Nerd Of The Year ( Published - Sample Only )

Chapter 16

Panting from the run, I decided to give my body the much needed rest and plopped myself on the soft grass. That is when I realised that I am in the middle of nowhere with no way and idea to get out. Great, something I need. Sitting down, my mind went through numerous possibilities of what Easton is. Does that mean that Ryder is one of them too? At least, the possibility of that stupid infatuation was it of the picture, not that it wasn't exactly a possibility.

But if Easton was not normal then what was the connection between his "abnormal behavior" and me calming him? Last time I checked, I was pretty much normal and human. Then there was one possibility I was pushing to the back of my brain, not wanting to acknowledge it. But was it the answer I am searching for?

I sat there for God knows how much time thinking about random things when I checked for the time. I removed my cell from my pocket when I realized that BAM!

I HAVE CELLPHONE WITH ME!

Why didn't that strike before? I looked at that signal and surprisingly it was full.
Yes!
I hurriedly called the person responsible for this big mess.
The phone rang for about five second before a voice thundered through it," Where are you Neveah?" Oh man, Easton sounded angry.

I waited for some time before I replied,"you see, umm, well, I'm kinda lost in the middle of the forest behind Xavier's house."

"Can you describe the place?" his voice was relatively calmer now.

"Okay, it is a clearing kinda place in between the forest, the place is surrounded my really tall trees." Bio wasn't that strong so I couldn't identify the trees.

"Alright, hold on. Just stay there. I'll come and get you in ten minutes."

"Okay," I replied and cut the phone.
I kept the phone on the side and hugged my knees to myself, waiting for Easton to rescue me out of this mess.

I was just sitting on the grass when I heard sounds from the forest. Not sounds, but growls. I would be lying, if I say that I wasn't scared. Hell! I was terrified. What do I do now? I have to do something.
I stood up and was terrified when I felt hands on my hips. I stiffened and turned behind coming face to face with Easton.

"Oh God, Thank you. I was so scared." I put my arms around his shoulders and hugged. I know that in any other circumstance, I would have not done this, not to mention that he was probably one of things making the noise in the forest but right now I was too terified for logical thinking. 

He wrapped his arms tightly aroung me and nuzzled his face in my neck. I too closed my eyes and we both stood in the same position. I opened after some time and found the remaining three of looking at me with strange eyes. Ohh! That's when the panic wore off and I realised the positionn I was in. 

I pulled on Easton's t-shirt and told in his ear," let go Easton." He losened his arms from me and we seperated but he still wrapped one arm around my waist. Okay, this was wierd. I cleared my throat and said in a small voice, "thank you." He just nodded in reply. This was just too wierd. 

I was looking at Easton when the realisation hit him as to where we were and he bursted out, "What were you thinking when you ran out locking us all in? And not to mention getting stuck up in the forest?" Truth to be said, I was expecting this. 

If this was any other time, I would have hastily back-answered but right now I was too tired. 

"Not today Easton, please," I murmer in a dejected tone. 
Something in my tone must have done it because he didn't press the matter further. He just nodded again and tightened his hold on my waist."Let's go back."

Surprisingly all others were silent. I sighed and started walking when I heard a loud growl behind me. i imediatly turned behind to watch more but Easton tightened his hold further to a point where his nails were piercing in my skin.  I hissed out load at the pain. Damn, it hurts! I tried to get out but it only aggravated to my pain. When I looked at him, I realised that he wasn't even aware of hurting me. He had a faraway look along with anger in his eyes which was currently directed towards the forest. 

"Easton, stop you are hurting her," Melissa said. I think everyone except Easton noticed that. Slowcoach. His eyes widened comically and he imedietly let his hold off as if I was burning him. If I wasn't hurting, I would have laughed at his epression. 

Just then wierd sounds came out from the forest. I turned my attention back to the forest. It wasn't that dark yet so I could make out proper outlines. 

I saw something twinkling from the forest. I saw many more twinkling things before a horde or pack of wolves were running towards us. I stood rooted to the spot preparing for my death. I didn't get yo eat Ma's weddig cake. Oh! how will she cope without me? At least she has Brian now. Oh God, I am about to die and I am thinking such silly thoughts, what is wrong with me. I braced myself for the death when the wolves went running to the other side of the forest without even sparing me a second glance. What the? 

Great! I am sad now because those huge my height wolves didn't coming running to kill me. How much wierd can I get. This is just not me. All I need is to go home and sleep for some time and forget anout all that happened today. 

I turned back and started walking to God knows where when something nudged me in the leg. It was a puppy. Actually it was a wolf cub with the size of a German Sheperd. It licked me through my jeans. Before I could react, Easton cursed out loud. 

The baby wolf started making wierd noises and suddenly its fur started receding and in the place of the wolf was the small boy behind whom I had run the whole forest.

OMG! I looked at my hips and there were three long gashes from where Easton held me. No wonder it hurt like a pitch or should I say dog, pun intended.

THAT IS WHEN I RELAISED THAT THEY ALL WERE WOLVES!

FREAKING WOLVES!

Oh for the love of........
