A/N: I own Callie and Elisha, S.M owns the rest...but this plot :P

Chapter 11: Broken / wise words from poets

"Callie, could you sit down for a little while...I got something to tell you" Embry had taken me down to the beach, the sunset was pretty low, but being around Embry kept me warm and safe.

"Sure, your not going to tell me that I'm a sort of lover for you...cause your wife is also having an affair?" Why do I always use harsh smart comments when a serious talk is about to happen?

I mentally slap myself.

"No, it's about me, only me...you just need to hear me out, promise me that?" His dark brown eyes told me that this was important for him and not a joke.

"Sure" I let him hold my hand in his. My tiny hand disappeared in his big one.

He told me about his tribes legends, and about the Cold one's. The same creatures that had frighted Elisha the first day.

"What I'm really saying is that I'm a shape-shifter, I can turn into a wolf." he looked at me, apologetically? Why would he do that..

"With me shape-shifting into a wolf thing, there is also another thing called imprinting...when I first saw you it was like a blind man seeing the sun for the first time. Every kind of love that I've had and shared with other people before, vanished and all my love went to you." I wanted to run away from him, but I didn't understand it so I raised my hand to try to find anything logical about Embry's weird explanation

"So everything revolves around me?" I knew a lot of girls would be super happy at this point, but instead it frightened me. It always have,opening up to someone..really meaning the "I love you" part or something similar to a love declaration.

I think is a bad idea, is he really serious about turning into a wolf?

"Yeah, but when your not around it's like love, life and meaning was over. Like the two weeks we talked on the phone, I wanted to be there with you. If Jake and Quil weren't here, I don't know how I would have survived...but no matter what, you are everything to me, your my better half and I've been waiting for you for so, so long" he took my other hand in his big and kissed both of my hands.

If I'm so important then why is he so protective of Ellie? And when can I start to run away from here?

"Not to sound rude, butif you imprinted on me, then why did you spend so much time with Elisha? And if you really can shape-shift into a wolf, can you show me?" I had no idea on why I asked that question when all I wanted to do was go home, to my safe bed.

"Well, she's your little sister and important to you, if she didn't approve of me I know you would have problems with me aswell...and she's a sweetheart, yeah..I got to warn you, I'm not the average wolf size" Embry chuckled at the last part, I was keeping my pokerface on and just smiled,now regretting asking to see him as a wolf.

Embry was huge, he had grey fur with some black spots, I wasn't sure at first but I saw his eyes and I knew it was him.

Embry followed me back, I thanked Claire and Quil for babysitting Elisha, who was sound asleep.

Lucky Embry had some patrolling to do, so once he left I took a quick shower, put on my jeans and hood. I wrote a quick note to tell Embry. I packed all my things aswell as Ellie's stuff. I put our bags in the car, before I lifted Elisha in the car and drove away from Embry Call and La Push.

I reached Seattle around midnight, I just took my sister and went up into the apartment, put Elisha in her bed and went to my own bed, where I silently cried myself to sleep.

I was waken up by a very pissed off Elisha, she was crying cause she didn't get to say goodbye to her new friends.

"Listen to me Elisha; I don't have a good explanation for why we left, why don't you and I go to BK today or something?

"NO! I want to go back to La Push, I was going to play with Mira, Evita and Ariane today, we were gonna have a play-picnic on their lawn, please Callie can't we just go back?" Her eyes were red and soar from the crying and I was guessing mine were the same.

"Elisha it's a 4 hour drive and I just..I just can't, you can be as pissed at me as you want to, but we won't go back." I went to the bathroom to take a shower.

"Well then send me on the bus then, you can call Embry to pick me up, can't you?"

"Go get dressed Elisha, I'm your big sister, I'm sorry I drag you away from your new friends, but do me a favor please..just please be a good girl,key?

Almost 5 weeks went by and Elisha was getting worse, snapping at me all the time. Heck even I ended up snapping at people who were enjoying their coffee or food talking politics or something else at the diner. My dear sweet boss, Henry tried to act as nicely as he could.

Every night turned into either a nightmare or me waking up crying, I just kept a facade on, for everyones sake and my own.

"Callie, did you relax at all, during your 4 days of freedom?" Henry asked one quiet day at work, it was also pay-check day. Elisha was sitting in the back room doing her homework.

"Yeah, Ellie and I went to this reservation outside Forks, La Push, heard of the place? Well it's beautiful nature, but we started missing our beds so we went home a day early. Relaxed and got settled into good old regular days." I made it sound casual, like it was an everyday thing to do.

"Well, you look exhausted and it's been what 4 weeks since you were there..so if you fell well rested and in good shape then I can't stop you from working." He looked at me shaking his head, I wanted to yell at him there and then, but I knew if I did that I would properly end up without a job and a home very soon after that. So I just took a deep breath and went out to see of there were any new customers.

I woke up feeling really bad ,it ended with me just reaching the sink in the kitchen just in the last second.

Perfect, just perfect...ugh, it's 6:40, 35 more minutes of sleep..goodie.

I just laid there with my eyes closed, trying to sleep some more.

The alarm went off, I went into the the bathroom, took a quick shower, put out the cereal boxes and milk for me and Elisha and went to wake her up.

We were on our way out the door when the urge to trow up came again,I ran for the bathroom.
