Here we go again!!!!
It was 5 am and everyone in the house was sleeping soundlessly. I tiptoed out of the room and went to get a granola bar from the kitchen. I sat on the kitchen counter looking at the cars. Why wasn't Nick's car there? Had I hurt him that badly that he decided to leave? I pushed the negative thoughts out of my head as I gathered my sketch note book and pencils.
There was a small trail behind my house that I had gone on in the past years and it was always just as beautiful. The view form there was the whole, tiny city of La Push. The trail was led from the forest behind the back yard, but in the end there was a small area with some trees and flowers.
I took a seat against a tree trunk and let all my pencils except one fall to the grass. I looked at the little city and began to draw it. The tiny houses with old cars parked out side them; the green trees and the powerful ocean. At the end I added a heart to the very right corner of the paper.
There was a rustle that made me look back to the forest, then another. When they finally quieted down I focused on a new drawing. There was another rustle from the forest. I gulped and started to work on the leaves of the tree.
A giant gray colored wolf or bear with dark spots on its back appeared in front of me. I'd never seen a real wolf except on tv but I knew it couldn't be as big as the creature standing in front of me. What was it? It slowly took a step closer to me. 'MOVE!' My brain thought. But I couldn't move. I just stood there, because there was something about this wolf. Maybe the way it had barked out a laughing sound or maybe the way it was looking at me. I took a step closer to it, holding out my hand. I looked in his eyes.
"Embry?" I whispered. The giant wolf ducked his head then his tongue hung down. "Are, you, can you--" His big tounge licked my face.
"Embry!" I laughed trying to hide my blush. Maybe I was going crazy again.
The wolf backed away and ran into the forest. Did he come here just to do that? I knew I'd se him later in the day. That's when I went back to finishing my tree. The shading was turning out nice. But it needed even more details. I put more preasure on to the pencil and squinted at the tree.
"Boo!"
I took a sharp breath in ready to scream but a hand covered my mouth. I could hear him laughing at me. I turned to glare at him. Instead a huge smile spread on my face.
"'Mourning," he whispered into my ear making me shiver involuntary.
"That was not nice." I said feigning anger, but failing. He turned me around and gave me a long hug. I loved his hugs they were so peaceful, and we fit like two pieces of a puzzle.
"I'm sorry" he pushed back a loose strand of hair on my face. "But you should be more sorry,"
"how come?"
"Don't you know they forest is dangerous? You shouldn't be out here alone,"
"Not to me, I have a wolf to protect me. And I'm not here alone, you're here so that's two people. Two people does not mean alone."
"But you were alone."
"WAS, Not anymore. You said I shouldn't be out here alone. And I'm not I'm with you, see?" I motioned my hand to the both of us. He sighed giving up. I smiled in victory.
"What are you doing up so early?"
"Thinking, and what were you doing?"
"My reason actually makes sense."
"Ah," I sighed.
"Sam had me patrolling with him and Quil."
"Fun?"
"'S okay I guess. When we find one its more fun."
"I see,"
"Come on," he said standing up.
"What? Where are we going?"
"To my house,"
That was all he said. I didn't really care where I was with Embry. As long as I was with him.
His house looked like a cute little barn. Except in the form of a house. It had the same red shade and the faded white borders. But the door seemed like it had just been replaced. My smile turned bigger if it was possible. This house was tiny but so adorable. It was so him.
"What do you think?" he asked as we walked through the front door.
"It's so perfect." I said taking off my jacket.
He went to start the movie while I sat on the couch. He came back, remote in hand, putting his head in my lap. The movie started. It was a cheesy comedy but it got kind of hard to watch when you had a hot guy starring at you instead. I was aware that soon Embry's eyes were closed. I didn't mind, hopefully he would get the sleep he'd missed. There was a buzz in my cat pocket. I took out my phone and called my sisters.
"Where are you?!" asked Audra.
"I'm busy."
"are you with Embry?" she asked.
"maybe, why?"
"No reason, I wanted to tell you that you're coming with us tomorrow."
"Where?" I asked
"Somewhere,"
"Okay,"
"Anya?"
"Yeah,"
"I hope you know what you're doing." I hoped I wasn't dreaming about her second meaning. What did she think we were doing?
"I do," I said flipping the phone shut.
"I do," whispered Embry.
So, what'd you guys think??? Sorry it was a happy ending again! I tried to make it upsetting but it didn't work out so well.
Song- That's how you know, by DL its soo perfect for this chpter, sorry the songs have been so teenagerish, I've been asking my lil sis for suggestions. Lol.
