Chapter Twenty-Five
Nessie's POV
I walked in as Seth walked out. The atmosphere of the room was a little uncomfortable as I predicted, I mean what else should I expect; she just found out that her new friend was a vampire and that her boyfriend was a werewolf.
I looked up at Cristy and it was obvious that she was nervous but I had to calm her down and let her know; no matter how weird it might sound, that she was safer with this family of vampires and werewolves then without.
"Hey Cristy." My voice was soft, almost a whisper, but loud enough for her to hear it. Cristy lifted her head to face me with a small smile on her face.
"I know this is going to sound very….straight forward but I just want to know if I should be nervous, I mean I am nervous just because of everything, but I need to know if I have a reason to be."
"No, you have no reason to worry about anything. I swear to you, I know it sounds weird, but in this house with a bunch of vampire is probably the safest place to be." She laughed lightly and I slowly moved my way into the bed, sitting across from her.
"You know that I'm a pretty logical person and I figure that if you wanted to….kill me…. you would have done it by now or let me die in the woods."
"Exactly; so I expect that you probably have a lot of questions?"
"Most definitely, but I don't know where to begin."
"Well, I have an idea, how about I just tell you everything that's happened since my mom moved here?"
"Isn't that going to take a long time?"
"Well, I have a power. You see some vampires have powers like my dad can read minds, Uncle Jasper can control emotions, and Alice can see into the future. I can shoot off images from my brain to yours. So, it will kind of be like watching a movie."
"Are you serious? That's so cool! So your dad can really like read my mind, like right now, what I'm thinking he knows so if I said "Hey Edward" in my brain he would hear it and reply?" I nodded somewhat excited by her amusement.
"And if I was sad Jasper could make my happy?"
"Yeah."
"And like Alice can see into the future, like she knows what's going to happen to me tomorrow?"
"Well, with Alice all of her visions depend on people's decisions. So, for example, if you decide to go to the movies tomorrow then that's what she can see, but if you change your mind and decide to go to the mall then the vision will change; they aren't always perfect."
"I see. And your power, is that how you're going to show me everything?" I nodded.
"But, how are you going to show me events from when your mom moved to Forks, you weren't even born yet?"
"Well, I guess you can say that my power has kind of…upgraded. When I was born I could only show what I had witnessed, but now I can show what people tell me as long as I get a clear picture of it in my mind. My dad usually tells me if I perceived something correctly."
"Oh, I see, so how does this work?"
"I take your hands and you have to try your best to relax. There is going to be a lot of information coming your way and it's going to get very vivid it certain points but try to grasp it. If you have any questions just ask me at the end." She nodded.
"So, are you ready?"
"I think so." I slowly and gently look Cristy's hands, watching for her stitched up arm, into my own and began starting from the very beginning.
[ DEAR READERS I THOUGHT THAT IF I EXPLAINED EVERYTHING THEN THE CHAPTER WOULD BE LIKE WAAAAAY TOO LONG, SO FOR THIS PART JUST BASICALLY PICTURE ALL OF THE TWILIGHT SAGA =]
I had showed this story to myself over and over again that I didn't even have to close my eyes to concentrate, so I watched Cristy's face and all of her emotions. Tears feel down her cheeks basically the whole time and they were either tears of joy, or tears of plain misery. It took a bout an hour to give her all the information but it was worth it. When I finished I gently let go of her hands and she very slowly opened her eyes and began to blink furiously.
"Cristy are you okay?"
"Yeah, I'm… that was so amazing."
"So now you know everything!"
"Yeah but I have a few questions?"
"Okay shoot."
"Are Seth and Edward so close because Seth helped save Bella's life?"
"Yeah my dad feels that he owes Seth for all eternity because if my mom died then well yeah it wouldn't be the same; I wouldn't be here."
"Okay, umm why is Carsile a doctor, I mean how can he stand all the blood."
"He said that he feels in order to make up for what he is that he has to save lives. And the blood thing he said takes years of practice and training; Uncle Jasper is the newest "vegetarian" in our family so it takes him a lot more effort to control himself, but he has Aunt Alice, and the rest of the family to help him."
"Did your dad ever forgive Jasper for what happened to Bella?"
"Yeah, I think so I mean it's not like they don't talk they still get along."
"Why did Edward leave her completely unprotected, I mean didn't he know that Victoria, and Laurent knew where she was?"
"He thought that if he left then they would come after him and leave her alone."
"Oh, so that's why Edward can't hate Jacob because he basically saved Bella's life too."
"Yeah."
"Is it weird to knowing that Jacob use to like your mom?"
"At first it was but not anymore. I was mad at my mom for a whole month after I found that out, but since I understand everything now it's nothing. Anymore questions?"
"No, not right now, but I'm sure I will be asking you things randomly as they come. Oh wait one more just came." Cristy and I laughed lightly before she asked her next question.
"Okay this is the last one for the night. Can your whole family hear everything just like Seth can?"
"Everyone in my family can hear very well, and even better than Seth can, but I don't mean to undermine his ability; he can hear extremely well too."
"So they can hear everything I'm saying right now, even if I were to whisper they could hear me?"
"Yep!"
"Oh wow, that's ummm uncomfortable, so you have no privacy?"
"Well I do when my mom puts her shield up."
"Oh right your mom has the shield thing. That's a really cool power. So when you're around her she can shield you from letting anyone else hear?"
"Well I mean she can more so shield my thought from my dad." Cristy nodded and took a deep breath.
"Are you tired?"
"No, I think I slept enough. I'm just over whelmed with everything." It was silent for a while as Cristy really started to take everything in. I watched her carefully.
"I can't believe this is all actually happening." Her voice was a whisper and I smiled lightly at it.
"It really is, but hopefully over time you will be able to get used to it and relax a little more." Cristy laughed lightly.
"You can hear my heart beating too?" I nodded and it wasn't as fast as I thought it might be but it was fast enough.
"It's weird knowing that I'm going to get used to vampires and werewolves but I really want to; it's so fascinating." We looked at each other and laughed again before we just started talking about everything that wasn't really concerned with the whole vampires and werewolves thing; she needed a break from that. I don't know what time it was but Cristy fell asleep and I covered her with a blanket before I went back downstairs; I ran straight to Alice.
"Alice."
"Yes Nessie I did." Like usual Alice could see me saying something before I actually did.
"Okay, so what did you see?"
"Well, as of right now, Cristy is going to be attacked again but I don't know when, where, or by whom. I think it's because Seth is so involved with her. But it's weird because you and Jake are involved and when Jake isn't around you I can still see you clearly in my visions." Alice hates when her visions don't work right so I reassured her.
"Don't worry Alice, I'm sure that everything will clear up soon. Maybe this could be happening because of the vampires that are involved; maybe they have powers too?"
"Yeah you could be right. Well we're going to have a family meeting soon to discus this, we just have to wait for the pack; they should be here in two minutes." I was slowly but surely starting to realize how serious this situation was. Vampires were trying to kill Cristy, and Seth said that the vampire the pack had been chasing was there; there has to be a connection.
"Okay."
"But hey, on a lighter note, Peter and Charlotte, Jaspers friends, are going to be here on Friday; he's so excited but he tries to make it seem like nothing."
"You and Jasper are complete opposites, but that's why you guys work so well together!." Alice smiled and hugged me.
"Alright, come on; we're meeting the pack behind the river, everyone is there already." Alice and I quickly made our way behind the house, where the river was, and saw the family. My mom came right over to hug me; I hadn't really seen her all day and I missed her.
"How are you holding up with all this?"
"I'll be okay."
"I know you will; just know that you can always talk to me." I nodded.
"Do you know where daddy is?"
"He's in the cabin, he should be here any second." Sure enough five seconds later my dad was right next to my mom; his hand in hers.
"Did you need to talk to me?" I looked at him and nodded. It was obvious that he was surprised that I even wanted to say two words to him let alone a conversation; but, after the events of the last few hours, I had realized something important.
"I know I've been mad at you the past few days but I love you because you're my dad and I like you. I am still a little angry about the situation with Jake, but Cristy made me realize that you did it because you love me and you felt that something was taken from me. If you didn't react the way you did then I should have been worried. Plus, everything all that's happened with Cristy I've realized that anything could happen tomorrow and I don't want you to think I hate you if I did die or something." My dad's eyes were piercing into mine and he smiled lightly before I was pulled into a tight hug.
"I love you so much Rennesme, and I'm sorry I hurt you but I'm happy that you understand." He kissed me lightly on my forehead and then pushed me and my mom behind him lightly when he saw the wolf pack appear from the woods. Even though they've all know each other for a good five years neither one trusted the other; only thing that they had for each other was respect.
"I appreciate you being able to meet with us on such short notice." Carlisle started the conversation immediately; wasting no time.
I saw Jake right next to Sam and I didn't know how to react to him with my dad here so I didn't, I just watched him intently.
"Sam said no problem." As always my dad translated since the pack was in wolf form.
"Good. Well if you don't know, Christine Dylon was attacked by two vampires tonight and from what I've heard; one of the vampires has the same scent as the vampire that you guys were chasing."
"Sam said that himself and Jake have assigned patrols for the pack and that Seth has agreed to watch over Christine."
"And we will assist with the patrol in respect to the treaty. We need to catch these two vampires before they do anymore harm."
"Sam agrees and wants to know if you know why the vampires attacked Christine?"
"We aren't sure why; anyone would come up with an idea or opinion of why but we won't know until we find and get rid of them."
"Sam agrees and is telling me the times that they are patrolling. I can tell everyone later and we can decide who will go with them."
"Of course. So is there anything else?"
"Embry is curious of why Alice wasn't able to see it coming." I froze slightly. Alice did see, we just never told them; this wouldn't turn out well; Carsile wouldn't lie."
"Alice did see this happen but it wasn't clear enough." The majority of the wolves growled and Sam immediately shut them up; Jake looked over at Seth in attempt to calm him as well.
"The only thin that Alice saw was Christine being attacked but the vision hinted to no time or date, it only showed her face."
"They all feel that they should've known."
"Their right; we should've told them. Though we've made the wrong choice this time we will not do it again; we can promise you that."
"Fair enough." Carsile nodded and Sam's pack started to leave but Jake's pack, meaning Jake and Seth, stayed. I was still watching him, daring him and hoping that he would come over to me but he didn't he was just waiting for Seth who was talking to my dad.
"She's sleeping right now Seth and it's really late; maybe you could pick her up from school tomorrow."
"Okay then, I'm sure she'll be happy to see you….." What was Jake doing? Why wouldn't he come talk to me?
"Nessie?"
"Huh?" I was focusing on Jake who obviously wasn't going to do anything and I wouldn't lie, it hurt.
"Seth is going to pick Cristy up from school tomorrow but he wants it to be a surprise."
"I won't tell. Well I'm tired dad I'm going to go to bed.
"Okay sweetie I'll see you in the morning."
"Goodnight everyone; goodnight Jake." I looked right into his eyes and he didn't even budge; my heart broke as I stared at him and walked away.
Cristy's POV
I woke up in pain and in a daze. I had a horrible headache and my shoulder was burning.
"Cristy?" I jumped lightly as I heard a deep voice and a knock at the door.
"Cristy it's Carlisle, may I come in?"
"Yeah." Carlisle walked with the same attire as he had on last night; his white medical coat and black slacks.
"Good morning Carlisle."
"Good morning Cristy, how do you feel?"
"Umm, I have a head ache and my shoulder is bothering me."
"Well let's check that out." I took my sweater off and Carlisle took the bandage off my arm.
"The speed at which your arm is healing is quite fascinating. It may heal even faster then I originally predicted."
"Really?" He nodded.
"Just keep wrapping it and applying the ointment; you'll be fine."
"Carsile?"
"Yes?"
"What do I tell my parents? I know they're going to know something has changed; especially my mom." Carsile sighed.
"Well your parents think that you slept over here last night; so if anything they might be mad that you broke the rule of slumber parties during the week. Maybe they'll be too mad too notice anything."
"No, my parents will get over that quick; they'll be too happy that I've made a friend of Nessie so quickly; the really like her."
"Hmm, well then don't bring it up unless they do. If they asked what happen tell them; after you're tutoring session ended Nessie picked you up and you lost track of time."
"Okay, thank you Carsile."
"And the arm; just try your best to wear long sleeves until it's completely healed because the majority of the bruises on your face and arms have faded out." I looked down to inspect myself and Carsile was right, the bruises were very faint.
"You've been very brave through all of this Cristy." I smiled lightly at him.
"But I must apologize because Alice will be here any second so you can get ready for school." I laughed lightly.
"I'm curious to see how bad Alice really is in the morning." Right then Alice walked through the door with a sarcastic smile taking over her features.
"You're lucky you're on medication Cristy or I would have taken that personally." I jumped at her sudden appearance. Nessie told me that vampires were quick and that they could hear exceptionally well; I guess I would just get use to it.
"Okay Carsile I need you to leave so we can get this girl ready." Carsile smiled lightly at his daughter.
"Cristy if you need anything just call. Esme said that she would have two aspirins for you to take when you come down for breakfast."
"Thank you Carsile; for everything." He nodded and then left.
"So Cristy how do you feel?"
"Well, I have a headache so can we try not to move too fast this morning?" She smiled sympathetically.
"Sure, but we start with a shower; I've already started it for you and everything you need is in the bathroom; you have 30 minutes before Esme will be ready for you to eat breakfast." Alice helped me get up and make my way into the bathroom; just because the scars and bruises were healing it didn't mean that my body wasn't extremely soar.
I wrapped my shoulder with this plastic that Alice gave me to it wouldn't get wet and then got in the shower. The immediately fell in love with the heat, it was soothing and relaxing on my body. I used the shampoo and conditioner to wash my hair taking my sweet time before I shaved and scrubbed down my body of all the dirt, sweat and dried blood. I dried my body and then put lotion on; thank God Alice had Aveeno; that was the only lotion tat actually worked on my body. I put the lotion on and then brushed my teeth before towel drying my hair and then I straightened my bangs. Then there was a knock at the door; I jumped and asked who it was.
"It's me Alice, can you open the door I have your clothes." I don't know why I felt surprised when Alice gave me two beautifully wrapped boxes and told me that I had 5 minutes before I had to be downstairs. They were so elegantly wrapped that I didn't even want to open them, but I had to; I didn't want Alice mad at me so early in the day.
I unwrapped the first box to find a pair of jeans and a long sleeved light blue top with a light brown vest. I quickly put it on before I opened the next box. That box contained a pair of brown studded boots with matching jewelry, a matching bag and a dark brown leather jacket. I put everything on except the jacket and went back into the medical room to get my book bag. I transferred everything into the new bad and went downstairs.

"Good morning dear." I jumped lightly again feeling very out of myself."
"Cristy sweetie, you don't look so well come on and sit down." I listened to her as she guided me to the chair in the kitchen.
"Here, take this tea, it's peach flavored; Nessie told me that it's your favorite. Oh and take these aspirins too; they'll help with the headache."
"Thank you Esme."
"No problem dear, just relax." I smiled at her before I took the pills and started sipping at my tea.
"Are you hungry?" I wasn't really hungry but I could smell the food that she had made and I wouldn't say no. She probably didn't cook a lot, I mean she had no reason to; everyone lived off of animal blood.
"Yes."
"Great, because I made some French toast."
"I love French toast, do you have syrup?"
"Of course."
"Well then I'm ready to eat." Esme smiled as she put four pieces of French toast on a plated with some syrup.
"Thank you, I really appreciate." She nodded and then left the kitchen. I was full at three slices and then finished my tea.
"Here, take this water bottle to school with you. The cold temperature should help keep you awake." I jerked again; I could never hear when someone was approaching.
"Oh, thanks Nessie."
"No problem, so how are you feeling this morning?"
"Well, I could be better but considering everything it's pretty good."
"Do you need anything?" I shook my head. Nessie and her family had done so much for me already.
"I'm just going to call my mom before we leave for school; I know she's probably worried." I dialed her number the first time and she didn't answer, which shocked me so I called again and again. Finally on the forth call she picked up.
"Hello!" She sounded out of breath and slightly annoyed.
"Hey, mom it's me Cristy."
"Oh hey Cristy hold on." She was still breathing hard and I swear I could hear both my parents laughing in the back round. What the hell were they…Ooohhhh.
"Oh my gosh! Mom, eww. I just called to tell you that I was sorry about sleeping over on a school night and that I would see you when I got home." I could hear my dad's laughter again.
"Okay sweetie, don't worry about it we'll talk when you get home from school."
"Okay bye." I hung up not waiting for a response. I couldn't believe that they were like…doing it. Shivers ran down my back and I quickly tried to dismiss the mental pictures that were making their way into my head. I looked over at Nessie to see her smiling lightly.
"It's not funny; it's actually really gross." She started laughing.
"It's actually a good thing; it means that they are still attracted to each other."
"Well they can be attracted to each other on their own time." She just laughed harder.
"Okay let's talk about something else."
"Good idea; I'm going to go brush my teeth and then we can go to school."
"Okay I'll be waiting for you in my car." I went upstairs slowly to avoid from getting dizzy and then went into the bathroom to brush my teeth again. I quickly went over my bang with the flat iron ten went back downstairs. My heart immediately increased when I saw Seth at the bottom of the stair way smiling up at me lightly.
Seth's POV
I watched as my stunning imprint made her way down the steps. I studied her intently; the bruises on her face were barely noticeable but I could tell from the slow pace that she was walking at the she was still in pain. It hurt my heart knowing that I could do nothing to help. The closer she got to me the faster her heart raced; I stood when she was at the last step. I put my hand gently on her face and kissed her forehead.
"How are you feeling this morning?" Her greenish grey eyes started deeply into mine.
"I'm okay, you?"
"You're in pain; did you take any medicine?"
"How do you kno-"
"You're my imprint Cristy, I can feel what you feel."
"I'm sorry,"
"It's not your fault." We started at each other wanting to say so much but not knowing if it was a good time to bring it up; I didn't take that chance.
"I couldn't wait to see you, so I decided that I would take you to school this morning." She smiled up at me and the pain going through me suddenly didn't feel so bad.
"What about Nessie?"
"Jake took her."
"Jake! He's talking to her now!"
"Yeah."
"Did I ever tell you about the wolf telepathy?"
"Umm, I'm not sure; my memory is kind of faint."
"Well in the pack we can hear each others thoughts and Jake's thoughts for the past few days have been completely miserable. He wasn't talking to Nessie because he thought it would only make Edward angrier. But last night during our meeting it was worse then ever before. Nessie had been staring at Jake the whole time and he was doing pretty damn good at ignoring her but when the meeting ended and she said goodbye it tore him to shreds. He couldn't take it anymore so he thought it would be a good idea if he took her to school today."
"What did Edward say?"
"He wasn't too happy when he say Jake pull up in front of his house; but he knew how much Nessie was hurting so he let Jake take her up school; but that's all he's letting Jake do; pick her up and take her home. You know he lives here with them normally; so now he's either at my house of his own."
"Wow, that's crazy. But wait why does he live with the Cullens?" We were now walking out of the door; I didn't want her to be late and get crap from her teacher.
"Nessie's his imprint; they need to be together as much as possible. Which means that when the Cullens move, which will be with in the next year or so, Jake will be going with them."
"So if I were to move, would you move with me?" I looked at her knowing the answer; I think she knew the answer too.
"No, I highly doubt your parents or my parents would like that."
"So then what would happen with the imprinting thing?" She stared at me as I took off onto the highway.
"I don't know."
"Would it ware off?"
"No, Cristy why are you asking theses questions, are you moving?" I was getting nervous; was she trying to drop hints?
"No, I was just curious; sorry." I sighed and took her hand into mine.
"Don't be."
"Okay so what are we doing after school?" I smiled at her.
"Nothing; you're going home to rest and I'm going to be there to make sure you do just that." She looked amused.
"That doesn't sound fun. I know what we should do."
"What?" She was so beautiful, especially when she's excited.
"Well, I think it would be cool if I could see you in wolf form." I looked over at her and I could feel myself tense up.
"Cristy of all things we could do you want to do that."
"Yes I want to see you as a wolf I got to see you once and I passed out right after." I pulled but half a block from the school so she wouldn't feel so awkward with all the attention like last time. She got out and I did the same; walking toward her side. She was leaning against the car grinning at me and my heart race increased significantly.
Right then she leaned up placing her hand around my neck for support. I wrapped my arms around her waist and then she leaned into kiss me. My overheated body felt cool as her sweet lips and tongue moved with mine. I grabbed her hips and lifted her gently on the hood of the car so she wouldn't have to lean on her toes. I deepened the kiss as I realized how mush I missed her; it felt like I hadn't seen her in weeks when it was only two days. Some idiot driving a car honked the horn and Cristy pulled away turning her head and smiling uncomfortably. As soon as she turned back I gently pressed my lips against hers and she started laughing. I smiled lightly at her laugh and then sighed pulling away.
"I can't get enough of you Cristy." She started blushing as I kissed her cheeks and rubbed the sides of her stomach.
"Come on Seth I have to go to school now; Mrs. Softmere will kill me if I'm late." Her voice was weak and not very convincing, but I knew she was right so I pulled away."
"Call me if you need anything okay?" She nodded as she opened the car door and took her book bag out.
"If you need anything." I lifted her chin up so she was looking my in the eyes.
"Okay Seth, if I need anything I promise that I will call you. I love you."
"I love you too, I'll see you later." I embraced her in a hug and then she started walking up the block. I got in the car and pulled off; I didn't want to be late either.
I got to school on time literally with about thirty seconds to spare. All of my teachers were in a relatively good mood today considering that tomorrow was Friday; I know they hated us but it was okay because we hated them too. Right around 12:30 I caught up with Jake during lunch and he was actually smiling; he hadn't smiled in days.
"So, how did it go with Nessie?"
"She was mad at me but she understood why I acted the way I did."
"What happened?"
"Well she wouldn't talk to me for the first five minutes we were in the car but by time we pulled up to her school she was okay. I was scared that she wouldn't talk to me ever again."
"You had to know that wasn't going to actually happen; I mean she's your imprint."
"Yeah, we all tell each other the same thing but none of us ever believe it when we're put in the situation."
"Yeah, I'm just glad that you guys are good again; now we don't all have to listen to your depressed thoughts."
"Me too, so what about Cristy, how is she feeling?"
"She's still really soar but she had to go to school because she's missed a lot of days and she obviously can't tell her parents what's going on."
"Is there anything broken?"
"No she has stitches on her shoulder but Carsile said it's healing a lot quicker than most humans. He said that she should be perfectly fine by Saturday."
"That's great Seth and what about the date, are you still going to take her out?"
"Only if Carsile says that she's well enough to do so."
"Well let her know that we are all doing everything in our power to keep her and her family safe; we have to get rid of all these damn vampires." Jake's voice went from light to serious.
"Yeah, but I don't think that she knows that her parents could be in danger, do you think I should tell her?"
"Always tell them the truth because if you don't it will come back to smack you in the heart later not the head and believe me it will hurt."
"I believe. Well I'm past hungry so I'll see you later."
"Okay Seth." I went on the lunch line brought a crap load of food and then shoved it down my throat before I ran to my next class.
Cristy's POV
By time I got home I was extremely tired and my body was past soar. I had to act like nothing was wrong when my mom squeezed me a bit too tightly, but Seth could see right through my fake smiles. He dropped his bag to draw my mom's attention to him and she let go of me.
"Seth, are you okay, what was that?"
"Oh, sorry I dropped my bag." She looked at Seth smiling and then kissed my cheek.
"Okay mom I'll be upstairs."
"Can I talk to you for a minute?" Cristy nodded and Set excused himself but I knew he was listening to everything.
"Cristy I just wanted to apologize for not being there for you last night." I suddenly felt dizzy as I realized that all of this stuff happened just a few hours ago.
"Umm, mom, don't worry about it, Nessie would have dropped me home but I didn't have my key and I had some stuff at her house and then I fell asleep."
"Okay just know that next time I will answer." I nodded.
"So, is Seth staying for dinner?"
"I'm not sure I'll go ask him."
"It's okay he probably will." I nodded and went upstairs
I get to my door and see my covers pulled back and Seth with bottled water and two aleves on the table. I closed the door and smiled at him.
"Come on, I know you're tired." I took the two aleves and laid down.
"Oh wait, we have to change the bandage on your stitches." I sat back up.
"Umm, I'm not wearing a tank top under this is it okay or do you want me to go-"
"Whatever you're most comfortable." I slowly started taking off my shirt, but I was having trouble because my body was killing me.
"Cristy, let me help you." He took the rim of my shirt and helped me maneuver my arms through the sleeves. Shivers ran through me as his hot hands brushed against my skin. I tried to avoid making eye contact but once our eyes met my body let a rush of passion. This wasn't a good idea. He froze and then looked down as we got my stitched shoulder. I flinched in pain.
"Cristy are you okay?" I nodded as my shoulder burned.
"The shirt is almost off." I nodded; my arm was in too much pain to talk. He looked at me and gently rubbed my cheek.
"Is this shirt important to you?" I looked at him confused and shook my head. HE got up grabbed a scissor and then cut the back of the shirt; it came off with no problem.
"How does your shoulder feel?" Seth was talking but his eyes weren't on my face, they were on my bra.
"Seth." I slapped him on his arm and he quickly jerked his head up.
"Oh," he coughed uncomfortably, "I'm sorry."
"Do you want me to put on a short sleeved top?"
"No!," he cleared his throat, "I mean umm whatever makes you comfortable." I laughed lightly; I never realized how strong of an effect I had on him.
"Seth?" He was still staring. I got up, going to get a t-shirt but Seth gently grabbed my arm.
"Where are you going?"
"Seth I need a top because you look like you're in another world." He got up still holding my arm and a small smile started taking over his adorable face.
"You're so beautiful, you know that right?" His arms wrapped around my waist.
"What are you trying to do Seth?" He laughed.
"Why do you think that I'm trying to do something?"
"So you're not trying to do anything?" Right then he caught my lips in a smile and kissed me like he did this morning, but somehow better. He pulled my body gently up against his and I felt his hands grip my rear. I moaned in pleasure and Seth deepened the kiss. I pulled away breathing hard but Seth continued to kiss my neck.
"Seth." He didn't stop.
"Seth come on I have to do my bandage." He groaned but placed hid lips back on my own quickly before pulling away.
"I love you so much." He rested his head in the crook of my shoulder and I laughed.
"I love you too." He lifted his head and stood up straight.
"Okay you need to go put a shirt on before I completely lose control." I nodded smiling and walked into my closet putting on a t-shirt. When I came back he had the first aid kit on my bed and was taking out the ointment.
"Come on, sit down." He gently took the gauze off my shoulder and applied more ointment. He put a new gauze over it and then handed my sweat shirt to put on.
"Here, take the pain killers and then lay down." He handed me the aleves and the water so I could take them.
"Seth, could you lay with me?"
"You know I would LOVE to but-"
"But what?"
"But you smell so good and your eyes are enticing and I have no control. I should really go home."
"No, no, okay you don't have to lay down with me. So then what are you going to do?"
"Homework."
"Oh right, well can you wake me up by five so I can do my homework too?"
"Of course." I watched Seth as he grabbed his book bag and sat at the edge of my bed. I pulled the covers over myself and then slowly drifted into sleep.
? POV
"We took too long; she should have been dead." All this careful planning and these preparations, I can't believe that stupid little girl screwed it up.
"Well then what are we going to do? From what you've said they aren't going to give us a free chance again, they're going to be watching over her like crazy."
"I have another plan but it's risky."
"What plan?"
"Well, they sure as hell don't suspect you at all; they're most definitely not going to think twice to look for you after you take her."
"Take her; what are you talking about?"
"Go get the child and I'll explain everything."
Chapter 26
Seth's POV
"Seth? Seth where are you?"
"Cristy I'm right here." I know it's dark but she has to hear my voice.
"Seth I need you!" Why can't she hear me?
"Cristy!" I scream her name completely terrified.
"If you can't protect me then you are no use."
"Cristy I'm right here, I'm protecting you right now." What's happening!
"No Seth it's too late, I can't love you anymore."
"Wait Cristy! I'm sorry! Please give me another chance?" I fall on my knees and pull her hands into my own; she quickly jerks them out
"NO! I hate you! You left me unprotected and I need someone who will keep me safe; that person isn't you."
"Cristy I love you." The tears are running down my face as my heart is ripped out of my chest
"Go to hell Seth."
M eyes pop open and I jolt out of sleep; sweat dripping down my face. My body is shaking as I sit up and lean my back against the bed frame. I start to breathe in slowly trying to relax but it doesn't work. I grab my phone and call Cristy.
The phone rang a few times before she answered.
"Hello?" She sounded like she was awake and I was thankful for that.
"Hey Cristy, are you busy?"
"No, are you okay?"
"Yeah."
"Seth, don't lie to me."
"Cris I'm not." I lightened my tone in attempt to sound believable.
"Seth, it's Friday night and it's 1 am, this is the day you get to sleep and don't have to watch over me. So if you're calling then there must be something wrong."
"Cristy, I love being around you and I don't consider it watching over you. You're my girl friend and I like to spend time with you." I hear her sigh and I begin to feel nervous.
"Seth, I need you to get some rest okay? I know you stayed outside all last night after you left my house and besides that you said that you have patrols to do with your pack so you never get any rest." She was right, I never really slept, but ever since Wednesday I've been having that same dream. That Cristy was going to get rid of me and push me away because I wasn't there. The damn dream wakes me up at random hours in the night sweating and sometimes crying.
"Seth, you there?"
"Oh, yeah sorry."
"Seth you're scaring me, what's going on?"
"I can't just call my girlfriend because I miss her?" I tried to keep a light tone but Cristy could tell that it wasn't true.
"Yes you can," she sighs again," Seth, come on, just talk to me; I want to help." I stare into the phone.
"I'll call you right back."
"Seth wa-" I hang up hating the fact that I just cut her off but I knew I had to see her. If I told her she would have objected.
I went into the back yard and shifted before I made my way over to Cristy's house.
Jake you and Embry can go home I got her tonight.
I was close enough to use the wolf telepathy so that Jake could hear me.
No, Cristy is right, you need some rest Seth.
No Jake please I just need to talk to her come on. After a long pause and a sigh Jake responded.
Fine, but we're not leaving until you are here. When I got there Jake and Embry were turning to face me.
Thanks guys
They nodded and left. As I shifted back into human form and quickly put my clothes on my phone started to ring; it was Cristy followed by her three missed calls. I put my phone in my pocket and then started to climb up towards her window. I didn't want to frighten her so I gently tapped on the window and she turned around. A smile immediately took over my face as my angel walked towards the window to open it.
"Seth?"
"Hey baby, move back, I don't want to hit you." She quickly moved back and I jumped in. When I was fully in I pulled her into a light hug.
"I missed you." She didn't respond but just continued to hug me a little tighter. After a few more seconds she pulled away and took my hand to sit with her on the bed. She looked at me expectantly so I assumed she wanted an explanation.
"I wanted to see you."
"Seth it's one in the morning. I love the fact that you came over, but you need to sleep." She placed her soft hand on my cheek.
"I don't care about the time. You sounded awake so I came over." She laughed lightly at me and her faint smile grew.
"Well then you have to tell me what's wrong. I could hear the freight and despair in your voice."
"There's nothing wrong and your simple presence has already made my day." She leaned on both her knees and then placed her hand on my cheek before she lightly kissed my lips. My hands automatically wrapped around her waist and pulled her closer. She pulled away so that our foreheads were leaning against one another's. Her eyes were so close and I could see both worry and love in them. If I told her about my dreams she would just tell me that it wasn't my fault and that I didn't have control. Then she would tell me to look at the positive; that she's alright. But it was so much more to it then that.
"Seth, tell me." Her warm sweet breath on my face put me in frenzy and I had to take a few breathes before I answered.
"I should have been there for you on Wednesday Cris-" she cut me off and said exactly what I knew she would say.
"Seth, you had no control; Jake said to stay you had to stay. I mean for God's sake you were chasing a vampire trying to save peoples life's, including my own. Do you know how many people you probably protected that night?"
"Yeah but Cristy I couldn't protect you; you're my ONLY priority. If I can't keep you safe then I have no purpose."
"Don't start with that Seth. I just got here this year and I'm sure you had other priorities before me and you most definitely have purpose that's beyond me."
"No," I pulled her closer to me," Cristy you're my imprint. The word means so much more than love. You are my heart, my soul. I literally cannot live without you." She was looking deep into my eyes but I could tell that she was thinking too. She moved her hands towards my ears and caressed them gently.
"What are you thinking about Cris?" She looked at me but I couldn't tell what expression was spread across her face.
"Nothing," she paused," I just love you so much Seth and I don't want you to feel guilty, especially since I'm all healed." I smiled lightly at her.
"You may look fine but I know that your body is still soar." She smiled.
"You're lucky Carsile told you to give me a few extra days to heal or else I'd be harassing you about the date that we're supposed to go on."
"Believe me I didn't forget. As soon as Carsile gives you the clear is when I take you out on a real date." She was smiling brightly at me and my heart started to beat faster.
"So where are we going again?"
"Cristy, I never told you."
"Yeah you did." I smiled amused.
"No, but you told me something that I re-" Damnit Seth! Of all the things that I could possibly want to talk about I had the nerve to try and bring this up. She told me that she'd be ready Saturday but I also told her no pressure. Simply bringing up the topic is pressure. Plus I wouldn't want her having sex with me when her body is still sore and I know her arm isn't fully healed either.
"What, what did I say?" She looked at me but I didn't answer her. But it didn't matter because by the look on her face about 10 seconds later let me know that she figured it out.
"Oh." She started blushing and pushed her face into the crook of my neck. She was so cute. I kissed her hair and gently rested my forehead on it.
"Like I said, there's no pressure."
"Seth I want to but like…..Ugh." Her voice was muffled but I could hear her.
"But what?" She sighed.
"I don't know what I would be doing; I've never had sex before, I'm a virgin."
"You make it sound like it's a bad thing. You know how attractive that makes you Cristy?" I lifted her chin up so she could see how serious I was.
"What are you talking about Seth?"
"Cristy there are so many girls who aren't virgins and haven't been for a while. I don't know why but it makes me feel like I have the chance to be your first and then hopefully your last. Plus just the thought of some other man sticking his…." Cristy laughed as she saw the anger grow in my features.
"I get it Seth, it's just that other girls are experienced and know what they're doing and most guys want that."
"Yeah but I'm not most guys that are going to try and hook up with you for a night and then leave. I'm Seth and you're my imprint, I plan to be with you until you're tired of me."
"Seth no worries you will be my first and my last. It would be weird to do it with anyone else."
"Good." I knew she probably meant it when she said it but anything could happened, I didn't disserve her anyways, I was simply lucky that she even wanted to spend time with me.
"So let's clear out all your insecurities." I was semi-serious but she just laughed.
"No, that's weird. Why don't you tell me one of your insecurities?"
"No, we're talking about you." Cristy laughed harder and pulled away from me.
"You're a funny boy Seth." She got up and I quickly followed her.
"Why am I so funny?" I loved when she started this, whatever it was we'd just toy with each other.
"You're always funny Seth, that's one of the reasons I love you." She walked into her closet and I was still following her but she put her hand on my chest and stopped me.
"What?"
"I'm putting my pajamas on."
"So."
"Stop being stupid." She was laughing again.
"Am I sensing another insecurity?"
"No." She had a small pout on her mouth and had crossed her arms. So adorable.
"Your body is beautiful and I love it, so you should be comfortable around me."
"You know my daddy warned me about boys like you Seth." I smiled amused by her response.
"About wolf boys who are crazy in love with their imprints and want to gaze at their amazing bodies?"
"Yep!" She was trying to hide her smile but doing a horrible job at it.
"Oh, and what did he say?"
"Put your pajamas on in your closet with the door closed." Right then she closed the door and I started laughing. I could hear her laughing lightly too.
"What else did your dad say about boys like me?"
"He said that they are dangerous and very flirtatious and that I should watch out because they can get me in trouble."
"Oh really."
"Yeah and he also said that they surprise you all the time." Right then I opened the door to see Cristy just in her bra and underwear and she stood there shocked. I raked her body up and down.
"So they surprise you all the time?" She nodded and I walked closer to her wrapping my hands around her waste.
"Does your dad say anything else about us?" She just looked at me, completely shocked that I actually came in.
"What?" I swear her whole body was blushing and her heart beat was off the charts.
"What else does your dad say about boys like me?"She shook her head still staring at me. Right then I leaned in and put my lips on hers. She took a few seconds before she wrapped her hands around me and fully put herself into our kiss. She opened her mouth for entry and our tongues moved with endurance and passion as I very gently pushed her back against the wall. She moaned lightly and I could feel the heat grow between us. In reaction I placed my hands on her butt and gripped her. I could feel her legs jerk and I squeezed again. She moaned louder and I kissed her harder. I moved my mouth down to her neck as Cristy caught her breathe and moaned lightly. I could feel Cristy grab the rim of my shirt and begin to tug it off. I quickly pulled away from her neck and ripped the shirt off. The feeling of her cool, smooth skin against my hot skin filled me with an insane sensation. But that's when I saw her scar on her arm; I knew I had to stop before I hurt her-again. I picked her up and she wrapped her legs around me tightly before she placed her full lips on my ear.
"Seth?" She was out of breath but it simply added to the heat of everything.
"Yeah baby?"
"I want you so badly." An intense shiver went down my back as her tongue made her way around my ear.
"Damnit." My mind and my body didn't want to stop but my conscience knew that I had to. She may have mentally been ready but her body was still very sore.
"Cristy?" I gently drew away from her mouth and she immediately looked at me confused.
"Did I do something wrong?"
"No! No not at all."
"So, why did you pull away from me?" The look on her face and the vulnerability shown on her features made me feel like a jerk.
"No Cristy, it's just that if I don't stop now then I'm not going to be able to stop at all. You're body is still in pain and I don't want to make it worse." She stared at me for a few seconds before she put her lips right back on my own. I feel into it with no restraint; when I came to Cristy I was basically powerless.
"Cristy."
"Hmm?"
"We need to stop." Everything sounded stressed because we were both breathing hard. Suddenly she stopped, took her lips off mine gently, unwrapped her legs from my waist, and starred at me.
"You're probably right." I looked at her not knowing if I was happy that she did what I said, or mad. Her half naked body continued to stimulate a rise through out me.
Intensely I watched her as she put on her baggy shirt and shorts.
"Come on Seth let's go back into my room." She took my hand into her own and we left the closet and sat on the bed. I starred at her in wonder and desire; I was still in a daze.
"Seth, hello?" I cleared my throat and looked away uncomfortably.
"Yeah?"
"You haven't said anything for like five minutes and you're staring at me with this look on your face."
"Oh, sorry I just," I sighed trying to think of a way to put this without making her feel awkward, "Cristy, just because I knew we should stop it doesn't mean that I wanted to. All I can see right now is your perfectly shaped body and all of the amazing features under these clothes. She stared blushing again and I smiled genuinely at her.
"Well if it makes you feel any better, I was thinking the same thing."
"That doesn't help…..at all. " Cristy laughed lightly and lay down on her bed, tugging me with her. She moved into my chest and I engulf her in my arms making sure that she felt protected.
"Seth, can I tell you something?"
"You can tell me anything baby." Right then I felt her heart rate increase against my chest as she whispered into my ear.
"My dad was talking about us moving if he gets the next promotion." I felt my heart drop all the way down to my stomach. Just the thought of not having her within my grasp was already killing me.
"What? Didn't he just get a promotion that brought him to Forks?" I turned my body so that I could see her face.
"Listen Seth. He said that she soonest we would move wouldn't be until I graduate."
"So next summer Cristy? That's not a long time."
"I know." She looked down trying to hide the tears forming in her beautiful eyes. I gently lifted her head and kissed the tears away.
"Cristy, he might not even get the promotion."
"He always gets the promotion."
"So what? Let's say that he get the promotion. It will be summer time and I'm sure that your parents will let you stay with the Cullens a few weeks during the summer and then at the end of August we'll be going to college. We can go to the same one or at least one close to each other." She looked up at me with a glint of hope in her eyes, but she didn't say anything.
"See, problem solved."
"What college did you want to go to?"
"I don't know the exact college but it has to have sports and it has to offer psychology as a major." "You're into psychology?" "Yeah, I like helping people and solving problems." "Well you're really good at it Seth, it makes sense." "What about you?" "I just want to go to college to play my ce-" I jumped up after a strong scent filled my nose. "Seth, what happened?" "Shh Cristy hold on." I moved closer to the window and the scent only got stronger; it was the stench Wednesday; the same vampire. "Cristy, call Nessie." Within two seconds I could hear the phone ringing. Edwards answered, Nessie must be sleep. "Hello Cristy, I'm sorry but Nes-" "Edward the scent it close." I knew he would be able to hear me from the window. "Where are Jake and Embry?" "I told them to leave when I got here." "Damnit!" "Edward I can't leave her but the vampire is so close; no more then a mile off, probably closer." "I know, by time we get there the vampire will be gone, but we're on our way." "Okay." Edward hung up and that's when I suddenly heard Cristy's heart racing. I turned around and saw her with her keens pulled up to her chest and her arms wrapped around her legs. She didn't feel protected. I kept the window open and pulled her into my lap. "Cristy, everything is going to be fine, okay." She nodded and I could feel her begin to relax. "See, the Cullens are almost here, I can smell them." About a minute later Edward and Bella were standing in Cristy's room. "Alice and Jasper went to chase the scent; everyone else is at back at the house watching Nessie." Cristy lifted her head up and smiled lightly at them. Bella walked towards the bed to try to help relax Cristy and Edward nodded for us to go and talk. Cristy hesitated before she let go of my hand. "I'll be right back, I promise." She nodded and I went with Edward outside. "You shouldn't have told Jacob and Embry to leave. The point of having two wolves is so that one can stay and one can go after the scent." "I know." "But, this might work in our benefit." I looked up at him confused. How in the hell could this work in our benefit? I'm sure that Alice and Jasper didn't catch the vampire simply because the scent got weaker right after I told Cristy to call Nessie. "Because, now we know that whoever is after Cristy is watching our every move, and since you didn't smell anything before Cristy got here then that means that this vampire had to be watching us from afar." "You think the vampire has a power?" Edward nodded. "Well then it's probably like Alice's power or your power." "Maybe, we have to wait until we know more." A few minutes later we could hear Alice and Jasper approaching us. "We couldn't find the scent." Jasper didn't waste anytime; he got right to the point. "Yeah, we lost it near the ocean in La Push." "Okay, so what are we going to do?" "We have a meeting with the pack tonight. Alice and Seth, you guys can stay with Nessie; the rest of us can go back to the house." We all nodded and Bella came right down and I went up. She jumped up and wrapped her arms around me. "Are you okay?" Was she asking me if I was okay? "Yes, but the question is are you okay?" She nodded. "Come on don't lie." "No, I'm better, Bella helped me relax." "Okay. Well Alice is outside and everyone else is going to have a meeting with the packs tonight. Edward may be on to something." "What do you mean?" I pulled her back to the bed. "Come on I can tell you in the morning, but now it's your turn to sleep." "No, tell me now." I shook my head. "In the morning I'll come over and I will tell you everything." "Wait, you're leaving." "No, not now but I will when you parents start to wake up." She looked deep into my eyes before very gently kissing me on my lips. "Goodnight Seth." "Night Cristy." ?POV "How did it go?" "It went perfectly considering the situation. Seth and Cristy were terrified." "Stop being so negative; she has a plan and in the end we will all get what we want." But I wasn't sure if I wanted this anymore. "Look, just do what you're supposed to do okay? This will all be over soon." "How do you know that? What if the plan doesn't work?" "You want Cristy for yourself right?" I nodded, that's all I have ever wanted. "And I need the money I was promised. So stop fucking second guessing everything before we are both dead.Chapter 27
Nessie's POV
I watched as Uncle Jasper was trying to hide his smile. Normally he would only smile around Alice but today his friends were coming. He had joined with them after he decided to leave Maria and her cult during the Civil War; Peter and his mate Charlotte. Ever since they said they were coming he's been a little happier around everyone and not just Alice.
"Jasper."
"Yes love?"
"They will be here in fifteen minutes." Jasper smiled and pulled Alice into a hug.
"Uncle Jasper is it okay that Cristy is coming over this morning?"
"Yeah that's fine just make sure you introduce yourself to Peter and Charlotte; I've been telling them about everyone and they are especially excited about meeting you."
"Of course. Wait I think that's Cristy outside now." I walked outside to meet her.
"Good morning Mrs. Dylon."
"Well hello Nessie, how are you?"
"Great, but I'm sorry I have to steal your daughter for the day."
"Well I'll let it slide, just make sure you guys have fun."
"Don't worry we will."
"Okay by mom."
"By sweetie, call me when you're ready to go." Cristy nodded then her mom drove off and we went inside.
"Nessie we have so much to talk about." I loved how energetic she was at 10am
"Okay but first you have to tell me what happened last night?" We walked up the steps slowly; I knew she was still sore from Wednesday. When we got upstairs she sat on my bed and started to tell me everything.
"Okay so yesterday Seth came over and it was really late so I was worried about him. I mean he was the one who told me that he never got any sleep. Then he told me that he felt bad about-" she paused, I guess she was remembering everything that happened because her heart rate increased," Umm he felt bad about Wednesday and I told him it wasn't his fault."
"Knowing Seth he just insisted that it was."
"Yeah, exactly and then we were laying down in my bed and that's when he jumped up and went to the window. I was scared out of my mind but I didn't want him to start worrying about me so I tried to relax. He had me call you and your dad picked up."
"Yeah when I woke up my cell phone wasn't on the charger."
"Well I guess your dad took it with him when he came to my house, but by then Seth said that the vampire was already gone and apparently it was the same one from Wednesday." I watched as Cristy pulled her knees to her chest and push her bangs back; she didn't look to hot. I mean it was obvious that for some reason a vampire was after her and she had no idea why. She was probably on edge a lot.
"Cristy, don't worry, we will find them. My family and the packs have experience with things like this." I gently rubbed her back until she started to relax. She just sighed.
"Well enough about me, what happened with you and Jake? I came downstairs on Thursday and you we gone and we haven't really got to talk much with everything going."
"Yeah and at school, I can't believe Anne and Reyna are still on our backs." Cristy started laughing.
"I know, they need to get a life and grow up, but anyways tell me about you and Jake, what happened?"
"He got to the house after you went upstairs and when my dad saw him he was furious but he knew how much I was hurting so he agreed to let Jake drive me to school and drop me home."
"So what, did he apologize?"
"I didn't know what to say to him the first few minutes that we were in the car. I was angry at him for ignoring me but I was happy that he was trying to fix it. He thought that if we didn't communicate for a while that Edward would cool down and eventually let us see each other again. But there is a difference from not communicating and acting like I don't exist. He made me fell dumb and useless and just stupid. He was crying in the car as he apologized so I made him pull over."
"Oh my gosh Nessie, I mean it's obvious that he felt really bad."
"Yeah his tears just made me feel terrible when I was trying to be angry. And then when I looked up at him that's when I gave in, like a complete push over. His eyes, they make me do anything." I looked up to see Cristy but she was looking at me expectantly and waiting for me to finish.
"Then on top of that he told me that he loved me over and over and kept apologizing and making all of these promises to never hurt me again. I started crying and I forgave him instantly. We started laughing at each other for all the crying we were doing."
"You guys are so cute Nessie. I don't even know how the either one of you survived being apart for so long."
"I know, he said the same thing, and since my dad hasn't agreed to let him move back in he gave me this bracelet to remind me of him." Cristy gently took my wrist to see the inscription on the bracelet.
Forever and always I will love you…
She let out that signature "aww" before she pulled me into a hug.
"I'm so happy that you are legitimately smiling again; all of you smiles for the past week have obviously been forced." I laughed; she was the only one to actually admit that to me.
"Nessie they are here, please come downstairs."
"Okay we're coming."
"Who are you talking to?" I looked up at Cristy confused.
"Uncle Jasper's friends are here and they told us to come downstairs."
"Oh right the super hearing. I seriously forget sometimes because you all act so normal." Realizing what she meant I started laughing; it would take a while for her to get use to all walked downstairs to see everyone in the living room sitting down comfortably.
"Is this the precious Renesme?" The women who I assumed to be Charlotte approached me with her husband Peter right behind; I smiled at them.
"Yes, but you can call me Nessie."
"Well Nessie we've heard a lot about you." Peter's voice was deeper then I had pictured but I liked it.
"Uncle Jasper would only say good things about me, I hope." Everyone in the room cracked a smile and Alice started laughing before her hyper self jumped up.
"Nessie are you going to introduce your friend?" Alice, always trying to save my butt, I had completely forgotten that Cristy was here, she usually wasn't so quiet.
"Oh, sorry, this is my friend Cristy, she just moved here about two months ago."
"Nice to meet you Cristy, how are you adapting to all this rain?" Cristy's face looked a little off before she responded with a smile.
"Umm honestly, I kinda' hate all the rain but it is fine, I can deal with it."
"Nessie, later Peter and Charlotte would like to see the movie." The quiet Jasper jumped into the conversation. After a while my storyline of my family history and grown to be called the home movie.
"Okay that's fine, just call me when you're ready, Cristy and I will be upstairs."
"Nice meeting you guys."
"You too." Cristy and I responded at the same time before we went back upstairs. I looked over at Cristy and I could tell that something downstairs didn't settle well with her.
"Cristy, are you okay."
"Yeah, I have to show you something." She said yes but she shook her head. I went along with it.
"What?"
"It's on the computer." I went to my laptop and opened up the notepad. Cristy immediately started typing.
It's Charlotte. She moved over so I could respond.
What about her?
I don't know, she makes me feel…..uncomfortable.
How?
Forget about it it's probably just me overreacting. I've been kinda crazy lately. I'm just trying to get use to everything that's been happening.
Are you sure?
Yeah it doesn't matter. Cristy looked up at me and I nodded before we started talking more about basically everything.
"So, are you and Seth still going on that date tonight?"
"No, he said that he wanted to wait until I was fully healed before he took me out, which reminds me, I have to ask Carsile to look at my shoulder for me."
"So besides your arm, how does the rest of your body feel?"
"Well I've been taking the pain killers that Carsile gave me so I haven't really been able to tell if the pain is subsiding so today I didn't take anything and I feel okay. I mean there is still some soreness but I can handle it."
"Did you tell Seth, I'm sure he would be happy that you're getting better?"
"No I didn't, but he wouldn't believe me anyways." Seth would believe anything that Cristy told him.
"Why not?"
"He thinks that I'm trying to rush the healing process because I want to go on this date and he's right because I have been. Unless he hears Carsile say that I'm perfectly back to normal he's staying on his protective side."
"Cristy, that's adorable." She smiled towards me.
"I know but he won't let anything go to far. Like when we kiss he'll stop it early, and he's scared that he'll hurt me so he won't let me see him shift. Oh and he doesn't tell me stuff, he always wants to talk about me, but I want to know more about him."
"Cristy, you were attacked by some random vampires like three days ago, give him some time, Seth will come around." I don't think Cristy really realized that Seth was effected by this too. She thought that he should just go back to normal and that he shouldn't feel bad but Seth felt horrible. Uncle Jasper told me that he couldn't be around him for too long because the guilt would start to be too much.
"You're probably right-", she sighed lightly and she looked down, "I just—I don't know." She knew, and I knew; she just wished that Wednesday had never happened, and I can't blame her. From now on things between her and Seth were going to be different.
It was quiet for a little while, Cristy was in thought and so was I, but I knew that we were getting closer because it wasn't awkward, it was comfortable.
"Nessie are you allowed to see Jake on the weekends?" Her question pulled me from my train of thought.
"Jake on the weekends? Well I don't want to push my dad, he's already being very generous, but maybe if Seth was there too…" Cristy started smiling.
"Maybe if Seth was there then he would feel more comfortable." We started laughing.
"Wait he can hear us right?" Cristy started whispering and I just nodded as I waited for my dad to make his way upstairs. Sure enough he was knocking at my door.
"Come in." Cristy looked up at my dad and looked dumbfounded and amused. He just smiled at her.
"How are you Cristy?"
"I'm good, and you?"
"I could be better, but no complaints." He looked over at me and smiled brightly at him.
"Daddy please can we go hang out with Jake and Seth?" My dad had plastered his straight face on which expressed no emotion, I had a fifty fifty chance. I grabbed his hand and he sighed.
"Fine, but they have to come here and-"
"But dad Peter and Charlotte might not like that smell that you guys are always complaining about."
"Seth and Jake don't smell." Cristy jumped in and I started to explain.
"Werewolves and vampires are natural enemies so they both smell bad to the other."
"Oh."
"And the whole vampire "super smell" capability."
"Wait you guys have advanced smelling abilities too?" My dad looked at her and smiled at her understandably naïve question.
"Yes Cristy."
"I mean it would make sense, anyways… maybe we can just see them another time Nessie."
"Ummmmm….. no." Cristy smiled at me.
"Dad, come on just two hours and we will be back." He moved his hands to his temples as if he were having a headache.
"Fine that's it two hours and not a minute late." I jumped up and threw my hands around my dad's neck.
"Thank-you, thank-you, thank-you!"
"Nessie do not make me regret this, okay?" I nodded and he vanished back downstairs.
"Whoa! Where did he go?" Before I could reply Cristy answered herself.
"Super speed!" I laughed at her again. Until she got use to this it would all be pretty funny.
Seth's POV
I sat up as I heard Jake's alarm go off. Why did he feel the need to go jogging this morning of all mornings? He laid there peacefully still fully sleep as I glared at him.
"Jake! Jake, get up!" With all my strength I threw my pillow at him and he shot up.
"What the hell Seth!"
"You're alarm went off so get up and turn it off." He growled and got up as I dragged myself into my own bed. Last night he came back to my house and passed out in my bed. When Alice finally forced me to go home it was three in the morning and I was on the air mattress. I needed a few more hours in my own bed. I rolled over and closed my eyes before I drifted back to sleep.
Everyday, every night, I wanna' see you baby staying by my side
I'm goin' down on my, on my knees for you
For your love I'd do it
For your sake believe I do
If you don't love me
Why do you raise my hopes
No matter what happens I can't let you go
Everyday, every night, I wanna' see you baby staying by my side
I'm goin' down on my, on my knees for you
(Adore you by Lil' Rain .com)
I shot up as I heard Cristy's ringtone coming from my phone.
"Hello?"
"Hey Seth, oh no, did I wake you?" I cleared my throat and tried to sound wide awake.
"No no, I'm awake."
"No Seth go back to sleep, I'm sorry."
"Cristy I'm fine what do you need."
"Nothing okay, don't worry about me okay just sleep, please."
"Cris, baby, please just talk to me."
"Yo, Seth get up, Nessie and Cristy want us to go pick them up!" Jake slammed into my room. I heard Cristy sigh on the phone, she obviously heard Jake.
"Cris I'll be there in ten minutes."
"No Seth, you barely sleep."
"I wanna' see you."
"You can, umm Nessie and I will come over there and they can hang out and you can take a nap while I lay next to you." I looked over at Jake knowing he was listening to the conversation. He nodded, letting me know that he was cool with it.
"Okay but I'm not going back to sleep until you get here."
"Well then I better hurry up." I smiled and we said goodbye before we hung up.
"They are coming here."
"Well then we better clean up!" We got up and did our version of a clean up. We threw everything into the closet and deflated the mattress. Jake threw the dishes into the dishwasher and put all the random sock and clothes into the basement. I brushed my teeth but I didn't have enough time to shave; I could hear Jake opening the door. I threw some water on my face and walked to go meet them.
"Hey Nessie, umm where's Cristy?"
"Hey Seth, she's in your room which you should be sleeping in."
"Okay thanks." I walked into my room to see my beautiful Cristy sitting on my bed, her back against the headboard. Her heart rate sped up faster than normal.
"Hey." She looked up trying to control her blush, but failing.
"Hi." I walked around to the other side of my bed and got in. I could feel her eyes watching me.
"You're heart is beating really fast."
"I know."
"Why?" I smiled at her as she raised her hand to my face.
"Well on top of the fact that you're not wearing a shirt….your stubble on your face, it looks very nice on you."
"You like it?"
"It's rough and sexy." A smile quickly spread across her face and her eyes lit up. I pulled her hand down gently and placed my lips on her smooth ones. She moved her hands from mine and they found my ears. Her tongue traced my lips asking for entry and I quickly complied allowing our tongues to move together. I placed my hand on her waist and lifted her onto my lap and that's when she pulled away.
"Cristy, did I hurt you?"
"No, you're fine." I looked at her confused.
"You need to stop trying to seduce me and get some rest."
"Nah I'm okay." She laughed.
"Oh I bet you are." She slid off my lap and laid down so I slid down next to her.
"Stop staring at me." She was half laughing. She took her hand and covered my eyes. I laughed whole heartedly and pulled her closer.
"Alright, I'll go to sleep."
"You promise?"
"Yep." Cristy took her hand off my face and I kept my eyes closed as she snuggled her head into my neck. I'm pretty sure she fell asleep before I did.
? POV
"I can see them; they are all at Seth's house. Cristy is sleeping by his side and Renesme and Jacob are in the kitchen."
"Very good child, very good." I felt her cold uncaring arms wrap around me.
"We can't scare them anymore there is too much protection over the both of them. So we are sticking with the new plan. Kennedy you know what you have to do right."
"Yes."
"You cannot screw this up Kennedy." Her face turned evil and insane as she grabbed Kennedy by his neck and forced his body against the wall.
"Because if you screw up the whole plan is pointless. This is our last chance to kill Christine Dylon, do you hear me?" Kennedy was trying to nod but his face was red, he couldn't breath. All I wanted to do was cry. I hated her, I hated how I got caught up in this, I hated that I was going to have to kill my best friend
Chapter 28
Cristy's POV
It had been about a week since the last scare but that didn't change anything; everyone was still doing patrols and staying at my house crazy hours of the night. I felt bad, all of this was supposed to help me but I couldn't even help myself. Seth promised that he would let me help as soon as Carlisle said that I was completely healed. He probably didn't remember but I did and I would most definitely hold him too it.
"Christine, how do you feel?" I took off my shirt so Carlisle could see my arms; bruise free.
"I feel a lot better; I don't even have the headaches anymore." He smiled at me.
"Okay, take a few deep breathes." I breathed in a couple of times and he patted me on the back.
"Everything sounds good. What about your stitches on your shoulder?"
"I don't even feel it, I think the stitched dissolved."
"Well let's take a look." Carsile quickly made his way to the other side of my body to look at my shoulder.
"Christine, I just see the stitch mark, but there is nothing else there. The rate at which you've healed it still quite fascinating to me, I've never seen anyone recover so quickly." I smiled.
"So wait, does this mean that I am back to normal again?"
"Yes." I grabbed my shirt and threw it on as I yelled in excitement.
"Okay Carsile but you have to tell Seth, otherwise he won't believe me and I won't be able to do anything. It's literally been the longest two weeks of my life!" Carsile laughed and took off his white coat.
"I'll go tell him now."
"Seth's not here yet." He looked at me and I immediately remembered; the super hearing.
"Now he is; he just came up the driveway." Carsile walked with me down the stairs to open the door for Seth.
"Cristy!" Seth pulled me into a gentle hug and kissed my cheek."
"Seth Carsile has to tell you something." Seth looked at me for a few more seconds before turning and greeting Carsile.
"Hi Carsile."
"Hello Seth, how are you?"
"I'm fine, thank you."
"So, what's the news?"
"Christine here is perfectly healed. Except for the stitch line on her shoulder, you wouldn't think that she was in any kind of accident." Seth looked back at me smiling brightly and pulling me into another hug.
"So this means that I can help, right?" The confused look that I was expecting took over his face and Carsile chuckled.
"Okay you two I have to get to the hospital, I'll see you guys later."
"Okay Carsile, and thanks for all your help."
"No problem Christine, I'm just happy that you've healed." Seth and I said goodbye to Carsile as he walked to his car.
"So Seth what can I do to help?"
"Help what?"
"Help you catch the vampire that everyone is looking for."
"No, Cristy we have this under control so there is no reason for your help."
"Seth you promised." He shook his head confused.
"When did I do that?"
"Monday night." I watched as he started to remember.
"Cristy, that doesn't count." I started to laugh and he smiled as I felt his hands wrap around my waist.
"Yes it does."
"You can't use my weakness, that's like taking advantage of me." He smiled harder knowing he was full of crap.
"You've done it to me many times Seth."
"I've never tried to seduce you to get you to do something for me." I felt his eyes look deep into mine as his hands started to rub my back; I could feel the goose bumps.
"You're doing it now."
"Seth, Cristy, please control yourselves." My head shot up to see Edward as he walked past us and up the stairs. Embarrassed, I pulled away from him and cleared my throat.
"Sorry." It felt weird whispering something and knowing that everyone in the house could hear you.
"What were you thinking about?" Seth looked down at me with an amused look on his face.
"What were you thinking about?" Edward would've just said my name if it was me.
"Come on, let's go." He took my hand in his as he smiled down at me.
"Okay let me just say goodbye to Nessie."
"BY CRISTY, I'LL SEE YOU TOMORROW!" I guess Nessie could hear me because she yelled from upstairs; I still needed to get use to this. We walked to Seth's car, which was the sexy black one that Edward and Bella gave him; he smiled every time he looked at it.
"Seth?" He turned to me as he pulled off onto the highway.
"Yeah."
"What can I do to help?" I know that he thought I forgot. He sighed.
"Cristy, I told you that we don't need your help."
"Seth you promised that I could."
"Cristy, if you are on my lap, unbuttoning your t-shirt and kissing me like there's no tomorrow, then I'll probably agree to anything you say." The memory sent shivers down my back.
"Seeeth, come on I really want to at least try to help." I childishly moaned his name.
"Why do you want to help so badly?"
"Seth, everyone is staying up crazy hours of the night, doing patrols, watching me and my parents, and all I do is sit around. It's not fair to them, I feel so bad and completely useless."
"Cristy, no one minds doing this for you, so don't feel bad or useless, just let us keep you and your family safe."
"They could all be doing better things, and getting some sleep, then standing outside my house all night."
"First of all the Cullen's, they don't sleep, and the werewolves, we always do patrols," he paused and I could feel his eyes on my as I looked down; he sighed,", But I'll see if there is anything that you can do to help out." I looked up and smiled at him.
"Thanks Seth."
"Anything for you Cris." I felt the blush creeping up and he laughed. Not long after that we Seth pulled up in front of my house.
"My mom's car, it's not there." I walked inside the house and found a note on the counter.
Hey Cristy I had to go pick up your
father, something is wrong with his car, so
I'll be back later. If you and Seth are
hungry I left money for pizza.
"How did she know that I was coming over today?"
"Seth you come over everyday." He laughed and took my hand.
"Come on let's go upstairs, you have to do your homework, so you can get some rest."
"Seth first of all I'm all better now so no more painkillers that make me sleepy, and I finished my homework already. Carsile didn't get to the house until around 4:30, so Nessie, Jake and I did homework." He looked at me suspiciously.
"Did Carsile look at your shoulder too?" I nodded.
"Look." I pulled my shirt down so he could see the stitch marks on my shoulder."
"And are you sure that you have no more headaches?" I nodded.
"Come on let's get your homework over with." We took off our shoes and sat on my bed before Seth pulled out his homework.
"Wait Cristy, don't you have tutoring today, it's Wednesday."
"Nah, Mr. Hastings's said that he couldn't do Wednesday so we rescheduled it for Friday."
"Friday?"
"Yeah, why, what's happening on Friday?"
"Well I figured that since you were better that I could finally take you out on Friday, but Saturday is fine, are you busy Saturday?" I shook my head completely ecstatic; Seth hadn't forgotten. He had his back rested against the headboard and I moved closer to him.
"Maybe we should do homework later." He looked up at me with a knowing grin on his face.
"Did you have something more exciting in mind?" As he saw me move into his lap he threw his books onto the floor.
"Actually I did." Sitting in Seth's lap made me feel safe and protected, but at the same time I felt love and lust. They way that he looked into my eyes turned me on so much, and he knew it.
"Cristy?"
"Yes."
"I love you so much." I smiled before I planted a kiss on his full sweet lips. Immediately I could feel his strong arms wrap around my lower back and pull me closer to him. What started off as a slow kiss quickly grew to be an urgent need, like if we stopped kissing, someone would run out of air. I kissed him harder as our tongues intertwined with each others. My hands quickly went to the bottom of his shirt and we pulled away for a second to pull it off. His hands went farther down my back and made their way into my underwear. He gently caressed my ass before gripping it with control and power. I moaned out his name and ran my hands all over his built chest and in response he somehow gripped me harder and pulled me even closer. I moaned louder and he pulled away from my mouth and started to leave a hot trail of kisses down my jaw line and my neck. I breathed heavily and continued to moan. When his hot kisses met the top of my shirt he looked at me first, asking with his eyes if he could take it off, when I didn't respond he slowly moved his hands from my ass and started to lift my shirt off, leaving me with just the bra.
"Dammit Cristy!"
"What, did I hurt you?" He smiled up at me.
"Baby, I just love how quickly you can get to me." Right then I could feel him continue kissing down to the valley of my breasts. My body started shivering as I moaned uncontrollably. When he pulled away I immediately captured his lips in mine and didn't waste time with the tongue. He moaned my name which just made me want him that much more. Seth placed his hands on my back as he toyed with my bra strap; constantly teasing me; making me think he was going to unhook it. Slowly I moved my mouth from his lips and to his ear; I knew for a fact that he loved it when I messed with his ears. I kissed one and rubbed the other one lightly as I whispered things into his ears.
"I want you so badly Seth. I want you inside of me all night, I never want you to let go of me. I need your mouth on my body." His moans were heavy and uneven and that's when I started to kiss his ears harder, using more tongue. Immediately I felt his hands back on my ass gripping it harder and catching me of guard, I moaned out his name as I moved to the other ear. I could feel him growing against me.
"You can do anything you want with me. I'm all yours forever. I love you more than you know." I kissed around his whole ear and he moaned my name louder. Toying with him now, I brushed my lips against his and pulled away. Then I kissed him quickly again before pulling away. He opened his eyes and looked up at me, his eyes full of desire.
"What are you doing to me?" He was still breathing hard but he didn't sound weak, he still sounded strong. I tapped his lips with another kiss, but this time he didn't let me pull away. He pulled me closer and held me there before he unhooked my bra strap.
"Baby, lay back." I listened as Seth's voice somehow got deeper.
"Cristy, Seth, where are you guys?"
"Damnit!"
"Oh my god!" Seth growled and looked at me deep in the eyes before he pulled away. I re-hooked my bra and threw my shirt on. Seth jumped off the bed grabbing his shirt and went into the bathroom. I fixed the blanket on my bed.
"Cristy?" That was my dad's voice.
"Yeah dad we're upstairs." I could hear him coming up the steps so I threw Seth's books onto my desk and I sat on my bed with my laptop. He knocked on the door and I said he could come in.
"Hey daddy."
"Hey sweetheart, what's up?"
"Homework." He was looking around my room suspiciously.
"Uh huh, and where's Seth?"
"He's in the bathroom." Right then I could hear the toilet flush and the water start to run from the sink. He came outside.
"Oh, hi Mr. Dylon." My dad shook Seth's hand.
"Hello Seth, what have you guys been up to?" Seth casually sat down at my desk and looked back at my dad.
"Nothing much, just homework."
"Well, good, finish it up." Seth nodded and my dad looked around again before he left the room. I glanced over at Seth but he was already looking at me.
"Oh my gosh, that was too close!" I watched Seth but he didn't respond, he was just looking at me.
"What?" He still didn't say anything.
"Seth, are you okay?" He cleared his throat.
"Yeah, umm, Cristy I gotta' go." I stood up and walked over to him.
"What, why?" He looked me dead in the eyes
"Because if I don't leave I'm going to take you for myself."
Seth's POV
Her heart rate immediately sped up and it just turned me on more. I moved closer to her and kept eye contact.
"I love you so much Cristy." I could hear it in my voice, it was deeper. Damnit! I wanted her so badly. One more kiss before I have to-
"Cristy!" her mom called her from downstairs and I stopped myself but Cristy didn't budge, she was still looking at me.
"Cristy!" Her mom called again.
"Cristy, your mom called you."
"Oh, yeah mom?" She still kept eye contact.
"Do you guys still want pizza for dinner?"
"Seth, do you want to stay for pizza." I wanted to stay for so much more then some pizza, but I couldn't, I felt so out of control and I didn't trust myself to be near her for another second.
"I can't." Her facial expression went from dazed to sad.
"We can go to your house, no one's home." I wanted to so badly, that idea had already crossed my mind.
"No. At the very, very least you deserve a proper date before I make love to you; I want it to be special." Just the thought of me pleasuring her in such a way sent shivers down my back.
"You're killing me." I laughed lightly.
"No I think it's the other way around." She stared at me before pushing away and moving her arms behind her.
"What?"
"You have to go, right?" I cleared my throat and nodded my head.
"Saturday, I'm taking you out; I'll pick you up at 6:30."
"Okay, I'll be ready." I looked at her, completely taken over by curiosity before I quickly kissed her on her cheek and left.
"Oh Seth your leaving?" Mrs. Dylon was in the kitchen cooking; I guess she wasn't ordering pizza.
"Yeah, my mom called and she needs my help with something."
"Okay, then I'll see you tomorrow."
"Of course." I opened the front door and quickly, almost running, got into my car and took off. I need to get away from her; my beautiful Cristy was testing me and it was killing me. If I was in there for another second with her I would have showed her just how much I loved her. I was honestly considering making love to her right after her dad left the room, and was sure as hell more then a thought, I was definitely doing to take her. After about a few minutes of driving I pulled over, the rush of emotions going through me made it hard to concentrate. I always felt a little dizzy after "operating" with Cristy, but never like this, never had it hit me so dangerously, bone crushingly hard. What was I going to do; because the next time saw her I would have no restraint. All of these thoughts will come rushing back and I'll be right where I am right now, burning with love, lust and desire. Her voice; what tempting things that had come from her sweet voice, and those lips; God what I still wanted to do to her full, smooth lips.
Pull yourself together man! Today is Wednesday and Saturday is only three days away. Plus there is so much more to love then the sexual part. I love her personality; the fact that she cares about people other then herself, her innocence, her ability to play the cello, perseverance; the list goes on. I couldn't help but wonder what she was thinking at that exact moment but I had to get it out of my head because I needed to keep driving at get away from her scent, it was still very strong.
?POV
I was still instructed to watch them very carefully, If I didn't, she would have my head; quite literally. If I could have a headache I would, my life, or lack of a life, was such a mess. How did all this even happen? I missed the urge to cry, I missed the opportunity to sleep and escape the evils of the world, I missed dreaming, I missed everything; everything that I thought I had hated, I truly missed and longed for.
"Child!" I stiffened at her presence.
"Yes?"
"What are they doing?"
"Seth just left her house she's having trouble concentrating-"
"I don't care about that! What happened while he was over there, what did they talk about?"
"Since Kennedy rescheduled the tutoring session Seth changed the day of their date for Saturday."
"What else?"
"That's when they are planning on having sex."
"We have to stop that from happening."
"Why?"
"Are you questioning me?" Her eyes turned to a darker shade of red as she grabbed my wrist. Pain shot through my arm as she squeezed tighter.
"No." She glared as I whimpered before she let go.
"Anything else I need to know?"
"They almost had sex today but Seth stopped it?"
"For what reason?"
"He wants it to be special for her." She made a disgusted look face and patted me on the head.
"It's sad you know; I've been trying to figure out how you gained this power of yours and I think I figured it out. You didn't appreciate you own life, so now you get to watch the lives of other." A wave of sadness suddenly came over me as she let out her cruel uncaring laugh.
"Oh don't be sad child; it was a blessing because now I have you." There was no God for either of us, so no blessings; only the devil and his demons. I didn't meet her eyes.
"This Saturday you have to cause a distraction during their date; they cannot have sex; do you understand?"
"Yes."
"You cannot mess this up or it will truly be the end of your life. Do not let them see you or hear you, all hat Seth needs is to recognize you scent. Just like last time. We just need to scare them enough to not have sex; then we follow through with the other plan" A far as I was concerned my life was already over.
Cristy's POV
I couldn't believe that it was Saturday already. Nessie was over my house an we only had an hour and thirty minutes to get ready; thank God that we had picked out the outfit with Alice like weeks ago.
"Ooo before I forget, Alice wanted me to tell you sorry that she couldn't be here. She and Uncle Jasper are going out with Charlotte and Peter tonight."
"No it's okay, we'll take pictures for her."
"She already knows what you look like, remember, the visions?"
"Yeah, right okay, but still I think she'd like the picture."
"Okay."
"So how is it in the house with Peter and Charlotte?"
"Umm, it's okay, just more people who know my business. But what's kind of weird is that I apparently met them when I was a baby, but I don't remember; I remember everyone I met because it was during the battle between my family and the Volturi, remember?"
"Of course, plus don't vampires have supper memory?"
"Exactly, it's a little weird but I mean it's nothing big. Anyways back to you and this hair." I had just gotten out of the shower and Nessie was trying to comb through it.
"You have a lot of hair Cristy." I smiled at the compliment.
"Yeah, but it takes a while to do."
"Good thing we have like an hour and a half before Seth gets here, or we'd be screwed. Oh and there is still make up!" She was freaking out and I just chuckled.
"Breathe Nessie, you do that half of my head and I'll do this half."
"No. Sorry but it's faster if I do it." I nodded and she started dividing my hair into sections to blow dry and then curl. It was the longest hour of my life, but it was worth it, my hair was amazing.
"Nessie…..this is beautiful…I mean, Wow!"
"It was nothing, a little tug here, some hairspray there and voila!" I stood at my hair in amazement, before she quickly spun me around.
"Time for the make-up chica; we only have thirty minutes left, plus you have to actually get dressed." Before I could even respond, Nessie was attacking my face with a facial cleansing wipe and apply makeup.
"I'm going to go super fast, so do not move at all, and don't nod, just stay like this." I could feel my face being plucked and attacked with brushes, eyeliner, mascara, and God knows what.
"You've got to be kidding me."
"What, what happened!" Nessie was rarely altered by anything so when she was, it was big.
"We still have about twenty minutes!"
"Nessie, what?"
"Cristy, don't move."
"Tell me what's going on!"
"We're going to have two problems if you don't stop moving." I sat there anxious as to what was happening, and then I heard a knock at the door.
"Is that Seth?"
"Yep."
"Oh My God! Nessie we have to hurry up!"
"I know Cristy, I'm almost done with the makeup, just give me like 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, ¾ of a second…..okay done."
"Cristy, Seth is downstairs!" my mom yelled from the bottom of the steps and I was freaking out.
"Thanks mom." I didn't even have a chance to look at my make-up; as soon as Nessie finished I jumped up and ran into the bathroom to get dressed.
"Cristy, Seth said that he's early, so don't rush."
"What, I didn't he- oh right, hearing."
"Just hurry up." As I grabbed my dress I caught a glimpse of myself in the mirror and I couldn't look away. The young lady staring back at me looked breathtakingly phenomenal. How had Nessie managed to create all this, with just plain old me?
"He's laughing at you." I could hear the amusement in Nessie's voice. That brought me back to reality as I finished getting dressed.
"Nessie, can you come in, I can't reach the zipper?" Nessie walked in and pulled up the zipper and then passed me my purse.
"Thank-you soo much Nessie, you have no idea hoe much I appreciate this." She smiled and hugged me.
"Just go have fun, okay?" I nodded.
"In the purse you have the cell, lipstick, chap stick, breath mints, and "female stuff" just incase." Please do not let that happen tonight!
"Anything else?"
"Yes, a quick picture for Alice, and then you're off." We took a picture with Nessie's camera and then made our way down the hall. I could feel Seth's presence the closer we got to the stairs. At the top of the step I could see him in his "business casual" attire, and stunning look on his face. I could already tell that this was going to be the best night of my life.
Dear Readers,
I know that there have been some assumptions about the whole Nessie not remembering Peter and Charlotte but that was all a mistake I made. I forgot that Nessie had met Peter and Charlotte during the war. So, just to clear everything up there is no story behind why Nessie forgot about them, but no worries there is A LOT about to happen within the next few chapters, this story still has a long way to go so keep reading!

Chapter 29
Seth's POV
I caught my breath as I saw the goddess appear at the top of the steps. Cristy was always beautiful to me, but tonight, I wouldn't be able to control any part of myself. Her mid-thigh length cream dress complimented her beautifully tanned skin tone. The heels emphasized her perfect legs and on top of that she smell like cherry blossom. I caught her eyes and held them as she walked down the steps. I couldn't believe that I had been granted the honor of taking this beauty out on a date. It felt like forever for her to get down the stairs, but when she finally did I took her hand into mine. I could feel the chemistry and love between us; it was strong and impossible to miss.

*(if the link doesn't work and you want me to re-paste it just let me know it would be polyvore . com)
"There aren't words strong enough to describe how beautiful you are." Her tanned cheeks turned that adorable shade of burgundy as I whispered into her ear.
"Thank you, and you don't look to bad yourself." I smiled lightly and kept my eyes on hers.
"Cristy, I have your bag and I'm going to take it to my house." I looked at Cristy confused; I thought she was coming to my house tonight. I had spent the majority of my day setting up and cleaning and trying to "set the atmosphere", but of course, if she changed her mind, that was fine too.
"Oh right," she looked over towards her mom, "Mom, would it be okay if I slept over Nessie's house after?"
"Of course." She smiled at her mom, but I was still missing something.
"Okay Nessie, I'll see you later. Bye Seth." We said goodbye to Nessie and Mrs. Dylon pulled out the camera.
"Now, before you run off I need some pictures." Cristy shrugged and I laughed lightly at her.
"Come on sweetie, just one." Cristy nodded and blinked at the flash so Mrs. Dylon had to take another one.
"Okay, so I hear that you're taking my baby girl out tonight?" I swear out of nowhere, Mr. Dylon popped into the living room, where we were taking the pictures; I didn't even notice that he was in the house.
"Yes sir." I stretched my hand out to shake his.
"What time are you going to bring her home?" The fact that he asked and didn't tell me let me know that the respect was mutual.
"She's arranged to sleepover at Nessie's house tonight, so I will be dropping her off at the Cullen's around 10:30pm."
"Very well then." He turned his attention towards Cristy.
"Call me if you need anything."
"Of course daddy." I was prepared for a "don't hurt my daughter speech" but I didn't receive one; I was honestly beginning to think that he might just like me.
"Well then, have fun, but not too much." Cristy lightly shook her head as Mrs. Dylon walked us you the door.
"She looks so beautiful babe."
"I know, and she really likes Seth, did you see how hard she was smiling?"
I could hear Cristy's parents talking inside as we walked down the walkway towards the car.
"Your parents said that you're beautiful." Cristy looked up at me while I opened the door for her.
"They did?" She was so close to me, I just wanted to pull her into my arms, but I could feel her parents watching us from the window.
"Of course, because it's the truth." A brilliant smile took over her face and I felt weakness in my stomach; I wanted to kiss her so badly. I forced myself to close the door and walk around to the driver's side; I would kiss her after we pulled off from her house.
"Did I say anything to make you feel uncomfortable?" I closed the door to my side and pulled off. I still hadn't gotten any answers as to why she was sleeping at Nessie's house tonight.
"No, what are you talking about?"
"You can tell my Cristy, its fine if you're not ready." I was looking at her, trying to let her see how serious I was; I didn't want to pressure her.
"Wait, are you talking about me sleeping over at Nessie's places?" I nodded. She laughed at me and that brilliant smile covered her face. I couldn't help but watch her lips as they curved into a smile, they were full and kissable.
"Seth, I'm not sleeping at Nessie's, she put my bag of clothes in your car. I just needed to have an explanation for where I would be tonight." I wanted to slap myself; I mean that should have been obvious.
"You can't get rid of me that easily Seth." Right then I pulled over and she looked right at me surprised.
"I don't want to get rid of you, ever, but I do want to kiss you." I wrapped my finger around her curled hair that hung elegantly around her face and placed my hand gently on her leg; I could feel her goose-bumps rise from my touch. Her mouth hung open slightly and I leaned in. My lips wrapped around hers, the sweet, luscious feel of he lips sent me into a frenzy and I wanted more. As if she could read my mind her lips parted and my tongue slipped into her mouth, meeting hers right away. The burning in the pit of my stomach grew and I wrapped my arms around Cristy's waist. She was too far away from me, she needed to be closer. Suddenly, a loud noise went off and Cristy jerked away. When I heard the sound again I realized it was coming from my phone and I remembered; it was my alarm letting me know that I had twenty-five minutes to get to the restaurants. I pulled out my phone and shut off the alarm. At the moment I hated how well I had planned this.
"What was that?"
"I set an alarm to let myself know how much time I had."
"Had to what?" She almost had me, but she was going to have to wait and see.
"You'll find out soon enough." She sat up and tried to reassemble herself.
"Come on Seth, just tell me!" I could see the curiosity in her eyes.
"About twenty-five minutes."
"Well, then start driving." I looked at her amused.
"It's not safe to operate any heavy machinery after kissing you."
Cristy's POV
We arrived at this elegant restaurant hidden in the woods. Twinkling lights hung through the trees and framed the road that lead to the doors. The dark blue sky and the lights allowed for a very romantic feel. Nessie had convinced me that Seth wasn't very romantic, but so far this atmosphere was just that. As soon as we pulled up to the doors a man walked out. Seth put the car in park and got out to open my door; handing the keys to the man in the process.
"Are you ready?" I wasn't expecting any of this and I was shaking with excitement. I nodded and he smiled at me before taking my hand and escorting me inside. The dark doors opened up into this extremely elegant bright room. Everything shined, like gold in the sun, and I felt my mouth drop open slightly in awe; stunning didn't quite cut it.
"Seth, what, where," I paused still taking everything in and not sure what to say, "This is superb." I turned toward him.
"You like it?"
"I love this."
"Come on, our table is waiting." He pulled my hand through another set of doors where a small table, perfect for two, was set up in the middle of the floor. I still couldn't get over how beautiful this place was, but now it was evident that we were the only one's here.
"I thought it would be better if we could spend our first date away from everyone. I want you for myself." That butterfly feeling that had been in my stomach began to grow. He pulled the chair out for me before pushing it back in and sitting down. A few seconds later a man, much older, in his sixties entered the room with two menus.
"Hello, my name is Cameron and I will be your sever for the night. Can I start you off with something to drink?" Seth held my hand on the table.
"Two waters please." Cameron nodded as he walked away. Seth winked at me and I lifted my menu up, hiding my face. I was blushing so much it was ridiculous. I tried to concentrate on what I wanted to eat but I couldn't, Seth was gently rubbing my hand on the table and I know he could feel the goose-bumps.
Cameron came back with the water and asked us if we were ready to make our order. We both said no and Cameron told us to place the menus on the edge of the table when we've decided.
I could feel Seth looking at me over the top of his menu and I couldn't help but look back. His eyes immediately caught mine and he held tem as if they were his own, as if I had no control, even though they were mine.
"Have you decided what you want yet?"
"No, have you?"
"Yes."
"What?"
"You." My eyes grew wide. Suddenly I felt a burn in my core, my womanly core, and I gently pulled my hand from Seth's, but he kept his grip as well as eye contact.
"Are you having any trouble with the menu?" I hadn't even noticed Cameron walk towards us. I pulled my hand from Seth's quickly and I could see a slick grin spread across his face.
"Actually yes, do you suggest anything in particular?" Cameron nodded and flipped my menu to page three
"This is the chef's favorite, Lemon and oregano grilled chicken with creamy garlic and butter mashed potatoes and freshly steamed string beans." That sounded good.
"Hmm, okay I'll have that."
"And you sir?"
"The Shrimp Fra Diavalo please."
"Very well, your food will be served shortly." As soon as Cameron walked out the bright energizing light dimmed releasing a more relaxed vibe and Seth had moved his chair closer to me so we were both facing the wall.
"Seth, what's happening?" He pulled my hand into his and gently kissed it before winking at me again. All at once the wall, well what I thought was a wall, began to slowly slide open and reveal a lit stage with a single chair. Ii watch as a figure began to walk on the stage with a cello; I immediately knew who it was and I swear m heart was racing. He sat down on the chair, nodded and smiled at me and then assemble himself. Yo-Yo Ma started playing and the beautiful sound of Suite No.1 filled my ears. I watched intently the way his hands smoothly moved across the strings of his instrument. To see this artist play live just for me made my heart swell up. I listened to him play the song, one that I had been working on for a while, perfectly and with so much emotion, his head moved as if he was so completely comfortable. I was astonished by his talent, and by how natural and easy he made it look. A single tear fell from my eye as the end came I knew it, the end was ironically my favorite part, how bitter sweet. Yo-Yo Ma opened his eyes and gripped the neck of the cello as if hugging it, then he looked up. He gently placed his cello on the ground and walked down the steps; I didn't even notice that there were steps.
I stood as he walked towards me feeling foolish as multiple tears started down my cheek. I grabbed my napkin in attempt to fix myself up and held my hand out to him.
"Oh my God, that was amazing, I can't believe that I am actually meeting you right now, this is one of the best days of my life. Oh no, I'm rambling, sorry, but I'm just so excited!" Yo-Yo Ma laughed at me and shook his head.
"You're fine, don't be sorry. Now I know you know who I am, but I'm not sure who you are."
"Of course, my name is Christine Dylon and this, "Seth was standing up with me, "is my soul-mate, Seth Clearwater."
"Nice to meet the both of you."
"Would you mind if I took a picture with you?" Yo-Yo Ma shook his head and I pulled out my camera. Right on time, Cameron came out and took a picture with all three of us, and then one of just me and Yo-Yo Ma. For the next fifteen minutes I talked with him about what my dreams were concerning the cello and about all of the music that we've played; he even suggested a few pieces fro me to try out. When he saw out Cameron come in with out food he said that it was time for him to go.
"Well, I do not want to interrupt the rest of your date, or for that food to go bad, it sounds delicious."
"Thank- you for coming to play for us, I really appreciate it." He looked at me for a second before taking my hand and placing his fingerless gloves in my palm. Then he took out a white pen from his jacket and signed- never lose motivation Yo-Yo Ma- He smiled squeezed my hand and then went back up the stairs, onto the stage, and the wall closed. I started at it for a second before turning my full attention towards Seth. Had he done all this just for me? He wasn't interested in Yo-Yo Ma, he got nothing from this.
"I don't know what to say, thank-you is too much of an understatement."
"Just keep that smile on your face and that's all I need."
"What about this?" I leaned out of my chair slightly and kissed him on his full and powerful lips.
"That works too!" He smiled and kissed my quickly on my lips again.
"Okay, I'm hungry now." I laughed at his honesty and we started eating.
"So ho was class last night? Was Mrs. Hastings' still giving you those weird looks?" Yes, Mrs. Hastings' had continued with those awkward moments but I mean I was use to them now. At first I though that he borderline perverted, and so did Seth, but after the multiple tutoring sessions I've had with him, as well as regular class, I'd reasoned that if he was a pervert that he would have done something by now.
"Yeah, but he's just weird, he's not a creeper."
"Fine, but you'd tell me I he did anything right?"
"Yes."
"Okay so by time you finish with him you will be ready for the chemistry regents and the class final?"
"Most definitely, I'm starting to understand it a lot more, but enough about me, what about you?"
"I'm great." I stared at him with a "come on" type look and he laughed.
"Seriously, and I'll be even better once we find those vamps. I can't have you being attacked by some random vamps." Even though I knew Seth could protect me and would, I still felt a little off when I remembered the attack. I tried to hide it, but when I felt Seth's foot tap mine, I knew that I hadn't. I smiled up at him.
"How did you even get Yo-Yo Man here, how did you even find this place, it's marvelous."
"I would say that I have connections, and I do but only one, Edward."
"Edward's like your mentor, your Zoda, your Mr. Meagi." He laughed.
"Yeah, you could say that, but I don't go to him for everything, only the things I'm not sure about. Sometimes I think that I am sure and he proves me wrong." I thought what Edward did for Seth and what Seth has done for Edward was nice, it kind of reminded me of a father and son relationship and since Seth's father died maybe Edward kept him together.
"Like what?"
"When you were in Florida and I heard about that jerk Laurent, I instantly shifted and took off straight home to pack my bags and go protect you. Edward was already at my house when I got there. He had ordered my tickets and arranged for me to stay at the hotel with Leah. I hadn't even thought of any of that, I was just so angry."
"You're too good to be true Seth, I love you." I watched his eyes light up.
"You must if you introduce me as your soul mate." I blushed as I took a bite of my string beans.
"Stop making me blush or I swear my cheeks are going to stay red." He just laughed at me. Within the next few minutes we were both finished eating and Cameron was escorting us back to the car. The ride home was quiet, but not awkward or uncomfortable, it was as if we were both consumed in our own thoughts. I could feel his eyes on me a few times and I would feel butterflies consume my stomach. I wanted him to pull over and kiss me senseless like he had earlier, but he pulled my hand into his and tortured me the whole car ride rubbing my hand. By time we pulled back to his house it was around 9:30pm and I was hot. I really didn't think he knew what his touches could do to me. I was opening the door to get out when he reached over me and closed it back. I felt so warm and protected with him reaching over me. I looked towards him, ready to devour his lips, and he knew it.
"Wait here for one second and I'll be right back." His eyes got darker as he swallowed. He got out of the car and grabbed my bag from the trunk. As soon as he went through the door I took out my mirror and checked my make-up. My mascara wasn't so strong so I added more as well as put on some chap-stick. My hair was still holding the curls so I just took out some of the bobby pins so all of my hair was out. About a minute later Seth appeared outside and was at my door, helping me get out. He closed it behind me and led me to the door. As soon as I walked inside there was a path of deep red rose petals on the floor. I looked up at Seth completely amused; if he surprised me anymore today I was going to pass out. He kissed me on my cheek and noted for me to keep going. I continued to follow the rose petals until they stopped at a door, his door. I opened it slowly and saw even more petals surrounding his entire floor, I felt as if I were in a dream. His room was cleaned and there were candles on his dresser that smelled like honey and caramel.
"Seth," I yet again I was caught speechless, "I-I don't know what to say." He had moved in front so he was facing me with his dark navy eyes.
"Hmmm," he wrapped his hands around my waist and pulled me closer to him. His eyes were piercing into mine, "you can say that you love me."
"You know that I love you."
"Yeah but I love when you say it."
"I love you, I love you, I lov-" Before I could finish I found myself caught in his lips. It was so unexpected that a moan slipped from my mouth and Seth just kissed me harder and parted his lips; our tongues wrestled with passion. Seth started to back up and I followed. When he sat down on the edge of the bed I lifted my dress so I could wrap my legs around his waist. I automatically felt him growing hard against me. Seth's hands moved down to my ass and squeezed it gently before going under my dress and trying to pull it off. I pulled away for a second.
"It's not going to come off like that," I was out of breath, "you have to unzip it from the back."
"I could just rip it off." A devilish smile took over his face and it made me wet at my core.
"I like this dress."
"But I like your body better." His grin grew as he held eye contact with me and started to slowly unzip the dress, caressing my skin as he did so, torturing me. I moaned lightly as I urgently put my lips on his. Once it was fully zippered down he moved his hands to the bottom of the dress and lifted it off me completely; I was only wearing my strapless bra and under ware. Nessie insisted that they be red, so they were. Seth started at me, looking completely lost. I started to unbutton his black, collared shirt and ran my hand across his strong, built chest. He let out a heavy sigh and threw the shirt completely off before laying back and pulling me with him. I felt a little uneasy being on top, because the person on top usually knew what they were doing, I was just going based on what I've heard and read in my romance novels. I guess Seth knew because suddenly he flipped over so he was on top. I laughed lightly and he kissed the corners of my mouth and started to leave a hot trail of kisses down my neck and around my collar bone. They way he used his tongue had me moaning again. When his lips reached the valley of my breasts I could feel Seth's breath pick up. He used his mouth to unclip the bra from the front and slid the bra from under me. Not skipping a beat, I felt that tongue of his twist around my hard nipple. If my panties weren't already wet, they sure as hell were now.
Seth's POV
My tongue attacked the nipples of her full breasts. She moaned as I lightly bit and kissed around each one before completely engulfing as much of her breast into my mouth.
"Seeeeeth." She moaned my name and it pushed me further. As I pounced on the other breast I moved one of my hands down into her under ware. Her core was already soaking with those sweet juices that I'd been dreaming about for months. Slowly I massaged each lip before forcing my finger inside while still attacking her chest. Her body was shaking from pleasure.
"Ahhhh, SEEEEEETH!" She screamed my name and moaned uncontrollably. Her hands wrapped their way around me and her nails dug into my skin. I pushed my fingers in and out and I could feel her ready to climax. She started tightening around my fingers and then she screamed as she released. I pulled my fingers out of her and made sure she watched as I brought it to my mouth and swallowed.
"Damn, you taste so good!" Cristy stared at me, her expression a mix of emotions, love, lust, amusement, excitement, passion, and more that I couldn't even name.
"You…" She just stared at me and but her hands in my hair, she was catching her breath.
"I what?"
"You do things to me."
"Well, I have a lot more things to do to you." A devilish smile quickly made it's way across Cristy's beautiful face and she moved her hands down to my belt un-buckling it. My shaft, that was already hard, got harder when she grabbed me in her hands. She laughed and my lips forced down on hers. She groped me again and I moaned powerlessly
"Do you like that Seth." She asked seductively against my lips. I was shocked by this change in personality. I had never seen Cristy act like this before, risky, straight forward, but I loved it.
"I can't hear you." She squeezed me a little harder and I just moaned pitifully, I was at her will.
"Hmm baby?" I pulled my lips down to her neck and sucked it like a lollipop.
"Yesss." I moaned like a wounded animal, which, basically, I was. She started to push my pants down and I helped her, quickly pulling away from her to take them off. Her eyes grew at the sight of me and she blushed when she saw that I was watching her. I flipped over so she was on top. Suddenly I felt her mouth on my ears and I knew I was a goner; she had to know how she affected me. Cristy's tongue caressed by ear as she whispered the things on her mind into it.
"Seeeth you make me so wet. You walk into the room and I'm drenched. I swear you don't know the definition of a wet dream. I've had to many about you" I was so hard for her and only her
"DAMN IT!" Before she could even move to the next ear I had flipped over again and moved my mouth to her under ware and pulled them down keeping eye contact with her. She watched as I kissed up her thigh and then plunged my tongue into her sweet, sweet core. I winked at her and she threw her head back as her hands pushed into my hair. She started thrusting towards me, letting me know she was ready, but I wasn't yet, I needed more of her passionate juices.
"Seeeeeth….mmmmmmmmmmm…baby I love you. SEEEEEEEEETHHHHHHH." She was screaming now and I was ready to give in. I grabbed a condom off my dresser and, as quickly as I could I put it on and slowly inserted myself into her. I intently watched Cristy for any expressions of pain or discomfort but there were none I slid in so smoothly, as if we were the perfect fit for each other. Cristy and I moaned as we felt ourselves connect in the most sensual way. Then I pumped into her trying to create out on rhythm and we became sync.
"Seeeeeeethhhhhhh…..baby….harder, harder, don't stop….please don't stop!" Continuous moans flowed from her mouth as I pumped her as fast and as hard as I could. My mind was all over the place as she tightened around me, keeping me going. I screamed her name as I climaxed and she screamed my own as she released. I felt her juices surround me and I pushed a few more times before I fell to my sides, still inside Cristy. I could feel my heart beating and my soul literally felt like it was flying. This women lying in front of me made me feel so many things, so many true emotions, I loved her and was obsessed with the way she made me feel. We breathed hard trying to catch out breaths, but of course I was fine before she was. I watched my beautiful Cristy as her bare chest rose and settled and her nipples became erect. I was ready to go again.
I woke up and stretched lightly trying not to wake her up. Cristy and I basically made love all night long, we took a few naps but as soon as I looked at her or saw her, or simply sensed her presence, I was instantly turned on. Having sex with Cristy was the best thing in the world; I swear I could live off of her body and be fine. Cristy was currently wrapped in my arms; her head was lying on my chest and her legs were entwined in my own; I was still inside her. I was obsessed with the warmth and tightness that her body supplied me with. Cristy might not have known it but she was a freakin' sexual demon. Just how I had eaten her out, she went down on me. For a virgin…for anyone, she was a pro. And the way she taunted me was so damn sexy. It was obvious that she had quickly grown become comfortable started trying new things; I just enjoyed them. It was around 10am and she'd been sleeping since around 6am, I was fully awake, as well as fully aware that he chest was pressed up against mine. I couldn't help myself, I was growing inside her, so I gently pulled out.
Would Cristy be hungry when she finally woke up? Of course she would, I mean who wouldn't be and that could also give her some energy for the activities that will follow….. I smiled and I, as gently as I could, and got out of the bed. She fidgeted and turned her body so her back was now facing me; I put my boxers on. I left the room and went into the kitchen. Hmmmmm, what would Cristy want? Chocolate covered strawberries; that would be fun; I let my mind wander for a second but then stopped; chocolate covered strawberries wouldn't do anything. Okay toast with butter and some fruit; yes, I've definitely seen her eat that before. I took the fruit salad and the butter out of the fridge and put the bread in the toaster. When it was done I buttered the toast, put the fruit on the plate and bought it into my room. As I walked back into the kitchen to get Cristy something to drink I could hear her yawn and the sheets moving around; she was waking up. I quickly poured the orange juice in the cup and ran went back to my love. She was sitting up with her back against the headboard and playing with her hair. She turned her head when she saw me.
"Hi Seth, good morning." Cristy's smile made my heart beat pick up.
"Good morning, how do you feel?"
"Honestly, I feel really soar." I watched her lips as they moved; they were obviously swollen from all of the kissing that we had done last night, and this morning, but I still wanted to kiss them. I shifted my eyes to her hair, which she was still playing with, and I knew she wouldn't like it if she saw it but I thought is was perfectly out of place; she looked wild and sexy. When she started to blush and looked down smiling I realized that I had been staring at her for too long. I laughed lightly.
"Cristy are you hungry?"
"Yeah, a little." I passed her the toast, the fruit salad and the orange juice and she smiled harder.
"Thank you." I got back into the bed with her as she ate.
"Do you want some?"
"Some of you, yes, the food, I think I can wait." She blushed even harder and smiled as she shook her head lightly.
I couldn't wait any longer; as she ate I started to kiss her cheek and her neck.
"Seth!" She laughed, amused by my impatience.
"Hmm?" She laughed harder and I looked up; I loved her face when she laughed like this.
"Come on Seth, if you share it with me I'll be done faster." I immediately sat up and started to pick at her fruit.
"I discovered something about you Cristy." She looked at me still smiling.
"What did you discover about me Seth?"
"You might be a lady in the street, but you're a freak in the bed." I wasn't giving her a break with the blushing today.
"Really, is that what you noticed?" She took a bit of her toast and sipped her orange juice. I nodded.
"Well do you know what I noticed?" I smiled up at her; I honestly wasn't expecting a comeback, only the blushing.
"No, what did you notice." Now I was amused.
"I noticed that when I moan the word baby that you go into a frenzy."
"No I don't." I didn't do that, did I? Probably, everything she did made me crazy.
"Baby yes you do." She moaned the whole sentence and I could suddenly feel myself growing again. Cristy just laughed as she gently kissed my cheek. She placed her food on the nightstand and got up with the sheet.
"Hey, where are you going?"
"I'm going to take a shower."
"Oh, no you're not." I grabbed Cristy's hand pulling her on top of me and the sheet fell off of her. She laughed as she put her hands around my neck. I felt her legs wrap around my waist and her chest press against mine before I caught her lips. I placed my hands on her back, gently making patterns on her skin with my fingers.
"You know one of the things I love doing?" She pulled away from my lips smiling.
"What?"
"Going down on you and eating you out so hard and long that the only thing that you will be able to do is moan my name." She moaned lightly. The look on her face was a new; I had never seen that expression before but I sure as hell liked it. She look my hand and gently brought it down to her core. I could already feel the sweet juices forming.
"That's all you Seth, only you can turn me on like this."
"Fuck Cristy." I pulled her lips back to mine urgently; I missed her tongue in my mouth. Her full lips moved with mine and our tongues collided with pure desire. When I kissed Cristy it was like another world; anything that wasn't her didn't exist and. I could only hear, see, touch, and taste her. So, when Cristy pulled away saying that she heard something I was completely lost.
"What?"
"Seth I heard something; it sounded like a knock." I tried to clam self down and relax to put myself back into the real world.
"There is goes again." That time I heard it. I growled lightly as Cristy pulled off of me grabbing the sheet. I quickly threw my sweats and robe on then went to open the door.
"Hey sweetie, sorry, I didn't mean to wake you but I lost the key?" Mom? I could have passed out; I swear my face went white. I could hear Cristy whisper fu** under her breath and that was exactly what I was thinking.
"Seth, honey, are you okay?" I cleared my throat. I could see her looking around, trying to see the inside.
"Are those rose petals covering the floor?" My heart started racing, I didn't know what to say.
"No." She tried to push her way through me but I topped her.
"Seth, what the hell is going on in there?"
"Mom, can you come back in like an hour?"
"No. Seth, are you having sex in my house?"
"No, why would you think that?" She glared at me as her faced turned an evil shade of red.
"Seth God DAMN Clearwater!" She pushed past me and stared at all the flower petals on the floor. There was a tight not in my throat, and I was in panic mode but I think what was going on was too obvious to try to hide and lie about at this point. All I could do was pray that she didn't try to get in the way of me and Cristy. She followed the rose petals to my door. My mom looked at me with the same infuriated expression
"Is that dirty whore of yours in here?" My mom's words infuriated me.
"Cristy isn't a whore, and why are you even freaking out? I told you about the girl I lost my virginity to, and you were fine, why are you acting out now?" She opened the door, not answering my question, and immediately saw Cristy, who was now fully dressed in jeans and a white top. The look on Cristy's face tug at my heart, she looked hurt and I knew it was my mom's fault.
"Hello Cristy!" With obvious discomfort, Cristy responded.
"Hi, Mrs. Clearwater."
"I'm going to need for you to take all of your stuff and take your dirty little ass out of my house." Cristy looked down and I could see a single tear stream down her face. If my mom thought she was angry, she hadn't seen angry.
"Mom, do not talk to her like that.
"Who do you think you're talking to Seth, do not forget that I'm your mother. I held you for a full term pregnancy and raised you! Watch your tone!" I sighed; she always pulled that point out when we got into an argument.
"No mom! I don't know what's wrong with you today, but this girl right here is my imprint I love her and I will not let anyone, including my mother, talk to her like that!" Suddenly I felt her hard hand smack across my face. I was to shocked to react, I just stared at her, and she still held her angry glare.
"Oh God, umm I'll just go. I didn't want any of this to happen, I'm so sorry." I watched as Cristy grabbed her bag and ran out of the door. I caught her arm.
"Cristy, please don't go."
"Seth, you have a mother who loves you, and you love her, I don't want to break that up."
"Cris-" She cut me off.
"No Seth." She sighed as another tear slipped from her eye; my heart was breaking. Cristy pulled from my arm and walked out of my room.
"Cristy please wait." She paused at the door and I turned to my mother.
"Mom, if you've just ruined our relationship," I paused not even wanting to imagine it, "If I can't fix this, you sure as hell better!"
"Seth, you don't need her, you can do so much better." She yelled that out intentionally and a second later I heard my front door open and the door close.
"Cristy!" I ran out of my room and outside, she was walking up the block; I ran in front of her.
"Cristy, my mom didn't mean any of that. You met her before at the barbeque; I don't know why she's acting out." She looked up at me with a hurt expression. She was too good of a person to be called a whore or dirty.
"Stay, I'll work this out with her right now."
"No Seth, I can't be there while you try to fix it, every time she looked at me she'd just get angrier." She was probably right, but I just wasn't ready to let her out of my sight.
"Can you at least let me drop you home?" She was about to say no, but I grabbed her hand and started walking towards the car.
"I'm taking you home." I opened the door and she got in. The drive to her house was awkward and silent; I knew she was hurting and I felt guilty. She asked me to drop her a few houses from her house just incase her parents were leaving. I did and she got out saying goodbye and giving me a faint smile. I watched to make sure that she got in her house, and then took off back to mine; I had a lot to talk about with my mom. I got my house and she wasn't there. I went into my room and called her from my cell phone, but she wouldn't answer, I called Charlie next, but he said that my mom wasn't home. I took this as a good sign. I needed to calm down some before I spoke to her again or else I would have said some things I didn't mean out of frustration. I sat in my bed as Cristy scent filled my nostrils and with that, the memories of last night. I knew I couldn't call her until I spoke to my mom, but that's all I wanted to do, hear her voice. I noticed a blood stain on the sheets, from Cristy. At one point I had forgotten that she was a virgin, all of the stuff she was doing….. I stopped myself from thinking about it too much by throwing the sheets into the washing machine; the blanket still had her alluring scent so I sat in the den and placed it on the couch. I couldn't help but think that this was ultimately my fault. My mom came every Sunday, but it was usually around five in the afternoon I hadn't expected her to just show up like that. I had planned to invite Cristy back to my house tonight to eat dinner with my mom and I; I guess that wasn't going to happen.
