I changed the holiday destination of Katy's family to Seattle, as it's a lot closer to Forks than Washington DC. (In the last chapter I was actually meaning the city, but I left off the DC part accidently.) You'll find out why I needed a close city in the future!

And without further ado, here is the next chapter.

Seth's POV

I didn't call Katy. Sam had advised me to leave her alone while she got used to the idea of me being a werewolf.

"She'll come back to you when she wants to. Until then just let her be." He told me.

Katy avoided me all weekend. I tried not to show it, but inside I felt worried, anxious and above all, disappointed. From what I knew about Emily and Kim, they'd accepted the fact that Sam and Jared were different very quickly, and it hadn't affected their relationships.

But Katy wasn't like Emily or Kim. What if she didn't want to be with me anymore? If that happened, I don't know how I'd cope.

When I was out on patrol, the others took extra care to make sure that their thoughts weren't about imprints, or anything remotely connected to the whole infuriating business.

I, too, tried to keep my thoughts away from my imprint, but they couldn't help straying up to Forks, where she was.

Bella hadn't come down to visit Jacob, but we all assumed she was looking after Katy.

Everyone tried to cheer me up, especially Jake, but nobody in La Push could make me feel even slightly better.

By Monday, I was beginning to lose hope. Patrols became a welcome distraction, something to do.

I ran repetitively through the forest with Paul and Jacob. I could hear Jacob's cheerful thoughts, and they annoyed me.

Can you stop it Jake? You're worse than Leah, and that's something that I used to think was impossible!

Me? Worse than Leah? I'm offended.

Just be quiet. I thought at him.

After that, he kept his thoughts to what he'd eat when he got home. Paul was thinking about something more interesting: the previous time the pack had gone cliff diving. Suddenly his thoughts slipped.

Why is he so depressed? It's not like Katy's that great. She – oh no, now's he's going to blow!

I paid no attention to what he was thinking as I sunk my claws into his grey fur. I had to hurt him! Paul had to pay for what he'd said about Katy.

My teeth ripped at him, tearing out chunks of fur. He eventually retaliated, and we rolled into a ball of fur, claws and teeth. His size and strength was no match for my fierce, burning anger.

Paul yelped as I bit his shoulder. I sunk my claws deeper into his side.

I felt Jacob trying to pull me off him, his jaws tugging on my back leg. I kicked him off.

Suddenly there were more wolves, surrounding us. They pulled me off Paul. I struggled and tried to fight my way free of them.

Seth! Seth! SETH! Stop it! STOP THAT RIGHT NOW! Sam thought-yelled at me. I never realised how easy it was to disobey the Alpha.

Seth! Calm down mate.

Yeah, get a grip.

Geez, cool it.

You don't need to kill Paul.

It was Embry's thought that made me realise what I'd been doing.

I blinked and looked around at them, my pack, my friends, all of them helping me to return to normal.

Sorry guys, sorry Paul. I thought to them all.

We all stuff up sometimes, though Paul seems to do it more than everyone else put together, Jacob thought back. You should go home, me and Paul will finish off the patrol.

But there's nothing to do back at La Push! I protested, remembering the long, boring hours spent there without her.

How about some cliff-diving? Leah suggested. Come on, it'll be fun!

Yeah, good idea Leah. Embry thought.

Wow, a good idea from Leah! That was a first!

Hey! She snapped. I was trying to be nice!

I laughed, not that wolves can laugh very well. All right, I'll go jump off a cliff with you crazy people.

Together, Sam, Leah, Embry and me ran back home. Sam decided he wanted to spend the rest of the afternoon with Emily, (as usual) so only the three of us continued on to the cliffs, phasing back in the outskirts of the forest.

It was perfect weather for cliff-diving, and the sea so far below was calm.

Embry took a running jump, and leapt off the cliff, yelling the whole time.

I glanced at Leah. We both grinned, and sprinted towards the edge at the same time.

For a second, I was petrified, but then I relished the freedom, the sensation of flying. This was as good as racing through the forest at top speed.

The wind rushed past my face. Without meaning to, I yelled the whole way down just like Embry. I could hear him hitting the waves below, and then suddenly they loomed ahead.

I hit the water with a splash, water spraying in all directions. I swam back to the beach, racing Leah, following Embry.

Soon we all stood at the top of the cliff again, gazing down at the faraway sea.

"This time, the first one to scream gets punished." Leah said with a wicked glint in her eyes.

"Like what?" I asked, hoping it wouldn't be too horrible.

"We can decide something really nasty when we're back at Emily's place for dinner," Leah replied. "That way, the whole pack gets to make suggestions!"

"This'll be fun!" Embry laughed. "We'll jump together, on three."

We linked hands to make sure that we all jumped at the same time.

"One!" Embry said. I trembled in anticipation.

"Two!"

Wait, was that a person I heard, walking quietly towards us? I twisted my head to see who it was.

"Seth?" A familiar voice called.

"Three!"

Just before I was pulled off the cliff by Embry, I caught a glimpse of Katy's terrified face.

"SETH!" She shrieked as I fell.

Oh, no. Katy was at the top of the cliff. I watched in horror as she jumped.

Katy's POV

I had decided.

I resolved myself to go to Seth, to talk to him about what he was. Bella and I went to La Push on Monday after school. Jacob wasn't home, nobody was at Seth's house, so we tried Sam's house.

I'd never been there before, and I stuck close to Bella.

Sam told us that Seth, Embry and Leah had gone to the cliffs, so I walked off to find them.

I knew where the cliffs were, but I wasn't sure why Seth would be there.

As I got closer, I could see three figures standing on the edge. The person on the end was a person I would never fail to recognise.

"Seth?" I called tentatively. I didn't know if he could hear me from here.

One of the people turned. My heart skipped joyfully.

Then it shattered as he was pulled of the cliff.

"SETH!" I screamed uselessly.

I stumbled over to where he'd fallen, no, been forced off the top of the towering cliff.

What was there to live for, now that my heart had gone?

I stood poised for a moment, and then, eyes tight shut, threw myself off the cliff.

My brain started working again, now that I was falling. I wasn't scared of being dashed to pieces at the bottom, cut apart by sharp dagger-like rocks. I would suffer the same fate as Seth.

I heard a splash.

My eyes flew open.

I groaned as I realised my mistake.

There were not stones at the foot of the immense cliff, but the sea.

I'd been an idiot to think that Seth would have committed suicide with Embry and Leah.

Why hadn't I thought before I jumped?

Seth would not have died from jumping off this cliff, but I will.

I, who cannot swim.

Sorry to leave you guys there on a cliff-hanger! (Literally!)

It was really fun writing that chapter, because it was mostly from Seth's POV. I've only done that once before, and it wasn't very long. I loved making him attack Paul, and go cliff-diving!

I know it's kind of strange to make Katy unable to swim, but it makes this chapter and the next one more exciting.

Please please please review, it's not that hard to click the review button and type a few words! I'll update ASAP.
