When I woke up I notice I was with the same smile I felt asleep with… That frustrated me a little bit. Would he be thinking about me the same way or was he just? Before I could keep thinking, my alarm clock went off, so I shut it down. I got up and got on my bathroom and got a quick shower. I went over boar with dressing up today… I went down to the kitchen, and my father had a plate already serve for me I sat down and eat without appetite. How long? Well he did say a couple of weeks…

"Honey?" My dad interrupted my thinking…

"Yes dad?"

"Your not that hungry are you?" I smiled at him… I was so predictable… "Just go to school kiddo." I smiles, stood up, gave him a kiss on the forehead, and headed to my car. Once inside the car. "Hmm honey?"

"Yes dad?" I said as I turned on the car.

"Are you coming straight to the house or you homework to do?"

I understood the question perfectly, my father was still trying to kill my habit of going to the forest… But now was impossible…

"I got homework to do dad. Why you ask?"

"Cant you just have my room?" I shook my head.

"My bedroom is not the problem and you know it…" I winked at him and drove off. Poor dad… When I arrived at school Samantha and Emily were waiting for me.

"Hey guys."

"Hey Jane, did you like your birthday party?"

"Yes I love it."

"Cant wait to see what we got on our essays." I said. Emily grunted.

"I know I got a D."

"Well I bet I got an A+." Samantha said cockily…

"Well I would be happy with B or A minus." I said. "See you guys on English." I went to my Spanish class and sat in my usual table. My partner today was absent, so I had the space to my self. The class started and a few minutes later I heard a small knocking on the classroom window… When I looked up towards the window… Michael was there. I involuntarily let escape a giggle and everybody in the classroom looked at me, especially the teacher who had a really angry face.

"Miss Madison. Do you think the way Spanish is pronounced is funny?"

"No sir, actually… I hate my stupid accent when I pronounce something in Spanish… I try at home to imitate you… You think if I hated Spanish or think is ridiculously funny I would have a really good grade?"

"Well no. Then what's with the giggle?"

"Oh sir, can I come up and tell you what's wrong with me… I don't want the whole class to know…"

"Ok miss Madison." Everyone in the classroom try to listen. I came up to the teacher really slowly thinking to my self… I cant believe I'm doing this to meet with a boy I barely know… When I got to the teacher I pulled him closer and told him I was indigested and my face was about to revealed it, so I giggle because I was trying so hard to hold it until class was over… I didn't wanted to miss anything in the class. He started laughing and now I was embarrassed.

"Miss Madison you may be excuse and don't worry. Jonny would give you his notes at lunch so you can copy it. And in doing so he'll have extra credit on his pop quiz from yesterday." I got closer to his ear…

"I can hold it."

"Go miss Madison and have a great weekend." I went to my table and grabbed my stuff and went out. When I went outside Michael was no where to be found.

"Great." Did I just skip one of my favorite class in vain? Before I turned back to the school somebody from behind me said in a whisper.

"Looking for me?" I turned around a little taken aback to see who it was.

"Michael." I said a little relieve.

"You were expecting someone else? Your skipping partner perhaps?"

"For your information I never skip class, I don't even miss class unless I'm so sick I cant even get up from bed. Which never happens either." He started laughing incredulously. "What?"

"Well I find it hard to believe you are such a goody goody."

"Well… I am. Deal with it." He smirk.

"Ok. Are you ready?"

"For what?"

"Well we cant go to our favorite forest, but something similar until your next class starts. You don't want to stay in the open, now do you? Your reputation may end."

"Let's just go."

"Follow me." I did followed him and we got to a really beautiful small forest. It wasn't a forest… It was something similar…

"Wow, I been going to this school for two years and never notice this place before."

"I know. Nobody has."

"So how come you know?"

"Are you kidding? I made this place."

"Ok, if you don't want to tell me… That's fine."

"I'm serious. I cleaned up this part of the school and made it one of my thinking place when I don't want to hear the total quiet of the forest."

"Oh ok. So what did you wanted to talk to me about?" He looked at me really confuse.

"Me?"

"Yes, you knocked on my classroom window inviting me to embarrass my self and get out to meet you."

"Oh yes. But I didn't wanted to talk to you."

"WHAT?!"

"Le me explain. I wanted to hang out with you. Is that better?"

I looked at him incredulously. "Then why didn't you wait until the school ended? I was going to the forest right after-"

"Well after school you could only stay at least only two hours pushing your luck until dinner." Before he kept going I interrupted him.

"Well, I was planning to go after dinner and then at night…"

"I know, but I wasn't going after dinner or at night."

"Why not?" I asked a little disappointed.

"Because you young lady. You need your sleep and study as well."

"Oh? Yeah right." He had this sacrifice look on his face. And said.

"I can transfer to this school if you want me to and have all our class together."

"No. I know you love your school, and besides I don't want to share you… at least not yet." He started to laugh and look at me like he wanted to kiss me… And I wanted him too…

"What?" I finally said.

"You don't want to share me? Am I yours?"

"You know what I meant."

"No. Actually I don't."

"Well you're my cool friend, and I want to keep you for my self. If I talk about you, people are going to ask how we met. Etc, etc.

"You selfish silly girl." He started laughing again. "Ok so why did you accept my request?"

"I don't know… I didn't even think about it…"

"So we are just friends?"

"Yes."

"Even after that beautiful kiss?" He smirk

"You stole that kiss."

"You kissed me back."

"I think I hear the bell ring."

"Nope." He looked at his watch. "We got 30 more minutes." I stared at him, he stared back for a second. "Can we just skip the whole day?"

"I cant… I have next period with my friends… they would ask me where I was etc… Maybe fourth period…" He smirk. "Where's you car?" He frown as if I reminded him of something he should of though.

"Hmmm I came walking. I don't like using my… motor of transportation." I stared at him surprise. "You walked here? From your house? Don't you live close to my house?" I made three questions together to trick him.

"Yes, I do live close to your house. And like I said a minute ago I came walking, but from your house."

"My house is half an hour in car. Walking should of taken you more than my first period."

"Well I did run a little bit."

"Still."

"Jane." He interrupted me. "You don't want to go down this road trust me." He smiled and said. "I'm thinking of you. Is for your own good."

"Why I don't want to go down this road? What if I like this road?" He didn't speak. I looked around. "So what you were just going to wait for me here all this time?"

"Yes."

I felt guilty. "Fine you win. I'll skip today with you." He grinned and took my keys.

"Good. I drive." We got in my car and I let him drive… He told me he was going to take me to one of my top five best place. While we drove I texted Emily that I went home and I would explain later. After 30 minutes we arrive at a deserted beautiful beach.

"Wow." It's al I could say.

"Do you like it?"

"Yes. It is amazing. With you I'm starting to think I don't get out a lot." He laughed.

"What's so funny? I'm serious."

"Well honey, your not the only one who hasn't seeing the places I'm taking you. I don't think people know about it. I'm showing you my secret places."

"Oh." I manage to say. Starting to feel stupid. We got out of the car and walked towards the beach.

"This is the place that I come when I'm really angry, and want to calm my self down." We sat down on the sand and looked at the blue sea. Then I finally said.

"How old are you?"

"I'm 17."

"Why are you in the forest so much? Why do you dress like Tarzan there?

"Jane don't-"

"What I want to know."

"Trust me when I say this. You. Really. Don't. Want. To know." I pulled him close to me almost kissing him… But he pulled back…

I frowned at him. "Why did you kiss me?"

"I told you… I really like you…"

"I like you too, which is weird."

"Why?"

"I only know you for two days now. I'm not that easy to be this attracted to guys." But I kissed him anyways… He kissed me back pulling me closer… After a couple of minutes I pulled back. "What's your secret? From whom are you protecting me?

"Jane!"

"We cant have a relationship if your hiding something from me."

"You really want to know?"

"Yes. Please." He breathed and then said.

"From me ok. I'm a werewolf." When he said werewolf I started laughing really bad, like he was telling me a really funny joke.

"Jane I'm serious."

"For your information Michael. Werewolf's only transform at night. There are not people on a full moon. And yesterday was one."

"Jane is more complicated than that I got powers too." I was looking at him still laughing and skeptically. "Remember when you ask me if I heard a wolf the first day we met? That was me."

"So… Your protecting me from you?"

"Yes Jane."

"Were you watching me as a wol-" I didn't finish. I just shook my head. "No, but you wouldn't hurt me?" I stared at him. "Why do you think you can hurt me?" He put a hand on my cheek.

"I told you. You didn't want to know."

"That your putting me in danger?" I asked skeptically.

"Yes Jane. I'm the danger. I'm protecting you against my own will even against my family, but with me protecting you, you don't have to worry about being in danger… Please stop the subject…"

"If your protecting me from you wouldn't be better to just stay away that day on the forest?"

"I cant help it. I cant stand being away from you. I tried, but I just had to talk to you."

"How can I be safe and in danger with you at the same time?"

"Drop it!" He saw my face and started explaining… "Jane turning into a werewolf is not the only thing I do. There are people, bad people who is trying to hurt us. When I said us, I mean me and my family and people like us, we all live together in a sort of community… The bad people is trying to get us in the bad side or kill us."

"So tenically I'm putting YOU in danger." I started thinking into breaking up with him… I couldn't let him risk his life for me… But I just couldn't bring my self to say it…

"Jane. Even if you were the one that tells me to get away from you that you hate the fate I put you in… That you hate me… I wouldn't listen. I just would watch you from a hiding place… but since I cant stay away from you I would talk to you eventually…" He wink.

"Ok." I said a little irritated now. "Is mind reading part of your powers?" He laughed. "Jane you think I read minds?"

"Well… You always know what I'm thinking…"

"Well we are kind of connected in a way… when you wanted to kiss me I wanted to kiss you, I feel what you feel. I sort of saw our future… Our people has ways of looking into the future for self defense purpose. And when they look my soul mate I saw on that night… this day. Once I saw you I wanted to protect you, and my elders new you were the one in my life I would die for."

"What?" I gasp. "Your going to die because of me?"

"No. I just meant. I would die happily to save your life." I hug him.

"I wouldn't let you." He let me fall flat on the sand… And was no way to be seen. Then he appeared behind me and got really close to my ear.

"How are you going to stop me?" I turned towards him grabbing his shirt and pulling him closer. He didn't resist he grabbed my face and started pulling me closer to him, and we kissed. After a minute I pretended my leg hurt…

"Ouch." I put on a fake hurt face. He pulled back staring at me with a worried face.

"What's wrong? Did I hurt you?"

"No."

"What's wrong?"

"My leg hurt really bad, I think something bit me…"

"Where does it hurt?"

"Here." I touched some random part of my leg. He was touching it, and feeling it. I wanted to giggle. But I hold it in. Michael was frowning… Actually he looked frustrated.

"What's wrong?"

"I cant feel your pain." He said really sad.

"Well it's my leg that hurts."

"No! I should feel your pain. Remember I told you… We were suppose to be connected… I felt your desire yesterday… Something is wrong… something changed… I did something wrong."

"You don't believe all that?" He stood up letting go of my leg.

"Yes I do." I stood up too.

"Michael W-" But he took off running. I didn't try to go after him… It was impossible. So I let my self fall in the sand… I hurt Michael for being stupid. I threw my self back in the sand, but before my head touched the sand something caught it. A hand. I turned to look who it was. "Michael?"

"I saw this part with the oracle… but I didn't see your cruel joke…"

"Why did you run away from me?"

"I though you weren't the one for me… That some how I change our fate."

"So if you cant feel my pain… Your not the one for me?"

"Yes." He tried to kiss me, but I pulled back… I glared at him and slapped him. "Jane?"

"Let go of me." He hold got tighter and he pulled me closer to him. "Let me go!"

"Jane you want to kiss me… stop fighting it." I slapped him again. "Jane you know it doesn't hurt right?"

"Let me go."

"Is that what you really want?"

"Yes." He let go of me… but I wasn't expecting it, and I fell face first to the sand. "Jerk!" He knelt besides me and offer me his hands. "Don't touch me!"

"Jane stop being angry at me I wasn't leaving you…"

"Whatever. What time is it?"

"We are still good on time… but I guess you want to leave?"

"Yes." We got in the car and we ride to my house quietly. I got out of the car, but before I close the door I look at him. "You know I wont go to the forest today… to be honest I don't know when I'll be back."

"Yes I know." I close the door and walk to the house… My dad was still at work, and there was a note on the fridge.

Honey, I'll be late today. I'll probably be back home at might night. There's food I made for you on the fridge.

Dad.

Great, I had the house to myself today. I didn't have the neurotic father at home. I could spent more time in the forest if I wanted to.

"Ups I forgot to call Samantha and Emily." So I got my cell phone and call them both at the same time. They were so mad at me that I couldn't understand what they were telling me.

"Let me explain you guys." But they were at it again. "STOP!" I yell at them. And they were quiet.

"Guy at Spanish class got sick. I asked permission to mister Rodriguez if I could be excuse from his class, because I was feeling really sick."

"Were sorry." They said.

"It's ok, I understand. It was my fault, I only wrote you guys a text message. But I was so sick I couldn't even got out of bed." I tried sounding convincing.

"You know what I don't understand?" Samantha said.

"What?"

"How you drove."

"A student drove me."

"I'm glad your ok, I have to go I got a D minus for a stupid point I almost got an F so I'm grounded. Part of my punishment no more calls before and after dinner. See you guys Monday." Emily said, but Samantha said her goodbye and they both hung up. I took a long shower…. After the shower I got dressed up and stared at the living room door looking at the forest…. What's the damage? He wont be there… It was empty I started reading… Hours pass by and he didn't came. I threw the book to the floor.

Damn it. I want him here now. Some one turned me.

"Finally." I hug him. "I was going crazy." So we made up and I went to the house before my dad came back from work… I went to my room, put on pjs and lay down on my bed. Hoping sleep would take me fast….
