Author's Note;
Sooo I started writing this chapter in first person and when I finally realised that I had I'd almost finished it and I couldn't be bothered editing it, so this chapter is in first person. Hopefully it won't happen again and the other chapters will be the same.
Anyways, please enjoy!
I'm not gonna update again in a few hours today 'cause I'm really tired and I really don't feel like writing another chapter right now no matter how interesting it would be after this ones ending...
But not that matters.
Anyway, enjoy and please please please please review3
Thanks.
The first thing I noticed when I opened my eyes was the burning pain in my wrists and the pounding headache that echoed through my mind.
The second thing I noticed was Scott's face peering down at me,
"Hey, you all right?" he asked, his face no longer in my sight, warm hands helped me sit up and I pressed my palms to my eyes, trying to squeeze the pain out of my forehead.
"What happened?" I mumbled as I blinked away the spots in my vision,
"Well, we unchained you. You stood up and then fainted" Scott admitted crouching down in front of me. I groaned and tried to stand up, my surroundings swayed and I stumbled back but someone caught my shoulder and steadied me.
"You ok?" Derek asked as he let go of me, my mouth opened and closed silently as I remembered why I had fainted.
Derek was my anchor.
"I can't believe you found your anchor on your first full moon!" Scott exclaimed, I glanced at him before my gaze returned to Derek, I'd managed to close my mouth and keep it like that, but for some reason I couldn't stop staring at the tall, dark haired guy. I guess my brain just couldn't accept the fact that my anchor was Derek and I couldn't do anything about it.
"Who is it anyway?" Scott continued on, my head ache throbbed with each word he uttered and all I wanted was to lie down and go to sleep.
I shook my head and managed to force my gaze onto the ground for a few seconds before it returned to Derek, I could see that my staring was starting to freak him out so I just mumbled something like 'got to go' and pushed past them, heading for the door.
I had no idea where I was going to go I just knew that I needed to get away from that place and Scott and Derek and just everything.
The streets had become familiar to me now and I realised that ever since I'd become a werewolf I'd been walking them more often then I normally would.
I looked up and was surrounded by the forest.
That was unusual.
I seemed to be getting to places without realising either. That had stop.
I shrugged and walked through the trees, ignoring the buzz of my phone in my pocket. I just wanted to be alone right now. I trailed my hands along the trees as I walked through them enjoying the sound of the leaves crunching beneath my feet, the moonlight turning everything silver and black.
I walked further and further into the forest, barely noticing when the sky turned from black to grey, the clouds in the sky turning pink and red from the now rising sun.
I lay down on a fallen tree trunk and watched the sky turn into a rainbow of different colours, pinks, yellows, orange and red. My focus was trained on the sky so I didn't hear the sound of footsteps until Derek stood beside me,
"Found you" he said, leaning over me and blocking my view of the pretty sun rise.
"I wasn't hiding" I muttered, my eyes focusing on his face,
"Sure you weren't" I just rolled my eyes at him and gently shoved him out of my vision.
"Trying to watch a sunrise here" I said, watching the clouds as the turned from red and orange to yellow than white. Why did a sunrise have to end so quickly?
With a sigh I sat up and stared at the leaves on the ground.
"So. Are you ok?" Derek asked, sitting down beside me on the tree trunk, I didn't respond but just nodded.
We sat there in silence for a while; I formed a pile of leaves with my feet and then knocked it over before forming it again. Just when I was going to say something to break the awkward silence Derek beat me to it,
"So who is your anchor?" he asked. I stared at the leaf pile at my feet, unable to say anything how was I going to tell him that it was him?
It didn't make any sense. I hated him yet wasn't an anchor someone you had feelings for? Well, I guess I did have feelings for Derek.
They were just ones of spite. But did that still count? Obviously it had to because he was my anchor.
"Come on. Tell me!"
"No" I sighed,
"Please?"
"No"
"Is it Scott?"
I looked at Derek, my eyes wide and probably a look of disgust on my face,
"No!" I practically yelled. Now that would be even worse. I found Scott incredibly irritating. "Ok, ok! I get it" Derek said raising his hands in a defensive pose with his palms facing towards outwards.
"Sorry" I sighed,
"I'm just…" I looked for the right word. Tired, angry, confused, terrified, relieved, frustrated and despaired pretty much summed it up.
"You can tell me" I heard Derek whisper, I glanced at him and found he was looking at me; I looked away, training my eyes on the leaf pile once more. I thought through the worst possible scenario and all I could come up with was everything being incredibly awkward whenever I saw him. I guess it couldn't be that bad.
"My anchor is…" I began but couldn't bring myself to finish the sentence, squeezing my eyes shut I took a deep breath and forced myself to say the next word;
"You" I breathed, glancing at him.
"What?!" came the reply.
