Chapter 4 - Eventful

Amelia

It was hard to focus with him brushing his leg ever so often against my leg but I still finish the test with ten minutes to spear. Nat was also finished with his test as he smiles at me longingly. I couldn't help but smile in return, it was contagious. The bell rang and it's finally fifth period, lunchtime. Nat asks for me to wait for him outside the classroom while he submits a document to the teacher. "Hi, Maya". "Amelia, hi boo; where were you this morning"? " I went to my safe place". "Why"? "Cassie hit me in front of everyone this morning and had her friends read my diary out loud". "It was so embarrassing, I couldn't even think straight so I ran". "Cassie did what to you, I am going to exchange a few words with her". "Maya please don't, I think Nat already did enough to her". "Nat did something to her, wait this reminds me how come Nat was with you this morning". "He saw what Cassie did to me this morning, apparently he confronted her then came running after me". "Ok, now explain to me how come you are wearing his jacket and his arms wear around you when you enter class". "I figure it must be because my dress was still damp and I was feeling cold". "HAHAHA, or maybe he likes you". "WHAT, have you gone mad"? "What Amelia, it could be a possibility". "That is impossible, there is no way he likes me". "Look at me, I am considered the freak of the pack". "They are just jealous of your beauty, and also pick on you because of your lack of strength". I felt sad that I didn't tell her I am a hybrid but I am just as clues to what really I am. I train in secret with my dad and the Alpha King but show no signs of powers or any ability to be a hybrid. I really do like Nat, and that's why she is making a big deal about the things he normally doesn't do but he did with me today.

BANG, this noise brought me out of my thoughts and there is a very pissed-off Cassie looking at me. "Amelia what a thief, you stole Nathaniel's jacket". "NO, I did not". "Then how came you are wearing his jacket"? "He put it on me to wear". "You expect me to believe that Nathaniel who doesn't allow anyone but his mother and sister wear his clothes but his jacket on you to wear". "And why can't you believe her," Nat said as he came out of the classroom. "Nathaniel, come on she had to force you to give it to her". "No, she did not". He places his arms around me as he said the next words, "I put it on her myself so what is the problem". "But you don't treat anyone other than your mother and sister that why". "That is true, well I guess Amelia is also very important to me". I was shocked. Cassie holds his hand, "I can also be very important to you". he pulled his hand away from her, "I am sorry Cassie but that is never happening". "Come on Amelia, let us go to lunch". Cassie looks at him bewildered. He pulled me forward to walk with him as I heard John talk to Maya. "Maya would you have lunch with me". "John, you want me too"? "Yes, I would love for you to eat lunch with me today". "Don't worry we can be at the same table as Amelia and Nat but you sit with me, is that ok with you"? "Yes, that finds". Wow, that is new. What is going on with Nat and John today?

Nathaniel

I had Amelia wait for me outside because I had to submit my work to the teacher. John stopped me, "What is going on with you and Amelia"? "What are you talking about"? "I am talking about the fact she is wearing your jacket, you had your arms around her, and you had me move for her to sit with you". "Oh, I don't know how to explain it". "My wolf is very possessive and protective towards her that it is hard to control him". I even think of her as my mate when I was with her in the forest". "In the forest, what were you two doing in the forest"? "Cassie hit her this morning and bulling her and she ran away into the woods and I followed her". "Oh ok, I understand now". "But the possessiveness and protectiveness sound off". "Is she your mate"? "I do not know honestly, I just have to wait a month from now she turns eighteen and we will know then". "we have to ask the pack doctor this afternoon because I am experiencing something similar". "What are you talking about"? "When Maya sit next to me today, I give her one of my pens to write with since hers stop working". "I felt sparks all the way up my arm from a slight skin to skin contact". "OMG, is she your mate, John". "I don't know but if I remember correctly she will turn eighteen in the next two weeks". "So, I will find out soon enough".

We walk out of the classroom to find Cassie harassing Amelia again. I heard what she said and couldn't stop myself from defining Amelia. "And why can't you believe her". Cassie look stunned to see me but schooled her expression well. "Nathaniel, come on she had to force you to give it to her". "No, she did not".I place my arms around Amelia as I said, "I put it on her myself so what is the problem". "But you don't treat anyone other than your mother and sister that why". "That is true, well I guess Amelia is also very important to me". I felt proud saying that, like I was staking my claim. Cassie holds his hand, "I can also be very important to you". Her hand felt cold and I didn't want anything to do with her. I want to go to lunch with Amelia so I end my conversation with Cassie and walk away with Amelia. Yes, I do believe she is mine, I truly believe she is my mate. I heard John ask Maya to lunch also, I believe he feels the same way to Maya.
