Chapter Eight

Brady's Story

Collin's Point of View

I stare at her, for a long time, before I turn a bright shade of red. What had I just done? I...That's illegal what I just did! I can't go around and just...just..I'm pulled out of my own thought as I look at her in awe.

Her lips are soft and pouted out. On her face are vicious, red scars that make her look as if she had never been loved...how is it possible that somoene couldn't love a girl as sweet and selfless as her? I kiss her scars carefully, and the, my tongue darts out and I run it along the puckered skin. She blushes, and I smile.

Though it's wrong, I enjoy it. "I..I'm sorry." I mumble, right after it happens. I feel very embarressed. Bella doesn't seem to mind though. She rests her head on my chest, and sings to me.

Bella's Point of View

Then, it just...happened.

I look into his eyes, and suddenly feel everything shift around me. Wires are cut, holds are gone, and now...I feel as if something else is keeping me on Earth. I stare into those eyes of his, and I smile, despite the strange moment. My heart swells, the light above me flickers, and there is one word said outside; Imprint. This all happens in a matter of three seconds. I feel everything, and everything feels...good. Pure.

Suddenly, he leans into me again, and kisses my scars gently. I feel my face turn hot. I know I'm blushing. His tongue then traces them, and I feel mesmorized. He is just so gentle with me, no matter what. Even when I am...scarred, and used.

"I...I'm sorry." He says, though, he doesn't need to apologize. I smile with forgiveness and lay my head against his chest. I hear his heart beating evenly, like my own lullaby. I sing to the beat of it, and he sighs above me as he lays his head against the door we were now pushed up against.

''If I were to wake up, and look in the mirror...

I would see a broken girl.

I bet that darling, if you'd see what I see

You'd take my life for a whirl.

Days have changed into forever...

Nights turned into days...

As much as I say I dont like it,

I love it when you walk away..."

He holds me close. I know we have to stop this and talk about what happen, but neither of us want to, so I say nothing. I keep singing though, and he begins to spin me around. I still know, we have to talk, but I can't bring myself to pull away and tell him that.

"Baby, without you, theres just somthing missing.

(Like a night without the moon.)

My heart beats franticly at the thoughts of what we're risking.

(Can't you hear me Love? Bet you do.)

Listen when I tell you there's more than meets the eye.

(Just please listen...)

Remember this had all started from a perfect little lie.

(A Perfect little lie...)"

I look up at him, and he's smling.

"Did you write that Bella?" He asks, a blush covering his face. I nod, and blush along with him. Now it's becoming awkward, and I decided it has to happen sometime, so I begin talking about it.

"Why did you kiss me Collin?" I ask, looking up at him with expectant eyes. His face gets even redder. I tilt my head to one side, like a dog would if he were confused. Collin coughs, and scratches the back of his neck nervously. I can see something change in his eyes, like someone flipped a switch inside of him.

"I...I..." He pauses again, and the suspense is just fucking killing me. I urge him on. "I am a werewolf Bella...I know, it's crazy but-" I interupt him by putting my hand up like a stop signal.

"I know...didn't you see me ride Jacob over here?" I smile, then groan. "Ew...that sounded really gross..." He chuckles, and looks completely at ease. "You stlil didn't answer my question." I remind him. He gets this look that just screams: 'FUCK!' (insert an angry Collin face here). I smile sweetly at him and give him the signature,

Bella puppy dog eyes. He falls for it right away, and I grin.

"There's this thing...called...imprinting. It's when a werewolf finds his soul mate..like love at first sight." He tells my softly. "They werewolf will be anything the girl needs. A big brother, a friend, lover, anything to make her happy." I blink. Is that what...Kim was to Jared, and Nessie was to Jacob? What Emily was to Sam, and what Claire was to Quil? The girls were imprinted on? So...how do I come into this? "Bella...I imprinted on..." He coughs again, and I stiffen, wondering who the lucky girl is..."You." The room goes silent. I no longer hear voices outside, but, yet, I know they're out there. They are listening for my response, through that open window.

"S-so...What does this mean? You'd have to be...like me best friend first then?" I can't help but sound almost mad, and very dissapointed. How long would I have to wait? Collin chuckles, and pats my head.

"Whatever you want. I'll be anything! Even your personal assistant!" He stands and bows to me. "Miss Uley, would you care for a glass of iced tea?" I laugh, and feel the tension fade away. I jump on top of him, demanding a piggy back ride.

"Yes Mr. Locks!" I kick at his sides. "Giddy up!" We laugh, and he jogs me downstairs, being very gentle with my stitched hand. He sets me on the counter when we get to the kitchen, and pours me -and himself- a glass of iced tea. We talk and laugh now, about a lot of things. Like, the teachers I would have when I started school next week...wait WHAT?

"WHAT?" I scream, spitting out my ice tea into the sink I was so conviently placed by. I had to go to a hell hole they call...school? I don't want to go to school! Why owuld I have to? Well, I guess I am only 13, and 13 year olds are required to go to school, but still!

"You have to go to school Bella." He reminds me, placing a hand on my shoulder. "You can even be in the same school as Me and the rest of the guys, We can all sit together at lunch!" I look at him funny. He's in high school...doesn't that mean I wouldn't be in the same school? Because...I was only going to be 14 this year. Aren't freshman turning 15?

"But I'm 13..." I say, again, tilting my head to the side.

"Yeah, but, high school also has eighth grade attachted to it. Since the middle school didn't have enough room, and the highschool had extra, they put eighth in our school. I used to kind of hate that...but now I'm fine cause you'll be one." He winks, and I grin.

The more we talk, the happier I get. It must be part of the whole imprinting business...

"Hey Bella..." He says, pointing to my scars. "I hope you don't mind me asking...how did you get them." He's referring to my scars. After taking a large swig of my frdrink, I tell the story, looking at the ground most of the time, sneaking glances at him with anxious eyes.

"-and, I realized that it was him who gave me these ones." I point to the three scars that are jagged, not the nice, straight one. He's shaking violently, and I back up, away from him. "C-Collin? Stop!" He doesn't, and I feel cornered. He's inbetween me,and the cupboard now, and I can't move. His shaking has increased, his limbs have begun tightening in response to hi anger...I see him trying to control it, but he just can't.

"What in the world is going- Collin!" Sam yells, grabbing onto him. "Calm down. Deep breaths..." I take deep breaths too, nervous. Tentively, I reach out, and touch Collin's arm. His shaking is imideately stopped, and he looks back at me with sad, worried eyes. I give him a knowing smile, and pat his hand softly. I then turn to the rest of the werewolves now in the room.

"So...werewoles eh?" I say, trying to lighten the mood. "Totally called it!" I give Jacob an unexpected high five, and he laughs loudly.

"She really did." He explains to everyone who is looking confused and curious. "She guessed it, and was right..." I beam. I always knew being a guesser would get me somewhere in life!

"Wow. That has never happened before...well, except- " Embry cuts off and glances at Brady, who has now sitting at the table, looking anywhere but me. I can see the sadness in his eyes, despite th smile on his liips.

"Hey Emily..." I turn to her. She's right behind me, smiling. "Can Brady sleep over?" I ask, putting on th puppy dog face, and pout. She smiles at me, and nods sweetly. Her hands pat my hair, and she traces the scars I have gently, before kising my scarred temple motherly. I smile at her.

"Yes you may Bella. Just please get to bed early..." I agree, than turn to Brady.

"Brady? Please? I haven't seen you in so long!" I beg him. I even get down on my knees and clasp my hands together dramaticallly. "I'll give you a cookie! You wanna a cookie boy? Huh? Wanna cookie?" I tease, as if he were a dog wanting a treat. He snorts, then nods at me excidedly. We really had to catch up...I mean, I haven't talked to him in...well, four years.

"Yesssss!" I hiss happily. Which is a strange thing to be able to do. Happy hisses are more like purrs actually...but, you know, whataver! I run up to Brady and fucking launch myelf into his arms, squealing.

"Ouch Bells! Wolf hearing remember?" I blush.

"Sorry bud."

three hours later, after Sam and Emily finally shooed everyone else besides Brady away, me and him sat down in my room, and watched a few movies on Emily's Laptop. Then, after finishing the movie 'Donnie Darko', The lights turned off, and we tried desperately to catch up on what had been going on since we left each other. We lied down on my bedroom floor, just talking.

"Have you imprinted Brady?" I ask suddenly, and Brady looks sad.

"Yeah. I...I imprinted last year, on this girl...I didn't even catch her name, and then, she was gone. I never saw her again. I'm waiting though. II spend a lot of my time...wondering...if she'll ever come back." He sniffs, and I know he's crying. I pat his back, and give him a hug.

"Tell me the whole story Brady...I need to know about this girl..." I whisper, and he does, he begins telling me all of it.

"It was in New York, when my family went there...family vacation..." He coughs. "I was walking with Kim and Jared, when all the sudden, someone ran into me, and we both got knocked down. I looked up, and saw...these perfect clear blue eyes. She was so beautiful Bella...short, spiky red hair, pale, freckles...tiny nose, plump little lips, pretty, curvy face- and body." He blushed. "Her eyes were just so excited and sad...they were really big and they reminded me of a child's eyes..." Brady sniffs again. "She...I don't know. She was bruised and everything, I wondered how she got them. I fell in love in three seconds, and then, she was gone. Her tiny feet, just, ran, and oon enough, two thugs ran past me too. But, by the way she smiled and hugged them, I knew they were her friends...I have no idea where she went Bella. She's just gone." By the time the stories finished I'm crying. If it was like how I feel about Collin...I shut my eyes, and hold up a hand.

There had to be a way I could find this girl...somehow! I would do whatever I could to get this girl to La Push. if only I were...

I open my eyes, and I know I have got this tiny red haired girl wraped around my finger...

"Psychic." Brady looks confused.

"You know a psychic? Or are you one?" His voice is layered with twenty different kinds of confusion. I smile at him.

"A certain pixie vamp I know happens to see the future Brady. I have a plan."

-with that, Brady fell asleep. I stayed up, took out my notebook, and, from Brady's description, tried to draw his imprint. Big eyes, curvy face, plump lips, and a tiny nose...short spiky hair, and an interesting array of freckles...i smiled at the drawing, and set it next to Brady's sleping face. They would be a good couple. I could already see it. I sighed, and layed my head on the pillow.
