I had to think of something to say. I want her close to me. What if I frighten her and she doesn’t want me?
“I uh wanted to ask you out? Uh, yeah, ask you out.” Oh boy, was I in trouble. I must look like a total idiot.
Sienna
He was so cute that he seemed to be having trouble saying what he wanted to say. It was hard to believe he was asking me out. I wanted to reach up and kiss his face, which was turning red. I’m sorry, but I’m too short.
I made my choice after looking him in the eyes. This time, I knew Wade wouldn’t be there to watch over me. I could make friends and fall in love. I might love Zayn, and I might already love him a little.
I smiled and said what I wanted to say when I looked up.
“Yes”
“Do you want to go? Yes!” Zayn’s smile was so charming. He started to blush more, which made me blush too. I couldn’t help but want to hug him, so I took a step forward and did it. His strong arms wrapped around me, and my whole body shook with pleasure. I felt safe, but he held me so gently, like I was the most fragile piece of glass. I’ve never been held like this before, at least not that I can remember. I was sure I had made the right choice.
I didn’t want to let go of him. I really wanted to be in his arms. He kept his hands on my hips even when I tried to pull away from him. There was something in his eyes that I couldn’t quite put my finger on. It was a mix of want and need, but there was something else there that made me want to be with him even more.
He took us to class, where we sat down and he sat behind me. A little while later, Theo came into the classroom. He smiled at me and winked like a famous player. I heard Zayn growl at that moment. Like a real growl.
Theo’s face turned pale, and his eyes got bigger as they looked at me. I turned around in my seat to get a better look at Zayn because he and Theo were looking at each other in a strange way. It was like they were talking to scooter without saying anything. It was really strange. That made me turn around and look at the front, where I waited for the class to start.
Zayn’s point of view
During his lecture, Mr. Prescott talked about who knows what, but all I could think about was Sienna. Her strawberry scent was so strong that it made me want to smell it. Finally, my wolf was happy.
I was happy, but I was also angry. Theo kept trying to mind link with me, but I was ignoring him. He was fidgeting in his chair, so I knew he was mad at me for blocking him.
Sienna was taking notes. I looked over her shoulder to see what she was writing, and she was taking notes in perfect cursive. She was so special and amazing; all of her I’s had hearts. That was so cute, damn.
When she turned her head, her blue eyes looked into mine. They were so blue that I got lost in them. They wear eyes I could look into forever and never complain; then they got very wide in shock as she looked away from me.  Why did she turn away?  Coming back to earth, I saw Mr. Prescott frowning towards me.
He was looking at me, waiting for me to answer a question I didn’t hear. I moved out of the way so Theo could ask me the question.
“What is the answer for b?”
I answer the question right away after looking at the board.
“Thirteen to the sixth power is equal to B.”
Mr. Prescott nodded his head in agreement, turned to the board, and then finished his lesson. School is easy for me. I should have graduated a long time ago, but I wanted to stay with my friends. Once I graduate, I won’t be going to college or anything. I am fully and completely responsible for Alpha.
I was ready for it, but I still need a diploma. I was getting my rucksack ready when the bell rang. I got up and stood in front of Sienna. When I startled her a little, her beautiful eyes got big again. She picked up her bag and slowly got up from her desk. I took the chance to hold her hand when she tried to get past me. Her touch sent waves of pure happiness through my body. My big hands fit her small ones perfectly.
“Why-y are y-you holding my hand?” she said with a sigh.
“Because I want to,” I said with a smile.
Her cheeks turned a bright pink colour. I was so tired; this little lady had me wrapped around her finger, and I was happy to be there.
Sienna
I loved how his hand fit perfectly around mine because it was so warm and big. His hands were soft. It felt great to hold onto him and get the tingles. People started to look at us when we left class. Some girls glared at me, while others smiled and cheered me on. I was on top of the world. I was so happy just to be with him.
I looked up at his pretty face and saw that he was looking back at me with his white eyes. He walked me to my science class, and when I was about to go inside, he pulled me towards him and held my hand tighter. I hit him right in the chest, and my whole body lit up with joy. He made me feel so good. He smiled down at me and put his hands around my waist as I looked up at him. He leaned down and kissed me softly on the cheek. It was so sweet and gentle that my face turned as red as a tomato. I said goodbye and walked into chemistry.
The classes I had in the morning went by pretty quickly. My head was spinning all morning. I couldn’t stop thinking about Zayn.
When I got closer to the Sycamore tree, I saw Kayla standing under it, smiling up at me. We waved at each other, put our book bags down, and then walked to the cafeteria. Today was a lucky day for both of us because we got free lunch. It was a spicy chicken sandwich with milk, carrots, and a fruit of our choice. I picked another apple because I thought it looked better than an orange. We had a big chicken nugget between two hamburger buns for lunch.
Even though our food didn’t look good, I was lucky that lunch today would keep me full until tomorrow morning. We went back to the tree, sat down, and ate the rest of our food in silence.
Kayla turned to me and asked, “What are you doing after school today?” She was holding a carrot halfway to her mouth, waiting for a response.
“I have a job interview,” I said with a smile back at her.
We kept talking about nothing and everything. I was so into what we were talking about that I didn’t see Zayn until he sat down next to me.
“Hey, what are you doing outside? No one else is out there,” he asked, his voice full of worry. I don’t get why he was so worried that I was alone. We weren’t really alone because it was just Kayla and me. We were there for each other. I liked being by myself because it gave me time to think.
“Kayla’s with me,” I said, smiling at him and looking at Kayla. She waved shyly and then looked down right away.
