Chapter 8: The Bonfire

Alex's POV

I couldn't believe it; after Jessie left I stomped up to my room and closed the door. I had to think because I just don't understand, how he could just decide to come back. He needs to understand that I don't need him anymore; I don't want him any more, right? I want to work my way up to be someone Embry will want. Now I am so confused, everything was going great, but he just ruined it. I need to talk to Carter; she always knows what to say. She was still downstairs, I heard my mom tell her to give me some time to myself. I walked down the stairs and was surprised to see that Embry was still here.

"Um, Carter can I talk to you for a sec?" She nodded and followed me to my room. When we came in there was an awkward silence but then Carter broke it.

"Well, that was a nice little um, reunion." I just nodded my head.

"Tell me about it." I was still angry, but I couldn't stay angry when I go with Embry to the bonfire; I have to be fairly happy.

"You still going to the bonfire?" I looked confused.

"How do you know that?" She laughed a little

"Embry told me, he is so sweet. As big as he is I don't thing he'd hurt a fly." It's true, he was very nice.

"So are you going?" I nodded.

"I can't let that idiot ruin my birthday; I won't let him ruin my birthday." She smiled at that.

"Well then, let's find you an outfit." For about an hour Carter played dress up with me, she did my makeup too. When she finished with me she told me to spin so she could admire her creation.

"I am so good; you could probably pass for 3 months instead of six." I looked at her like she was crazy.

"Stop lying I look like a land yacht." She laughed.

"No you don't, really." I just sighed and walked downstairs where Embry still waited. He smiled when he saw me; which made me smile in return.

"So you ready to go?" Embry nodded, he was so cute. Then I remembered something.

"Wait Embry, do you think maybe Carter can come too?" He smiled and nodded.

"Sure, sure she can come." Carter looked happy that he said yes.

The drive to the beach wasn't long so I didn't complain. When we got there I saw Kim, she ran up and gave me the biggest hug ever.

"Hey, Kim, this is Carter." She looked happy.

"Hi, I'm Kim; it's so nice to finally meet you. I've heard so much about you." Carter smiled back at her.

"Same here, but if there is anyone she talks about more it's Embry. Sometimes I want to erase him from her mind, 'Omg Embry smiled at me today, he has the cutest eyes he's so yummalicious…'." I cut her off when I saw Embry.

"Shut up, he's coming!" Embry walked over and smiled at me, oh I was going to faint.

"Hey you guys gonna eat?" We nodded.

"Well you better get over there before Paul, Quil, and Jacob get here." We decided to go eat, because I remember the first day I got here, dinner at Billy's was hilarious, yet disgusting.

I had three hot dogs, one cheeseburger, and two stolen pizzas (one from Embry and one from Jared). Hey, I am prego, I gotta eat. But, don't look at me; Embry had 7 hot dogs 5 cheeseburgers, 5 pizzas, and 2 of Quil's fries, he bought those before he came here.

The stories started after the food was gone, Billy and old Quil told them. They were great; I liked the part where that vampire got ripped to shreds, though I felt bad for the third wife. Everyone was getting ready to go home; Sam, Kim, Carter, and I were helping Emily clean up.

"So Alex, Embry told me about your Jessie incident, are you okay." Emily is so sweet, it surprised me how much she cared about everyone.

"Yeah he came out of the blue and wanted me to forgive him, but I don't know if I can. I mean, something is telling me I should be nice and forgive him so he can go home, but another part of me wants to make him suffer." Wow, I didn't know I could tell someone that much other than Carter.

"Well, I think you should do whatever you feel is right, but it just depends on what your definition of right is." She was right, I should forgive him but I'm not ready yet. I can't forgive him; I just need more time to think it over.

"I guess I'll just have to think about it some more." She gave me an understanding look.

"You do that, but in the mean time you need to start thinking about a baby shower, you've got three months until your due date, you don't want to have one too late."

"Okay, I'll talk to my mom about that tonight." She smiled, and then everyone said bye and Embry dropped me and Carter home.

"Hey mom, we're back!" I yelled from the door.

"Hey honey, did you guys have fun." We both nodded.

"Yeah, the stories were so cool." My mom smiled and then got serious again.

"Okay, school tomorrow Alex, bed, now." I laughed and dragged Carter upstairs.

"So Carter, how long are you staying." She smiled.

"My mom sent me up first to surprise you for your birthday, but we are moving here officially in two weeks!" I screamed.

"Oh my God, your staying this is so great, we can be like neighbors or something. We can go to school together. Oh it's gonna be great"

"Um, I'm not exactly moving here here. We are staying in Forks. I'm not a native remember. Strictly a California girl. The weather is definitely going to take some getting used to. I'm going to Forks High School. but at least I can come see you whenever I want now. You were my only friend back home and I missed you like crazy. It's only been a few weeks but I couldn't adjust. I was like a zombie. My parents decided that they couldn't see me like that all the time and gave me the great news that I am here to deliver to you.

"Well I guess it doesn't matter where you go to school, at least you're here, did my mom know about this?" She smiled and nodded.

"This is so cool. When are you gonna start school?"

"Well my parents are coming up in another week. So I'll be at you're house for the time being. What's on the agenda until then?" I really didn't think about it, but I almost forgot to tell my mom about that baby-shower.

"Well right now I have to go tell my mom about a baby-shower." She stayed in my room and started writing in her diary.

"Hey mom, Emily said that we should have a baby-shower before I start screaming, 'The baby's coming'."

"Well I think it's a good idea, because I definitely don't think I'll be able to by all that stuff for two babies." I smiled.

"Okay that's all I guess, so, um, I'm, gonna, go back, to my room now."

When I got upstairs I took out my guitar, Carter plays too, so when she saw me take out mine she took out hers too.

"What are we going to play?" Carter asked.

"A Taylor Swift song of course!" She knew I loved her songs.

"Crazier?" That was my favorite song by her.

"Yup."

After we finished the song we went to sleep, we were pretty tired. It was a very eventful day.

So what did you guys think? I liked it. So you know what to do, review, review, and review. Let me know what you think. Should Embry tell her he's a werewolf in the next chapter or the day of the baby-shower? (No he's not going to tell her about imprinting)
