Danni's POV
I woke to the sound of happily singing birds and by someone shaking me constantly. Will they just Sod off and let me sleep.
"Danni, wakey wakey, time to get up" ugh, it was Mollie. Doesn't she remember I don't do mornings? Obviously not! "Danni, will you get up, you lazy ass!" Mollie shouted into my ear. Then she started poking my forehead. Will she go away?
"I'm not getting up, because quite clearly the sun isn't up" I said half asleep and pointing to what I hoped was the window "and anyways you get up!" I said randomly which was pretty stupid. I tried to open my eyes but they were too drowsy.
"Danni...for one I am up obviously" she walked over to the window and opened the curtains "and the sun is up, it was up way before you." Mollie sounded pretty confused.
"Hmpf!" was all I said back and rolled onto my side.
"Danni, a certain somebody is downstairs and the faster you get up, the longer you spend time with him" my eyes opened widely, I swung my legs out of bed , and they landed on the floor with a thump. "I thought that would work" Mollie said through fits off giggles. I grabbed my clothes and slipped them on. Then skipped to the bathroom and had a wash and did my teeth. When I came back from the bathroom, Mollie was sat on the bed playing with her thumbs.
"Mollie...you could have gone downstairs, you didn't have to wait for me" I said smiling. "Yeah, I know, but what are friends for eh?" we both giggled and skipped down the stairs.
Jacob and Quil were both sat on the couch. They both looked up at both of us as soon as we had walked in the room "Breakfast is on the table" Jacob told us. I made my way over to the table and sat down. I was pretty hungry, I must admit. Mollie followed and sat across from me. I grabbed a bowl from the middle of the table and some cornflakes, and started to eat, Mollie chose the co co pop crunchies, which is her favourite.
Today, is the day when I tell quil how I feel about him, and if he doesn't like me back, then I will pack my bag and leave, go back home, even though it's the last place I want to go right now. I would never bother him again, even though I don't want to be apart from him, I get lonely when we are away. Omg! I'm such a pessimist. Any who, if he does like me back, I don't really know what will happen, but something good will, I can feel it. Omg I just sounded like my Nan there, scary! I took another mouth full of cornflakes. When I had finished Jacob came over and took my bowl and begun to wash up, looking over at Mollie as he did so. Mollie got up and sat at side of Quil and they started talking about what's on T.V. I went into the kitchen and walked over to Jacob.
"Jake, I'll do them, give yourself a break, and any who isn't it the girls that do the house work?" I asked Jake, he just laughed.
"It's okay, you go sit down, and quil wants to talk to you anyways." Quil wants to talk to me, oh no, this don't sound too good. I worried expression must have crossed my face because Jake shook his head "it's nothing bad, I promise you."
"Oh okay" I smiled trying to cover up that I wasn't worried still, but he knew I was, I have always been bad at lying. With that I walked over to Quil and Mollie, but before I could sit down, Quil stood up and took me by the hand, why was he so hot? The heat rose up my arm, bringing a tingling sensation along with it. I loved it when he touched me, it felt so natural "Danni, we need to talk, privately." My lip started to tremble and my heart felt like it was going to burst out of my chest. Normally with those particular words something bad usually follows. Jacob said it wouldn't be bad, but he wouldn't lie...would he? I just nodded my head. Quil pulled me out the door; I looked around to Mollie who was still sat on the couch, biting her lip. Quil pulled me into the forest away from the house; it was silent between us, an air of awkwardness swept over us.
"Q-Quil, Where are you taking m-me?" I stuttered, couldn't keep my voice strong. Quil didn't say anything, was he mad at me? We finally came to a stop, and quil let go of my hand, I had a great urge to grab back hold of it. Quil was acting different today, he wasn't his usual self.
Quil gestured towards a rock in the middle, surrounded by trees and bushes. I went and sat on it. Quil paced back and forth. I sat their quietly, not knowing what to say, what do I say? What could I say?
After about 5 minutes, Quil stopped and looked at me; I gave him a reassuring smile. What the hell was bothering him so much? He took 4 steps towards me.
"Danni, there's something I have been hiding from you, not just me, all of the guys have." Quil told me, worry and fear filled his eyes. I was pretty confused at this point...He has been hiding something. Oh god no, please tell me he isn't gay! Oh no, he could be a robber, and he is going to rob my house, and take my keys. That's a stupid accusation Danielle. "Danni, you have to promise me, you won't tell a soul, but Mollie she will already know, Jacobs going to tell her now." Quil paused, took a deep breath and then carried on. "Danni, please don't be scared of me, that's the last thing I want, and don't run away" I took a deep breath; all sorts of possibilities were running through my mind. "Danni...I'm...I'm a Werewolf." Quil bit his lip and stared at me, waiting for my reaction. A werewolf, was he joking, werewolf's aren't real, they are only in story books, who is he trying to kid?
"Quil, werewolf's aren't real" I shook my head slightly, I was very confused, was he mad. I gulped.
"Danni, I swear on my life, I'm a werewolf" Quil still stared at me, concern written all over his face.
"You mean to tell me, your a werewolf, and all your friends are, so you like shape shift into like...a wolf. That's insane, it's impossible, who are you trying to kid?" the lad needs help, he is deluded! A werewolf. Pfft! I mean please, come on.
"I know it's hard to believe but it's true but..." I cut him off. He looked pretty annoyed that I wouldn't play along with his stupid game.
"Dam right it's hard to believe, it's not true at all, you can't be serious" I shook my head trying to figure out what he was saying. It was madness. Nonsense. "I'm leaving" I stood up and stomped away, but quil grabbed hold of my wrist and pulled me into him. I was stood in his arms, how much I love this moment, besides all the madness that just happened. The heat radiated off his body. He spun me round and sat me back on the rock. I crossed my arms and made a pouting face, I know it may be childish but oh well, he was the one trying to get me to believe such rubbish anyway.
"Fine, I will just have to show you" Quil stormed off into the forest mumberling to himself...while I sat there on my own. He expects me to believe he can change into a wolf and so can his friends, are there cameras watching me, so I can go on T.V and make a fool of myself. I put my head in my hands and took deep breaths, so much for telling him I love him, he is a loon. I'm never going to be able to tell him I love him. Not at this rate.
Next minute there is this loud ripping sound, which made me jump. What was that? I looked around confused, nothing. Suddenly a giant wolf appears in front of me. Big brown eyes, soft silky fur, black wet nose. My mouth dropped open, it was that wolf! The one who grabbed me and took my into the forest, the one who stared at me when I was in complete terror, the one in my nightmares, that wolf. Fear washed over me, the blood drained from my face, I could only imagine that I looked like a ghost. I wanted to scream but couldn't. The wolf just stood there, not moving. Hang on.
"Q-Quil?" I looked directly into the wolves eyes. The wolf nodded its giant head. I blinked; it amazed me what was stood in front of me. I wasn't afraid anymore, I felt protected, I felt safe. "You weren't j-joking, you really a-are a Werewolf..." the wolf nodded its head again... I gulped.
"That was y-you, that night, t-the o-one who grabbed my shirt, the one that chased m-me." The wolf looked down and then looked up and nodded its head. He looked guilty. "You didn't mean to scare me, did you, and you defiantly didn't want to hurt me did you?" the wolf shook its head.
I slowly lifted myself off the rock and planted my feet on the ground, they were like jelly. I took baby steps to the wolf, my breathing getting heavier. I lifted my hand up and stretched it forwards, I was shaking. The wolf bowed down as stayed very still; I could have mistaken it for a statue. I walked a little further and rested my hand on its cheek. Its fur was all smooth and silky just as I thought. I slid my hand up towards its ear. I can't believe this; here I am stroking a werewolf. How weird is that.
"Quil..." the wolf looked up at me and did one nod with its head, showing me to continue. "I love you" Quil stepped back, and I dropped my hand. What have I done...he trusts me enough to tell me he is a werewolf, and I blurt out something like that. Quil stared at my face, I bit my lip and stared into his eyes, thank god he can't speak at this moment, and god knows what he will say. Then a cheesy grin came upon his furry face, and he leaned down to my face, and licked the corner of my mouth all the way up to my ear. "Ewww, dog saliva!" I wiped my face with the sleeve of my jacket, while I giggled. Quil held up 1 paw, as to say 1 moment I guess, and then trotted off into the forest.
I walked back to the rock and sat there, waiting for quil to come back. After about 2 minutes or so Quil appeared from the trees, and sat at side of me. "Sooo..." was all I could say.
Quil looked at me. "Danni, there is something else you need to know".
"Something else...are you trying to give me a heart attack?" I said with a giggle.
"Not quite, no" Quil laughed, and then carried on. "You need to know about something called Imprinting."
"Imprinting...what's that?" I asked intrigued.
"Imprinting is a werewolf thing...It's like where you find your soul mates" Quil answered, still looking at me, and then looked down at his hands.
"I'm not quite sure what you are getting at Quil" Imprinting...What's he trying to get at?
"Oh, okay then, well it's like Imprinting occurs when a werewolf finds their soul mate. The moment the werewolf sees the one they are destined to be with, they imprint. It is described as having every connection with everything else severed and instead being only connected to this earth for the other person. After that, nobody else matters because you are only there for your other half, your soul mate. If an imprinted person is killed by someone, the wolf who imprinted on them can never forgive the killer. If the killer happens to be another wolf from the pack, the wolves would have no choice but to fight to the death. For this reason, the most important law among the La Push werewolf pack is that no wolf may kill the object of a fellow wolf's imprinting. It is unknown what would happen if a wolf was rejected by their imprinted one."
"That's pretty amazing" I said, imprinting, that's just wonderful, I wish I could imprint, seems easier, but I'm not a werewolf so it's pretty much impossible for me to. "Quil?"
"Yeah" Quil answered.
"H-have...Have you Imprinted?" I asked innocently.
"Ermm, Yeah, Yeah I have." Quil looked at me, waiting to see my reaction. It felt like a whole in the heart, this stabbing pain, I felt like the floor was going to collapse from beneath me, all I wanted to do was cry, who knew those words would hurt so much. Quil has imprinted, I bet she is smarter than me, prettier than me, more fun to be with. One single tear rolled down my cheek. Quil wiped it away and cupped my face with his hand.
"Oh, I bet she is beautiful" I said, and yet another tear escaped.
"Yes, she is" Quil Replied deep in thought, obviously thinking about her, how much I envied her at this moment.
"Do I know her?" I asked.
"Yes, you know her very well actually" he told me, a smile on his face. Oh, great I guess I know her; he is in love with someone I know very well. All I want to do was run away and curl up in a corner. Just thinking about it To think she gets to kiss him, to think she gets to have his hands on her waist, to think she can cuddle up to him when times get hard. To think she is his. I was jealous, I was annoyed, hateful. I was unloved.
"She is very lucky" I sighed and look down, I hoped he didn't see I was bothered about his, I didn't want him to know how much I wish it was me. "Does she know you imprinted on her?" I wasn't really interested anymore, I know that's selfish of me but I just wanted to be away from him, I don't want him to see me fall apart in front of him.
"I've imprinted on you silly" he told me, my head whipped up. Butterflies formed in my stomach, he loves me!
"Me?" I asked shocked.
"Yes, who else, I love you Danni, I couldn't tell you until I knew you loved me back, and me and Jake...well overheard you on the trailers" Quil look pleased with his self. "You don't know how long I have waited for you." Now tears of joy came to me.
"So you...love me? "It felt weird saying it out loud.
"Yes, since the moment I lay eyes on you, when you were down the grange that night." He told me.
"That's pretty amazing...Wait hang on, has Jake...Imprinted on Mollie?" I asked, hopeful, she would be crushed if he didn't.
"Yeah he has, but when she tells you act surprised..." Quil answered with a gleam in his eye. We sat there for some minutes, enjoying the moment, I certainly was. I was with the man of my dreams.
"Danni, can I kiss you?" Quil asked suddenly breaking the silence. He scraped his foot across the floor, nervously.
"Yes" I sighed, I've been waiting for this moment since id met him. And yet yes was the only word I needed to say to him, because next thing I knew I was in his arms. His warm tender lips crushed against mine. It was breath taking.
Quil broke away and said "I love you" I felt reality was over me, this isn't a dream, and this is real.
We sat there and stared into space, deep in thought. I lay my head on his shoulder and had our fingers twined together. I wanted this feeling to last forever!
