Thanks so much for the comments, they really help. :) Jacob in next chapter, maybe, perhaps?
Paul trotted up to the wooden house, which looked almost identical to all the others I had seen in La Push. A group of huge boys- most of them shirtless, like Paul- crowded around the door, wolfish grins plastered all over their faces. A few of of them jeered when Paul set me down, causing me to turn even more scarlet under my caramel skin.
I was going to murder my little brother.
"There you go." Paul said, patting my head as if I was a trophy he had brought home.
"I hope you get syphilis and die." I whispered, stalking back into the house after the group of boys.
"Don't be hard on Paul, Aidyn. He was just just doing his job." The tallest of the boys told me. He looked too old to be hanging out with a bunch of teenagers to me.
"Is his job to frighten young women and carry them home to have his way with them while they're in shock?" I asked, feeling annoyed. I knew the embarrassment would settle in later. Hopefully after I got home. "If so hes doing splendidly."
"Feisty," I heard a thin-faced boy mutter and throw himself back down into one of the reclining chairs. "I like it."
"Embry." The one who had told me about Paul threw the so-called Embry a dirty look before turning back to me. "Sam Uley." He said, his voice deep and smooth. Definitely a mans voice.
"Aidyn Williams." I shook his hand grudgingly, noting that his hand had been as warm as Paul's arms. I didn't like these boys. The odd way they watched Tommy unnerved me. I had never liked people taking a special interest in my family.
Sam captured my attention, quickly introduced me to the other boys. Name flew through my ears, only a few catching. Paul, Embry, Quil, Collin. All of them looked like brothers. Identical brown skin and short, black hair. A stab of pain went through my chest when I realized I had included Tommy in that group. His hair was still long though, hanging down to his shoulders and smashed up in the back.
"Nice to meet you all. Lets go, Tommy." I stepped away from the group of boys, sweating from the stifling heat they all generated. I was still angry at the fact he had decided to stay here without telling me.
"What? You just got here." Embry swung to his feet, looking around worriedly.
"And now we are leaving." I said, giving them my best smile before grabbing Tommy by his sleeve and marching back out the door.
"But, what about Ja-"
"Shut up!" Quil whispered, punching Embry violently in the side.
"Later guys." Tommy yelled as I drug him out of the house.
"You are in so much trouble, young man." I scorned as soon as we were out of earshot.
"What? How am I in trouble?" He swatted my hand away from his shirt. "You're only three years older than me."
"You said you'd be home before it got dark." I ignored the jab about my age.
"No, you said I would be home before it got dark." He rebutted, feeling smug about himself.
"I also said I wasn't going to see your friends today." I climbed a log he simply stepped over, and smirked at me. "And guess what? I saw your little buddies today. One of them even took me for a little ride."
"Yes, I'm sure he did."
"What?" I stumbled, catching myself right before I fell.
"Nothing."
"Shut up." I stomped through the house, flipping on the lights as I went. My little brothers laughter trailed me until I slammed the door to my room shut.
"Goodnight, Aidyn."
I didn't bother to answer as I pried my window open and pulled myself up into the sill. I shook the pack around gently before drawing out a long, white cigarette and popping it into my open mouth with a desperate sigh. And patted my jackets pockets.
"Now, where did that damn lighter go?
