Two best friends

When Everyone was done training Angelina remained behind practicing.

"I don't get why you need to train so much." Layla walked looking all kinds of disgusted as her fancy shoes met the filthy ground.

"I don't get why you don't need to train so much." I said.

" Ugh!! Because I'll have to phase." She frowned as her heel got stuck in the ground.

"That's the whole point."

"Exactly and I just got my hair done. What do you think." She smiles flipping back her pink and black hair. The base of the hair was black and it faded to pink towards the end. It looked really nice.

"Layla look at my hair." I pointed out my raven black hair. "How's it still not messed up?" I sighed at how weird she was walking on the ground. "And it's just grass if you didn't know, I don't understand why you're walking like that." Then she rolled her eyes. We finally reached the big log that was lying across the field. I sighed as we sat down. She's always so radiant. Her lavender smell , it's so amazing. It reminds me of when we were kids they use to call us flower girls. How she smelt like lavender and I was the rose. That's how we became best friends.

"Is something bothering you?" She looked concerned for a moment.

"I'm fine." I said looking between the woods.

" Angie I know when something is bothering you , you're my friend."

" I promise you I'm fine." I added.

"Okay that means you don't wanna talk about it now. You can tell me later."

I rose up from the trunk and walked towards the trees.

"Where are you going?"

"To take a walk." I continue walking away.

" I would join you but I don't think… my shoes are fit for the occasion."

" That's okay." I glanced at her then continued with my walk.

" I'll see you later. And we'll talk." I heard her walking away , cursing as she does. Well she was the reason I needed a walk anyway. How can I tell her that Jake is my possible mate? I know Layla had a crush on him since we were young. I didn't want to break her heart and I didn't know how to tell her.

Then I suddenly felt my phone vibrate in my pocket. I took it out and checked it. It was a message from Layla.

"HEY CHECK OUT." The text written in bold letters and a picture below.

"What?" I rolled my eyes as I saw a picture of Jake , 'shirtless'. I give it to him he has quite the body and handsome too.

"Wow cool!" I texted back. "Just nice." I said as I threw the phone back in my pocket. I walked around the woods until it was late night. The cold breeze and wet smell of the earth really relaxed me.

I went back to the pack house later that night. I took my food to bed as I found everyone already done eating. I ate my cold dinner and took a shower , right after I went to sleep. More often I think about Jake. I wonder if he thinks about me too. Does he know?

I see the way he's been seemingly acting normal around me. Maybe it's not right , Maybe he's not actually my mate , is he?

Jeez I didn't know finding your mate could be so complicated. That's why I didn't want mates from the first place. I frown as I stare at my ceiling.

Beep!Beep! I hit the off button immediately, almost breaking the alarm. It was time to wake and prepare for school. I forced myself out of the bed and went to the bathroom. After I took a long pee and mostly dozing in the toilet seat I went to the shower. I agree waking up was the hardest part for me.

I walked out of the shower feeling a lot better. I wore my high wasted black tights , a long sleeve top and my black boots. I fixed my hair and was ready to go. I found Layla already waiting for me outside.

"Way to show off your curves." She shoved me slightly in my chest.

"You're the one to talk?" I don't think she noticed that she was actually wearing a tight mini skirt.

" Thank you." She put her arm around me and we walked to her car. She usually drives me to school , only because she doesn't allow anyone else to drive her unless it's a boy. Sometimes I just don't understand her.

And the fact that she can turn anything to a compliment.

She both drove us to school as always. Filling me in with all the gossip, at least I didn't have to watch the news.

"So what do you think? This picture or this picture?" She shows me two pictures that she's been editing.

"Do you really need all the editing? Coz I mean you still look pretty beautiful." I looked at the well edited pictures and I didn't see any difference between them.

"Thank you darling but the pictures… they have to look perfect for my gram. So which one?" She shows me the pictures again.

" Mmmh? This one. Yeah this one." I had to pretend that I didn't actually just pick a rondom photo. I mean I still saw no difference.

"Jane come here!" She called the pretty girl walking by. "which picture should I choose?" She also shows her the pictures.

" This one." She slightly glanced at me confused , I only smiled in return.

"Okay this one it is." We walk down the hallway towards the lockers. "Are you sure though?"

"Huh?"

"The pictures."

" Ohh! Yeah I'm pretty sure." Then she starts fiddling through her phone. I rolled my eyes in my head as I opened my locker. I took out a few books for my next class and closed it again.

"So you wanna talk about it?"

"Talk about what?" I asked in confusion.

" The thing that was bothering you. We said we were going to talk about it."

" No you said we were going to talk about it." I stared her deep in her eyes.

" Angie."

"Okay fine." Then I felt him , his presence so magical. His scent calling me to him. My body tensed immediately.

"What?" She looked at the direction of my eyes. Jake Was coming towards us.

"How do I look?" Layla quickly fixed herself as he approached.

"Hey Angie." "Hey Layla."

"Heeey Jake." She said with a sly smile waving at him. "Doesn't he look dreamy?"

"He does , doesn't he? Look Lyla there's something I need to tell you."

" I'm listening." She mockingly shows me her ear.

" Sigh! I think maybe Jake is my mate." She firstly looks at me surprised and then starts laughing.

"That can't be true. If anyone is Jake's mate , it's me. I think maybe there's an error." She pointed out.

" This is not a technical issue Layla."

" C'mon. You're not even into this mating stuff. Why would the Moon Goddess mate you with Jake anyways?"

" Yes I'm not into it but it's my Wolf. And I don't know why."

" Nah I don't believe it. We should get going , we're going to be late for class." Even though Layla was acting normal , I knew she wasn't fine. I knew she believed it and she didn't take it so well either.

I know the error she was talking about , she didn't mean it. I knew she was afraid of me being with Jake. I could feel her energy change drastically, she wasn't so radiant anymore. I sighed quietly as I walked to my class.
