Scarlette's POV
Quil was going to die. I was, for one, having a peaceful dream, and then he wakes me up to tell me it's 4am. It was bad enough that I had told Jake everything that happened in my dreams, and then, I let my self-conscious slip, and told Jake about having the rape dreams. It happened along time ago, though. Some of it was my fault. I was at my old best friend's 19th birthday party, and everyone was drunk, including me. Her boyfriend was completely out of it, and came on to me. I told him no; I wasn't as drunk as him and had some common sense left, and went outside to sit in the woods so I could clear mind. Of course, her boyfriend followed me, and when I told him no again, he came at me.
Of course I didn't tell Jake that. I think that was the only thing I didn't tell him. I was now officially embarrassed to see Seth, too. I mean honestly. How many girls fantasize about a guy that they haven't even went on the first date yet, and then tell them? Well, Jake told him, but my point stands final.
I am completely embarrassed.
It was 10 am, and I finally made the decision to get up. I needed to think, and this house isn't the place to think. I went to open my door to go to my closet, and Jake fell in. He was asleep, against my door, and now laid in my floor, still sleeping.
I just stepped over him, and went to get sweats, a jacket, and tennis shoes. I went in the bathroom so I could pee, and pull back my hair. By the time I left, I was in a red and black Nike sweat suit, and my black and white tennis shoes. I quickly made my way downstairs, (and passed Quil who was asleep on the couch) and out the front door. I started to jog. I needed to run to clear my mind. I always ran when I lived back in West Virginia. Clover Patch Acres had trails at the top of the hills, and I would run all day.
The trail got more difficult from the tree roots. I was getting at a steady pace, when I heard a noise. I slowed to a stop, and looked around.
I saw a blur go through the trees.
Okay, now I was scared.
I took off running in a random direction, and gained up a fast speed. I looked behind me, and saw the blur right on my tail. When I focused on running, I tripped over a tree root.
I fumbled on the ground, and then I was falling. In seconds, I was in water. I tried to get to the top, but turned and hit my head on a rock. I stopped moving completely. Slowly, the light begun to fade, and the blackness took over.
Seth's POV
I was running in wolf form trying to catch up with Scarlette. She left the house when we were all asleep. The screen door slamming woke me up. Quil and Jake were still out.
Damn, she's fast. I thought to myself as I chased her. I moved in closer, then she fell. I saw her fumbling, but before I was there, she was over the cliff. I Phased back, threw on my shorts, and jumped off into the water after her. I was underwater looking at her when she hit her head. I pushed the water out of my way as I went down to get her.
If she can see the future, why didn't she see this coming? I thought as I grabbed her arm, and started up towards the top of the water. I could feel her pulse rushing, but that was good, that meant she wasn't dead.
I know it's short, but I thought it was necessary.
