Kim's point of view: Waiting/ chapter 9
Waiting is the worst thing ever. I don't know how people could ever be patient. Well actually most people didn't have a werewolf boyfriend who was out battling newborn vampires with other vampires. I wasn't just worried for Jared but I was worried for Leah, Paul and Seth, and the rest of the pack. I wasn't the only one either. I was at Emily's small house with Emily, Sue, and Claire. Billy Black lured Charlie Swan away to a fishing trip. The boys were with us right now but they would be gone in an hour to fight.
Jake was out with Bella right now and probably Edward was there hovering over Bella. Seth would trade off with him in an hour. Quill was playing with Claire (who is six) and Emily was sitting near Sam holding his hand. Leah just went and sat outside with Sue, Sam just looked down looking sick. He never wanted to hurt Leah or Emily or their relationship but it was too late.
I sat in Jared's lap and he just held me. We didn't speak a word. Occasionally Jared and Paul would talk to each other and try to calm me down which really did help.
"We have to go now. Collin and Brady stay here and Seth when Edward says it's clear you come back." Sam said with the alpha tone in his voice. He then kissed Emily and gave her one last long glance before walking out the door.
Leah and Seth hugged Sue before running out the door. Quill hugged little Claire and gave her hand to Sue. Claire was in a bad mood all day so when he pulled away she lost it. She was crying and kept trying to wrap herself around his leg. Sue and Emily took her upstairs to try to calm her down. Quill just stood there looking miserable.
Embry put a reassuring had on his shoulder and said she would be okay. He led his best friend out the door. Collin and Brady went outside and phased to keep posted on the soon to be fight and protect us in case something went wrong. That left Paul, Jared and I alone.
I didn't even realize I was crying till Jared brushed a tear off my face gently. I wiped off the tears that kept coming frustrated.
"Sorry I'm okay. I know you are going to be okay. Sorry I don't have a reason to be crying." I said laughing weakly.
"No you don't have a reason because I'm coming back. I will get to hold you again. So don't cry or worry just pretend like I'm going on a regular patrol. I promised you I would come back and I keep my promises." Jared said taking me into his arms and kissing me gently. He then heard a howl and pulled back.
"It's about to start. We have to go." Jared said pulling away from me which stretched the bond.
"Don't worry Kim I won't let anything happen to him. He will come back and you guys can continue your mushy love thing." Paul smiled. It wasn't the most perfect reassurance but I knew Paul was trying and he meant every word.
I spontaneously hugged him. Paul and Jared were shocked. Paul returned the friendly hug though which was also unexpected. I then pulled back.
"Take care of you brother." I said to Paul. He looked at me sincerely then nodded. Jared and Paul left through the door.
Two seconds later Jared rushed in and kissed me one more time roughly but romantically. He then pulled away smiling and left.
I went upstairs trying not to cry and found Sue and Emily with Claire. Claire almost asleep. SO I sat down next to her and told her stories of a princess and the prince who could turn into a huge wolf. Emily and Sue smiled at that and soon Claire fell asleep and curled into me. I was also tired and felt sleep drifting over me. Soon it won and I fell asleep.
_
I was woken up hours later. I slowly opened my eyes and saw Jared's bog brown eyes. I almost jumped up and hugged him but he stopped me pointing to Claire who was still asleep next to me. Jared helped me out of the bed and almost as if she sensed it she popped up. Her eyes saw Quill standing in the door way. She bolted out of bed and flung herself into him. He picked her up and gave her a high five.
"Hey did someone miss me?" He smiled even though he looked completely exhausted. She giggled and nodded.
"See you guys tomorrow. Thanks for calming her down Kim." He smiled.
"No problem. It was mostly Emily and Sue though." I smiled figuring that Emily or Sue told him I calmed her down even though they did more work than I did. I never really understood how Quill could imprint on someone so young but I understood that he was like a brother to her now but it would change when she got older.
Jared led me out of the house and I could tell that he was exhausted but I also knew something else was wrong.
"Jared did something happen? Is everyone okay?" I asked worried.
"No, everything is not okay. Seth fought a vampire by his own but he is okay because Bella cut herself to create a distraction. These royal vampire leeches came and we are worried that they saw us or wanted the Cullen's to die. Leah tried to take down a vampire by herself and Jake tried to help her but it broke every bone on the left side of his body.'
' Carlisle Cullen had to come over and rebreak every bone on that side of his body. His body is burning off the morphine too quickly. Sam is worried about what made Leah think she could take one on by herself and they got in a fight. Seth is worried she tried to kill herself. Leah keeps apologizing to Jake but won't tell us anything. Sue is worried about Leah, Billy is beyond worried about Jake, who cant phase for a long time. All of this happened because of Bella. Oh and moments before the battle she kissed Jake but told him she is engaged to Edward. So the treaty is about to be broken as soon as she comes back as a vampire. And she had the nerve to check on Jake. And we were all being there for Jake which I would never not do but it kept me away from you longer!" He said shaking badly.
"Jared it's okay! Everything is going to be okay! The pack will help Jake heal, we will help him get over Bella! Those royal vampires are the Cullen's problem right now! If they saw you, you would know. They would have said or done something. Leah is going to be okay! She is so strong, I wish I was as strong as her! She will tell someone soon! You cant force her to tell any of you. Just give her some time and space. Don't feel guilty about not coming back right away! The main thing is you came back to me safe! You kept your promise!" I exclaimed cupping his face.
He stared deeply into my eyes. I felt like our souls were communicating. His body slowly stopped shaking and his breathing slowed. He slowly ran his fingers through my hair. Our lips met and electricity flew through us. His tongue traced the bottom of my lips asking for permission. I parted my lips and our tongues dance together.
He wrapped he tightly in his arms and I wound my fingers through his hair, pulling him closer to me. Our bodies were pressed firmly together. I stood on the tip of my toes and he leaned down so our lips we closer together. The kiss deepened and we were both moaning but neither of us cared we were running out of air.
Jared then pulled away leaving me whimpering. He smirked playfully but I could see the lust in his dark eyes.
"I should get you home now." He breathed.
"My parents know about the battle. They think I am staying over Emily's house. Why don't you take me to your house?" I asked suggestively. Jared was amazing, he made me bold and he made me feel sexy and beautiful. I knew I loved him. I wanted this.
"Are you sure? We don't have to do anything you aren't ready for. You don't have to do anything to keep me, I am already yours. It doesn't change the way I feel about you, I want you to be ready." Jared said softly.
"I am sure about you. I want this, I want you. I want us to have that moment." I said more shyly.
"Okay, how about we go to my house and take this one step at a time? Let's just see what happens, let's not force it." Jared ssaid cupping my face. I nodded and he took my hand and led me through the forest.
I knew I loved him and I wanted to show him. I knew I was ready for this. I only hoped it would be what I expected it to be. one thing I was assure of was I loved him and I knew he loved me. Nothing would change that.
