Chapter 6 - Crazy

"… You just … look Native American... that's all."

A few seconds of silence pass between us and I can tell she's holding her breath.

"I.. I am."

She inhales sharply and her eyes light up. She opens her mouth and looks as if she's about to blurt something out but her phone interrupts her. She quickly looks at it. "Mom" is scrolling across the screen as it rings. She looks up at me apologetically.

"Sorry… I have to take this."

I nod.

"Mom?"

"Alex, your brother said you went looking for Mason over two hours ago. You need to come home. You can look again tomorrow."

I feel bad listening to her conversation but I cant help my heighted wolf hearing.

"Okay mom."
"Okay sweetie. Just be careful out there. I cant imagine what might happen if you mistake another wolf for mason. "

I furrow my eyebrows. She said wolf. Alex looks over at me quickly and then just as quickly looks away and quiets her voice a little.

"I'll know him when I find him."

I definitely heard her mom call Mason a wolf. But Alex told me Mason was her boyfriend. Are there more werewolves out in the world? Is Alex's boyfriend… or ex boyfriend… a werewolf? Maybe there's a lot about her that I don't understand. Maybe she isn't as normal as I thought. Maybe I can tell her everything.

"Bye mom." Alex says and quickly hangs up.

"Alex did she-" I started

"How long are you staying in New York?" she asks, cutting me off.

"I don't think I can leave." I say honestly.

"Why?" she asks but she's clearly relieved.

"My life is here now."

I know that makes no sense to her at the moment but she lets it go. She would understand eventually but she nods and looks back down at her shoes.

"So… I kinda have to go… maybe I could show you around the city … since your new here and everything."

She sounds so nervous. It's adorable. I smile as she looks up at me waiting for an answer. I'm happy that she wants to see me again not that I should be surprised, she is my imprint.

"I'd love that."

She smiles and grabs the pen and pad that the maid left on my nightstand.

"Good, well here."

She writes her address and phone number on the pad and hands it to me.

"I live above the Waverly Sub Station, we own it. Stop by and I'll make you a sandwich on the house."

"Thanks. I'll definitely stop by."

I feel relief wash over me knowing I wasn't going to lose her again, that she wasn't going to walk out that door and disappear forever.

"Well... "

She stands up and looks like she wants to say a lot more than she is

"I guess I'll see you around."

I don't want her to leave. Without thinking about how she would react, I grab her into a tight hug, burying my face in her hair. She smells like vanilla and cherries. I caught her off guard so she doesn't hug me back for a few seconds but soon she softens and wraps her arms around my waist. I sigh quietly. She feels so perfect in my arms. I slowly make myself pull away.

"Bye Alex."

She takes a shuttering breath. Her cheeks are slightly pink which makes me smile.

"Bye Jake."

It was the hardest thing to watch her leave but it was comforting to know I would see her again soon… I would see her tomorrow.

* Alex*

I was surprised when Jacob hugged me, but it felt nice, he's so warm. I don't understand how he's so warm and not sick but there's a lot about him that doesn't make too much sense.

I like hanging out with Jacob. He's such a sweet guy. But his answers to my questions just solidified my theories about him being somehow connected to that story in the folklore book. I need to get the courage to flat out ask him about it… but not today.

I step into the field again and suddenly remember I'm a wizard. I laugh out loud as I take my wand out of my boot. How dumb am I, I've been walking around all this time when I could just flash myself everywhere. I roll my eyes at myself what is this boy doing to me? I flash myself home into our living room.

"Alex!"

My mom gasps in surprise

"I hate when you kids do that"

"Sorry mom, I lost track of time. I didn't mean to stay out this long. Where's Harper?"

I have to tell Harper about Jake. He's definitely linked to the story and the wolf. I just don't quite understand how yet.

"She's in her room but honey come here for a second, I want to talk to you"

She looks sympathetic and it makes me sick. I feel so guilty that I haven't been looking for Mason. All I do lately is think of Jake and try and find ways to see him. She pats the spot next to her on the couch and I sigh before sitting there next to her.

"Honey I'm worried about you. You aren't taking what happened with Mason very well and I know your doing better but all that time you spend looking for him worries me."

Guilt washes over me like a tsunami. I hadn't actually looked for Mason in probably a week.

"I just think that you should put some of that time into other things, like your art, or your friends."

"Okay."

I agree just to end this tortuous conversation.

"I'll start right now. I'm gonna go talk to Harper."

I say and quickly stand up.

"Thanks mom."

She smiles and I quickly run off to Harper's room.

I bust through her bedroom door, excited to tell her about Jake.

"Harper! I went to see Jake!"

I blurt out as soon as I open the door. I gasp and cover my mouth as soon as I see Zeek sitting on her bed with her.

"You did what?"

She yells.

"Umm. I think I should leave."

Zeek says awkwardly and kisses Harper's cheek shyly making her momentarily forget how mad she is at me and blushes.

"Bye Alex. Good luck"

He tells me on his way out the door. As soon as he's out the door Harper turns right back into Angrily Harper.

"Are you nuts?"

"I know but I had to see him again. He might stop by the sub shop tomorrow."

I smiled at the thought of him coming to visit me.

"Alex your crazy! You could have been killed! We don't know anything about this guy."

"Uh Harper… Wizard remember."

I roll my eyes at her. She still looks pissed.

"He's nice Harper. You'll see when he comes over."

"Alex have you completely lost your mind?"

"I don't know. Maybe."

I honestly have been acting pretty crazy lately. But I don't care how crazy it all is. I like Jacob. I like talking to him.

"Harper he's from Forks Washington. He's Native American Just like all that stuff in the book."

"Alex."

She says, shaking her head disapprovingly.

"You should drop this. Forget about him. Just let him go back to wherever he came from."

"No, he said he's not going back."

"Oh Alex, what have you gotten yourself into this time?"
