Instinct Pt. 1 by Amora P. (good books for 8th graders TXT) 📕

went to work, probably. By the time she'd get home, it would be about four some thing. and to make matters even more worst, It was starting to rain. suddenly. A truck, that looked like Eli's came up beside her. "I said I never wanted to see you again Eli." she said. Well thats ok, becusae i'm not Eli." a some what girlish voice came from the truck. she turned around. It was his little sister, Chleo. "Oh, hey." she said. "look, it's starting to rain and you probably don't wanna walk in the rain, so I would advise you to get in." she said. It was raining alittle. "I'm alright." Clara lied. Out of nowhere, it started pouring down rain. "Really?" she asked her self. Chleo stopped the car so she could get in. When she got in the truck, Chleo, smiled out the window. "wow, mother nature is a bitch." she said smiling at Clara, who wasn't really in the mood for jokes.
Once the truck drove down Clara block It suddenly stopped raining. "Well, here we are, nice house." Chleo said scanning the house. Too bad she was a werewolf, she could've passed for a human. Clara got out of the car. "Um. I'll give the clothes back, i promise." Clara said. "Don't sweat it, keep it as a gift of some sort." Chleo said. Clara smiled. "Oh, and before you leave, just know, even though my idiot brother turned you and made you apart of our pack." Clara tried to block out the word pack, the movie twilight suddenly came to mind. At lease she was right about one thing, Eli was an Idiot. Eli really cares about you, and your saftey, even though you hate him now, soon it will be more than that." she said. well thank you for the words of wisdom, but, im not a werewolf, and im not apart of you, pack." she finger qouted the word 'pack'. OK, just thing about it though." Chleo said as she drove off. Clara watched her. Did I just get told by a sixteen year old?

she asked herself.

After Clara got into the house, her mother luckily wasn't there. She stripped herself of Chleo's wet clothes. she soon took a hot shower after that. when she got out, she put on her own clothes, A short sleaved blue shirt with denim shorts, it was hot inside her house. she put her fuzzy slippers on and went downstairs, whatching TV. So many questions ran through her mind, like how did jane know that Eli was a werewolf and she didn'y, or how did neither one of the told her about it. She knew one thing, she was gonna confront her about it later tomorrow, since she knew.

chapter V

Today was the day, Clara had finally made the decision to confront her friend. She had it all planed out. She drove to school that morning with out breakfast. But, that wasn't the only reason why she wanted to confront Jane. If it was anything Jane was good for, it was closure. And with the whole Eli fiasco, she needed it, badly. She made it to the parking lot of her school went she saw Jane walking up the steps. she got out the car and called her. "Jane! Jane!" Jane turned around, but kept walking. Clara looked confused. Quikly, she got her bag and tried to catch up with Jane. And when she did, Jane looked as if she didn't wanna be bothered. "Jane, didn't you hear me calling you?" she asked. Jane turned around. "your my bestfriend right?" jane asked. "well yeah." Clara asked. "And you would never lie to me right?" Jane asked. Clara put her hands on her hips. "well, I should be asking you the same thing." Clara said. she could tell things were heading for the worst. "what do you mean?" Jane asked. "Nevermind what are you talking about." Clara said. "Clara, what really happened on your so called date with Eli?" She asked. "Nothing, we were just by the lake watching the stars and talking, and it wasn't a date." she said. "Wow, you just lied to me right to my face." she said walking away. Clara followed her. "what do you mean, I didn't lie." Clara played stupid. She knew what really happened on the date with Eli. "Eli told me you two kissed." Jane said, now crying. "Jane, ok we kissed, but why do you care?" Clara asked. "Because, I liked Eli and you knew it, but I guess you go around kissing every bodies crush huh?" Jane was now angry, Clara knew that if she was gonna confront her it would only make her angrier. "Jane, I am so sorry, I am such an idiot." she admitted. "yeah, but thats not all you are." Jane said. "Your a bitch." Jane said walking away.
Clara, now in her car at luch crying her eyes out. She just lost both of her friends. You should've told her you idiot.

She thought to herself. She wasn't even in the mood for food. She had a sudden craving for meat. Suddenly there was a knock at her window. She couldn't really see through all the rain drops on her window but she knew who it was. She wiped her eyes. "I don't wanna talk to you Eli." she said. "Look, jane told me what happened with you guys earlier, I'm really sorry." He said. "Look, I don't care I don't wanna talk would you just go!" Her voice was raspy. He exhaled and leaned against the car. There was a awkward silence between them. "I'm sorry." He said. She rolled her eyes. "For everything, It's my fault for the whole Jane thing, and the other stuff, I don't blame you If you never talk to be again." He had a point. "I was getting there." she said. He chuckled. "But that doesnt mean I won't stop keeping an eye on you, I did create you." He said. She rolled down the window. "You know I don't need a babysitter right now, ok I can take care of myself." She said. He walked up to the window. "Oh really, than explain why you walked about three miles into the woods?" He asked sarcastically smiling. She turned to him. "Because I did, anymore stupid questions." He stood silent. "Becusae Of you Jane called me out of my name, I'm starving, I haven't eatin in two days, and suddenly I have a craving for meat, and I'm a vegetarian!" Eli couldn't help but chuckle. she turned her head and looked up at him. "This is amusing to you?" she asked. he looked down at her and shook his head. She sat back in her seat. "She likes you you know." Clara couldn't hold that in anymore. Eli looked up at the sky and exhaled. "Yeah, she told me today, she just came out with it." He said. Clara sat In confusion. "What did you tell her." she had a desire to know. "I told her I was in love with somebody else." Clara folded her legs in her seat. "Really?" she said. He nodded. "you know its you right?" he asked now knealing at her window side. She didn't look at him. she was distracted by jane coming down the steps of the school. she and Clara eyed each other but Jane rolled her eyes and continued walking. Did you hear me?" Eli was hoping she would respond. "Look Eli, I would really like to finish this convertsation, but I have some where to be." She lied. He looked at the ground and stood up to let her get out of the car.
*************************************************************************************************
As they sat in History class, Jane and Clara didn't speak a word to each other, they just shared side glares. Eli sat in the back Paying Clara more attention than the history teacher. Clara could tell that he was watching her, He said he was anyway. She took a glimpse at the clock. two fifty five, five more minutes and she'd be one. She tapped her foot to get her mind off of Eli and Jane. But since Clara Didn't eat lunch today, her stomach was extra angry with her. She stopped tapping her foot and exhaled. She looked at the clock once more. Two fifty seven. "Dammit." she said under her breathe.

"Oh my god, are you ok, oh please don't die, I don't have insurance." a womans voice said, Before Clara could figure out who hit her with a chevy truck, she idmediatly blacked out.

Now in the hospital, Clara could feel needles and bandages against her skin. Two needles were in each of her arms and a bandage on a wound on her head. she was in pretty bad shape. Her mom suddenly came running in. "Oh, my baby, are you ok!?" she idmediatly hugged Clara making her side hurt. "Mom, i'm ok." The doctor came in. her tag said D. Sanchez. Miss Paige, your far from ok, you have a broken arm a fracured rib cage and a minor head wound. Her mother eyed her with a stern face. Clara didn't know why she gave her a red eye, she didn't do anything, or so she thought. "Does that ok to you, Clara you could've died, what were you doing in rosemount any way?" Clara's face lit up.Not again.

some how, she knew Eli wasn't far behind her mother, and coincidence, Eli came in and his sisters waited for him in the waiting area. "Hey, you alright, I just heard." he said. Like you don't know what happened.

She thought to herself. as she watched the doctor leave the room she made up a plan for her mom to also. "Uh, mom, im feeling kinda dry can you get me a soda?" She asked fake
