Kayla
Kayla made a new friend. Her name was Charlotte Jackson and she was editor of the school paper. She had sat with her in her last class which was Chemistry. They had to miss some liquids in some tubes. Apparently they had done it before but Kayla had no idea what was going on. Luckily for her, Charlotte came to her rescue and they missed their samples together. Charlotte was an African American with shiny skin and black curly hair. She laughed loudly and easily and Kayla felt drawn to the charm of her laugh. She told Kayla that she had been attending 'The Hills' all her life which basically meant since high school. She had a lot to tell Kayla about the hills she said. It was an interesting place to be.
Kayla was excited about making Charlotte acquainted. After Chemistry which was her last class, she walked out of the classroom with Charlotte. Charlotte told her her mother was already on her way to pick her up and Kayla walked her to the road. Charlotte's mom pulled up after a short while and Charlotte entered the car and they drove off. Kayla sent her mom a text to remind her to pick her up and stood on the road to wait. Then she heard a voice behind her
"Hi again" she turned and was surprised to see the same boy from earlier in the day. What did he say his name was again? Marcus? Lucas?. Kayla wondered if he was following her. She stood there awkwardly obviously unsure of what to say. Then she said "hi" back to him.
He introduced himself again and asked if she said she remembered him. Of course she did. Who could forget those beautiful green eyes. Those eyes that seem to hold all the secrets of the universe. She wanted to stare into his eyes and get lost in them but she knew she couldn't let him see her staring and so she looked away from him and pretended to be disinterested.
He asked how her first day was and she told him it was good. Then he asked her if she had made any friends which almost made her laugh out loud. It was exactly the kind of question her mother would ask. She could see he didn't exactly know what to say and wondered what he really wanted. If he wanted to ask her out, he might just as well get it over with. He seemed like the kind of guy any girl would kill to date. She could see the way the other girls stared at him as they walked past. Any girl would totally say yes if he just asked her out even though he weird. After a very awkward silence, he offered her a ride but she refused. She told him her mother was coming to pick her up and he said he was going to wait with her. He stood with her in silence as she waited. Her mother was running late and she was getting a bit frustrated but then her phone rang. Her mom was calling to tell her she won't be able to come pick her up and that she should take the bus. She was beyond livid. Of course she didn't want to take the bus, especially not with Lucas watching. And so she told him she was going to ride with him and he smiled. It was the most beautiful smile she had ever seen.
She was shocked when she saw his car. He was riding the latest lexus. His parents must be stinking rich, Kayla thought to herself. He put his hands inside his pocket and brought out a key. He pressed on it and the two doors in the front of the car opened like a bird spreading its wings. Lucas followed Kayla to the passenger's seat. She entered and he walked to the driver's seat and got in himself. He clicked the door shut and drove out of the car pack and into the road.
"So where is your house?" He asked her casually
"Just along the road. Close to rocks avenue" she said and glanced at him. Up close she could see his long black lashes and his thick eyebrows. His eyebrows really were thick. She looked at his arms then and noticed the hairs. He was really hairy in a way she wasn't sure was normal. He caught her staring and she looked away quickly. She noticed he also stole glances at her.
"Why Hillcity?" He asked suddenly. She wondered if he wasn't aware that there was something like leading someone up to question.
"My parents got a job here so we moved"
"Tough break for you i suppose?: he said
"I never wanted to leave but there really was nothing i could do"
Lucas said nothing but seemed to be thinking about what she said
"Perhaps you came here for a reason" he said. Kayla had already accepted that he was strange and so she said nothing in return. They were soon at her house. Lucas packed the car and she got down.
"Thank you" she said gratefully
"You're welcome" he said and gave her that smile again. He held her eyes for a minute. This time, her heart seemed to slow down until he turned around and entered his car. Kayla waved to him as he left
She entered the house happily. She knew she couldn't wait to see him the next day.
Lucas Lucas was beyond excited when Kayla agreed that he could drive her home. He had felt blighted when she refused initially but then her mother called her to say she couldn't make it. It was like the universe was helping to get them together. She was the quiet type, Lucas thought as Kayla sat quietly in the passenger's seat close to him. After she came down and thanked him, they both stared at each other for some time. It was like some sort of magnetic force was pulling them together but Lucas resisted. Not yet, he told himself. He still had to deal with the issue of her being a human. He still had to talk to his father, the Alpha, about her. She was all he thought about as he drove home. His house was located in a community partially hidden in a groove and surrounded by trees.but not a lot of people knew that. By the time he drove to the end of the road leading out of Hillcity, there was usually no one going that direction. He thought about Kayla as he drove through the famil
The punch landed on Derrick's jaw and he staggered back and growled not like a man but like a wolf. His werewolf must be so pissed. Derrick turned red with anger immediately. He drew back and clenched his first to land a blow on Lucas but Lucas saw it coming and he was fast. He moved out of Derrick's reach before his first could hit him. He stepped back gracefully like a cat and crouched down ready to defend himself. Derrick clenched his jaw and Lucas could see a vein popping out of his forehead. He gritted his teeth and faced Lucas squarely ready to launch himself upon him. But before he could make the leap, a voice came from behind him "Stop it"! The voice said. Both Lucas and Derrick turned back to see the Alpha standing at the entrance of the hall. Derrick growled again out of anger but he withdrew his punch His black eyes burned as he walked by Lucas' side. "Tomorrow, at lake Maine, 6pm" he said in Lucas's ear as he walked away. Derrick had set a date and place for their f
Kayla Kayla could not stop thinking about Lucas after he dropped her home from school. She could not stop thinking of his beautiful green eyes and golden brown hair. Gosh,the guy was perfect. Maybe this city wasn't so bad afterall, she thought to herself. There was something so special about Lucas but she couldn't quite place her hands on it. He had the grace of a prince and the character of someone who knows that not everything needs to be said. There was something just so mysterious about him. Was it his air or just the way he looks at her like he held the secret of the universe in those perfect green eyes? And the scar in his face, Kayla couldn't just really get past it. She wanted to know how he got the scar. Infact, she wanted to know everything about him and more. She was looking forward to seeing him in school the next day. She hoped he was still going to offer her a ride. She wouldn't think twice before saying yes. Maybe they could even sit together at lunch, Kayla thought but
When Kayla arrived at school the next day, she immediately started searching Lucas out with her eyes. She was so excited and couldn't wait to see him but she told herself that she was not going to show him all of the excitement that she was feeling about him when she saw him. Where did her pride go? Of course she wasn't going to let him know that she had been thinking of him all through the night and that he was the reason she could barely sleep last night and also why she was so excited about getting up from the bed this morning. Kayla scanned the car park with her eyes immediately Mitchel dropped her off and drove away. She couldn't see Lucas's car. Maybe he wasn't in school yet. After all, she was early. He'll probably drive in any moment from now, Kayla thought as she strolled towards the school building. It wasn't like she wanted him to catch her just standing there in the car park waiting for him. She saw Charlotte coming from a distance as she was about to enter the building. Sh
Kayla had hoped that she would go to him and just say a friendly hi but then he rushed out immediately after the class. If Kayla did not know any better, she would have said that he was avoiding her. But why would he be avoiding her? It wasn't like she had done anything to him. They had ended their last encounter on a smiling note. Kayla walked to her next class and luckily Lucas was not in this class so she was able to concentrate better. She was looking forward to her next class which she was going to be having with Charlotte. After the class ended, Natalie moved to her next class. Her last class had run a bit late and so she was amongst the last people to enter the class. She sighted Charlotte immediately talking with a girl. Her bubbly energy could just not be missed. Charlotte beckoned her over and Kayla walked to where she was sitting and sat in the chair beside her. "How have your classes been?" Charlotte asked her. Up close, Kayla could see that Charlotte had light brown eye
Lucas Lucas had been avoiding Kayla. He was doing it to protect her but he was sure she didn't know that. It hurt him to do what he did because he really did like her. But he didn't want to put her in danger of Derrick. She must think he's an asshole right now. She must be thinking the worst of him. He had seen her in history class. Their eyes had met for a moment and then he had looked away but he didn't miss the look of surprise in her face when he later stole a glance at her. He was crestfallen. He really did like her and it was not fair that he couldn't have her just because she was a human. Lucas clenched his fist angrily as he entered inside his car. It was the close of school and he was preparing to go home. But he didn't drive off. He sat down and locked the door to the car. His car was parked in a way that it was overseeing the entrance of the school. Perhaps if he stayed put, he could catch a glance of Kayla before she leaves for home. It wasn't like he could offer her
Kayla Kayla was happy again. Even her mother noticed when she came to pick her up. "I take it that you're beginning to really like this school" Mitchel said "You could say that" Kayla said, smiling "I'm glad," Mitchel said and gave her a smile. It was all because of Lucas. Kayla's day was dampened when he suddenly started to ignore her but he had finally spoken to her. She couldn't be happier. She was beginning to think that he was a real asshole. But it turned out that he was not. She remembered how she felt standing so close to him today. All the hairs on her body seemed to stand on end and she could literally feel the current flowing between them. She really wanted to kiss him too and she could tell that he felt the same with the way he kept looking at her lips like he was about to eat her up. She had called him out on it and she smiled at how uncomfortable her question had made him. It was like there was something pulling her to him as she stared at him. And his eyes, oh
Lucas Lucas met Derrick at lake Maine at exactly 5:58pm. Derrick was already there sitting on a plank of wood and waiting for him. Lucas walked into the cleared circle at the centre of the bushy lake Maine. To their right, there was a river. This was where Lucas and his friends used to swim when they were little. It was also where Derrick and him had had their first fight. Derrick stood up immediately when he saw Lucas. "I was beginning to think you had chickened out," Derrick said, sneering. Lucas said nothing. He knew that Derrick was trying to get him riled up but he wasn't going to take the bait . He was obviously early and there was no reason for Derrick to think he was going to chicken out except to get under his skin. "I want us to make a deal" Lucas said "Wow," Derrick laughed. "He's even making demands. You must think this is a kind of friendly match" Derrick said Lucas ignored him "If I win, you have to promise to stay away from the girl," Lucas said. Derrick f
