Chapter 2 - Chapter 2 - Am I crazy?

That was three years ago. I'm seventeen now, and have totally gotten over them. Who am I kidding, Of course I haven't! Wolves and coyotes are part of me. Every night I would listen to his howl, wishing I could run with him, run my hands through his fur. I'm crazy right? But I've overcome that phase. I'm a normal teenager now.

I threw on my backpack and headed downstairs. Time to go to school. At least it's a Friday! I walked outside just to catch the bus. The sun crawled upwards in the sky and just peaked over the clouds, making the tips of the evergreen trees golden. I gazed out the window and imagined a pack of wolves running alongside the bus. They nipped at each other and playfully bumped into one another. I blinked and they disappeared into thin air as if they had been swallowed by the inverse. I sighed wishing they would actually be there, just as Aaron sat down next to me.

"Morning, beautiful," he said with a smile as he kissed my cheek. I put on a smile and gripped his hand.

"Good Morning Handsome," I replied. Aaron was one of The most popular kids at school, and he was always really nice to me. We had been dating for three months now. My parents love him and he is pretty perfect I guess. Good grades, handsome, good family, loves kids, smart, and talented. Everything I wanted right? I don't know, something just felt missing when I was with him. I wasn't sure what it was, because he was so kind. I told you, I'm really crazy.

We got off the bus holding hands, as the cold air nipped at my skin. I pulled my hat over my ears as we headed towards the entrance. It was November, but it was getting colder by the second. Aaron waved goodbye as he trotted I've ego his football friends. I looked for Isabella, who was currently my only friend at this school, since my other friend, Nataley, had just moved to Minnesota last summer. She was leaning against a pillar on her phone.

"Hey Bella!" I said while grabbing her arm.

"Hey Em!" She answered excitedly. "Are you going to that party tonight? Everyone is supposed to be there, including Aaron." She winked at me. She was the one who set us up, and thinks we were made for each other.

"I presume so," I shrugged. Every year the jocks have a giant party at one of their mansions and they always invite the whole school. I didn't really care for their parties, there were always too many people. I was just about to ask Isabella what time it was when I saw a flash in the corner of my eye. Robin ran up next to Isabella and put his hands over her eyes.

"Guess who it is!?" He said happily. Isabella grinned wildly. I felt a pang of jealousy. I wish I had a playful happy relationship.

"Good guess!" Robin states as he grabbed her and pulled her into a kiss. I rolled my eyes as they locked lips against a locker. Robin and Isabella had been dating for two years, and were perfect together. They had such chemistry, unlike Aaron and I. I had nothing against Aaron, but I felt numb around him, no butterflies or anything. I feel like I'm being selfish or greedy sometimes, I have so many things, but I want more, but what more do I want? I kept walking down the hallway as they giggled and mumbled to each other. I was going to be late for class.
