Uhhh Why is Life so Complicated?!?!?! by Sarah Becker (english love story books .TXT) 📖

or I’ll make you.” Zack’s mouth was right next to my ear and I shivered as he started to nibble on my ear. “I told you already! I would have changed already if I had something other than this!!” I said annoyed that I had to keep repeating myself. “I offered you my jacket!! And if you couldn’t find anything you should have at least put away the lollipop!!” He growled lowly pointing at the huge lollipop in my hand. Again with the growling!! What is wrong with this dude?! “I didn’t want to take your stupid jacket! I can take care of myself! I don’t need your help! I kept the lollipop because it’s probably the only thing that is keeping me from punching every single person I see!! Is it really so impossible for me to go a full day being happy!?!?!” I yelled at him. My anger was starting to bubble and I could feel the tears pooling in my eyes and tried my best to blink them away. Zack was staring at me with a stunned expression. He grabbed at my arms and turned me so that I was facing him. “Zoey I’m sorry! I just-“ “You just what?” I yelled at him pushing him away from me. The tears were falling freely now and I hated letting him see me so weak. “I don’t know.” He said his head hanging low. “Thats what I thought.” I said reaching for the door handle. “And if you ever! And I mean EVER!! Grab me the way you did again without my permission I will kick your ass into the next century! And thats a promise!” I said viciously then yanked the door open and headed towards the nearest bathroom. I wiped at my tears and headed towards my sixth period class which was study hall so I really was in no hurry. Cherry ran up to me when I finally made it to the class. “Where have you been? I was looking for you everywhere!!” She said hugging me tightly. I laughed at her and hugged her back. “Cherry I saw you twenty minutes ago! It really hasn’t been that long!” She laughed “Ya, I guess your right but where have you been?” She asked curiously, eyeing me with suspicion. Should I tell her? I asked myself. I mean Cherry has been awesome friend to me and I really don’t want to lie to her. I thought to myself. Okay, I’ll tell her. I silently decided. I dragged her towards a corner and told her about how we moved into Zack’s house and how he almost ran me over and how pulled me into a closet and when I was finished I was relieved that I had let it all out. Cherry stared at me. “I can’t believe you live with that jackass!!” She said still staring at me. “Uhhh stop reminding me!” I groaned “I mean at least he can’t bother me when I go home. But you! You have to see him every morning and night! How are you still alive?” She asked wide eyed. “Seriously Cherry? It’s only been one day.” I said rolling my eyes at her. “So what are you going to do?” She asked curiously. “What is there to do? I’m stuck in that house with him until I can convince my mom to move somewhere else.” I said pushing my bangs out of my face. “Well, if you ever need some help dealing with him you’ve always got me.” She said giving me a small smile and a light squeeze to my hand. I squeeze back and smile at her. “Weeelll, since you offered...” I trailed off biting my lip. “What is it?” She asked eyeing me suspiciously. “Its nothing big. I was just wondering if you could maybe hang out at my house for a little bit after school. I really don’t want to talk to Zack about today and I don’t think he’ll do it if your there. Plleaassee!” I begged. Cherry thought about it for a second. Then finely nodded her head. “Fine, but can I just like sleepover or something? I don’t like driving home in the dark.” I squealed. “Yes!! Oh my gosh yes!! As long as you come over!! Thank you soo much!!” I yelled hugging her tightly. “Squishing- boobs!” She coughed out. I laughed at her and we spent the rest of the period laughing and telling each other jokes and for the first time in a reallyy long time I felt like I could say or do anything I wanted. Even though I just met Cherry I would trust her with my life. She is the best friend I will ever have besides Connor and Derek. The bell rang and we headed towards our next class. Social studies. Uhhh wish me luck.
Chapter 5: One crazy night.
I wiped the drool off my face as we walked out of our social studies class. “God, that was the most boring class in the world and not to mention the teacher is a bitch.” Cherry rolled her eyes at me and I followed her to her locker. “Hey, at least you survived your first day at West Road High School!” (WRHS for short) She slammed her locker door closed and we got my skateboard from my locker then headed to the parking lot to find her car. “There it is.” She pointed at a cherry red convertible buggy. “You got a buggy?” I asked like it wasn’t already obvious. “Yeah, I like the idea that someone is punching someone else because of my car.” She said smiling at me. “This reminds me. Punch buggy red!!” I say punching her lightly in the arm. We laugh and I tell her the directions to get to my house. I groan when I see Zack’s car already parked in the driveway. I slowly get out of the car and start to walk towards the house with Cherry right behind me. Just as I was about to open the door it burst open. “Zoey I’m so-“Zack starts to say but stops when he notices Cherry standing behind me. “Umm hi,” Zack says awkwardly to Cherry. “Hi.” Cherry says giving Zack a cold stare. “C-could we talk in private?” Zack asks turning to me with pleading eyes. “Hell to the mother fucking no!!” Cherry says getting in front of me. He growls lowly at Cherry and my anger shot up. “Pleease?” He asks again through clenched teeth. “Its okay Cherry.” I say tightly wanting soo badly to punch Zack in the face. “Are you sure?” She asks looking back at me. I nod my head at her. “Might as well get it over with. Could you wait for me in the living room over there?” I ask pointing down the hall. “Ya, call me if you need me.” She said squeezing my hand and walking down the hall. Once she is out of sight I turn and face Zack and glare at him. “How dare you growl at my friend!” I whisper/yell at him. Zack reached for my arms but I yanked them away and he sighs. “Look Zoey, I’m sorry! Okay? I’m sorry for everything I have done to piss you off since you got here but thats not what I needed to talk to you about.” “Then what do you want to talk about?” I ask getting a little curious. Zack breaths in a deep breath and lets it out. “This is really hard to explain.” He says running a hand through his hair. “And I think your mom should be here when I explain to you so can you come with me real quick to see her?” He asks his eyes begging me to just say yes. I eye him suspiciously and finally let out a big breath. “Fine, but it make it quick.” “Thank you,” He breaths out then starts to reach for my hand but thinks better out of it and just motions for me to follow him. He races off towards the back patio and I follow. We find my mom sitting there with a cup of tea in hand. “Ms. White its time to tell her and I just thought you should be there when I told her.” Zack says to my mom and I look at them both curiously. My mom nods at him silently. “Thank you for letting me be here when you tell her Zack.” My mom says then motions for me to come sit down with her. Slowly I walk over to her and hesitantly sit down. “Okay, I’m listening. Whats so important?” Zack glances over at my mom nervously and she sighs. Turning in her seat she takes my hand and squeezes it lightly. “Zoey,” She starts then hesitates. “Could you just cut the crap and tell me already!?!?” I ask annoyed. She takes another deep breath and starts. “We didn’t move away from Texas for the reasons you think. I mean we did move because of your dad but not for those reasons.” “Then why did we move?” “Because, Zoey, your dad is alive. He is also a werewolf. This makes you half werewolf.” She says slowly. I stare at her like she has gone crazy and she probably has. I mean come on! My dad can’t be alive! And werewolves? Really? “Mom, you need help.” I say putting a hand on her shoulder. She shakes her head and gives me a small smile. “No, Zoey I’m not and we can prove it.” She says putting a hand on top of mine. “We?” I question. She nods her head and points at Zack. I stare at him. “What does he have to do with any of this?” “He’s a werewolf too.” I laugh hysterically. “You have got to be joking!” I say still laughing. “Show her Zack.” My mom says her face still as emotionless as ever. Zack walks into their overly large backyard and takes his shirt off. No matter how much I hate him I can’t help but stare at his muscles that ripple with every move he makes. I see Zack fall to the ground. “Zack!” I yell and start to run over to him when my mom grabs my hand making me stay. “Whats going on!?” I ask turning towards her. “Look,” She says and points at Zack. I look back and instead of Zack I see the biggest wolf I have ever seen. It was about five feet tall and two feet wide with an oddly familiar sandy brown coat and blue eyes. My eyes grow wide. Oh my god it’s true. Its all true! I think shaking my head while backing up at the same time. “Zoey-“ My mom starts but was cut off when a scream pierced the air. I turn trying to figure out where it came from when I see Cherry standing at the patio door. She stares at me wide eyed and I stare back with the same expression on my face. “D-did you see that? He turned into a wolf.” She said staring at the wolf that was still standing in the middle of the backyard. Oh god! She saw the whole thing! She’ll probably never talk to me again. I nodded my head slowly and she let out a relieved sigh. Then the next thing I knew she fainted and fell to the floor. I quickly walked over to her my mom following behind me. “I’ll take her inside. You stay out her and......think.” She says then gently takes Cherry inside. I watch them leave then turn my direction back to Zack. Hesitantly, I walk over to him. “Whats wrong? You scared?” I hear Zack’s voice say in my head and jump back. “Oh my god you can talk?” I ask feeling stupid that I was talking to a five foot tall wolf. The wolf makes a wolfish grin
