"Ok so I've won Marco polo, diving contest, colors, and every other fucking game we played." I stated simply.

"That's because your a cheat!" James accused me.

"Oh grow up and admit that I am better than you!" I smirked.

James smirked back. "Never!" He stated.

We have been going back and forth for about 20 minutes now. Me trying to get him to say that I'm better, him calling me a cheat. Even though really I wasn't.

"Do it James or you'll regret it." I stated matter of factly.

"And what is a little girl like you going to do about it? Hum?"

That was the last straw.

With a giant war cry, I tackled him down in the water, getting on his back, and making him carry me about like a fucking horse. "That's right bitch bow down!" I screamed at my pimp.

HAHA I'm totally going to call him my pimp now.

"Never!" James jumped backwards, causing my to hit the water. But I wasn't letting go of his back. He will have to drown me first.

Which honestly, I thought that is what he was trying to do at first, but just when my body told me to breath, Jame's brought me back up for air.

"I'm going to have to punish you now. You've been a bad pimp." I said scolding him.

I tried I really really did. But I couldn't couldn't hold my laughter back when I saw James' face. I mean you would have thought I just killed a puppy. (Which I would never ever do.)

"Did you just call me your pimp?" He asked stunned.

"Hell yeah I did." I was still laughing but it came out pretty clear.

"Oh. I'll show you what a pimp is alright." And with that he kept drowning me. Over and over.

"That's." Drowned "It" drowned. "Your." Drowned. "Getting." Drowned. "Punished." Drowned. "To-" Drowned. "STOP!"

James stopped. Then he freaked out, checking me over and making sure I'm fine.

"What's wrong Max?"

"You have to let me finish the word before you can drown me." I stated as if it was the most obvious thing in the world.

"Really that's why you made me stop?"

"Well yeah."

James just rolled his eyes. "Tell me what you were trying to say. I wasn't even listening."

OH REALLY!

"No. I'm not telling you anymore then. You'll just get punished."

James laughed. Like a true laugh. That was contagious. Cause the next thing I know I was laughing.

"And.....how....do....you...plan... on doing....that." James said between laughs.

I stopped laughing right then and there. "Like this."

Then I drowned him. Then let him up. Then drowned him again. Then let him up. But he would not go back down.

"Oh. Your so funny. Ha.HA.HA." James pretended to laugh while giving me the 'really' look.

"Hey you did that to me. It was only fair." I said. Then I smiled, and turned my back towards him while crossing my arms. "Pimp."

The next thing I know, I'm flying half way across the pool.

Now don't get me wrong. I'm not fat. I only weigh like 115. And I had a toned body. But there was no way, even with James having a sexy as fuck 8 pack that he could throw me from all the way at the shallow end, this far. I was practically under the diving board.

"What are you on steroids?" I asked in all seriousness.

"Something like that." He smirked.

I was just about to say something back, when a loud roar sounded from somewhere in the house, causing both James and I to look towards the French doors that we came out of.

"Travis is home." I said in a singy song voice.

Time for my plan to start.

-----------------

It was like not even a minute later, when Travis came storming out. Cole following behind him.

"Hey Gavin. What are you doing here?" Cole asked. I knew Cole didn't like him. But at least he was trying to act nice.

"Hanging out with Max. She invited me over here cause she was bored and had nothing to do."

"YOU know better than to come onto our land." Travis growled.

I watched closely as Travis clenched and unclenched his hands.

"Yeah but Max invited me. There was no way I could pass that up." James smirked.

Is it just me or does it feel like they are having a totally different conversation?

"Well you should have said no." Travis stated in a voice that sounded nothing like him. It was more dark, and deep. Almost scary like.

"Well I wasn't going to hurt her. She is my best friend after all." James smirked. I knew he was egging Travis on. "I mean look she even let me borrow a swim suit." James smirked as he stood up.

When Travis saw that James was using his swimsuit. His whole body started shaking.

"Travis calm down." Cole warned.

No Travis don't calm down. I want to see if your a FUCKING werewolf. (don't hear that everyday.)

Travis shrugged his shoulder free of Cole's touch. "DON'T TOUCH ME!" Travis growled. "YOU!" He pointed at James."GET OUT!"

"See I would. But you weren't the one invite me. Max was." He pointed towards where I was treading water in the deep end. Causing Travis to look at me for the first time since he came storming out here.

His eye's were completely black. It was almost alluring. "You invited him here!" He growled lowly at me. Probably not wanting to scare me like last time.

"Yes. He is my friend." I stated in a duh tone. Not wanting to show any fear that I may or may not have right now.

"He is no friend of ours. There's a reason why we hate him. MOM HATES HIM!" Travis roared. It was as if those three words ended his calmness.

"She doesn't hate me Travis. How could a mother hate her son?" James smirked.

Wait what? Son? James what Pat's son? Time out. I was kissing my bother? Well adopted brother.

"YOU ARE NO BROTHER OF MINE!" Travis seemed to have a hard time getting those words out. Was he sad about this?

"But I am. Don't you remember? All the fun we had?" James was acting like this was a game that he was winning.

"LEAVE JAMES!" I knew that was the last warning Travis was going to give.

"You see Max and I were having a pretty good time. Not as fun as last night," James winked at me, causing me to blush.(Which for some reason, I really didn't want to blush. Not in front of Travis at least.) "and I don't want to leave. Not without a goodbye kiss."

Travis let out the loudest roar in the history of roars. I mean it was bigger than the one at the school. I'm pretty sure the neighbors 5 miles away heard it.

But with that roar, I went into complete shock, as the sound of clothing tearing, and bones cracking reached my ears. I let out a small whimp like scream. Not loud enough that anyone in the house could hear it. But everyone on the pool area could.

I was scared. I was more scared now than I was last night. Cause right where Travis used to be standing was a big black huge wolf. The same wolf that interrupted Tyler and I, the same one that showed up at the school. The same one that was in my dreams.

I had been right.

Travis was a werewolf.

And apparently so was Cole, and James.

And I just knew that shit was about to go down. And it was all my fault.
