We went to Emily and Sam's afterwards and they all congratulated us. It was nice to be in public with Paul and not argue. Nayelli phoned to say she is with old Quil at home as some boy has phased. That's me not going home for a while. The boys all dashed off to do find the boy and help him before Paul left he kissed me and said he would come back for me later. Turns out the boy was Embry, this shouldn't be awkward I didn't kiss him before. Jokes. Paul came in fuming, oops.
"Look babe calm down. It was just a kiss one drunken night. It didn't mean anything, no offense Em."
"None taken, she is right Paul. You still had a girlfriend anyway."
"Not helping Embry."
"Embry she's right. Go sit in the kitchen with Emily and do not eat a thing." Sam to the rescue.
"Ok. Just to let you know Ar if Paul doesn't satisfy you, you know where to find me." He winked and then ran into the kitchen, missing Paul by inches. Sam yelled at him though.
"EMBRY! That boy is a bloody nuisance. Don't let him wind you up Paul."
"He isn't saying things about your girl is he?"
"That's because he isn't brave or stupid."
"True. Come on Ariel you can stay with me until Old Quil leaves." I was slowly falling asleep so he carried me up to his house.
I woke up the next morning with my head and Paul's chest, his arm was wrapped protectively around me. I was just lying there contently when I heard his mother shout up "Paul are you up, you have school today and you are not being late." Shit! I forgot all about school.
"Babe get up we have school I'll see you outside in half an hour, love you" I kissed him and them climbed out his window and down the tree, just as I got outside I heard his mum start screaming at him to get up. Today is our first day as a couple, for the first time I'm nervous for school. Paul came and got me and while we were in the car he held my hand and drove with the other, just as we were reaching the end of the road someone ran in front of the car. Paul quickly stopped and missed the person by inches, sadly. I'm not being harsh but the person he almost hit could do with a few knocks.
"Watch the fuck where you're going Call next time I won't stop."
"Well that's rude, you could have killed me."
"You're a werewolf you can't get killed by a car."
"How do you know that? I saw my life flash before my own two eyes. Thanks for the lift Paul."
"What li" before he could finish Embry got in the car. Great at least Jared and Kim get to drive together alone. Embry had his head stuck in between us two and was rambling on.
"So today is a day of firsts, you two as a couple and me as a werewolf. It will also be my first day without Quil and Jake." He got sad at the end at the thought of not being able to talk to his best friends. Not long after we reached the school. Everyone stared as we got out. No one expected us three to be together and when we joined Kim and Jared and then Paul and I held hands everyone started whispering very poorly at that. It of course wound up Paul and he turned around and kissed me full force on the lips more murmurs started and then we heard a gasp. When we broke apart we saw it was Kelly her face was a mixture of anger, sadness and ugliness. Shit boys.
