Different (Currently Rewriting)

Chapter 35

"I never said I wanted you to accept my apology. I just want you to know."

"Oh, I know you are." I said. "You've made it very clear." I grabbed another small stack of cookies and placed them in my hand. What? You can't go wrong with cookies. Especially if they're oreos. I shut the package and put them back where I found them. I grabbed the crutches again and struggled to balance the cookies in my hand while trying to hold onto the crutches. I groaned loudly as one feel on the floor.

"You sure love your cookies." Orion chuckled.

"Yup." I popped the 'p'. I reached down to grab it quickly. "Five second rule." I said before quickly shoving the delicious treat in my mouth.

"Ew." I narrowed my eyes at the source of the voice.

"What?" I asked innocently with my mouth full.

"That's gross." Orion said while scrunching his nose up in disgust. I swallowed what was in my mouth.

"No its not!" I defended. "It was fine!"

"You don't know what could have been on the floor. Someone could have thrown up in that exact spot the cookie fell onto." I scrunched up my face and faked a gag.

"Don't even start with that." I said and pointed at him. He chuckled.

"Maybe now you know the five second rule isn't a thing." I shook my head.

"It is a thing. You should try it." I said as I shoved another cookie into my mouth. He gave me a disgusted look.

"I'm not risking getting sick from eating food that's been in the floor for 'five seconds'" he said, using air quotes.

"What are you gonna get?" I asked. "An STD?"

"You cant get an S-"

"Yes I know you can't get STD's from eating food off the floor. That only further proves my point. You're not going to get anything. Especially since we're werewolves and can't really get sick."

"Right." He drew out. "Are you going to pack training today?"

I gave him a look that said 'are you dumb?'. "Does it look like I can train right now?" I looked down and lifted my injured leg.

"You could watch."

"And what good is watching going to do me?" I asked, furrowing my eyebrows.

"Watching is sometimes better than engaging. You learn new and efficient things you didn't know before."

I shrugged. "I mean, I have nothing else to do so why not. I just have to take a shower."

"Don't worry about the cast getting wet. Its water proof." He said and I nodded. "And you can't shift for obvious reasons."

"Yeah yeah," I waved him off. "No shifting, waterproof cast, yadah, yadah, yadah, got it." He frowned and I noticed his fists balled up at his sides. He was trying really hard not to lash out at me. I really needed to fix my attitude. I decided to leave before his niceness weres off. I gave him an innocent grin and turned around before I started to make my way to the stairs.

Once I got to my room, I looked through my suit case in search of clothes to wear. I found my already used clothes in there, fresh and clean. The omegas must have washed them. I sighed and took out a pair of shorts and a tee shirt, along with some undergarments. I went to the bathroom and pulled the shower curtain back before turning on the shower. I waited a couple minutes for the water to warm up and stripped. I hopped into the water and sighed as it ran down my back.

I finished up and jumped out before grabbing a towel and wrapping it around myself. I dried myself off and put my clothes on. I then finished everything, exited the bathroom and went over to the mirror. I put my still wet hair into a ponytail after brushing it out. After I finished, I put my shoe on since my other foot was in a cast and went downstairs.

I went out and onto the field to see the pack conversing with eachother. Soon, Orion, Ace, and Charles came out. Orion called everyone to attention and everybody got into a perfect block formation. He explained some things but I had completely zoned out. Until I heard my name, "Rayna is unable to join us in training today due to an injury." I felt awkward so I just smiled and looked around to see some people looking at me.

Goddess, it's like they didn't see me like this in the pack house and only just noticed. I said to Isla.

I know but people get curious.

Orion let everyone begin fighting and he observed along with Charles from the side. I saw Ace through my peripheral vision. He was making his way over to me. I smiled at him and he gladly returned it.

"How are you?" He spoke first.

"Pretty sweet." I say sarcastically as I look down at my leg. He follows my gaze and then meets my eyes.

"It probably sucks to be a cripple." I let out a short chuckle before rolling my eyes playfully.

"Way to make me feel better." I joked.

"Its the best way."

"Totally."
