Chapter 12

Recap-

"Truth is I'm going on a date with Embry. I have nothing to wear!" I told her. She looked at me knowingly.

"Let's call in the girls!" She decided.

I jumped in the shower as Kim called Leah, Emily and Aiyanna. Not even a second after I exited the shower was I pulled into a chair. Emily was tugging at my hair, while Leah was stabbing at my eyes with make-up. I heard Aiyanna and Kim arguing about my outfit.

"Purple would go best with her hair color." Aiyanna argued. She obviously had better fashion sense than me.

"No, It should be red , to look sexy, or green to make her look mysterious." I heard Kim protest.

"Green will make her look like a tree!" I heard Leah butt in.

"Wait, am I wearing a, a dress?" I asked in fear. I heard 3 yes's scream at me. I heard one "no". It was Emily.

"No, she should wear skinny jeans; they'll make her look taller." Emily suggested, and I agreed. I really wasn't up to wearing a dress.

"I agree it's only a date, let's not over do it!" I argued worried I would look like I was going to prom.

I tried to look at what they were throwing about. I had no idea how this stuff got here, but I was afraid to ask. From what I could see everything was really cute, maybe a little iffy but not too bad.

Leah was now helping Emily straighten my hair.

"She could wear something generic like black." Leah suggested.

"Well that would make sense seeing as I have a pink cast." I reminded them. They looked at my arm and sighed.

"She's right it'll have to match that. It'll have to be either black or white." Kim informed us.

"White would make her look more tan, and it's a nice summer like style." Emily put in and I groaned.

"Black would make her look older, and sexier." Leah argued as she tapped on my shoulder to let me know my hair was done.

Someone threw me a pair of dark blue/almost black skinny jeans. I pulled them on quickly. Someone threw a plain white shirt at me and I put it on. The outfit was plain, but I liked it. (A/N outfit in profile). I was then thrown a pair of hot pink heels; I figured they were to match the cast. Someone put a few little things of jewelry on me, and I was finished. I looked in the mirror. I was transformed.

"How do I look?" I asked nervously.

"Adorable"

"Beautiful"

"Hot"

"Perfect"

"Thank You!" I told them.

"No need thanking us we enjoyed it, but we do expect details later." Leah told me and I laughed.

With that I walked downstairs to meet up with Embry.

I entered into the living room, looking for Embry. I saw his back, and he turned to me. Both our breaths were caught looking at the other. I smiled as did he. He was dressed in nice jeans and a dress shirt. He looked gorgeous. I couldn't help admire the way his shirt clung to his muscles. His body was tempting me, and I was struggling to look away.

He walked over to me. I stood still taking him in.

"Hey, are you ready?" He whispered in my ear. I nodded.

He grabbed my hand and we walked outside, I heard a few catcalls so I replied by sticking my tongue out over my shoulder at them.

As we stepped in the car, Embry tucked my hair behind my ear as he whispered "You look beautiful!" I blushed.

The ride over was relaxed. I held Embry's warm hand the whole time. I had no idea where we were going but I was excited. I spent most the ride staring at the Adonis next to me. He was like a chocolate cake in a sea of carrots.

We arrived at Bella Italia, and my tummy rumbled in excitement. Embry heard it and laughed.

"Hungry much?" He teased. I "hmph'd" him. I Sped up to walk in front but failed miserably. Damn 6 ft giant! He laughed again as he led me inside.

There was a young woman at the podium, and I was immediately jealous. She was staring at Embry with hungry eyes. My Embry! I glared at her but she didn't notice. Embry wrapped his arm around my waist when he noticed this, trying to convey he wasn't interested.

"Table for two, or are you bringing dates?" She asked. The nerve I thought angrily. I was ready to smack her but I didn't want to ruin our date. Well either that or Embry's strong embrace wouldn't let me that close.

"Two, thanks." I told her as I wrapped myself around Embry. I probably looked ridiculous. As she reached to get the menus, I deliberately began giving Embry chaste kisses on the lips, included with random sneer looks at the lady. He laughed but was more than happy to reply to my kisses.

"A little jealous?" He teased quietly.

"No, she just needs to stop looking at you like a dog to a steak." I told him seriously.

"Don't worry about her. I only have eyes for one person." He told me, and smiled. I loved this guy. He was looking at me with this adoring look and I blushed. Then I snuggled into his chest to hide it. He laughed once again.

We were finally led to a booth, and we sat down. We ordered our drinks and the girl finally left.

Embry started laughing.

"What now?" I asked.

"I just never knew how possessive you were." He teased.

"I'm sorry, but you have no say. Your date isn't being stared at." I argued. He began looking around, but his face became angry.

"What are you doing?" I asked curiously.

"Did you bring a jacket? Never mind wear mine." He told me. I was completely confused. Not only about why he making me wear his jacket, but how long he had had a jacket with him. I never even noticed it.

"Why am I wearing a jacket?" I asked.

"Well you challenged me to see who was staring at my date, and there are way too many. Plus they aren't looking at your face." He explained in anger. I agreed to put on the coat, not because I cared too much about my outfit, but I knew Embry was much more jealous than me. I didn't need a wolf popping out during dinner.

Dinner was enjoyable. I was surprised though. He was eating at an almost human speed with a fork, and a knife! I mean every few second I was waiting for him to just get frustrated and dump the whole plate down his throat, but it never happened.

We decided to skip dessert, because Embry wanted to take me to one more place. I couldn't think of any place special. Then again I only know places Bella knew. So I went down my list of possible places. I knew it wasn't a movie, or mini golf, but only because we passed those places without stopping. I know he wouldn't take me to anything like paintball, because he'd be too afraid to hurt me. Eventually I gave up guessing, and enjoyed the drive. I hadn't given Embry his coat back and I wasn't planning to. It smelled heavenly, just like him. Although I probably looked ridiculous in it, but I loved having Embry wrapped around me.

Embry looked very nervous, although I have no clue why. I am not intimidating, especially to a werewolf so it's not that. I'm sure he's been on lots of dates. I mean he is gorgeous; I'm sure girls asked him out every day. What could he be thinking about to make him look so scared, and shaky.

The car stopped, and I looked around. We were at a beach. That surprised me. Embry ran around the car, to open my door. I thanked him. I noticed the sky was getting darker, so the sun would be setting soon. The few seconds while I was noticing the scenery, Embry had laid down a blanket, and romantic candles. He motioned me over. I sat down with him. I had never had anyone do this, so I was a little speechless.

Without warning, I captured Embry's lips with mine, kissing him deeply. I pulled away for a breath, and I noticed a faint red tinge to Embry's cheeks. It was almost covered by his wide smile, but I could still see it.

"Thank you." I told him staring into his eyes. Taking a second catch his thought he opened a little basket.

"I brought dessert." He replied shyly. My only thought was, Awe!

We enjoyed talking and relaxing together, watching the sun set across the ocean's blue. Everything was perfect, and everything fit.

"I have something to tell you. Please, just hear me through." Embry said out of nowhere. I looked at him, his nervous hands playing together. I noticed his fear had grown, like this was a life or death situation.

I motioned for him to continue. Fear began to creep over my shoulder.

"It's something I've wanted to tell, since the moment I saw you." He told me. I looked at him in confusion, before everything clicked. He was finally going to tell his "secret".

"The truth is… well uh." He tried to find the words. I felt bad for him; he was having such a hard time.

"I'm a werewolf!" He shouted, without thinking. I laughed, just because of the way he did it.

"I'm telling the truth. Don't you believe me?" He asked sincerely. I was unable to control myself; the way his face looked was so funny. I took a second to catch my breath before speaking.

"I believe you." I said.

"No honestly, except we don't need a full moon. Also we look like…" He stopped puzzled.

"Did you say you believe me?" he looked at me in confusion, unsure how to respond.

"Yeah" I giggled.

"You're not freaked out or mad I kept a secret?" He asked in confusion.

"No, everyone has secrets." I replied.

"This is not what I expected." He said obviously lost on what to do. This made me giggle again.

"Why don't you tell me what it's like to be part wolf, all the little things?" I suggested, helping him.

With that he told me all the things I already knew. Explaining everything with such excitement, I was never bored. Then again, I would never be bored listening to his voice. Eventually he got to my favorite part.

"Werewolves have this thing called imprinting. It's how we find our soul mates. It's kind of like when we see that person, our world revolves around them. Like they're holding onto you, instead of the world. You would do anything for them." He told me. Then he took my hand and stared straight in my eyes.

"You are my imprint, my soul." He told me. I already knew this, but it was different coming from Embry. I felt my face flush, and he smiled.

I, not knowing how to be serious, just went.

"This doesn't mean you can see me naked anytime soon." I teased.

"I love you, you silly, silly girl" He told me through his chuckles.

My smile was so wide it was beginning to hurt. Happiness was overcoming me. He took my face in his rough hands and planted his lips on mine. I placed my arms around his neck holding him close. Our lips moved as one, and I never wanted to stop. Unfortunately I couldn't breathe. I pulled away to catch my breath, still holding him close.

I looked into his eyes and I felt guilty. He had told me his biggest secret, and I still kept mine hidden. I was flooded with my guilt, I couldn't hold it in.

"What's wrong?" He asked confused by my sudden change in expression.

"I have a secret too."

Dun Dun Dunnnnn! Wow there you go! He finally told her. Srry about the cliffy, though. cackles evilly . Can anyone guess what her secret is ? Review please!!
