"If anyone could make me a better person, you could

All I gotta say is I must have done something good

You came along one day and rearranged my life

All I gotta say is I must have done something right

I must have done something right."

Must Have Done Something Right

I was awakened by the sound of my phone ringing. I tried to move to answer it, but Jacob's arms tightened around me, keeping me from moving at all. I grumbled and started shoving at his chest to which he growled at me playfully.

"My phone is ringing." I said against his chest. "It could be my Mom."

That got him to let me go, but of course I knew that it wasn't my Mom. I already knew that it was Kenny; it was his special ring tone; the Imperial March from Star Wars. I rolled off the bed and grabbed my phone from my short's pocket.

"Hey Kenny." I breathed into the phone and received a scowl from Jacob.

"You should have been there yesterday; it was a day from hell."

"What happened?"

"Well we were having fun, bonding like father and sons tend to do, when he got stung by a bee on the tenth hole. Of course the idiot forgot his epi pen, so we had to call an ambulance. Then when we brought him back from the hospital someone was kicking up a bunch of dust mowing; so I had an asthma attack."

"Aww, are you alright?"

"My Mom dragged me inside and my Dad went and chewed the guy out."

"Well my day was tame compared to yours; we watched movies all day."

"What are you doing today?"

"I have no idea." I replied honestly, looking over at Jacob who was throwing on shirt over his delicious body. He turned and caught me staring, but he only grinned and winked at me before he left me alone in the room.

"You fly back Sunday morning right?"

"Yup. Are you and Scott coming to get me?"

"Your Mom too."

"Well, I'll let you go; I have to go to the eye doctor today."

"Have fun, Kennedy." I smirked.

"Oh I will."

By the time I finished getting dressed and ready for the day, Jacob was gone. Just gone; I looked around the small house for him wondering where it was that he had went but saw him nowhere. I was about to go outside to investigate when a large body came into sight from the woods. Whoever it was, was in the process of pulling on a shirt as they approached; it wasn't Jacob but it was definitely a wolf.

"Hey Silvy." Seth greeted. "Jacob had to take off pretty fast; orders and all that. So I thought that I would come entertain you."

I smiled because it was hard not to around a sunny person like Seth. I'd only met him once but he'd been smiling most of the night then too, and now was no exception.

"What did you have in mind to entertain me with?" I questioned curiously.

"Has Jacob taken you for a ride?"

My brows crinkled together in confusion. Did he mean like a car ride? Or a ride ride? Or was he being a perverted teenager?

"A ride on his back." He chuckled, apparently reading the expression on my face. "As a wolf."

"No, he hasn't." I grinned. "Are you offering?"

He grinned, and threw his shirt off. That was something that I would have to get used to; hot, built men walking around shirtless, maybe even sometimes naked. Of course only the sight of Jacob's muscles had me turning to goo even though I still had to admire the beauty of the others.

"You might want to turn around."

He didn't have to ask me twice; I wasn't about to make this awkward by seeing his manly bits. Sure I had grown up with a male best friend and of course there had been that one time junior year when I walked in on him getting out of the shower. We'd avoided each other for about an hour until he admitted that he had seen my breasts one of the nights he had spent in the past.

I waited a bit before I turned around and when I did there stood a sandy colored wolf giving me a look equivalent to a human grin. I simply just stood there staring for a minute; I hadn't been this close to Jacob. It was amazing, his eyes looked almost exactly the same, and the expression was purely him.

He crouched low, my signal to get on his back. I climbed on and clutched his fur tightly in my fingers as he took off into the forest. I closed my eyes at first, afraid that he would hit a tree but once I realized how ridiculous that was I opened my eyes and watched as the trees blurred by us. It was amazing!

I was getting really into it when suddenly he just stopped. I looked up, wondering what was wrong, and saw three wolves staring the two of us down. Uh oh. We were in trouble. My eyes shot to the russet wolf that I recognized as Jacob; he did not look happy. The other two, the black and silver one, looked almost amused at Jacob's anger and the sheepish look I'm sure both Seth and I had on our faces.

Jacob growled and Seth crouched down so I could get off. I stepped off of him carefully, watching Jacob curiously. He wasn't going to hurt Seth was he? My question was answered when a second later, after I was a far enough distance away from Seth, Jacob tackled him onto the forest floor.

Seriously? It's not like I was injured or anything. I rolled my eyes as the two wolves rolled on the moss covered ground, and crossed my arms across my chest. Men were such…retards sometimes. Of course the other two wolves seemed to be enjoying the testosterone fest in front of them, if the wolfy grins on their faces were any indication.

"Are you done yet?" I asked impatiently.

The sound of my voice caught their attention, Jacob's in particular. Apparently he was done harassing Seth because he trotted over to me and bent down to indicate I should get on his back. Why should I? If he had a problem with me being on Seth's back, then what made his back any safer?

When I just stood there he growled impatiently and somehow threw me up onto his back with just his muzzle. I grabbed his fur in my hands since I had no other choice and watched as the trees blurred by us. We finally stopped in a small clearing and I took my opportunity to get off his back before he could remove me himself.

Then without warning he simply changed back, while I stared right at him. To say I got an eyeful was an understatement, and if I said I didn't enjoy it I'd be lying. But my face burned and I quickly turned away while he pulled on a pair of cut offs. His face was a little red when I turned back around to face him, but he'd forget about that in a second.

"Why did you have to go and attack Seth?" I snapped.

"He could have hurt you." He replied simply.

"You did the same thing." I pointed out.

"You're my imprint, whether or not you're in danger is on my mind all the time; Seth has a one track mind." He explained. "Besides, I didn't hurt him. I just reminded him who was older."

I rolled my eyes, to which he mimicked me and pulled me up against his bare chest before I had a chance to move away. I craned my head to look up into his eyes and saw the laughter hidden in the depths of his chocolaty eyes.

"You know what Kenny told me?"

"What did he tell you?" I asked skeptically.

"He told me that when you roll your eyes at someone the way you just did it means you care about them."

"As opposed to…?"

"Your purely mean eye roll; he told me I'd be able to tell if you meant it maliciously." He grinned.

This did not surprise me that Kenny was explaining the mechanics of my eye rolls to Jacob; Kenny did know me best and he knew things about me I'd didn't even realize. Best friends were just great like that.

"When did you have this conversation with him?"

"Before we left Michigan."

I rolled my eyes again and smirked up at him. In response his hands slid down to my waist and his face moved closer to mine. Was he going to kiss me? My heart had already started to race, the butterflies in my stomach going crazy at the thought of his lips against mine.

Instead he pressed a kiss to my forehead and pulled away with a smile on his face. The bastard probably heard the traitorous beating of my heart and decided to play a little game with me. I pulled away from him and started to walk back into the woods with no idea where the hell I was going.

"Silvy, that's the wrong way."

"I figured." I sighed and let him catch up to me to guide me in the right way.

He grabbed my hand in his much larger one and turned me in the opposite direction. We started to walk then, my hand in his, feeling completely normal. We were quiet for a while until I couldn't take the silence any longer.

"Why didn't you kiss me?"

"Did you want me to?" He didn't miss a beat.

"I didn't think you would care if I did or not."

"Is this request for me to now?"

"The moment is gone now."

He chuckled, "The moment is never gone."

Then he tugged at my hand, spinning me around up against his chest. His hands come down on my waist and mine instinctively pressed against his chest as he crushed his lips down onto mine. Shivers ran down my spine as our lips connected and the butterflies in my stomach came back with a vengeance. I was frozen for only a second as his lips brushed against mine before I responded and parted my lips so his tongue could slip inside.

I sighed in bliss and brought my arms up around his neck. He snapped out of it then and pulled his lips away from mine, peppering kisses on my cheeks and forehead before he finally pulled away enough to look me in the eyes.

"Satisfied?"

"Very." I whispered.

***

"He just grabbed you and kissed you after you said that?" Kim asked with a smile.

"Yeah; I didn't honestly expect him to just do that."

Emily chuckled dryly, "I think you did."

I blushed a little, "Okay, so maybe I did. I had to know how it felt."

"And?" Kim urged.

I couldn't help the ridiculous smile that crossed my face. That had been my first kiss that actually counted. The one with Kenny had purely been experimental, but this one was…everything that a first kiss should be. I had butterflies in my stomach just thinking about it.

"I think the look on her face answers your question." Emily grinned as she wiped the marinara sauce off of Tyler's face.

Emily had made spaghetti for Jared, Sam, Jacob, Kim, and I, as well as Tyler of course. It had been a nice dinner and once it was over the boys had gone out back for something leaving us girls and Tyler in the kitchen talking.

Of course the topic of Jacob and I had come up after the topic of Kim's baby. I found out that she was due next month and had no desire to find out what sex the baby was until birth. Then somehow the two of them turned on me with those little smirks on their faces and asked about Jacob and I.

"You go home Sunday right?" Kim asked.

"Yeah."

"What about the two of you? Have you guys talked?"

"Sort of, but that was before I kissed him." I replied, fully aware that that kiss had changed everything I had been thinking.

I didn't love him…at least not yet, but there was definitely something between us that I could not ignore for the life of me.

"It'll be hard for him, but your life is in Michigan." Emily sighed.

I nodded, "Sometimes I wonder why he imprinted on me. You two lived here your whole lives, but me? I'm a white girl from Michigan. I'm German and Irish for goodness sakes!"

"Don't question the imprinting; it knows what its doing. Obviously you're the only girl that can mend his heart and tame him." Emily stated. "He was obviously pulled to Michigan for a reason."

"Yeah, why else would he come there?" I chuckled.

We were silent for a few minutes; the only noise in the room was Tyler as he played with wood blocks on the table.

"Both of you are young, Silvy. It'll fall into place; it just might take a few years." Emily finally said.

"Yeah no one expects the two of you to get married all of a sudden and pop out a kid." Kim added.

"Like you." Emily teased.

"You too." Kim shot back.

It wasn't until we were back at the Black's house in his room getting ready for bed that I decided we should talk about it since I would be leaving soon.

"So I know I asked this before, but that was before we kissed. What happens when I go home?"

"We visit as much as we can." He replied simply.

"Web cams." I suggested.

He nodded and pulled me onto his lap, his arms encircling me. "Does this mean you've accepted all of this?"

"Obviously." I grinned. "Maybe Kenny and I can come the week after orientation to visit. His Dad did promise us he'd pay for plane tickets wherever we wanted. We were thinking Scotland, but I think it's a little late to spring that on him."

"You'd really fly back out here so soon?"

"It would be the middle of July, but yes. But you have to play nice with Kenny."

He chuckled, "I can do that, as long as he doesn't put you in harm's way."

"An asthmatic put me in danger?"
