This is what I think Soj would look like...
===========================
"What is it, I wonder, that they hope to Correct? I am what I am, irredeemably, irretrievably, implacably — as are most of my fellow desperadoes here."
That night, I didn't dream at all. I woke up before Sajie. She seemed surprised to see me awake and looking better. I told her nothing bothered my dreams last night. So, I was able to get tons of sleep. Finally.
I was getting ready for school, when I bumped into my nightstand. This was nothing new, I am majorly clumsy. I picked up a small picture frame, I knocked over.
It was a picture of me taken when I was 12, I was holding a dog. It was a stray, I found in our backyard wondering about, its fur was soft and thick just like a cuddly stufftoy. I only had it for a week since my dad said he found its owner.
I was devastated. But thinking about it made me realize that things were more simple then than it is now. My thoughts started to wonder towards Aiden.
If he challenges Tayler, the alliance will break. How will the council even react to it? I decided to park the question when I saw Sajie scowling at me.
"Ahhrgg! I hate that picture!" She said contemptuously, glaring at the picture I was holding.
"Why are you so hateful, even at 12 years old you still want to mock my appearance?" I grumbled.
"Im not talking about you, you idiot! Im talking about that!" She was pointing directly at the dog.
"What you hate dogs now?" I snapped back. I didnt know what her deal is, she never even saw the dog. She was at camp. So I was clueless where her agression was coming from.
She was even more annoyed when Adam walked in the room and began laughing. He was also staring at the picture. Was he laughing at me? What the hell... Was he huffing spray paint or something?
"Not you! Her!" Adam pointed at Sajie still laughing his heart out. Was there an inside joke that only Adam knew?
"That is not a flattering picture of me" Sajie implied on the picture I was holding. I gave them both a confused look.
Adam started to explain. Apparently, the camp Sajie went to was a finishing school to learn all about the Eventide world. The last lesson was transformation. Sajie had no problem turning into a wolf, her problem was changing back to human form. It took her a little longer to figure it out when I found her in the backyard and adopted her as my dog.
I tried to stop myself from laughing, but I couldn't help it. I kinda felt happy that from all the insults I got from my sister I was able to get her back. I fed her dog food for a week. No wonder that dog was temper mental, it was my sister. It tried to bite me several times when I called it by its name.
"Pookie! Of all the names you had to name me Pookie!" Sajie blustered out.
"I was 12 what did you expect" I said still laughing my ass off.
"Even dad thought it was funny and allowed you to treat me like a pet. The things I do for you guys" she said shaking her head.
All our laughter died down when my dad reminded me of the time and that I still had school. My sister, who promised she'd ask her other friends to look out for me arranged a carpool.
Dad also thought it was a good idea and about time I started hanging out with the other wolfbloods. I met up with Woody, Charmaine and Bullet. I was reacquainted with them during the council meeting briefly. We were not able talk much since a lot was going on.
"It's good that you know about us now" Charmaine said breaking the ice as I got in the car.
"Yeah, good thing we don't have to attend meetings at that nasty old barn, it's always a long hike" Woody said.
I knew where it was, I always thought it was haunted since it was isolated at the end of town. I had no idea it was used to hold council meetings.
"So whats your ability, you must have one..." Bullet said with curious eyes.
"What abilities?" I asked. In my mind, I was thinking if Bullet was asking about my talents. Well, I didn't have any but I can stuff my face with nachos all day, if that counts.
"Well, wolfbloods have superhuman abilities, not as great as the wolves but then again big advantage for us" Bullet explained.
Woody must have noticed me cringing my forehead. Then he stated that they weren't even aware of it till later on. So my ability might turn up anytime soon.
Charmaine gave me a wink, and told me what type of abilities they had. It was very interesting. Charmaine had super human memory. No wonder she had won every academic challenge given to her, she was super smart.
She also told me that being paired with a wolf, specially if their soulmates, have a very deep connection. The wolf is able to use the wolfbloods abilities, sometimes even hear their partners thoughts.
Woody on the other hand had eagle vision, which is 20x more acute than the normal humans. He was the captain of our basketball team. Everytime he shoots, he scores. He says he misses a couple of shots on purpose just to avoid suspicion.
Bullet, had photographic memory, and he is a very gifted artist, he'd be able to draw what he saw in perfect accuracy and detail.
I was completely astonished by them. They weren't as stuck up as I thought they'd be. They were actually nice and I was looking forward to hang out with them more soon.
"New friends?" Lorraine said jokingly, as she saw me getting out of Woody's car.
"Yeah, their cool, I promise" I smiled and led Lorraine to our first class.
I knew that all good things came to end but this was too soon, I saw Tayler in class. I had no choice but to sit in front of him. Those seats were the last ones available if I wanted to sit beside Lorraine.
She pretty much aced Spanish which was the subject I needed help the most. So, I always sat beside her. Our Spanish teacher came in and started with her lessons.
Lorraine being Lorraine, was busy checking Tayler out. He was still looking smug and arrogant as always.
I could hear Tayler snickering, he was tugging my hair a bit and kept on calling me peanut. I tried to ignore the fool but he kicked my chair. And whispered...
"Where did you go last night, peanut?"
"None of your business dickhead!" I wasn't aware that my voice came a little louder than I thought. Tayler chuckled leaning forward, I could feel him literally breathing down my neck. He countinued to pull my hair.
I got pissed, so pissed, I spun around and stared directly at his face and furiously said...
"Never touch me Blaylock, I swear I'll beat the living shit out of you"
This made him laugh even more.
"You can try peanut, but I seriously doubt you can"
In my rage, I kinda forgot I was in class and gave him the finger, my middle finger. Lorraine was stunned, wide eyed watching the whole thing. She never expected me to act like that specially in class.
Our teacher Ms.Michelle who was usually in a good mood approached us with a scowl.
"Do you two have something to share in class" she said frowning at me and Tayler.
" I..ahm.. I" I croaked. Before I could get the words out to explain myself.
"I dont want to know who started it, but you interrupted my class. Both of you are going to detention" Ms. Michelle said still frustrated.
My hatred for Tayler grew to epic proportions, my once clean record was now tarnished. I was not only embarrased but horrified.
After class, Lorraine was staring at me like she wanted me to say something. Well, I couldnt. I was too self conscious to do so.
"Is there something your not telling me? I know I'm crushing on Tayler but its just a crush, it's totally cool if your into him" Lorraine said.
"What!?" I said in annoyance.
Whatever gave her that idea, I don't even know. I spent the rest of the day trying to avoid Tayler. I knew our school was already gossiping about the clash that happened in Ms.Michelle's classroom. It would just drive me crazy to dwell more about something I cant take back. As far as I'm concerned, anything about Tayler is bad news.
The only upside on things is that I had Aiden. But even that had a string of complications. The council, the alliance, my dad then Tayler. I grunted.
The shitshow was ongoing and I was the star. All I had to do was keep it together till class ended. Keep it together, thats right - I repeated in my head.
Our last subject came, I saw Soj seated next to two vacant chairs where me and Lorraine sat. Soj smiled gleefully, greeting me and Lorraine.
"How was the walk on the wild side?" He laughed.
"It was wild indeed. I was there" Lorraine perked up, trying to mask her laughter with a cough.
"I've never seen you so angry before." She added. I tried to play it down, but Soj and Lorriane kept giggling.
"Oh, don't stop on my expense, please continue to remind me of my shame" I said sounding defeated. They convulsed in laughter even with my sarcasm.
I wasn't trying to be funny, but everyone around me keeps on cracking up. Maybe, I should consider a career in comedy.
I shook my head, and covered my face with my hands.
"Tayler is a dick" I muttered.
"A very cute one as a matter of factly" Lorraine said.
I didn't reply to Lorraine, as the feeling of dread came closer. What else could I possibly say? They all though it was hilarious anyway. This was the longest day of my life. As our class finally came to an end, I began the walk of shame, the walk to my destination - DETENTION.
