Alpha Academy (Completed)

Chapter 3

*Ava POV*

It has been a great start, I have found out so far is there are 40 students here at the moment. 3 other girls. I have met a few people so far. Hunter seems nice. I also met 2 other guys Clay and Sam.

I sit down for dinner. Making sure to position myself next to Hunter. He always has his dark eyes on me. They make me feel excited and safe all at the same time.

I try to catch glimpses of him without him noticing. He is incredibly handsome. Dark brown almost black hair shaved down quite short short. The darkest brown eyes that I have ever seen. He is already very muscly and solid. Tall already over the 6 foot mark. Despite the fact that still have more growing to do. He has tanned skin and I guess you would say he is the dark brooding type. He had never met the other guys we were sitting with even though they have been here a couple of extra months.

I look around the cafeteria. We came down early but it looks like nearly everyone else is here now. I spot another girl and give her a smile and a wave. She turns her nose up at me and walks away. Well she seems pleasant (not).

I finally spot the 2 other girls they are both sitting on different guys knees. They must have boyfriends. I don't know how that will go when they have to leave here is 6 months but that is cool. I am not looking for anything like that I just want to make friends.

I finish my dinner. That's been a long day and I still need to unpack my stuff. I excuse myself from the table. Hunter quickly jumps up too.

"I will walk you to your room"

I laugh.

"I am sure I can manage, but if you want"

Ty shoots me a look. I roll my eyes at him. I never know what he always thinks is going to happen to me.

*Ty POV*

So we are here at this school when I would rather by home with my pack and my friends in my school. Back with Melanie. Ava being Ava had already got us a group to sit with. I don't mind the other two but this Hunter guy is showing way too much interest in her. His dark eyes on her as soon as he thinks no one's watching him. She is so naive sometimes. She doesn't even realize she is beautiful, that coupled with her overly friendly personality always has guys flocking to her. I swear she never even notices though. I wish she would realize that not everyone has good intentions.

I sigh.

This is going to be a long 6 months making sure she doesn't get herself in trouble. I watch them walk off together. I sit for 10 minutes and then head up stairs and knock on Ava's door.

She opens it.

"Hey Ty come in"

"Umm yep"

"Or you didn't want to visit you just wanted to check that Hunter wasn't in here or something"

“Maybe"

She laughs and rolls her eyes at me.

"What type of girl do you think I am? Do you not trust me?"

"It's not you I don't trust, it is these future Alphas, seriously Ava be careful"

"I am completely fine. Stop worrying about me so much, go ring Melanie or something, tell her I said hi"

"Fine, but if you need anything just let me know"

*Hunter POV*

I walked Ava up the stairs. I bid her goodnight then went straight to my room and lay on my bed. I cannot stop thinking about this girl. I have not been interested in talking to anyone else is this place. But her. I feel like I want to know everything about her. And just spend as much time as I can with her. Suddenly 6 months left here doesn't seem like long enough.

I am actually excited to be here and that is something that I never thought I would say.

*Ava POV*

I have organized my room. Worked out my schedule for the next day and sorted my books. Hunter said he has the same as me first up so he will meet me in the morning and show me where it is. Even though it will be after breakfast anyway. He has such a deep voice I love hearing him speak.

I sigh as I finally collapse on the bed.

It has been a pretty good day. I think I am going to like this school.

 I wake in the morning to my alarm and I jump out of bed. I head towards the girls communal bathroom. I notice one of the girls doors open I turn around to smile at the occupant but realize it is one of the boys sneaking out of there. That surprises me a bit but I just laugh.

He looks at me shrugs his shoulders and heads back over to the boys rooms.

I continue to the bathroom and have a quick shower, throw on a bathrobe then head back to my room. I have endurance training first up then combat training. I am beyond excited.

I dress in my active wear which consists of tights a sports bra and a long high neckline singlet and topped off with a hoodie and walk out of the room. The other girls are out of their rooms now all standing at the mirror. They are putting on makeup. I walk over to them.

"Hi I am Ava"

They all snort and look at me through the mirror not even bothering to turn around. That went well (not) but I continue anyway if I just break mthe ice they will warm up to me I am sure.

"What is your first class for the day?"

One of the girls finally spoke back. Attitude lacing her voice.

“Same as you isn't it obvious”.

I look how they are dressed. Well I wouldn't really think it's obvious it looks like they are in underwear. Is that their workout gear? And are they putting on makeup to work out?

Whatever, if that is what they want to do.

"Okay great, see you down there"

I reply still trying to sound chipper. These bitches are something else!

I walk to the stairs and Hunter is standing there waiting for me playing on his phone, leaning against the rail in a casual, relaxed manner. He is wearing gray sweatpants and a black hooded vest with a black shirt. He looks beyond handsome

He hears me coming and looks up and smiles at me.

"Good morning Ava, how was your first night?"

"It was okay"

He looks at me his brow furrowed.

"What's wrong?"

I look at him and laugh.

"Ohh sorry I was just trying to chat to the other girls but they seems pretty bitchy"

He wraps an arm around my shoulder and pulls me close and starts to walk down the stairs.

"Don't worry about them, they are just skanky bitches, they are not people you need to be wasting your time with"

He suddenly realizes his arm is around me and takes a step to the side releasing me.

I laugh.

"It's fine, but just do you know I am only looking for friendship I don't want anything more than that"

From what I have seen of the rest of the girls, I figure that I better make it clear. He smiles at me and wraps his arm back around me.

"No worries Ava whatever you want"

*Hunter POV*

I saw her coming when I was playing with my phone. She looks even more stunning than she did yesterday. She has no makeup on. Black tights and a maroon hoodie. Her beautiful golden hair tied back in a bun. I can't wait to see it out.

I ask her how her night was and she answers seeming down. I ask her what is wrong and she tells me. I laugh pulling her in under my arm. There is no point trying to be friends with those girls. They will just see her as competition for getting there goal which is a far as I can tell so far is trying to get every guy in this place to sleep with them. Each one has tried it on with me numerous times before. I am absolutely not interested in that with them.

If Ava offered I would be on her in 2 seconds flat but she is different. She has self respect. She doesn't doll herself up knowing that we are going to training she doesn't dress like a w***e. I suddenly realize I have my arm around her. I don't even know her that well. She might not be comfortable with this. I slip it off her shoulder and take 2 step back. Looking at her apologetically. She laughs then says.

"It's fine, but just do you know I am only looking for friendship I don't want anything more"

I smile and happily wrap my arm back around her and pull her close to me.

"No worries Ava whatever you want"

I have never really been the touchy feely type but this just feels right. Having her close to me. I am more than happy with just friendship as long as she is around me. We get down for breakfast and I am reluctant to let her go. I watch her as she grabs her food. She just keeps piling it up. The plate nearly overflowing.

I laugh.

"There is no way you can eat all that"

"Want a bet?"

I laugh again. She is so different from any other girl I have ever met.

"Okay what's the terms"

"Well if we are still going for coffee later?"

"Yeah"

"Okay is I eat this all, it is your shout I eat a LOT of cakes and sweets"

I smile. Could she be any cuter?

"And if you don't?"

"I don't know what ever you want, because I know I am going to win."

"I agree with your terms"

I sit down and watch her eat. It hardly even touches the sides. I don't care. I will buy every cake in the stupid shop if it means spending some alone time with her. Ty and the other 2 from yesterday join us. Ty says

"Ava are you making a pig of yourself again"

She just laughs a pushes him playfully.

"Of course"

I can't help but smile. I can't take my eyes off her. Everyone finishes up breakfast and Ava asks.

"So what is endurance training anyway?"

"Just running with a missive backpack full of weight, I bet you wish you hadn't of eaten so much now"

She laughs and shrugs.

We all head out to the field. There is a big path that we have to follow around the woods. I help Ava get her back pack on. It is nearly bigger than her. The instructor yells out.

"Ava over here please, the rest of you, off you go'

I take one look back at her as she is walking back to the instructor. I wanted to stay with her. To run with her. That bag is heavy I wanted to make sure she is fine. But I take off, glancing back at her as I leave, my heart full of regret.
