Slamming my locker shut I leant against it looking over at the crowd of cheerleaders wearing barely any clothing prancing around with their pompoms. I tried to hide the distaste on my face, when Rose Hart noticed. Oh shit.

She came storming towards me a look that would kill plastered all over her face. I straightened my back and braced myself for the abuse that would be coming my way.

"Is there a problem bitch?" She crossed her arms over her chest glaring at me, her foot tapping against the ground as she waited for my response.

I gulped before saying "No problem at all"

This had caused her to laugh "Oh really then why was you looking at me and my friends like you're better than us?"

"I wasn't"

She stepped closer trying to seem threatening "But you was"

"Well I'm sorry if it came across that way but I really wasn't" The words stumbled out of my mouth and she just rolled her eyes at me.

"Just shut up" And that was when her hand slapped hard around my face sending me looking in the opposite direction.

I could feel the burning sensation in my cheek and I placed a hand to it, staring at her in disbelief. She had just hit me. I gulped swallowing the tears, I was not going to allow her to see me cry. She stepped forward for another attack when I heard feet pounding towards us.

Scott McCall, a tanned brunette, someone I'd least expect to see stood in front of me protectively. Rose suddenly stood up straight, a flirtatious look in cat like eyes as she twirled a curl around her finger staring up at Scott.

"Hey how you doing Scott?" She smiled and I swallowed down the vile that formed at the back of my throat. Was she for real?

"What the hell are you doing?" He growled and Rose took a step back, in shock. Even I was surprised at how harsh his tone was.

She composed herself before saying "I was just messing around" and then she looked at me "Wasn't I Ivy?"

I gulped and just nodded; scared she'd make my life hell if I told him the truth. But Scott wasn't stupid.

"Hitting her? Is that some kind of new game huh?" He clenched his fists and for I second I thought he was going to hit her.

"I was just-"If I said I didn't enjoy her squirming like a worm, then I'd be lying.

"You just what? Picked on her for no reason like the bully you are" Rose's face drained of colour and I could see her mouth trying to form a response. She slammed her mouth shut when she found nothing to say.

"I'm sorry Ivy for hitting you" Scott raised his brow, as if to say that's it? Which made her sigh "It won't happen again" And then she turned on her heel, storming off down the hallway. Her friends, who had not said a word since the incident following her, trying to keep up

I let out the breath I had been holding in and gripped hold of the straps on my back pack tighter as I watched Scott turn to face me.

"Thanks for that" I muttered, embarrassed that someone I didn't even know well had to stick up for me because I was too weak to.

"It's okay" He chuckled running a hand through his messy black hair "I just hate bullies"

"Me too" I laughed rubbing at my cheek, I knew it was red.

"She got you good ay?" He leant forward to get a better look and I laughed nervously at how close he was to my face.

"its fine I'm used to it" I shrugged taking a step back. Rose wasn't the first person to pick on me. I was prone to it somehow.

"How come I've never seen you around before?" He eyed me suspiciously and I didn't like being under his scrutiny.

"I blend with the walls" I joked and this had caused him to laugh. It was a loud throaty laugh.

I heard the buzz of his cell phone in his pocket and tried not to stare as he got it out and read the message on the screen. He sighed and shook his head.

Looking up he said "Well it was nice seeing you?" He paused waiting for me to say my name.

"Ivy" I said quietly.

"Ivy" He repeated with a smile before squeezing my shoulder as he walked past. Oh for god sake no.

I could feel my mind reeling and the overwhelming pain in my stomach made me lurch forward. I had to lean against the wall to steady myself. I squeezed my eyes shut and let the scene flood through me.

She kissed me rough and desperate, her body pressed against mine. I ran my hands all over her body wanting more. I could feel my inner wolf screaming at me to be as close to her as possible but my human mind was telling me to ease back. I could hurt her.

"What's wrong?" She whispered against my lips, which made my mind go insane.

"I don't want to get too serious and hurt you" I looked up at her, flashing my yellow eyes at her watching the realisation form on her face.

She composed herself before saying "You won't"

I shook my head rapidly drawing myself back to reality. I took a few harsh breaths, catching some weird looks from the people passing by. I had just had another vision.

I could feel the beads of sweat forming at my forehead and I wiped it with the back of my hand. I scanned the hallways in hope that no one had seen my little incident; luckily everyone had already made their way into class. Oh crap. I was going to get a tardy. Thanks a lot Scott for touching me.
