Chapter twenty-one: Suck it up and move on

Jared's P.O.V.

Kim and I were walking hand in hand towards the beach. The others were a bit further ahead than us. We just walked slow. ''Jared'' she said looking at me. ''Yes babe'' I said smiling at her. She smiled back. ''My parents asked if you'd like to eat dinner with us this Friday'' she said kind of unsure. I thought it was a good idea. I don't want them to see me as her boyfriend who they caught 'Making out' with. ''Of course. I will be there'' I said assuring her. ''Okay great'' she said hugging me tight.

We arrived at the beach and it was already becoming darker. The guys had already set up the fire and the logs where we could sit on. I felt a gust of wind fly past me, but it didn't bother me. I felt Kim shudder and looked at her. ''Baby are you cold'' I asked. ''Y-yeah, a-a little b-bit'' she said with chattering teeth. Of course she was cold. She was only wearing a T-shirt. I quickly pulled her to me and held her close, so she could warm up. After a few minutes she stopped shuddering. ''Better now?'' I asked. ''Yeah much better'' she said snuggling even more into my chest. I chuckled and she hit me lightly in the arm.

Kim was introduced to several people. Billy Black, Jacob's dad. Sue Clearwater, Seth and Leah's mom. Quil Ateara sr., Quil's grandpa. Unfortunately Sue's husband, Harry, couldn't be here anymore. He died a few month ago. She was really heartbroken. We all felt really sad. Luckily she was doing way better now.

We sat down and everybody grabbed something to eat. And with something I mean a lot of course. Kim was laughing at me when I practically inhaled my food. She just had a normal portion. Hey, what can I say. I'm a werewolf. I need to eat, you don't want me to get a cranky pants of course, right? When everybody was done eating Billy black started telling the whole story. He looked over to where Kim and me sat and gave me a wink before starting to tell the legends. I smiled, holding Kim close to me.

Billy told everything, except for the part of imprinting. I didn't know why he didn't tell that, but I figured I had to tell Kim myself first. He told about the 'Cold Ones' and the origin of the legend. Once in a while I would glance over at Kim and she seemed really interested in everything what Billy told. But when he told about the 'Cold Ones' she would snuggle closer to me and bury her face in my chest. I just held her and stroked her hair.

''So what did you think of the legends?'' I asked. Everybody was just talking at the bonfire, but I asked Kim to take a walk with me on the beach. Now I was going to tell her, I just had to. She had to know the truth. I couldn't hide it any longer for her anymore. I wanted her to know that she was my soul mate and that fate had brought us together. Just the thought of spending my whole life with her…I just can't even feel more happy about it. While we were walking there I also thought about what could happen if I told her. She could be excited, happy and overjoyed…or she could scream, run away and never maybe never want to see me again. 'No Jared, you can't think like that! She will accept you…everything will work out right!' the voice in my head said. I hoped the voice was right. I couldn't bare it to lose Kim. She was my angel, every time I see her, I just can't be unhappy. I just have to smile. ''It was really nice to listen to Billy. Only the eerie part was the one about the 'Cold Ones''' she said. ''Babe, there is nothing to be afraid of. I'll protect you'' I said stopping us and look into her eyes.

''Kim, I want to say that I love you so much, no matter what ever happens'' I said. she looked confused for a moment, but then her mouth turned into a loving smile. ''I love you too Jared'' she said standing on her toes and kissing me softly on the lips. Her lips were just perfect. So soft and full. I could kiss them all night long, but I knew I had to do it now or I would chicken out again. I pulled away. ''Kim, you just heard the legends right?'' I asked her. ''Yeah of course'' she said. ''Well there is something I need to tell you. It's just that the legends are-'' I was cut off by a loud howl. No…. not now! Why! Of course they needed me. I decided to ignore it. I had to tell her now. ''Kim the legends are-'' I was cut off again. I sighed loudly. Kim looked confused. I grabbed her face in my hands. ''Babe I need to go now. Just stay here okay? I will be back as soon as possible'' I said looking her into the eyes. Her eyes filled with tears. ''What's wrong Jared?'' she asked, her voice cracking. It killed me to see her cry, but I knew I had to go. ''Please Kim don't cry, I'll be back as soon as possible. Just stay here okay'' I said. ''Jared please tell me what's going on'' she begged me. Another howl got my attention. ''I'll explain everything later okay?'' I said kissing her on the lips and running away. I looked back one time, seeing her staring at me. She looked really confused. I knew I had to protect her and the rest of La Push.

Kim's P.O.V.

He just left me standing here. HE LEFT ME! What kind of boyfriend would leave their girlfriend standing on the beach. Oh I know who, Jared! He was going to tell me something, until that howl came. Maybe it had something to do with that? I didn't know. All I knew was that I was really confused right now. I stared at where the bonfire took place. Everyone was still talking and laughing. Jared told me to go back and wait for him to come back. I don't think so. I just decided to walk back home. Even if it would take at least twenty minutes. I was pissed at him for just leaving me. Maybe I'm overreacting a bit, but I don't care right now.

I started walking to the parking lot, towards the road. I didn't want to go to the woods, especially not at night. I loved doing that during the day, but at night it just scared me a bit. And now that howl, I mean what if a wolf or something attacked me? Exactly…that's why I chose the road. I walked down the road and I walked a little bit faster. I felt like I was being watched. I would glance behind my back and find nothing. I was just being paranoid.

After what I predicted 20 minutes, I arrived to my house. I unlocked the door and walked in. my parents were still in the living room and I decided to say goodnight. I wasn't tired, but I just wanted to be alone now. Because, knowing my parents, especially mother, they would ask a lot of questions about what I did this evening. ''Hey mom, Hey dad'' I said. ''Hey Kim, how was your night?'' my mom asked. ''It was okay, but I'm really tired now so I'm going to bed'' I said. ''Oh and Jared can come over Friday'' I said. Friday was already in two days and I didn't know if I'm still going to be pissed at him. ''That's great honey. Go and get some sleep okay'' she said. I smiled and gave both of them a kiss on the cheek. ''Sleep well princess'' my dad said to me. ''Night dad'' I said before going upstairs.

I changed into a tank-top and shorts. I put in my earplugs and listened to some songs of Jay Sean. I really liked his music. His music always made me calm down and I could think about things. I was just thinking about what I was going to do with Jared, but my phone started ringing. I looked at the ID-caller, but I didn't recognize the number. I just let it go and continued to listen to the music. The only thing about letting it ring, was because of my voicemail. My friends said it was funny to make a joke about it, so when I don't pick up my phone you hear a weird voicemail. I just recorded it, but I don't know how to record a new one.

Voicemail;

''Hai, Hi this is Kim. If you are an ex-boyfriend, suck it up and move on. If not, I do have a life that is obviously being used so leave a message and if I have time, I'll try to squeeze you in.''

Robin, Reshma, Dana, Janay in the background;

''WE'RE GOING TO PORT ANGELES BITCHES!''

Told you it was weird, because it meant nothing. Anyways I just have to change it!

I decided to go to the library tomorrow. Maybe I could find some more information about the legends. I really wanted to know if Jared had something to do with it. After a lot of thinking I finally fell asleep, not getting Jared out of my head.

Jared's P.O.V

Sam called us all because some leech was running on our territory. I was really pissed, not only at the leech but also at Sam. I knew we had to protect the people, but why just when I'm going to tell my imprint the truth. I growled in frustration. 'Man calm down, just get this leech and you can get to Kim again' Paul said trying to calm me down. 'Yeah okay, let's get this leech!' I said moving faster. Only so I could be with Kim.

She was not easy to catch. She was always just a little too fast. It wasn't till the point where we all circled her and she couldn't get away anymore. she looked around trying to get an escape. We all growled. Sam nodded and Paul, Sam and me ran towards her. Paul pinned her down to the ground. She was going down. Sam sank his teeth into her arm and she yelped in pain. Embry, Jake and Quil were starting the fire. I helped Sam. I ripped her from limb to limb. That's what she gets from having me to take away from my imprint.

We set her on fire and we all phased back, watching till she was completely gone. I wanted to go back to the bonfire. Just explain everything to Kim. ''Come on, let's go back to the bonfire'' Sam said. When he said that, we all ran back as fast as we could. Especially me. I didn't want Kim to be mad at me for just walking away like that. Well it was for a good cause, but Kim didn't know that yet.

We arrived back and I searched for Kim. I didn't see her and I panicked. I turned to the guys. ''Where is she?'' I said. ''I don't know man, I thought she was here'' Paul said shrugging his shoulders. I looked on the beach and searched for her, but she wasn't there. I asked all the people that were sitting there, but nobody saw her. ''I'm going to find her'' I said to Paul. ''Will you call her? maybe she'll answer'' I asked him. ''Yeah of course man'' Paul said. he pulled out his phone and called her. I ran to the woods and phased running to her house. She could be home. Yes that's it! She's just home. I hope.

I arrived at her house and walked to her window. I heard heavy breathing and sighed in relieve. She was home. Why didn't she wait for me? Was she mad at me? I felt the presence of Paul. 'Hey man. She's in her bed. Thanks for calling her' I said. 'Hey man, I'm sorry to say this, but I think she kind of broke up with you' he said. 'What? What do you mean?' I said confused. 'Let me show you, or just listen' he said. he showed me the message of Kim's voicemail. She wanted me to suck it up and move on. What did I do to make her so upset? Was it because I left her on the beach. 'Maybe man, I really don't know. You should talk to her tomorrow' he said. 'Yeah I guess' I sighed and ran into the woods. I let out a long sad howl. I went home and walked straight upstairs to my bedroom, not making an effort to change my clothes. That night I didn't sleep at all. I just wanted Kim and nobody else.
