Outtake 6 – Damien Grant & Sarah Black Part 2
(A/N: Takes place during the first half of Chapter 19.)
Sarah's POV
I didn't know what was going on, but I sure liked it. The feeling was priceless. Meeting him felt like he was the one thing that tied me to the earth, the power that ruled me now, more than anything. He was my universe.
Damien.
There's just something about Damien that made me feel… drawn to him. He is just so… cute. I just want to get to know him, be his friend.
And that's what I did asking Damien to have lunch with me. I've spent that time getting to know him, everything about him. He's just amazing the more I got to know him. What's more, Damien is in all of my classes except Biology. And he knows who I am! It made me so euphorically happy to hear that.
After school ended, I asked Damien for his number which he gave it to me as I gave him mine. I sadly said goodbye to Damien and met up with my family. My great aunts, Alice, Rosalie and Krystal, my grandmother Bella and godmother Lucina were smiling when I joined them but my older twin brother Evan, my grandfather Edward and great uncles Emmett and Lucas weren't; more like glaring and they were at Damien who I heard him gulp and turned away to get a ride with Luna.
"That wasn't nice Thomas." I thought to Evan so he could hear my thoughts. Me showing my thoughts to Evan while he does it like how he does it in his wolf form is hardly a difference to tell who's using their gifts to do this.
"What, he deserved it." Evan thought. "Get in." He said out loud and I joined him and Lucien in Evan's car as we and the rest of our family were on our way to the main house.
"What's up with him?" I asked Lucien.
"Well you know how Evan was hoping you imprinting on someone were to never happen? Well it happened." Lucien answered.
"Oh." I said feeling like I blushed. "So how come I've never seen Damien in class before?" I asked Lucien.
"I'm surprised you didn't know." Lucien chuckled and I reached over and slapped his head. "OW!"
"Be serious!" I said.
"You never asked before." Lucien said rubbing his head as we arrived at the main house. We got out of the car and Evan was the first one inside when we came in.
"WHAT!" Dad shouted causing Lucien to jump when we came inside to see dad in the living room along my other great Aunt and Uncle, Tiffany and Jalen. Dad just stood there looking angry after Evan just stared at him. Thomas, what did you tell dad?
"Okay, if you're gonna shout like that Jacob, you might cause an earthquake." Jalen said closing his laptop as Tiffany, having a personal day off from teaching, lifted her head off from his shoulders. "What's up?" He asked as my great grandparents Carlisle and Esme and my mom joined in. That caused most of the guys to look at me.
"I met this guy." I said shyly with a blush. Esme's face lit up as mom squealed running over to hug me.
"Who's the guy?" Tiffany asked, smiling.
"She imprinted on Damien." Lucien answered.
"Calvin's son?" Carlisle asked in surprised as Lucien nodded to him before he laughs.
"I don't like him!" Dad said. Are you kidding me?
"Jake." Mom said to him
"But you don't even know him yet dad." I said.
"I already know enough coming from Evan!" Dad said.
"But you never heard my side of the story." I said.
"Fine, show it to me." Dad said. I did so showing dad my thoughts like how mom does it except I don't need to touch people. I showed dad how I first met Damien and everything I've learned about him from today.
"I still don't like him." Dad said after I was done showing it to him. Seriously?
"You're being ridiculous Jake." Mom said shaking her head.
"Well at least Jacob knows how I feel about him and Nessie." Grandpa Edward said.
"And you know how Charlie felt with you and Bella." Dad said to him.
"Like I said, you're being ridiculous Jake." Mom said.
"All the guys are being ridiculous." Grandma Bella said to mom.
"Not me and Bryce." Jasper said.
"What is with you guys? Why are all you acting so strange?" I asked them.
"We have our reasons!" Emmett said earning a slap in the head by Rosalie. "OW!"
"Would you boys just get over it already? What's done is done." Rosalie said.
"Not yet," Lucas said. "Because Damien hasn't made it official so that gives us a chance to –"
"NO!" I yelled causing Lucas to give out a scream looking totally freaked out jumping into grandpa Edward's arms making them both look like Shaggy and Scooby-Doo when I ran at him as Evan and Emmett hugged each other.
"You will not hurt Damien!" I said. "That goes for all of you boys! If you ever try to lay even a scratch on Damien, I swear to God I will rearrange of your bones into each other's bodies, understand?!" I asked causing Evan, Lucas, Emmett and Grandpa Edward to shake their heads vigorously. They better because Damien is everything to me.
"You guys are such wusses." Bryce said laughing and I turned to see Lucien cowardly behind him as Lucas looks to see who was holding him until he jumps off of Grandpa Edward. Okay, so I still have issues with my temper since I was three which doesn't help with my phasing nowadays. It's not my fault I get annoyed mostly by my idiot brother.
"They don't have what we have Bryce." Jasper said to Bryce laughing.
"You guys are making a big deal out of nothing." Lucina said.
"Oh so you're okay with Lucien being with Luna?" Evan asked her.
"Lucien deserves what he's been given. That's the same for you Evan with you and Korrina and that means Sarah deserves the same with her and Damien." Lucina said.
"Thanks Lucina! You're the best godmother ever!" I said hugging Lucina. This is why I love her so much!
"I'm your only godmother." Lucina smiled.
"Hey, that was my line to you." Lucas said causing Lucina to giggle.
"So that's seven of us that support Sarah and Damien," Krystal said counting off of Rosalie, Alice, grandma Bella, mom, Lucina, me and herself. "And five of you guys that are against it. Looks like we got a winner." She said laughing at Grandpa Edward, Emmett, dad, Lucas and Evan.
"Hold on, there's still more people that hasn't vote yet." Emmett said turning to those who didn't vote. "Come on guys, back us guys up here." He said.
"Why? Sarah seems happy about it so why shouldn't I be?" Esme said smiling in amusement. I love Esme's love and support.
"I'm with her on that." Bryce said. And I love Bryce for being an amazing godfather including with his charm.
"Way to help the gender." Emmett said to Bryce.
"Sorry boys but I'm with them on this." Tiffany smiled.
"Same here not because I go where Tiffany goes but I enjoy doing this." Jalen said grinning wrapping his arm around Tiffany earning a kiss from her. Yes!
"I approve." Carlisle smiled.
"Lucien, don't you dare!" Evan said to him. Lucien sighed causing Grandpa Edward and Evan to groan. Greatest cousin ever!
"Sorry guys." Lucien said.
"You have got to be kidding me!" Lucas said in disbelief.
"Ah come on!" Emmett complained.
"Hey it was never my business when I knew Damien has a crush on Sarah since the first day and I never meddle in it like Alice does," Lucien said causing Alice to give him a 'hey!' look. "So why should I get in between this?"
"Oh I don't know so it's to make sure this guy doesn't hurt Sarah?!" Dad said.
"Alright boys, that's enough." Esme said breaking up the argument.
"First Evan and now Sarah, this gets better by the second." Tiffany chuckled. After settling the case on both sides, everyone went off to their daily lives around the house.
"Damien has a crush on me?" I asked Lucien. Hearing this made my heart leap. I saw Evan gave Lucien a dirty look before Lucien turned to me.
"Okay you didn't hear it from me hearing it from Luna even though I knew it myself but yeah Damien has a thing for you." Lucien said to me causing me to smile big. I can't believe it, he really likes me?! Why didn't Lucien tell me this before?
"I will kill you for not telling me Lou!" Evan said to Lucien.
"How was I supposed to know that Sarah would imprint on him?" Lucien asked.
"I don't know, just tell me still!" Evan said throwing his arms around wildly. Lucien rolled his eyes and turned to me.
"And Damien's in all of my classes except Biology?" I asked.
"Yep and if it makes you even happier, he sits next to you in all of them." Lucien said earning a murder look from Evan as I was bursting into happiness. How come no one told me this?
"You like him don't you?" Lucien asked me.
"I don't think so," I said slowly blushing. Maybe I do. He's so handsome and very sweet. It made me feel something I've never felt in all my life. Then I said quietly. "I'm in love with him."
"Oh hell no!" Evan said and I saw Lucien grabbed Evan's shirt from behind while he is running in place towards the door.
"Look, don't say anything I told you okay? For these guys' sake, don't rush things between you and him until he thinks he's ready." Lucien said to me as Evan stopped what he was doing.
"I would never force him into it." I said. Just because Damien has feelings for me doesn't mean I should just jump right in and ask him to be my boyfriend. That's not how imprinting works. Whatever he wants me to be, I'll be that kind of person to him.
I looked up to see Evan giving a dirty look to Lucien causing him to chuckle. I wonder what's so funny.
"Well then, you guys wanna chill in Red Lake?" Lucien asked.
Damien's POV
I was just sitting in the waiting area listening to The Weeknd on my phone when I heard my name.
"Hey," I pulled out my headphones out of my ears when I saw dad coming up to me out of his work clothes. "Sorry about that. Ready to go?"
"Yeah." I said putting my phone in my pocket and grabbing my bag and dad and I left the hospital and riding in his car taking us to Luna's house for dinner.
We were running a bit late due to dad having to fill in for one of the doctors who had to take care of a patient; a man in his fifties who fell on his ass from falling down flights of stairs. Don't ask.
"So Damien, care to explain why you didn't tell me about you and Sarah having a thing now?" Dad asked smirking causing me to turn red in embarrassment.
Ever since yesterday, Sarah and I actually became friends. I don't know how it happened but it did. Last night, Sarah and I were texting each other nonstop. She's better than I dreamed of her to be.
"How did you know about that?" I asked since I never told dad about it… yet.
"Carlisle told me." Dad said in a 'duh' tone. Aw man. What is with the Cullens? Who blabbed it to him? "So you finally asked her out huh?"
"She and I just… talked." I said.
"And then you asked her out?" Dad asked smiling.
"Uh I did… in here." I said tapping my head. May I say it was so easy to do so?
"Damien, let me explain something to you," Dad said. Oh boy, here it comes. "It might be a bit more satisfying if you ask her out, out here." He said moving his hand in the air of a small circle while he's still driving.
"Maybe but dad, we're talking about Sarah Black, from the Cullen family." I said. "A family who you know them to be wealthy to afford a family this big and to be extremely beautiful. And even if by some miracle she did go out with me, it would probably go downhill."
"And how would it go?" Dad asked in amusement.
"Something like this," I said. "Say we're at this restaurant sitting together, just the two of us. I'd try and be cool, kind and funny and Sarah would laugh at my jokes and blush at my words to her. Everything is going great."
"So what's wrong with that?" Dad asked.
"I didn't even finish!" I said as dad laughs. "Anyway, then I excuse myself to go to the bathroom. Sarah tells me to hurry back. I get out of my seat and left the table."
"Not more than two seconds when I walked away, I turned around to smile to Sarah only to see Sarah being surrounded by like seven or eight guys who are way better looking than me. One of them was sitting in my seat and was whispering something in Sarah's ear causing her to giggle."
"I try to get through to her… but to no avail. She was gone. Those guys weren't even trying to kick me out of Sarah's life. It was like they hardly lifted a finger or even moved a muscle." I finished.
"Okay Damien, you're overreacting about this." Dad said. "I didn't think I had a chance with your mother when we met at college and look how we turned out then."
"I'm pretty sure the situation with me and Sarah is quite different from you and mom." I said.
"Well you're not gonna know things if you don't do it. Or at least try. Damien, you've been crushing on her since the first day and this is the chance for you to give things a try with Sarah. Luna did it with Lucien so I'm sure you can do the same." Dad said.
"I'll try. That is if I have the guts to do so and not embarrass myself to death." I said causing dad to chuckle as he pulled over on the driveway of Luna's house.
"Looks like Lucien's here as well." Dad said and I looked over to see sure enough to recognize Lucien's car next to Luna's and Maureen's. I guess Lucien here to give Luna a hand since those two have English together.
Dad and I got out of the car and went to the front door where dad rang the doorbell. The door opened and Maureen was the one who answered.
"Hello boys." She smiled.
"Hey, sorry we're late. I had to fill in for one of the doctors at work." Dad said as Maureen let us inside.
"That's okay; dinner's not ready yet so you boys make yourselves comfortable." Maureen said causing dad to smile at her. "I believe they are upstairs." She told me.
"Cool." I said taking my bag and head on upstairs and made it to Luna's room. "Hey Luna, and I assume Lucien's here judging from the car I saw outside, sorry I'm late, dad had a – oh." I stopped when I arrived at Luna's room and saw not only Luna, Lucien and Korrina here, but also Evan and,
"Hi Damien!" She said, smiling so happily.
"Sarah!" I cried almost falling down but regained my balance on the door. Shit, I wasn't expecting Sarah to be here, outside of school!
I cleared my throat. "I mean uh, hey Sarah." I said trying to act cool. "Uh what are you doing here?" I asked.
"Oh I'm just doing homework with Lucien and Luna. What are you doing here?" Sarah asked, still smiling.
"Well, my dad and I have dinner here with Luna and her family and she and I do homework together most of the nights. I mean it's not like a study date, it's just that, she and I are friends, not that I don't think she's, I mean –" Ah man, I'm screwing up big time! Why can't I shut up?! I thought while stuttering. I heard Lucien laughing along with Luna while Sarah and Korrina giggled and Evan was dead silent, glaring at me. Man, this could not be any more embarrassing.
"Come on Damien, you can join us. I need your help on that Biology homework." Luna said clearing some space for me to use.
"Here Damien, you can sit next to me." Sarah said shyly as she patted a spot next to her.
"O-O-O-Okay." I said nervously as I walked over and sat down between Sarah, and Evan. Once I did, Evan never took his eyes off of me still glaring.
Okay, I know he looks funny wearing makeup on his face, a princess tiara on his head and a pink boa around his neck but Evan is still intimidating judging by his size. I knew there was gonna be a problem with me starting to get close to Sarah. Was I hearing things or did I hear a growl? Whatever it is, I gulped suspecting it was Evan and that caused Sarah to glare at Evan.
"Come on Evan, I wanna do more makeup on you." Korrina said excitedly getting up and grabbing his hand while Evan had a now horrified look on his face causing Lucien to laugh like crazy. Oh thank you Korrina!
"Um, sure Kori." Evan said and then reached over to grab Lucien's shoulder giving him a pleading look. Lucien just chuckled earning a 'I'm gonna murder you!" look before he was tugged out of the room by Korrina. Okay, glad that was taken care of.
"Um Damien, did you get any notes down in algebra? I think I missed some during class." Sarah asked me.
"Uh yeah, I wrote them down. Here, I can show you and maybe help." I said turning a bit pink as I pulled out my notebook and opened it to show Sarah.
Man, I've been dreaming about this my whole life since the beginning; I wrote all my notes so that one day if Sarah misses class I can show them to her. I think I'm already at first base now! Score!
I started telling Sarah what I got. Through it all, Sarah was staring at my face. It was hard to tell whether she was actually listening to me or just staring.
"And that's it." I finished causing Sarah to look like I had broken her from a trance, still smiling. Man I love that smile.
"Thanks Damien, you're a lifesaver." She said causing me to blush.
"Uh I uh, no problem." I said where I might have squeaked.
"Guys, dinner's ready." Maureen called.
"I guess we should go." Lucien said.
"Oh," Sarah said as her face fell. "Yeah I guess so."
"Hey Damien, Luna's borrowing my notes for Biology so when she's done, she can give them to you so you can return them to me in Algebra." Lucien said. Huh? Wait, oh shit!
"Oh god Luna, I'm so sorry! I totally forgot to help you with that!" I said, panicking.
"It's alright; Sarah needed you help and Lucien has what I needed so there are no worries." Luna smiled to me.
"Okay." I said.
"Come on you two," I turned around to who spoke. Ah man. I thought seeing Evan sticking his head out the door with no tiara and boa and makeup free. "We gotta go. Sarah, we got some business to take care of back home." He said to her after giving me a quick glare that I almost pissed myself.
"Okay," Sarah said still sounding disappointed to leave. "Thanks for helping me Damien." She said giving me a small smile.
"N-No problem." I stuttered as we got up and I was so nervous with Sarah being this close to me as I was putting my books away in my bag when my one of my notebooks fell out and onto the floor between me and Sarah.
Oh shit! I thought as Sarah looked at my notebook the same time I did. God kill me where I stand! Why? Because my notebook opened to the page where I written out 'Sarah Rose Grant' like a million times all over it! Why does this keep happening to me?! I looked from the corner of my eye looking nervous hoping Sarah wasn't angry or embarrassed or anything.
Much to my surprise, her lips grew big to a smile as she dreamily looked at my notebook. I heard a scuffle and I turned to see Lucien holding off Evan who is targeting me with a murder look on his face while Luna was laughing. Okay one, how is Lucien able to hold Evan when he has muscles like that and second, oh double shit!
"Okay, let's go big boy!" Lucien said getting Evan out of Luna's room. I turned to see Sarah picking up my notebook and as she did, she got a closer look to what was written on the page and I just froze there dumbly.
Well, what could I have said to make this situation any less awkward, huh? If I had opened my mouth then things would have definitely got more awkward so I just finally shut my mouth for once and just looked at Sarah.
Great spirits, just take me away! Sarah Rose Black of all people had seen the most private page of my notebook and she was just staring at it with a smile tucked on her lips. Just when I started to drop my gaze from Sarah's face, her eyes held mine.
"I like the sound of it." Sarah said as she gave me back my notebook and I was like stunned at her words as my heart started beating like crazy as hell.
Did she mean the sound of Sarah Rose Grant? No way, she could never have meant that!
"T-T-T-The sound of what?" I asked dumbly as I took my notebook and put it in my bag.
Sarah smiled. "Sarah Rose Grant." Oh sweet god! The sound of it from Sarah's mouth made me burst with happiness, my heart was pounding and I was about to pass out any minute now, in a good way.
"Bye Damien. Bye Luna." Sarah said to us and left the room but not before she gave me one last smile and wave to me directly.
What the hell just happened?! I thought as I heard Sarah and the others left the house and Lucien's car pulled out of the driveway.
"Someone's really thinking about the future." I turned to see Luna giggling.
"You weren't supposed to see that! No one was supposed to see that!" I said feeling my ears going warm.
"Oh Damien, there's nothing to be embarrassed about." Luna smiled. "Sarah seems pleased about it."
"You don't know that." I said.
"So she wasn't smiling because you put your surname with her full name?" Luna smirked. Gah! Why?!
"C-C-Come on, dinner's probably getting cold." I said leaving the room with a laughing Luna behind me as we entered the dining room for dinner with my dad, Maureen and Korrina.
Okay yes, I was beyond happy that Sarah loved the idea of her name with my last name but that was so embarrassing when she discovered something personal of mine. None of the less, all I could think about was of how Sarah said 'Sarah Rose Grant' and the sound of it rolled right off the tongue. God I just never wished for this to never end.
