What about Embry?
He has feelings too, you know. Now it's time to acknowledge him.
Chapter 1: Give it a rest!
We were hanging out in the woods, me and Jake. I'll let you know, Jake is my best friend, and I could never stay mad at him. But he's driving me insane! I know he loves Bella, and it hurts him to think about her, but I love her too! Doesn't anyone care?
There he goes, interrupting my private thinking with thoughts of her. It hurts me just as much as it hurts him.
'No way would she ever love me, too busy with the bloodsucker. Even in my dreams she spits in my face. I wish-'
'Jake, you're doing it again, just give it a rest.' I was playing the part as the best friend by reminding him I could read his thoughts, constantly. Why can't he just SHUT UP?
'Sorry, Embry. Thanks for letting me know.'
'No prob… It's what I do.' Sadly, this makes me liking Jake less and less. It's always about him, his feelings. How many times in the timeline of my life has he asked me how I feel?
'So how was your day?' Ok, guilt rushing through, and now I feel terrible.
'Fine, heard from Bells at all?' I think it's an innocent enough question.
'IT'S BELLA! Don't call her what her, her, bloodsucker calls her!' I think he was trying to avoid saying boyfriend. We were already in were-wolf form, so I wasn't afraid of him transforming. We remained silent. Well, except for Jake's muttering insults that filled his brain. I took the time to do more private thinking.
What were we doing again? I racked my brain, but it didn't take long. Jake and I were waiting for Sam to show up. He had gone to meet with the village elders. We were trying to make contact with other werewolves. I was going, but none of us in the pack were sure if Jake should go, not that we've told him this. Paul was narrow-minded when it came to dealing with Jake's constant dilemmas with Bella.
'Sorry for getting touchy, Embry. I still need to work on my anger.'
'It's ok. You're getting better at it.' I decided to change the subject. It worked, he was in a much better mood now. I saw his wolfish anger change into a pleasant smile. Before he could reply, Sam, Paul, and Jared had run into the clearing, judging by Paul's facial expression, he had heard the Bella part of the conversation. But then again, I didn't like the look on Sam's face either. Nor do I think the meeting went well.
