"No, I'm Emily's cousin," I cut in. Embry seemed to not hear me. He was still staring lovingly at Ali.

"Well, we'd better go," Ali claimed. "Emily and Sam are expecting us."

"How about I give you a ride?" Embry suggested.

"No, it's okay. See you later." Ali pivoted around and began walking quickly along the sidewalk. Olivia and I politely waved to Embry, but his eyes were still following Ali. I sighed and ran up to her.

"What are you doing? Embry totally just imprinted on you! You should spend some quality time with him now," I told her.

Ali shook her head. "He didn't imprint on me!"

"Yes, he did! Did you see the look on his face?" Olivia said.

"No he didn't!" Ali spat. Olivia and I stop talking the rest of the way back to my cousin's house.

"There you are!" Emily exclaimed. "Time for lunch! Here, I have soda and water in here." She dragged a cooler up to us.

We all quickly swallowed down the sandwiches and drinks. "Thanks for the food!" I told Emily when we were finished.

Olivia, Ali, and I walked straight to the guest room. There were three small beds squished into the small room, probably put there just for us. No way Emily and Sam would have three beds in this little space just because they felt like it.

I was too nervous to unpack. "How are we gonna get back home? We can't stay in this world forever," I whispered. I made sure to keep quiet because if anyone heard us, they'd probably assume we were aliens or something.

Olivia was transferring her clothes to one of the drawers. "I honestly don't know," she confessed. "Maybe when we go back on the plane…" But even she seemed unsure

"I'm going for a walk," Ali announced.

"What? We just got here. We should stick together!" I called after her, but she just kept on walking.

ALI'S POV

I felt better once I began walking out of the house. It looked just like it had in New Moon. I passed Emily, who was loading the dirty dishes into the dishwasher. She looked exactly like the actress in New Moon, except she didn't have the scars. Embry had also looked exactly like the actor in New Moon, too. I kind of felt bad for ignoring Nicole and Olivia and practically rejecting Embry.

Once I found out we were in the world of the Twilight series (though we weren't sure which book yet), I had secretly hoped I would end up with Jacob. I was strongly team Jacob. I had felt sorry for him because Bella married Edward and he was stuck with a stupid half-vampire baby that he had imprinted on.

When you thought about it, Jacob's story was really sad. He had finally found the girl of his dreams and then she went and married someone else. Then he imprinted on her baby. What a nice reminder that your love had moved on. I had dreams about ending up with Jacob and healing his heart. I didn't have dreams about Embry.

But I had to face the fact that Embry had imprinted on me. If only I had looked down far enough that my hair shielded my face. Then he would've imprinted on Olivia or Nicole, or no one at all.

Anyways, I was going to Jacob Black's house, careful to stay out of the path of Embry.

I rang the doorbell, and luckily, it was Jacob who answered.

"Hi, I'm Emily's cousin's friend, Ali," I said a little too quickly.

"Hi, nice to meet you. I'm Jacob Black. Come on in." I wanted to scream at him, imprint on me already! But I knew he couldn't do that, after Embry had. Plus, I wasn't even certain whether or not he was a werewolf yet.

"I'm out with my friend Bella in the garage, you can come along, too," Jacob told me as I followed him out the back door.

Bella? I thought. Then this must be New Moon, since she spent so much time with him when Edward left…wait, then that meant that Jacob wasn't a werewolf yet! But he would be soon…

Once I got back, I would inform Olivia and Nicole what I had discovered.

"Jacob?" Bella called. She sounded worried. There was a hint of pain in her voice. Edward must've just recently left.

"Hey, sorry for the wait! There was someone at the door, her name is Ali."

"Oh. Hi, Ali," Bella mumbled. She managed a quick glance, than looked down again. She must still be heartbroken. For a moment, I almost felt sorry for her, but then I went right back to loathing after what she'd done – or will do – to Jacob.

Whenever Bella was looking away, Jacob was looking longingly at her. I wondered if he was going to imprint on Olivia or Nicole. That would be totally unfair!

After about half an hour or so, Bella stood up. "This has been really fun," she declared. "But I have to get home now." I silently cheered to myself. Jacob and I would be alone!

Bella walked out of the garage and drove away. "What's wrong?" I asked innocently, even though I knew the answer. "She seems sad."

"Her boyfriend moved," Jacob explained.

I scooted a little closer to him, careful not to take it too far.

"What's this you're working on?" I pressed on.

"Oh, just some motorcycles. We're fixing them up and then Bella and I are gonna ride them."

"Cool." I was instantly worried. Was my response too vague? Would the conversation die down, because of me?

"So, where are you from, again?" he asked.

"Los Angeles," I replied.

"Awesome, I've always wanted to go there. Have you ever seen a celebrity?" Score!

"No, I haven't," I admitted. "It's uncommon, but some people have."

"Oh," he mumbled. Ugh! The conversation was surely going to die down this time!

I tried to smile at him. "Maybe you could visit me there someday," I tried.

He faced me fully, and smirked. "Really," he said. He paused for a moment. "I like you." That comment took me by surprise. I smiled back at him.

"I like you, too." Suddenly, I saw his face leaning and coming straight towards me. Panic pulsed through my veins. What should I do now? Kiss him back? This was all going too quick for me. I closed my eyes when our lips touched. I draped my arms around his shoulders, and didn't let go.
