I wish I didn't follow it. I wish that I had never seen who my mate was. Looking down the hallways she was in, the one I was destined to with, was none other than Skylar Maine. I knew who she was in this school, what her reputation was in this school. She could never be my Luna, she was weak, she couldn't handle a position like this. I knew what I had to do. For goodness sakes, everyone would mock me if they found who she was. My wolf screamed at me to stop, to accept her. But I couldn't. I can't accept a weak Luna.
I couldn't ruin my reputation, socnext thing I knew, she was pinned against the locker. I ignored the sparks I felt when touching her, and ignored how beautiful she truly was. I couldn't accept her. Anyone but her. I rejected her, but was shocked to her response.
"I don't care, now let go of me!" She yelled, trying to shove me off. I was taken back, and frankly slightly hurt. I shook that away before I glared at her.
"What do you mean you don't care?! I just rejected you! How are you not upset!?" I yelled, feeling confused about all of this. I ignored how she winced as I pressed harder on her shoulder.
"Let go of me! I knew that you'd most likely reject me! Now let me go, I'll see you in a year!" She yelled at me, shoving me off. She had managed to do so, which frankly shocked me. Not even Brian was strong enough. I had never truly seen her act like this, her actually standing up for once. It shocked me completely. I watched as she began to walk away, and I grabbed her wrist.
"What do you mean you'll see me in a year?" Why would she say that? I felt myself start to become worried, coming up with many scenarios as to why she was leaving.
"Go ask your Dad! Now let go!" She yelled, pulling her wrist free from my grip. She ran down the halls, and I followed after her. She walked out the school doors. I then saw the three new Betas. Just as I was about to ask what they were doing here, I watched as Sky went up to them, hugging them before climbing in the car with them.
Finally we had made it to the airport, I swear my parents were getting lost on purpose. Not sure for the reason but I don't want to dwell on that. Climbing out of the car, I went to the trunk and grabbed my bags. I pulled it out before setting it on the floor. Thank goodness for roller bags. Once everyone had their things we walked to the entrance of the airport, walking through the doors people all around were walking quickly, some even running while others casually sat around. Not waisting anytime we made our way to the booth to get our tickets. As we stood there I couldn't ingore the fact that my heart still felt like breaking and that I wanted to cry a river of tears. But I had to be strong right now, I couldn't let anyone see my pain, especially my brothers.
As we stood in line I felt my tummy rumble. I told my parents that I was gonna go get something to snack on while they all waited there. Entering the small little shop I looked around at all the different kinds of snacks they had. But I couldn't shake the feeling of being watched, and true to my gut when I turned around the cashier guy, who's probably around my age was staring at me. I admit he was kind of cute. He had dark blonde hair that came up to his shoulders, with soft blue eyes. He was muscular but still looked skinny. Though I wasn't interested in dealing with any guys for a very long time.
I grabbed a packet of chips, a chocolate bar and a drink before walking up to the counter. I also placed a pack of gum down, just so I can chew it on the plane. I hate when my ears become blocked. As he rang everything up he decided to speak.
