So here is chapter 4! And I know is really short compared to my other chapters, but Paul is giving me some problems, and well I didn't want to make all of you wait for another month at this rate! So here's this, I hope you all like it!
And I just want to thank everyone who has faved and followed this story, last time I checked over 100 people had favorited Vervain, and I'm so happy!
Also on a side note I put up a collection of all my little ideas, and if you're interested please take a look! The first chapter (I think), has the possible timeline for Vervain and some background information, like family history.
There is also now a poll on my profile page, that if you guys would go and take a look at would be nice, the furthering of this fic might depend on it!
Chapter 4 – A Month
June 7, 2000
Quileute Reservation, La Push, Washington, USA
Over the past few weeks, Vervain had started to build connections between herself and the tribe. She started out by doing favors for her uncle, delivering tonics and the likes. Then to make her face more familiar, she started to volunteer at the tribal center, and that led her to visiting the elderly; doing chores for them like cleaning or cooking, which she found out she greatly enjoyed especially since she wasn't being ordered to do such things like she was in the past. Her days had fallen into a routine.
She would get up make breakfast for her and her uncle, then take whatever was left over next door for Joy and Quil. Then she would have lessons with Old Quil, where he was slowly but surely teaching her all he knew. These lessons why not filled with the extravagant magic of her youth, were still fascinating and had a magic all their own. Then lunch would come around, which she once more cooked, but sometimes Joy would join them and help out, or the two of them would be at the Clearwater's or Black's; where Vervain would sit in on the Elder's meetings, and learn their methods. After only a little while Billy and Sue were treating her like their own niece, which in Billy's case she kind of was. Vervain was becoming happy, she had a family growing and expanding all around her, and soon La Push would feel like home to her. Then Emily would call or Kim or Leah, and they would drag her out somewhere, show her the town the sights, and with them would come the boys, though Vervain's heart ached when Paul would leave upon her arrival, and refused to speak to her. He was breaking her heart when everyone else was fixing it.
When she wasn't doing any of those things, people could find her at Sue's dinner, or at the clinic. Though mostly when she was free she would be found sitting alone on the beach, rain or shine, just watching the waves. And this was where Paul would finally confront her.
Next time: Paul has to make a decision, before his wolf finally decides enough is enough.
