White Wolf
.I
Time seemed to have stopped and the world shifted when Jacob stared into those stunning grey eyes. They were everything he ever wanted and everything that he would ever need. He took a step forward, intent on getting closer to the other. He knew that was his imprint, his mate, his other half, and he needed to get near to the other. He could see the cautiousness and the wariness in those stormy grey eyes and knew he had to approach carefully. It would not do to scare off his intended.
It was a loud growl that broke him out of his trance and he stared, half-horrified and half-enamoured, at his mate. His very large, very furry, very four-legged mate. And even through his horrification, he still felt that his mate was perfect. The pristine white fur, the cute nose and of course, nothing could beat those beautiful eyes.
Dude, did you just imprint onto a male wolf?
Jacob visibly jumped at Embry's sudden remark, causing the white wolf in front of him to snap its jaws at him before turning around and trotting off. It was only with much effort did Jacob resisted the urge to follow it. He stared after it as it went, desperately trying not to look at the swaying ass and tail, his horrification growing with every second.
When the other wolf was finally out of sight, Jacob snapped back into himself. He groaned and whimpered, sinking onto the forest ground, his front paws coming up and covering his eyes. He would have tried tearing out his hair if he had his hands but he did not trust himself to have the focus to transform back now.
Why do these things only happen to me?
"Here you go,"
Jacob Black looked up from his downcast position into Leah's mirthful face. He scowled at her before reaching out and taking the cup of water offered to him. The Pack was gathered around him, sitting in his living room and discussing the latest piece of gossip. He could only be thankful that they had somehow managed to herd his father off to Charlie's. He did not want to imagine his father's reaction when he found out that his son had imprinted on a male wolf. Even a female wolf would have sound better than a male one.
...wait, scratch that. It did not really make much difference what gender the wolf was. The main point was that it was a wolf. Which was definitely not human.
He could already imagine his father fainting of shock. In the most optimistic situation, that is.
Jacob sighed, wishing Fate would stop playing with him.
"So..." Sam said, looking utterly scandalised, before he fell silent as though he had no idea what to say to such a situation.
And Jacob did not blame him. If he was in Sam's shoes, he would probably be equally bewildered.
"Well I think it's rather cool," Seth supplied helpfully.
Quil snorted at the comment and Embry, who was holding back his laughter, had to jab him in the ribs to stop him from making some indecent joke.
Jacob shot a glare at Quil before answering Seth, "A wolf, Seth, a wolf. He's not even human," He grumbled.
"Imagine that, Jacob Black, living as a wolf for the rest of his life," Leah apparently found the whole situation hilarious.
"Thanks Leah, for the support," Jacob said dryly.
Sam cleared his throat, breaking apart Embry's and Quil's laughter, "Well, as per Pack policy, we will accept... him... into the Pack,"
"Thanks, I guess," Jacob said wryly.
"Do you think Jacob can understand actual wolf language?" Seth asked.
Paul let out a series of growls as an answer and the room erupted into laughter.
"Real funny," Jacob muttered as he threw a cushion at Paul's head.
"Not my fault that you imprinted on a wolf. A male wolf at that,"
"Why a male though? That's rather strange. What happened to continuing the family line?" Jared asked.
"Can you seriously imagine Jacob fathering some wolf cubs?" Quil quipped, dissolving into silent laughter as he imagined the large russet brown wolf with a few cubs running around his legs.
Jacob groaned at the mental image, "That is seriously not helping the situation,"
The only response to his comment was loud laughter.
"Hey, have you heard? There's a new kid in town," Quil said as he closed his locker, looking over at Jacob who was still stuck in his, pulling his books out.
"Really? Who would want to come to this backwater town?"
"No idea, heard it's some rich British kid,"
Jacob snorted, "Must be an eye-opening experience for him then. Daddy must have been displeased,"
"And I really do appreciate your thoughts on my Father," A voice drawled from behind him and Jacob whirled around in surprise.
The boy in front of him was tall, considering normal human's standard, and pale with hair so blond that it was almost white. His features was almost aristocratic and with the way he held himself, Jacob thought he felt rather like some royalty. But the thing that caught his attention most was the grey eyes. Eyes which he realised with a start, was narrowed at him as those thin lips twisted into a sneer.
"And I would also be absolutely thrilled if you could just move your humongous arse so that I can access that pitiful thing you Mug- ...commoners call a locker,"
"Sorry man, no need to be so snippy," Jacob held his palms up in mock-surrender before moving aside.
"So, you're the new kid?" Quil asked, watching the other boy's lips curled in disgust at his opened locker, "What's your name? I'm Quil, Quil Ateara,"
The boy did not reply until he closed his locker, opting not to place any of his new books into the tiny dingy space. Jacob briefly wondered what his parents must be thinking, sending such an obviously pampered son to La Push.
He turned around to face Quil then, a fake smile plastered on his face that made Jacob hold his breath as he waited for the bomb to drop, "Nice to meet you. I'm None, None of Your Business," With that, the smile dropped and he turned away, walking off to find his class with his timetable in hand.
Jacob burst into laughter at Quil's scowling face. The blond was amusing and Jacob was rather glad that the sarcastic wit was not directed at him.
Embry joined them a while later and they walked to class together, Quil grumbling under his breath and Jacob filling Embry in while trying not to snicker too loudly.
It was only later in his English class that Jacob learned the name of the snarky blond. Draco Malfoy had introduced himself with a bored expression on his face, ignoring the excited squeals of the females in class. Admittedly, the boy was rather good-looking with a rather sexy accented drawl, and it was impossible for Jacob to deny his attractiveness, especially when his looks was combined with that prickly personality. His little wolf problem distracted him though, so Jacob was hard-pressed to find enough enthusiasm to join the other males in the class in giving Draco the dirty-eye.
He grinned however, when the teacher told Draco to take the seat beside him. The harassed look on the blond's face was enough to tell that Jacob that he had not only remembered him, but also found him an irritation. It was probably Quil's fault that Jacob seemed to be classified as a pest by association.
"So," Jacob began when the blond slide disdainfully into the seat next to him, "Do I call you None or Draco now?" He grinned at the annoyance on the blond's face.
Draco glanced at him and leaned in nearer, as though he was about to whisper a secret. Unknowingly, Jacob mirrored the action, waiting eagerly for the next sharp remark. Draco did not disappoint.
"How about you... Sod off?" Draco made a shooing motion with his hand before straightening himself back into his seat.
Jacob grinned, "Alright then, Sod," He said cheerfully, ignoring Draco's glower, "Got your textbook?"
He ignored Jacob, pulling his own textbook onto the table and pointedly opened his book to the correct page before proceeding to ignore Jacob for the remainder of the lesson. Jacob grinned, thoroughly amused by the new boy, his mood improving from the weekend.
Especially since the maddening urge to be near his imprintee finally subsided.
