Love, Heartbreak, and Werewolves
Chapter 1
My alarm woke me up at 6:30 am. It always takes so much effort to get up. I got up a bit too quickly and fell back onto the bed. This wasn't helping. My phone buzzed on my dresser. It was Jaimee Reed, my best friend.
"Hello?" I croaked.
"Get up!" she shouted.
I laughed as my ear rang, "Okay, okay."
Jaimee was my usual wake up call really. She put the phone down and I managed to drag myself out of bed to my mirror and brush my hair. I straightened it, put my mascara on, got my bag sorted and went downstairs for breakfast. Someone knocked on the door. Never any peace these days. I smirked. One hand holding my bowl of cereal and my phone in the other, I opened the door with my elbow. It was Logan Cooper, one of my three best friends. He walked in and smiled, "Want some help?"
I sighed with relief, "please."
He laughed and got my things together whilst I was brushing my teeth.
"Thanks, Logan" I said grabbing my bag and blazer. I kissed my mum, Breanna on the cheek before shouting, "See you later!" to my dad, Brady and closing the door behind us. I hated the school uniform but not like any of us had a choice. As Logan and I walked I wondered what today had in store for me today? What would go wrong today? Oh, and by the way, I'm Jade. Jade Marie Best. I was in my own little world when Logan's shouting inturupted my day dreams.
"Caleb! Jaimee!" he called.
Caleb Davis was the last of the three. We always met them halfway to the school every morning.
Caleb put his arm over my shoulder, "Awh your birthday Saturday. My little baby's growing up" he laughed pinching my cheek like my nan used to. I couldn't resist smiling but still groaned, "dont remind me."
Jaimee laughed "You're only 16. It's a little young to be worrying over growing old just yet."
"Suppose" I shrugged. I knew though that we would always stick together no matter what happened. They were my bestest and closest friends who will always be there for me.
We got to the school just in time for the bell to go for registration. It was always cold where we lived in Michigan but you learn to live with it.
Jaimee and I were in the same form class whilst Caleb and Logan were in another. As we sat down Seth Anderson and his friends, Luke Taylor, Riley Burns and Caitlin Lopez walked in. I smiled. He smiled back and I just felt all the blood rush to my cheeks and felt like my heart melted.
"You have got to get over him" Jaimee laughed.
"I have" I replied snapping out of it.
She smirked, "Course you have."
I never fully understood Seth. We used to be really close and Caitlin used to be one of us but day by day they started changing and we haven't talked since. Seth and his friends usually kept themselves to themselves really. Never found out why but still intend to.
