The Alpha Chose Me

For once I didn't wake with what felt like the world on my shoulders. For the first time in a long time, I was excited about the day ahead. I was awake with the birds had already showered and was currently sitting on the porch watching the sun rise. I did plan to go for a run, but the weather wasn't great. It wasn't raining but the sky didn't look promising, and I didn't want to chance it. I finished what was in my cup before heading back inside.

Jake was still asleep, but I know he didn't get in until late. After he dropped me home, he went back out to do the night patrol with Rocco. Speaking of Rocco night patrol is all he seemed to do.

Maybe he preferred it? I don't know. Sighing I washed out my cup leaving it to dry on the dish rack. I was excited about tonight but a little nervous to. I had never patrolled through the night before. Come to think of it I'd never patrolled at all.

What if something went wrong?

No, nope. I was not going to do that today. I wasn't going to overthink something that hadn't happened yet. I was going to show Jake and everyone else that I could do this and that I was capable. By the time he woke I made breakfast and by that, I mean I went to the coffee shop and picked up bagels and coffee.

"You make these?". He grinned.

I shook my head. "Do you remember the last time I tried to make something?".

A laugh fell from his lips. "It was a great effort though". Placing a kiss on my forehead his hands found my waist as he gently pulled me towards him. "What have you got planned for today?". "I was thinking of dropping by the college".

"Yeah?".

I nodded. "Do you think I'm wasting my time?". I enrolled weeks ago and still hadn't heard anything.

"No". He frowned. "I think it'll be good for you".

"I think so to". I smiled.

After we ate breakfast, and I convinced Jake that I would be okay to go on my own I set off. If I needed him for anything I was to call. I think he was more worried about me driving his truck than anything else.Têxt belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

I sometimes think he loved the truck more than he loved me.

I smiled when I pulled the sun visor down. He had a picture of us stuck up in there looking all cute. If I remember correctly, it was from the night at the beach where we all played truth or dare.

Thankfully, he didn't look through my phone that night. A laugh fell from my lips at the memory.

Starting the engine, I reversed out the driveway and took off down the street. Surprisingly, I wasn't as nervous as I thought I'd be driving a car again. The accident wasn't going to stop me. Although I still didn't think it was an accident. Proof or no proof I know Jessica was involved.

Sighing I put it to the back of my mind and drove to the college.

..

I sat in the car for god knows how long. I didn't have the courage to go inside. Was being here a mistake? Was it a waste of time? What if I didn't get accepted?

"It's community college surely everyone gets accepted?". I muttered.

I swear I was my own worst enemy at times.

I wasn't going to find out anything from sitting here. Unbuckling my seat belt, I grabbed my purse and got out of the truck. I could do this I had nothing to be nervous about. Was I even nervous?

The school year hadn't started yet so I doubt any students would be here. Well unless they had the same idea as me. I stood by the entrance still not sure I wanted to go inside. Could I really see myself going here?
