Thank you everyone these really made me feel happy. I was afraid that I would only get one review. Again thank you so much!! I hope I didn't forget anyone or misspelled their penname if so please contact me and I will change it thank you!! Now I've talked to much so………ON WITH THE STORY!!
Paul's POV
Life isn't fair. I have no idea how many times I heard that or kept telling myself. Out of all the pack I have the worst temper. I still hadn't imprinted. I guess it's good though, I mean if I were to imprint I would only hurt her. I don't need an imprint. I'm fine with being by myself. If only I could convince myself of that.
'Paul it's your turn to patrol. Head out with Seth.'
'I'm on my way Sam.'
Yup life isn't fair.
Kira's POV
Turn out that my mother had left me a will. I have the deed to a house in La Push, Washington. Wow it's almost like my mother knew my plan. If she did then she knew what I had become. She also left me 2 hundred thousand dollars which her and my dad left before they died. No one had claimed it since all my relatives were dead and I was supposed to be dead too. Oh well. So now I'm on a plane waiting for it to land and then drive to La Push.
2 hours later
Finally!! I swear if I had to spend another minute on that plain I was going to kill the old lady sitting next to me. The only that kept me insane is that I had planned in my head so many ways to kill her, fortunate for her I didn't act on my ideas. Okay so why am I on a regular plane and not some fancy first class simple, the less attention I attract the better. Nothing
says, "Hey look at me!" than a 16 year old girl who looks innocent than waving a wad of cash and heading to a small almost non existent town. So I had to suck it up and just smile like the 'good little angel' that I am. Not! Finally I was out of the airport and driving to La Push. I had to ask for direction from some cop, Chief Swan, not fun at all. I found the house and it was good enough for me. It'll need a new paint job both inside and out and a lot of cleaning. I wonder how long it was since my mom has been here. I remember coming once in a while but it has got to be more than 11 years. 11 years of dust, gross. I am a neat freak when it comes to where I am staying. If it's someone else's place then I don't give a damn. The only time when I am messy is when I get paid to be messy. Okay so it's 9 in the morning better get started. 8 hours later and the place was good as new, well I still needed to paint it but that could wait till tomorrow. I took a hot shower letting the water run down my body. My muscles never relaxed I'm always on guard therefore tense muscles but you can't tell by looking. I put on black cargo pants and a black short sleeve under armour shirt. I finished dressing when someone conviently knocked on the door. I grabbed my knives and stashed them in my many pockets. I had a small caliber gun strapped to my leg and another in the drawer of the table by the door. I then answered it. I expected some hit man but I got an old man in a wheel chair and a tall big teenager. Both had russet color complexion and the teenager had long black hair whilst the old man had black and grey. Both of their hairs were tied at the nape.
"Hi! I'm Billy Black you're neighbor. This is my son Jacob." They extended their hands for a shake and I shook their hands with a firm grip. It would be better if I get them inside where I have all my weapons rather than out here where they could get me. I mean you never know with Dante's hitmen that Billy could suddenly just jump and try to kill me. "I'm Kira. Would you like to come inside?" My voice had no emotion and I noticed that they both winced at my montone voice. They entered my house and Jacob sat on the couch and Billy stayed in his wheelchair. I sat on a chair facing the both of them.
"So what brings you to La Push?" Billy asked me.
"My mom left me this house after she died." I told them.
"Wait your Terry's daughter Kira?" Billy asked his eyes widening in astonishment. His voice held suprise and curiosity.
"How do you know my mother?" I asked him wearily.
"Sweetie I remember you. My wife, bless her soul, would treat her like our own daughter. Then she had you. Hell she gave birth to you in our kitchen! You and Jake were so small! You two were best friends even though the both of you had 'cooties'. I heard what happened to your parents. I'm so sorry Kira. Where have you been? Everyone thought that you were dead." He asked. Damnit not good!
"Um I don't like talking about it." I told them making my voice sound sad and broken. Which for me is a lot harder than it sounds.
"Oh sweetie I'm sorry I shouldn't have asked." Billy then looked around. "This place looks nice! Did you clean it?"
"Yes. It was really messy."
"You should have asked for help. I know Jake can help you!"
"No that's okay. I can finish it on my own." I told him praying that the old man wasn't stubborn. Luck wasn't on my side.
"No that's alright. What do you need to do?" Jacob asked talking for the first time. I knew they weren't going to give up.
"I just need to paint the inside of the house and the outside."
"No problem. I'll get the guys and we can finish it in no time."
"You don't have to. I'm sure they're busy."
"Nah! All of them are jst laying around doing nothing. So does tomorrow sound good?"
Damn these people!! They're not normal! People tend to stay away from me! Something about a dark cloud hanging over my head or some shit like that. "Yes that sounds alright." I told them hoping they get the message to LEAVE!!
"Have you eaten Kira?" Billy asked all of a sudden.
"No." I answered truthfully.
"Then come have dinner with us. We can't cook but we all go to Emily's house. She makes the best food in town."
"That's okay. I don't want to intrude."
"Emily doesn't mind she loves to cook and she believes in the saying ,'the more the merrier'!" Jacob said.
Do I have a sign on my head saying that I need to be fed like an orphan?! I knew they were once again not going to give up. I loathe this town already. "Alright if you're sure she doesn't mind."
"Great let's head over there now." Billy started wheeling himself out and Jacob headed towards the door.
"We'll take you and bring you back alright." Jacob said.
"Alright Jacob."
"Call me Jake everybody does."
"Okay." In my various pockets I had gernades and basically anything needed in case I was attacked. I left the house and locked the door. I saw an old volkswagon parked in my front yard.
"Hey Kira come on!"
I ran to the car and got in the passagener side. Billy was in the back seat and Jacob was in the driver seat. He pulled out and headed towards Emily's house. I payed really close attention to what he did and where he went. I memorized my surroundings which was trees, trees, and more trees. Great. I thought sarcastically. I listened incase Billy did try something. Pretty soon we pulled up to a house. Jacob got out and helped his dad out of the car. I got out and I could already hear the loud voices that seemed like they were booming out of the house. There are a lot of people in there. Not good. Jacob towered over me. It was then that I realized that he was a little over six feet which made my average 5'2 seem puny.
"Come on Shorty." Jacob said already walking toward the door while pushing Billy up a ramp.
I grimaced at the nickname he gave me. I walked behind him. He opened the door and if I was any regular person I would have gasped and gaped. But I didn't because I wasn't a regular person. There wer a bunch of shirtless guys in the living room. All of them over six feet. There must be something in the water. They were all conversing and laughing with one another.
"Hey Jake! You made it!" Billy wheeled himself to an older looking women and started talking to her. Jacob was pulled into a headlock by another big guy. They were buff. I wondered i I would be able to take them all on.
"Hey Jake who's the girl?" The one who headlocked him ask.
"Oh yeah. Hey everybody!" Everyone stopped what they were doing and turned to where Jacob and I stood. "This is Kira my new neighbor. Kira that's Embry." He pointed to the guy who put him in a headlock, "Quil, Jared, his girlfriend Kim, Collin, Seth, Brady, Leah, Sam, his wife Emily, and Sue." There were a chorus hellos and hi's and other greetings. I noticed that Emily had horrible scars running across one side of her face but I didn't stare. "Hey has anyone seen Paul?" Jacob asked.
"He's right behind you." A voice said behind us. I faked being suprised since I had sensed him long ago.
"Okay Paul this is Kira. Kira this is Paul." Paul extended his hand to shake. I shook his hand and it was hot like Jacob's. I looked up and my violet eyes met his dark brown ones. Then something happened.
Paul's POV
I knew I was late but I had to go home and shower first. I opened it and walked into the empty house and headed for the shower. I had been living on my own for a while. My dad left when I was young and my mom left when I was fifteen. When I finished I put on a some cut off jeans and didn't even bother with a shirt. I would only rip it if I needed to phase. I ran towards Emily's house and saw Jake's rabbit in the driveway. I opened the door and I saw a girl standing next to Jake. He was introducing her to everyone. She had long straight black hair that went to her waist. She was short but then everyone was short compared to us. She was wearing all black. 'Is she a goth?' I heard Jake ask for me so I answered.
"He's right behind you." The girl jumped suprised by my voice and turned around. Jake introduced us and Kira looked up and our eyes met. I stared into her violet eyes. They were alive but they held no emotion. It's like she was looking into my soul. Everything changed. We were no longer at Emily's we weren't anywhere. It was just Kira and I. I wanted to hold her, protect her, make her happy, and love her. I existed for her and only her. 'Oh shit. I think I just imprinted.' I started to shake. I could hurt her. Kira, my soul mate, could get hurt and I would be the cause of it. She turned and I nearly whimpered.
"Paul can I talk to you?" Sam asked.
I nodded not trusting my voice and followed Sam into the kitchen.
"What happened back there?"
"Sam I think I--I t-think I--"
"Did you imprint on Kira?"
I nodded again not trusting my voice. "Sam what do I do?"
"What do you mean you do? You talk to her and get to know her. Wait a couple of days and then ask her out."
"But what if I mess up? What if she doesn't like me?"
"Paul she's your imprint. She has to like you. Now stop worrying and lets go back with the others." I followed Sam out of the kitchen. Everyone was talking but I noticed that everyone kept shifting their gaze from me to Kira. They know that I imprinted. I looked for her and spotted her sitting on one end of a couch away from everyone. My heart sped up as I walked towards her. I sat down next to her.
"Hi." I said nervously
"Hello." She said in a monotone voice. I took a good look at her. She had a middle complexion not dark and not pale. Violet eyes and full pink lips. She was wearing a short sleeve under armour and cargo pants. She was so beautiful.
"It's not polite to stare Paul."
I hid the shiver that wanted to rake through my body. The way she said my name made me want to hear her say it again. "Sorry. So um where are you from?" I asked hoping to find out about her more.
"Florida."
I was about to ask about her more but Emily called out that dinner was ready. Everyone jumped up at the sound of Emily's cooking. Well almost everyone Kira just waited until everyone went in and calmy stood up and walked into the kitchen. I pulled a chair out and motioned for her to sit. I gave her a small smile and watched as she sat down with a weary expression. I sat down next to her. Emily gave her a plate with a little bit of everything. Apparently Emily thought a head way to go Emily.
"So Kira where are your parents?" Seth asked Kira.
"They're dead." She answered without even hesistating.
"I'm sorry but I know what that's like. Is that why you moved here?" Seth asked again. I noticed that Leah was looking at Kira not with a hated look but sympathy and understanding.
"No they've been dead for 11 years." She said looking at Seth with a blank look and her emotionless eyes.
"So um why did you move here?" Quil asked.
This time Kira did hesistate. "I don't like talking about it."
"Oh sorry I'm so sorry. Sorry for your loss." Quil said looking away embarrassed.
"It's alright. There's no point mourning over the dead." She said with that same blank look. That seemed to get Seth mad. Sue looked upset and so did Leah.
"What so are you some emotionless bitch that doesn't feel anything? Don't you miss them? Did you even love them?" Seth asked angrily. I got up ready to defend Kira when she spoke.
Kira's POV
This boy, Paul, made me feel. This was unacceptable! I am the greates assassin I am not supposed to feel! Kim the girl who's boyfriend was Jared came up to me.
"Sorry about Paul. He's a really nice guy once you get to know him better." She told me happily. Everyone's mood seemed to have lifted and if anything they glowed with happiness. From what I have no idea. My gut tells me that I don't want to know. If there's anything I learned from my profession trust your gut instinct. She looked at me expecting an answer but I wasn't going to give her one. Why? Because there was no answer. She left and returned to her boyfriend. I sat on a couch as far away as everyone as possible. I saw Paul heading towards me. He looked happy and nervous. Please tell me that he does not like me. Please! He sat next to me and said hi. I replied back without looking at him. It was quiet between us and I was really starting to dislike the way he was staring at me.
"It's not polite to stare Paul." I told him without looking at him. I noticed that he tried to hide a shiver.
"Sorry. So um where are you from?" He asked eagerly.
"Florida." I was going to be giving Paul as little as information as possible. It looked like he wanted to say something else but Emily called out that the food was ready. They all jumped up and headed for the kitchen. Everyone except for Paul and I he waited for me. I waited for everyone to leave before I got up and went to the kitchen. Paul lead me to the kitchen and held a seat open for me. I sat down and gave him a weary look but all he did was smile. He sat down next to me and Emily gave me a plate with a little bit of everything. All the guys dug into the food like if they hadn't eaten for days. Seth started talking.
"So Kira where are your parents?" Seth asked me.
"They're dead." I replied without hesitating
"I'm sorry but I know what that's like. Is that why you moved here?" Seems like Seth lost someone maybe his father. Sue was his mother and Leah was his sister.
"No they've been dead for 11 years." I answered again.
"So um why did you move here?" This time Quil asked me.
I hesistated before answering, "I don't like talking about it."
"Oh sorry I'm so sorry. Sorry for your loss." Quil looked away with embarrassment.
"It's alright. There's no point mourning over the dead." I said. That seemed to upset Leah and Sue. But Seth he was a whole different story. He got mad and yelled at me, "What so are you some emotionless bitch that doesn't feel anything? Don't you miss them? Did you even love them?"
I nearly laughed. What the hell was wrong with me?! I do not laugh. Paul stood up and didn't look to happy. Before anything could happen I spoke, "Am I an emotionless bitch? According to some yes. Do I feel anything? No emotions make you weak. Do I miss them? At times I do. Did I love them? Of course. But there is something you should know. Mourning over the dead doesn't help. It doesn't magically bring them back from the grave. I learned that the hard way." I told Seth looking straight at him in the eye. He looked at me and sat down defeated. I stood up and thanked Emily for the meal complimenting her on her skill. I turned to leave when Leah spoke.
"How did they die?" She asked me.
"Long story short my father was tortured, beaten, and then murdered. My mother was the same except that the ones that killed her raped her too." I said without looking back. "Jacob, Mr. Black I'll walk home. Thank you for your invitation. Mrs. Uley , Mr. Uley thank you for your hospitality." I explained everythin in my usual voice, monotone, and I walked away.
