"She´s just a friend!"

Just great, Thursday afternoon and at home alone. Sarah had gone out on a date and Amy had gone to the library.

We had been meeting with the Cullens during the whole week. It was taking Amy everything she had not to tell Seth why we were meeting with them. I knew it hurt her seeing Seth so sad. It hurt Sarah too that Brady was also suffering but seeing as she was a cold hearted bitchy she acted as if she didn't care.

I knew Sarah really liked Brady a lot and that she was just going on these dates to try and forget him. She was scared of liking someone so much because last time that idiot Isaac had hurt her.

God, why didn´t she let me kill him? Well, I knew the damage had already been made but it would´ve made ME feel a whole lot better.

Every night, when we came home after being with the Cullens, there were always wolfs hiding behind the bush in our backyard. I just wanted to scream and throw them a shoe. Hello? We can see you! We knew they were there. It was impossible not to see them, I mean, they´re huge. I wonder when they´re gonna tell us that they´re werewolves seeing as Seth and Brady have to tell them what imprint means.

I just hope that they tell us they´re secret before we tell them ours. I haven´t talked with anyone of the pack in this whole week. I missed them a lot. I hope they´re not mad but I can´t blame them if they are. Vampires are they´re natural enemy, we´re pretty much betraying them. I just wish could them everything but, we needed to get to know them a bit better before saying anything.

Well, as I was saying, I was at home getting bored but then I thought I could go and get some souvenirs seeing as I was to go and visit my sister pretty soon, so I got dressed and drove to a souvenir shop that was on the beach. I went in; it had started raining, AGAIN.

"Hi." I said.

"Hello." The women said kindly. I got a few mugs, t-shirts and postcards to give to my sister so that she could give them to my parents.

"That will be thirty dollars." The women said." You´re new here, right?" She asked.

"Um… yeah, my name´s Elena Martinez." I said.

"Tiffany Call." She said. Oh, Embry´s mother. She must´ve seen the look on my face because she asked:

"You know Embry?"

"Yeah, I met him thanks to Paul Lahote, in the diner." I said. She frowned. "I´m sorry, have I said something wrong?" I asked.

"Oh, of course not dear, I just… I don´t exactly like Natalie." She said.

"Oh, I understand I mean, she´s a bitc…a bad girl." I said correcting my mistake. Ms. Call giggled and smiled at me brightly.

"That´s exactly why I do not like him being around her." Ms. Call said. I smiled at her sadly, I didn´t like it either. Suddenly, lightning struck and the light went out.

"Damn it!" Tiffany said as she started to open drawers trying to find a flashlight, but she didn´t. There were only matches. "Would mind helping me to the switch? It´s just that it´s a bit… dark." She said sheepishly.

"Sure." I said grabbing the match and turning it on. I followed her to the switch which was in the basement.

There were a lot of boxes on the floor and it was hard to move around, when she finally turned the light back on I turned around and found myself nose to nose with a stuffed bear, but in my defense I didn´t know that it was stuffed so I got scared and dropped the match, then I tried to grab it and burnt my whole palm. Finally, Ms. Call took the match out of my hand and turned it off.

We looked at each other and started laughing until Ms. Call saw my palm.

"Oh my god! Your palm!" she gasped. I looked at it. It looked really bad, well, seeing as I had tried to grab a match with it, it was normal.

"I´m sorry! I got scared cause of the bear." I apologized.

"Oh dear don´t be silly. I should take you to the hospital… but I came walking." She said.

"That´s okay, I came in my car." I said. She nodded and we went upstairs. She closed the store and we went to the hospital in the Reservation.

"Thank you very much for accompanying me." I said while I was taking her home after having gone out to have dinner.

She was a really nice woman. Sometimes I had even forgotten that she was Embry´s mother, SOMETIMES. Mostly I couldn´t forget about it because she told me a lot of embarrassing situations that Embry had found himself in when he was little. They were hilarious!

"It was nothing. I had a very good time." She said smiling. I stopped in front of her house. "I hope to see you again Elena." She said as she hugged me.

"So do I." I said smiling and hugging her back. I waved goodbye and saw her open the door just as a person was coming out. Embry. As I was driving away I could hear they´re conversation.

"Who was that?" Embry asked.

"You know her, her name is Elena. " Ms. Call said.

"What were you doing with her?" he asked nervously.

" She came to buy some souvenirs but the light went out in the store, so I asked her to come with me to turn it back on, but when we did turn it back on Elena found herself nose to nose with the stuffed bear in the basement, she got scared, she dropped the match and burnt herself." Ms. Call finished.

"Is she okay?" Embry asked. I couldn´t help but notice the worried tone in which he said it. God, he was cute!

"Yes, but she´s got some first degree burns. Have you been with Natalie today?" She asked.

"Yes mom. Are we going to have this discussion every night? She´s just a friend!" Embry said.

"Anyway, what exactly did you two talk about?" he asked. I heard Ms. Call giggle and that´s it because I could no longer hear they´re conversation. A smile crept on my lips as I drove home.

"Hey Elena." Amy said as I walked in." The Cullens have cancelled tonight because they have to go hunting… what happened to your hand?" She asked. I explained everything to her and she laughed with some of the stories I told her about Embry.

"Where´s Sarah?" I asked her.

"She´s still on her date but she hooked up with another guy Josh which I believe is in your history class. Her date didn´t seem to mind seeing as he was already getting into another girl´s pants." Amy said.

"How did your date go?" I asked.

"Vomitive. Dude was an idiot." She said.

"What about Seth? Have you seen him?" I asked. She blushed as she shook her head. I smiled.

"Do you feel anything for Embry?" She asked. Her question took me by surprise. I had been sure that I had closed my mind while thinking about him, apparently not…

"I´m… not sure." I said. She nodded. We put a movie on and waited for Sarah to arrive.

When she did she was smiling.

"What are you so happy about?" I asked.

"Brady saw me with Josh." She said happily.

"What did he do?" Amy asked as I called Sarah a bitch.

"Nothing. He stared at us for a moment and then left with Collin and Seth on his tail." She said.

"You´re a really bad person, you know that right?" Amy said. Sarah shrugged.

The three of us got changed into our pajamas and got into bed.

A question stayed in my mind during the whole night: Did I feel anything for Embry?

I had the answer: Of course. I barley even knew him but I was sure that I was falling for the werewolf called Embry Call. Shit!
