First Class
Evie Pov
But as I look into her eyes and see her face fall at this comment and have instant regret. Even though I am excited about this new chapter in my life sometimes it’s hard remembering that I’m going to be hurting and leaving behind everyone single person that I love. “Hey, Hazel I’m sorry I didn’t mean to sound so excited, but I’m happy for this change. It’s not like we will never see each other again! You can come visit me whenever possible and we will still talk every day… I’m hoping you will change your mind still and apply and come with me! Do you really want to be married off to some Beta’s son in a nearby pack?” I feel like screaming at this point! I can not understand why Hazel doesn’t want to come with me. “ Wow Evie, we’re having this conversation again… just because you want to go off to college and do more doesn’t mean that’s what we all want! I already told you I want to stay here with my family and continue to train! My older brother is a lazy slob and will make a terrible Beta. You know my goal is to work my way up and convince your brother I should be his future Beta instead of Henry. If I can do that my future mate will just have to move here for me. They can be the ones being married off to a future Beta not me!” Hazel chuckled to herself. I laugh too, only Hazel would be so stubborn to think she can cover throw years of pack tradition. But at the same time if anyone can do it, it’s Hazel And she’s definitely not wrong she would be a much better Beta than her brother. Henry is an entitled douchebag who was unfortunately born before Hazel meaning he should inherit the Beta title. Henry and Matt grew up together and are friends but even Matt seems to see that he puts no work into his future and is just expecting it on a silver platter. Henry is on the smaller side for a man in our pack. He’s under 6ft, with dull brown hair and plain brown eyes. He’s one of the scrawnier males in terms of muscle, that’s due to his lack of training of course. We all put our heart and soul into training wanting to be the best for our pack, and to be able to protect anyone who’s in danger. But not Henry he hasn’t trained a day since he graduated From high school. And he only trained then because it was mandatory for graduation. He never participated in any of the extra pack training given or in any community pack events, while Hazel is the complete opposite she participates in every extra training possible and volunteers for every community event. She really has the true heart of a dedicated Beta, and I really hope Matt see’s that she’s he better choice for the job when he takes over in two years. Remembering all of this I sigh and say “ You are right Hazel, I’m sorry just because I want to leave doesn’t mean you should. I know the pack needs you, just like I know my brother will make the right decision and choose you to be our future Beta. But on a lighter note we should probably start running because at this point we are going to be late for school and Mr. Danvers Is going to kill us in extra training drills!” I say while turning to start the sprint down the street. “Oh shit! Let’s go, but don’t think we are done talking about the Alpha King and Prince’s visit!” Hazel says starting to sprint after me. “Last one to school buys lunch today! I yell out while pushing my legs as hard as they can possibly go. “Ha your buying!” I yell to Hazel as I slide into my desk, having barely broken a sweat and us making it just seconds before the bell rings. “Yeah, yeah, yeah a real fair challenge their Evie like you don’t have superior genetics running trough your veins with your Alpha blood. Plus we are in all the same trainings you definitely have the advantage!” Hazel snaps out while glaring at me from her desk. I just laugh and say “ I know why do you think I made the bet!” Just then Mr. Danvers walks into that classroom sending a menacing glare across the room. “QUIET!” He yells while spit flies from his mouth. “ Thank you Genevieve and Hazel for being an example of how I expect you not to behave in this class as per usual.” He grits out while I flinch in my seat. “ Almost late again and causing a distribution in my class with your mindless chatter. Your lucky I’m not assigning you two extra training hours with this kind of behavior.” He shouts at us. I sink down in my seat my face ablaze as I feel my cheeks flush bright red “ Sorry Mr. Danvers it won’t happen again.” I mange to say without dying of total embarrassment while the rest of our classmates laugh at us. Hazel being the more confident of the two of us just sighs and rolls her eyes while ignoring the fact that Mr. Danvers addressed her at all. Thankfully he lets this go and moves on with class, while I immediately start to zone out planning my packing list for Blackwood, while reviewing what I will need to know for my final this afternoon. I’m hoping with all the hours of studying I have put into this finals I will quickly finish my tests over the next week and get to leave early. That way Hazel and I can go shopping for everything we need for the prom. Despite not wanting to go with an assigned date from my father I’m actually really looking forward to the event. It will be my last dance experience of high school and I want it to go off with a bang. While I’m spaced out reviewing final questions, I feel a light kick to my foot then see Hazel slide a paper on my desk as quickly as possible.
