Chapter 15

Suze's POV

This was going way too far. I mean why did Paul have to come and ruin my perfect moment with Jesse? And it was inevitable that with three people, my mom and Andy would find me with not just one but TWO guys in my room and would decide that this was the perfect time to ground me for life. So I did the only logical thing I could think off.

"Guys!" I hissed as loud as I dared. "I am going to get dressed and then we are going to go outside and talk about this rationally, ok?" I said with an edge in my voice.

They both nodded while I grabbed some clothes and headed into my bathroom. To my dismay I realized I had grabbed my mini skirt which was so not good for climbing. But I didn't feel like exchanging it, so I just changed really quickly, brushed my hair and put on some lip gloss. I decided to bring my bat-girl boots for good measure.

I opened the bathroom door to find Paul and Jesse shooting daggers at each other. I motioned with my hand for the to follow me and they did willingly. I opened the window and then climbed down with difficulty due to the tightness and shortness of my skirt. Then I walked a little ways away from my house and then stopped.

"Ok Jesse you are going to talk and tell me what is wrong then Paul is going to go, ok? NO interruptions." I said forcefully and then looking at Paul. He smirked.

"Ok Suze I won't interrupt, but first can I say one thing?" he said. I rolled my eyes and then I nodded.

"Nice stems Suze." He said simply and I blushed. Jesse just looked puzzled.

"What does this word 'stems' mean?" Jesse asked.

"Legs" I said quickly "Paul said I had nice legs." I was now pretty red now, but luckily it was dark and no one could see me blush. I looked at Jesse quickly and realized he looked livid.

Jesse's POV

How dare he talk to her that way! He said she had nice legs! And I admit this is undeniably true, but how dare he treat her like an object! How dare he!

I started advancing towards Slater who still wore that hideous smirk when Susannah stopped me.

"That's enough. You are going to talk now and then Paul will go, ok? No fighting and NO interruptions! She hissed fire dancing in her eyes. I sighed. This was going to be a very long night.

I then started to tell her everything- how I suspected something was wrong at the beach and then went to Paul's house and I repeated what Paul told me. I then looked at her and waited for her to reply but before she spoke Paul interrupted and said:

"I see Suze didn't tell you about our deal." He smirked. I turned to him. What was he talking about?

"What are you talking about?" I asked angrily. Paul smirked and Susannah looked really uncomfortable.

"Suze and I made this deal, where I agreed not to kill you, cowboy and Suze went to Shifter lessons with me." He said with a mocking smile. "And I get to kiss her whenever I want throughout these lessons." I suddenly stiffened. He could kiss her? He had kissed her? AND she let him? I understood the predicament – she didn't want me to die- but she didn't have to do this!

I turned to Susannah my face livid and was about to speak when Susannah interrupted.

. "I didn't want to- I really didn't Jesse, but I wanted to protect you!" she said with a pleading note in her voice. And her eyes glassy. I suddenly felt really bad. I hadn't meant to make her feel bad or make her cry. I pulled her towards me and wrapped both my arms around her.

"I know Querida, I know." I said soothingly. "Next time don't listen to him, ok? And don't go over for more lessons ok? I can take care of myself." She nodded and I felt better. Things were going to be fine.

Paul's POV

I couldn't believe this! Here I was intending to watch De Silvia blow up- and instead I am stuck watching Suze cuddle up to Jesse. This was the last straw. I really couldn't take it anymore.

"That's it?" I screamed. "After all my planning, you just forgive her, and you just go back to him?" I know I sounded manic but right now I really couldn't help it.

"Don't worry Suze, You and I were meant to be and one day you will see that, and I will get revenge!" I as screaming now. And before they could get a word in edgewise, I stocked off.

I wasn't kidding either- I would get revenge on them, and Suze would see the truth. I know I have said this before, but now I am not going to mess around with small blackmail. Now I am going to bring out the big guns. Jesse will be out of the picture- and me and Suze would be together, even if I had to murder someone to do it.

Suze's POV

Me and Jesse just stood there for awhile but then we both went back to our homes- we were too shocked to say much. I would be meeting him after school tomorrow where we would hopefully, talk. But right now I really needed my sleep because I had school tomorrow, and hopefully I wouldn't be to tired to talk to Paul- Me and him had to straighten a few things out.
