Wolf slept well into the afternoon of the next day. Logan decided to let him sleep in and miss his morning classes. By the time he woke up, there was only one more class for the day. He yawned and quickly changed, then grabbed the books he'd need and began to run to class.

He was stopped in the hallway by the overpowering stench of perfume and an annoying giggle.

"Hi Wolf," Karen smiled, stepping in front of him, "What are you up to?"

Wolf stopped and inwardly groaned. "Hi. I'm about to be late for class, so if you don't mind"

Suddenly she wrapped her arms around him in a hug. "Oh, Wolf! I heard about what happened yesterday! Why didn't you tell me you're afraid of water?"

Wolf flinched at the sudden movement and sighed. Now her scent would be on him all day. "You didn't need to know."

"Of course I did," she beamed at him, "Now I can help you get over it! I'll start by giving you a bath, then you'll see there's nothing to be scared of and you're just being silly."

Wolf curled his lip in a slight snarl and gently unwrapped her arms from around him. "No thanks," he said simply, trying to walk past her.

"Oh, don't tell me you're shy!" she laughed, pinning him against a locker, "Don't worry, I've seen lots of guys before. But, if you want me to break the ice" She looked down and grabbed the front of Wolf's pants, making them transparent with her power. She openly stared.

Wolf sighed and crossed his arms, more annoyed than anything. "Are you done?"

She smiled and looked up at him. "Trust me, you have nothing to be ashamed of."

He pushed her hands away. "I'm not interested in you that way," he said to her.

"What are you talking about?"

"I don't want to mate with you," he said bluntly.

She faked a pout. "Aw, why not? Am I not good enough for you?" she asked as she leaned against him, wrapping her arms around his neck. As soon as she let go of his pants, they became solid again.

He flinched and sighed. "When I find a mate, she's going to be mine, and only mine, just like I'll be hers. I'm not going to take the b!tc# of the pack as my mate." He couldn't think of a nicer way to say it.

She stared at him, then let out a giggle. "Oh, I'm sure I'll be able to change your mind about that. I'm going to get you someday, Wolf. But, until then," she kissed his cheek and backed off him, "I'll let you get to class."

He shook his head and walked past her, then began running again. The bell rang seconds before he arrived.

"Wolf, you're late to class again," Scott looked at him, "Remember what I told you would happen next time you showed up late?"

Wolf sighed. Detention, great.

"I'll see you after classes are over, now take your seat."

"Whatever," he growled, going to the back and sitting next to Pyro.

"Bad dog," Pyro snickered, "What kept you? I didn't think you'd sleep that late."

"I didn't," he muttered, "Karen stopped me." He told him what happened.

Pyro stared at him. "You told her that? Wolf, you can't just say that to a girl!"

He shrugged. "She didn't seem to care. Besides, she is one!"

"That doesn't mean you can call her one to her face!" he sighed in frustration. "You're going to get yourself beat up"

"Whatever," he sighed, "I don't care, I just want her to leave me alone."

"Yeah, it doesn't sound like she's going to though. Don't worry, she'll get over you as soon as another new guy comes."

"I hope so," he groaned, putting his head down on his desk.

"As you all know, we will be having a test today," Scott said from the front of the room as he went to his desk to grab the papers. He opened a drawer and stared in confusion, then anger when he picked up a note and began to read. "Wolf and John, come to the front of the class!" he looked over at them.

"What did we do?" Pyro protested.

"My test papers are conveniently gone, but the note you two left me is still here," he held it up, "Now come to the front of the class and tell me where they are and I might go easy on you."

Wolf glanced at Pyro. "When did we do that?" he whispered.

"I was about to ask you the same thing." He looked back at Scott and saw him pick up a ruler. "Wait, we didn't do it!" he paled.

"Lying to me now isn't going to get you out of this," he said sternly, "You two have been acting up in my class too much, and that was the last straw."

Wolf snarled slightly. "Is he gonna spank us?"

"In front of the class, yeah." Pyro groaned.

"No he's not," Wolf growled, giving Scott a threatening glare.

Scott narrowed his eyes behind those glasses. "If you don't come here now, I'll drag you to the front of the classroom and instead of a few hits, you'll get a full spanking. Then you'll have to stand in the corner for the rest of the period. And don't worry; since I don't have any test papers to give out, I don't have any plans for today and you won't be taking up class time at all."

"Listen, dumb$$, we didn't do it!" Pyro said with frustration, "Why would we leave a note for you if we did?"

"Because you two are proud of doing things like that," he walked to their desks and grabbed their arms, pulling them to the front.

"Let go or I'll bite you!" Wolf warned, dragging his feet.

"Bite me and I'm sending you straight to Logan after I'm done with you."

"They didn't do it."

Scott stopped and looked at Bobby, who was standing up. "What?"

"They didn't do it," Bobby repeated nervously, "Jim, Zane, and I did. We wanted to get them in trouble." He didn't look at his friends, who were staring at him in horror, or Wolf and Pyro. He looked straight ahead at Scott.

"I see. Sorry then, boys," Scott said as he let go of Wolf and Pyro. "Class is dismissed. I want to see the three of you in my office right now."

Bobby closed his eyes for a second, then walked with Scott to the office. Jimmy and Zane slowly got up and followed.

Sorry it's been so long, it was finals week and then the holidays. Don't worry though, now that I'm on break I plan to write many more chapters ;)
