One Day, I Woke Up A Werewolf

Chapter 2

I walk in to the school's office.

"Hello dear, the restroom is in the opposite direction. You are going go mess up my carpets!" An old

woman shrieks as she runs to me with a hundred tissues in hand.

She wipes my face and hair gently, throwing away every used tissue in the bin. The gentleness in her

actions has me gulp down a sob that was threatening to come out as it reminded me of my mother.

"What happened dear?" She asks.

"A girl in my class. She did this because her boyfriend sat with me during lunch period." I say and she

rolls her eyes.

"Azuri will never learn. Let me get the head mistress for you." She says before throwing me a look of

pity.

Argh I hate that.

I sit down, playing games on my phone as I wait to be called in to the principal's office. A few minutes

go by until I'm called in..

I walk in to an office. The head mistress was not in yet so I remain standing.

"Ah, miss Ferguson. Please, sit down." The lady says to me and I sit opposite the head mistresses

chair.

"I'm head mistress Gellar. What happened to you?" She asks.

"Azuri happened. I would like to know what steps the school takes to combat bully behavior? It is only

my first day and yet I've been subjected to being a punching bag." I say making the head mistress to let

out a sigh.

She presses some sort of buzzer that has the reception lady rush in to the office.

"Call for Azuri." She says and the receptionist nods her head before walking away. The fact that the

school teachers knew it was Azuri without me saying her name was alarming.

"I am sorry you have to go through this. I will sort this out, in the mean time, head back to the dorms

and freshen up." She says and I nod my head.

As I stand up, Azuri walks in. Eyeing me but the head mistress calls her out.

"Azuri, this is the third strike. I'm afraid I'll have to expel you. I'll be calling your parents to come pick

you up and let them know of the different options for home schooling." The head mistress tells her.

I was just through the door before Azuri pulls me by my hair again. Throwing me to the ground, head

first. One could hear the loud thud when my head hit the floor followed by another as the rest of my

body follows.

"Azuri! She's human!" The head mistress says or I think she said that. I was seeing black spots as my

ears were ringing.

I could hear shouting and people running around me. I felt someone carry me, someone with warm

hands as one held my exposed thigh.

"Shhh I've got you now..." the soothing voice said before I blacked out. Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.

I jolt awake, sitting up too quickly making my head hurt. My hands shooting up to hold my head as

events of the day play through my mind. The last thing I remember is Azuri pullinv my hair again.

I look around and see that I'm in my dorm room. I was changed in to my pajamas, my hair did not feel

sticky but boy did my head hurt.

"Here, take this." A voice said. I look to my left and there is Jaxon, holding out two white pills and a

glass of water.

"Who..." I try to say pointing at my pajamas and he chuckles.

"Would it be such a bad idea if I did it?" He asks and my eyes bulge out at the thought of him seeing

me naked.

"Calm down, the school nurse changed you out of your clothes. Look, I'm sorry you had to experience

all of that. I need you to know that she is not my girlfriend, we are just casually hooking up." Jaxon says

and I scoff at him.

"She has feelings for you. Maybe stop hooking up with her if you don't want her acting a fool in the

name of love." I say and he nods his head in agreement.

"Yeah, you're right." He says looking at his shoes.

"Besides, we can never be together together." He says and I raise my eyebrow at that.

"Why's that?" I ask.

"Our families would never allow it. You're new here so there are some things you won't understand but

in time you will. My family is a big deal in this town and school, they would never approve of her and I'm

not in to her like that anyway." He says and I chuckle.

"You are in to her if you are hooking up with her and only her." I say and this time we both chuckle.

"I'm 18 and expected to have a steady girlfriend already so I had given up on finding one. That's when I

started hooking up with Azuri but then you showed up and I was hopeful again." He says.

"You don't deserve all that's happening to you but I'll fix this mess, I promise." He says.

We remain quiet for a few seconds as I digest what he just said.

"What do I have to do with this?" I ask and he stands up, walking to the door.

"I've said too much. Get some rest, the head mistress wants you back in class tomorrow. Good night

Hailey.." Jaxon says before walking out. Before giving me a chance to ask even more questions.

Were these the archaic times? Did I just go through a time warp on my way here?

Although we had wifi here and smartphones so, why would Jaxon's parents want him almost married at

18? My phone rings pulling me out of my head.

"Hello?" I say as haven't read the caller ID.

"Little one, it's Tara. How are you? The school called me about your accident. Should I sue?" She asks

and I chuckle.

My aunt was always the dramatic kind. A very busy woman but successful and still so caring. We don't

talk much but she checks in on me every now and then, also sends me money which my dad uses. He

took my card away after finding out that Tara was sending me money.

"No aunt Tara!" I say and we both chuckle.

"Well I ran in to your father who berated me for sending you money. So it's safe to assume he has your

card too right?" She asks and I groan through the phone.

"I'm sorry Tara. I wanted to tell you but he said not to." I say.

"That's okay. You're almost 18 so your dad won't have a hold on you anymore. Your mother was smart

enough to leave a will and most of the money will be accessible to you when you turn 18 and until then,

I'll take care of you pumpkin. I've sent money to the school, let me know when you receive it okay? Go

shopping and treat yourself. Decorate that awful dorm room and change your style, also have you

thought about trying out for modeling now? You won't have that figure forever you know? Trust me. I

thought I'd be lucky...but who knows, your mother had a body even in her old years." Tara starts talking

and if I don't cut her off, she'll go on and on.

"Tara, I took these pills.." I say.

"Oh look at me blabbing on and on! Get some rest pumpkin, text me okay? I love you." She says

before the line goes dead.

I feel alone most of the time and even though aunt Tara checks up on me and takes care of me, it

doesn't ease the pain that my father couldn't care about me or that my mother died.

Her love will never compare to that of my mother's but I will forever be indebted to her. For still caring

even though she has her own family to worry about.

My thoughts are interrupted by a giddy short girl running in to my room.

"Don't you knock?" I ask and she giggles.

"Not when we all just saw Jaxon Gellar leave your room after spending hours in here!" She says.

"Gellar? As in head mistress Gellar?" I ask and the girl nods enthusiastically.

"Wait, he was in here all day?" I ask and the girl nods her head again.

"He was fussing over you. Telling the nurse what to do. He actually had the nerve to order her around

and what's funny is, she did as she was told! He ordered her to wash you up, waited outside while she

did that and never left your side right after. Must be nice to be so pretty hey?" She asks and I look at

her confused.

"What?" I ask..

"Well, you just arrived and snatched Azuri's boyfriend. All the girls are calling you The Wrecker. It's

trending on ChatPax." She says grabbing my phone and downloading the app.

We sit together creating my profile and within minutes I was in their schools app. I mean, why couldn't

they use the apps we all use around the world?!

The girl left me alone as I read all the comments about me. How I stole Jaxon from Azuri and that I

should've been the one to be expelled.

Wtf?!

I bang my phone on my nightstand as anger washes over me. I was not a wrecker, I was far from it. I've

never even had a boyfriend or done anything kids my age have done at the sweet age of 13. I'm almost

18 and I'm a virgin in every sense!

How could I be a homewrecker!?

I pull the covers over my head as I force myself to sleep. If I'm going to survive tomorrow, I'll need sleep

and two cups coffee but first sleep.

I can grill Jaxon tomorrow and have him make things right.
