Jasper led me out to his car, a hand on the small of my back. He had taken me to a nice dinner and we enjoyed ourselves. He of course didn't eat much, but I had eaten more than I could handle. The food was delicious!
He opened the passenger door for me and I thanked him as I got in. In a second he was in the car and starting it up. I looked out the window as he drove off, heading to my house.
I let a huff of breath escape my lips as I rubbed my face. Jacob was going to kill me. Jasper noticed my change in behavior and pulled out of the street, shutting the car off. He turned to face me, confusion in his eyes. I know he could feel my emotions right now.
"It's Jacob." I whispered, knowing exactly well that he heard me.
He placed his hand on my cheek, making me face him. He was looking at me intently, as if he was searching for something in my eyes, but he shook his head and slumped back.
"Jasper?" I asked hesitantly. "Hmm?"
"Will Jacob know what we did?" I was slightly embarrassed for asking him such a silly question, it was only a heated kiss; I didn't want him getting into trouble with my brother though.
"I bet so." I was about to apologize when suddenly he was kissing me again. I shut my eyes and leaned into the kiss, enjoying my moment with him. It didn't last for long because he pulled away, but I didn't necessarily mind. He had his reasons.
"Let's get you home before those wolves send out a search party." I laughed at that, glad that he had replaced 'mutts' with 'wolves'. That is what they are: wolves.
He held my hand the entire ride there. My arm had already healed, but it hurt now and then to move or touch it.
Jasper put the car to a stop and got out to open the door for me. He helped me out and closed the door behind us. We walked out until he could no longer cross and I spun around to face him.
"Thank you." I said softly. I heard the front door open, so Jacob must be watching us now.
"No problem." He smirked and pulled me into a deep hug. I immediately hugged back and smiled as I felt him inhale my scent.
I heard growling behind me and separated myself from him. Better not to push Jacob. I waved a small goodbye and turned on my heel, walking past my brother and into the house.
Minutes later I heard the door shut and I felt Jacob stomping over to where I was in the living room. I was removing my shoes and had set them aside when Jacob asked me the question he always asks. "What did he do to you?"
I ran my hand through my hair and said, "Nothing I didn't want."
That seemed to frustrate him. "Like what, Alex?"
I looked up at him and noticed he was shaking. "Jacob?" I asked wearily. I looked into his anger-filled eyes and I soon after I saw them change back to their normal friendly ones. I smiled, glad that he hadn't lost control. If he did that would have been all on me.
"I'm sorry, Alex." He said finally and walked up to his room. He wasn't going to be able to get much sleep tonight. The pack had done a lot more patrols lately and it frightened me.
When I asked why the patrols had increased they strictly told me not to worry about it. I shrugged it off the first time, because I may have intruded; by the third time I asked I knew for a fact that what ever it was, they didn't want me to somehow get involved.
I walked to my room and plopped myself on my soft bed. I didn't feel like changing out of my clothes, but I knew I had to. I got up and changed into a long sleeved top that exposed a bit of my stomach and into some boxer shorts.
I grabbed my duffel bag and poured its contents out of it. I folded and put my clean clothes back to where they belonged and threw the dirty ones into the hamper.
Everything else that had been in there: deodorant, make-up, toothbrush, combs, hair bands, I had decided to place on my bedside. I would put those back later. I was too tired to do anything now.
I crawled into bed and pulled the covers up to my nose, engulfing myself in the heat. The fall here could sometimes be difficult. After situating myself in bed I took notice that my window had been left slightly open.
After arguing with myself for what seemed like hours I got up off the bed and shut the window. From the corner of my eye I saw something move; I looked back to take a closer look, but nothing was there.
I shrugged my shoulders and got back into the warmth of my bed. I turned on my side, facing away from the window as I got a slight chill down my spine.
I pulled my covers closer as I tried convincing myself that nothing had been out there. There was nothing outside trying to creep a peek at you.
"Get a hold of yourself.." I whispered, closing my eyes tightly, as I fell into a deep slumber.
My mind must be playing tricks on me.
Little did I know how terribly wrong I was..
