Hiiii you guys. Am I late on this update? Hmm I'm not exactly sure. Sorry :( Well anywho I liked this chapter. The end is my fave. Hopefully it'll be yours too. Reviews are awesome and make me happy. And I'd like to adress this now since I probably never will in the story. Bella probably won't get any mention. I mean she has nothing to do with Soleil and would probably only cause her pain so why would Jacob mention her? Besides he imprinted. He really doesn't care about Bella anymore.

We arrived at Sam's house. For some reason this seemed to be the big hot spot. We walked up to the door and went inside. Everyone was crowded in the small living room around Emily.

"Jake guess what?" Embry said.

"What?" he asked joining the group. I chose to stay to the side.

"Emily's pregnant!" Seth said excitedly.

"Oh wow. Congratulations," he said giving her a hug.

"Congratulations" I said smiling. I took a seat next to Leah. I hadn't really talked to her much. "Hey," I said.

She gave me a look then muttered, "Hello."

Jacob seemed really close to these people. I wanted to maintain decent relationships with them so I attempted small talk with her. The others weren't really paying attention to us. They were all consumed in their own conversations. Although I did notice Kim watching me from the corner of her eye.

"So what do you do for fun?" I asked.

"Hang out with these losers," she replied annoyed.

"Oh. They don't seem that bad though," I said.

"Trust me. You don't have to spend all your time with one of them," she said rolling her eyes.

"Oh well you don't have to be with them all the time. Me, you, Kim, and Emily could go do something together," I suggested. Everyone else stopped talking and stared at us. Emily and Kim smiled. Although I'm positive Kim's was fake.

"Uh sure," she said uninterested.

"How's tomorrow?" I asked. "I need a few new outfits."

"That sounds fun," Emily said clapping her hands excitedly.

"Wow Soleil that was really sweet," Seth said happily.

"Awwe thank you," I said smiling brightly. Everyone else shook their heads and went back to their conversations.

"Kim we already decided that I would drive," I said for what seemed like the 100th time. The entire way to town she complained that she wanted to drive. When we finally got to the mall I got out of the car and slammed my door. "Fine Kim you can drive home," I said.

I knew her. She was only doing this because I invited Leah to hang out with us. Apparently Kim hates Leah and Leah knows this. Kim says Leah only did this to bother her. Well how was I supposed to know? Kim was on my back about it all night. I was praying that today would go well.

"I need a dress," I stated as soon as we got inside.

"Me too," Leah said.

"Alright me and Leah will go get dresses together. Kim and Em you two can go together," I said already walking away. As we were walking around I noticed a lot of guys staring at Leah. I mean a lot. I wanted to ask her something but I didn't want to be rude.

"Uhm Leah do you have a boyfriend?" I asked.

"No," she said quickly.

"Mind my asking why?" I asked. I didn't want to pry. I knew exactly how it felt to have other people in your business. She didn't say anything. "Look it's okay. I know how it feels to have other people in your business. You don't have to say anything."

"I'm a bitch," she said.

"What?" I asked confused.

"I don't have a boyfriend because I'm a bitch. Of course I've had them before but they never work out. I always cause problems."

"I don't think that's true," I said.

"No it is. I used to date Sam. Then he left me for Emily. It hurt a lot but I got over it like two years ago. I had a boyfriend after that. It was really great. He was a really great guy. He actually loved me. And I loved him back. But then things got to good. I was waiting for him to break my heart."

"I became defensive and stopped talking to him. I didn't think it was worth it. I thought it'd be over soon. So he broke up with me. I expected that. But like a month later I realized something. He might not have broken up with me if hadn't acted so distant. I had ruined that amazing relationship. I just don't want to be bothered anymore."

I didn't say anything else. I definitely didn't say I'm sorry. That'd be the worst. She'd probably never forgive me. I knew what pity felt like. It was hell.

--

"You two have fun?" Kim asked sarcastically. Shut up.

"Actually Kim yes we did," Leah said smugly.

"Well let's go. I told Jared I'd come over later tonight," she said heading to the car.

Me, Emily, and Leah rolled our eyes. Kim could be so childish.

--

I dropped Kim off at Jared's place. He asked if I wanted to stay and hang out but Kim didn't look to happy about that. I'm pretty sure she's mad at me. I headed back to the house and parked the car. I really didn't wanna just hang there so I went inside and changed. Nothing like a midnight run.

When I was just about finished I ran into Jacob. Surprise surprise. "Hi," I said out of breath.

"Hey," he said smiling.

He always looked so happy to see me and I felt that way.

"What brings you out tonight?" I asked.

"Just wanted some fresh air. You?" he asked.

"Well first I dropped Kim off at Jared's. he asked me if I wanted to stay and chill but Kim really didn't look like she wanted me to stay so I headed off. Actually I think she's kinda mad at me about the Leah thing. How was I supposed to know that they didn't get along? And since I didn't wanna be stuck in the house I came out for a run," I said.

"I don't think she's mad at you," he said.

"I don't know. She was acting really childish today. She always acts like that when she's mad," I said annoyed. We started walking back to the beach.

"I got this really cute gray and black shirt," I said sitting down. He sat next to me.

"I bet it looks amazing," he said smiling. God he was amazing. He was actually interested in this crap.

"Why don't you tell me something about your brother and sister," he said. "You never talk about them."

"Well let's start with Cain. He's 21 and the oldest. He loves sports and plays football. He played for his college's team. We tease each other endlessly. He's way overprotective. One of the best big brothers ever."

"And then there's Cecilia. She's fifteen and boy crazy. She's an amazing little sister though. She really looks up to me. She's always asking for advice. She's protective of me too. For some reason they seem to think I need protection," I said rolling my eyes.

"They sound nice," he said smiling.

"You'd think that. But tell me more about Rachel and Rebecca."

"Well you met Rachel. She's cool. As you can see she's with Paul. She's a second grade teacher. And Rebecca? Haven't seen her in a while. She calls petty often but doesn't come around. She's still in school. Wants to do something in business. She doesn't like this small town very much. But we're all pretty cool with it," he said.

"I'm sorry. I didn't mean to bring up a touchy subject," I said.

"No it's fine really."

My phone started vibrating. I took it out of my pocket and had a text message from Kim.

Where the hell are you? Get your butt home now!

--Kim

"Ugh," I said sighing.

"What?" he asked.

"I better get home. Kim's complaining. She's pretending that she actually cares," I whined.

"Of course she cares. But I'll walk you," he said.

We were almost there. I couldn't talk to him. All I was thinking about was when he was going to kiss me. Hopefully he'd do it like now.

"Alright well I'll see you later," I said slowly. Come on now Jacob you can do it. I lingered there and looked at him biting my lip. Maybe that would give him and idea. He kept smiling at me. Things didn't look like they were moving anywhere. I took a deep breath and turned around.

He grabbed me and pulled me back. Finally kissing me. It was so amazing. I was actually glad he had waited so long. It made me want it more. It made it feel so much better to finally get it. Kinda like on Christmas when your parents hide your presents around the house. It's so much better to wait for Christmas morning than to ruin the surprise. This was well worth the wait.

The porch light came on. I didn't care and it seemed like he didn't either. We were to consumed with each other. I held him tighter trying to pull him closer.

"Soleil Luna Smith Get In This House Now!" Kim shouted from the porch. I slowly pulled away and started grinning at him.

"Night," I whispered. I walked to the porch and past Kim into the house. I eventually made my way into the bedroom and collapsed onto the bed. Kim came in right behind me.

"What did you think you were doing young lady?" she asked as if she was my mother.

"Kim. That was the most amazing kiss of my entire life," I said sighing happily.

She rolled her eyes then fell on her bed. "You know I felt the same way when I got with Jared," she said.

"Really?" I asked.

"Yeah. I had liked Jared for years and he never noticed me. Then one day he came to school and started talking to me. A lot. Then he asked me out. I was so unbelievably happy. The guy who I had a crush on for years finally liked me back. And when we kissed for the first time. It was like magic," she said.

"It really is," I said agreeing.

"What?" she asked.

"Like magic," I said.

We talked for a little bit longer then got ready for bed. Kim was already asleep but I was having some troubled. I took my locket and opened it looking at the picture inside. "Grant, I'm finally happy," I whispered closing it and my eyes.
