OK, so I got a few guest reviews on this chapter...
yourstruely: you wasted 45 minutes reading, did you? Well, no one asked you to read this. So, if you don't like it, well that's not really my problem is it? There are plently of people who do.
One person reviewed, saying that I remove all negative review, but didn't leave a name. It's not secret I moderate reviews. If someone posts a negative review, I still post it as long as it isn't abusive. I don't mind if someone says they don't like it, that's there opinion. If I don't like a story, I don't read it. I don't complain to the author. Simple
Now that I got that out. Here's the chapter
I looked at the map, where would we go next?
"So, where are we going?"
I looked at Lucas, who had his arm around Melody. We were moving, but we needed to figure out where we could go.
"I'm not sure. What do you 2 think?"
Lucas and Melody looked at one another and back at me.
"Hayley, I know a small town, Forks. We could lay low for a while. I don't think there's another pack there. We need a place like that. We can't exactly do much damage to another shifter. We're silver foxes, we're not exactly big."
I nodded, we needed somewhere like that.
"That sounds good. I'll get everything ready."
They smiled and Lucas kissed Melody's cheek. He imprinted on her a few years ago, and they've been together ever since. Lucas was my brother, and I was happy for him. I just wished that I could find mine. Lucas had to bite her, so she would become a silver fox shifter. He didn't want to lose her and after a Hell of debate, she agreed. It wasn't that she didn't want to. Lucas didn't want to hurt her. And there are a few more things female shifters have to go through, but never mind that, they seem to like the house.
"Thanks Hayley. Need any help?"
I shook my head, and started organising the move. We needed somewhere to stay and after looking at countless places, I found a nice place, it was in the forest, and there was only one house near it. But, that was far enough away that it wouldn't cause problems.
"Lucas! Mel! I found a place."
I showed them what I'd found and they loved it. It was exactly what we needed.
"That's great Hayley. I'm gonna go pack. Come on, you can help."
She dragged a groaning Lucas with her and I laughed. Sure, Melody was perky, but he loved her.
A few days later, we were standing in front of our new place. It was huge and had 5 bedrooms. We only needed 2, but the extra 3 would come in handy for whatever we needed them for. Lucas loved music, so one would probably used for that.
"So, what do you think?"
They nodded, looking at me. Melody seemed pretty excited.
"It's great Hayley, it's just what we need."
I smiled at Melody, walking into the house. They followed me and looked around. Everything was here, thanks to me spending hours organising everything. They really owed me for this.
"Hayley, how-"
"You owe me for this. I spent hours organising everything for this place."
They seemed surprised and thanked me for everything I did for them. We walked upstairs, and started unpacking. I could hear Melody and Lucas bickering and shook my head laughed.

"No."
"Come on! It'll be fun!"
I shook my head, looking at Alice. She was trying to drag me shopping. Again. We already went and had everything we could possibly need. My dad knew they were back, but he didn't know about Alice and I. He knew about imprinting, thanks to Billy, telling him about the pack. That was awkward.
Alice sat on my bed, glaring at me. It didn't work, she just looked cute.
"And looking at me like that, just makes me want to do this."
I leaned over and kissed her. She got a little flustered, and smiled at me.
"Fine. What do you want to do then?"
"Want to go to the meadow?"
She seemed surprised. I like spending time with her there.
"Sure."
I grabbed a jacket and looked at her.
"Hey, why don't we ask Rosalie and Bret to come with us?"
Alice nodded, and we walked out.
Rosalie and Bret were downstairs, on the couch. They smiled when they saw us.
"Hey, we're going for a walk. Wanna come with us?"
Rosalie started to shake her head, but Bret answered me.
"We'd love to. Where are you going?"
"Up to the meadow."
Bret and Rosalie followed us, as we walked out of the house. Bret and I laughed as Rosalie started bickering with Alice. I shook my head watching them.
"Are they always like this?"
Bret laughed, watching them.
"Yeah, for as long as I've known them, they've been like this. Why? Weren't they... Never mind, sorry."
I shook my head, looking at Alice and Rosalie. They hadn't been that bad.
"It's OK. They weren't this bad. Alice, leave Rosalie alone!"
Rosalie started teasing her about her height. That annoyed her, and... Well, lets just say she doesn't like that.
They looked back at me, Rosalie was laughing and Alice ... That damn pout. She know it turns me to mush. Bret laughed, watching us.
"Try not murder your sister please. I don't think Bret would be very happy about that."
Bret walked over to Rosalie, shaking her head.
"Be nice to your sister. Come on."
Bret grabbed Rosalie's hand, dragging her to the meadow. I looked at Alice, who was smiling. I shook my head, looking at her.
'She started it.'
Wait ... What? Was I hearing what she was thinking.
"Alice, we you just thinking that she started it?"
She looked at me, surprised. She nodded, taking a step towards me.
"Yeah ... Can you-"
"Yeah, I can."
Hearing my answer through the link surprised her. She smiled, but I could see she was shocked.
"I thought you said that this probably wouldn't happen?"
I shrugged. This particular ability was unpredictable, and hard to predict.
"It's hard to predict, really. There's no way to know if it's going to happen or not. It's not being able to sense your emotions, there's more to this."
Alice nodded, coming a little closer to me. She grabbed my hand, smiling at me.
"You'll get used to it. You'll figure out how to block it out eventually, or at least narrow the connection. It's different for everyone, when it comes to that."
She was shocked, but I didn't need the imprint to tell me that.
"We'll figure it out. Come on, before the start looking for us."
She dragged me to the meadow, literally. Bret and Rosalie laughed, when they same us. We sat next to them, smiling. I really wanted to phase, and Alice sensed this.
"You can phase if you want Bella, it's OK. None of us mind. Right?"
Rosalie and Bret shook their heads and I phased, laying my head on my paws and closing my eyes. They laughed and Alice reached over and scratched my head. I opened my eyes, looking at the other two. They weren't sure whether they should do that.
"Tell them, that I don't mind."
Alice looked at the other 2, smiling.
"She said to tell you that you don't have to be afraid to touch her, when she's like this."
they seemed surprised and looked at Alice, confused.
"It's part of the imprint. I can hear why she's thinking when she's like this. She wanted you to know that she doesn't mind."
Bret was closest to me and reached out top touch me. She seemed nervous, and stopped with her hand in mid-air. I lifted my head, and nudged her hand with my head.
"See? She doesn't mind. Look."
Alice scratched behind my ears, and I nuzzled her hand. The other 2 laughed, and I moved a little closer to them. being smaller than the others was good, when it came to stuff like this.
I looked at Rosalie, who was on the other side of Alice. She shook her head, looking at me. Bret was smiling and Alice was rubbing my back. I ... Well, ever seen a silver fox yawn? Apparently, it's cute. According to Alice anyway. Well, if she hadn't been rubbing my back, I wouldn't been feeling sleepy, would I?
She laughed and stopped. I moved closer to Rosalie, nudging her. OK, I know, I'm trying to annoy her. But, it's fun, sue me.
Alice laughed, looking at us. They could see what I was doing, and thought it was funny. Rosalie shook her head. She reached out and rubbed the top of my head.
"Now, happy?"
"Who is this, and what have they done with Rosalie?"
Alice laughed, and other two looked at her.
"You don't want to know."
They left, and I saw the look on Bret's face. Alice shook her head, looking at Bret.
"Bret!"
She laughed, looking at Alice. I didn't need to ask, to know what she was thinking.
'I'm going to get her for that.'
"I don't want to know."
I started thinking about how Alice had teased me. I needed to get her back for that. I was more comfortable around Alice, and wasn't uncomfortable with her knowing when I got ... Excited. I considered a few things, but I had the perfect idea of how to get her back.

OK, you're probably confused, but this is going somewhere I promise.
