Unsuspecting
Chapter Ten
Alex's POV.
Urg. It's Monday. School again today. I hadn't been in over a week because of the whole Embry/imprint thing but I knew I had to go. Even though the school here is behind my old school in England, so I'd already done most of it.
I didn't even have Embry in any of my lessons today.
I had a shower and got dressed. I don't think I'll ever get used to not wearing a uniform for school. My friends back home are really jealous because our old uniform is hideous. I did my hair and makeup quickly and then laid on my bed and talked to Zara on the phone for a while before the boys came to give us a lift to school.
"How's Effie doing?" I asked her.
"Good, she hasn't had a fit since that time Abs had to call you. She was proper mortified when she found out what happened." She said and I sighed.
"I hate it that she thinks we dislike helping her with this." I said.
"I know, hell, I wish I could help her. Her dads a fucking sick bastard." She said and I could practically hear her punching a wall.
"Tell me about it. Did you find out when he gets let out of prison yet?"
"Nah, but I will soon." She said and her breathing regained control. I loved Zara, she was probably my best friend out of all the girls from home. She had a massive bad temper, though. But that probably just makes me like her more. I never get on that much with sweet and innocent girls. Apart from Effie, I've never argued with her. But even Kim, I always end up getting pissed with her.
"I'm going to call up the police officer who dealt with her case sometime this week and talk about the restraining order." I said and Zara mumbled an agreement.
Then my door burst open and Embry jumped on me. I laughed at him until he started kissing me. I dropped the phone and he instantly got my full attention.
He pulled back and grinned happily at me. My breath always catches when he looks at me like that. I'll never be able to understand what he sees in me. I just thank my lucky stars for this imprinting business, because I know without that then he wouldn't ever look twice at me.
He picked up my phone and where I heard Zara shouting from the other end. "Sorry, something terribly important has come up. She'll call you back later." He said before hanging up and kissing me again. I laughed and buried my hands in his hair.
Eventually we pulled apart, gasping for air. "Come on!" Theo called from downstairs and I smiled madly at Embry before rolling out from under him and grabbed my bag.
He groaned but followed after me. We walked out to his car and I turned to him excitedly. "Can I drive?" I asked while bouncing up and down.
He groaned. "Lex, I don't want you to hurt yourself." He said and I rolled my eyes and waved him off.
"Don't be silly, you've given me plenty of lessons so far, and it's only a little bit down the road." I said and pouted slightly. He groaned again but handed me the keys.
"Just be careful!" He cautioned me and got in the front passenger seat.
I didn't pay much attention to what they said while we were in the car, I just focused on my driving. I'll be damned if I have a crash. We got to the schools' lot and I parked the car. I turned the engine of and practically jumped out of the car and started skipping around. Embry got out and smiled at me as I jumped on him.
"See! I told you I wouldn't smash it up!" I said and he chuckled at me and pecked me on the lips.
Theo rolled his eyes at me. "Yeah, good one sis. You didn't fuck it up for once." I laughed and swatted him around the head.
"Shut up!" I said and climbed off Embry.
He wrapped his arm around my shoulders as we joined the others and walked into school. Some of the other girls were gawking at us and I could feel myself blushing. I'd forgotten that everyone here didn't know about us yet.
Leah grabbed my hand and started to pull me away to our first lesson.
"Bye!" I called to them and Embry quickly kissed me on the cheek.
We made it to English - well double English actually; yay – and I sat next to my lovely spot next to the girl I'd learned to be called Nancy. Beautiful name, eh?
"So, I hear that you're with Embry now." She said but I just rolled my eyes at her. "I thought you said you weren't after him."
"I did say that, but I don't like you so I was hardly going to tell you the truth, was I?" I said and she huffed at me.
"Me and my friends want to know how you did it." She said and I frowned at her.
"What?"
"Because you must have gone through a hell of a lot to get someone like him to go out with someone like you." She said bitterly.
"I didn't do anything." I said and she laughed.
"I was right then. He's just going out with you for a dare or a joke or something." She said but I ignored her as I started writing notes on the essay we had to write.
Then a rubber flew across the room and hit Nancy hard on the side of the face, and I mean hard.
She yelped and stood up, clasping her forehead. "Who the hell was that?" She shouted.
"Nancy! You shall watch your language in this classroom!" The teacher shouted from the front and I head a couple of snickers.
Leah walked up to our table and bent down to pick up the rubber and smirked at Nancy and winked at me. I laughed and carried on with the essay, ignoring Nancy for the double period.
I practically ran out of class as soon as the bell went and went straight to Embry, who was already waiting outside. I jumped on him and he happily picked me up and wrapped my legs around his waist. He grinned madly at me before we kissed passionately, only to be interrupted by Nancy who barged into me. It Embry didn't have super human strength; I reckon he would have dropped me.
She smiled innocently at Embry who just looked confused. Bless him. "I'm so sorry about that." She said and then looked at me with clear disgust.
"Don't worry about it Nance! I take it you know Nancy, Embry? She was asking in English how I managed to get somebody like you to go out with somebody like me. I didn't know though, why are you with me?" I asked him and laughed.
He scowled at Nancy then turned to me. "You got a fucking great ass." He said with a wink and walked of with me outside. I laughed while Nancy stood their gaping before stalking of, glowering at me.
I rested my face against his neck after kissing it and tightened my legs around him. "I love you, Em." I said and I could feel his jaw muscles move against the top my head; he was blatantly smiling like he just won the lottery. Weirdo.
"I love you too, Lex." He said before tilting his head and kissed me on the cheek.
I was so tired by the end of the day, it passed excruciatingly slow while I wasn't with Embry. He dropped us of at mine and carried me upstairs bridal style and flung me on my bed. I laughed at him as he crawled on top of me. "I'm not so tired that you need to carry me." I said and he laughed.
"I just like having you in my arms, make sure you don't fall over as much." He said and grinned cheekily at me. I laughed and knocked my forehead gently against his. He smiled and caught my lips with his.
I pulled away only when my mobile vibrated. He groaned and rolled onto his back while I took it out of my pocket. "Hello?" I asked, kind of breathlessly as I turned to lie on my side and stroked Embry's forearm softly.
"Hey!" It was Josh, I smiled madly.
"Hi! How are you?" I asked him, Embry sighed and pushed me onto my back. I frowned at him in confusion.
"I'm good. Actually I'm better than good, I'm fantastic." He said while Embry got up on his knees and straddled me.
"And why is that dearest Joshua?" I asked quietly while I kept my eyes on Embry. He looked really mischievous as he slowly bent down, my breath caught as he looked so unbelievably gorgeous.
"That would be because my dad just came into a lot of money. A lot of money." He said.
"I didn't realise you were so superficial." I said and laughed. Embry's lips made contact with my neck and I had to bite back a moan.
"That's not just it though. Guess what my dad wants to do?" Josh said. I was having trouble even thinking straight, how the hell did he expect me to guess something that that?
"Mm, don't know." I mumbled as Embry sucked on my skin.
"He wants to go on a holiday. Guess where he wants to go on a holiday?" He said and I very nearly hung up on him when Embry started nibbling.
"Uh, mm. Don't know." I practically whispered.
"Er, okay Lex. Um, anyway – America!" He said and I dropped the phone and rolled Embry over. He smiled victoriously at me but I pulled away and put a hand on his chest, keeping him down.
I picked up the phone as Embry groaned and pouted. "Where bout's?" I asked Josh excitedly.
"He wants to go around America during the holidays, but I think we're staying at about a half hour away from where you live for a week. Oh! And we're taking Effie as well." He said and I squealed in excitement.
"Fucking hell Josh! That's amazing! It's not that long away. I've missed you so much." I said as Embry guided my hand down his body, while staring at me innocently.
I laughed and slapped at him, he then sighed again.
"I know right, only a couple of weeks. I'm so excited, I've missed you so much." Josh said as Embry's hands made their way up my thighs and underneath my top. I growled at him warningly and Embry laughed.
"You're getting better at that." He said.
"One moment Josh." I said as I dropped it and took Embry's hands and put them securely underneath my knees as I sighed.
"Persistent much?" I asked and he smiled madly at him. He rolled me over with great ease and his lips lingered millimetres above mine.
"You know, I could always force you to do what I want." He said in a seductively low voice. I smiled immediately without realising I was doing it. He is so hot. I have no idea how I managed to get to be with Embry. He bought his lips down to mine but I moved my face to the side and put on my best scared voice. "Please Embry. Please don't hurt me." I whispered and he jumped off me as if burnt.
"What!? No! I'd never hurt you!" He cried as he looked at me with wide eyes.
I laughed madly at him as I sat up.
"Ha! And you said you could force me to do what you want." I said and he gasped.
"You were acting?" He said and I bit my lip so I didn't laugh and nodded my head.
A low grumble emitted from his chest as he pushed me over and started tickling me. I screamed out and started laughing hysterically. He didn't stop though. I fought against him but I was still gasping for air through laughs a couple minutes later.
"If you don't stop." I started then laughed again. "No touching me for a week!" I screamed and he instantly stopped, staring at me wide eyed.
"What?" He said and I smiled madly at him.
"You stopped 'cause I threatened you with that?" I asked and laughed.
He frowned in confusion. "I'd do whatever you wanted if you threatened me with that." He said and I laughed even harder and rested my head against his warm toned chest.
"I officially own you now." I said and laughed.
He started playing with my dark hair with his fingers. "I was always yours." He whispered softly and kissed me on the forehead. I smiled madly into his chest as I wrapped my arms around his body.
I totally forgot about my phone call with Josh. He told me later on that he hanged up after a while anyway.
