Well, you guys got lucky. I am home sick with the flu so that means more time to write. Haha. Thank you for all of the reviews. They mean so much to me!!

SM owns Twilight.

I woke up feeling better than I had in years.

Then Leah came in. "I have to say, I'm a little disappointed, Jake. Only texing? No phone sex?"

"Shut up. I learned a lot about her."

"Like what sexy Halloween costume she wore last year…"

I jumped out of bed. She was standing in my doorway, holding my phone. "Gimme me back my damn phone!"

Leah laughed and threw it to me. "Calm down. Seth made omelets."

That perked me up. I loved food. I wolfed down (pun intended) 3 omelets and hopped in the shower.

"Right. Now he has to look all pretty for work." Embry said when I came out of my room dressed in my least raggedy sweats and tee shirt.

"I think I liked you better yesterday when you were giving me your pep talks." I mumbled as we walked to the car.

Embry prattled on about me not getting laid last night until we pulled into the parking lot. Her Jag was here.

I caught a glance of her in a nice mini skirt and brown shirt with matching boots. I wonder why she wore brown?? Humm….

As usual, with the exception for yesterday, Carlie was the first one in. We both kinda looked around casually before I pulled her into a hug. "Sleep good?"

"Alright."

We sprang apart when the locker room door opened. Leslie came into the gym next. "Hey Carls!" she greeted. "Hi Mr. Wolfe." She greeted in a seductive voice.

Carlie shifted uncomfortably. I looked away from Leslie. "Hi."

"So," she purred, "what are we doing?"

I frowned. "Same as yesterday, floor hockey." I said dryly.

"Oh. I like floor hockey." She replied.

"Floor hockey is how I stay in shape." Carlie added with a smile at me.

I smiled back.

Leslie looked between us. I wasn't worried. She was kind of a dumbass. "Ooook."

Leslie dragged Carlie over to a corner and talked in hushed tones until the rest of the class came in.

"Ok. Floor hockey again. Split yourselves into two teams. And go."

I literally did nothing during that period, except watch Carlie trip Cook. I decided not to do anything about it.

Before they left for second period, she stopped in my office. "Andrew hates you, you know."

"The feeling is mutual." I said simply, getting up and kissing her cheek.

She laughed. "So you have favorites? I'm not quite sure that's allowed."

"I only have one favorite, many middle-of-the-roads, and one I absolutely hate."

She smiled. "Leslie the favorite?" she asked sarcastically.

I groaned. "She needs to get herself a new crush."

"I'll try to set her up with someone." She said as she left.

"Bye!" I called after her. I love you.

But I didn't want to be creepy, so I didn't add the last part out loud.

I sat down at my desk and wondered what to do. I wasn't tired at all actually.

I decided Embry would understand if she was texting during class. Big city or small town?

In America? Big-ish city. In Europe I really love the country sides, but I like to visit the big cities there. You?

I like both. Do you like America?

Yeah. Its different the Europe. Much more casual.

Wait, if this is your first time in America than you don't you have an accent?

Lol I can turn it on and off. I'll show you sometime. My family members are all from America except for my grandpa, so I grew up around American accents.

Nice. What's your favorite subject in school?

Right now? History. We're learning about the Civil War. My uncle is a big Civil War buff.

You were supposed to say gym…

Lol I thought we weren't counting that one! Of course its my favorite!

Uh-huh. Nice save. Do you regret anything in your life?

Getting all philosophical, huh? Not really. I mean, yeah I've fucked up a few times, but nothing resulting in any big consequences. You?

Nah. Every decision I've made helped me to get where I am today. And I like today. So is Renee a family name?

I don't really know. I would assume so. Or my mom just liked it. What's you middle name?

William. That's my dad's name.

Ohh! I know something about your mysterious family!!

I guess so. If you could use 3 adjectives to describe yourself, what would they be?

Dude, you really shouldn't be promoting texting in class. How sweet, brown because of her eyes!! :) :) :) AWWWWWWWWW!!!!!

The fuck?

Embry? Give her back her phone. Now.

I don't know. They're taking a quiz. She might get some answers from you….

Give it back. And don't read our conversations!

Thongs, eh? Ohh. And she passed on your first kiss question… hum… makes me wonder….

Stop it! That's personal!

Fine. I'll give it back…Sergeant Sexy…

Its actually me.

Sorry about that.

Ok, so 3 adjectives… um. Independent. Hardworking. Annnnd, Fun-loving. How about you?

Faithful. Diligent. And sexy.

Lol. Mmkay, my question: If you and the one you loved could have immortality, would you take it?

How the hell do I answer that? I am immortal. She's the one I love, but she would have to be changed into a blood sucker to have it. And no fucking way that's happening.

Pass.

But that one is easy!

Maybe I could stay with the love of my life. But what about her and my family? Plus, how does one become immortal??

Yes or no.

Pass.

Ugh. Fine. Boxers or briefs?

Neither. Commando.

Lol. Really?!

You didn't notice yesterday?

Not really. Mr. Call just told me to put it away. Cant have him reading about how I asked what kind of underwear you wear….bye.

Bye.

She asked you that?! Embry laughed in my head during our lunch patrol.

Well, I asked her what kind…never mind.

What did you say?

Neither.

He almost died laughing. Oh. Shit! You should have seen her face when I took her phone. She was sooo nervous!

Jackass. Did you see our whole conversation?

Yep. And I also saw a naughty, naughty picture. He recalled Carlie in her Halloween costume.

Mine! Mine! Mine! Mine! Eyes off! I snarled.

Sorry man. I didn't mean to see it. Just popped up when I was looking for something to embarrass you with.

And that's how it went for a week. We would text at night, sometimes until 3am, and in second period. Carlie would be the first one in the gym in the morning and we would flirt and share 'looks' in gym. Sometimes at lunch we would meet in my office, we didn't do anything more than talking and sometimes chaste kisses.

One thing I learned about her, was that she was a fucking tease! I mean, I kinda played into it by asking what she was wearing, but she actually sent me pictures. I couldn't really see for sure what they were, but I saw the color and fabric. And no two were ever the same.

We made plans to go to Chicago the following weekend. I even made reservations at a fancy restaurant.

Carlie and I were doing our usual routine of texting on Friday night. I had just asked her her favorite song of the day, when I heard a knock on the door and Embry run to get it.

"Oh. I was hoping you wouldn't answer the door." Carlie!

"Yeah. I wish someone else had answered the door…" Embry said awkwardly as a scrambled to put more than some holy sweats on.

"Carlie!" I said, bursting out of my room in a pair of nice sweats and no shirt. Embry slipped out the door.

"My heat isn't working." She explained.

I couldn't help but smile. "So you want to stay here for the night?"

"I don't really trust hotels around here." I could tell that bothered her more than she let on with her eye roll and dry tone. It's a good thing she doesn't have to worry about that shit anymore. I'll kill any fucker who tries anything on my girl.

I took her hand and lead her to my room. I noticed she was still in her jeans. "Do you want something to sleep in?"

"No, I'm fine."

There was an awkward silence of about 30 seconds. "Ok. Well…do you want to…watch a movie?" I asked.

She smiled. "As long as its not Transformers."

I laughed. "Best movie ever."

After debating for 10 minutes on what to watch, we finally settled on V for Vendetta and cuddled up on my bed.

"You're really hot." She said in reference to my body temperature.

I laughed. "Thanks." Most people don't think that comment through.

"No. Like I think you have a fever!" she laughed.

"Nah. It just runs in our blood."

She let it pass and went back to watching to movie. Occasionally running her hands up and down my chest lightly as I absentmindedly played with a strand of her hair and kissed her at random intervals. When Embry saw it later he described it as a 'total sickening cutesy couple moment' that 'made him want to barf.' He's just jealous.

We made small comments through out the movie, but mostly just stayed silent, snuggled up. About half way through the movie, I noticed she had fallen asleep.

I moved her so she wouldn't get a crick in her neck and fell asleep next to her, hoping she would be there this time when I get up.

About half way through the night. She started to shift around in her sleep. I immediately woke up to see if anything was wrong. She shifted away from me, and that's when I noticed she was sweating. She was just over heated due the close proximity to me.

I figured she would just shift away from me and be still again, but no. As soon as she was a comfortable distance away, she unbuttoned her jeans, took them off, and curled up right at my side again, her head returning to my neck. My whole body stiffened, some parts more than others…

I could feel her smooth legs brushing against mine. My body reacted to her warm breath on my neck and the swell of her breasts pressed up to my chest. I prayed she would stay asleep so she wouldn't feel my erection, I slowly shifted away so no part of her body was resting against it.

It was torture that night. She kept shifting closer to me, which, normally I wouldn't be against, but she was asleep and we were still so new in our relationship. Not like we haven't done it before, but I could tell she just didn't want to. Or wasn't ready to. And I wasn't going to push her. I was lucky enough as is…

I finally fell into a restless sleep at about 5am. Thank god it was Sunday and we could sleep in. Hopefully she would sleep in…

10am. That wasn't exactly the sleeping in I had planned. But as soon as she started to stir, I was up, I had to make sure she wasn't going to leave again.

She stretched for a second before opening her eyes and looking up at me. "Oh. Sorry. I guess I fell asleep." She said, turning a little pink.

I smiled. "S'ok."

She bit her lip and smiled. "And, um, how exactly did I end up pants-less?"

My eyes widened in horror when I realized what it looked like. "No! No! I didn't-"

"I kinda figured." She cut me off. "I know you wouldn't…"

"No. You, um, well, I guess you got hot in the middle of the night and, well…"

She blushed. "And I just stripped out of my pants?"

I smiled and shrugged. "Its aright. Do you want breakfast?"

"Nope. I'm not hungry. But I better go. The repair man should be at my house at around 11." She replied, much to my displeasure.

"Are you sure? You could stick around for a little longer. I could make pancakes." I said in a, supposed to be, enticing voice.

She smiled. "Pancakes sound tempting, but I'm not really hungry, and if I don't call my dad back soon," she said, glancing at her phone, "he's going to call every one in America he knows to find me. And I'm pretty sure finding me in my gym teacher's bed wouldn't be good for either one of us."

I sighed. "Alright. You have a valid point." I said as she got up and put her jeans back on. I followed suit and threw a tee shirt on after I rolled out of bed.

"Um, can you make sure Mr. Call is out or something? I kind of still can't face him." she said after hesitating at my door for a second.

"I can hear you! Both you and Sergeant Sexy seem to have a knack for insulting me as soon as I'm about to come around the corner!" Embry said as he barged into my room with a smirk. "I didn't know you stayed the night, Carlie." He most certainly did, I bet her could smell her. He just wants to make everything difficult.

Carlie looked down and blushed. "Yeah…well…"

"Oh! By the way I just graded your essay on your dad." He said with a smirk on his face. He was obviously enjoying her discomfort. Jack ass. "He certainly seems like an interesting guy. I bet Jake will have a ball meeting him."

"Ok then." I said launching myself at him.

I gave him a light punch to the gut, he stumbled backwards and laughed. "Just having a bit of fun." He said as he walked away.

I went back to my room where Carlie was waiting. "Sorry about that. He's more like a child than an adult."

She smiled and rose form where she was seated on my bed. "Well I don't think launching yourself at him and punching him is very adult like either." She teased. I heard Embry and Seth's boisterous laughs coming from the kitchen.

I smiled and shrugged. "Are you sure you don't want to stay?"

"I'm sure. I have to go." She said in a hurry.

I sighed. Damn. I lead her to the door. Seth, Leah and Embry sat snickering in the kitchen. I shot them all glares as I leaned down and gave her a small kiss. Seth cat called. I made a mental note to kick his ass later for it.

She blushed. "Well, now that 2 of your 3 cousins have embarrassed me, I think its time I go." She said, turning around and walking out the door.

I watched her from our living room window to make sure she got to her car safely. Then I ran to the kitchen to kick some ass. "What the hell?!" I yelled.

All 3 broke down in hysterics. "Its just…you…and her…so fucking…cliché!" Embry said through laugher.

"What? Why?"

They howled with laugher even harder while I tried to understand why we were cliché. Leah finally calmed down enough to answer me. "She comes over when she's in need of help, you hold her all night, and you two have a small kiss to say good bye!" she laughed.

I frowned. "I don't see anything cliché about a werewolf gym teacher imprinting on my 17 year old emancipated student. In fact, I would call that weird and kinda tough considering I had to watch Cook put his ands all over her."

She rolled her eyes, "Oh please. You have had quite possibly the easiest imprinting ever."

"How so!?"

Embry answered this time, "Look at Sam, he had the wrath of Leah to deal with, and hurting his imprint. You have got it easier than him."

"And look at Jared," Seth jumped in, "it took him about a year to convince Kim he wasn't playing a joke on her. Carlie gave into the imprint in, what, 3 months? She came in January and it's the first week of April now."

"Paul had to deal with phasing in front of Rachel, and the wrath of Billy, and you." Leah continued, "Quil and Brady both got stuck with children. Collin met Jenna as she was running away from home."

"Blake and Melody met on her wedding day. So he had to deal with her getting married to another guy, her guilt when she figured out she loved him and not her husband, and the pain of getting her marriage annulled." Seth offered.

"And Kia was Sean's brother's girlfriend when they met. So, dude, you got it pretty easy. It took every other guy at least a year to get their imprints to date them. It took you 3 months. You got some game!" Embry said.

I though about it. They were right. Carlie was easy. Wait. Wrong word. Carlie was…different. Some how I felt our relationship was more intense than everyone else's starting relationships. And she seemed to trust me whole heartedly.

We did our usual Sunday shopping and cleaning. Embry claimed he couldn't clean due to the fact he was behind on grading. Bull. But I let him out of it because I was in a pretty good mood.

I was laying in bed late Sunday night. I couldn't fall asleep for some reason. And it was 1am! I felt…restless.

Then I saw my phone light up with a new text:

I can't sleep. Ohhh. So that why I cant sleep, she cant.

Me either. So I couldn't help but notice your belly button piercing…

:) haha. That's kind of a long story to tell through texting…

All of her stories seemed to be long and complicated… Much better told in person…

Why don't you come over and tell me about it?

Idk. School tomorrow.

You could just bring some clothes to wear tomorrow. Admit it…you sleep better with me with you.

Do you know how much of a stir that would cause?

We wouldn't get caught…Come on. Nice deflection by the way. Admit it…

That wasn't a deflection!

Suuuure. So how about it? We could both be better rested for tomorrow.

I'm already in my pjs…

I don't give a damn. Come on. I sleep better with you here too.

Some one might see me…

Its 1am.

I think people would notice tomorrow if I show up unshowered and in clothes that have been in an overnight bag all night…

We have 2 showers in my apartment. You can hang your clothes in my closet. You're out of excuses…

Fine. I'll be over in 5.

Yes! I spent the next five minutes changing my sheets. Not that I jacked off in them of anything, but I suspect I may have some what of a dog smell sometimes. And I didn't want her to be repulsed or anything.

I also gave Embry an alpha order to stay in his room until 6am the next morning. He could only come out if it was an emergency. I also told Leah and Seth to stay out of sight too. They wouldn't be as annoying.

I brushed my teeth and put on nicer sweats. She didn't seem to mind me wearing no shirt, so half naked it is…

10 minutes from the time 5 minutes was up, she knocked on the door. "Sorry I'm late. I didn't know what to wear tomorrow." She said as soon as I opened the door.

I smiled. "How deep is your closet?"

She blushed and bit her lip. "Um…pretty big."

I laughed and gestured for her to come in. "Come on. You look tired."

I lead her into my room and shut the door. After she took her coat off, I could actually see what she was wearing. Pretty much nothing. A black, tight tank top and some sweatpants. I saw the word 'juicy' printed on the back of them. I knew that was some sort of designer. "So you wear designers to bed too?" I asked as I pulled her into bed with me.

"They're comfortable." She defended her self with a laugh.

"So are you going to tell me about that piercing?" I asked as soon as we were cuddled up in bed.

She laughed and agreed. "Ok. Well, it was 2 years ago and my aunt and I were in Amsterdam for a night to do some shopping."

"For one night?" I asked. Who the hell goes to Amsterdam for one night?!

"Yes. One night. Are you one of those annoying story inturupters?" she asked playfully.

"Nah. I'll be good." I promised.

"OK. So this trip to Amsterdam wasn't exactly approved by my dad. I was grounded because I accepted a ride home from another guy, Demitri, whom my dad didn't really approve of me having a relationship with. We'll get into him some other day…" she said with an eye roll. I bet he was her first kiss…

"But anyway, I was a little upset with my dad because he almost kicked Demitri's ass for kissing me good night on the cheek. And I talked with my aunt about it, and she said that she was planning a trip to Amsterdam and that I was welcome to come along to escape my dad."

"So we get there and, as soon as he figures out I'm in a different country, he flips his shit and calls me and tells me to get back home. He sounded pretty serious, so I booked a flight home. But I was pretty pissed at him for running my vacation, so before my aunt could stop me, a ran out and got my belly button pierced."

"Needless to say, my dad was really, really angry. I was grounded for a month for it. But I like it." She finished by pulling her tank top up a little so I could see her flat stomach, complete with a diamond-looking stud. Knowing her spending habits, it was a real diamond.

"Me too." I said with a smile.

She smiled. "Ok. I told you about my piercing. Now you have to tell me about your tattoo." She said, swiping her hand over my right shoulder.

I smiled. "Its not really that exciting of a story." I said with a smile. If you don't count suddenly exploding into a werewolf, and becoming part of and elite group of protectors along with a few other guys from the rez. Resulting in becoming brothers and getting the same cropped hair and same tattoo…

"I still wanna here it."

"Alright. Well, before I ran away from home, a bunch of guys and Leah and I were really close, pretty much like brothers and sister. And to show our comradeship, we all got matching tattoos. Embry and Seth both have one in the same place as me. Leah has a smaller version on her hip." I explained.

She bit her lip. "I don't think that's a boring story. You got your tattoo for something noble, comradeship. I got my piercing out of rebelliousness."

I laughed. "I kind of did too, I guess. I got it when I was 16, and my dad wasn't very happy with me for it." She laughed, then a panicked question came to mind… "Hey, so, uh, spring break is next week. You, uh, going anywhere?"

Please say no. Please say no.

She bit her lip and looked away. "Um, yeah Actually. I promised my friend Maribel I'd join her in Cancun. So… I'll be gone the whole week, Sunday to Sunday." She said.

Fuck. Whose going to protect her in Mexico?! "Oh. Umm, that's cool."

She laughed awkwardly and took a deep breath, closing her eyes. "I'm tired." She whispered.

I kissed her forehead and hugged her closer. "Good night."

It was pretty much the same deal as last night, when she got hot, she shifted away just to remove her pants, and then went right back to curling herself at my side. It was getting harder and harder to keep myself in check. And it got even harder when her smooth legs wrapped around my legs.

Shit. Her shirt wasn't covering anything up. I could perfectly see the shape of her breasts. It was driving me crazy. It broke me up when I forced myself too pull away from her. I knew it was for the better though.

Gone for a week…. How am I supposed to live? I only had the rest of this week with her! Then she's going to be gone for a fucking week! Stupid Maribel…

I worried and worried about what was going to happen. Spring break in Mexico?? What the hell is she thinking? She's the most beautiful, sexy, hot girl in the world! College guys on spring break will notice! Agh!!

After pretty much staying up all night worrying, I finally fell asleep with the comfort that she would be next to me when I woke up.
