Kristen Cunningham // Eighteen // Alpha

She hasn't been able to sleep.

Since the town has been in an uproar about the recent animal attacks, she hasn't been able to sleep. Kristen is honestly afraid of what's to come regarding these attacks and she is even more worried about people close her, along with the members of her pack. She was up this morning, eyes practically glued to the television screen as the news were broadcasting the latest attack and even mentioned that the victim has passed away due to the injuries. Once they showed the person's picture and said their name, Kristen's eyes teared up as she could not believe it.

Ashley Winters, the latest victim, was in her homeroom and gym class. She turned the television off upon hearing approaching footsteps behind her and lifted her hands up to wipe her eyes. Her mother was preparing for her day, just making sure she had everything before walking over towards her darling daughter, Kristen. "Alright, sweetie. I am headed to the office and will be back home in time to make dinner, okay?" Her mother said as she leaned down and kissed the top of Kristen's forehead then left out the front door.

Kristen had every right in her mind to miss school today and solve this whole animal attack situation that was roaming around her town. But she knew that she had to go to school today because there was to be an assembly about these attacks and she needed to hear what was going on. Luckily for her, she was already dressed and just had to get up, grab her keys and cell phone then head out of the door - Which she did after a few minutes.

Once she got in her car, she cranked up the engine then grabbed her cell phone that she placed in the cup holder. She opened up a group message and started to type a message towards the members of her pack.

To: The Pack
Let's make sure we're all at school today, please. By the way, can't wait to hear about your Summer breaks. :)

She sent the message then placed back inside of the cup holder, wrapped her seat belt around her then back out of the driveway and started her thirty minute drive towards Beacon Hills High.

"Dude! Did you really eat the last of my pop tarts?"

Louis questioned towards his younger brother, Larry, who did nothing but snicker and take yet another bite from the last pop tart then walked away. He sighed while he rested his face inside of the palms of his hands now. His father came into the kitchen, gaze focused in on Louis. "Son, there is no need to cry about the recent lost of a classmate you did not know." His father said while pouring himself a cup of coffee then took a sip of it. "I'm not crying and that was a harsh thing to say." Louis commented as he stood up, grabbing his backpack and car keys. "Wait, wait. Take your brother to school, I've got a big meeting this morning." His father said as Louis rolled his eyes, head tilted up towards the ceiling.

"Larry, I hope you are ready for school because I am ready to go." Louis said as Larry came from around the corner, ready to start his first day at Beacon Hills High as a Freshmen. Louis waved for his brother to follow him towards the car, as he made sure the door was locked before unlocking his vehicle with a simple click of a button. His phone chimed in his pocket as he reached down and grabbed it, unlocking it while getting inside the car and throwing his backpack in the backseat.

His eyes read the message as he didn't even bother to respond since he was going to see her in a few minutes. Louis eyed his brother, scoffing and shaking his head as turned the engine and started to back out of the driveway. "Wait!" His brother basically screamed as Louis hit the brake immediately and looked at his brother. "What?" Louis asked as his brother looked over towards him now. "Nothing, just making sure you're on alert and that your brake works." His brother responded with a laugh, Louis shook his head while further backing out of the driveway now and speaking. "Don't make me kill you before your first day." Louis said as he began their trek towards the school now.

Julien O'Connell // Nineteen // Lone Wolf

Julien eyed the text with an expression of mild frustration. Honestly, he'd planned on making a quick walk to the liquor store and picking up some whiskey, maybe some more smokes. But, alas, it seems he had different plans that morning.

School. He thought to himself, resisting the urge to groan.

While he would've loved to just ignore the text and not show up, he knew he couldn't. Even if he hadn't accept Queenie as his alpha, he knew that she would probably show up to his place and bitch at him. So, he was really doing himself a favor and saving his eardrums.

Didn't mean he had to like it.

Pulling up the text once more, he quickly typed out a reply before sending it off to the group chat.

To: The Pack
Yes, your majesty.

Pleased with himself, he stuffed his phone into his pocket and was about to drag himself out the house when he felt arms wrap around his chest. He initially tensed up before he felt lips and teeth against his neck. And the feel of bare breasts against his back. There's that too.

Those feel familiar. He thought to himself with a small smirk before he turned around in their hold.

A very attractive and very naked blonde stared back at him, evidence of their night together imprinted all over her body. But, it only served to make Julien more annoyed at Queenie. He would love to have round... 5? 6? You get the idea.

"Going somewhere?" The blonde asked coyly, fingering the buttons of his shirt.

Julien laughed a little, grabbing her hands and reluctantly pulling them away from his person.

"Sorry, doll. Unfortunately, the call of education draws me back in."

She began pouting and Julien found himself cursing Kristen's name. Closing his eyes, he took a moment to breathe before looking at her once again.

"Don't worry, I'll probably ditch halfway through. Then?" He tugged her closer, arms going around her waist. "We can go for another round."

She stopped pouting and ended up giggling before leaning up to kiss him. He returned it before remembering that he had something to do. Moving away from her, he picked up his helmet and keys from the couch.

Giving a wink, he stepped out of the house and out into the sun. Wincing, he let out a quiet 'Jesus' before brandishing a pair of sunglasses from his pocket and slipping them on. Glancing around, he wandered over to the driveway towards his motorcycle.

Yay... school. Totally better than sex... totally.

Ruby Graham // Seventeen // Banshee

Ruby narrowed her eyes at the text, bringing a cigarette up to her lips and letting it hang there. She glanced around the house, taking note of the silence. Relieved, she reached into the breast pocket of her overshirt and pulled out a golden lighter.

Bringing the flame up to the end of the cigarette, she stuffed her phone into the side of her backpack. Pulling the cigarette from her lips, she allowed the smoke to billow from her lips.

Standing from the kitchen table, she made sure to grab an apple on her way to the door. Humming a toneless sound under her breath, she went to pass by the fridge when something caught her eye.

Honey, your father and I were called out to an emergency case in D.C. We'll be home in about a week! Sorry for no preperation, it was a last minute thing. When we get back, we'll go out to eat or something, okay?

We love you!

Clenching her jaw, Ruby didn't hesitate to tear the note off the fridge. Crumbling it up, she tossed it over her shoulder uncaringly as she left the kitchen.

Her head throbbed with pain and she momentarily found herself regretting drinking the night before. But, she couldn't help it. Her banshee senses were going crazy and she needed the alcohol to help her sleep. BUT, the hangover part sucks the worst.

Slipping on a pair of shades from their place on the foyer table, she barely hesitated before stepping out of the large house.

Reminder to self: See if I can bum some pills off of someone. This headache is gonna drive me crazy.

Taking another drag from her cigarette, she took a moment to just close her eyes and breathe. There was almost this dark cloud over the town and it felt suffocating.

Ruby shook her head to clear those thoughts, regretting it almost instantaneously as the pain came back stronger than ever. Meandering over to her jeep, she took her time tossing in her bookbag before hopping in herself.

Wonder what the boss wants us for. She idly wondered as she started up the jeep with a loud growl. No bother. I think I have an idea. Her expression was a sombre for a moment before she internally shook off those thoughts, pulling out of the driveway.

Kristen had finally turned into the school's parking lot and parked into her designated parking space. Once she turned off her engine, her phone chimed as she grabbed it and saw that it was Julien texting her back, even though it was something witty. She shook her head while placing her phone back inside of the cup holder, jumping slightly and with a gasp as a guy knocked on her window. It was Weston, another member of her pack and her beta. Opening the door and grabbing her keys, she got out of the car and eyed him as she then closed her door.

"Don't sneak up on me like that." She playfully punched him in the arm then folded her arms over her chest, rolling her eyes because he did nothing but laugh. "I am sure you heard about the assembly that's to take place after first period." Weston mentioned as a confused look plastered Kristen's face now, who dropped her hands by her side now. "No, I did not hear about that but thanks for telling me."

Weston could tell that Kristen was a little bit uneasy and he continued to look at her. "What?" She questioned towards him as he point his finger at her. "Your afraid, aren't you?" Weston asked as Kristen scoffed with an eye roll, waving her hand towards him now. "Don't you have someone else to bother?" Kristen responded as Weston snapped his fingers, nodding his head and walking away. "See you at the assembly." Was the last thing Weston said before departing away from Kristen.

As she continued to stand beside her car, waiting for her pack members to come so that she can tell them what was on her mind. Her eyes peered towards an oncoming car and saw Louis behind the steering wheel. "Finally." She thought to herself as Louis approached her now, along with his little brother. "And who is this?" Kristen asked Louis as she eyed the little fellow beside him.

Louis Moore // Seventeen // Hunter

Louis and his brother kept quiet throughout the car ride towards the school. They really did not have anything to say towards each other though not because they did not like each other but because Larry was truly nervous about his first day. Louis stopped at the final stoplight and turned towards his little brother, placing a hand upon his shoulder. "Look, kid, I know that you are nervous but there truly no need for you to be nervous. It's high school and things get better here." Louis offered the encouragement towards his brother as the light finally turned green, Louis turned into the school and went to his parking space.

His eyes managed to catch Kristen standing there beside her car as he offered her a wave of his hand before shutting his engine off and getting out of his car, opening his backdoor and grabbing his backpack, which he slung over his shoulder. Louis walked closer towards Kristen now as she asked him who the little fellow was standing beside him.

"Oh, this is your homecoming date for this year." Louis commented while pushing his little brother forward a little bit towards Kristen. She stifled a laugh then ruffled Larry hair while looking back at Louis. "Totally kidding but this is my little brother, Larry." Larry smiled and waved towards Kristen then saw some of his friends and ventured off towards them now.

Louis watched as his little brother walked off and let out a sigh. "They grow up so fast, don't they." His ears twitched a little as he heard the rumbling of an engine that resembled a motorcycle. Louis pointed his finger out towards the road now. "Well, here comes Julien. Heard anything from Ruby?" Louis said as they both waited for Julien and Ruby to make an appearance before walking inside the school.

Julien O'Connell // Nineteen // Lone Wolf

"Fuckin' hell."

Julien found himself cursing under his breath as he drove to the school. 2 minutes into the ride, he started getting text messages from the needy blonde he left at his place. Some very... provocative pictures in some feat to try and get him to come back.

It was a very difficult drive to the high school.

BUT, he eventually arrived at the hell commonly known as school. And it was as he was parking that his eyes wandered over to the figures that seemed to be waiting for him. His lips pulled up into a smirk as he parked his motorcycle in an empty spot.

Let's see... we got Queenie and Lauren. Hmm... but no lil' red.

Taking off his helmet and taking out his keys, he ruffled his already messy hair before checking his phone. As he got off his bike with his helmet and keys, he didn't even look up from his phone as he walked over to a waiting Queenie and Lauren. Oh, right. Kristen and Louis... Eh... Queenie and Lauren's better.

Julien gave one last longing look at the pictures that were still arriving before he finally slipped his phone into his pocket. Stopping before the awaiting pair, he gave a grin to the pair as he adjusted his shades.

"Queenie. Lauren. What a beautiful day we're having, huh?" He drawled, hands going into his pockets as he rocked on his heels.

Kristen smiled and chuckled nervously towards Louis' little brother, Larry and was really relieved whenever the little guy ran off towards his friends that were waiting for him. "Nice to meet you." She managed to get out and said sweetly while watching him walk beside his friends now. Hearing Louis' words, her gaze turned towards him as she punched him in the arm.

"You're the second person, well guy, that I punched today. Hopefully you are the last." She muttered then looked out towards the road that lead towards the school as her ears heard the roaring of a motorcycle engine. This was no ordinary engine though, it was the sound of Julien's engine and it did not surprise her when Louis also knew who it was approaching.

When Louis asked about Ruby, she shook her head as she still did not hear anything from Ruby this morning. It was weird but she truly hoped that her friend was okay. When Julien approached the duo, her eyes went over towards Louis with a confused expression then back to Julien. "Beautiful day, indeed." She muttered but did not want to continue with the formalities between them. "Have you heard from Ruby? The bell is about to ring and she hasn't showed up yet."

Her tone was very much worrisome but she could not help but feel that way, especially after everything that was already going on around them.

"Why are you punching people already?" Louis questioned towards Kristen just as Julien made his way into the parking lot and turned off his motorcycle engine. When he approached them, his right eyebrow raised up as he looked towards Kristen then back towards Julien. "Queenie? Lauren? We're not in American Horror Story, Julien." Louis said as he then continued. "Or shall I say, Juliet?"

When Kristen asked about Ruby towards Julien, he was really growing worried himself. Louis had hoped that she was okay but maybe or hopefully, there was a reason for her absence.

The bell rung out and he let out a small sigh, shrugging his shoulders as he eyed Kristen and Julien. "Well, I guess we should head inside." Louis commented as he looked towards Julien now. "Are you actually going to class or do you have someone to visit in jail?" He asked towards him then started a small gallop towards the doors that lead inside of the school building before them.
