on him. He saves her and then runs away, bringing her somewhere safe, and stays with her for the rest of their lives."

She giggles at my re-make of her dream but still smiles when she looks up at me. "Thank you." I nod at her and a few minutes later, her breathing evens out, not caring that her head is resting on my chest. I quickly join her slumber, satisfied with the start of the day.

 

Chapter nine

~Alex~

 

Going into Jackson's room was a long shot, but I'm glad I did. He made me feel a lot better and I got to sleep with him again. I wake up again to my dad yelling from down stairs that we both need to get up. I groan as Jackson starts to get up and he laughs at me.

"What? Your warm." I complain. He laughs again and I prop up on my shoulder to look at the time. "Damn. Its already noon?" I sigh and move to get out of his bed.

"How'd you sleep?" He asks following behind me.

"Pretty good." I admit.

"Good. I'm glad." We walk downstairs and join our parents in the kitchen.

"Morning sleepy heads." My mom greets, smirking at me.

"Sorry. I couldn't sleep until almost seven this morning." I tell her.

"Well we have some news." My dad starts. 

"Wait. Am I having a younger sibling?? I knew this was going to happen." I sigh and everyone laughs at me.

"No." He shakes his head at me and continues. "They are going to move in with us." He signals to Myah and Ashton.

"Nice! I get to live without parents!" Jackson exclaims.

"Nope. You are too mister." Myah tells him sternly.

"Damn." He whispers under his breath causing me to laugh. My parents both give me questioning looks and then ask if they can talk to me. We head to my room and I go to my nightstand and grab my pill as they start talking.

"You've laugh two times in the last two days before you've taken it. Whats going on?" My father asks concerned. 

"I honestly dont know. Its just little things Jackson does that make me laugh." I feel my cheeks heat a tiny bit as I smile. My parents look at each other and back at me with a smirk on her face.

"Looks like somebody likes a certain somebody." My face turns dark red from embarrassment before I defend myself.

"Pfft no I don't! He's... Hes Jackson! Jackson is Jackson! He's just... No! I don't! Plus even if I did it wouldn't matter! He wouldnt like me back and once I find my mate it won't matter anyways. B-but I don't!"

"She didn't say a name..." My dad points out. I flop down on my bed onto my stomach. I groan and my mom laughs.

"Oh honey... You are so far gone."

Chapter ten

~Jackson~

 

They come back down and Alex's face is bright red. She plops down on one of the bar stools and just grumbles when they laugh.

"So Jack." Her dad starts. "Do you have your eyes on anyone?" I spit out the orange juice I had began drinking and start choking.

"Woah, don't die." Alex starts patting my back and in between coughing I start laughing.

"Will do." I tell her when I'm finished. "And uh, yes." I answer him.

"What??" My mom shrieks. "Do tell!" I have both the woman's attention but Alex looks away. 

"I uh... I'm going to go get dressed." She says and rushes out of the room. 

"Is she okay??" I ask looking to her parents.

"Yeah... She's fine. She just needs alone time sometimes. Typical teen behavior." Blair smiles at me. "So who is the lucky girl?" My cheeks flush a bit as I think of the person who just ran out.

"I know who it is." My mom smirks at me.

"Myah! Who?" Blair gushes at her best friend.

"A certain you know, Steele child." I glare at my mom as the redness darkens. Dylan and Blair look at each other and smile but look back with straight faces. 

"Thanks mom." I roll my eyes at her and she gets up. She walks around the breakfast bar and when she passes me she smacks the back of my head. "Owww!"  I hear a small giggle and turn to Alex.

"What'd you do to deserve that one?" She asks still giggling. I huff and stick my tongue out at her. "Oh, poor Jackson. You're going to regret that." I pop up and rush out the door with Alex on my tail. We turn into our wolves and she tries to get
