Chapter 4--Important Phone Call

APOV TWO WEEKS LATER

I used to think the entire pack was one big, happy family. As of recently, I was proven wrong. Tony is a jerk. I don't like him at all-and neither does anybody else. He won't even look at anybody he hates us all so much-which completely pisses off Paul, not to mention Mrs. Walker. If anyone has a problem with that guy, it's her. She's big on respect and Tony doesn't respect anyone. Sure, he goes on patrol when he's assigned, and he'll come to bonfires when he has too but he won't talk to anyone. Ugh. I hate that guy.

Luckily, I had something to distract me from that ass-other than Paul. Work. Today was great. I met all the parents-I was a little nervous about that but all seemed really nice enough. And the kids are so cute. They hung on my every word and were just so excited about school in general. I'm glad I picked Kindergarten. (More of her with the Kindergarteners in the next chapter)

I just pulled up to the diner just as my cell phone started to ring…or at least I think it's my phone…

'Miss? Miss? You're getting a very important phone call from a sexy person. Miss?' I pulled my phone out of my pocket and flipped it open.

"Paul, did you change my ring tone again?!" I asked instantly.

I smiled as I heard his deep chuckle on the other end of the phone. "Maybe," he said easily. "It's fitting though, right?"

I rolled my eyes. "Definitely fitting," I agreed truthfully. I'm not going to lie. Paul is hot-in more ways than one.

"So, how did your first day go?" he asked, I could hear metal clanging together in the background and knew he was still at the shop.

"I'll tell you once you get to the diner," I said with a smile.

"But I still have five minutes!" he exclaimed helplessly.

"Your loss," I sang mockingly as I opened the door.

He huffed on the other end of his phone. "Fine, I'll wait. You better give me every single detail though," he said.

"You sound like Les when she's begging me to spill the beans of our honeymoon," I said with a laugh. She still won't drop.

"Well thanks for the compliment," he said sarcastically as I laughed at him. "Love you," he said.

I smiled. "I love you too, see you in a little bit," I said before hanging up. I already missed the sound of his voice…damn, why did I have to hang up?

"Alex!" Claire yelled from the counter.

I looked up and smiled as I walked over to her and Leah. "Hey guys," I greeted as I sat down.

"So how was the first day?" Leah asked with a smile. "Any cute guys?" she asked, wriggling her eyebrows.

I snorted. "Yeah, but he's at the car shop about two blocks away right now," I said as she stuck her tongue out at me.

"Hey, I'm asking for me. This has nothing to do with you and Paul," she said. "I'm the only single women around here-do you know how hard that is?" she asked overdramatically.

"I can't wait until you imprint Leah," I said with a smirk. "It's going to be so fun."

She looked at me doubtfully. "I don't think I can imprint Alex," she told me.

"I bet you can," I said confidently.

"I bet I can't," she said.

"Whatever," I sighed. I'm good at placing bets and I was really confident with this one.

"Look who it is," Claire muttered as the door opened. I turned around-hoping with everything I've got that it was Paul-but it wasn't. It was the exact opposite of Paul. Tony.

"Ugh, why is he even here? I thought he was avoiding us at all costs," I mumbled quietly. If he was going to be rude to me, I'm not going to go out of my way to be nice to him. So there.

"Just because he's here doesn't mean we have to talk to him," Claire said.

"One of you will," I said. "Someone's going to have to serve him.

"Not it!" Leah yelled at once, earning us a couple stares before she glared at them and they looked away.

"Damn you all," Claire muttered, grabbing her notepad and heading over to the booth that Tony sat in. Alone.

"So why did he even move here?" I asked Leah quietly.

"He came when he lost his job I guess," she told me. "He got laid off or something because the business or wherever he worked is in debt."

"That sucks," I said, glancing back at him as he talked to Claire-but he didn't look at her. He just stared straight ahead of him.

"What is his problem?" I asked. I'm seriously ticked off by this guy.

"I don't really know. He came here to start over-not to get dragged into a world of nonexistent creatures," she said. "I guess I can understand him there but he's such an ass," she mumbled. "He told me to fuck off the other day," she said casually.

I raised my eyebrow. "What did you do?" I asked, knowing full well Leah has a bit of a temper.

"I didn't have to do anything. Sam and Seth rammed him into a tree," she said smugly. "I just laughed," she said with a smirk. I rolled my eyes. Overprotective much?

"Well that was very considerate of them," I said as Claire stormed passed us. "Having fun with Tony?" I asked sarcastically.

"Oh yeah, that ass hole's just a pocket full of sunshine!" she said sarcastically. "He could at least look at me when I'm taking his fucking order," she muttered to herself.

I laughed and shook my head. "You need to have some patience," I said with a smirk.

She rolled her eyes at me as she made a coffee-presumably Tony's. "Says the kindergarten teacher," she said mockingly.

I rolled my eyes as I heard a vaguely familiar squeal behind me. "Mrs. Walker!" the little girl with pig tails shrieked, pulling out of her Mother's grasp and running towards me.

I laughed as she tackled my leg into a hug. "Hello Katie," I said with a smile as I patted her hair. She was definitely one of the more enthusiastic students I had gotten to know today.

"Mamma, come here," she whisper-yelled to the smiling woman who was watching us curiously. The woman grinned and walked over. "Mom, this is my teacher; Mrs. Walker," she said with a huge smile on her face.

Her mother laughed and shook my hand. "It's nice to meet you," she said brightly.

"You too, I can tell Katie and I are going to be great friends," I said, smiling down at the little girl who beamed back up at me.

"Are you eating here too?" Katie asked with wide eyes.

"Yes I am. Are you?" I asked, matching her tone.

She smiled and nodded. "We normally sit in a booth and I have to use a booster, but today Mamma said I don't have to!" she told me excitedly.

"Really?" I asked, laying it on thick for the girl. "That is so cool," I said. "What are you going to eat?"

"I'm going to have grilled cheese!" she told me, throwing her tiny hands up in the air.

"Oh my gosh, me too!" I told her. I really was. I loved that stuff.

"Really?" she asked, her eyes growing impossibly wider.

"Yep. Maybe if you're good I can ask my friend Claire to cut them into heart shapes for you," I said, glancing at Claire out of the corner or my eye who grinned back.

"Okay!" she said before grabbing her Mother's hand and dragging her to a booth. Her Mother mouthed a thank you to me and I smiled back.

You know that tingling feeling you get when it feels like someone's watching you? Yeah? Well, that's exactly what I was feeling before I looked up to see Paul leaning against the wall just inside the door, watching me with a smile on his face.

When our eyes met he immediately walked over and wrapped his arms around me. "Who was that?" he asked with a huge smile on his face.

"One of my students. Katie," I told him happily.

"I think she likes you," he said with a satisfied smile. I poked my tongue out at him. He knew I was scared that the kids wouldn't like me-and loved when he proved me wrong about these types of things.

"I hate that guy," Claire muttered as she walked passed us.

Paul looked at me with a raised eyebrow. "Tony," I said as I looked pointedly at the table where the solitary werewolf sat, staring into his coffee as if looking for all of life's answers.

He shook his head. "I don't know about that guy," he mumbled to himself.

I rolled my eyes. "Only because he almost phased in front of me," I said quietly.

Paul's eyes tightened as he looked back at Tony. "Twice," he corrected. "When he first met everybody and at the bonfire," he said. Okay, in all honesty, that first time wasn't even a big deal. His hands were shaking just the tiniest bit. The second time though-that kind of freaked me out. We were all just sitting around the fire when Quil threw in another log and a cinder caught on Tony's skin.

All he did was glare at it until it was gone. He then turned his gaze to Quil-probably the first time he's made eye contact with any of us-and his hands just began shaking so fast it was almost a blur. He stood up and started backing away from the fire but the farther back he got the faster he shook. Paul and Jared suddenly jumped up and tackled him away from the fire just as we heard a loud 'popping' noise that I now associated with phasing.

Claire told me that Quil was a little more…outspoken about how he disliked Tony's attitude and that's why we're guessing he reacted as strongly as he did. If that's not the reason…then that boy has some problems.

"Well, you aren't going to let anything happen so it's really all that big of a deal, is it?" I asked.

He looked back at me and grinned, his eyes sparkling. "Nothing bad will ever happen to you," he said confidently as I smiled up at him.

"Hate to ruin your little 'moment' here but I'm seriously going to be sick," Leah said from behind the counter.

Paul and I both rolled our eyes at her and ordered our food. Well, there's one good thing about the pack: I'll never be bored.

What do you guys think?? You got to learn a little more about Tony and all that jazz so…woot woot! REVIEW PLEASE!!
