Madi's POV

When lunch rolled around I was restless. I found myself anxious to see Blake. When I walked in the the cafeteria, I was rewarded with a bunch of stares.

"I heard that's his mate!" A girl whispers to her friend. I just ignore all of the quiet chattering about me as I walk over to my usually empty table. As I sit down, a delicious scent engulfs my nose. I inhale deeply as the smell gets heavier. When the scent seems to be right next to me I turn to see Blake, standing next to my table. I smile at him. When he sits down I smile even bigger.

This will be fun

I'm pulled out of my thoughts as Blake speaks. "So, we have't really introduced ourselves yet." He holds his hand out for me to shake, "Blake Colten," I stare at his hand.

"Very formal.." I stare at him blankly, shaking his hand anyway. "Madison James, but you can call me Madi for short." He laughs. An angelic sound.

"I just want to get to know you that's all." As we laugh and talk to each other, learning more about our lives, he suddenly appears serious. "What's your story, Madi?" As he ask's me this question I look at him from my peripheral vision, not looking him in the eye. I didn't know what to say.

Blake's POV

When I ask her this question I can see her visibly and mentally tense up. She doesn't look me in the eye, and I can tell I'v hit a soft spot.

"I've already told you my story," she mumbles, "my mom left me and my father when I was 10, leaving me and him all alone." She repeats what she told me not to long ago. I look down at her,

"I know that, but what's your real story? There's got to be more to you then that." She looks ready to speak after about two minutes of intense silence, but the bell rings signaling the end of lunch. I curse silently. She has a smug look on her face as she gets up.

"Well, I'd love to sit and chat but, class awaits!" She says over cheery. I glare at her, playing along with her little 'game'.

"Don't worry, we'll continue this conversation later." She picks up her things as I wait patently for her.

We continue like this for the remainder of the day, Me walking her to class, asking questions, her by my side as it should be, also asking questions. As the last bell rings throughout the school, She walks through her last period door.

"How was class?" I ask her, honestly curious. I have no classes with her therefor not knowing how she behaved in class.

"It was fine I guess- boring no less." She says, carefree expression on her face. I grin at her.

"So, what are you up to?" I ask her. I planned on taking her on a date, but she appeared to have other plans.

"Sorry, but I cant. I've got detention for being tardy to class, and then I've gotta head home. Maybe another time." she says, picking up on my apparent idea.

"Oh," I say, visibly upset. "Alright, another time then." As she heads off to the detention room, I watch her leave.

Once I return home, I send my best friend and future beta Jacob, a message through a personal link. It's a were thing.

I found her man!

Found who? He ask's me, curiosity radiating through his question.

My mate! Who else?

I say, annoyed that he'd even forget. He know's that I've been waiting for her for years.

Oh, well congrats!

I shake my head, laughing softly to myself. I've finally gotten my mate.

The day couldn't be better.
