*Willow POV*
I walk away from the fight and look down at my phone trying to decide what playlist to listen to next. I suddenly crash into a warm wall. A warm wall? I look up as big arms stop me from falling. He places me back on my feet. Wow this guy is strong, anyone would think I weigh nothing with the way he moved me around.
"I am so sorry"
"It's my fault I wasn't watching where I was going"
"Well either was I, so let's just say it was both our faults"
"Okay deal"
I laugh, I am so nervous I think I am going to fall over where I stand. I feel his eyes sizing me up. I want to hide desperately. I am not pretty and I have never been in the presence of someone this handsome and I most definitely have had someone this handsome look at me like that.
I can barely even look at him straight, seriously how can anyone be that good
looking?
"What is you name?"
"Willow"
"That is a very beautiful name"
I can feel my cheeks heating up. Never have I been addressed so nicely by a guy as handsome as him. He is well over 6 foot. Towering over my tiny body. He has piercing blue eyes, short dark hair. A thick neck running down to the biggest muscles I have ever seen. No wonder I thought I had run into a wall. He is huge. I finally managed to stutter out some words.
"W..W..what's your name"
I feel like am not even good enough to be in his presence let alone talk to him. A smile lights up his face bringing a twinkle to his blue eyes.
"It's Sebastian"
Then he grabs my hand and bows as he kisses it. I have literally never seen anyone act like such a gentleman it makes my heart flutter in my chest.
"Very nice to meet you Willow"
"Very nice to meet you too Sebastian"
I look into his eyes. They go blank for a second. Which confuses me but then his twinkle is back.
"Well Willow, I really have to be somewhere. I hope to see you around soon"
"Me too, I mean hope to, I mean I hope to see you around too"
He walks toward the quad. I am so embarrassed why do you have to be such a blubbering i***t? I really hate myself right now. I just stand still hoping the ground will swallow me up. I shake my head and look down, on the ground is a shiny new black phone. I can only assume that Sebastian must have dropped it.
I bend down to pick it up. Maybe I can redeem myself. I turn around to follow him. I see him in the distance talking to some blonde haired guy. I start to walk over to him. But they start walking over to the parking lot. They are so fast. I start jogging over to him yelling his name but he obviously doesn’t hear me.
I see 2 cars drive out one after the other. I sigh and put the phone in my pocket. I guess I will see him tomorrow and hopefully over night I can become a confident person and actually talk to him like a human being not a stuttering mess of nerves and embarrassment.
I kick a stone on the ground before turning around and walking back to my room. It's been well over an hour but they are still going at it. I sigh and walk to my bed lay down, facing away from them and turn my music up louder trying to drown out the moans and the grunts. I must have fallen asleep. I wake to the phone vibrating in my pocket.
*Sebastian POV*
We pull up at the pack house and I run upstairs to change into my workout gear. I meet Tobias back out in the training ring. He has a scowl over his face. I roll my eyes so it is going to be one of those types of days. The day he greets me with a smile on his face, I may fall over dead, it must be exhausting being in a bad mood all the time, I know I am exhausted from looking at his foul expression all the time.
I take off my shirt and throw it to the side. On these types of days I end up very bloody so the less clothing the better. He comes running straight at me. I focus. Block, side step, attack.
After 2 hours of getting pummeled I have had enough.
"Come on Tobias let's go have an early dinner and you can tell me what has put the giant stick up your ass today"
He just snorts but follows me inside. I grab some food and sit down at the table. I start.
"So do you want to talk about it?"
"No I don't"
He snaps as he watches the omegas from the fight walk into his office. He stands up and follows them I call out.
"Do you want any help?"
He just looks at me and glares. I shrug my shoulders and keep eating. I head upstairs and go to grab my phone out of my pants pocket. No phone. I had it when I….. hmmm wait I dropped it when I ran into Willow. A smile crosses my face. I walk into my office that is attached to my room. I pick up the land line and punch in my number. It rings 3 times. Each time my heart drops.
"Hello??"
Her voice is groggy.
"I am sorry were you sleeping?"
"Umm yeah I was but I am awake now"
"What are you doing sleeping this early?"
"My room mate was ahh doing ummm naughty stuff and I was trying to ignore it and must have fallen asleep.
Naughty stuff? Could this girl get any more adorable?
"Well I noticed that you are a bit of a phone napper"
"No I didn't, you dropped it, it was on the ground, I tried to chase you"
She gets so nervous so quickly, I really don't think she has any idea how gorgeous she is.
"Well as a token of appreciation for rescuing my phone how about I take you out for lunch tomorrow?"
"It's fine I can just give you back your phone"
"I insist"
"Okay that would be great"
"I will meet you in the quad at 12.30"
"Deal"
"Have a good night, I will see you tomorrow Willow"
"Good night Sebastian"
I hang up and lean back on my chair. Good night Sebastian, why do I feel like I want to hear those words out of her sweet mouth for the rest of my life. I get some paperwork done and return the mountains of emails I have to do. I head down to the kitchen and load up on extra food and head back upstairs. I lay on my bed looking at the ceiling picturing her. I can't wait till lunch tomorrow.
I wake up early in the morning and head down stairs. I hear Tobias in his office. I knock.
"Come in"
I open the door. He looks like crap. I wonder if he even sleeps anymore.
"Come on Tobias we are going for a run"
"I don't have time"
"Well you are making time"
"Sebastian seriously"
"I will drag you out if I have to"
"I would like to see you try"
I walk towards him. I will try alright. He sighs.
"Fine I am coming"
I smile. Victory.
We walk downstairs and to the treeline. We strip and shift. I take off running and he quickly over takes me. I just try and keep up.
'So are you ready to talk yet?'
'There is nothing to talk about'
'We need to find your mate'
'I don't need a mate'
'Yes you do'
'Shut it or I am going back now'
'Fine'
I roll my eyes. He literally has no idea what he is missing out on. The year that I was with my mate was the best year of my life. There is nothing like that feeling, that bond, the sparks, the scent. That need for someone knowing that they love you just as much as you love them.
We run for an hour before turning back and heading to the pack house. I run straight upstairs. I quickly have a shower and get dressed. I feel like a girl I have no idea what to wear. I want to impress Willow on our first date but I also don't want to look like I am trying too hard and freak her out. I have the feeling that she probably doesn't date much.
Naughty stuff?
I laugh. I would like to show her some naughty stuff. I push away those lustful thoughts and concentrate in the task at hand. I don't know. I choose a black tee and dark blue jeans. I should have said dinner so it wasn't in the middle of the school day. Too late to change it now.
