Ch 22: Kamron
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56“Kamron!” The shout came from behind me as I was walking toward my bus stop. I turned to find a petite girl with dirty blonde hair, a bright smile, and freckles across her nose. Cute, but not Rose.
“What’s up, Amanda?” I asked. I suppose she’s going to ask me to the spring dance, and I still haven’t figured out what to tell her. I wanted Rose to ask me, but she didn’t, and I’m too much of a pansy to ask her. I had wanted to ask Rose to the winter formal in January, but chickened out. Jeremy tried to hide it by asking Kimi to the dance and suggesting we double. Damn, I have a good friend. In the end, I asked Hannah Goldstein. It was fun, but not as much fun as I would have had with Rose, and then I had to figure out a nice way of letting Hannah know that I wasn’t interested in more than friendship.

Damn Kamron. He just had to tell Amanda he’d go to the spring dance with her, and then he just had to accuse me of jealousy! Ugh! I hate that I’m thinking of one of my best friends in that way! Maybe I should have asked him, but I still don’t want to ruin our friendship. I had done some thinking after I realized how I feel about him, and I decided that having him as a friend is way better than not having him at all. Stupid logic.Nate and I walked into science the day after Amanda asked Kamron to the dance to find Kimia staring into space. She looked stunned, and a bit pale. Something was wrong, and I was going to find out what it was.“Kimia, are you there?” I waved a hand in front of her face.“Huh?” she said.

“I fucked up.” I closed my locker and found my sister with her head against the locker next to mine.“Hello to you too,” I said.“Rose is mad at me.”“Why is Rose mad at you?” It was rare for the two of them to fight, although Kimi usually got mad at Rose for something stupid, not the other way around.“I asked Simon to the spring dance,” Kimi sighed.“And Rose wanted to ask him first?” I asked, confused.Kimi glared at me with one eye. “No, but she asked Nate so I wouldn’t have to go alone and be nervou

Kamron was kissing me. I let myself get enchanted by his gray eyes, and his thumb left my lips a little tingly, but his lips! His amazing warm lips! They were on mine, and his eyes were closed. I froze. I had no idea what to do for a second. Eventually, my eyes closed, and my lips relaxed. I focused on the sensations he caused.His kiss was soft, and warm. He gently cradled my head in his large hands, and began to part his lips against mine. I mimicked his actions, and felt myself sigh. I could feel his lips quirk up a bit before returning their focus. As far as first kisses go, I would have to say this was amazing!A rhythmic whacking against my leg brought me back to reality. I broke the kiss to look down at Kimia. She looked way too pleased for a wolf. I can’t believe I forgot about her. I could feel the blush rising i

I was grinning like an idiot the rest of the day after I’d kissed Rose. I couldn’t believe she’d kissed me back! Kimi, Rina, Mina, and Mom all teased me when Kimi announced the reason I was in a good mood at dinner. I was too happy I’d finally manned up and kissed Rose to be too embarrassed by my family.Kimi was the one who brought me back to earth before bed. “Thanks for distracting Rose from being mad at me. That kiss was genius.”Did Rose think I kissed her to distract her? “Yeah. No problem. Anything for you.”“And you should thank me for talking Rose into joining your group for the dance.”“You talked her into it?” I was confused. I though

They had decorated the gym to look like a tacky Hawaiian forest. They had fake greenery all over the walls, bright streamers, and exotic looking fake flowers. The tables that held the water and punch were lined with fake grass, a DJ was set up at one end with colored laser lights.Nate had been a bit of an octopus during the date, but I sort of expected it. Kimia hadn’t seemed to need much help with Simon. He appeared to be enjoying spending time with Kimia. There was some chemistry there.Nate pulled me onto the dance floor, and he was a pretty good dancer. “Having fun, beautiful?” he asked.“Well, I’m not not having fun,” I teased him. I really don’t want to encourage them, especially after that kiss from Kamron last week. Th

Kimi helped Simon to his door. He looked very tired, but when he tried to kiss Kimi, she let him. She handed him off to his parents at the door, and came back smiling. “That looked like it went well,” I said.Kimi briefly smiled. “He told me that he had fun, and kissed me.” Her face got serious, “I had to tell his parents what happened with the punch. They were worried, and I don’t think Simon will remember kissing me.” Rose reached over to her and grabbed her hand.I took Amanda home next. This is always the worst part of a date with someone I’m not interested in. Either they wait for something I’m not going to give, or they stomp off in a huff. I think Amanda is the waiting kind. There’s hope in her eyes as I walked her to her door.
Graycorts Ch 29: Nate
I never expected to enjoy living in a small town. Hell, there isn’t even a proper hospital here. Don’t get me wrong, I love Boston. I miss it like crazy. Uncle Micky was like a father to me once my own pop went to jail. Not to mention my cousins sure knew how to have fun. Still, after living in Aspen Falls for a month, I couldn’t go back full time. Rose and Kimi are right. Wolves weren’t meant to be cooped up.I followed Kimi’s brown wolf through her family’s trails toward my house. That bitch is a hottie. If I hadn’t set my sights on Rose that first day, I seriously would have considered casing her as a fuck buddy. Still might, if she wasn’t a virgin like her brother. I stayed behind her amazing ass as we ran, and just admired her. I’d never fucked as a wolf before, and I kind of wonder what it’d be like. I guess we’re both vi

Kamron and I waited for a while for Kimia to come back, but she was gone longer than expected. Kamron looked like he had fallen asleep on my lap, and my eyes began to droop as well. Eventually, I nudged him, and woke him up. “We should go inside.” He got up and went to the door.I let us in, and followed him up the stairs. His door was open, and I followed him in. I didn’t want to wait for Kimia alone. He must have noticed because he didn’t change his shape, just jumped onto his bed and gave me a look that was very inviting. I smiled at him, and laid down next to him. I tried to stay awake, I really did, but my eyes closed and my arm was curled around Kamron’s furry body.I woke up to the feel of fur next to me, and Kamron’s distinct smell was surrounding me. I didn’t open my eyes though. I r

“Fuck,” I swore as Ray kicked my ass at Mario Kart. Ray chuckled with both hands in the air. “Suck it, pup! I finally won for the first time since you were ten!”I tossed the controller and ran my hands over my face. Game nights at the frat house and losing to my brother were the least of my worries. Rose had been officially charged with manslaughter, and bailed out until her trial in a few weeks. At the advice of her lawyer, Rose and her mom signed a temporary lease at another apartment complex. Something about not sleeping with the victim’s family.“You are off your game, bro,” one of my frat brother’s slurred. “Nobody beats Kamron the Machine.”Ray bumped my shoulder. “He’s right. You’re stressing more than usual.”“Maybe because Rose has been avoiding me,” I sighed. Garrett, a sophomore, shook his head. “You must be reading too much into it. That girl is head over heels for you. She’s probably just overwhelmed with her trial and shit.”I shook my head. “I’ve known her my whole l

“Come on back, and we’ll have you give us a urine sample, then Rina will draw some blood samples to make sure your baby is okay,” Deb’s voice filtered through the office to my station. It’d been a little busier this month, but that was to be expected a few weeks after Spring Break. Lots of little surprises.“R-rina?” a familiar voice stammered. “Rina works here?” Elli and Deb rounded the corner to my space, and I had the sample cup ready with the alcohol wipes.“I sure do, Ellie,” I replied. “Congratulations. The bathroom is right through that door, and I’ll be here ready to draw your samples when you’re done.” I pointed to the door of the restroom where our expecting mothers give their samples every time they come in.Deb looked between us. “You two know each other?” I shrugged. “Small school, and we spent Spring Break together in Mexico.”Elli was pale and shaking a little as she grabbed the cup she was supposed to pee into, then made a b-line for the bathroom. Deb leaned over to m

“Now, Kimi,” Dr. Mayfeld started on our bi-monthly telesessino, “have you and Nate talked about finding a couples therapist to help the two of you transition into parenthood?”I shook my head. “Not yet. We will, but between school and my cousin’s demise, we haven’t exactly made it a priority.”“I understand,” she nodded. “I hate to say it, but you and your friends have gone through one hell of a year. Are you sure you aren’t cursed?”I laughed. “If I believed in curses, I might think that too. I mean, it is possible that Kirsten cursed us when she went to prison.”“Seriously,” she calmed down, but still smiled, &ldq

My parents knocked on our apartment door a few hours after we’d come home from the station. I really appreciated Kimi telling off Kam for me. It was the weirdest feeling. I was almost out of my body for most of the afternoon. It was a little surreal. I also both wanted to be hugged and cuddled, but I also wanted to be left alone.I kept thinking that it was my fault a person was dead. Yes, Matty was a horrible person who attacked me, but I didn’t want him dead! Call me optimistic, but I hoped for him to pay for his crimes, then come out a better person who had learned to respect others.I’d spent most of my time in my room, and barely registered when my mom walked in and sat on my bed. “Oh, my sweet Rose,” she sighed and pushed my curls out of my face. “I am so sorry you have to go thro

“Shit hit the fan, and I’m at my sister’s for a few days,” I explained to Elli over the phone.“I can’t believe all that has happened,” Elli replied. “Is Rose okay?”I sunk into my sister’s couch and sighed. “I honestly don’t know. They hadn’t returned by the time I cleared out. I hope her parents don’t find my room disgusting.”“Why wouldn’t they just get a hotel?” Elli asked.The question confused me. “I’m sure they could, but their daughter just killed a guy in self defense. She kinda needs all her family around her now.” Then a thought occurred to me. “Were you thinking about

“I want to see my fiance. I need to know she’s okay,” I shouted at the officer at the front desk of the police station.Kimi put a hand on my shoulder. “Kam, calm down. They have to go through the hoops. Besides, Officer West sounded like someone who is fair.”I spun to face my sister. “My fiance and your best friend is back there by herself, probably scared to death, and the only people available to her are people in our uncle’s pocket. I’m not going to calm down until I know she’s safe!”“Kam, you making a scene isn’t going to get her out here faster,” Nate tried to reason. He turned to the officer. “Is there someone who can come out and tell us what happened?”

Blake finally managed to push the door to the men’s room open. He broke the lock in the process, but the screaming he heard terrified him. He regretted not being faster when he observed the scene.A man was lying under a broken urinal with eye wide open, and unfocused. His jaw was slack, and a shocking amount of blood was pooled under his head. He looked back out into the hall, and grabbed a random student. “Call 911, and get someone here, now!”The student glanced into the bathroom. “Holy shit!”Blake carefully walked around the body to the woman shuddering in a ball against the wall of the open stall. “Hey,” he said gently. “Are you okay?” He reached a hand to her shoulder, and she flinched.

“Welcome back, everyone,” Professor Anderson greeted the class when she walked into the room. “I hope everyone had a fun, safe spring break? I see we’re still missing a few people. Hopefully they return before the next class. In the meantime, please go to the class webpage.”I already had it up, so I just scanned the page looking for what I expected her to click. I found it under the assessments tab. “I would hope you all are intelligent enough to find what I’d like you to do today, but in case you’re hung over, or not up to your best mental state, find the assessments tab, and click on the test titled, ‘Post Spring Break Quiz.’“The password is capital ‘I’ underscore, paid, underscore, too, with two ‘o’s, underscore, much, underscor

The apartment in Gayl was becoming more and more like home to me. Walking through the apartment door Sunday before school started felt like a weight was lifting off my shoulders. Granted, Kimi and I still needed to finish the nursery for our little girl, and we still had school, but we were happiest here. At least I was, anyway.I guess Kimi wasn’t as happy. She waddled into our room, and fell onto the bed on her back. “Ugh,” she grunted, “would you be offended if I said I miss the bed in Boston?”I chuckled. “Not at all. It was a damn comfortable bed..”“Much bigger than this full size one,” she said and rolled over so she could sit up. “I swear if this little girl gets much bigger, we’ll need a bigger bed.&r
