I do not own Twilight
"Embry, can you taste one of these for me?" I smiled sweetly as I approached my best friend, he frowned at the bowl of Skittles in my hand.
"Why?" He eyed me up suspiciously.
"Because, they might be sour and I don't like the sour ones, so I need you to try one for me" I smiled even more sweetly as I said it. Fluttering my eye lashes as I went.
"You're a strange one" He shook his head and grabbed a handful of the little colourful sweets, as he put them in my his mouth I tipped the bowl over his head and loads of little skittles went pouring over him.
"TASTE THE RAINBOW, FEEL THE RAINBOW" I yelled at him as he stood blinking with a confused expression on his face.
There was an eruption of laughter behind me as the guys sat watching me pour skittles over Embry, who was still blinking and scratched his head in confused annoyance.
"Lottie, you better clean that up!" Emily scolded me from the porch; at least I did it outside.
I turned around with a triumphant smile on my face, the whole pack was here, even the baby wolves, they were all laughing at the scene in front of them and I walked proudly back to my place with Paul.
"He is going to get you back baby" Paul whistled to me as I sat on his lap.
"I count on it, but I have my big macho body guard to protect me right?" I fluttered my eyes sweetly at Paul and he let out into a big grin and nodded.
Mwahahahahaa, I have reinforcements.
I looked back across at Embry, Claire was helping him get the skittles out of his shirt, but he pulled a funny face and ran to the trees, he looked like he was pulling out a wedgie, a wedgie full of colourful balls of happiness, mwahaahahahah.
It was 10pm, the food was currently being demolished by the pack and so Emily was making more while Sam snuck beer to everyone, except the baby wolves, even I drew the line at giving them beer and so I walked around behind Sam taking beer off the boys he gave it too that were too young and replaced it with a can of coke. This was obviously met with groans and a few slight insults.
I was sat with the girls taking excitedly about the presents I had finally got around to opening from my mom and Scott for Christmas, I had got loads of clothes and shoes. Leah stopped mid sentence and stared suspiciously at someone behind me.
"Umm Lottie can I speak to you?"
I looked up, Embry was stood looking innocent as he stared down at me. I frowned, this could be potentially dangerous.
I looked around for Paul, he wasn't out here. Ok, scrap the reinforcement idea.
"Why?" I frowned again at Embry.
"I just need to speak to you, it's not part of the game, if I don't say it now I never will" He sounded genuine.
I stood up and he took my hand, leading me into the trees slightly, I glanced back at Leah and she shrugged.
We stopped just a bit in and he turned me to face him.
"Remember that time you kissed me?" His voice was low and he was staring at me deadly serious.
I nodded.
"I said it felt wrong, well it didn't, it felt amazing, I'm in love with you Lottie, leave Paul for me, I love you so much and always have" He stepped closer to me.
Oh crap. I stepped back but his hands grabbed my shoulders and pulled me closer to him, his lips pouted and eyes were shut like he was leaning in for a kiss. He looked and sounded like he was being serious, Paul will flip. I will flip. What is he doing? Maybe I led him on. Maybe I was too friendly.
I seemed to freeze, not knowing what to do as my best friend leant further in to my face.
I could feel his breath on me, the heat from his face beat down on mine, and it felt uncomfortable.
"eek" I let out the most pathetic squeal as he rounded on me and his face split into a smile and he burst out laughing.
"Ahhhhhh your face! Priceless absolutely priceless" Embry started slapping his thighs with laughter.
"Not funny Embry!" I smacked his arm and turned to walk away, leaving him in his laughing fit behind me.
Stupid boy. Never trusting him again. Never.
I stomped back into the yard and the guys were all looking over smirking, they all knew his plan. Even Paul was chuckling to himself as I walked back to the girls. Paul.
"So much for being my bodyguard!" I scowled at him and he winked.
Stupid wolves.
"5 minutes to midnight!" Emily's voice chimed over the excited chatter in the yard, Embry and Quil had walked over to the other little clearing away from the house to do the fireworks. Which I still felt uneasy about.
"Sam, I am telling you, it would be more responsible if you went and did this" I scowled at Sam who was stood hugging Emily.
"And I am telling you to shut it" He squinted at me and poked his tongue out.
"What's the plan of action for Embry now, currently it is 1-1, so you need to pull something back to be in the lead, I am official score keeper" Kaden popped up next to me smiling.
I turned to face him, I liked this kid.
"Hmmm, I am not sure, but my evil genius mind will think of something" I poked his nose gently and he chuckled.
Paul walked behind me, wrapping his big arms tightly around my waist as Emily began excitedly watching her clock.
I looked back to the trees, Embry was walking through back to the yard and Jacob walked past him toward the clearing where Quil was.
I frowned, this does not look good.
"Embry?" Sam looked across at him and frowned.
"I aimed the firework wrong so Quil told me I had to leave, Jacob's doing it instead, he's more responsible" He did air quotes as he said responsible and I laughed.
He looked so kid like as he whined.
"Told you Sam, told you he would kill us" I glared at Sam who rolled his eyes again.
"AHHHHH 10, 9 8,7" Emily started counting down and the others joined in.
I smiled as Paul pulled me around to face him, his eyes baring down into mine, making my breath stop as always. He was breathtaking beautiful. His eyes danced around sparkling as they searched mine. I smiled, and the blush crept on my cheeks again.
"HAPPY NEW YEAR!"
I giggled and Paul pulled me into him, placing a soft warm kiss on my cold lips, his hands squeezed at my hips as his tongue slipped in. There were chants and cheers around us but I ignored it, I was completely wrapped up in my man.
He pulled back and rested his forehead on mine.
"Happy new years baby girl" He whispered, placing a light kiss on the end of my nose. I smiled.
"Happy new years, hope this one has less dramatic vampire attacks" I teased and Paul gripped my hips tighter.
"No dramatic vampire attacks, no one is getting slightly close to you without my say so" He leant in and kissed me lightly again as a firework went off. I giggled and turned to look at the display. They were doing pretty good to be fair. They were all shooting into the sky rather than the house.
I stood in silence watching, smiling as Paul kissed my neck slightly and whispered sweet I love yous into my ear. Everything was perfect, and then Embry's booming voice piped up from the tree line.
"NO QUIL NOT THAT ONE, THATS THE ONE I AIMED AT THE HOUSE, DUCK AND ROOOOOOOOLL!" he span around, running straight for me, Paul let his grip go and stepped away from me as Embry went plummeting into me at a speed that sent us both flying through the air, he span around so I landed on top of him but it was still with a hard thud.
I screeched from confusion as he held me close.
"Embry Call, get off me right now!" I screeched as I threw hits into him, he started laughing as did the other guys.
"eurgh" I landed another hit into him and stood up, dusting myself off.
"You idiot, you could have broke me, fat idiot" I kicked him in the thigh and turned to glare at Paul. He was laughing.
"Thanks for that, no one is getting slightly close to you" I mimicked his deep voice from like 5 minutes earlier and he grinned and shrugged at me.
"Ok, make that 2-1, Embry's winning" Kaden sounded slightly disappointed as he said it.
I turned and scowled at Embry who was high fiving Jared, then Jacob who had walked back into the yard with Quil. Even Paul was chuckling away with the boys.
I turned to the girls and they nodded in agreement with my silent plans. This had turned in to boy's vs. girls. And I was not going to lose against a bunch of overweight wolves. Even Emily had a slight evil glint in her eyes as she turned and walked into her house to get the midnight feast she had prepared for the boys.
Just a little bit of prank fluff and slight Paul/Lottie fluff :)
mwahahahahaa
