I'm Your Mate
Chapter 28
"You don't have to go to school today if you don't want to." Jace said.
The funeral yesterday went by smoothly. Thank god.
"I know, but I want to. Maybe if I keep myself busy I can keep my mind off of what's been happening lately."
"Sounds good, baby." He said kissing me on the temple. "We should get going before we're late."
I grabbed my purse and made my way out the door behind him.
We pulled up to the school and I hopped out. He came around and grabbed ahold of my hand and we walked into the school together.
"Hey Avery!" Someone shouted from behind me,
I turned and saw the guy from the other night, Justin.
"Hey! I didn't know you went here!" I yelled back.
He came jogging up and stopped a few feet in front of us.
"Yeah I started like last month." He replied, smiling. "I see you fixed whatever problems you had with your boy."
"Yeah." I replied, looking down.
"You told him about us?" Jace asked. He let go of my hand and crossed his arms across his chest.
"No, well, yeah. You were being to over protective and I was mad! I needed someone to vent to!"
"You could always talk to me! Tell me that I'm being over protective and that you need some space!" He yelled.
Some people turned in our direction.
"I try, but it's not like you listen!" I shouted back. By now the entire hallway was looking at us. "I need to go to my first block class. I'll talk to you later or at home."
I ignored him and made my way to my class. My first day of school back and we're already fighting. How great it that. I took a couple of deep breaths to clam myself down. I don't want to be shifting in the middle of the classroom.
"Hey," Someone whispered from behind me.
I turned and saw Justin.
"Oh hey. Sorry about Jace and I fighting." I said.
"It's no problem. Good luck with everything." He replied.
"Avery." The teacher said.
"Yes?"
"The principal would like to see you."
"Alright.." I mumbled. That was weird? Why would the principal want to see me? I haven't done anything wrong, well, except be absent. I wouldn't be called to the principals office for that.
I got out of my seat and made my way out of the classroom. I started walking down the hallway.
Someone grabbed my waist and pulled me into the supply closet. I didn't have time to scream it was so fast.
"I'm sorry about earlier, baby. I hate fighting with you." Jace mumbled into my neck.
I relaxed when I heard his voice.
"So this is the principal's office, huh?" I giggled.
"Yes and you're in trouble." He growled playfully.
~~~
I made my way to lunch alone. Jace and I has different classes during lunch so we couldn't walk there together, but we did have the same lunch.
Once I was in the cafeteria I made my way over to the table he was sitting at. I looked over and saw a girl standing over to him and touching his arm.
I focused my hearing on them.
"C'mon, baby, please. It will be quick. You're girlfriend doesn't have to know." The girl whined.
"Kara, I said no, now leave." He growled.
I walked over to them and put my hand on Jace's shoulder.
"Excuse me, what do you think you're doing with my boyfriend?" I spat, glaring at her.
"Nothing." She smirked.
I squeezed onto his shoulder getting angry.
"Avery, calm down." Jace whispered so only i could hear.
"Oh yeah, I bet nothing was happening." I spat. I could hear my pulse in my ears. My eyes are probably black.
"Actually, he just agreed to come over my house tonight." She lied.
I jumped forward and tackled her to the ground.
"You stupid stupid little girl!" I shouted.
"Derek! Get her out of here!" Jace shouted. I felt myself being lifted off the girl and carried out of th school.
Derek put me on the ground. "Take deep breaths." He said.
"Jace is going to kill me." I whispered.
"He might be mad, but he won't kill you." He joked.
I layed down on the grass and closed my eyes. Why did I have to insist on coming back to school?
"Avery?" Jace asked.
I sat up and looked at him. He didn't seem mad.
"Yeah?" I replied.
"I'm not mad at you. When you first start out It's hard to control yourself." He said.
"Thank you." I replied, smiling.
"Anything for my mate." He smiled kissing me.
"I'm you're mate, forever." I whispered.
"Now let's skip the rest of the day and go out." He stated.
"Sounds perfect!" I said jumping up.
I'm so sorry it's late! Everything is starting to look up for me, but I've been so busy with school. Here it is! The last chapter! The epilouge should be up within a week! Hopefully less. Thank you guys for everything!! xox!
