Chapter Five
Friday
Embry POV
Summer was ending soon and I didn't like it.
The end of summer meant I would be spending less time with Lydia. And she said she was only working at the Library for the summer.
Would she still hang out with me once school started? She would surely make friends once she started at Forks High, she was too likable not to. She's my imprint, so I might be a little biased, but still I couldn't see her having a hard time making friends.
There was only one week of summer vacation left. It was around this time that Jake told me that we were having a bonfire soon. We usually had one about twice a month; both packs meeting up to talk. It was more of a social gathering than anything else. I had skipped the last few to spend more time with Lydia.
I didn't think much of it until Jake said I needed to come along and bring Lydia.
''Wait, what? Why? Isn't it too soon?''
''Embry, man, chill. You don't have to tell her, but it would probably help if she heard the legends. Plus, Sam and his pack found out along with my sister, Kim, and Emily. The girls really want to meet her, so do Sam and the others.''
I gave it some thought. I knew what Jacob was saying made sense. Didn't mean that it didn't make me nervous.
''Alright, I'll ask her.''
''Don't worry Embry, all we're going to do is meet her, talk a little, tell her the legends, and eat some good food. What could go wrong?'' I know it wasn't a real question so I just smiled and nodded.
I got nervous every time I went to ask her so I ended up waiting until the last minute to ask. The day before the bonfire to be exact, Friday.
When I went to meet Lydia at the library she was laughing and talking to two boys, twins from the looks of it.
They looked about 5'8 feet tall, against Lydia's small 5'2. They both had curly hair, one had his cropped super short, while the other was a bit longer and a little shaggy.
''I can't believe you guys did that! And now I have to be your warden; not cool.'' Despite her words Lydia was grinning.
''I know tell me about it and it was all his idea. Now I'm in trouble too,'' said the one with the shaggy hair.
''My idea? You're the one who said that no one would care since they're completely tone deaf to start with,'' said the other.
''Guys, it doesn't even matter. What matters is you got caught, but seriously what did you put in the organ,'' my imprint said, completely confusing me. Organ?
''Oh, you know, like we said, gunk,'' said Shaggy grinning at the other.
''Yeah, gross stuff and junk, gunk or grunk or juss,'' said the other.
''But we like how gunk sounds, don't you?'' asked Shaggy
''Never mind, forget I asked,'' replied Lydia shaking her head. She glanced over her shoulder as though she knew I was watching her. "Hey Embry."
''Hi Lydia, how've you been?'' I ask walking over to her.
''Good, and you?''
"Good. Good.'' Before I could further the conversation the sound of loud coughing, practically hacking, interrupted. We both turned towards the twins to see them dramatically coughing.
''Ah-em! Aren't you going to introduce us?'' called the one with the cropped hair.
''Yeah Lydia, aren't you going to introduce us?'' added Shaggy. Lydia rolled her eyes and made an over exaggerated gesture pointing at the boys.
''This is Isaac and Joshua Webber, they're my cousins. The one with the shaggy hair is Isaac and the other is Joshua.'' She then moved her gesture to me. ''Trickster Twins, this is Embry Call.''
''Trickster Twins?'' I asked.
''They pretty much pranked me my whole first week here. But then I got them back when they least expected.''
''Tch… Like you could prank us,'' said Joshua crossing his arms over his chest with a disbelieving roll of his eyes.
''Maybe, maybe not. Point is I got your parents to go vegan and gluten free for a month, and put you two on the adopt-a-highway volunteer group for two-consecutive weeks,'' Lydia replied with a smirk.
''It's still not a prank,'' Joshua shot back.
''No, but it was payback and it was glorious.''
''This is true,'' said Isaac.
''Okay then,'' I said.
''So, what's up?'' asked Lydia looking up at me.
''Well, my friends and I are having a bonfire tomorrow. I know its last minute, but would you want to go?'' I rushed out.
''Tomorrow?'' she asked frowning.
''Yeah,'' I said, my own smile beginning to fade.
''Well it's just the Trickster Twins got into a bit of trouble. I'm supposed to be supervising them since their parents have to make a trip out to Seattle for a conference this weekend,'' Lydia said with a sad shrug of her shoulders.
''Oh,'' was all I could say.
''Well…'' called out Isaac.
''What?'' Lydia asked, eyebrows raised.
"I'm sure if you asked my mom and dad they'd be cool with it if you brought us along,'' said Isaac.
''How do you figure that?'' asked Lydia.
''Well, think about it, they know you won't let us do anything stupid. So… if we sell it right we could go,'' replied Joshua.
''Ah-huh, and why would I do that?'' asked Lydia.
''Because you love us,'' they said together batting their eyelashes
''Look, we all win here; we get to not be under house arrest. You included, and you get to go hang out with lover-boy over here,'' said Isaac. Lydia glared and her cheeks tinged with pink.
''Is it really smart to tease me right now?''
''Idiot,'' murmured Joshua, hitting his brother on the shoulder. ''Come on, Lydia we'll be on our best behaviour,'' pleaded Joshua.
''That's not good enough,'' said Lydia. ''You have to be on someone else's best behaviour, not yours.''
''So… we can go?'' asked Isaac.
''Maybe, we gotta talk to your parents,'' answered Lydia.
''What are we waiting for?'' asked Joshua.
''Yeah, let's go. Your shift's over, right?'' asked Isaac as both started dragging her out the door. Lydia, shaking her head and rolling her eyes, managed to call out to me before they got her out the door.
''Hopefully, I'll see you tomorrow. But I'll call you for sure.'' I stood there for a while, not really understanding what just happened.
