The Wallflower and the Alphas
Chapter 50 "She ran away."

Avery P.O.V.

Twenty. Minutes ago...

What was I thinking showing them how much am a whore I was in front of them. I wanted to dunk down in the water.

After I ran away from the guys that said our mates, I started running away from them, returning to my house before my parents saw me before my party started. So, I walked quickly around the corner. I saw my two best friends standing there talking, and I could see the sadness on their faces because of what happened earlier when I saw Ashely, Jayson, Natalie, and Eli fighting in front of the people who showed up to work as the servers and chef at my birthday party.

"Avery! Sweetheart?" I turned and saw my mother and father standing behind me. I didn't know they were behind me; I thought they were in front of the back door on the patio. While staring at my parents, I didn't hear footsteps behind me when I wasn't paying attention. I was now in front of my parents, and they were giving worried expressions. I felt the heat behind my neck because I could feel my mates closer. I didn't want to stand there in front of my parents, and they would know I was in heat, and I was in the heat because I had found my mate.

Well, they found me, so it's the other way around. I started to think about how wonderful it will be with them then I thought about how it was before when they hated me and didn't want anything to do with me. I started crying in front of my parents and them. Before I hit the ground because I didn't want to stand anymore, I felt dizzy, and my emotions were overboard. You are not good enough for us." I can hear them saying in my nightmares when I would dream about them bullying me and hating me for not being pretty and being the most popular girl in school. I didn't want to be the wallflower loser like they always tell me. So now, here we are, as mates. I still don't believe them, and I need to watch my back because I think I am their plot and jokes. I don't want to consider that, but I can't help it. I should give them a chance to show me they changed, but in my heart, I feel they are trustworthy with their word, want to be with me forever, and love me. But with my head, I feel like they are lying to me that they want to be with me.

"Avery, sweetheart, why are you crying?" I heard my mother say.

But I didn't want her to know what was going on with me, and I didn't want her to worry about it or me. But that will not work because she is my mom, and you can't get past your mother. So, she would get out of me by watching my face, so I bent down my head so she couldn't see my eyes.

So, my mom was still standing before me, and I could feel her eyes on me. So, I thought of a lie, and I thought of it quickly.

I cleared my throat,

"Mom, I am not crying; I got something in my eye. I told her I rubbed something in my eye while showing her I did have something in my eye. When I put my head up and started at my mom, I could see she was not buying it, and I was lying about not crying and being upset. So, I gave her a sweet smile and started talking about my party and thanking them for throwing it for me. Then my mom stared at me, looked at my father, and returned to me, and I could see the look in her eyes. She told me with her eyes we would talk about this later, and then she went back to her sweet and smiling mother. I love them so well, and no, my mother is not mean to me; she is just so protective of her family. After we had a special event, she looked over my shoulder, and so did the guys. She was confused and then looked at my father, and I saw his face; it was white as a sheet, and he was seamless because he was reticent. Then I saw my father light up when he saw it was his best friend's son in front of me outside my house. You can see their wet and look out of breath. Then I saw it. I saw the look in their eyes that they wanted me and didn't care who was in the way. If they get me, I better ensure I am not alone with them again.

"Okay, sweetheart! After you go, get dressed." She said with a sweet smile, kissed my cheek, and looked at them again before whispering in my ear.

"I'll let you alone and remember you got a party coming on." She tells me. She grabbed daddy's arm and pushed him away close to the tables, getting things ready for my party. Once, my parents walked away and left me alone with the guys who was supposed to be my mate and wanted to be with me. I am still trying to understand why them, Lord. I asked God, and they say God has a soulmate out there, but you never know if he or they have been under your nose the whole time. So, I am praying they're not joking, and it's not a stupid bet, and if it is. Suppose they are using me for a laugh. I will never forget them, which breaks my heart, and I will not let them hurt me again.

" Suppose they are using me for a laugh. Then, I will never forget them, which breaks my heart, and I will not let them hurt me again." I told myself.
