Rory's POV
Today is my first day of school and I was a bit scared and a bit excited at the same time. I mean, I love school but starting a new school is different. It's a new environment, new people, overall, everything is new and foreign to me. I silently prayed to the Moon Goddess that everything goes well.
Angel and I were on our way to school, she and I were having the fun of our lives at the expense of her mate, who I am yet to meet but I am going to meet him and his friends soon. Angel has been ignoring him before she went to New York and he was really pissed and has been blowing her phone up; multiple messages, phone call even emails. Yes, it went that far, but Angel has choose to ignore him because she low key thought it was fun and she majorly just wanted to punish him for laying his hands on her. I thinks he deserves it. Payback is a bitch.
My mind drifted to my fallen home, I wish everything was the way it was, I wish Ryker never attacked but I have to accept what has happened and try to move on. I quickly cleared my head as we drove into the school compound, I saw heads turn towards our car as Angel drove in to park. I saw curious eyes; trying to figure out who was in the car but they couldn't know because the windows of the car were tinted, the Mills have a thing for tinted windows. They loved the mystery and the curious faces people get when they see a car with tinted windows.
Mama Rose said it spiked their curiosity and they always want to know who is inside the car, so they focus their attention on the car, just sap they can figure out the occupants and she wasn't wrong, I mean, they are still looking at our car as it rode further into the parking lot. Angel parked the car beside her friends' cars, where they were waiting for her; if you are curious as to how I know what they look like, she showed me theirs pictures back in New York. After, Angel parked the car, her mate we to her side of the car, getting quite impatient, to the extent that he even knocked the window but Angel took her time intentionally pissing him off like retouching her makeup and styling her hair in a low bun which made us laugh while we sipped on our coffee. I saw her friends laughing at the situation.
"Why are you torturing him further" I said smiling with my cup to my lips.
"It's fun to see him riled up and sexy too" Angel said grabbing her phone with her coffee in hand.
"Come let me introduce you to the crew" she said getting out of the car while I got out to just to be hit in the face by the most mesmerizing and delicious scent ever. My wolf went crazy in my head instantly screaming the one word, I never expected to hear today.
'Mate. Mate. Mate. Mate. Mate." Azura( my wolf) said over and over again like a chant. I heard a growl come from a guy. My eyes quickly found his which made my wolf go even crazier chanting 'mate' over and over again. From the corner of my eye, I saw Angel come to my side with urgency in her steps.
"Mate" the guy said just as Angel got to me and I released a sigh, while Angel turned her head to the voice and her eyes widen in shock. The guy immediately came to my front, grabbed my neck and grabbed my lips with his in urgency which made me melt in his arms. I heard multiple gasps around us but I didn't care, we didn't care. I felt him lift me up and I quickly wrapped my legs around his waist as he gently pushed me against our car with one of his hands in my hair. We continued our make-out session while drowning out the voices around us. My hand wondered around his broad shoulders, familiarizing myself with everything inch of his body I could touch right now.
"Hello" I heard a voice say fainting.
"Hey" I heard again
"Hey. Guys" I heard again. I swear the disturbance was getting annoying.
"Get the fuck off my car" I heard Angel shouted which made me pull away from my mate whose name am yet to know. I quickly got off as soon as it register in my head that we were in the middle of the parking lot in school.
"Could you carry your make out session somewhere else and leave my baby(car) out of it" Angel said with her mate's hands wrapped around her.
"Sorry Angel" I said not really knowing what to say.
"What's your name gorgeous" my mate asked wrapping his arms around me which made me turn to him.
"Aurora Mills. What's yours" I asked biting my lips softly.
"Aiden Storm, beta of Blue Moon pack" he said with pride which made my wolf happy because our mate is an high ranking wolf not that we cared though. We would have loved our mate even if he was an omega. I never cared about ranks, I believe everyone is equal.
"You look so beautiful. Like an angel. I have been waiting for you all my life" Aiden said rubbing my cheek softly while smiling at me.
"You just turned eighteen a couple of months ago" I heard another of Angel's friend say laughing at him. I think her name is Andy. Andrea if I remember correctly.
"Well, I know that. But I have been anticipating this moment since I first learned about mates which was years ago" Aiden said sticking his tongue at her which made me smile at their playful batter.
"Hi, am Andy, Andrea Storm. This idiot's twin. Welcome to the family" she said pulling away from Aiden arms into a hug which caught me off guard for a moment before I relaxed and hugged her back. I pulled back and stepped back into my mate's arms and I relaxed in his embrace.
"This is my mate, Mason Grey, gamma" Andy introduced smiling at me while pointing to the guy behind her and he waved at me smiling as he pulled Andy back into his arms.
"And this is my mate, Jason Manchester, Alpha. You already knew that though" Angel said introducing her mate to me but he wasn't focused on me because his head was buried in Angel's neck which made me smile. When Angel noticed he wasn't paying attention, she slapped his side slightly which made him look at her in confusion.
"Why did you do that" he said pouting which made all of us laugh including Angel.
"I was introducing you to my sister, Aurora " she said shaking her head at him.
"Oh sorry. Hi, nice to meet you" he said sticking his hand out for an handshake which I shook.
"Did you say sister" Aiden my handsome mate asked confused.
"Yes she did. Angel is a distant family member. My mom and dad recently died in an accident so my family was contacted which was the Mills so Mama Rose thought it would be best to adopt me. So yes, sister" I explained softly feeling sad as memories crept in. Angel rubbed my shoulder softly while the gang gave their condolences.
"Well this morning has been full of shocking discovery" Angel said running her hand through her hair. Just then, the warning bell rang which Angel and I rushed back to our car and we quickly grabbed our backpacks, Angel locked the car and we joined the rest of the crew and made our way into the school building. Angel, Andy and I quickly went to the principal's office to grab my schedule while the guys waited for us by their lockers. When we got the schedule, we looked through it and saw I had the same classes with Angel and Andy which was cool because I wouldn't be alone in this new school. We quickly joined the guys before we all went to our first class of the day which was English.
Class was fun, I really enjoyed the lesson but I was getting distracted by Aiden every once in a while which was fun and also annoying because I needed to ace this class and Aiden was very distracting. After first period, Angel, Andy and I went to our second class which we didn't have with the guys and that made my wolf and I sad because we didn't want to be away from our mate for too long.
Lunch time..........
When it was time for lunch, Angel, Andy and I went to McDonald's to grab some lunch for the crew, apparently cafeteria food was garbage and they didn't like it. We rode in our car to McDonald's and Angel parked the car before we got out.
"Damn, I'm so hungry. I can't wait to taste that juicy burger" I said mentally envisioning that moment as we walked into the diner.
"Take it easy babygirl" Andy said as she and Angel laughter at me which made me laugh too. Andy and I took a seat at a booth while Angel went to the counter to order our food, when a waiter came to our table to take our order which Angel was already giving, Andy and I decided to order some drinks for the three of us as we wait. By the time Angel got to the booth, the drinks was just arriving, Angel to a seat and we all sat there enjoying our refreshments as Andy and Angel told a story about their encounter with some boys here in McDonald's.
When the food was ready Angel's number was called and she went to the counter to pick it up, while Andy and I called for the cheque for our drinks and paid. We got up from the booth and walked towards the exit where we met Angel and we all walked out to the car, we got inside the car and were off back to school. When we got to school Angel parked the car and we grabbed our food, got down from the car and went into the school building towards the cafeteria where the boys where waiting for us. Getting to the cafeteria, we got to our lunch table and set the to-go bags on the table. We took our seats beside our mates and dug in filling our stomach.
After school......
After school was done for the day, Angel and I went home feeling slight exhausted but we had to go shop for some electronics and furniture to help fix up my room to my heart's content. On our way home, Angel and I jammed to a few of our favorite songs, that helped us get rid of the exhaustion we were feeling slightly.
Few minutes later, Angel drove into the compound and parked the car up front. We got done, grabbed our bags, unlocked the front door and went inside the house. We went to the kitchen first and for some refreshments after that we went to our rooms to freshen up. When I got to my room, I dropped my school bag on my bed before going into the bathroom. I removed all my clothes and threw them in the hamper for washing, removed my makeup before getting into the bathroom and washed off today's stress.
After my shower, I dried up and wrapped myself in my in my towel, I walked pass my room into my closet to get ready. When I was moisturizing my body, I heard my bedroom door open and I stretched my head out to see Angel coming into my room, dressed in her bath robe with damp hair.
"Hey, could you please borrow me your blow dryer. I accidentally got my hair wet and my blow dryer isn't working" she said walking into my closet.
"It's over there at the corner" I said pointing to the right side of my closet where I place the blow dryer this morning.
"Oh, thank you. You're a lifesaver" Angel said letting out a sigh of relief while picking up the blow dryer before walking out of my room to hers.
After I was done with moisturizing my body, I searched my clothes looking for my outfit of the day which was proving to be a problem but after a couple of minutes, though am not really sure how long, I finally settled for something good and stylish.
When I was done with getting ready, I decided to let my skin breath and skipping on makeup entirely. I settled for some lip oil to moisturize my lips, then I put my hair up in a low bun. After that i grabbed a small bag where I put my phone, lip oil, credit card and some cash before leaving my room to the kitchen to have a snack before actual lunch.
When I got to the kitchen, I settled for an apple as my snack while waiting for Angel. Half way through my apple, Angel walked into the kitchen look so cute in her outfit.
"Hey, throw me an apple" Angel said dropping her handbag on the kitchen counter. I grabbed an apple from the fruit bowl, washed it and tossed it at her which she caught perfectly before she started eating.
When we were done eating, we used some water to wash it down before leaving the house for Walmart for shopping. Getting there, Angel parked the car, we got out and walked to the entrance, we each grabbed a cart and started shopping. I needed some bedsheets, duvets, towels, rugs for my room, extra pillows, a bean bag or a chair, a vanity set, a TV and some other stuff.
I grabbed a lot of stuff that I needed at least the this I could fit into my cart, when my cart was full, during my shopping Angel joined me when I was picking some bedsheets because she wanted those too. We also picked some scented candles, fairy lights and other things that dazzled us. We decided that it will be better to order the bigger stuff online before went to checkout. After we paid for stuff, we grabbed our shopping bags, placed them in bigger carts and rolled it out to the car, we loaded the bags in the trunk and does that we couldn't fit in the trunk went to the back seat. Angel dropped the cart back while I waited in the car. Less than three minutes later, Angel got into the car and she drove taking us home.
When we got home, Angel parked the car in the garage and we started offloading the shopping bags from the car to the house. It took us about three trips from the car to the house to get everything inside. We placed everything in a corner in the living room because we weren't decorating today. We decided that it will be better to start the redecorating project on Saturday through to Sunday before we had school tomorrow Friday and we didn't want to be too exhausted tomorrow. I pulled out my phone from my bag, turned it on and saw that it was 7;28pm dinner time. I gently tapped Angel who was laying beside me on the floor in the living where we crashed because we were tired.
"Angel, what is for dinner" I asked gazing up at the chandelier.
"I was just picturing some homemade pasta and fried chicken" she said in a leisurely.
"Ohh, that sounds delicious. I can taste it already" I said licking lips with a grin on my face.
"I know right" Angel said as her stomach growled which made us burst into a fit of giggles.
"Just one question though" I said turned my head towards as she did the same.
"What is it" she asked furrowing her brows.
"Who is cooking" I asked raising a brow at her.
"You of course" she said shrugging her shoulders.
"What" I said as my eyes widened and I poured at her.
"Who do you think was going to cook anyway. I brought the idea for dinner. You cook the idea I brought for dinner. Simple. Easy. Period." She said mocking me.
"Fine. But if am cook, am going to need a sous-chef" I asked smiling at her.
"Ugh, fine. I will be your sous-chef" she said as we both got up from the floor and went to the kitchen to get started on dinner. I grabbed the utensils we needed while Angel grabbed the ingredients. I worked on the pasta while Angel worked on the fried chicken because she wanted to use a recipe she learned when she paid a visit to Nigeria and I would be tasting for me first time so I was excited. During the process of making dinner, I left Angel in charge and quickly went to my room to freshen up and wore my pajamas. I went back to the kitchen and took off dinner while Angel went to freshen up as well.
When the food was ready, Angel and I served ourselves a plate each and some white wine to go with it. We grabbed our food and put glass of wine and went to the living room because we decided to watch a movie while eating dinner. We placed the food on the center table, we quickly went upstairs, grabbed a lot of blankets and pillows and set up the living room the way we wanted it before getting settled.
"Pick a movie" Angel said to me while plugging our phones to charge while I logged into her Netflix account.
"What do you think about 'a perfect pairing'" I asked while looking for the movie.
"Isn't that the movie that Victoria Justice recent movie" she asked and she got comfy beside me.
"Yes it is" I replied when I got found the movie.
"Let's watch it. I haven't seen it yet" she said tucking a piece of hair behind her ear.
I played the movie and placed the remote beside me before we devoured our dinner which tasted delicious and the chicken was exquisite. I definitely need to learn this recipe. After dinner, we took our dirty dishes and place them in the dishwasher and washed them along with the others there, when that was done, we dried the plates and others and kept the in their rightful spot. We drank some water before going back to the living to continue our movie while we ordered the some furniture that I needed online and Angel also bought a few things too. After shopping online, we watched more movies before we fell asleep.
