Chapter Eight: The Confrontation.
It was Monday morning during second hour when it happened. She had no right to do it. I mean she was asking for what happened Saturday at the diner.. But the whole diner laughed at her... she hated being laughed at.
Poor Cassey though, she wouldn't have standed a chance.. If someone hadn't intervened that is.
Presley approached Cassey's locker where she was talking to a few of the younger pack members. When they saw the look in Presley's eyes they backed off and away from Cassey. They had been there that night and knew she was on the war path.
Presley grabbed Cassey by the back of the neck and slammed her face into the locker door. Immediately blood covered the wall. Presley began to attack again and Luke thought it best to stop it now before it got worse.. Inter pack fights were rare but rough. As Luke started walking down the hall while sending mental messages to the other pack members to assemble his thoughts were interrupted.
"Sean, take the left flank, James you grab from behind and I will take the left." Luke told each pack member as the closed in.
"Aye Aye, captain," Sean said trying to be funny.
"Yes sir." James said always the serious one.
"Everyone, especially you Luke Cates, stay away from Presley. The b**** is mine." A voice interrupted in a commanding boom.
Moments later someone ran past Luke and in a split second Presley was on the ground.. Face bloody from the impact.
Everything went quiet and even with Luke's super senses it took a second to register what happened.
Sophia had thrown Presley on the floor... Oh man what was gonna happen now? Two human friends of Sophia's and Cassey's as well as Paul were bent over her trying to stop the bleeding.
Cindy held a hand out to Presley who took it and the two were soon joined by another of Presleys hoe friends... Presley however waved them off and indicated she wanted Sophia for herself.
"Now, You're going to get that face of yours all rearranged, though I suppose it couldn't hurt." Presley sneered.
"Presley, you better hope she can't whoop you. you'd never live it down." A doubtful voice whispered inside Presley's head.
"Now, Now Presley wouldn't wanna ruin two shirts in a week would ya?" Sophia questioned with a mocking look in her eyes.
"What, are you doing? She is wolf.. She's gonna tear you to shreds... Where are the teachers at anyways???" Sophia's voice whispered.
"Sophia... can you hear me? Do you want me to call her off. I can have three guys on her in two seconds." Luke questioned pleading within hisself hoping she heard him but no answer.
"WHAT is going on out here?" Sherman yelled as he ran down the hall. All he saw as the crowd parted was Cassey and Presley on the floor with blood all over them and Sophia and Luke standing across from each other staring at each other like they were all they could see.
" Luke, Sophia, you will accompany me with to my office and Paul you will escort Presley and Cassey to the nurse's office." Sherman said.
"I cant believe this." Sophia yelled inside her head, " Look what you've done. Now you're going to get suspended."
"Sit down.. Both of you." Sherman commanded.
"Don't worry Sophia, I wont let you get the blame for this." Luke said softly in his head.
Sophia got a strange tickle on her neck and turned to look at Luke who had his head facing Sherman..
"She looked over here... did she hear me.. Oh god let her have heard me." Luke silently prayed.
Sherman kept shifting his gaze from each kid to the other sizing them up.
"Well, Luke, I think its time to see just how far you are willing to go for Miss Donner." Sherman said to himself making sure to see that Luke didn't hear him.
"Now Miss Donner from what I saw it appears that you attacked Miss Callahan (Cassey) and then when Miss Chazez (Presley... don't know her last name... Cassey is an original though) tried to step in you then attacked her." Sherman finished in one breath while looking at Luke and Sophia at intervals.
"That's not true!!!" Luke's first voice yelled in his head.
"Sophia didn't do it. she was only helping!!" the second voice chimed in and they agreed for once.
"Do something!!!" both screamed at Luke.
"Sherman, that isn't what happened at all." Luke began hesitantly.
"Oh really Mr. Cates, then what exactly did happen?" Sherman questioned why trying to hide a grin.
"wow he is going out on a limb here." He thought.
"wait why is he sticking up for me?" Sophia's voice asked.
"because he wants you and YOU want HIM!" a second voice answered.
Sophia shook her head trying to clear it because this was the first time the second voice had been audible. Before it had just been like a tingling.
"That isn't what happened Miss Donner?" Sherman asked seeing Sophia shake her head."
"Oh no its not that.. I was just trying to clear my head." She answered absent mindley.
"See, sir, Cassey sided with Sophia when Presley overstepped her bounds at the diner on Saturday." Luke began.
"Aw yes the cherry coke.. It has been all over the school." Sherman interrupted.
"yes it has and Presley didn't like that." Luke continued, " Well see I think she planed to start with Miss Donner but found Cassey first so she thought 'hey why not' and started in on her."
"I don't see how this involves Miss Donner, Mr. Cates." Sherman replied feigning annoyance while in fact he was enjoying watching this pup fight for what he thought to be his future mate.
"Well see sir.." Luke began again but Sohia cut him off.
"See Cassey is my best friend... she always has been. She stood by me when I needed her at the diner and I wasn't going to let her get the crap beat out of her because of it." She explained.
"So you attacked Miss Chazez?" Sherman said now actually being a little confuse
"Did you attack her or not Sohia?" Sherman asked himself.
"No I simply approached Miss Chazez," she said emphazing Miss Chazez, "and grabbed her arm so she couldn't hit Cassey. When she turned around she swung at me I ducked and let go of her arm."
"And in doing so she sent Presley to the floor.. hard." Luke finished. "but it was an accident."
" I see." Sherman said finally.
"Well I suppose you two can go now."
"Yes sir." They said together.
After the two had left his office Sophia stopped Luke.
"Thank you for verifying my story." Sophia began.
"Sophia. that's what happened." He said.
"you, I, Presley, and the ENTIRE school know I threw Presley down not just let go of her arm." Sophia said pointedly.
"Not from where I was standing." Luke whispered while tucking a strand of stray hair behind her ear, "besides I would vouch for you over ANYONE anytime you need it."
"Sophia are you okay?" Paul asked as he ran down the hall.
"Yeah Paul I'm fine." Sophia said as she pulled him into a hug.
"How's Cassey?" she asked worriedly.
At this Paul chuckled.
"you wont believe it.. Cassey just bloodied her nose and lips. ya know bit her gums. but from where you hit Presley on the floor." He began to laugh hysterically.
After a few moments he composed himself and continued.
"They think it might be broken. talk about weird huh?" He finished while beginning to chuckle again..
"yeah weird." Sophia said trying not to look at Luke because she knew he had "THAT" look on his face.
"Hey Paul, think we could grab a bite before you drive me home?" Sophia asked while rubbing her stomach.. She just realized that she had not only missed lunch but because of the talk with Sherman and then the principal..( I know I didn't show this but for times sake pretend they had a long talk) she had missed the entire school day.
"Yeah sure.. Oh yeah.. I got your homework from your teachers." He said helpfully.
"Great.. you're a lifesaver." She said while pecking him on the cheek.
As they walked away leaving a stunned Luke behind he heard a bit of a sentence.
"So I'll pick you up at 8 for the movie?" Paul asked.
"Yeah."
As he turned the two voices chimed in, in unision.
"Sohia hurt a wolf more than a wolf hurt another wolf.. Sophia Donner you are certainly special and you will be MINE!" they said
ok in the next chapter I plan for Luke to not side with Presley but she tries.. I think Luke would take presley to the movies on a "date" so he can watch Sophia and Paul.. Some serious conflict there.
