~Faith's POV~
"Where the hell am I supposed to put these?" Victoria asked, glancing at the box of books she was carrying (Wolves are stronger then the average person).
"Oh, I don't know, on a bookshelf maybe?" Jinx teased, from the kitchen.
"Haha." Victoria said, rolling her eyes, as she moved to the bookshelf.
"Play nice you two." I said, in a tiered tone.
We had just finished most of the unpacking, and Jinx and I were starting dinner. Tomorrow was Monday, and we would be starting at Sweet Amoris High, and I had a feeling I would be turning in early tonight, because I was, indeed, exhausted.
Erin, being as thoughtful as she is, of course noticed, "I can finish up with Jinx if you wanna take a rest until dinner?" she offered, eyeing the dark circles under my eyes.
"Thanks Erin." I smiled tentatively, I stepped aside for her to take my place, I then made my way towards the room that I share with Jinx.
Ever since my sixth-sense kicked in I haven't gotten a lot of sleep, I layed down on my bed and as soon as my head hit the pillow I was out... It felt like I had only slept minutes, but when I looked at the clock on my nightstand I realized I'd slept for an hour.
"Faith! Dinners ready!" Jinx called, from down the hall.
I got up and started for the kitchen, on the way I took in our new home.
The house we had rented was actually pretty cute, it was a pale yellow two story, two bedroom, two bath (one bathroom for Jinx, and one for the rest of us), with a cute little white fence that goes all the way around the property.
When I got to the kitchen Jinx was at the counter with a full plate of pasta on the counter in front of her, when she heard me come in she glanced up at me and nodded to the plate indicating it was for me. I took the plate with a "thank you" and sat down next to Victoria, soon after Jinx came and sat on my other side, then we all started talking and that was basically our evening.
~~Next Day~~
"Faith, lets go! Get up already!" Jinx yelled at me, I would always sleep through alarm clocks, so Jinx has become my alarm, "Faith! Don't make me get Victoria." she said.
Now that got my attention, Victoria had a habit of waking people up with cold water.
"Okay, okay, I'm up." I said, blinking away sleep.
"Finally! Okay, I'm going to take a shower now, so stay awake." she said, while walking into the bathroom.
I got up, grabbed my clothes, and headed to the bathroom across the hall to take my own shower.
After the shower I brushed out my long chocolate colored hair and pulled it into a side ponytail, with a few pieces down framing my face. Then I pulled on a gray sleeveless turtle neck, black cardigan, brown tights, black skirt, and black ankle boots. After I was dressed and was about to leave the bathroom I caught my reflection in the mirror, I looked at my face and noticed that the circles under my eyes had disappeared (Wolves heal and recharge very quickly), leaving only my dual colored eyes to stare back at me. I had always disliked my eyes, one green, one blue, and had only gotten used to them after my first Shift into a Wolf (I kinda had more important things to worry about, like the fact I turned into a, slightly larger then average, dog). While I was looking at my reflection I decided to put on some dark brown mascara, and then lightly dusted my high -but pale- cheekbones with a peach blush, then I left the bathroom and headed to the kitchen.
I parked my car in the student lot, then Jinx, Erin, and I all got out of my beat up old black pick-up (it was my dads, he gave it to me the day before I left home), I told Jinx and Erin to head for the school while I waited for Victoria to find a parking space for her Harley.
"You ready for this?" I asked, once Victoria had reached me.
"What do you mean?" she asked, with a look of confusion.
"Allow me to clarify." I started, a trace of humor in my eyes, "Are you ready to try and not start any fights?"
She glared at me,
"Is that a yes?"
She nodded,
"Just to be safe... As your Alpha, I'm telling you, control your temper, and please, don't do anything stupid." It is impossible to disobey an Alpha's direct order.
Her eyes widened momentarily, and then she just looked offended (and slightly pissed off).
I hurried to clarify, again, "It's not that I don't trust you, it's just that... Your Wolf has a tendency to get ticked off easily."
"Fine. I promise not to get in any fights." she grudgingly promised.
"Good." I said, then I started for the school with Victoria on my heels.
