people, I can’t explain what I felt but it wasn’t normal especially when they walked closer to me and every time someone walked close I felt different. It was weird but it didn’t creep me out, I just couldn’t understand what that feeling was.

As I kept feeling it I became over whelmed with it so I rushed to my car so that I wouldn’t freak out in front of everyone. When I got to my car I shut the door and willed myself to come down. After some time I eventually managed to turn my senses to normal again, honestly I wasn’t sure if I turn them to become normal again or they became normal on their own.

I was shocked when I heard the car door opened because I was so wrapped in the changes that I didn’t realize how much time had passed.

“Hi,” Ashley greeted,

“Hi.” I responded while adjusting myself to look normal.

“Are you okay?” she asked, but suddenly changed the question, “did you dye your hair?” she looked at my hair curiously,

“What?” quickly I adjusted the rear view mirror my way, and she was right my hair used to be blondish brown but there were completely brown now, worse dark brown almost black; so not me. “I didn’t they weren’t like this earlier.” I wondered while staring at myself in the mirror. And strangely I expected to see maybe more hair growing on my face and my ears getting pointy, or something.

“Are you okay?” Ashley asked again, with that familiar worried look on her face.

“Yah,” quickly I snapped out of my stupor and put the mirror right the way it was supposed to be, “I’m fine, I’m just surprised that’s all.”

“Okay.” She said shortly. It was weird how she never asked questions like she used to. She just dropped the subject and kept doing whatever she was doing. I was thankful for it though, at least I didn’t have to come up with lies anymore.

I switched the car on and we went home. While I was in complete shock because I didn’t know what to expect in my life anymore. I mean I could sleep with blonde hair and then wake up with dark brown hair out of nowhere. And still what was happening to my body.

A week passed and I was starting to get hold of all the changes that were happening to me and my life. I was becoming stronger and faster and I wasn’t even trying to, it just happened. All my senses were heightened more than I’d ever wish.

If I were to take a quick guess I would’ve probably decide that I was turning to a werewolf or vampire because something exactly like that happens to them when they turn. I was just waiting to get that urge for raw meat or blood. Thinking about those stuff made me flinch and brush off the thoughts.

I was in class, chemistry lab and Alex as usual was by my side looking at me speculatively. The teacher was up front talking about something, elements I think. I couldn’t take the look anymore so I asked,

“What?” quietly.

“You avoided me the whole week last week.” For the first time I saw her angry at me, “Are you planning to do the same this week?”

“I wasn’t avoiding you.” But she called my bluff,

“Come on, who are you kidding? Just cut the crap okay. I want you at my house tonight, my dad and the other will be out hunting across the state I want to do something with you.” She commanded.

“Mr. Adams I would like you and your partner to pay attention please. I see no activity at your table.” Mr. Novinsky said from up front. Looking around people were doing experiment, thankfully the test was written on the board so Alex and I had to take materials and start our experiment as well.

“No excuses, make sure you’ll be there seven o’clock sharp.” She commanded.

She was a little harsher than her usual attitude; I took it she wasn’t very happy with me dodging her for a whole week.

By lunch time I had a surprise, I saw Layla walking to the cafeteria with books in her hands. She didn’t see me because I was the one sitting right at the corner of the cafeteria. While her on the other hand seated with the cool kids including Bratt’s gang. I wasn’t very happy about that, I knew I shouldn’t have anything to do with her for her safety but I didn’t want her to be friend with that jerk either.

My view was interrupted when Alex dropped on my chair loudly her mood completely changed from earlier. She dropped her plate as well, it was full. I didn’t know girls could eat like that, Ashley was constantly whining about getting fat made me mistakenly think that all girls were like her. But Alex didn’t seem to care, she filled her mouth with food and liked her fingers because she didn’t use the spoon or the fork, she just shoved the burger in her mouth with her hands.

“Hey, I saw Layla.” She talked with her mouth full of burgers and fries.

“Yah, me too. Right behind you.”

“You mean right here?”

“On the other side of the cafeteria. Together with Bratt.”

“Oh, with that douchebag.” She turned a peeked at them, “you don’t think they are together, do you?”

“I don’t know and I don’t care.” I tried to cover my irritation. It was irritating seeing them sit side by side while talking and occasional laughter. And seeing Bratt eyeing her and see her blush, I couldn’t help but be annoyed with it.

I knew that jerk didn’t deserve her, I would’ve been okay her to be okay with anybody else but him.

“Hey, calm down.” Alex called,

Suddenly, I realized my hands were balled to a fist and I was stiff as a rock. I took deep breathes and headed to my art class.

“Class this is Layla Parker, she will be attending class with you.” The teacher introduced her right after the class started.

“Hey,” she came to sit next to me.

I was still feeling a little bit awkward after seeing her with Bratt earlier, so I responded reluctantly, “Hey,” and I didn’t bother looking at her.

The teacher started the lesson about portrait and for the rest of it I tried not to look at her. I didn’t want to act like everything was okay while I was still angry that she chose to be friends with Bratt. And soon after it was over I got out of there and rushed to the parking. I could feel her however, running after me couple feet away.

“Steven,” she called out when we were at the parking lot.

I didn’t answer I kept going for my car, “Steven, please wait.” She called again.

I stopped and waited for her and when I turned to look at her she was worried and confused, “why are you angry at me? I don’t remember offending you or anything.”

I didn’t answer I just turned and kept walking to Amy car which was about three feet away.

“Steven, talk to me. What did I do wrong?” she pulled me by the arm and looked straight in the eyes.

“I saw you with him.” I blurted,

“Who are you talking about?” her face wrinkled with more confusion.

“I saw you with Bratt, you were talking to…. you were sitting and laughing with him.” I spit the words like they disgusted me.

“He asked me to sit with him and he was nice to me that’s why….” I cut her short,

“Bratt I never nice to anyone.” I almost shrieked.

“It’s clearly you have issues with him but I didn’t think it is right for you to get angry at me because of it.” She calmly,

“Yah, you are right, I shouldn’t get angry at you. I’m sorry, but I got to go.” I got inside my car and didn’t look outside because I didn’t want to see her hurt face.

Seconds later the passenger door was opened and I snapped my head towards it thinking it was her getting in. But it was Ashley with that curious look on her face,

“Hey, was that the girl who came home the other day? What happened? She didn’t seem very happy. Did you guys fight or something?” then she waited for an answer turning completely towards me.

“Yes, she wants to be friends with Bratt.” With that one sentence she understood.

“Oh,” that’s all she said.

I wasn’t surprised she didn’t say much. The whole school knew how much Bratt hated me and I hated him as much.

 

 

 

 

 

CHAPTER 36;

 

 

I know almost everyone hated me but Bratt definitely hated me more. And the fact that Layla was willing to even consider being friend with him got me angry even more.

I was driving on our way home with Ashley playing with her phone, which was something she did a lot lately. It’s not like when she used to worry about me all the time, even though I knew she was giving me more space and that she was safer that way. I still missed those times I used to tell her all my worries, it used to help with my anxiety.

That led me to think about Alex and her command to go to her house in the evening. At least I knew asking mom won’t be a problem since she decided to give us more freedom. We could go out as long as we are back before ten o’clock. My worry was what she was going to show me this time.

 

****

 

We got home we had dinner and I told mom that I had to go out, and without second thought she allowed me to go but to remember curfew. Ashley was left home since it was the middle of the week there was nothing exciting out in the world.

I drove slowly heading to the out skirts of town while growing anxious with every second I got closer to her house. It’s not that I didn’t trust her, I didn’t trust me and what I would do after getting there. Before I could even get my thoughts straight I was on the driveway to her house and soon enough I was parking in front of her house.

I thought Alex was going to be the one inviting me in but to my surprise her hot but weird cousin came out.

“Hey handsome.” She greeted me with her sexy voice, my eyes shot right to her legs and the sexy short skirt she was wearing and unintentionally to her boobs which were squeezed together with a loose blouse and almost piping out bra. I sound like a pervert, but I couldn’t help it, this girl did things to me I couldn’t understand.

“Hi,” I said with an almost dry throat after I got my thoughts together.

Before she could say anything Alex came out of the house in a rush, “you finally came. Come on we are going on a hunt today.” She said and I got completely disoriented. “Bye Iris, we’ll be back in a bit.” She pulled me back by my arm. Iris wasn’t very pleased as much as I was but with different reasons.

I got in my car and started it then waited for her instructions. Since she said hunt and she was a hunter I expected her
