12 Chapter 12 " Hell no " I said " I'm saying it's hard not to be mad at them . I mean ever since I can remember they've been nothing but jerks to me and when I left for two years they didn't even bother looking for me because they never cared . But now that I'm back and I'm stronger and …. prettier " I made a disgusted face " they want to act like nothing's changed ? that's messed up " " Is Luxy - woxy feeling like kicking someone's ass ? " Jim asked with a grin and I laughed 2 " Maybe " I admitted " but they're not worth the trouble " " Oh right we forgot to tell you why we came " Dave jumped excitedly " We're going to help you get dressed for the bonfire tonight " " Why ? Just some jeans and a shirt . It's just a bonfire so the two packs can get to know each other " I shrugged and they rolled their eyes at me " But you know we like dressing you up " Dave admitted 20:18 1/7 12 Chapter 12 " You're our cute little sister " he pinched my cheeks and I moved his hand away and rubbed my cheek with a pout " Would you stop doing that it hurts " but they didn't answer instead they started going through my stuff . Eventually they decided on some denim shorts and a red shirt that gets tied behind the neck and shows a bit of cleavage but not too much , and long gladiator Sandals with a bit of a heel in them . " Really guys ? " I said coming out of the bathroom wearing what they picked out they grinned at me mischievously " Your such … guys " I laughed . " What ? we want you to look good " Jim grinned " Plus we want Ethan to see how hot you are " I rolled my eyes . " Guys if you haven't forgot he rejected me . And if he starts liking me now for my looks , no thanks " they rolled their eyes and grabbed my arm . " Whatever , everyone is already in the back yard let's go " I reluctantly followed them out the door muttering ' stupid , evil twins ' in a second they were back standing 20:18 217 < 12 Chapter 12 on either side of me " but we're your stupid evil twins " Dave said " And for calling us that " Jim added " You need to be punished " My eyes widened as I realized what they were going to do " NO " I yelled but it was too late they dug their fingers into my sides and started tickeling me backing me up against the wall . " Guys …. Please ….. No ….. Stop " I said between laughs but they didn't move their hands " Fine I surrender " they nodded to each other and let me go . I slid down to the floor catching my breath before standing up , elbowing both guys in the stomach , and walking outside smirking at their pained groans . Everyone was there and I mean everyone . Both packs were there and there was a huge fire in the middle with logs on the side . People were walking around laughing , sitting beside the fire with their marshmellows . " I see the twins got to you " Xavier said coming up to 20:18 317 < 12 Chapter 12 me with a smirk on his face . " I swear these guys are worse than five year old girls playing dress - up " I told him and he laughed softly . We started walking together , it was nice , walking with Xavier . He always made me feel safe and loved . Why couldn't have he been my mate ? " Why do you think we didn't end up as mates ? " Xavier suddenly asked as if reading my mind . " Because fate has a cruel sense of humor " I answered him and then laughed after seeing his sad expression " Because we were meant to be best friends so we'd help each other . always . " He sighed and looked at me sadly " I kinda wish you were you know - my mate " " I wish you were too " I stopped and faced him " but you'll find your mate..and she's going to be an amazing girl and you'll get married and I'm going to be the godmother of your kids " I grinned at him " Thanks Lily " he hugged me " Your amazing " " Hell yeah I am , I am your best friend aren't I ? " 20:18 4/7 12 Chapter 12 " Always " he smile again and we walked towards the fire . Ethan , Alan , Keith and Peter were there and I they all stared at me . Ethan stood up and walked towards me and I really wasn't in the mood to talk to him , I wanted to hang out with my boys " You look great Lily " he said reaching out for me but I stepped back . I didn't want him touching me . I didn't want to feel those god damned sparks I felt in the morning . I still needed to get used to seeing him , not knowing a thing about him for two years kind of made my wolf restless , so it was hard fighting it now that I'm seeing him " Good to know " I told him bitterly then turned around and walked back into the house . I walked into the kitchen and searched for some ice cream but I didn't find anything . " Damn it where's the junk food when you need it " I muttered and looked more but all I found was some chips . And then I remembered that the twins always keep a secret cookie stash in their room . They don't know that I know , I kept that information a secret for 20.18 5/7 12 Chapter 12 when I needed it , like now . I went to their room and quietly got the bag of cookies and went back to the kitchen and started eating the cookies and thinking about everything . I mean how dare he ? Acting like a kicked puppy from the moment he found out about me . Why couldn't I have a loving mate ? who cares about me no matter what . But no I had to have the arrogant , jerk of an alpha as my mate . " When can we leave ? " I asked myself as I munched on a cookie . say . I " Are these our cookies ? " I heard Dave's voice turned and saw both twins shocked and eyeing they're cookies . Oh shit I thought to myself Time to run . 20:18
