Matt wasnt waiting long before Niki arrived, walking out the wooden door to the school. The parking lot had filled up a lot more since they had gotten there earlier that morning, students were arriving and talking amongst themselves and their friends. Matt stood by his car, parked close to the front doors when he saw Niki approaching.Matt was pacing up and down beside his car, anxiety flowing through his veins, running his hand through his hair a couple of times he was thinking how he was going to tell her and ask her the things he wanted to ask. His nerves grew as she got closer, her hands tucked into the pockets of her tight fitting jeans.Matt knew she wouldn't like what he had to say, probably wouldn't even want to hear it, especially with her dislike on the situation, so he hoped and prayed she would be understanding enough to take what he had to say to consideration.“Hey, what do you need,” She asked, stopping a few feet in front of Matt.“I need your help,” He said, pulling h
It was the last lunch break of the day and Chloe planned to finish as much of her homework as possible so that when she got home, she could just put the washing in and go sleep.After fetching her books from her locker, she made her way to the field at the back of the school, going to sit on the bleachers under the sun. She could feel the air was warm but she was still shivering under her hoodie.She walked up the narrow stairs, taking a seat at the very top of the bleachers, she put her bag down by her feet, scratching through it to find the books she needed. Chloe was so exhausted while she struggled to focuse on the questions of her history assignment. It took her some time to register the questions and to think of the answers but she was glad she was actually getting somewere non the less.“Hey you,” Came a raspy voice.She looked up to see a tall blond boy with a crooked nose, he was someone she saw around the school often, a football player, she could tell by the jacket with the
The bell signalled the end of school, student were dragging their chairs across the tiled floor, the screeching making Niki cringe while they ran out the class room door. Niki took her time packing up, in hopes she could dodge the traffic of students running up and down the halls, eager to get home.Niki wasn't in a talking mood when she got to Matts car, waiting outside the door, tapping her foot impatiently on the floor. Her mind was running wild with thoughts and things she was trying to make sense of when Matt and Mark came waltzing out the school.They were too busy with their own conversation the whole ride home that they didn't bother asking Niki any questions about her day or her encounter with Chloe, something she was grateful for.When they got home, she walked out to the back of the house, taking a seat on the wooden stairs of the porch that led to the spacious back yard. Niki was staring at the trees while her mind processed the events of the day.She was still amazed at h
Matt was running through the forest in his wolf form, Zane taking control. Their anger was intensified as Matt's rage mixed with Zanes. He pushing them to run faster than ever, trying to control their boiling anger. He felt twigs and stones sticking to the underside of his paws, poking and stabbing at his feet every time his paws touched the ground. Sand was flying out behind them as they ran with inhuman speed, dodging trees and leaping over bushes. The wind was cold as it ripped through his long black fur, cooling his scorching skin. His muscles were burning from the running but Zane didn't let up, instead he pushed further, forcing them to go faster even as their back legs wanted to give out.Matt wanted to reason with his wolf, try to calm him down, but Zanes rage mirrored his own and so he knew it would be pointless to try. They both couldn't handle the thought of Chloe being a victim of abuse, Matt kept trying to talk himself into any other conclusion that wouldn't include Chl
Once Matt got back to the house, he shifted back and went to his bedroom to put on Jean's and a shirt. He waited for his father outside the front of the house, leaning on the large oak door. The cobble stone of the dirveway glowed yellow under the street lamps and light that escaped the windows from inside the house.Matt didn't have to wait long until he heard the roar of his dads truck just down the street and a few seconds later, the old gray truck came into view, the headlights blinding Matt slightly as James idled to a stop in front of the drive way. Matt jogged toward the truck, opening his fathers door before James got the chance.“What did you find?” He asked while James scratched in the cubby, taking out a few papers and collecting the three books on the passenger seat. Once James had everything he wanted, he stepped out of the truck, slamming the door behind him.“Not here,” he said, walking off toward the door of the house. When they got to the front door, Matt opened it,
It had been a week since Chloe and Niki had met on the bleachers wanting to be her friend. At the start, Chloe didn't really want anything to do with her, not wanting to give Niki the power to hurt her; and so she kept pushing her away. It didn't work though, Niki was very persistent on getting to know Chloe, as she would follow her every where and brush off the rude remarks Chloe would throw her way.Though, that all changed when they started talking about chemisty and for the first time they had a proper conversation. Chloe enjoyed having someone to talk to about her classes and to theorize on the different possibilities of a reaction when combining certain chemicals. She doesn't know why Niki wanted to be around her in the first place; Chloe knew she wasn't the best company to have.Chloe found herself getting quite attached to the girl, though she didn't want to, she couldn't help be drawn to Niki and the friendship they were building. Chloe couldn't deny that it scared her someti
“You're not supposed to be in here,” Chloe spat, glaring at Liam while she tried covering her body the best she could.“No, we're not,” he said with a devious smile on his face as he looked her up and down, his eyes momentarily focusing on the bruising that covers one half of her body.“We?” Chloe questioned, a frown covering her features. Just then four other guys, around the same build, wearing football blazers came into the bathroom, smirking at Chloe. “Get out!” she shouted at all of them, backing up a bit as they surrounded her.“You see, you and your new friend have really been hurting our feelings,” He said, putting his hand on his chest in mock hurt, "and by the look of things, we're not the only ones," He smirked, gesturing to her bruises.“Well if you'd learn to listen the first time a girl says no, I'm sure you wouldn't have that problem,” Chloe retorted, ignoring his last remark.“Yea, well now it's time to return the favour,” He said, an evil smile pulling at his lips. He
'Matt, we need to go find Chloe, it's an emergency,' Niki shouted in Matts head, urgency clear in her voice.'I'm coming, where are you?' He asked in a harsh tone.'Field,' she said in anxiously and Matt started running, each step held purpose as he made his way in the direction of the field.The closer he got, the more students there were, blocking his way. He didn't let that stop him, but it did make his anger boil closer to the edge as bodies bumped and pushed at him. He needed to get to Chloe, the tone Niki had used was enough for him to know that they could not take their precious time.So he pushed further though the mass of bodies blocking his way, ranting over something with shocked looks on their faces. He made his way out the large, green double doors to the field. Half the school was outside which was unusual as they all wispered to one another, some laughing amongst themselves while others frowned. He saw Niki off to the side at the edge of the field and ran over to her.“
