Things we do for sisters
Everything was dark. It´s like when you fall asleep in the afternoon and then when you wake up and you have no idea what time it is or what you´ve missed. I knew I was lying on a couch with many blankets on top of me. I was quite cold so I pulled them up to my chin. The pistachio green colored walls were somewhat familiar to me. I looked in front of me and saw the 42" plasma TV I went to buy with Mr. Jameson for my sister Kayla´s house.
I saw my reflection in the now turned off TV. I had some stiches on my forehead. I slowly sat up and got dizzy the moment my feet touched the ground. The floor of the living room was cold so I looked for my shoes making noise as I did so. I heard footsteps coming from the stairs and the next thing I knew was being blinded by the light in the living room.
"Crap" I mumbled closing my eyes and then slowly opening them as I accustomed to the light.
"What? Elena are you okay? Does something hurt?" I heard a frantic Kayla ask.
"Kayla baby, the light probably hurt her eyes" Mr. Jameson, Reese as he now insisted I call him ever since he started going out with my sister, said.
"Oh god, I´m so sorry! Are you okay? God I've been so worried! Reese said you´d be alright that this has happened before but I wasn´t sure if you´d wake up. Reese found you in your car unconscious. You were so pale and cold I thought that I´d lost you" Kayla rambled on as she enveloped me in a hug.
"I´m fine" I mumbled as Kayla let me go.
Mr. Jameson tuned off the light of the living room and instead turned on a table lamp and gave me coffee. I looked at it with a disgusted face. I hated coffee.
"Elena you know this is the only thing that can boost up your energy" Reese said. I sighed as I took the coffee to my lips and taking a small sip.
"So, Reese said that this…seizure or attack or whatever hasn´t even started yet. Why do they happen?" Kayla asked sitting on the love seat with Reese.
"I´m not really sure but each time one of these seizures happen a physical change occurs or we developed another ability" I explained.
"That´s why you lost so much weight in such little time?" Kayla asked as she recalled the time when I lost about five kilos in a few days in Spain.
I nodded as I took yet another sip of the disgusting coffee.
"What time is it?" I asked as I looked at the darkness outside.
"About seven thirty" Reese said. "How is your head?" He asked.
"Fine, I´m just a bit dizzy. What happened to my forehead?" I asked gesturing my stitches.
"Apparently when you fainted you hit your head against the steering wheel" Reese answered.
"Thanks for patching me up" I said as I took the last sip of my coffee. " I should get going home. " I said.
"Are you going to be alright to go home alone?" Kayla asked.
"Course" I said as I got off the couch, put my shoes on and gave them a hug each.
"If you need anything call me and remember you´re gonna be staying with me for a few days next week" Kayla said.
"Yeah, I´ll remember." I said as I went to the door. "Bye!" I said as Reese gave Kayla a kiss and hugged her from behind. I could still hear Kayla´s giggles as I got into my car.
I arrived home just in time to grab the house phone because it was ringing.
"Yes?" I asked.
"Lena!" Sarah and Amy screamed with delight as soon as they heard me.
"I miss you guys so much!" I screamed into the phone.
"Are you okay? Kayla and Mr. Jameson called and told us that you fainted" Sarah said.
"How´s your forehead?" Amy asked.
"It´s okay, just a few stitches" I said. "How was your arrival?" I asked.
"Horrible" They both said in unison.
"There are some things we need to talk to you about Lena" Amy said and I didn´t like the tone in which she said it.
"Sure, should I log in Skype and then we talk?" I asked.
"Yeah" Sarah said and I hung up.
I got my laptop, sat on the couch Indian style out and logged in Skype. A few moments later I was seeing Amy and Sarah by using the camera and we were talking about Sarah´s brother getting engaged to Isaac´s sister and how Isaac is hitting on Sarah the whole time.
"God I wish I were there to kill him" I said frustrated.
After everything he made Sarah go through how could he now act as if none of that had happened.
"Tell me about it, before I leave I am going to knee him in the balls" Sarah said smirking. Amy giggled.
"What about you Ams?" I asked. Sarah looked at me with a ´you better sit down for this´ face.
"Um… well my mom finally confronted my dad about the whole affair thing" Amy said.
"Did he confess?" I asked.
"No, he denied it all" She sighed.
"Sorry to hear that" I said.
"She found out who her father is having an affair with though" Sarah said softly.
"Who?" I asked, knowing this could not be good.
"My effing aunt" Amy muttered. Ouch.
"Um… I'm sorry to hear that Ams" I said sincerely.
"It is just so messed up" Amy said putting her hands on her face. Sarah put an arm on her shoulder and I wished I could be there to give her a hug.
Amy looked up at me.
"Um… Elena?" She said nervously.
"Yeah?" I said.
"My sister asked me if I could… come back to live here" Amy said.
"And… what did you say?" I asked.
"I don´t know" Amy said.
"I can´t leave you guys. I can´t leave our home. I can´t leave … Seth" Amy finished in a whisper.
"I…" I started to say but the back door opened with a slam and I nearly fell off of the couch.
"What the hell!" I exclaimed as I put the laptop aside and got on my feet.
"Why would you leave me Ams?" Seth asked going towards the laptop.
"Seth!" Both Brady and Embry called. Seth kneeled in front of the laptop.
"You guys were eavesdropping?" I half asked/yelled.
Embry looked at me and our eyes made contact.
I felt my heart beats go faster, my breathe got caught up. I felt as if it had been ages since I had last seen him. He was shirtless as usual. His russet colored skin seemed to shine in the dimly lit living room. His raven colored hair made a fantastic contrast with his skin and it seemed soft and shiny.
"Elena" He breathed as if it had been ages since he had last seen me.
"Ams you can´t leave me!" Seth begged.
I wasn´t able to hear Amy´s reply because a big hot hand caressed my cheek. I looked up and found Embry´s beautiful dark brown eyes.
"What happened to your forehead?" He asked as he examined the rest of my body looking for any other wounds.
"I hit my head against the steering wheel when I was driving earlier" I said half truly.
Embry passed his thumb on my forehead and my breathing hitched when he did so.
"Elena, will you please-"Embry started but I cut him off before he could continue.
"What are you doing here?" I asked.
"Seth got all crazy when he heard what Amy´s sister asked" Brady explained. He was looking at the laptop with a pained expression. I looked at the screen and saw that Sarah was looking down. Trying by all means no to make eye contact with Brady.
"Seth, I don´t know …" Amy started saying.
"You can´t leave me Ams. I´d die without you. Already not seeing you and the fact that you´re angry with me is killing me" Seth said with a pained expression.
"And it´s not because of the imprint" Brady remarked. Sarah looked up and her eyes met Brady´s, but she quickly looked away.
"Seth, I can´t leave my sister" Amy said.
"Then bring her here" Seth begged.
"Her life is here, in Spain" Amy tried to make him understand.
"And yours is here" Seth said softly.
"I don´t know if… it´s because of the imprint or not" Amy started to say softly " But I love you too much to be away from you for too long" Amy said.
A smile appeared on Seth´s face. His face glowed and he looked like the happiest guy on earth. Amy was now looking down and a blush had spread out on her cheeks.
"I love you too Ams" Seth said. "And I´m sorry for everything" Seth said. Amy looked at him and they simply stayed there staring at each other.
I felt heat radiating from behind me. I turned and found Embry. My face and his were inches apart. His hot breath tickled my face and created goose bumps of pleasure appear on my arms. Embry placed his forehead softly on mine.
"I´m sorry Elena, I miss you." He said softly. His face was getting closer to mine slowly.
"Brady, get out of my effing house!" Sarah suddenly screamed.
I got away from Embry and tuned to face the screen.
"Sar, please." Brady begged.
"Just because Amy and Seth are on speaking terms now doesn't mean I have to be on them with you too. I hate you Brady! " Sarah screamed. She got up from wherever she was sitting and disappeared from the screen.
"Sarah!" Brady called.
He started shaking softly.
"Get out" I commanded.
"Elena, can´t we just talk, please?" Embry asked pleading me with his eyes.
"Go away please." I said looking away from him.
Sarah was angry with Brady and I knew it wasn´t easy for her considering how much she liked him, what kind of sister would I be if I was happy with my boyfriend while she was suffering?
Brady started shaking even more.
"Get out" I repeated.
"Bye Ams" Seth said to Amy.
"Seth, you can come back any time to talk with Amy" I said.
"Thanks Lena" he said.
Seth grabbed Brady and took him outside.
Embry stood in the living room. I could feel the tears prickling my eyes.
"Goodbye Embry" I said softly.
"Bye Elena" He mumbled as he left. I heard the door close.
"Lena?" Amy asked.
"We´ll talk tomorrow Ams" I said. I didn't want her to see me cry.
"Ok" She said. I turned off the laptop and felt the tears fall down my cheeks.
I love Embry, but I won´t leave Sarah alone.
