Winters Night - Chapter 1
“Jack get the hell up or we will be late for class” snatched the lanky silver haired boy sitting next to the bed.
“Get out of my room” Jack muffled with the thick covers still over his head.
“Dude I live here too, it’s Grey now get the hell up you stubborn bastard” said Grey, now getting annoyed he pulls the cover off of Jack’s face revealing his frosty white hair and cold blue eyes.
Glaring at his friend, Jack threw his covers on the floor and jumped out of bed. As he gets to his feet fully he let out a big yawn. Jack is about six feet tall, a good two inches taller than Grey. Jack’s hair is as white as snow and his skin is almost as pale, which allows you to see all the strong and prominent muscles that pulse in his body.
Grey looked at Jack and said, “So what happened to the idea of the six pack, Frost?”
“Piss off ,Grey. You do realize that we have three more days before the start of our sophomore year right?”
“Yeah,” said Gray “But I thought that you might want to check out the freshman. They just arrived this morning”
Jack looked angrily with a flame in his eyes at Grey, “You know as well as I do that neither of us care about that. But since you got me out of bed so early I guess I will go get a shower so we can go look at the fresh meat” Once jack had thrown the covers back on the bed he went into the bathroom.
Laughing, Grey sputtered “God you still smell like a wet dog.”

About an hour later when Jack and Grey are leaving the dorms when they hear four distinct voices coming at them.
Jack turns around and yells “Stop that annoying yelping!”
No sooner than the order was given the noise ceased. Once the first boy reached them, he said, “Sorry, Frost, but even though you are the alpha, that doesn’t mean you can’t let lose any” The other three agreed once they got behind him.
Realizing that Jack is about to lose his temper, Grey steps in, “No, Mason, it doesn’t but if you draw attention to us and people find out we are wolves then we will have the hunter organization nipping at our asses so keep a low profile and shut your trap”.
The boy standing next to Mason whispered over to him “Just because you are a pure blood like Frost doesn’t mean you have control over us”.
“No, Damian, it doesn’t,” Jack said calming himself down. “But he ismy right hand so that does. Now both of you apologize to Grey for your rude outbursts. Then you both can shut the hell up.”
Both Mason and Damian turn to Grey and give him a half hearted apology.
Jack turned his attention towards the other two who are just standing there and looked over in their direction. “Ben, Tristan, you two go to the chow hall and find us a place to sit.”
“Yes, Mr. Frost” they replied in unison before they both ran off to the chow hall to find seats, just as Jack had commanded they do.
Then he turned to Mason and Damian, “Go to the office and find out who our homeroom teachers are” he ordered.
They just continued to stand there.
“Now!” he barked with an angry aura floating about him.
They turned and took off, scurrying on their way so he wouldn’t get even more angry with them.
“How do you want me to deal with them?” asked Grey.
“As long as they keep their noses clean then they are fine.” replied Jack

As they were walking into the chow hall, Grey say a freshman girl that is sitting just a few tables down from the table that they are heading to.
“That girl over there is starting to creep me out.” Grey whispered into Jack’s ear.
Jack looks over and whispers back “Don’t worry about it. She is too young to be a hunter so we are safe you just have a admirer” he said, chuckling.
Grey started to blush “Don’t joke about that man it’s not funny!”
Laughing, Jack said, “Yeah it really is bro. Dude are you okay? You look kind of sick.”
“I’m fine, Frost, I just need to sit down.” Grey said as he stumbled to a seat.
As they get to the table they see that it already has food for them to eat.
The other four are nowhere to be seen.
“Well at least it will be a quiet meal.” Grey says with a deep sigh.
“Grey what’s going on with you there is something wrong I can feel it. And don’t give me that I’m fine bull shit again!”
“That girl we saw back there.” stumbles Grey.
Jack looks at him with wide, concerned eyes and says “Your shiting me that’s her! That’s the one who you chose. Well damn I thought she was going to be fat and ugly.” Jack starts to laugh.
“Not funny Frost, I don’t even think she is very attractive.” growls Grey.
“Too bad bro!” Still laughing Jack says “Well still lets celebrate. I need a good reason to get a good, juicy rare steak.”
“Fine, but the four dip shits don’t need to know got it!” growls Grey.
“Fine, fine, then let’s get out of here before they come back.” Says Jack, still snickering
Grey looks up and the girl is still looking at him. And as they get up to leave he looks back over his shoulder and she is gone.
——
About seven hours later Jack walks out side of the male dorms and sees the girl from the lunch standing behind a tree alone.
He calls out “Grey get your ass down here we are leaving.” then turns to the girl and motions for her to follow them.
She look at him and nodes.
Grey comes out running and stops next to him, “I’m ready bro.” Grey realizes that she is following them as they start walking, “What are you playing at ass hole?” He whispers to Jack, nervously.
Jack looks at him with a smile, “I have no idea what you are talking about.”
“Don’t play stupid with me I know that you smell her what did you do!”
“Just come on.” Jack says as they get to the steakhouse that is on the campus.
As they slide into their seats the girl walks in.
“We are over here” Jack calls out to her.
“Dude, seriously!” Grey says punching Jack in the arm.
She comes over blushing. Jack allows her to sit next to Grey who is now blushing as well.
Jack gets up and says “Well you two have fun I’m going to sit over there to give you two some space.” Jack walks to a table across the room and sits down.
Jack sits there throughout Greys date not even paying attention to the food, he just sits there watching, and wishing he was as lucky to find his mate.
At the end of the date Grey walks the girl back to her dorm, says goodnight , and starts to walk away glad that the date was over.
The girl watches him turn and take a few steps, “Wait.” she says as she runs up to him, gives him a peck on the cheek, then runs inside.
Grey stands there for a second then says, “You’re a fucking bastard you know that right.”
Jack walks out from behind a corner, “Awww does the little wolfy feel conflicted.” he responds laughing his ass off.
“Let’s head back to the room and forget this ever happened.” said Grey.
Still laughing, Jack says “Sure, but no way am I letting this go.”
—–
“Where the hell have you two been. We are supposed to go huntin tonight. And what is that God awful smell on you Grey?” said Damian sniffing the air.
“Don’t worry about it, let’s just get this over with.” responds Grey trying to keep his cool.
They all head to the forest that’s behind the male dorms. They start to walk through the trees till no one can see them.
“Ok I think this should be good enough we will go out 13 miles then come back. If we don’t find anything then we are out of luck till after the school year starts.” says Jacks as he takes of all of his clothes and transforms into a tall snow white wolf. The rest do the same all of them different colors and shorter than both Jack and Grey. The hunt is on.
They run at top speed through the forest until Jack stops the pack and turns to them, his ears twitching as he listens around them.
Through telepathy Jack says “We are being followed.”
Grey response “Hunters?”
“I’m not sure let’s head back just make sure to cover each other in case something happens.” says Jack.
As the get back to the dorms Jack and Grey walk to there room and walk in. They each strip and fall in their beds and exchange good nights. Jack turns out the lights and curls up into a ball and falls asleep.
