I looked around at all the faces. Faces that lied to me. None of them knew that I knew this of course. My father wasn't here, he wasn't allowed, so there was no way they knew what I was about to say.
The wolves I've learned to call my best friends were laughing and joking in front of me in the backyard. We had just ate dinner, like we do together every Thursday night. All the guys and their imprints come together and just hang out, have a stress free night. I really don't want to be the one to ruin it, but I have to let this out.
Paul and Rachel were sitting on the swing that hung from the top of the porch. She was laughing at the corny pick up lines he was feeding her, even though he already had her. Embry, Quil, Seth, and Jake were passing football. I could tell that my Jake knew something was wrong with me. That's just how us imprints are connected. But he still didn't know what was eating me. Jared and his girl Kim were having a staring contest, both of them laughing at the same time, neither winning. I softly smiled at them. Sam and Emily were just smiling at each other, not even caring that we were all here.
Then there was Leah. Alone, like me at the moment. She kept looking at me like she knew something was wrong. She shouldn't worry. I wasn't going to yell at her or her brother. They didn't do anything wrong. But the rest of them…
She watched me stand up. "Uh, can I ask you guys a question?"
Everyone stopped what they were doing and looking at me. "Of course Nessie," Sam said. Funny since you were the leader of this.
I took a gulp. I know they all heard it. My heartbeat started working in over time. All I could do is whisper my question. "Why?"
The guys all glanced at each other in confusion. "What are you talking about?" Jake asked me.
The first tear flowed down my pale cheek. "Why?" I said louder, "Why did you all lie to me? All of you except Leah and Seth. Why?"
They still didn't have a clue.
"I thought you guys were my best friends, but-"
Paul interrupted me. "Of course we are, Shorty!" saying my nickname he gave me.
"Then why did you all want to murder me before I was even born?"
Dead silence.
"Why did you try to kill my family, who did NOTHING to you?"
No answer.
The tears were flowing freely now. "Why did you want to kill something innocent?"
Embry looked pained. "Ness, we didn't know what you were."
I ignored him and looked at my wolf with an icy glare. "Jake, if you loved me, why did you want to throw me out of a window when I was born? Oh yeah, you hated me because you loved my mother. I forgot."
The look on his face made me want to hurt myself for causing his pain. But he caused mine. "Nessie, I thought she was dead, I loved her at the time. But it's you, it always has been."
I snorted. "That's a lie. You thought there was no one that could beat my mother."
"I didn't know you were going to show up and change my life."
I shook my head. "Whatever. You all tried to murder me. And you never thought to tell me this?"
Quil snapped his head up at me. "We didn't know! You could've killed everything in sight!"
"I was a fucking baby, Quil!"
He didn't reply.
"Please, don't blame us. We were just trying to protect humans-" said Jared.
"I was half human."
"Yes but-"
"But what? That means I'm less dangerous than you."
More silence.
"I never want to see any of you again."
I took off into the forest, towards my only home anymore.
If a lot of people like this, I might make a second part to it, but I doubt it'll be a story. Thanks, and review! (:
