Leo
After the lovely conversation I had with my sister, I started to remember Astrid, and more specifically, why my sister had a vendetta against her. I didn’t like her at all still, due to our past with her, I just didn’t want to be anywhere near her; My sister, on the other hand, wanted to have her either banished from anywhere our Pack had influence, or fight her. I couldn’t blame her though, in my opinion, Astrid wasn’t even worth our time at this point, but I wasn’t going to tell my sister what to do; The last time I tried to do that, I ended up in charge of both of our chores and more, with my father lecturing me on how it wasn’t my job to order her around.
“Hey, Leo,” Ajax, another member of the football team, said as he caught up to me “You heading to the gym?”
“Me? No, I’m going to go turn myself in for grand larceny. I accidentally stole a pencil sharpener from the main office, and I’m too lazy to return it,” I said as I continued making my way towards the gym.
“Your sarcasm never ends, does it? Could you give this to the coach for me? I’ve got to go help a friend find his next class,” He said as he handed me a form, most likely the sign-up form for the football season.
“No problem, what’s the class your friend is looking for? We both know I know these halls better than you, any day of the week.”
“He’s looking-”
“Writer’s Workshop,” A voice said from behind Ajax, it was that kid from my first hour, only now I had a better look at him and I could honestly agree with what Jocelyn was talking about earlier.
“Oh, yeah, Writer’s Workshop is in room 31 downstairs. Ajax, you know where that is?”
“Yeah, yeah I remember the room; Thank you, Leo,” He said before ushering the other dude away towards the stairwell.
I made a mental note to talk to Jocelyn about the dude later and carried on towards gym class. I handed Ajax’s note to the coach before sitting down on the bleachers and half-heartedly listening to the coach as he explained everything. I only took gym because, one, it was necessary to graduate, and two, it would give me something to do when I was riled up or had excess energy. The coach continued lecturing about how the grades worked and reminded everyone that they needed to take their gym clothes home every week to keep them washed. After what seemed like an hour's worth of lecturing, he dismissed us and brought out some basketballs, and frisbees, and said that today would be a ‘free day’.
“So long as you’re doing something, even if it’s just walking around the gym, you’ll get your points for the day,” He said before calling me over to him, “Thank you for bringing me Ajax’s form, are you going to be doing football again this year, or no?”
“I’m thinking about it, Coach,” I said as I followed him around the court, “I’ll be honest, as fun as it’s been the last couple of years, it’s getting boring.”
“Oh really? Why do you think that is?”
“With your coaching style, Blood Moon’s football team is only getting better each year; But, what’s the point of me playing if every time I do it’s a cakewalk?”
“I’d like to hear you say that to a college football player, Leo,” He said as we passed one of the basketball hoops, “They’d do to you what you do to every team you’ve gone up against thus far. The only way that Blood Moon keeps our track record like it’s been is by not getting ahead of ourselves and keeping our training going. If it’s getting too easy for you, I’ll crank it up a notch for you.”
“Thank you, Coach, it’s good to know you still enjoy torturing me,” I said through a chuckle before grabbing a basketball and joining a couple of my friends on the court.
We shot hoops for the rest of Gym class until the bell rang, when some of my peers went to their next class, I left to meet up with my sister to go get lunch. The fourth hour was lunch period for us, seeing as we had enough credits to have some of our class periods free, we would usually just meet up near the entrance to the school before leaving to grab something to eat; Afterwards, we’d just wait in the parking lot until Fifth hour started, where we’d head to our respective classes.
“Hey Bro, how was Gym?” Jocelyn said as she walked over to where I was sitting.
“Not bad, how was Bio for ya? Astrid give you any trouble?”
“No, but that doesn’t mean I didn’t want to hit her with one of our textbooks,” She said as we left the building towards her car.
“Why am I not surprised? Even if I am the bruiser of the family, you always did want to fight her after her lies,” I said before getting in the passenger seat, “I saw your buddy earlier, by the way, Ajax was helping him find one of his classes. You were right, there’s something different about him.”
“I told you, I’m not fucking crazy, Leo,” She said as we pulled out of the parking lot heading towards a burger place we usually went to for lunch, “There’s something special about him, I just can’t put my finger on it yet; I will though even if it’s the last thing I do.”
“I have no doubt, Sis, just don’t shut me out this time. I’d appreciate it if you’d keep me in the loop on what you learn,” I said as we pulled up for food, the last time my sister was in this detective mode, she didn’t talk to me for a week and I’d rather not have that happen again, “As much as you may get on my nerves, you are my sister, keep that in mind, won’t you?”
“I solemnly swear I won’t shut you out, so long as you swear you won’t be an idiot.”
Mason"I thought you said to just steer clear of the Gordon Twins," I said to Ajax as we made our way towards Writer's Workshop."I did, and I stand by that statement, I know Leo because he's also on the football team but that doesn't mean you should," He said before we exited the stairwell towards the ground floor, "The Gordon Twins are nice enough, but it's best to not get involved with them. They're the children of the current Alpha of the Crimson Wolves, one of the most infamous packs in the States, and if you piss them off there's no one on this earth that can save you.""I had both of them in my first class today, and I could've sworn that the sister kept staring at me," I said as we arrived at my class, "I swear I'm not making this up, Ajax.""Then you better pray that she ain't mad at you. She might be more reserved than her brother, but she's just as, if not more, dangerous than him.""Alright, thanks for helpi
Mason "Need a hand there, bud?" Leo said as I sat on the floor probably looking like an idiot and took his hand to help me back up. "Thank you," I said as I got back up to my feet, "Now if you'll excuse me, I'd rather pretend this whole debacle ever went down." "Leaving so soon? We haven't even gotten your name though," The sister said as I tried to walk past them towards my next class, only for Leo to step in the way blocking my exit. "Why would you want to know my name? I'm nobody important and would like to keep it that way," I said as I looked up to meet Leo's gaze, "And I'd genuinely appreciate it if you moved so I could get to my next class." Leo stood there smirking at me as I tried to get past him again to get to my next class, his sister on the other hand tapped his shoulder and he moved to the side so I could head on to class. She looked at me with a look that held a mixture of curiosity
Mason It was becoming more and more apparent that I wouldn't be able to avoid the Twins as easily as I thought, if they weren't pestering me in the classes we shared, they were blocking my path to my next class in hopes of talking to me for whatever reason they had. I took a seat in the back again on the other side of where the Twins were sitting to avoid having to talk to them, and put one of my earbuds in while we waited for the teacher to start class. While waiting, I took my notebook and pen out to continue writing the short story I had started earlier on during the day. I usually wrote whenever I was bored, and any stories that I was proud of and thought others would enjoy I would upload to a website that specialized in short stories and poems. While I continued writing, the teacher walked in and started doing introductions but in the best way that I had seen all day."I'm sure you've all heard more t
JocelynAfter hearing what Mason had said towards the end of our last class of the day, I was torn between wanting to sucker punch my brother and talking to Mason more. Unfortunately, the latter option wasn't available for long as while I was giving my brother the death stare, Mason walked out of class. I contemplated my remaining options before coming to a rational conclusion as to what I should do next; My brother didn't like my choice as we left the class ourselves he went from laughing his ass off to scowling at me for punching him. "You couldn't have punched him? He was the one who made the joke, not me," He said as we made our way down the hall towards the back parking lot. "I could've, but didn't want to; That and I've been holding that punch back since Biology class, you handled it well though," I said before opening the door towards the lot and heading towards my car."Just because I can handle it doesn
Jocelyn "I'm sorry, but WHAT?!" "I know you heard me, Jocelyn," My dad said as my brother made his back downstairs after hearing me yell. "Part of me doesn't even want to know what you must've said to make her yell, Dad," Leo said before taking a bowl of pasta and sitting down. "Your sister was talking to me about this boy at your school, and I told her that twins can have the same mate." Leo's face had the same expression that mine had, we had been told all our lives that every wolf had their respective mate. Now our father was telling us that it was possible that not only could Mason be my mate, but Leo's too. The look of confusion and shock on my brother's face would've been almost comical if it wasn't for our current situation. It would make sense that Leo got the same vibe from Mason if he was mated to both of us, but that didn't make any sense. "How is it possible for him to be mated to bo
Leo Judging by my sister's expression, I had brought up something that she either didn't consider a possibility or something she didn't want to talk about. I couldn't blame her, she had despised Astrid for a long time and I honestly believed Astrid was why Jocelyn never really had a childhood. After Astrid confessed that she had feelings for us, and thought that she was our mate, we tried to let her off as kindly as possible but she wouldn't let up. Eventually, it reached a point where Jocelyn snapped at her and we hadn't spoken to her since, I didn't want to and I'm pretty sure Jocelyn would sooner hit her with a phone book. "To be frank, Leo, I hadn't thought about her," She said as she spun in her chair, "I try not to think about her, even if I now have to share a class with her." "This is strictly hypothetical, please don't take this out of context, but, if Mason is our mate and Astrid catc
Leo "Would you believe me if I told you I had no idea?" "Considering that she was just standing beside you?" Dad said with an eyebrow raised, "No, no I would not. Where'd she run off to?" "Up that aisle to go talk to someone," I said while pointing up the aisle that Jocelyn ran up, "Though I couldn't advise going up there, you might embarrass her and all that jazz." "Goddess knows I would be just heartbroken if I embarrassed my daughter," He said as we continued shopping, "Do you know who she's talking to?" "It's the guy she was talking about from our school." "If she went to go talk to him, why didn't you join her? Does he make you shy or something?" I looked at my dad in disbelief that he thought that was a possibility, and resisted the urge to roll my eyes. We continued through the store, picking up some snacks and food for dinner the next few days; Before long, Jocelyn caught back up with us carr
Mason After talking to Jocelyn and giving her my phone number, I caught back up with my mom as she gathered food for the week. We were getting stuff to make chimichangas and guacamole, snack foods, and some sodas before heading to the front to check out. Mom kept asking me questions about how school went and what I thought of the school as we checked out. We got out to the car and I loaded the groceries in the back before sitting down in the passenger seat when my mom gave me a look. "So, are you going to tell me who that girl was that you were talking to? Or is this going to be one of those things that we silently acknowledge?" "I should've known you would've seen her," I said through a nervous chuckle at her comment, "I don't even know how to explain it, Ma. I was told by a friend that I met on the bus that I should try and avoid them altogether, they own the school or something." "They must b
