As i get out of my car at school i notice im getting a lot of stares, so i put my head down and head to my locker trying not to draw anymore attention to myself but i may aswell have a beacon above my head because everyone seems drawn to me, as i get to my locker i hear the dreaded voice of Shannon behind me "oh hey loser, so you havent run away yet then?""No Shannon i havent and im not going too","Luke is mine bitch and im going to make you pay for even thinking you can go near him",Just then i see Luke walking down the corridor with Jamie, as if sensing me his eyes flick up to mine and i hear quite clearly in my head "god i want to kiss you" so with a smile on my face and to the shock of everyone watching i take quick strides towards Luke and jump in his arms where he catches me leans me up against a wall and starts kissing me as if we have both been starved of oxygen,"Err guys i am here......... nice ill just see you later then" Jamie says"Mr Maison put miss J

Once i get home i have to put up with my mom worrying over me, Gem told her i had disappeared from school and that the gossip was saying i had passed out but nobody seemed to know why there, was a lot of speculation the simplest one being that im just unhealthy and couldn't take the run others included i got lost and scared myself so much i passed out but the one i found funniest was the one where a big dog chased me untill i passed out, i thought tellimg mom the truth would make her feel better but i was wrong shes fretting that im going to be bullied and now want me to move in with pops "but mom im fine""Well thats ok for you to say, when i was told about this Shannon girl challenging you i thought it meant one on one a little battle then its all done but knoooow now Gem tells me it could be a fight to the death", i look at Gem who mouths "sorry", i give her a little smile but mom notices and scowls at us "look mom""No i dont care what your going to say Beth your not fight

The next morning i lay in bad with Luke beside me feeling nervous, its great that Luke and his parents are on my side but with all the confidence they have in me lets face it i have no experience, even with my skills, they are new, i have only just found out i have them so its not like iv been able to master them,"I can hear you" Luke says beside me, once again listening to my thoughts, so i turn to look at him "ya know with all these skills the moon godess gave me, you would have thought i could have learnt to block you out of my head by now, ""Well its a good job i can hear your thoughts with all the worrying you do- im amazed you haven't had a heart attack ""Shut up " i say shaking my headas i go to get out of bed but before i have a chance to pull the quilt back I'm dragged to the centre of the bed "oh no you dont" Luke says getting on top of me to pin me down, "look Shannons all show, and iv seen what you can do that's why im not worried""Butvwhat if she is bett

The next few weeks although were kind of stressful for everyone else, for me they were stress free, Luke had made sure that i do a minimum amount of tasks for the Luna ceremony so all i had to do was pick a dress and choose haw i wanted the ceremony to happen, i had alreadt decided that i wanted Gem and Bianca with me for support because i didn't have a clue how things were supposed to be done, Christie had explained the ceremony itself could be simple or extravagant but Luke had felt i would be more comfortable if it was simple for which i eas very grateful, so it was decided that we would have the ceremony at the lake the go back to the pack house and have a party, then Luke said he was going to take me away for the weekend because he wanted me all to himself.Mom and Christie got on great, they were both there when i picked my dress and both had tears in there eyes, Gem was her usual whirlwind self and i found myself spending more and more time with her which meant i also spen
