Colorful World by E.S. (classic book list TXT) 📕

Jed picked me up and took me to the cabin. The Cabin will probably our new hang out place now. I hope it is. I walked into the Cabin, no one was there. The door slammed behind me and Rowan stomped down stairs, “they’re gone, Beach”, he was chewing a apple, “why aren’t you with them?”, Jed asked, “their picking up girls. Some one had to tell you where they were any ways”, Rowan exclaimed. I don’t know why, but Rowan never had a girlfriend, well I’ve never seen him with a girl, really. When we are out at the beach and every one has a girl under their spell Rowan walks alone, he’s a good looking wolf too. Jed didn’t ask any more. We went to the beach.

It didn’t take long for us to find the boys, and when we did we found out what they’ve been doing at the beach. There was a large hole in the sand, two metres deep and five meters wide. It was by the water, so the tide would bring water in, there was a couple of garbage bags spreading around it so that the water wouldn’t go sinking through the sand. The boys sat in it, but the only girl there was Ceto. “What happened to picking up girls?”, Jed asked, Ceto smiled a sly smile “I chased them away”, she said happily, Some of the boys did a little laugh. Today I was told that we were going to the beach, so I had my bathing suit under my clothes, I striped off my shorts and shirt, and made sure my bathing suit was not all over the place, “what’s this?”, i asked, Leom said with a grin “hot tub”, I laughed, “why didn’t you just go in a normal hot tub, not one that was made by a pack of freaks”, I asked, “we don’t have to share, come on in it’s just as hot as a hot tub”, Leom said. first I was thinking how did they get it hot, but then i remembered they were wolves, so they’d get it hot just from their heat. I jumped in next to Ceto. “Hey girl”, she greeted, she didn’t look mad at me at all, she was treating me like a normal person. Weird wolfs, with their mood swings. She was sitting next to Kooda, who was joking around with the other boys. The tub was so full that when the tide came in some water splashed in my face, the wolfs were to tall but soon it would bug them too. I just didn’t want to be rude and ask every one to get out because of me.

About ten minutes later I found out my hypothesis was correct, the wolfs had gotten tired of the water and got out of the tub. We walked over the board walk, a group of girls passed by and Kooda was the first one to jump in, the expression on Cetos face made me have to hold back a laugh, I knew how she felt. Kooda was flirting when a boy came along, a very, very cute one, too. Ceto took the moment. She pulled him close and started flirting with him, when Kooda saw he was frowning, but he couldn’t do anything about it, he had started it. That’s when I looked away, didn’t need to get into this. I really wanted to give Ceto a high five though. We walked on, Ceto had dropped her boy, but Kooda had his holding on to his big arm. Ceto stood right next to the girl. Ceto was beautiful, she knew it, but didn’t advertise, but she used it right now, she knew that if she stood next to that girl, the pretty little blond would finally run.

Jed bought me a cotton candy, Kooda had stepped it up and went to go buy a cotton candy for the young sleazy blond, and that’s when I saw Ceto come up behind him with a very scary smile on her face. She hooked Kooda’s arm and whispered some thing in his ear, Kooda couldn’t help but laugh. The blond saw and ran. She came back to me with a new smile, a proud smile, and said “and that’s how you do it”, I was amazed really, “why?”, I asked, I knew that Kooda and Ceto where just doing whatever, going to the beach, and having a friend plus relations ship for fun now, “it’s a fun game, it really gets him mad”, Ceto explained. When Kooda turned around and saw the his beach babe was gone he didn’t even need a minute to figure it out “Ceto!”, he growled, Ceto laughed, as did I, I tried to hold it back, but it was nearly impossible, Kooda’s face was red. He walked over to Ceto, looking like he wanted to kill her, but all Ceto said was “your to good for her, Boo”, Ceto smiled, and that’s all she had to do, smile, and he was wrapped around her fingers once again. Like always.

When we got back to the cabin Atalanta and Rowan were playing twister. Atalanta looked at us with an upside down face “we got it in the mail!”, she explained, Rowan added “yeah, Bruce won it in a contest, so we had to try it out”, then Atalanta added on with a huge smile “yeah, just to make sure it wasn’t poisoned on something, we’d take the bullet”. Rowan and Atalanta were laughing as they tried to untangle each other. I was sitting on the counter as Bruce ordered a party sized pizza.

We sat around the living room, Atalanta sat on the couch snuggled next to Kole, and Ceto was laughing at a joke Kooda said, I was sitting on the floor with Jed, Rowan was getting talking to Bruce about some thing miserable, Leom and Joel were fighting over the last seat on the couch and the rest were squished into one big mess of boys on the couch. Finally Bruce had to ruin the pleasurable moment with him shouting “who’s going to get the pizza?”, none of the boys answered, “you can Bruce, you ordered it”, Rowan said, “your eating it!”, Bruce made the point, Jed got up, “Atalanta you go, you know the workers work faster for you”, Atalanta groaned “but then they all bug me after”, “so what you probably will get a sale if you flirt with them”, Rowan said, Atalanta groaned, again. “Fine whatever, you’re a bunch of lazy bums!”, she walked out of the house with a snort. “Remind me not to ask her a favour again”, Jed said, Ceto shot up from her seat, “that reminds me, I have to do something!”, she walked out the door. “Greek pack, always up to some thing”, Bruce shook his head, “yeah, how long was Athena and them here for straight? A week?”, Leom asked, Joel elbowed him at the pain in Rowans eyes. I was fed up with this “ok! who is Athena!”, I almost yelled, and threw my arms up. “A girl you don’t ever want to meet”, Bruce said, “A troublesome wolf”, Kole added, “A heart breaker”, said Rowan, “A risk taker”, “A no-nonsense personal”, “Athena”. A no-nonsense personal? What does that even mean.

It had been two months, every thing was normal, well as normal as it would get for a teen age girl who was a girl friend to a wolf, little sister was abnormal, and Etc. Like always it was a summer day, and I was hanging out at Jeds cabin. Atalanta was gone, she had been gone for a long time, not days, but more than a couple hours. We were sitting on the couches, “where’s Atalanta?”, I asked. Bruce shurRged “I don’t know, she does that a lot”, he said, “what a lot?”, I asked, “goes out for a long time and doesn’t tell, it’s a purple eye thing, Ceto does it, it’s probably just hunting”, he answered, Rowan added “she told me she was going out for a hunt”, he told us. I nodded.

That’s when I heard a car door slam, the boys ran up to the window, I heard whispering, “holly-”, “what the hell?”, “nooo way”, I heard. I ran up to the window, Ceto in front, she almost screamed, I looked out. It was Atalanta. And a girl. The girl walked with pride, striaght back and forward eyes, Atalanta was standing close, closer than she stood next to any one I’d seen her stand with. Once they got to the door we ran away. Atalanta came in first, “I found some one”, she said smiling a bright blasting smile. The girl/lady walked in. She was wearing a woven top that went higher than her belly button, it was yellow, orange, brown, red, green, and almost every other color, her skirt was long, down to the floor, with the same woven look. She had nig beautiful lips, that were in a shape of a scowl, her skin was mixed with white and brown, her haird was long and red with black tips, she looked like her just came from Africa. The only thing that told me who she really was, was her purple eyes. Big gorgeous purple eyes, long eye lashes, and one look at her could put you in a spell, we was more beautiful than any body in the world. She put Aphrodite in her place. Well, almost. If she were to smile, which I was dying to see now. She was Athena.

I expected her to ask who I was then warm up to me, I was getting ready to introduce myself, too. Atalanta stood beside her. I looked around the room, the boys looked like they wanted to run up and hug her, but some thing was holding them back, Fear? Athena’s hard face? Her beauty? Her refusing to move?. Athena looked right at me, in the eye, and growled. Not a full teeth I’m going to eat you cause I’m crazy growl, but a from my throat so I don’t look crazy, but enough for you to be scared, your so low I don’t even want to know you
