"Embry! Why'd you stop walking?!" yelled someone from behind him. I tried looking over his shoulder, but he was just too tall. I leaned to my left, and I could see at least 5 more boys about the same height as him. Damn, they are huge. There must be something in the water here. They all started whispering to each other, and I looked at the one that yelled moments before. He had beautiful skin, and he stood taller than Embry. His hair was just tied in a pony tail and his face gave off this very boyish quality. I squinted, imagining him with spikey hair.
"Jake?...ahhh, Jacob Black." I said uncertainly at first, but finished with a smile of confidence. The boys moved apart leaving Jacob in the middle. He stared at me with confused brown eyes, and I caught some of the things that were being said by the boys.
"Oh, the hot chick knows him."
"Who is she?"
"Holy shit, look at his face..."
Jacob took a step forward, and stared at me a little more. He looked like he was thinking very very hard, and I just kept smiling at him. He gave up, and I could tell instantly.
"Uhm, do I know you?" He asked.
"Hell, I'd like to know her...she's cute." said a voice smugly.
"Shut up Seth!" hissed the group of boys at him.
"Aww, Jake. I can't believe you forgot me. You promised you wouldn't, remember? When all the boys made fun of me for not catching up to you guys?" I said quiet enough for him to hear. I waited for his reaction, but he didn't move. He didn't twitch, blink, or breathe. I turned to walk away, because I didn't want to wait for him. Either he was really stupid, or he totally forgot. I heard a rumbling of feet coming towards me and I was lifted up into the air, having my lungs crushed.
"FAY!" said Jacob as he laughed, swinging me around in the air. I could feel his whole body shake against me.
"Took you long enough!" I said as he put me down on the ground, I threw my arms around him and hugged him tight. It was then I noticed that he felt like he had a temperature, like he was sick or something.
"Are you okay? You're so warm." I stated as we pulled away from the embrace. He laughed once more, shrugging my question off, not answering it.
"Jeez, You've changed a hell of a lot." He said smiling down at me.
"What? Is that a bad thing?" I asked.
"No!" yelled the smaller boy Seth as he laughed.
"Sorry about Seth, he's pretty annoying. I guess you'll have to get used to it for the while being." He said as we started walking toward the bonfire.
"While being? I've officially moved here."
"No way! That's awesome. You're going to school here, right?" he asked.
"I believe so, starting senior year." I smiled.
"Ah, awesome. Do you remember anyone?" He asked as we sat down in the circle. I shook my head and I looked around the fire, there were 3 girls and the rest were guys.
"Okay, I'm starting from the right. That's Quil, Jared, Paul, Collin, Seth, Sam. The last three girls are Leah, she is Seth's sister. Emily who is Sam's fiance, and Sue, Seth and Leah's mom." He said as he looked around. His eyes stopped searching and he furrowed his brow.
"Where's..Embry?" he said trailing off, and he looked at Sam.
"He..uhm...I think you should go talk to him." Sam said as he looked at Jacob seriously. Jacob stood up and he went towards the trees, and I could see Embry standing there looking away. Immediately my attention was caught by Seth.
"So, turns out that we know you. Fay..right?" he asked.
"Yeah, Fay." I said, feeling a little uncomfortable around people I didn't know.
"Oh, I remember you! You used to live here, Jacob is right. You did change a lot. Hah, I remember now, you used to be like...chubby." said Quil, and a few of the guys laughed. I blushed, and I knew they could see it.
"Stop being an asshole, Quil." said the very pretty girl named Leah. I smiled at her, and she returned the smile. Quil scowled at her as she turned around ignoring him. I could feel Jacob walking back and he sat down next to me, stretching his legs out as far as he could without getting too close to the fire. Embry came around and sat across from me, he walked slowly, and it seemed like he was avoiding my gaze. He crossed his legs and brought them up to his chest like he was cold, and put his arms around his knees. His long hair fell over his face, and for some reason I wanted to see his eyes. I wanted to see the fire dancing in them. I smiled to myself, and he looked up at me for a second. I saw what I had wished for, I saw the fire relfecting against his beautiful eyes. He blinked and had a strained look on his face, turning his head away, I felt that I had done something wrong.
"Hey, is he okay?" I whispered to Jacob.
"Who? Embry?...W-w-why would you think that?" He said carefully.
"I don't know, he looks like he's sick or mad...at me?" I said, and I realised how stupid I must have sound to say that he could be mad at me, we had only just met.
"Oh, haha. He's not sick, and being mad at you...is the just about the opposite thing he's feeling right now." he said smiling nervously like he was afraid of saying too much. I eyed him, and turned back to look at the fire, feeling it's heat. I thought about what to do tomorrow, and that's when I heard My dad announcing to everyone.
"Everyone is invited to our house tomorrow night for our late homecoming party. I've heard the appitiete the boys have, and you guys don't worry. Fay can cook the most amazing food." he said proudly and the night sky was filled with laughter, whoops, and yells. I was in for a busy day tomorrow, hopefully nothing would go wrong...
Please, keep reviewing so I can know what to put in the story and get feedback!
