Duncan's POV:The next morning,I went to school and I was stressing out."Stay away from Courtney.Stay away from Courtney.Stay away from Courtney."I thought.But everywhere I went,Courtney was there.I walked down the hall unaware that Courtney was there."Duncan!Wait up!"Courtney said.I walked faster down the hall and tried to dodge people.I looked at different doors until I saw the boy's bathroom.I walked in and stood by the door as I put my ear against it.I knew that Courtney was still there but I had to stay away from her of she'd get hurt.After Courtney left,I went to first period as I saw my buddy Geoff sitting at his desk.I walked over to him as I said,"Are you still not talking to me?"Geoff wasn't talking to me cause I didn't tell him my secret(I'm a werewolf) until the thrid week since I found out.Geoff is the only one (besides Vince)that knows my secret and I know that even if he hates me,he wouldn't give it away.
"If I was talking to you,I'd say,yes.I'm still not talking to you.But that's only if I was talking to you."Geoff said.
"Vince was talking to me the other day."I siad.I could tell that Geoff was about to start talking to me.
"What did he say?"Geoff asked turning around angerly.
"That I need to stop seeing Courtney."I said.
"Like break up with her?"he asked.
"No just until the full moon passes."I said.I couldn't let Courtney sit by me,talk to me,nothing.This is gonna be hard.
"Geoff,you know that you're the only one who knows my secret.And there's a reason for that.Because you're my best friend and you always will be."I whispered.Geoff looked at me and said,"I'm still mad at you but I will help you.Meet me at at the locker room during free period." I smiled,patted him on the back and sat back in my seat as the teacher walked in the classroom.
During free period,I met Geoff in the locker room like I was told.I saw him holding a heart rate reader from the track team,a lacrosse stick,duck tape,and a large bucket full of tennis balls.
"What are you doing?"I asked.
"Follow me."Geoff said and started walkeding.
I followed Geoff out to the football field as no one was out there.
"Put this on."Geoff said handing me from the heart rate reader.
"What for?"I asked.
"Just do it."he said.
I put the heart rate reader as Geoff said,"You're going to wear this for the rest of the day.I took the coach's phone and the reader so I can see if your heart rate has anything with you going wolf."
Geoff spun me around and put my hands together behind my back as he taped them together.
"what's this for?"I asked.
"You'll see.This will help me and you.This will help me blow off some steam at you.Try not to go wolf when I hit you with these tennis balls."Geoff said as he threw a tennis ball in the air and hit it with the lacrosse stick.The tennis ball hit me as well as the rest of the large bucket.The last ball Geoff threw hit me in the area and about drove me insane.I broke the tape that held my hands were bound with easily.I fell to my knees and screamed.I took heavy breaths with my head on the ground.I could tell Geoff was worried about my heart rate.When I go wolf,I can't control what I do.After a few more seconds,I calmed down and surprisingly didn't go wolf.I stood up as I asked,"Are we cool now?"
"Yeah dude,we're cool."Geoff said.When Geoff and I were back in class,it was time for5th period (reading).
Reading was my least favorite subject.My teacher Mr.Anderson is a complete jerk and when you're supposed to do a reading assignment or something,I don't do it due to I'm spending time with Courtney.I saw Courtney walk in and tried to get Geoff to sit behind me but Courtney sat down behind me faster than Geoff could.
"Hey is your phone dead or something?"Courtney asked.
"Uh,actually my uncle Vince threw it at the wall so I'm gonna have to get a new one."I said with my head turned.Courtney put her head down on the desk right behind my shoulder.Geoff sat down beside me as Mr.Anderson walked in.
"Everyone get out their books from last night and I hope uyou all did the reading.Now can someone tell me what last night's reading was about?"Mr.Anderson asked.
Only one person raised their hand as Mr.Anderson said,"Put your hand down Molly,we all know that you did the reading.Mr.Coleman tell the class what last nights reading was about." I forgot to do the reading.Great."I forgot to do it sir."I said.
I could hear Geoff's heart rate reader beep and beep and beep as I knew that my heart rate was going up."Surpirise surprise.Thank you Mr.Coleman.THANK YOU!Thank you for that wonderful summary you just said about last nights reading.Have you ever read anything in your entire life?"the teacher asked now all sweaty as everyone laughed and I just sat there.Beep beep beep beep beep is what I heard mostly.The beeping was getting faster."Have you ever done ANY reading of the Scarlet Letter?!"Mr.Anderson kept yelling.I was getting madder and madder at Mr.Anderson.The beeping was now really fast but then I heard it get slower.
Geoff's POV:I watched the heart rate reader as I saw Duncan's heart rate get back to normal.I saw that Duncan's hand was inbetween his chair and Courtney's desk.They were holding hands again as Courtney played with the hair on the back of Duncan's neck.I rolled my eyes and put the coach's phone back in my pocket as I listened to Mr.Anderson's yelling."Why don't you just chill out?"I thought.
Duncan's POV:Okay I'm just holding hands with her.Nothing bad about that right?Suddently,I felt my fingernails grow.I looked down at the hand I was holding Courtney's with and saw that my fingernails were now claws.I let go of Courtney's hand and stuck my hand in my pocket.I looked back at Courtney and tried to get her attention but she wouldn't look at me.Courtney sat back in her chair with her arms crossed and really started paying attention to what Mr.Anderson was saying.After 5th period was over,Courtney didn't talk to me for the rest of the day.
"If I was talking to you,I'd say,yes.I'm still not talking to you.But that's only if I was talking to you."Geoff said.
