AN: Another installment, just for you!! This one is called Friends, and involves some werewolf bonding time, except they're not werewolves yet in this fic. It's set in NM, and in Jacob's POV. Enjoy! As always, critism and critique is always welcome.
Friends
Embry, Quil and I walked along the road that travels through the center of La Push, laughing amongst ourselves at a joke Embry had just told. Embry, though quiet around company, was one of the most sarcastic and witty people that I have ever met.
Quil reached out and shoved Embry off the road, causing him to land in a mess of ferns. As Quil's back was turned to me, I pushed him, and he joined Embry on the ground. Embry burst into laughter immediately, while Quil glared at me.
"Uh… Sorry?" I offered, backing away slowly. The seconds ticked by in silence as we waited for Quil to reply. The likelihood of him launching a similar attack on me was frighteningly high.
Quil began to chuckle, then was soon rolling around clutching his sides. Embry and I glanced at each other and managed to contain our laughter for roughly five seconds before I joined the two of them on the ground.
We were still snorting and nudging each other when Bella drove by, the rumble of her truck's engine announcing her arrival. She pulled to the side of the road and rolled down her window, looking at us with a bewildered and slightly concerned expression, sending us into fresh peals of laughter.
After watching us for a few minutes, she realized that the chances of her getting an explanation for out hysteria were fairly slim, and decided to ask, "What's so funny?"
We couldn't answer. Bella shook her head at our antics, rolled up her window and left.
Embry spoke. "Well, there goes our ride."
Quil and I glared at him. His eyes darted back and forth between our faces for a moment before he stood and began to jog down the road in the direction Bella had gone. Quil and I lay back in the ferns, gasping for breath.
We sighed at the same moment, looked at each other, then laughed again.
This was turning out to be a long afternoon.
