Embry POV: Wolf Form
"It hurt." I thought.
Me and Paul were on leech duty this morning.
"What she s aid was a little harsh, but what did you want from her? You guys just created a truce from friggen' World War III. I'm sorry dude, but I wouldn't expect her to fall in love with you for a while." Paul told me. A low rumble escaped from my mouth. Paul shook a little, indicating he was laughing.
"What now?"
"I just think it's adorable of how much you love your best friend, imprint or no imprint. Still, I can't blame you. Cassie's a keeper. Don't even bother Em. I'm not supid enough to try anything."
That last part was only said because of the excessive amount of growling I was giving him. If he touched her, he'd die.
"Em. Has being a wolf not taught you anything? I can still hear your thoughts. By the way, you couldn't kill me, i'm too amazing." he said, cockily I might add.
"Just shut it and get back to the house. School starts in an hour." I told him.
We turned around and started making our way back.
"You better start paying attention in Biology." he thought out of the blue.
"Why?"
"Because I'm in that class and i'm starting to feel a little nauseous with all the dirty thoughts about Cass." he said, trying to hold back a laugh.
"Oh come on Paul! I don't have dirty thoughts... okay maybe I did once, but it wasn't my fault!"
I'm so lucky i'm in wolf form. I'd be the color of a tomato by now.
He laughed once again before taking off down the path.
He's so dead.
Cassie's POV:
"Hey! Need a ride baby sis?" Jared asked me, his mouth full of Honey Nut Cheerios. I smiled from the living room, putting my books in my purse.
"Maybe, if you chew with your mouth closed i'd give you an answer." I told him smugly. Next thing I knew, I was pushed from behind and onto the couch with a gigantic body on top of me. "Ugh, Jar!" All he did was smile innocently. I glared at him. "You must be loving this."
"Oh yes, Cassandra. I am."
A few more minutes of torture later, I was able to breathe again. I stood up and grabbed all I needed. Today was my first day ba ck at school since I left. I wanted it to be a good day. The only school on the Rez had already started so naturally, I was stuck at Forks. I didn't know what the big deal was between the pack and Forks, but it obviously wasn't good. Still, somehow the boys really wanted to be my protectors and enrolled.
Also, if I said I wasn't a little nervous and annoyed, i'd be lying. I really didn't want to make a big scene this year, but that's kinda hard with 5 ginormous and moderatly attractive guys following you around all day.
"To answer your question, yes, a ride would be nice." Jared smiled and grabbed his things as well, walking out our front door and to the car. Climbing into the drivers seat, Jared said, "Quil and Seth asked for a ride tool. Do you mind?
I rolled my eyes. "Jared, these guys are my brothers now. It will never bother me."
"This is why you're the best sister ever." he told me, kissing my cheek.
I chuckled, "I know."
It took a good 5 minutes to get to Seth's. Jared honked the car horn and 2 seconds later, the guys emerged from the house. It was odd. They were actually wearing shirts this time and honestly, they looked even more attractive, as if that were possible. I heard a sound of disgust come from Jared.
"Problem?" I asked.
"Yes. Stop hitting on my friends when you have Embry." he said, bringing a blush to my face. I didn't even know he was looking at me...
"What about hitting on friends?" Quil asked, as him and Seth climbed into the back seat.
My eyes widened. "Nothing!" I yelled, a little too enthusiastically.
Jared rolled his eyes while backing out of the driveway. "If you call staring at my friends with your mouth open and drool coming out nothing." he said, completely mortifying me. I slapped his arm, getting a feeling of satisfaction when I heart an "OW!" follow.
"It was not like that Jar." He smirked, telling me he would never believe that.
Quil chuckled from the back seat. He grabbed onto the driver and passenger seats and pulled himself up so that his f ace was imbetween me and Jared's. "It's okay Cass. I know we're hot and too hard to resist. It'll be okay." he said in a cocky tone, also making the move to kiss my cheek. I smiled and elbowed his chest, making him fall back into his seat.
"Is it just me or is she violent today?" laughed Seth.
"Yes. She is." Quil spoke again, rubbing his side. "It's kinda hot." he added as an after thought.
Jared piped up next, "Who are you, Paul? Everyone needs to stop hitting on my sister! I haven't even allowed Embry to yet." Soon all of us broke out into laughter from the disgusted look on Jared's face.
Brothers. Can't live with 'em. Can't live without 'em.
Okay. So far, my first day sucks. I feel like i'm some celebrity who needs 5 bodyguards to watch her every move. Everytime I talk to a new friend, the pack is there just staring us down like hawks. Especially guys. Embry pretty much combusts and whisks me away without any say. How can someone be flattered by imprinting? To me, it's down right ridiculous.
Right now, i'm without their presence. I managed to escape just before last period's bell. Maybe if I'm lucky, I can stay this way for the rest of the school day; or forever. I hope they know how annoying they are...
I just about opened my locker when I heard a, "Cassandra?" I stopped. No one ever calls me Cassandra. I slowly turned around and came face to face with a beautiful boy and girl. They had extemely pale skin and...great hair, but what seemed to mesmerize me were their eyes. They were the exact same shade of golden brown. Wow...talk about attractive.
"Yes?" I replied, a little wary.
The boy and girl smiled. "We're sorry for soming up to you like this, but we have never seen you before and wanted to welcome you to Forks High School." His voice is like silk. It has got to be illegal to be this attractive. The boy smirked kind of like he could understand my thoughts.
"Wow, thank you!"
"We're about to head over to lunch, You should join us Cassandra." The girl said, her voice just as smooth.
See? Why would the pack think Forks is bad?
"Please, call me Cassie, and I'd love to. Thanks for being so welcoming." I said with a smile.
"I'm Bella Swan and this is Edward." she said, introducing themselves.
"Nice to meet you guys." I said, closing my locker. I noticed rings on both of their fingers. Were they married?
We started our way down to the cafeteria just talking and trying to get to know each other. Edward and Bella then led me over to a table with more beautiful people. What is it with this town? Are they all models or something?
I met Alice, Jasper, Emmett, and Rosalie. I was a little nervous to talk because of how intimidated I was of them, but that soon changed. They turned out to be amazing friends.
Me and Alice were just about to get to the topic of boys (which I dreaded since the moment we started talking) when the subjects of the matter showed up at lunch, obviously searching for me. As soon as their eyes landed on me, their concerned faces turned into outraged ones. I thought they would explode on me for ditching them, but they couldn't seem to take their eyes off of my new found friends. The ymarched over and stopped at our table. Nobody said anything. As my head darted back and forth between groups, I realized that there was tension. Obviously something happened in order for them to act this way. Without a word, Embry took my arm and gently lifted me up out of the seat. I glanced at Edward, pleading with my eyes to not let the pack do this, but he just looked down at the table, not daring to meet my eyes. It was like some unspoken agreement occurred.
I gave up. There is no use fighting if my so-called new friends didn't even want me.
I was whisked away to a new table. As soon as we sat down, me between Paul and Embry of course, the pack was back to their cheery, fun-loving selves. I ignored it. I've had far too many run in's with their mood swings, even before being wolves. It's giving me whiplash. Still, I couldn't shake the felling that something is not being said.
Ugh...I'll ask them later. I'm not ruining my first day with mythical creature stuff.
"So Cassandra. How's the school life so far?" Jared asked, giving me his signature smile.
"It's fine. You should know, you haven't left my side all day." I retorted.
I couldn't help it...
An eyeroll later, "We came here to protect you. We don't know what kind of danger you're in now that Embry here is your soul-mate,"
I blushed.
"Naturally, people want to hurt us, of course, but in order for them to get to us, they'll have to find our weakest point: our imprints. If you get hurt, Embry will feel it and vise versa. It works the same with all of us."
I blinked. "Well that's intense." The boys laughed.
"A little bit." Jake commented.
Then, out of nowhere, a beautiful brunette came up behind the boys. She had long, curly hair and nice clothes, but I could tell by the sway in her walk, I wouldn't like her. Without any permission, she plopped into Embry's lap like he was a VERY comfy couch. In any other girl's mind, they'd be completely jealous. Right now, aside from the unwanted jealousy starting to bubble up inside of me, i'm sitting here trying not to laugh at how uncomfortable he looks. Looking around, the other boys defenitly agree. She wrapped her arms around his neck and gave him a smile that was supposed to be seductive, but Embry would never figure that out. When it comes to girls being interested in him, he is the dumbest thing on the planet. Girls could flash him for god's sake and he'd still say, "She doesn't like me like that."
I could tell he didn't really know what to do. Being Embry's best friend for 16 years, it's trained me on understanding him without saying a single word. He didn't know if he should push her off or just keep her in his lap and endure the agony.
"Hey Taylia." Paul said, his eyes glued to her. I rolled my eyes. I was gust going to sit her and enjoy this moment that is Uncomfortable Embry, but no one else will help, so I guess it's up to me. It sucks to be an imprintee sometimes. Embry would be all over her if it wasn't for me. Still, Em looks about ready to explode so it's best I do this now.
"Taylia is it?" I asked. She glared at me.
"Yeah? What do you want?" Okay...I hate this girl. I know not to sink to her level, but she is asking for it. What did I ever do to her?
"Oh nothing...I just wanted the name that goes with the bitch in front of me." I shot back, trying to hide my giddyness.
Her eyes widened as well as the boys, smiles threatening to show.
"Who do you think you are? Are you mad that one of your hookups likes another girl? You still have 4 others." She said, gesturing to Embry and then the others.
That's it!
I slapped my hands on the table and stood up. "You think i've slept with these guys?"
Paul piped up, "I wish.."
Embry shot him a look. "This is not the time!" He whisper-yelled.
Taylia untangled herself from Em and stood up too, the both of us staring each other down, waitng for the other to crack.
"In case you haven't noticed, I've been best friends, practically a sister to them. I have never in anyway done something like that, beacuse if I did, I'd act like you: a bitch who only cares about what boy she's hooking up with next." I said.
The whole Cafeteria grew silent.
"If you ever touch Embry, and work whatever charm you THINK you have, you'll only break his heart. He deserves much more than that. All of these boys do. If you come near my boys again, i'll shove my foot so far up your ass, you'll be walking with a waddle, not a strut." I finished, completely surprised that I said all that, but also very proud. Proud for standing up for my family.
Not a single sound was heard. aylia stood there, just as surprised as I was. We stared at each other a few more seconds before she picked up her bag and walked out of the Caf. not even b othereing to look back.
I took a deep breath and sat back down. The boys looked at me with an amazed expression. I blushed.
"Guys? Come on, stop looking at me like that!"
After a few moments, Quil snapped out of it, "Okay. That was so kick-ass! This is why you're my favorite girl!" he exclaimed.
I smiled.
"You care about me." Embry said later with a touched look on his face.
"Of course I do. I care about all of you."
"You definetly care about me more though right?" Em said. "I mean...I am amazing." he said cockily.
I rolled my eyes...again.
"Don't get any ideas. She was asking for it."
"We're glad you had the balls to put her in her place. Taylia's been after Em for years. She goes down to La Push for the beach and since we're always around, she's tried time and time again to get close to him." Jake spoke up.
"It's disgusting. T hank god I have you." Em said with a sigh of relief.
This time, my blushing was involutary. He is all of a sudden making me nervous. I was waiting for the imprinting to kick in... I've been fighting it for a while now. I probably wouldn't have acted that way to Taylia if me and Embry were to only be friends.
Em got up from the table and draped his arms around my neck, hugging me from behind. "You're the best Cass." he spoke, kissing my bare shoulder.
Talk about shivers...
And of course, being the horndog he is, Paul had to ruin the moment and say, "Okay. Is no one going to talk about how hot she was though?! I can't be the only one. We should get her mad more often."
I chuckled, while Embry threw a piece of lettuce at him, hitting him square in the face. The rest of the guys joined in, food flying everywhere.
My Boys.
