The Alpha Chose Me

Slipping my feet into my heeled shoes I put my bag over my shoulder. Abby should be here any minute now. Pete was still here.

Walking into the living room Lana wolf whistled at me. "I love that blazer, I love that it's orange and matches your shoes".

"You don't think it's to much for a football game?". I asked chewing my bottom lip.

"Not when there's a party afterwards". She winked.

"You have a point". I grinned. "You sure you don't want to come?". There was a knock at the door.

"Not tonight I'm shattered".

"It's open". I yelled.

It wasn't Abby.

"Hey". I smiled. "I wasn't sure if you were coming". I thought she would be too wrapped up in my cousin. "Changed my mind". She smiled.

I wondered if Jake had anything to do with that. "I'm just waiting on Abby. She shouldn't be long".

"That's cool. Jake's parked outside anyway, he won't mind waiting".

"Great". I smiled.

Abby arrived not long after Alanna did. I was currently sitting in the back of Jake's car. To say it was awkward was an understatement. You could cut the tension with a knife.

Alanna tried to get me to sit up front the glare I gave her told her to back off. This was between Jake and I. We didn't need anyone sticking their noses in.

"Straight home after the game tonight"....

Glancing at Abby she had her head buried in her phone. Who was he taking to because it certainly wasn't me.

"I'm talking to you". He growled his eyes meeting mine through his rear view mirror.

"Jake don't". Alanna warned.

Abby looked up from her phone her eyes landing on mine. "What the fuck?" She mouthed. Shrugging my shoulders I stared out the window. As we pulled up to the school I was the first to jump out. "Text Ryan, maybe we can see him before the game starts". As we walked round the back of the school to the stands I grinned.

It was packed. The buzz was unreal.

"I'm going to see if I can find him". Abby yelled as we made our way through the crowd. I couldn't believe the turn out. These people took football as serious as the people back home. "You need to be careful". Alanna whispered.

"I haven't done anything wrong". Finding a good seat I made my way along the stand.

"I heard about the fight"..

"Yeah well then you'll know why it happened". I didn't want to have this conversation with her. She was always going to take his side regardless and I didn't blame her for that. She was his sister after all. "He's not like that anymore Leah".

"Can we please not talk about this. We're out, we're having fun. I don't want to talk about Jake".

"You need to talk to him. He's been on edge since it happened. I'm scared in case he lashes out". She did look worried.

"Not tonight Alanna. I've had enough of Jake for one day. I need some space".

"Don't say I didn't warn you".Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.

.....

We were winning by 2 points and there was 3 minutes until the game finished. Jake made his little speech, introduced the team and for the full game has been standing behind me.

Every so often he would place his hand on my back. Of course I ignored it. I told him I needed space, this wasn't giving me space. I jumped in way to quick with him I should have known better. As the buzzer went the full place erupted. Our team won and moved onto the next round.

"We've to meet Ryan outside. He's going to drive to the after party". Abby smiled.

"Go congratulate him. I'll meet you out front".
