"I'll put myself out there one day.. preferably in a long time." She told him and looked at him with a sheepish smile. She still didn't understand how someone could have four girlfriends. She could tell he didn't want to talk about his past relationships so she stayed quiet. If she ever had a relationship how would she tell them she turned into a wolf? A wolf. Anyone who even heard that would laugh or scream. Even if her wolf form wasn't exactly considered as dangerous as some, people still hunted her. She couldn't tell what she was feeling, like a knot in her stomach, butterflies? She had never had this feeling so didn't know what it was. She looked at Mason "You better. No one deserves to be treated like crap."

Mason gave a warm, strangely fond chuckle as he smiled at her. The faintly impish sparkle had returned in his eyes as he said confidently, " I know you'll put yourself out there when you're ready" He gave her a gentle nudge once again, grinning crookedly at her, " You're not doing too bad hanging out with me. I'm sure this counts as slowly putting yourself out there." As Bella continued, Mason couldn't help but smile at her. " Hey, you I'd never treat anyone badly" He said sincerely, " Any girl that becomes my girlfriend'll be treated right." Mason was the last person in the world to treat anyone badly; truthfully he'd rather get hurt than accidentally let someone get hurt. It was just apart of his caring nature to want to protect the people he cared about.

Bella walked into her class, still looking at Mason a bit. She laughed softly as she took her seat, in the back of the class. Sitting in the back of the class teachers couldn't see her not paying attention as she normally drew instead. She set herself up quickly, whispering to Mason "If it counts, putting myself out there may not be that bad. I know you'd never hurt anyone, purposely. But having four girlfriends one of them was bound to treat you badly." She sighed quietly as she pulled her notebook out of her bag. "I'm sure they will be treated right." She told Mason, she knew he wouldn't hurt anyone, just like she wouldn't. She had fought a lot for her old pack, but they never fought for her.

Mason sat in the back of class with Bella - usually he sat up front with his jock friends, but he had decided to sit in the back so he could talk to her before class started. He flashed a crooked grin at her as mentioned that putting herself out there wasn't that bad, " See? It was virtually painless" He whispered back with a playful wink. Mason was glad that Bella was actually was seeming to be more willing to put herself out there. Mason bit his lip slightly when Bella brought up his past relationships. With his caring personality, he was easy prey for people who just wanted to use him. He had let himself be treated badly on more than once occasion " Yeah, I made the mistake once or twice before " He whispered sheepishly, " But, that's all the more reason for me to treat people right."

"Sorry. I'm really intruding." She said to him softly and turned her attention to her notebook. She drew a quick sketch of a wolf, colouring it grey. It was similar to her wolf form, but not exact. She put the date at the top glancing over at Mason quickly, looking at her notebook she whispered "You can go and sit with your friends, if you're looking to do actual work I can't help as I don't do any myself." She showed her drawing to Mason quickly. "Like it?" She asked him and put her notebook back down.

[rubyrocketboots13]

" Nah, it's okay, really " Mason whispered back, giving a small dismissive wave " And I'd rather sit with you. I'm probably not gonna get much work done anyhow. I'm not the greatest student in school" He chuckled and adjusted the books on his desk carefully. Mason looked over at Bella's drawing, visibly impressed " Whoa, that's amazing!" He complimented honestly

[lupins]

She smiled happily. "Thank you." and closed her notebook. She handed it to Mason and told him "Most of the drawings in there are wolves. I'm quite interested in them..". She mostly drew them as she was one herself, but mainly because she was good at it. "I can attempt to teach you one time, to draw that is.". She twirled her pencil around as she watched teacher the draw on the board.

[rubyrocketboots13]

" You're welcome! You're really good with art, Bella " Mason said sincerely. He took her note book carefully, looking over all of her lovely drawings. " Really?" He said, his interest peaking as she mentioned that she was interest in wolves. " Me too, I've always thought they were beautiful creatures" Mason said, though he had a feeling that Bella didn't know exactly just how interested in wolves he was. Being a werewolf, he had always admired many creatures, especially wolves. The dark-haired boy smiled as she offered to teach him how to draw, " I'd love to learn how to draw them" He whispered gratefully, " Maybe I can teach you the stuff I know about yarm work or something?" He offered

[lupins]

"Thanks again." She knew most about wolves, but pretty much everything about werewolves. "I know almost everything about werewolves, most about wolves. It's a reason I'm in the library a lot." She was in the library most of the time, trying to figure out a way to turn herself back from a werewolf to a normal human. She had pretty much given up on trying, knowing she probably couldn't turn back. "I'd love to teach you. That sounds awesome." She answered, a small smile on her face. She took her notebook back and finished her sketch quickly.

Mason's expression flickered with a just barely noticeable worry as she brought up werewolves. " Werewolves?" He said, regaining his composure, " Like in fairy tails? I didn't know you liked them." Mason tried to stop his nervous fidgeting as he glanced away from Bella.Surely she doesn't know that I'm... He pushed the worried thought out of his head and mustered up his usual friendly smile. " Yeah, it would be great to learn how to draw wolves" He said, looking back at her
