Chereads / I am the Alpha’s Tomboy / Chapter 5 - Arm Candy

Chapter 5 - Arm Candy

When we got back everyone was in the dining hall getting ready to eat "OH MY LIL SAPPHIRE AND JAMES!"

I look over and I see luna Bella and my mom and Charlotte- Charlotte is James's mother, she is a single mother. James's father died in a pack fight almost 12 years ago, he doesn't have many memories of his father though. -coming towards us "Hi ma, hi luna, hi Charlotte. What are you three up to? You never call me Lil sapphire unless your up to something..."

They looked at each other and smiled then my mom spoke up "What we cant say hi?"

I roll my eyes "You can but if you were saying hi you would have said hi to Wyatt too... so what are you three up to?"

Then James and I crossed our arms and rose an eyebrow at them. Luna looked at my mom and Charlotte and chuckled "You know darlings she's getting smarter every time"

Charlotte smiled "Yea I guess that means we have to spill our plans, we should start sneaking around more often when it comes to this."

They started to grin and then alpha Charlie came over "I'm sorry sapphire your dad and I tried to stop them but they kept planning EVERY single detail..."

I sighed and shook my head, why am I not surprised... I mean they do this every year. "We decided that we don't want to do anything for our birthday the only thing we are doing is camping out at the waterfall with Wy."

The three of them looked at each other very devilish "Listen, Sapphire, you two are having a party and that is final, why can't you be like the boys and just let us plan to our heart's content."

I gave them the 'really' look "Because I know you three you do this every year... its bad just having ma and luna plan parties for holidays but when you add you too then it's even worse... no wait never mind whats the worse of all is when all four of you plan a party together... I can barely handle just three but once you add a forth I need someone else's help." 7 years ago James, Wyatt, and I were turning 10, and so we had a triple birthday instead of a double... I never want to do that again all three moms plus luna, it gives me a headache just thinking about it... it was a cowboy, princess, alien on mars birthday party... I wanted the cowboy with James but my mother thought it wasn't girly enough. The boys wouldn't even help me try to get them to calm down with the decorations so I lost and they overdid it and ever since then I've been monitoring every single time it's around a time that they would want a party.

"Look I will choose the theme but I'm limiting your space this year so don't overdo it like last year, and dad and Alpha Charlie WILL help this year, but you must promise that we can go and set up for the camping trip and then leave two hours earlier than when you normally stop that way you cant use the excuse of it being too late... do we have a deal." Father and Alpha Charlie were going to protest about helping to keep them at bay, but after I shot them a glare they nodded their heads.

All they have to do is make sure that they don't overdo it again but knowing them they'll get distracted so the three of them get what they want. "Don't worry, the boys are the ones that are setting up camp so I get to make sure you two dong get distracted." I eyed them closely because they know that it always happens and I can tell they know because the looked away shyly.

For a whole month, they have been planning this party they kept changing the theme from a masquerade ball to royalties in Hollywood (I don't understand the last one either) and they decided just tonight a week before our party. "So saph I hear that Landon and you are co-captain of the new co-ed team for next year."

I look at Alpha Charlie "yea, sadly..."

"Oh, Wyatt before I forget, can you be sapphires escort for the ball?"

When my mother said that Landon almost spit out his drink which made everyone look at him. "Dude, are you ok?"

Lee gave Landon a worried look "Yea the water just went down the wrong hole." Everyone chuckles and then goes back to their conversations.

Then Charlotte started to talk to James "James dear, I've decided that this year you can choose whether or not to walk down with someone... if you do choose to walk with someone you will have to waltz and I know how much you hate dancing so that's why this year I'm giving you a choice... although I do know a very nice young lady that is a very good dancer who has been dying to meet you, and hey for all you know she could be your mate." This time it was Lee that almost spit out his drink. What is up with these two today.

Landon looked at my brother with concern. "Hey, are you ok?"

After a coughing fit, he nodded his head "Yea, uh- the drink was just hot...." he said and then cleared his throat. Landon looked at him cautiously and then mumbled 'ok', my guess is because Lee is currently drinking ice cold water.

"Anyway... I want to come down the stairs... by myself that way all eyes are on me... at least until the lovely Ms. Sapphire comes down looking even more fabulous as ever with Wyatt on her arm." he said as he pointed to me

Then Wyatt which caused him to glare at James which made him smirk. "Why did you make it sound like I'm her arm candy."

Just then James slowly pushed back his chair and Wyatt doing the same thing but slower... waiting for James's answer. "Because you are... for this event only."

he gave him an 'I'm sorry?' look but it was too late Wyatt already pushed back his chair to run after him. After about 15 rounds around the table -which is very long- they finally stopped facing each other on opposite sides of the table waiting for the other to pick which side to run to. Both are starting to breathe heavily... finally I mean we all could have stopped this earlier but we all found this amusing so we all decided to let them go... even Alpha Charlie was laughing. "Look, I don't mind being complimented that I'm sexy but I am not arm candy."

James smirked but before he could answer Alpha Charlie cleared his throat which caused all of us to look at him. though he had an amused look on his face he nodded towards their chairs and they went to their chairs... slowly but they did. "Well, that's one way to get good entertainment at the dinner table, normally we would wait for Landon and Saphire to disagree on something... now you two eat and go bathe I can smell you from here. and deal with this outside I done want anything broke." and with that, we finished dinner as normal.

The day has come... my birthday and not just any birthday it's the birthday I turn 17 which means I will find out who my mate is. Thankfully today is a Saturday which means I don't have to go to school. When I hear my alarm go off I groan and throw it across the room. "Hey! Watch where you throw that thing."

I groan once again and sat up "Landon if I wanted to hear your voice so early in the morning I would come to see you myself. Now, what do you want"

I turned towards Landon and my heart skipped a beat... please tell me he isn't my mate 'you bet he is my Lil saph.' I groaned at my wolf this is not my day. "Whoa, looks like someone got up on the wrong side of the bed."

I glared at him "Will you please leave." and then fully turned forward again when I looked back up at him I saw him looking at me, then I realized I was only wearing a sports bar and shorts.

I rubbed my temples and groaned... today is such a headache "Will you just leave, you perv."

He shook his head like he was getting out of a trance. "Uh, yea I came up to tell you Lee made his famous french toast and if you don't hurry I'll steal them again."

I took my pillow and threw it at him which hits him in the face "Don't you dare! Now get out."

He puts his hands up in surrender "Alright, alright I have to go wake up the birthday boy to since he won't be here tomorrow morning." and with that, he leaves, then I get up and take a shower. When I get out I put my hair in a side braid I then put on my maroon shirt with light blue ripped jeans with my white Chuck Taylors. I put on some mascara and eyeliner.

When I opened my door I could smell the French toast. I picked up my step and was basically running down the stairs. "Whoa, birthday girl slow down you might hurt someone."

I looked at Alec but there was no jump like there used to be... "Sorry I can smell Lees French toast and I got excited. I don't want what happened last time to happen again."

Alec chuckled "Yea... well at least let me walk you there m'lady."

He held out his hand while bowing and I curtsied in return "Why thank you, kind sir" I took his hand and we walked down the stairs.

When we walked into the kitchen I saw Landon eating French toast "That better not be mine..."

He looks up from his phone and smirked "I don't know is it"

Lee shook his head "No yours is on the table"

Landon looked over at Lee with a disappointed look "You ruined my fun..."

Lee chuckled and then turned around and looked him in the eyes with a smirk on his face "So you're saying you like antagonizing her?"

"Yea.." my heart skipped a beat, I don't know why... to be honest, I'm not sure of anything anymore.

He said looking from Lee to me with a smirk on his face. "I have to spend my free time somehow."

I glared at him and then flipped him off "You're a butt you know that right"

His smirk grows wider "And you like this butt so ha!"

I could feel my cheeks grow red but I turned my head so I did not give hints so I scoffed "Yeah right like I told you, I will never like you".

I saw a flash of sadness in Landon's eyes which crushed my heart for a second, and then he smirks. "So sapphire did you find out who your mate is yet?"

I shrugged at Lee's question and then smirked. "Maybe I have, maybe I haven't"

"Booooo please tell me you aren't going love him more then meeeeeee!!!" suddenly I had arms around me.

I chuckled and stared at Landon for a moment then stared back at Wyatt. "Trust me I won't fall for him..."

I heard a scoff and then I heard Lee mumble "For now..."

I looked at Wyatt "You ready for tonight?"

He nods holding up his tent "Of course I am"

Then he held out his hand for me to grab. "Come on let's go to the waterfall before we get tied up in decorating!"
