Girls Day Out

I should have expected this. I was sitting with the pack for lunch and they were all looking at me and Embry with the biggest smirks and grins they could possibly manage.

"Congratulations, you guys." Kim told us with a large grin.

Jared wrapped his hands around Kim's waist and pulled her closer to him. He lifted his eyes to our gaze. "Congrats." He spoke and gave a wink to Embry.

I gave them a smile. "Thanks." I tilted my head back to stare at Embry who in turn tilted his head down to look at me. We made eye contact and I saw his eyes soften the moment they did. I felt myself relax as I gave him a soft smile.

Paul sighed from his seat. "Now we are going to be hearing more thoughts from another lovesick puppy-dog." He complained as he took a bite out of his apple.

I pouted while Embry didn't look very impressed by his comment. Luckily, Seth came to our defence. "You know you also have an imprint. We have to listen to you being lovesick too."

The table burst out laughing while Paul growled at Seth, slightly shaking. Jared let go off Kim and swung his arm around the fuming boy. "Don't mind them. Just think about Rachael." This seemed to work as Paul spaced out a bit and his shaking stopped. Guess just thinking of his imprint calmed him down.

Though some credit should be given to Jared. He knew just what to say and seems to be one of the only people who can cool down the hot-head.

"I'd rather him not think about my sister." Jacob mumbled more to himself than anyone. I heard because I was sitting close to him. However, the pack had super hearing so they all burst into laughter at his comment. I couldn't tell if he was referring to the fact he didn't like that Paul imprinted on his sister or the thoughts Paul must have about her.

Suddenly, two boys came over to our table and sat down with their trays. They looked younger than us. Probably about 13. "Hey, look who has finally joined us." Paul teased as he ruffled the hair of the taller one of the two. Guess Paul got over his mood quickly.

The boy managed to push Paul's hand away with a smirk. He was difficult to read. Obviously he was more reserved around the pack but at the same time he was playful. I glanced at the other boy who seemed more shy. From the look of it, they seemed like they wanted to join in but didn't want to intrude.

The two caught me staring and I smiled to try to hide my embarrassment. They both returned the gesture when Embry spoke up. "Right, Maddi, you haven't met these two yet."

"That's right. These are the newest pups of the pack. They're still learning." Jared grinned.

Paul leaned back in his seat. "This one." He ruffled the taller boy's hair again. "Is Brady. The smaller one is Collin." He opted to pointing at Collin.

"Nice to meet you. I'm Maddi." I flashed them a grin.

"They already know who you are from Embry's thoughts." Quil stated as he continued eating his second sandwich.

It's a strange feeling how they already know me because someone else's thoughts of me. Suddenly, an arm wrapped around me and pulled me closer. I looked to see I was now leaning against Embry's side.

I surveyed the table. Everyone was joking around and having fun. I smiled to myself as I snuck a glance up at Embry. Yeah, this is where I belong.

School had finished and Skylar and I had kept our promise to hang out together. We were in her car as we drove towards Forks. She wanted to go there for the afternoon since she didn't know what to do in La Push. However, I asked for a quick pit stop first.

We pulled up and Skylar sighed. "Tell me again why we are here of all places."

I looked out the window at the little shop where Skylar and I came to get her some supplies for her project. "I just want to look at something, that's all. Besides, you can use this time to look around and see if there's anything you need or want, maybe for another assignment or something." I rambled with a shrug as I hopped out the car.

We walked into the store as the bell rang on the door, alerting of our presence. Skylar stared at me. She obviously didn't want to spend our time in this place. "I'm going to look around and see if I can find anything to entertain myself. Let me know when you're done." She started walking away while pouting. "And make it quick." She shouted over her shoulder.

I glanced around the store, trying to remember where it was. I headed near the back of the store and found it on the wall. It was the dream catcher with the wolf in it. I'm not sure why I wanted to come back here. I just felt like I should.

I reached up and touched the dream catcher. I didn't have any visions this time about the lady and the man. But maybe, just maybe, he was a wolf and she was an imprint. It was a wild thought but I just couldn't get it out of my head.

"I thought you might come back." I snapped my head to my side. Standing there was the same old lady from last time. The one that just disappeared.

"Who are you?" I blurted out. I covered my mouth with my hand. "I'm sorry, that sounded so rude."

She held her hand up. "I know what you meant. My name is Dorothy. I'm from the Makah tribe." Dorothy stared up at the dream catcher. "My grandmother made this." I followed her gaze. "She used to tell me stories. About how she fell in love with a spirit walker."

I glanced at the lady, mouth hanging open. Did she know? She turned to face me. "I have no idea what she meant. She told me it was a secret. I can never forget her smile as she told me."

I glanced back at the dream catcher. She must have been an imprint. And she made this full of her love for him. Dorothy didn't know the truth. "Why do you have it on display here?"

"Because she believed someone would find it and know how precious it was." Dorothy smiled at me. "I guess she was right."

I tilted my head at her. What did she mean? Dorothy continued. "She told me that when I found that person, I should give it to them." Dorothy stepped forwards and took the dream catcher down.

I watched as Dorothy held the dream catcher out towards me. "She wanted you to have it."

I was in total shock. "No. I couldn't." I tried to convince her otherwise. "It's your grandmother's. You should keep it."

"Nonsense." Dorothy disregarded my objections. "You know something about this, right?" I nodded my head slightly. "Then don't disgrace her wishes and memories. Take it."

I obediently took the dream catcher, holding it to my chest. After that speech from an old woman, how could you not. "How much?" I inquired.

Dorothy smiled. "Nothing." I looked at her wide eyed. She was kidding, right? "You can't put a price on feelings."

I looked down at the dream catcher. "Thank you." I whispered.

"Take good care of it for me." Dorothy stated.

"I will. I promise." I instantly told her.

"I know you will." Dorothy grinned.

"Maddi!" I heard Skylar shout out. I turned around the direction her voice came from. "Where are you?"

"Over here." I called back before turning around again. Dorothy was gone. I glanced around in confusion. I stepped forwards a little to search before Skylar caught my attention from behind me.

"Are you ready to go?" She asked.

I did one final sweep of the aisle before replying. "Yeah." Dorothy had disappeared again. I get the feeling she was doing that on purpose.

Skylar and I headed to the exit and left. "Pretty dream catcher. Was it expensive?" She asked as we hopped in the car.

I carefully placed it on the back seat. "No. Cost nothing."

Skylar looked at me in disbelief. She looked around before coming in closer and whispering. "You stole it?" She quickly fastened her seatbelt. "We better get out before they notice."

"What? No. I didn't steal it." I gave her an incredulous look. "Dorothy gave it to me for free."

"Dorothy?" Skylar asked as she started driving away.

"The old lady who works there." I answered.

"I'll believe you. I mean I was going to drive off anyway when I thought you stole it." Skylar said with a laugh.

"Can't believe you thought I would steal." I fake pouted causing her to laugh.

The two of us chatted the rest of the drive to Forks. Most of the conversation was just me telling Skylar about Embry and I.

We pulled up next to a small park to get some fresh air. We hopped out as we went onto the green grass. "I can't believe you two got together so quickly." Skylar smiled as she found some rocks to jump on.

"I know. I never thought that would happen." I laughed. It's not like I could say he imprinted on me.

"Why is he looking at us?" Skylar questioned. I glanced at the girl to see her staring at something. Following her line of sight, I saw a boy just standing a bit away, staring at us.

I narrowed my eyes slightly at him. "Don't know."

Suddenly, the boy covered his nose before leaving behind a building. "What's his problem? What a creep." Skylar spat.

I shrugged. "Well, he's gone at least."

"So, where should we go now? A café?" Skylar asked.

I looked at the sky. It was dark even though it wasn't late yet. "A café sounds good."

"Sweet, let's go." Skylar cheered as she jumped from one rock to another. However, she slipped and fell back on the rock, screaming as she did.

"Skylar!" I cried out as I ran to her. I grabbed her arm and saw my hand had been covered in blood. I looked at the injury to see a huge gash. There was also one on her leg.

"We need to get you to a hospital." I told her. I only received a nod as she looked in pain.

I helped her walk to the car and placed her in the passenger seat. I grabbed her keys and hopped in the driver's seat. I followed the signs until we reached the Forks hospital.

I walked inside with Skylar, and thankfully there weren't many patients so we got in with a doctor straight away. The fact that blood was spilling on the floor may have also helped us be seen quicker.

Skylar sat on the bed while the doctor cleaned up the blood. The doctor was pale with blonde hair. "You're going to need stitches." He spoke. Skylar gave a nod and the doctor started getting things ready.

I stood near the open door as I watched. Who knew our trip could turn out like this. Girls day out and we had some creepy guy staring at us and Skylar's in the hospital. I felt a chill as someone walked near the door behind me. I didn't turn to see who it was since it would be obvious I'm turning to look at them.

Suddenly, something flashed through my mind. I grabbed my head with my hand. It was like someone was looking at me. No, like someone was looking in my brain.

I spun around to see an attractive boy with pale skin and dark hair standing in the doorway. He was staring at me with an unreadable expression but there was almost slight surprise or shock.

"Are you alright?" I turned to see the doctor looking at me.

I realised I still had my hand to my head. I quickly lowered it. "Yeah, I'm fine."

The doctor's eyes flickered to the boy. "What are you doing here?"

"I came with Bella." The boy answered.

Who is Bella? I only know one and that is… I had to almost pick up my jaw from the ground. Bella Swan appeared in the doorway. "Bella?" I accidently asked out loud.

When Bella looked at me, she was also shocked. "Maddison?" She questioned with disbelief.
