I'm Your Mate
Chapter 4
"Avery, Avery, wake up" Some said while shaking me.
I opened my eyes and saw Derek sitting on the bed staring at me with concerned eyes. "Why the he// are you waking me up?" I grumbled, sitting up.
There is nothing I hate more than being woken up from my sleep.
"You woke me up, you were yelling and crying. Were you having a nightmare?"
"I don't remember." I replied sighing. "Where's Jace?"
"He had to go take care of some pack issues. He told Cammie to keep an eye out for you, but she sleeps through anything. Even though she has wolf hearing. I heard you yelling so I came rushing in here."
"Well what the he// time is it?" I mumbled rubbing my eyes.
"Around 3 in the morning." He replied laying down next to me on the bed. I felt the heat coming off his body and snuggled closer to him. I looked over at him and saw he wasn't wearing anything but boxers.
"Derek!" I shrieked pushing away from him and almost falling off the bed.
"Don't yell, bunny, people can hear you." He replied sarcastically pulling me close to him again.
"Well, why aren't you wearing clothes!"
"Because this is how I sleep. Did you forget the part where I told you, you woke me up?" He said chuckling.
I turned around so that my back was facing him and kicked off the covers because he was making me sweat.
"Why aren't you wearing pants?" He growled.
"Because this is how I sleep." I said mocking him.
"Do you know what you're doing to me?"
"Apparently not." I sighed closing my eyes, wanting nothing more than to be asleep right now.
"I want to have those sexy legs wrapped around me." He breathed out, his warm breath hitting my ear.
The breath caught in my throat. "Don't say that." I hissed.
He sighed, but didn't say anything. After he said that I couldn't sleep. I just kept tossing and turning. I quietly got out of the bed and tip toed down the stairs. I definitely don't want to wake up a werewolf.
I searched around the kitchen until I found a mug and a tea bag. I made myself some tea and sat down at their huge dining room table.
I've tried running away from my ex boyfriend before, but he always found me. About 2 weeks ago I finally told my parents about what has been happening and that's why we moved here so quickly.
Every night I have a nightmare and I usually remember them, but I wonder why I didn't remember this one.
"Avery, what the he// are you doing up?" Jace growled walking into dining room.
"I was having a nightmate so Derek came rushing in and woke me up. He fell asleep, but I couldn't. I was thirsty so I came down here and made myself a cup of tea." I replied tracing the top of the cup with my pointer finger.
"Derek did. What about Cammie?"
"Derek said she's a heavy sleeper, I woke him up that's why he came into the room." I sighed.
"Did he make a move on you?" He spat.
"What? No? He just made sure I was alright." I snapped getting angry with him. Why is he freaking out because Derek came and comforted me when he was gone.
"He obviously didn't do a good job if you're down here and he's upstairs sleeping. Especially since he's sleeping in my bed. I can hear his snores from here." He took a step towards me. If he gets any closer I'm not going to be able to be mad at him for being so jealous.
"Don't come any closer to me." I warned standing up from my chair.
"Why? What happens when I'm close to you?" He purred taking another step towards me.
I put both of my hands up warning him to stop.
"I can't think straight and I'm supposed to be mad at you for being so angry with Derek. He's only trying to help me. Plus, I have a stronger connection wtih you than I do him."
"What was your nightmare about?" He asked changing the subject.
I ran my hand through my hair. "I don't know. I usually remember all my nightmares since I have one every night, but this one I don't. I have no idea what it was about. They're usually about my most recent relationship and my crazy ex"
"Will you tell me about your relationship?" He asked rubbing his thumb across my cheek.
"Maybe. I'm not ready yet." I replied sighing. "In the cafeteria how come when you were angry and I touched you, you calmed down instantly?"
"I have a strong connection with you and my wolf doesn't want to hurt you." He answer pulling me into a hug. "Can I take you on a date tomorrow after school?"
"Yeah." I said with a smile and wrapped my arms around his body.
How aborbs! I can't wait to write what happends in the date! xoxo!
