MADDY'S POV
(Just after Tara left school)
I didn't know that La Push high had a music group, I wonder if they have an art club to!? I was going to question Danielle about this but she gave me one of those looks that said 'Ask anything and you will die, I'll explain later'.
She has a lot of those looks and last time I ignored one I ended up ruining her big surprise for Dillon and let's just say that all of my art supplies went missing for a week or two and came back in less in then perfect condition.
Danielle and I waved goodbye to the guys and made our way over to our car. Once in side she turned up the radio, guess I will have to wait for my explanation.
She's out of luck and out of hope and out of cigarettes
misunderstood with naked pictures on the internet
her social deviance is teasing me I know what I want
and I'm really gonna really let her know (woah)
that I like her but I just don't care enough
to fool around with love
yeah my babies pretty as a car crash
sexy as the stinger of a hornet in your arm
just another modern swinger
screaming catch me if you can with a cigarette in hand
and it's love
its heavy and it hurts and its love
Finally Danielle turned the music down, "Ok I am only going to explain this once and you can not tell the guys! Got it?" I nodded; I figure this has something to do with a guy, "Ok well you know how Tara said she was going to a music club thing?" I nodded again, "well that was a lie, see she got this project she needs to work on but her partner is not someone Travis would want her near let alone going over to his house."
"Who's her partner?" It was hard to guess since there are a lot of guys Travis don't want her near, like every male in the school for that matter. He is way to over protective; we will have to work on that.
"Remember at lunch when Travis was talking about that gang? And Tara went to ask that guy of he had been in any fights today?"
I remembered that guy, he was some hot but also so big he could step on me at the same time, "Yea, the huge guy at the other table…Wait, is he her partner?!"
"Yup, why else would I have mentioned him? Anyway, as you can tell she didn't inform Travis of where she was going so we need to make sure he doesn't find out. I know he will be beyond pissed off about being lied to plus the fact that she is at some guy's house just makes it even worse. So no talkie about it, got it?" Her voice was almost pleading; everyone in the family knew that I could only keep secrets when I wanted to. I wanted to keep this secret so no problem there.
"Yup got it!" I said just as we pulled up into the drive way, grabbing my stuff I headed inside and straight up to my room.
I put my school stuff away and walked over to where I kept all of my art stuff, my room needed some more of me in it and I figure that painting parts of it would do the trick. I started painting flowers on the walls, first some lilies, then some roses. I started painting some music notes to, I realized the music notes reminded me of Tara and the flowers Danielle. I decided to paint things that reminded me of the guys to, for Travis I painted the silhouette of someone playing soccer and then one of some one playing hockey too. For Dillon I painted –
"Maddy!! Come on! We are playing a card game and we need you to play!" Dillon yelled up the stairs.
"I need you on my team!" Blake yelled right after him. I am good at cards for some strange reason; they all want me on their team. I smirked, putting my paint brush down and walked over to my door grabbing my cell phone on the way.
"Coming!" I yelled as I walked down the stairs. One thing that is awesome about having a big family that is awesome is that it isn't very hard to listen in on their conversations because they are all so loud.
"Blake, we aren't playing on teams' dude." Travis was trying to explain to Blake that since there was only five us in the house that we couldn't play in teams.
"I know, but come on we all know that cards are not my strong suit!" Ok well he had a point there, Blake sucked at cards unless it was like poker or something.
I walked in to the living room; they were all sited around a table that had three decks of cards on it, "What game you guys wanna play?" I sat down beside Danielle and Blake, he was shuffling the cards.
"Well we were thinking of playing crazy eights, you in?"
"Yea sounds good to me." Blake dealt out the cards and we started to play.
We were all laughing from something Dillon had said when I felt my phone vibrate in my pocket. I took it out, Tara was calling.
"Hey guys I will be right back, I have to take this." I took my phone and walked out of the room and their hearing range too. I flipped open my phone, "Hey Tara."
"Hey Maddy, can you do me a huge favor?"
"Yea sure, what is it?"
"I forgot to feed the dog this morning he must be hungry. Can you hurry and feed him?" Aww yes, the code we made up years ago for when we want some one to pick us up with out us feeling bad about leaving.
"Of course I can, just give me a minute. Talk later Tara."
"Ok bye Maddy and Thanks!" I hung up and made my way back to the living room.
"Hey guys, that was Tara and she asked me to go pick her up from the school so deal me out." I lied without any hesitation, which was a first.
"I might as well come with you, deal me out to." Shit, Travis wanted to come. Think fast Maddy, think!!
"Umm…well you might not want to because well you see…" Think Maddy think! O got it; "On the way we have to make a stop at the drug store…"He stilled looked confused, time to go into detail, "You know to pick up some stuff…. Female stuff... For that time of the month."
His face turned bright red and he sat back down, "Ooo… well then ….I will just stay here…then." He stumbles out his words and I smirked, today was a good day for lying.
TARA'S POV
(From after Embry left her on the road)
Embry wasn't in the woods long, only five minutes or so but I was bored. The side of the road is not a very entertaining place; there weren't even cars to look at. Once he came out of the woods we started walking again, we also started asking another 20 questions.
"What is your favorite sport?" He had already asked me every question you can think of, and I don't play every many sports.
"Umm, probably swimming since that is about the only sport I don't suck at." I didn't ask him any questions since he only wanted to hear my answers.
"What is your middle name?"
"Selene Rose, I have two."
"And here we are and please don't stare at Emily." We were standing out side of a small yellow cottage, it was very charming. I nodded and we walked up the steps to the door Embry held it open for me, once I stepped inside the whole charming outside wasn't close to what I was seeing now.
Every inch had a huge guy in it; they all had to be over 7 feet tall and they all looked like Embry, I thought I had a lot of siblings! There was the girl I saw at lunch, along with the tall girl, and one young girl, probably only 4 or 5. Another girl came out with a tray of cookies in hand, she must be Emily because I could see the three long pink scars that ran down her face and arm, but she was still beautiful.
She walked over and greeted us, offering cookies I said no but Embry might as well have taken the whole plate. I was introduced to everyone, there were 16 people there and as it turns out only this cute kid named Seth and the tall girl named Leah were actually siblings.
Paul came out of the kitchen, dragging me to a room where he said we could work without interruption. The bedroom was tiny but it had enough room for us to work, I pulled out my stuff and we started to work again. Paul still didn't have any taste in music so I played him some songs on my Ipod and asked him what he thought.
He liked most of it but there were some songs he just laughed at, and I can't blame him, those ones sucked. We were working fine, only a few arguments here and there when he came over to look at something and sat beside me on the bed that was in the room.
That's when my mind flashed back to Max.
He moved closer and closer until he was almost in my lap, I didn't mind, like I said he was a brother, some one to be trusted. Or so I thought.
No, this isn't like that…No.
He pushed me backwards on the bed and his hands found their way up my shirt well his lips found mine. I tried to push him off but he was to strong, my head was screaming at me –
I got up, telling him I needed to use the bathroom. With that I felt the room, running to the bathroom, once the door was shut I took out my phone and dialed Maddy's number. I knew Danielle would have told her what was going on. I needed to go home and calm myself down.
"Hey Tara" Yea she knew about where i was, I could tell.
"Hey Maddy, can you do me a huge favor?" I was almost whispering, I didn't want anyone to hear me, I wanted to leave but I would feel bad if I just left.
"Yea sure, what is it?" I hope she remembers the code we made it since I was about to use it.
"I forgot to feed the dog this morning he must be hungry. Can you hurry and feed him?" please remember Maddy please!
"Of course I can, just give me a minute. Talk later Tara." Thank god, she remembered!
"Ok bye Maddy and Thanks!" I hung up, and breathed a sigh of relief. Now all I have to do is go back and wait for her to call and tell me she is on her way because I was needed at home or something stupid. This plan always worked. The only thing that could cause a problem was if she told Travis she was coming to get me because I knew he would want to come, but I am sure she could think of some lie to tell so he wouldn't want to come along.
