Chapter 10-Mate 2
Lexy
Omg what did I just do! I can’t believe I kissed him. I’m in total surprise of myself ‘Mates kisses are good’ Leila said excitedly and purred. “Wow. That was amazing” he said with a big smile. I know my face looks like a tomato but after he said that I know there was no describing the shade of red I turned. But I can’t help to stare at his amazing smile. What’s wrong with me? Why am I losing my senses with him. ‘He’s our mate duh’ Leyla decides to answer my thoughts with huge sarcasm.
Right when I get my mind right he gets close to me. I don’t know what came over, but I pulled him to me and kissed him again. He wrapped his arms around me, and I melted to him. I felt hot and cold at this sensation, at the feelings taking over me. We pulled away in shock and breathing heavily.
“What would you like to do today mate?” asks CJ snapping me out of my head. “Uhm, what did you say?” I responded confused. “What would you like to do today mate?” he said smirking. ‘Mate is so amazing’ Leila says while drooling. “Well, I must go home. Haven’t been there since last night.” I look away as I respond. “How about I take you home, you get ready, and we go out?”
“I have my bike here. I’ll take myself home.” He looks at me like I have an extra head. “You have a bike? Like a motorcycle? That’s awesome” he says excitedly. I couldn’t help but blush at his response. “Yeah, is pretty sweet. Maybe I’ll give you a ride on it someday” I said with a smirk. Am I flirting right now? I question myself. How am I? ‘Mate makes all our sides come out. Our true selves’ Leyla says excitingly. ‘He makes us better.’
He walks me outside to the packhouse where my bike was parked at, and his jaw drops as he looks at my bike. “You weren’t kidding when you said you have a bike. Am I still picking you up to go out or are you going to meet me at the spot?” he says with a side smirk. “How about I get ready and come back and meet you here?” I say as I hop on my bike. He gets closer to me and holds me by the chin and lifts my face to look at him. As we lock eyes he leans in and kisses me slow and sweetly. He left me speechless again. “I’ll see you here in 2hrs then. Be safe.” He plants a small kiss and backs off. I shake my senses and turn my bike on and put on my helmet. As I drive off I can see him smirking through my sideview mirror. Seeing him like that gave me butterflies. He was messing with my senses. I shook my head and kept riding home.
I arrive at my house and before I open the back door, I can hear my mother arguing with her new boyfriend. I can’t even remember what his name is. I decided to go in through my window to avoid being in the middle of whatever it is they are fighting about. Once I’m in my room, I close the window behind me and head for my closet. I’m trying to figure out what to wear. I decided to go with above the knee black jeans shorts with my favorite spaghetti strap green top and a black crop top black jacket. I headed into the shower. I’m so glad my mom got a place with our own bathrooms. After getting cleaned up and dressed, I do my hair in 2 braids and put some lip gloss before heading into my closet and grabbing my black boots. As I’m leaving the house my mom stopped me at the door.
“Where have you been?” she said with an attitude. “In my room until now” I say with a bit of sarcasm. “Don’t think you’re funny. Where were you all night?" “I got home late and been in my room since. Do you need something mom?” “Never mind. Make sure you get home by 8. We need to talk” she sighs. “Why don’t you just tell me what’s going on?” I responded with a sigh. “Look I don’t want to fight with you too. Just enjoy your day and we can talk later” she said exhausted and turned around to walk into her room closing the door behind her.
She left me dumbfounded. I didn’t know what to say or how to react. Not like she gave me a chance to say anything. I decided to ignore her weird attitude and walked out the door. I just couldn't wait to see him. Neither could Leila.
