This chapter isn't very long, sorry! But I wanted to update asap
Not much more to say,
Laters!
Zoe's POV
I spend extra time on my hair and makeup in the morning, knowing that I've got to make an effort in order for my plan to work. I apply my foundation, mascara and lipgloss, then roll up my skirt a few inches and undo the top two buttons of my school shirt. How could Rhydian resist me now?
Rhydian's POV
As I walk up to school, my mind wanders aimlessly until it comes to a rest on my favourite person in the whole world. Maddy. I really miss her. But I don't want her to miss me. I want her to be happy. I'm nearly at the classroom when I hear Zoe walking behind me. I turn around to say hi and I am met by what looks like the new 4th K. Her face is a mask of makeup, hear blouse is half undone, her skirt is rolled up… and she smells like a baby prostitute. (Guess the movie quote!) "Hi Rhydian!" She says cheerfully, seemingly gazing into my eyes.
"Oh, errr, hi Z-Zoe" I stutter, feeling myself blush. "Sorry I was lost in thought"
"That's okay", she said, before leaning uncomfortably close to me and stroking my arm whilst whispering "if you need to talk to me about anything, I'm always here for you." Okay now I'm really confused. "Let's go to class before Jeffries has a fit" I manage to say, as I turn to go. "you're right, we'd better go" she agrees, before looking me straight in the eye and then turning away towards class. I am so confused!
Zoe's POV
Overall if say the first step of my plan went pretty well today, I think as I undress at home later on that day. Even though Rhydian had been quiet towards me all day, he must have liked what he'd seen. I swear he stared at my legs and boobs for like, ever when I greeted him this morning, and I think he liked my perfume! I can't believe Maddy never mentioned how cute he is in our letters, but maybe she just didn't see him that way. I guess I'll never know, and since she and her parents did a runner at the smallest sign of trouble Rhydian probably thinks she's a coward. That's one thing I'm defiantly not! I lay down on my bed and I'm asleep in seconds. I can't go without my beauty sleep now can I?!
Rhydian's POV
I collapse onto the bed after my shower, and close my eyes. But sleep seems determined to evade me tonight. I get up and grab my sketchbook, running out into the garden for some fresh air. It's cold but I don't care, I need to think.
Zoe was acting weirdly today, and I don't know why. She looked strange too, and I felt attraction and repulsion at the same time. I guess I could talk to Tom and Shannon about it, problem is we're no way near as close as we used to be. But it's the best opinion I've got. I gaze up at the large moon shining down from the sky. In a few days it will be full, my fourth full moon since Maddy left. I sketch us in wolf form gazing up at moon. I wonder what she's doing right now…
Maddy's POV
I'm sitting alone on the hilltop, looking at the surrounding countryside that is aluminated by the light of the moon. The pull is getting stronger, and seems even more so when your in the wild. I pull my rug tighter around my shoulders. It's a cold night tonight, and one when I wish I was curled up in my old bed. My parents still don't know if my cousin Zoe and her parents took up our offer of living in our old house. All I know is, Rhydian is safe now. Whitewood never discovered that he was a wolfblood and so he was never in danger. However if me and my parents had tried to stay, he would have been pulled down with us, one way or another.
I didn't just leave for me. I left for him, for us…
Sorry its not very long, but I want to keep updating often,
Review so that I can keep improving and remember,
