One Day, I Woke Up A Werewolf novel Chapter 18

Hailey's POV

Saying goodbye to Jaxon is always so hard. I know it's healthy to give each other space and I like sitting in my room just daydreaming about him but nothing beats being in his presence.

Nothing actually compares to his warm hugs that make everything better. How his smile makes me all giddy and I just want to dance around knowing he is smiling like that because of me.

"So, this is it..." Jaxon says to me as he parks the car. We were right outside the restaurant I agreed to meet Theodore.

"Come with me." I say and Jaxon's eyes grow wide.

"I don't think that's a good idea right now. You two need to bond and build a relationship together, without him giving you relationship advice. Dad's will always think that there is no man in the world that deserves their daughters heart." Jaxon tells me.

"Okay okay fine. After some time then you'll meet him." I say. Jaxon groans before kissing my lips.

Seconds pass and I feel my body reacting to him. Excitement building up, a tingly feeling down south that has me wishing we could go further but Jaxon pulls away once again. As if he read my thoughts and knew to pull away..

"I'd also like to keep my head thank you. Your dad is one scary man, sorry babe." He jokes but I roll my eyes at him. I don't know how he does it but I feel like he's in my head constantly.

I get out of the car and wave back at him. Like a true gentleman, Jaxon waits for me to get inside.. once I've lost sight of him, I focus on what I'm here to do.

Speak to Theodore.

What about you might ask?

How I hear growling in the school grounds after lights out. When I ask the teachers, I'm told there are no wild animals around here. I also hear growling sounds at Jaxon's family cabin but when I ask him about it, he gives me a funny look and changes the subject.

I had made a friend, Thomas. He and I shared the same dream, get good grades and get in to the best college. We spent every day together, sat together in every class and took part in the same extra curriculars.

The other friends I had couldnt really care about Thomas and that worried me. We were all a group, enjoying each other's company but the way they just so easily forgot about Thomas, weird.

The last time I saw Thomas, was two weeks ago. He sent me a text saying he's gone to a new school just closer to home. Did I believe it? No!

Thomas would've sent me a text in code. Also, this was Thomas's dream, the school provided him the tools to make it to his dream college because of it's history of learners and teachers. Now, he goes to a school close to home that probably doesn't have the extra curriculars offered here.
