Chap 3
'Lilly' Seth said crouching down beside me, he looked down at me worried he seemed to glance at the wolves but wasn't fussed by them,
'My shoulder' I said gritting my teeth
'C'mon we need to get you help', he said trying to help me up in the most gentle way that he could, I sucked air in through my teeth, wincing with the pain, he put his arm around my waist to steady me. I squeezed my eyes closed, I think I had dislocated it. I tried to hold it steady, the pain was uncontrollable,
'I'm sorry I lost my balance' Quill said rushing over I couldn't talk to him
'Just make sure HE stays far away from her' Seth said in a stern voice to Quill, he paused for a second then hurried off. The ambulance was called out they took me away, none came with me s the hospital was in Forks, the guys couldn't risk going on the Cullans territory. They rushed me in and put me on some pain killers and sorted my shoulder out, they strapped it up for me but I would be okay, they gave me some strong painkillers and sent me home later on that day. The whole day was still spinning around in my head.
Sue came as soon as she could and took me to home, the whole way I was silent on the way home, she did try to make conversation but I wasn't feeling it my mind was on too much, I got home and just went straight to bed, I did thank sue but I just wanted to be asleep or better some answers. I stayed there for the next few days, I think it was the shock, my shoulder and arm ached for a while after that, I text my friends and Aunt and Uncle to see if they were okay, I dozed off, I woke up with a start when I herd the door open, I jolted I winced when the striking ran through my arm.
'Sorry I didn't realise you were sleeping' Seth said suddenly, his face full of concern he had grown up so much, I say the muscles twitch in his arm
'No it's fine' I said rearranging myself he walked over and sat on the end of my bed and looked at me.
'How are you' he asked
'How do you think I am?' I almost snapped at him, I didn't mean o and felt bad once I did.
'Sorry' he said looking away
'Sorry, I didn't mean to just it was all so scary, what the hell was all of that?' I said looking at him.
'I know, look Quill never meant to hurt you, he feels so bad bout what happened' Seth said looking at me then my arm
'It isn't his fault at all, I basically pulled him onto me, I just was so, like terrified about those wolves, they were huge' I shook the feeling away
'Yeah there are quite a few around here, they don't normally cause any harm' he said with a small smile. We chatted for a little while, I had a shower and pulled on some fresh P.J's.
Sue had made us some food but had gone to a friends, I tucked in now feeling so hungry, I sat on the sofa and got a thick, warm blanket while eating the warm filling meal Sue had made. I put a film on, Seth walked out from the other room, he looked over at me I just gave him a small smile.
'You going out?' I asked him
'Well umm yeah but I can stay here' he said seeming flustered
'No it is fine, please don't stay for me' I said thinking how kind he was
'Well I cant just leave you' he said
'You're not' I laughing slightly
'Well just text me if you need me, ill lock the door' he said holding up his key I just gave him a thumbs up.
'Thanks' I called over to him he just gave me a small wave before the door closed. I watched the film I didn't know that something, someone was watching me, making sure I was safe, since the day he laid eyes on me he had always been keeping a check on me.
The next week, I was hoovering around the house, I decided to go out for a walk later that day. I went onto forks, I went in to a little bar, it was quite busy, I glanced around, I saw a few guys from high school, losers that thought they were the best thing in town because they were on the football team and were dating the popular girl, they hadn't changed that much at all.
I saw Bella sitting by herself, looking down at the drink she had in front of here, she wasn't looking around, saying anything just sitting there, I walked over to her.
'Hey Bella' I said softly to her
'Oh hi... Lilly' she said after a second thinking
'Are you waiting for someone?' I asked her looking around at the faces that had tormented my childhood that were now oblivious to who I was.
'No, well yes I am but I don't think he'll be here' she muddled over her words
'Oh is it okay if I join you?' I asked her holding my drink up
'Sure' she said with a small smile she tucked her hair behind her ear.
'Thanks, it is so strange seeing all these people from high school around here' I smiled at her looking around
'Yeah' she said taking a sip we sat a silence for a couple of minuets it wasn't uncomfortable
'How is your Shoulder, Jake told me what happened' she said I was surprised
'Oh yeah it is much better thank you it hurts now and again but it isn't to bad, I think it was Quill when he landed on me' I said smiling she laughed
'Yeah they guy are bigger and heavier than they look' she smiled
'I'm glad it wasn't Jake then' I smiled she blushed slightly
We sat and chatted for a while, she was a sweet girl, we spoke about the guys on he Rez she didn't know that many mainly Jake who she has known for a long time. Like me and Seth.
We ordered another drink the waiter brought them over for us, he was cute, he looked at me and we smiled at each other, he looked at me again before he left, I laughed to myself and had some of my drink. The door opened, Bella turned her head to look at who it was walking in. it was the picture perfect Edward Cullen I remember him and Bella being inseparable in high school, it was sweet to see they were still together, he walked over to our booth, he stood tall, his posture amazing, his clear skin, he reminded me of those pictures of Jesus, with the light shining around him his porcelain face his soft yet intense eyes. He just looked at me.
'Edward do you remember Lilly Burr from high school' Bella said interrupting the silence, I though back to high school, watching them at lunch wishing I could be untouchable like them, have respect like them.
'Lily how nice to see you again, sorry for being so late' he said sitting down next to Bella looking at me again briefly this time
we spoke for a little while I downed my drink and checked the time I said goodbye to them both and paid for my drinks and Bellas, I then waved before I walked out and started to make my way to see Mom.
I walked around then sat by Mom.
A few days later
I was washing my hair humming to myself a song I hear on the radio the other day. I rinsed myself off and wrapped a towel around my self after towelling off the wetness off of my hair, I unlocked the door and opened it still humming, I almost shruck out, out of shock when I saw a Tall, extremely muscular guy wearing just some shorts, standing near the open plan kitchen talking to Seth, his hair was shaved shorter at the sides and slightly flopping on the top, his back looked amazing, I quickly pulled my shorter towel tighter around me, Seth caught my eye, Paul turned to see what he was looking at, I felt my face burn hot as I scampered to my room hopefully before he saw me. I slammed my door shut. My heart pounding, I felt so embarrassed, had they heard me, had he seen anything, who was he?
I had no idea what was going on, that Paul was afraid he had imprinted on me, that he wanted to see if he felt anything for me, he had tried seeing and sleeping other girls but he just couldn't go through with it, he hadn't told anyone, even through the pack link he had kept it to himself.
I got dressed and pulled my hair up in to a bun, though it was still wet, I pulled on some genie trousers and a loose top, I never worried what I looked like unless I was going out. I peeped around the door, I couldn't see him, I crept out of my room.
'Lilly' Seth shouted from behind me,
'Shit' I almost screamed out as my feet left the ground, his face was creased with laughter he almost doubled over from my reaction. I took a steady breath.
'You dick, that was horrible' I said walking over to him, he ran off I chased after him through the house.
I turned the corner, had hold of his arm, he spun me my socks sliding on the wooden floor, I laughed and saw Paul standing at the kitchen table he looked frightened, it must have been when Seth made me jump.
'What was that?' Paul asked his face hard looking at Seth, whose playfulness had now gone. I felt as though I was being told off, I just stood there looking at the ground, I heard an
'Ow' from Seth I looked up it seemed Paul had hit him on the arm it made me smile, I looked at Pauls smile it was a pure smile small but it was real. Our eyes met, I felt my smile fade, I couldn't look away, he leaned against he kitchen table as he seemed to fall, Seth quickly got his phone out, I felt like I couldn't move. I slowly took all of him in, the shape of his lips, he colour of his skin, the dimple in his cheek as he smiled, the tattoos on his arms and his chest, the light flecks in his eyes.
When Paul fell to the ground I went over to him worried.
'Are you okay?' I said reaching down to help him up, he just looked at me, he was breathing heavy, I backed off slightly, Seth came over to me and put his hand on my arm
'Lil come here' he said said as soon as Seth touched me a low, loud growl came from Paul, I looked at him terrified, where and how could he do that, his breathing was heavier, the door banged open. Jacob walked in thought the door he saw Paul and us standing there.
'Paul, come on, cool off' Jake said reaching down and almost picking Paul up from under his arms, as he passed me, he looked at me his eye so intense he seemed to get away from Jake, I took a step back and held on to Seth, trying to hide behind him. Another low growl came from him I closed my eyes, Jake took him out of the house, I walked over as Seth tried to stop me, I felt something or Paul like I wanted to know more about him, to look at him for longer.
I walked over to the front door, Jake and Paul squaring up to each other, raising their voices louder and louder, I leaned against the door watching them, suddenly Sam came running from the woods, not just jogging full on running, he was heading towards Paul who was about to take a swing at Jakes face, his lips pressed tightly together, his veins popping.
'No' escaped from my mouth there was so much violence. Paul stopped and looked at me, that's when Sam rammed into Paul knocking him over, suddenly there was a flash of grey then black there was snapping and snarling. Then there were two wolves on top of each other fighting, claws out and teeth showing.
'Get her in NOW' Jake shouted at Seth who was beside me he dragged me in I couldn't tare my eyes away from the scene unfolding in front of me.
'What's going on?' I asked Seth he wasn't looking at me
'Seth what's happening!' I shouted at him he still wouldn't look at me I pushed past him to get to the door
'NO' he shouted grabbing my hand
'Tell me what's going on then!' I shouted back at him trying to get my hand away his grip was so strong
'I can't' he said something in his eyes scared me I tried to get my hand away he was starting to hurt me now
'LET GO!' I shouted I pulled my arm it sent a pain up my shoulder, I cried out in pain, Seth let go instantly, then the door flew open the dark grey wolf standing in the door frame, it filled it full, I grabbed my arm as it hurt.
'Sorry' Seth seemed to panic all I could focus on was the wolf, the same one from the day I hurt my arm, the eyes so intense, like Pauls'.
There was more snapping and snarling as the Grey one looked around and jumped away.
'Lily are you okay?' Seth called after me
'What the fuck is going on!' I said in a stern voice looking at him hard
'You remember the old tales and legends we used to read when we were younger?' he asked I nodded thinking back all these years,
'Well' he just pointed outside my mouth almost fell open when it all hit me.
'You mean' I said I walked over to the door frame, there were 3 wolves standing facing each other.
'Paul?' I said the dark grey one looked at me I smiled I couldn't believe it. Next thing the dark russet wolf vanished and Jake stood there then the black one replaced by Sam, they jut looked at me. The dark grey wolf just stood still, I walked over to it slowly.
'Lily, just take care' Sam said holding his hand out to me I slowed down, didn't know that Paul was seeing red with anger and the wolf had full control of him, I walked over to him, even closer. The wolf, snapped at me I froze, Sam warned him. I just held the wolves gaze, I didn't see the other members of the pack line the edge of the woods. It only seemed like it was me and Paul.
His fur was so soft, I ran my hand deep down in to his fur, it was so incredibly warm I felt his body almost hum when I touched him, the smell of the trees and dirt filled my senses, I walked around him taking in the sheer size of him, my dreams were filled with the legends that we used to read from the books at Seths', I never took my hand away from him, it was silent and still, I didn't notice, when I got back to the front of him I looked in his eyes, I saw Pauls' eyes, I smiled to myself. My hand was on his cheek, I took it away slowly, he moved his head so my hand was now just above his wet nose, this made me laugh.
I didn't notice Jake move towards us, Paul did he was quick to move, he moved between me and Jake he had his head low and snarled, showing his teeth, growling deep and low at his pack brother. Wolves were super protective anyway but as Paul was such a hot head and was so easy to piss off they had all been dreading when he would imprint, still I was blissfully unaware of all of this, it made my hear race, Jake just raised his hands up, I moved back, tripping over my feet, I landed with a thud on my butt. Once again like lightning Paul had turned round and was right in front of me he was so fast it almost made me dizzy. He lowered his head down lower to meet mine I just looked at him, I looked around and saw all the others, I felt my hands get clammy and my face burn hot with embarrassment, Paul didn't like this. He phased back I watched in amazement, he was huge, he held out a hand for me his face now soft. I placed my hand in his, he pulled me up as though I was a child.
'Thanks' I said in a small voice he just looked at me a small smile on his face. I looked up at him.
'Paul' Sam said from behind him he spun around quick
'Relax we are here to help' Sam said almost cautiously
Some of the other pack members left us, Sam stayed as did Paul, I didn't want Seth to go but he was told to. We all sat down as Sam explained what was going on I couldn't believe it, there was so much to take in, I remember laughing about it all with Seth, who else knew about this? I just sat and listened looking over at Paul now and again. Sam covered imprinting but just skipped over it Paul shifted uncomfortably.
Seth came back when the others left Paul still sat there, Paul, sat across the room Seth sat next to me, Paul gave out a growl, I just ignored it.
'Why didn't you tell me?' I said feeling almost betrayed by him my eyes filled with tears
'I couldn't it wasn't my place to say' he said seeing I was hurt
'So all this time I had no idea' I said feeling stupid
'I would tell you if I could, you can't tell anyone else because if you do, you're breaking the treaty' Seth said he was serious, though Sam had already told me this, I just nodded in agreement.
'Drink?' I asked Paul he nodded I asked Seth said he agreed too, I went into the kitchen to go and get some Tins, I dropped them and cried out when I saw Paul was on top of Seth with his hands around his neck.
'Get the fuck off of him!' I cried out and tried to push him away Seth was smirking at him which was making Pauls grip tighter.
'Paul stop' I shouted, scared at how angry he was and powerful he was. He froze for a second before slowly letting Seth go, he got off of him, I rushed over to Seth to see if he was okay.
'What is wrong with you?' I turned my head and looked up at Paul while my hands were on Seth almost spat at Paul so angry at how easy it was for him to lose his temper
'He asked for it, big headed Pup!' he said breathing heavy, I helped Seth up.
'You're lucky, but not as lucky as me,' Seth said smirking, I didn't see him nod towards my hands on him or the concern for Seth in my eyes, he rubbed his neck when I looked at him rubbing his neck Paul made a lunge for him, while giving out a growl I just stayed in the middle of him. He stopped when he was closer to me, I just stared him straight in the eye, almost calm
'Go' I almost ordered Paul, he just looked at me blankly
'Now, get away from us!' I continued he just looked at us, huffed and stormed out of the house. He let out a loud roar and got in Seths face, I put my hand against his chest and shoved his away hard, he gave me the same look, I grimaced away, he huffed hard and stormed out Slamming the door hard when he left.
