After they left I went inside and got my keys and helmet, my clothes were in boxes in my living room, nothing would make me feel better than to go find someone to race. I walked outside after I had wiped my eyes good, but there were three very large werewolves and one pissed off Sam in my front yard.
"Why does it smell like vampire around here?" He looked pissed. "The Cullens came by, they-" I was quickly interrupted by Sam, "What do you mean came by? I thought you said they were gone!" He was starting to piss me off. " They came by to tell me they were leaving. For good. They aren't coming back. EVER!" I shouted. I could feel the tears pooling in my eyes but I couldn't hold them in. I sank to my knees as sobs shook my body.
Suddenly I felt two very warm arms wrap around my shoulders. I looked up and noticed that boy from earlier, Embry. He was trying to calm me down. Saying things like 'shh' and 'please don't cry'. It was the most anyone had done for me yet. I quickly wrapped my arms around his torso as I cried into his chest.
After a few moments I pulled away from him and took a long look at his face. He was beautiful, but not in the vampire way I was so used to. "I'm sorry for getting you all wet." I said a little shaky, as tears ran down my cheeks, though they were no longer accompanied by sobs. "Heh… don't worry about it. But do me a favor, please don't cry anymore. Someone as beautiful as you shouldn't be crying." He said as he wiped the tears from my cheeks. He was so sweet, and kind and HOT. In both senses of the word.
He took my hand and helped me stand up. Sam and the others were looking everywhere except at us. I think it was their way of giving us some privacy. I delved into their minds and asked them to join me inside. I assured them that the Cullens had not been inside. They agreed after a moment of hesitation.
I began to pull away from Embry to go inside but he caught my hand and laced our fingers together. I felt a shock go up my arm. I looked at our hands, they fit together perfectly, then I looked up at him. He was looking down at me intensely with one of the widest smiles I had ever seen. I was sure his face would break in two any minute. I smiled back at him and gave his hand a small squeeze before turning and showing everyone inside.
Soon everyone was seated helter-skelter around the room. I stood up and asked everyone if they would like some sweet tea. They nodded and I left the room to get it. I knew by the awkward silence that followed me that I would be the topic of discussion, so I tapped into their minds to see what they were thinking.
There were so many random thoughts that I was getting a headache, so I quickly left their minds. I noticed that Jasper's power was starting to kick in. I usually tried to avoid his power by not letting him use it on me but he had earlier today. I always had the most trouble out of his power. It wasn't like the other powers and I never knew when it was going to kick in. And as always I was stunned at all the emotions that surrounded me. I walked in to the living room and began to hand out the glasses of tea when I accidentally touched Paul's hand. Almost instantly I was overcome. When I first got Jasper's power I also had Edward's and Alice's. I made the mistake of hugging Bella and that's when I first found out that powers don't like to mix. I felt and saw and heard everything she thought in every one of her memories. I went through the first time she met Edward and when she first touched his hand. I went through everything, it was great, until I passed out at least.
That's the same thing that was happening now. I was in everyone of Paul's memories. The first time he 'shifted', and even when his dad left. He was so torn up for days. The he became angry, always angry. I felt it before it happened as I began to black out, someone grabbed a part of my arm that wasn't covered and then I was lead into another path of memories. Luckily I passed out before I saw anything.
