My Hot Alpha

"Everything okay honey?". Charlotte asked as she began to clear the plates away. I felt rotten because I couldn't finish my dinner. She had made so much.

"Yeah".

"You finished? Would you like some coffee?".

It was getting late I shouldn't really have coffee but I didn't want to be rude and it never stopped me before. "Yes please thank you".

"You okay?". Alanna whispered.

"Yeah are you?".

"Want to car share tomorrow?". She asked.

"Yes and we can stop for some coffee before we get to school. I have a feeling tonight is going to be a long night. I still have chemistry work to do". "How does he expect you to write down the answers?". She frowned.

"Good question". I laughed. Shrugging my shoulders her mom came back with my coffee.

"You girls okay?". She asked. "Come into the living room it's much warmer in there". So we did we followed her through.

She was right it was toasty in here.

Alanna had her face buried in her phone and her mom wouldn't stop staring at me.

"Leah?". "Yeah?".

"I'm sorry about earlier". She said catching Alanna's attention. "I shouldn't have put you on the spot like that it's just Jake-..." "Mom". Alanna warned.

"He needs a nice girl, a strong girl I'm sick of him bringing all them floozies home".

"Mom". Alanna groaned. "Stop it now please".

"No bloody wonder. Did you see that girl he brought home last week. I had to chase her out of here because she wouldn't leave". "I thought Jake had his own house?". I questioned.

"Oh he does honey but he likes to treat mine like a whore house. He's fly I don't know they're here until I get up in the morning".

I didn't know what to say.

My expectations of Jake were slipping every minute I was here. He seemed like a right charmer and his mom wasn't holding back. "The boy needs to reign it in before it's to late. Heart of gold but he's a slag". I bit back a laugh.

"Okay mom I'm going to walk Leah home". That sounded like a good idea.

"Don't be a stranger Leah".

"Night Mrs Taylor oh I mean Charlotte".

It was chilly tonight. The temperature had definitely dropped.

"I'm sorry about my mom". Alanna sighed. "She shouldn't have said any of that".

"What that your brothers a slag?" I laughed.

"He's really not".

"Hmm". Reaching my house I turned to her. "Thanks for asking me over tonight it was fun". I grinned. "See you tomorrow".

"Leah?".

"Yeah?".

"He really isn't a slag he just-..."

"It's nothing to do with me". Cutting her off I held my hands up. "Goodnight I'll see you in the morning". Closing the door behind me I fell against it. "Leah is that you?".

Slipping off my shoes I undid my jacket and hung it up. "I've got some goodies if you want some. They're on the counter. How was your dinner?". She asked. "Charlotte is lovely isn't she".

"It was good and yeah they're both lovely. How was your day?". She had brought home chocolate muffins but I was still stuffed from dinner.

"It was pleasant honey. I got seeds for the garden and I also got little lights to go around the fence".

"Where is it you go?". I asked. We needed to have this conversation.

"Excuse me?".

"I never see you anymore. You're away early doors and then you don't come home till late. Where do you go?".

"Leah Wilson".

"I'm sorry I shouldn't have said anything. I'm going to head to bed for school. Night".

"I have a friend out here". I stopped in my tracks. She knew people out here? "I-I got back in contact with him a few years ago".

"Okay"....

"I'm not getting any younger Leah and George has lived out here for years. Can you believe we were high school sweethearts?". She smiled. "Gran are you trying to tell me you have a boyfriend?".

"Oh gosh no he's just a friend". She gushed cheeks going scarlet. "I enjoy his company".

"I'm sure you do". I grinned. "I'm going to head up stairs". Bending down I kissed her cheek. "Night gran".

"You're not mad?". She asked.

"If you're happy then I'm happy". Heading upstairs I turned the shower on letting the steam heat up the bathroom.

Tonight had been a very interesting night. Stripping out of my clothes I wrapped a plastic bag around my hand before going for a shower.

I was in bed for ten o'clock. I was currently watching greys anatomy and stuffing my face with flaming hot Cheetos, living my best life.

I had a look through the work Mr Robinson had gave me. He didn't expect me to write anything he left a note asking me to have a look over what they went over that day.

It was pointless, I was going to fail chemistry. I just didn't seem to get it. I had texted Ryan asking if he could also come over Friday as well. I needed all the help I could get.

I had decided I wasn't going out with Jake on Friday. I hadn't plucked up the courage to let him know just yet but I would. I wasn't interested in becoming another notch on his bed post. Besides I had to focus on graduating not going out on dates. There was plenty of time for that after school finished.

I was scrolling through Facebook when he texted.

'You okay princess?'

If I didn't text him back he'll think there's something wrong. He hadn't done anything wrong he wasn't my boyfriend I didn't have a say in what he did or more to the point who he did. 'Yes! Just heading to bed. Night'

After sending him a message back I turned my phone onto silent and put it under my pillow. It vibrated.
