So here is chapter six. I don't own Wolfblood.

Rhydian ran all the way to Maddy's, he scooped up a hand full of pebbles from the ground. He threw a few at Maddy's window, after a moment of no answer he threw a few more. He was getting really anxious. "Maddy." He whispered, and then tossed a few more pebbles. "Mads?" He called as loud as he dared. He sighed in relief when the curtains parted and Maddy stood there rubbing her eyes. When their eyes met Rhydian nodded his head, telling her to come outside.

Maddy met him near the edge of the property; she was wrapped in a jumper looking half asleep. He smiled wide when she saw her but she looked angry. "Are you mad? If my parents find you out here they will skin you alive." She stopped a few feet from him.

Rhydian walked closer to her. "Sorry, I had this dream where I came around in the morning but you weren't here. Everything was gone and I didn't know where to find you." He didn't mean for it to come out sounding so desperate. "I needed to make sure you were alright."

Maddy smiled at him. "I wouldn't leave you without telling you."

"They might not give you a choice."

Maddy held out her hand to him, as he took it she squeezed hard. "See I'm right here, and I'll be here when you come round in the morning for school."

Rhydian smiled. Maddy's parents finally agreed it was time for her to go back to school, they even said Rhydian could catch a ride with them. The official story was an ill relative, who was better now. "Alright, I guess I believe you."

Maddy smacked him in the arm. "And why wouldn't you?" Rhydian just laughed and pulled her in for a hug. "I'll see you in the morning, now get out of here before mum and dad find you and decide to ground me again." Rhydian kissed the top of her head, they slowly stepped apart letting their hands be the last things touching. Reluctantly they let go, Rhydian watched her enter the house before he turned to the woods.

Back at the Vaughan's Rhydian slipped through the back door, unfortunately for him, his foster mum was waiting for him. "Where have you been?" She looked really crossed.

"I got restless, just went for a jog." He tried to play it off.

"You went around Maddy's didn't you?" She wasn't buying his story.

Rhydian hung his head. "I just wanted to see her."

"And what do the Smith's think about that?"

Rhydian leaned back on the counter. "They don't know." The disappointing look on her face was enough of an answer. "They don't let us see one another, I only get to see her for a few hours every few days, and they are always there."

"Rhydian, they are her parents. They have every right to keep you two apart, and if you keep sneaking off to see her I'll start agreeing with them. Just remember you have two boys looking to you, get yourself together. No more sneaking off to see Maddy."

Rhydian sighed, he knew she was right. "Alright, I promise I won't do it again."

"Good, now get to bed."

….

Maddy put on the familiar uniform, she was excited to hang with her mates away from her parents. Her mother walked in the room. "Right, I figured it was time to set some ground rules."

Maddy resisted the urge to roll her eyes. "Mum I'm going to see my mates and go to class, not going to a party."

"Just listen. You go to class, nowhere else. If I get a call from Mr. Jeffries saying you weren't in class you will be in loads of trouble."

"Yes mum."

"And we expect you to come home right after school."

"Yes mum." Maddy grabbed her bag off the bed and headed down stairs for breakfast with her mum.

Rhydain showed up not to long after they finished. "Rhydian," Her father called out to him. "You getting along okay these days?"

Maddy noticed he looked a bit nervous. "Yes sir. Everyone is excited that Maddy is coming back today." He gave a slight smile.

"And I am sure Maddy is excited to be back as well." Maddy nodded in agreement.

"Well we better get going, don't want you being late on your first day back." Emma said grabbing her keys.

Nothing had changed at school, Maddy's mum had dropped them off just in time for everyone to see her before the bell rang. As her mum drove off Rhydian laced his fingers with her's. They didn't get much chance these days to be a couple especially with her parents around, they wouldn't get much chance at school either. Maddy smiled as she walked closer to the school hand in hand with Rhydian, Shannon was first to spot them, sending her and Tom rushing over. "You're back!" Shannon smiled.

"Course, I told you guys I would be back today."

"Yea but it is just a relief to finally see you here." Tom added.

The four friends made their way in to the class; everyone seemed to stop what they were doing as they entered. Everyone seemed shocked for a moment; Maddy noticed Katrina eyes look at her and Rhydain's hands; she smiled and whispered something to Kara. In a moment all the K's called out. "Rhydian's got a girlfriend, Rhydian's got a girlfriend." The class joined in.

"Oh stuff it." Maddy called back trying not to smile. She took her seat next to Rhydian, Shannon and Tom in front.

Mr. Jeffries came in the class. He looked about the class like he usually did, his eyes settled on Maddy. "Maddy, welcome back. Hope all is well with your aunt."

"Yes sir." She answered.

"Good to hear, right now today…" Mr. Jeffries started that day.

I am sure I must now add 'smile' and 'Come around' to my list of over used words. And Wolf200, wow I never noticed that before, I hope you're right; I'll be counting down the episodes. :D
