Katie
Chapter 14
The last thing I remembered after crawling into bed with Seth was how warm he was and how much I now knew he cared. That night I had the most wonderful dream about the two of use. We were at first beach sitting near a small fire with some of the other pack couples. I was leaning into Seth's and his arms were wrapped around me. There was a group of children playing in front of us all running around laughing and screaming. One of the boys where running around with a piece of seaweed chasing the girls around. One of the smallest girls with long dark hair screamed and ran straight towards us screaming at us. She jumped into my arms and hid her face in my shoulder.
"Mommy, mommy Jeremy won't stop trying to throw the seaweed at us."
"Its ok hun its just seaweed it won't hurt you and he's only chasing you because your screaming."
"But mommy its gross." She stuck her lip out in a pouty face.
Seth leaned in to whisper to the little girl. "Why don't you go chase him and try to give him a kiss. Then he will run from you."
A big smile broke across her face as she leaned in and kissed Seth and said, "Ok daddy". And she jumped up and ran off to go chase the boy around trying to get her arms around him to kiss him.
"You know your going to scare him for life when it comes to girls." It was Paul he was sitting next to Rachel who was holding a baby in her arms. Everyone just laughed when Seth just shrugged at Paul. The little girl just ran back to me and jumped in my lap just to tell me "I did it mommy I did it I kissed Jeremy." I was pulled out of my dream by someone picking my hand up and trying to move away from me. It took me a minute to realize it was Seth who was trying to get out of bed.
"Were are you going?"
"I need to go check in with the guys and run patrols for a few hours."
"Do you have to?"
"If I don't Sam will send one of the guys after me."
"Ok be careful."
"I will. Just go back to sleep I will be back before you wake up."
"Mmmmm Kay." I fell back asleep only to dream more about the little girl. She was our daughter I new it. I never had dreamed of having a child but it just felt right. I dreamed of her and Seth until I was awoken by my phone ringing. I picked it up and with out looking answered it.
"Hello."
"Hey Katie did I wake you up."
"Yeah mom you did."
"Well I was just letting you know that I just got off the plane and I will be home in a few hours."
"That's great."
"You don't sound to excited."
"Just tired."
"Well I am at the car I will be about another two hours to drive home. When I get there will Seth be there you know I need to meet that boy."
"He will be he had to run to la push for a little bit this morning but he will be back soon. He didn't want to wake me up that early so he went ahead without me."
"Ok well get some more sleep I will be there soon and we should go have lunch together too. Bye Katie."
"Bye mom"
I tried to go back to sleep but it just wasn't happening after laying there for over an hour I finally gave up and went downstairs. I was starting to think that after two nights with Seth I was never going to be able to sleep without him. That was just great because after last night who knows when I would be able to fall asleep with him again. My mom wasn't the type to just let any boy I wanted to stay over.
So to kill time until mom was going to get home I went down stairs and put me a pop tart in the toaster then remembered that Seth left this morning with noting but his shorts. Crap he could not walk back in here with mom home with noting but his cut off shorts. So I pulled out a clean shirt or what I thought was clean from his bag along with a pair of socks out of his bag. I found his shoes and stuffed the socks in the shoes and put them by the door. I then ran up stairs and opened my window and used the window to hang the shirt outside so that Seth could climb the tree to get the shirt. I knew he always left to go into the woods by my window and that when he got back he would see the shirt. I went back to my pop tart and sat down to eat and find something to watch while I waited for someone to come back. Mom just happened to be the first one to get back. Mom came through the front door carrying her computer bag and dragging her suit case behind her. She stopped and put her suite case and bag down before coming to the living room to check on me.
"Katie." She gave me a tight hug like she always dose when coming home from a long trip.
"Hey mom."
She looked down at my arm. "So it's worse than you told me it was."
"I just didn't want you to worry too much. I am fine just some stitches and a brace."
"I want to look at that later. So where is this Seth of yours?"
"Mom please be nice to him I really like him."
"I will but really where is he?"
"He still is in La Push he should be here soon." Right after that left my mouth there was a knock at the door it had to be him. No one really knew where our house was unless you knew where the turn off was. We had to wrap a piece of orange plastic tape to a tree just to remember where it is. "That's probably him".
"Well then I will get it."
I heard my mom open the door and after taking a tiny look I saw Seth's face. I just then remembered I was still wearing those short shorts and tank top and my hair was a mess. He just kept staring at me until my mom coughed to get his attention again. He looked back to my mom as she started to talk to him. I pulled my hoodie off the back of the chair and pulled it on to try and keep Seth's attention off me.
"You must be Seth
Yes ma'ma I am." Aww he was being really nice but I could tell he was nerves.
"Well come on in then." Mom moved aside so that Seth could come in. "Well why don't you come have some hot tea with Katie and I."
"No thank you not much of a tea person."
"Well how about some hot chocolate then."
"Yes please."
As always Seth came straight to me and sat down and picked up my hand. He got my attention my pointing to his shirt and shoes and saying thank you silently. I knew he would have been so embarrassed if he came back and my mom was here and he had no shirt or shoes on. Mom came back and set all three mugs down before sitting down with us. Out of nowhere Seth let go of my hand and wrapped his hands around the mug.
"So I am just going to get to the point you met at the beach." I cringed at this great mom scare him to death why don't you.
We both nodded
"Were Katie hurt her arm?"
Another nod
"And Seth you slept down here on the couch every night." Please say yes please say yes was all I could think.
"Yes ma ma. I did." Thank you
"And how is your arm let me see?"
"I am fine I go back in a few days and Dr. Cullen will look at it."
"I don't care let me see." I had to pull up my hoodie sleeve that I pulled on to show mom just how much damage I did.
"Its time to change the bandages anyways just pull at the tape to get it open." I knew I could not move while mom was looking at my arm and Seth was the one to put the bag up so I had to get him to get it.
"Seth were is the bag?"
"Up stairs I will go get it."
Once Seth was all the way upstairs and what she thought was out of hearing range mom finally said. "He seams like a nice boy."
"He is mom. He has taken care of me this whole time. If it wasn't for him I would have been hurt worse or not even gotten to the hospital when I did."
"I am happy he was there. I really want to know what they put in the water here though. He is the forth boy his size I have seen since being here."
"Maybe it's the Quileute thing."
"I think so." Mom stopped talking to look at my arm I could tell she was not happy that I said she shouldn't have came back. "Rocks did this?"
"Yeah." Seth was pulling out what was needed to change the bandage.
"When do you need to go back in?"
"About two days Dr. Cullen said to just come in."
"Ok I will go with you to see if there's anything I need to know and now tell me how to wrap this up."
I was telling mom how to wrap up my arm since Seth wasn't going to be able to do it anymore. After I had fresh bandages on I had to go upstairs and change. This left Seth down stairs with my mom alone which scared me just a bit. I did not want to leave him down stairs to long alone. I took my hoodie off a little bit to fast and hurt my arm but kept going pulling on my favorite tightish jeans and a red sweater.
I knew they were talking I just hoped things weren't so bad but I didn't have that much time to think about it before mom got up and walked towards me. "I am going to go upstairs and change I will give you two a few minutes before we go to lunch."
"Thanks mom."
I could not help but smile when I looked at him I just had to be close to him. "Do you want to go outside for a few minutes?" I just nodded at him so be took my hand and we went out of the door and sat down on the steps. Seth wrapped his arms around me while I leaned on his side. "So how was my mom not to harsh I hope."
"Everything was fine really she was just worried about you."
"She wants to go to the diner in town and caught up from the past week."
"That's good you to have a lot to talk about."
"Yeah I can tell she is going to ask a lot about you."
"I would too but you do know there are things you can't tell her right."
"Yes everything about what you are."
"Yeah I am sorry you have to keep that from her but you only know because you're my imprint."
"Its ok it's important to you. I won't be long you can come back over if you want to."
"No you should have some time with your mom."
"Please I don't know what to do when you're gone."
"You know I can't say no to you. Tonight when you get back I will be in the woods open your window and I will come in that way and see you tonight before you go to sleep."
"Thanks."
"I am going to go. Have fun with your mom I will pick but my bag later and I will see you soon." He kissed me on the cheek again and I held him tight. I watched him disappear in the trees. Only to see mom come out a few minutes later. "Are you ready to go?"
"Yeah." I wasn't that to happy that Seth had to leave but I knew he had too.
"Where did Seth go?"
"He decided to leave to give us some time to get caught up."
"That's nice of him."
"Yeah."
"Well let's go." We both got in the car and we drove to the only diner in town. After sitting silent in the car and trying to think of something to say I just gave up. Why was the only thing on my mind Seth? Because he wasn't here he was now on my mind. It physically hurt me for him not to be here with me. It made me wonder if this was what he was feeling and if this was normal. Or if it was just because us being together was so new. I was pulled out of thinking about Seth when mom pulled into the parking lot.
"Ok why are you so quite."
"I don't know just thinking a lot."
"About?"
"Mom."
"Come on its Seth right."
"Ok mom it's him. I just miss him that's all."
"You will see him tomorrow right and you can call him."
"Yeah I know it's just that for a week he has always been there."
"Well lets go in and sit down and talk some more." So we walked in and found a booth near the back so that we could talk and caught up. Again mom started on with Seth again. Right after we ordered our food.
"So tell me about Seth."
"Mom please don't."
"I just want to know more about the boy."
"Well he's great. All week he has been taking care of me. He didn't have to he just saw me fall and helped me. He told me about his dad too so he understands about that too."
"You really care about him don't you?"
"Yeah I do he cares a lot about me too."
"So do you have any clue why he is so tall how old is he?"
"I think it just runs in his family he's fifth teen."
"Really I thought you had something with younger boys."
"I do but I didn't know he was fifth teen when we met. He doesn't look it but he's not the normal fifth teen year old boy anyways. He's so much more mature than most. I think it's because of his dad he took up a lot when his dad died. He thinks it's his job to take care of his mom and sister."
"yeah I expect so. The waitress came by with our food and set it down in front of us."
"Well what's going on with you missing school?"
"One of Seth's friends went to my teachers and his and got all our work. It's all done I just have to turn it in tomorrow when I go back to class."
"Does he go to school with you?"
"No, he goes to school on the reservation everyone does."
"Oh I didn't know there was a school there still."
"His mom was ok with him missing so much school to be with you."
"Yeah not in the beginning but once she saw how bad it was when she came while I was still asleep she couldn't make him leave. I was a little scared and he knew it. He didn't want to leave me there alone."
"Well I am happy him and his friends helped you."
"Me too there all really nice."
We finished up lunch and decided to just head back home. I was happy the interrogation about Seth was over its not like there was that many guys in the past. I wasn't even really sure to do with this whole imprinting thing. I knew I wanted to be with him and that that I cared about him maybe even love him. I was up in my room reading my favorite book Born of Night waiting for Seth to show up. While all of this was going on in my head it was getting hard to concentrate on the book. But I wasn't to sure how he was going to get in my window. Yet he sounded confident that he would be able to climb up to a seconded story window some how. I pulled my mind away from Seth as I remembered how he looked the last time I saw him to try and keep reading.
When I was about to give up and the book and try to do something else I rock came through my open window and landed on my floor. Then two more come through the window when I tried to get to the window. I was not surprised to see Seth down by the tree with another rock in his hand about to throw it up. As soon as I saw him I could feel a smile coming.
"Hey can I come up."
"Yeah but how."
"Step back." So I took a few steps back to make sure I wasn't in the way. Before I knew it I saw Seth hanging on a tree breach swing to come through the window. And there he was standing in my room with no shirt or shoes just his cut off shorts he was wearing earlier to day. He came over to me and wrapped his arms around me in a tight hug and a kiss on the cheek. We both went over to my bed and sat down.
"So how was lunch with your mom?"
"It was ok she asked a lot about you."
"Yeah I thought she would. Was it to horrible?"
"No not really just embarrassing."
"Embarrassing really." He was smiling I knew he was picking on me some way. He pulled me back to lie down and wrap me in his warm arms.
"Yeah"
"Well how"
"I don't know I don't like talking about boys with my mom."
"Well if it helps I got asked twenty questions by he guys. They won't give up on anything. And then a talk from my mom."
"It helps a little."
"I shouldn't stay long we both have school and I don't want us to get caught."
"I know I want you to stay but I understand."
"I was thinking earlier do you want to go on a date this weekend."
"Really where."
"Not sure yet but I want it to be a surprise to you."
"Ok just tell me when and where."
"As soon as I know you will know." Now you better get some sleep and me too it's late. I crawled up into bed and got under my blankets Seth came up and sat next to me.
"You know I am tempted to stay here. But Mom is waiting for me. I will call you tomorrow before I go on patrol. And before I head home I will come by and see you."
"Ok I would like that. Night"
"Good night Hun." He leaned down to hug me and gave me a kiss on the check again. Before climbing out the window again and disappearing in the night.
Ok just a quick note the book that I said Katie was reading born of night is a real book. Its one of my favorites so if you want to check it out Google it it's a awesome book. Oh and I don't recommend if you read it if your under 15 because it is a adult book with cussing and all that so if you don't like that then I would stay away from it. Oh and review for a sneak peak.
