The New Girl

Chapter 8

Hey guys. I'm back! It's been a while huh?

Song for this chapter... Broken Glass by Three Days Grace!

Aaron's POV

That's it! I'm tired of seeing my brother and my mate act all cute together. It's time I tell her about what she is and about what we're going to be.

Mackenzie's POV

Today had been an absolutely amazing day. I have had so much fun with Lizzie, Cody, and Aiden. Aaron ran straight to his room after we returned from mud riding. Well someone's PMSing.

Right now we where all piled up in Aiden's California King Bed. I was snuggled with Aiden, my head on his chest and his arms wrapped around my waist. I snuck a peek at Cody and Lizzie and saw them all curled up together.

Aww, they're so cute! I knew something was going on there.

We where currently watching the Last Song. Which is a personal favorite of mine. I love everything Nicholas Sparks writes and produces. We where at the part where Miley Cyrus is reading a book at night on the beach while protecting the turtle nest, when the gorgeous Liam Hemsworth walks up to stay with her. Input sigh there. So cute.

Cody and Lizzie had fallen asleep about 20 minutes ago still in each others embrace.

I looked up to see Aiden staring at me with a small smile on his cute lips. His eyes held so much emotion. Admiration, Determination, and.. love? He couldn't possibly love me. Right? I mean he's gorgeous. He could have any girl he wanted. Why would he love me? I looked down again, not liking the feeling I got when I thought about him being with another girl.

"Look at me Mackenzie," he said while hooking a finger under my chin, to lift my head up to meet his eyes.

"Mackenzie, I have loved you since I was 11 years old. All those years you where gone at boarding school. I sat here waiting and hoping that you would return, and possibly somehow feel the same way I feel about you. You are the most beautiful girl I have ever seen. Your beautiful green eyes are hypnotising. That cute little nose of yours, and those.. soft pink lips of yours I just want to kiss everytime I see you. Mackenzie, you are absolutely stunning, and I love you with all my heart. Would you do me the honor of being my girlfriend?"

I sat there slighty shocked.Tears filling my eyes. I had no idea he felt that way about me, but when I think about it. I have those same feelings. After thinking for a few moments, I slowly brought my lips closer to his. I kissed him with as much passion and love that I could muster.

I pulled away but keeping my face still close to his. I opened my eyes to meet his gorgeous big brown eyes, while I nodded my head softly. The most breathtaking smile I have ever seen spread across his lips. And I couldn't help but mirror his actions. He moved one hand to the back of my head and closed the small distance between us.

I've had many boyfriends and kisses but never anything like this. It felt like be-

"Sorry to interrupt but I need to speak with Mackenzie," someone said harshly from behind us. We both pulled our heads up to look at the door and saw none other than Aaron.

"Aaron don't do this now," Aiden said or more like pleaded.

"Aiden I'm in charge here, it's time for her to know." Aaron replied with a stern look. Well, I'm so confused.

"I was going to be the one to tell her. She's my girlfriend! This is my right! Not yours!" Aiden screamed while getting off the bed and going to stand in front of Aaron.

"Aiden I'm going to give you one more chance to stand down before I make you," Aaron said with a scary, deep, authoritive voice.

"No! She doesn't even know you! I've known her all my life! Why would she even choose to believe you! I wouldn't believe anything that came out of your mouth, so why should she!" Aiden bellowed.

"I said STAND DOWN AIDEN!" Aiden immediately fell to his knees. WTF? What is going on around here? I'm so lost.

"Mackenzie, do you mind coming with me, so I may speak with you about a few important things at hand?" Aaron asked me, sweetly while extending a hand towards me to grab. I lightly grabbed his hand and let him lead me out of the room. Right before we turned the corner, I took a quick glance back at Aiden and saw him staring at me sadly while Lizzie and Cody began to help him up. Apparently they woke up after all the commotion.

I heard footsteps falling heavily behind me but before I got to see who rounded that corner, I was pulled into a big office. Furnished with a couch to the side, a big mahogany desk in the middle, with a big professional chair behind it. Aaron ushered me to sit in one of the chairs in front of the desk, while he made his way to lean against the desk right in front of me.

"Mackenzie? Do you believe in mythical creatures, such as a werewolf or vampire?" he asked with a raised eyebrow.

"Um, I'm not sure. The Bible states that there are monsters and sea creatures. Now to the extent of a human morphing into one of these creatures. I do not believe in. Why?" What was all this about.

"I'm not sure how you're going to take this, so I'm just going to come straight out and say it. I'm a werewolf. My whole family is a werewolf. You're a werewolf. You're whole family is a werewolf. Basically this whole town is made of werewolves. The town over? All vampires," he replied. I looked at his face and eyes to try to get a judgement of this. Is he speaking the truth? There's no way. My mother? My father? No way. They would tell something that held this much importance. Wouldn't they?

I faintly heard banging which sounded familiar to someone banging against a big wooden door. Aiden. He's a werewolf. Lizzie and Cody. Are werewolves. They all kept this from me. Everyone. I was interrupted from my thoughts when Aaron spoke again.

"I'm not lying to you princess. Another thing I need to inform you of is that you will be going through your first shift soon. Since you just had your 18th birthday. When you turn 18 your inner wolf awakens and you have your first shift. I'll admit that it is quite painful. But since you have your mate it won't be as bad, because they will help you th-"

"Mate?" I heard the banging on the door stop after the word left my mouth.

"Yes. Mate. Your other half. Sorta like a soul mate. That person is your everything. You would do anything to make that person happy. You would die for that person. They are the absolute love of your life. The person you will fall in love with, marry, have pups with, and grow old with," he said with a smile that flashed all his pearly whites.

"Well then who's my "mate"," I asked while putting air quotes around the word 'mate'.

"Well that's easy, I am," he replied with an even bigger smile. As if he had just won the Superbowl.

All of a sudden the door was ripped from its hinges and thrown to the ground. With a pissed Aiden on the other side. He quickly ran to me at an inhumanly speed and picked me up bridal style and began running or should I say flying down the stairs. He raced out the door, and ran towards the garage.

He threw me in his jacked up Ford, and hopped in the other side. He quickly buckled and spun out of their driveway leaving a livid Aaron in the dust. "Seatbelt," he reminded me. Which broke me from my trance. I quickly buckled myself and turned to face Aiden.

"What was all that back there?" I asked with a confusing look on my face I'm sure.

"You trust me right?" he asked me.

"Yes." It was true, even thought I had no clue what necessarily just happened. I have known Aiden all my life. Of course I trust him.

"I promise Angel, I'll explain all of this when we get to where we're going," he replied with a small smile thrown my way while he reached one hand over to intertwine with me.

I was slightly confused by that statement. But I looked up and saw we where pulling into an airport.

I'm back!! Sorry It's taken so long. I think I could use some more votes for some encouragement! :)

Love, EmilyGrayson.
