Chapter 16
I hummed as I passed through the hallway smiling. I did a little spin before I continued walking. People
stared at me with confused expressions, some were whispering but I didn't care at all.
I stopped at my locker and brought out my books.
''Hey''
I turned to my right, it was Jake
''Hello" I said "Lovely day, isn't it''
He chuckled
''You're in a good mood'
''Isn't it obvious?''
''Tell me, what's the secret''
''Yeah what is the secret?'' A voice asked
It was Rachel and her train. I groaned and closed my locker
''What do you want now?'' I asked
''Nothing. I just wanna know what could possibly make my sister happy. I want some of it too''
''I would love to stay here but Jake and I have to get to class''
''Who's...''
She looked at him
''Oh the cute new boy''
Before she could continue I dragged him till we reached our first class. We sat down at the front row
''What was that all about?'' he asked
''It's complicated trust me''
''So she's your sister''
''Yeah''
''You two seem very...''
''Different?''
''Yes that's it''
''I know''
A girl entered the classroom holding a piece of paper
''Carla?'' she called
Me? Why is she calling me name? I don't even know her.
''yes'' I replied
She walked over to me and handed me the piece of paper
''What's this?'' I asked
''A letter''
''From?''
''You'll see''
She smiled at me then left. I opened the letter
To the most beautiful girl in the world
I just want you to know that you're on my mind. I'm going to going to try everything in my power to
make sure I'm the mate you've always dreamed of. I know it'll be hard to forgive me considering all the
things I've done to you but just make a space in your heart to. I love you
From Damien
''Aww'' I said as I folded it and put it into my bag Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.
''Guess you're in good terms with your boyfriend now, huh?''
I was so into the note that I forgot about Jake
''Yeah''
''So that means we can't go to prom together anymore?''
''He doesn't even know about it''
''You haven't told him?''
''No but I will''
''oh''
His face dropped
"Tell you what , how bout I ask him. If he says no we can go together as friends"
He slammed his fists on the table. Everyone's eyes were on us
''What does that make me? A rebound?''
''No. I didn't mean it that way''
''I will not play a second fiddle to anyone Carla''
He got up and left banging the door behind him
********
I was walking down the corridor using my eyes to search for Jake. I didn't see him in any other class
and School was over
''Carla wait up''
I knew who it was
''Just leave me alone'' I said trying to pretend that I didn't care
I continued until he grabbed my hand and pulled me back
''Please wait''
''What do you want?''
''I'm sorry for the way I acted in class''
I sighed
''Okay I forgive you''
''Thank you''
''You're welcome but I don't get why you went off like that''
'Its because i..I know we haven't known each other long but I... "
Arms wrapped around my waist. From the scent I knew it was Damien
''Hey you'' I said
''Hi''
He pecked me from behind
''Hello..Carla's friend'' Damien said
I rolled my eyes. Could Damien get anymore petty?
''The name's Jake''
''So you aren't Carla's friend anymore?''
Uh oh. I quickly interfered
''Its time for us to go . I'll see you tomorrow Jake''
''Alright see you''
We walked outside to the parking lot. Jake was still standing there but I paid it no mind
''What are you doing here?''
We stopped at his car
''I'm picking my mate up from school''
''Say it again'' I whispered
''Say what?''
''The word''
''My mate''
He used his hands to twirl my hair
''Damn,you're beautiful''
He trapped me in between the car and his body
''I've been such a fool. I'm so sorry. I was afraid you'll hurt me so I didn't want to put my guard down but
I don't care anymore. All I want is you''
I became speechless....literally
''You aren't saying anything''
''I don't know what to say''
He picked my hand and kissed it. The electricity pulsed through my veins
''I just hope you can forgive me. Did you get my letter?''
I grinned widely
''Yes''
''Good. I meant everything I wrote in there''
He opened the door for me to get in which I did. He went to the other side and did the same
A few seconds later we were on our way
''So how was school?''
''School was great, your day?''
''Wasn't complete, but it is now''
''How so?''
''You weren't with me''
''oh''
''Any ideas on what to do when we get home?''
''No, do you have any?''
He smirked
''I know just the thing''
