Hi (:
Before you get the wrong impression this is NOT the end of the story. Otherwhise it would be a lame end. Anway, I hope you like it!
(though, I do have lame ends ^^)
And maybe you don't get the impression that Robin wants Embry to leave, but she's just really confused.
I mean, if you just found out that your hot dream guy is real, I would be confused too.
And I do feel sorry for Embry. He has been a nice character all the time =]
xoxo TATF
Embry P.O.V
I ran as fast as I could back to Robin's house - I was late. I was talking to the pack and running at the same time,
and somehow it had gotten me really far away from Robin.
Let her be awake, please. When I was reaching Robin's house, I phased into my human form.
I jumped quietly into her bedroom - which I did rarely, I used to took another way but now I was out of time.
The conversations were the highlights of my day, I couldn't believe that I was so dumb to forget the time and place.
She was laying comfortably in her bed, sleeping beauty. I stroke her hair carefully, and installed myself in the corner of her room.
If she would wake up and saw me, she would assume that she was still dreaming.
Will that ever change? I wondered to myself. It would be better. Way better. Then I could spend every minute of the day with Robin,
if she wanted me around. Only the thought of such a happy life, I was tempted to wake her up and tell her that I was real.
Jake told me that the half vampire, half werewolf creatures weren't a threat anymore - Alice hadn't seen tham in a while.
I suspected that she couldn't see them anymore, because of the werewolf thing, but that doesn't explain the fact that she has seen them.
No, not tonight, I have plenty of time.
And another thing; how did I know that she would react good on me? What if she would be in shock and never want to see me again?
Of course, it will hurt but I could live with that. I wanted the best of her, and if I can't be the best for her then so be it.
I now realized that I was tired because of the running. I hadn't run so much for a while, I got easily tired. You didn't hear me complain, I get so much for in return.
I didn't know when I had fallen asleep, but I had. When I woke up, round 10 o'clock, I saw Robin with a huge smile on her face, watching me.
"Good morning," I yawned. It didn't matter if I talked normal, she'll still think it's a dream. Maybe a day dream now.
"I thought you weren't coming anymore. You were late," she tried to complain, hiding her happiness.
"I'm sorry," I came closer and stroke her cheek, "I'm an idiot that I let you wait."
"It's okay. You're here now."
She sat on her bed, gesturing me to sit next to her.
"So, what were you doing that you're so late?" she asked interested.
"Talking to the pack," I shrugged, "and I ran at the same time. Guess I was so in the conversation that I didn't realize where I was or how far I was."
I was still angry with myself that I'd missed her last night – she was waiting for me. That made me feel guilty.
"But nothing's wrong." It wasn't a question. "You don't look upset, like the first time you got bad news about that creatures," she quickly explained when I looked weird at her.
"Yeah, they don't seem a threat anymore. Alice doesn't see them."
"Isn't that just because of the werewolf.. powers?" She rest with her back against the wall and turned to me.
"That was the first thing I thought when they had told me the news. But how do you explain that she has seen them before? If the werewolf powers would do their job, she couldn't see them anyway."
"I guess you have more experience with werewolves," she sighed.
I laughed. "By the way, I'm a werewolf."
"Serious? I thought you were a cute doggy woggy," she said in a voice like I was a dog. "Maybe I should buy you a dog basket."
"Ha-ha. Very funny." I poked her in her belly and she laughed.
I was fascinated by her smile – she was so cute when she smiled. And lucky me, she smiles a lot.
"I'm hungry," she said and jumped out of the bed. "Can I get you anything?"
Before she had asked her question, she was out of balance. In a reflex, I put one arm under her back and the other around her waist.
I had that sometimes too – if I get too fast out of my bed I only see a dark spot in front of my eyes – like sunglasses but you can't see through them.
She stared at me, and breathed in and out slowly. I wondered what my next move would be. Was she expecting me to.. do something? Like kiss her?
Or was she afraid of that, and wanted she me to release her? I could always try..
I wanted to bent my head towards her, but then I suddenly hesitated. All of a sudden that stupid girl magazines from Leah came in my mind.
The first kiss is like your business card; don't ruin it!
My business card, huh? Oh crap, I should kiss her somewhere else. Somewhere special.
Or.. was she waiting for me to make the first move? Girls, I sighed, they give me a headache.
Then suddenly, I heard a loud laugh right under me.
"What are you doing? You look like you gotta pee!" she laughed louder.
"Actually, I'm kind of fighting with myself," I admitted.
"About what?" Her face was serious now.
"Nothing you should know."
She put on a face. "You're making me curious and that's mean."
"Mean? You just want to know everything."
"About you," she corrected me.
"I feel flattered," I said with a grin.
"You should be. Not everyone get's my attention," she joked.
Right after that, was my second stupid move. Probably the most stupid move in my life.
I was too busy talking to Robin, that I didn't pay attention to other sounds. To different sounds,
for example the one of her friend daisy. She was just picking Robin up, to go to work but that ruined everything for me.
"WHO THE HELL IS HE?" she screamed when she came into her room.
I put Robin on her bed, out of my arms because she wouldn't like what she was about to hear.
"Daisy?" Robin asked confused."What you're doing here?"
"I'm picking you up for work, remember? AND WHAT IS HE DOING HERE?"
Seriously, she was totally flipping. I would say she was Leah the second – maybe I should introduce her to Leah. They would get along perfectly fine.
"Work.. but that's tomorrow."
Daisy grabbed her cell phone out of her bag and showed Robin what the date was.
"Today."
"But… I'm sleeping right now… this can't be.." Robin looked at me and I couldn't tell what she was thinking. Did she hate me already?
"Shall I pinch you to prove it?" she asked, less hysterical.
"What? Auch!" Robin nudged her arm.
"See? You're right awake," she said with triumph, "And who the hell are you and what you're doing here?"
She took a few steppes towards me and it felt like I was in high school again. I was caught with cribbing and now the teacher was going to give me detention.
"My name is Embry Call-"
"Your real name," she snapped at me.
"That is my real name," I said calm and made myself a little bit taller than I was, though I was already much taller than Daisy.
"You think this is funny, don't you? Get outta here!" She looked like she was going to punch me.
Ha, like that would hurt. A broken arm would teach her a lesson – don't punch a werewolf with your hand.
"If you just listened to me! I can prove that I'm Embry!"
"Daisy maybe we should-" That was the first time Robin said something and Daisy cut her off.
"NO! He just needs to get the hell out of here!" She turned her back on me to look at Robin. "What if he's a rapist? Or a murderer?"
"Then he would now have the chance to do it."
"Maybe he's dangerous! I mean, he sneaks into your house for the past two months. Only dangerous, nuts guys do that stuff!"
Was she calling me a rapist and a murderer? Ugh, she's even worse than Leah.
"Girls.. I can prove that I'm Embry."
"Embry, or whoever you are, I want you to get out of my room. Now." Robin ordered softly and I could clearly hear how disappointed she was.
It hurt me. Badly. I opened the window and jumped out of it, without looking at Robin. She shut the window with a loud boom and now I knew that my end had come.
Robin will never look at me again.
