A/N:
I know I'm a horrible author right now... *hides* Don't hate me please.. I've just gained access to a computer on a regular basis... I'll be doing my best to update all (and I mean ALL) of my stories for quite a while... I'm so sorry!
Disclaimer: It ain't mine
Jacob's POV
"Are you sure you can't just tell her?" Sam asked me, looking down. "I know your ashamed of those things now, but I also know Scar well enough to know she won't drop it until you tell her."
"I kinda figured... I'm gonna try and get up the nerve to tell her tonight." I looked down.
"Good. But for now, you're late. Go patrol." Sam motioned toward the door. He wasn't gonna be out there today, because Emily wanted some alone time with him.
I rolled my eyes, but obeyed and headed outside, waiting for the cover of trees to drop my cutoffs and phase. I didn't bother tying the shorts to my ankle or anything, because I knew I'd end up coming back to Sam's before I changed back anyway.
Good to see ya! I heard Quil in my head and rolled my eyes. It was just him, Jared, and I out today.
Shut up, Quil. Have you two decided who gets to patrol where today? I knew the thought was mostly aimed at Jared.
Yeah, you'll be taking the west side mostly. Jared's gonna do east and I'll be taking up north... Brady, Collin, and Seth are at the beach so we shouldn't have to bother checking the south. Quil said, semi-mockingly.
And for that comment, I think you should take the south side too, Quil. You know the rules, patrol everywhere no matter what. Jared spoke up. I knew he didn't really care, but it was fun to torture Quil anyway. Quil groaned in defeat and began his run, just flashing images as he passed. I saw a glimpse of Scar's road and wanted to run toward her.
Jared began his run, though it didn't take him long to meet up with where Quil had started. He was only there for roughly a half hour before he dropped out to go find Kim. I wanted to growl.
So how'd Scar react last night? Quil asked me.
She thought it was a practical joke, but I fixed it. Everything's cool now. I brushed it off. He didn't need to know everything.
That's not what Makayla was telling Hayley and I this morning. Quil said. I couldn't stop the growl that erupted from my chest. Was Scar spilling everything to Makayla? I immediately veered off my path, knowing I'd already overlapped into the south border anyway. I headed straight back for Scar's house. I would ask what was going on.
Chill dude. I was only kidding. Nothing was said... Besides, you don't have pants. Quil spoke quickly, getting my attention. I grumbled, but realized he was right.
Skip ahead and take the south border now, Quil. I commanded before heading back to Sam's house. I didn't even stop to tie the shorts to my ankle, just grabbed them in my teeth and ran straight through to Scar's backyard. Ignoring any further comments from Quil, I phased and tugged the shorts on. I walked around to see her parents were both still gone.
Smirking, I opened the front door. I followed the most recent scent trail upstairs and smiled. She was humming along with some music and working to unpack boxes. I stepped forward and she froze before turning to face me.
"Hey," I scratched the back of my neck.
Scarlet's POV
"Hey." I smiled back at him. "I didn't think you'd come back so soon."
"I told you already, it hurts physically to stay away from you." He said, looking down slightly. He reached forward slightly, like he wanted to grab me, but pulled back his arm. "I thought you might wanna know. Yes, I've, uih... had sex with other girls before, but I'm imprinted now and I would never dream of betraying you."
I blushed at his words, but stepped forward, letting his arms wrap around my waist as he hugged me. "And so you know," his breathed fanned against the top of my head, "I've never felt this way about anybody... I can't feel this way about anybody else. When I see my future now, I can't see it without you."
"Oh..." I breathed roughly against his chest. He pulled me back before bending down to press his lips against mine.
"Do you believe me now?" He murmured into the kiss.
I smiled, "If I say maybe will you keep trying to convince me?"
A/N: yes I know, horrible place to end the chapter, but after being gone for so long, I'm still getting back into the swing of things. I got on here and saw a few comments on earlier chapters and I was all like 'aww, they do care.' So thank you for the supporting comments. They're the reason I got up the nerve to write this chapter... I'm sorry... I'll probably be looking into updating this chapter tomorrow and if not then I will sometime before wednesday, the 4th of July!
