Author's Note
Just a quick note, Bella is on school vacation so she doesn't have to worry about going to school just yet and Quil is home schooled.
Bella's POV
Quil and I lay together for what felt like hours just talking, getting to know each other, just after the sun set Quil broke the comfortable silence we had been waiting in for the last few moments
"I have patrol in half an hour, can you stay again tonight I really want to come home to you again" Quil asked rolling on his side and lightly kissing my lips
"I'll call Charlie and ask, what time is your mum getting home?" I asked happy that he had asked me to stay
"She has night shift till eleven, if Charlie says you can stay I can drop you at Emily's, Sam's on patrol with me tonight so she might want some company"
"That sounds nice" I said and nuzzled his neck. After I'd spoken to Charlie and he said its fine for me to stay another night as long as Quil came for dinner tomorrow night and brought me home. Quil and I dressed and walked hand in hand to Emily and Sam's who turned out were only a short walk through the forest if you knew which way to go when we entered Sam and Emily's backyard I stopped Quil by tugging on his hand
"What's wrong?" Quil asked concern laced in his voice
"I don't want you to go" I said pouting and feeling generally upset, he hadn't even left yet and I missed him
"I don't want to go either but we can't spend every moment together, even if it is hell being away from you. Your safety means everything to me" Quil said and wrapped his arms around me and I pressed my cheek to his bare chest wrapping my arms around his waist
"I'll miss you" I said then reached up on my tiptoes to kiss him, I meant it to be a chaste kiss but it got deeper and more urgent until Sam yelled from somewhere behind me
"Come on Lover boy, Say goodbye to Bella" breaking our moment Quil grinned down at me as I blushed
"I'll see you later baby" he placed one last kiss on my lips and jogged towards the tree line where Sam had disappeared moments before, I sighed and walked towards the house.
"Emily?" I called walking in through the back door
"In the kitchen Bella!" Emily called back It's Emily of course she's in the kitchen. I wandered into the kitchen to see Emily at the bench spooning muffin mix into a muffin tray
"Hey Bells, it's good to see you" Emily said leaning over and kissing me on the cheek as I came to stand beside her
"You too Em, what are you making?" I asked dipping my finger into the mix and licking it tasting chocolate
"Chocolate cupcakes for Sam when he gets of patrol there his favorite" Emily said smiling warmly at me and I wandered if I should do something like that for Quil
"Well the mix taste great" I said
"Sooo Bella tell me, how are you and Quil" Emily said sounding excited like a school girl and a huge grin came over my face as I thought back to earlier
"Were great, really great Emily, he makes me so happy" I said feeling a little teary
"Of course he makes you happy Bella, he's you imprint your perfect match" Emily said "Speaking of while I have you here I wanted to talk to you about your imprint celebration" I looked at her confused
"My what?" I asked
"Well, every time a new member gets introduced to the pack or a wolf imprints we hold a celebration it's a way of not only welcoming a new member but a chance to celebrate something that's usually so hard for the guys, it makes things a little bit easier" Emily explained "Sam and I had a barbeque for ours and Jared and Kim did a dinner at Jared and Pauls place" (the live together) "So it's really up to you and Quil what you'd like to do, the whole pack will be invited so it has to be somewhere big enough not to mention the elders and Quil's Mom" I nodded and thought about it for a few moments before realising the perfect location
"How about a bonfire, I mean Quil imprinted on me at a bonfire so its special to us but we should do it on the beach this time" I said and I knew Quil would love the idea
"That sounds wonderful Bella, when would you like to do it?" Emily asked going into planning mode
"How about Saturday, it means we have two days to prepare and no one is likely to be working because it's a weekend," I said now excited
"Saturday should be fine, I'll run it by Sam and the Elders but I'm sure it'll work for everyone, now let's talk food.." Emily said and then the conversation shifted to the kind of food we would have and if we wanted music that sort of things, and before I knew it planning was in full swing.
QUIL'S POV
I finished my patrol and phased inside the woods just outside Sam and Emily's backyard stretching my muscles and trying to get used to being human again after almost 5 hours of running on four paws, Sam was covering Jareds patrol for the next half hour so he could go to Kim's younger brothers recital so I was alone. I pulled my shorts on and made my way across the back yard I could hear Bella's beautiful laugh coming from upstairs and I heard Emilys voice but was too far to determine what she was saying but Bella laughed again I pushed open the back door and called out as I wiped my feet on the map
"Em? Bells?"
"Up here baby! But don't come up I have a surprise" She called down sparking my curiosity and then I heard her on the stairs and as she appeared at the bottom my breath caught in my throat…
There we go guys!
