No One's Luna novel Chapter 4

The past three days have agonizingly gone by. I have most of my classes with Colin and it has been extremely awkward. For me at least. I swear he knows or senses something because he has looked back at me at least a few times each class. It may be because I keep looking at him.

I have been day dreaming about him and I being together a lot the past couple days. I can sense Leia clawing at my head trying to claim her mate. I wish I could just tell him now, but it's frowned upon in our culture to ruin the moment of realization for your mate.

Today is Friday, the homecoming game and the day that Colin turns seventeen. The day that he finds out we are mates. My stomach has been doing backflips all morning. There is no way I’m getting through the day without puking multiple times.

Tomorrow is the homecoming dance and I have my dress and shoes waiting. My mother bribed and forced me to go shopping with her to get a dress which I don’t typically wear for anything but special occasions. She gave me a sob story on my birthday. It worked.

***Flashback*****

“You know, I was so excited when I found out you were a girl. I always wanted to have a little girl of my own to dress up and to do girly things with. Unfortunately, the Moon Goddess decided to make you into a little Tomboy for your dad.”

Her nose scrunched and she elbowed me in the side. My mom loves me exactly how I am, so I know she was just joking with me. We have an amazing relationship, but I am sure it still makes her sad that I don’t dress up or act girly. It’s not that I hate it or anything. I just don’t see the point.

“Homecoming, prom and your wedding day Ellie, those are the only days that I beg you to let me dress you up and make you my little baby doll.”

“Ok mom, I’ll give you those three days. As long as you never call me a baby doll ever again.”

“Deal!” She squealed so loud, clapping her hands and jumping up and down. She quickly grabbed her keys and my hand, practically dragging me to her car, and we were off to the mall. We probably shopped at six different stores before finding the right one, and then another three for the perfect shoes and accessories.

We ended our shopping trip with mother daughter manicures and pedicures. I have to admit that it was the most fun I have had in a long time. It made me really happy to see her smile so much. She must have taken at least 100 pictures of us together.

She is so ridiculous, but I love her for it.
