If you'll be my star, I'll be your sky

Chapter 6

If I had you, that would be the only thing I'd ever need, if I had you, then money fame and fortune never could compete, if I had you...

Kim's P.O.V

I ran as fast as I could down the beach, reaching Seth quickly, he leapt up when he saw the expression on my face

"Hunter's hurt, were going to the hospital, get Sophie" I panted

He obeyed and jogged over to Sophie who had been talking to Billy Black, I looked around noticing that Jared was talking to his friends, I recognised Sam Uley as he had been a classmate of my brother, then Embry Call was a year below me in school, and finally there was Paul Narika.

Sophie and Seth ran over to me, that's when I realized we had no way to get to St. Finnbar's; I put my hand to my forehead, trying to figure something out.

I had to figure out a way.

I just had to.

Jared's P.O.V

After Kim had broken off to talk to her friends, I went up to the pack; we huddled together so no one could hear us talk

"I think I caught the scent of a cold one, it was just in the wind so I can't be sure, but if it is, it isn't one of the Cullen's" said Sam

"What's going on with Kim?" asked Embry

"One of her friends is hurt; she just found out, her, Seth and Sophie are going to a hospital now" I said

I glanced over at my imprint, her hand was to her head and she looked stressed out, Seth was rubbing Sophie's back absent mindly, Sophie looked like she was in the middle of a rant, she was waving her arms around

I could hear some words that floated over to us "We need a car...hospital...Miriam...Texted me...Hunter...needs blood...bite marks...animal attack"

I froze at the last part; I could tell that the rest of the pack had heard that too

"Shit" I heard Paul mutter

"I have an idea" I said, I jogged over to Kim, she looked up as I approached

"Do you guys need a lift to the hospital?" I asked, I had my car only down the road in case of emergency, so I could easily take them

Relief washed across Kim's face, I was happy about that, I didn't like seeing her tense

Seth nodded gratefully, we started making our way quickly up the beach trail, and Sam came up behind me, followed closely by the rest of the pack

"We'll run behind you" he muttered, so low only the packs highly sensitive ears would hear

I nodded slightly.

This was serious.

It was no animal attack.

It was a Vampire.

Kim's P.O.V

As soon as we reached the hospital, I jumped out of the car, not caring wether the others were following me, I ran through the doors, and into the emergency department, where a pale Miriam and a crying Alex sat waiting, Miriam stood up as we approached, she hugged me and glanced at Jared, raising an eyebrow but not saying anything

Seth went to get coffee while Soph comforted Alex, I stepped a few meters away from them to talk to Miriam, Jared was leaning up against a wall, looking at me, I pretended not to notice, now was not the time.

"How is he?" I asked Miriam

She drew in a shuddering breath "He's bad, he doesn't have enough blood and I'm not a viable donor, because we're only fraternal twins we can have different blood types, and we do, the hospital was taking care of patients from a multi-car pile up so they are running low on blood"

That's when Jared stepped in, he didn't even pretend that he hadn't been listening to our conversation "What blood type is he, maybe someone here is a match"

After we compared blood types it was determined that Seth was a match, he gladly said he would give blood, this sent Alex and Miriam over the edge, even usually strong Miriam burst into tears, thanking Seth profusely and hugging him.

Seth was told he could have two people in there with him seeing as he was so young, he chose me and Jared, I think he looked up to Jared, it was like he wanted to prove to Jared that he was a man.

As soon as they started drawing the blood Seth closed his eyes, he had his I-Pod with him and he was listening to that while holding my hand.

"So" said Jared "Interesting choice of music"

I stared at him quizzically

"Your ringtone, its One Step Closer by Linkin Park"

I nodded, was this really the time? Also, how did he even remember that, I wasn't expecting him to, the thought never crossed my mind

But then again, the fact that I would be sitting in a room with Jared Thail, with him actually talking to me,

Well that never crossed my mind either

Jared's P.O.V

"So, I presume you like Linkin Park"

Kim's eyes widened, she gestured to herself, me, Seth, then me and back to her again she had an incredulous look on her face

I know I was probably being insensitive, he was this young teenager, giving blood to save one of his friends, and all I could think were selfish ways to quench my own need, I needed to know Kim, I needed to know every little minute thing about her, and I would start now, i had no time to waste

Surviving without her really wasn't an option anymore.
