Sorry its took so long for me to update! :)

I've been really busy with school and all that lately…and friend drama…so yeah…busyness :D

BUUUUUUUT it's all over now and I'm FINALLY back xD

Sorry for the long wait again…

DISCLAIMER you all know I don't own anyone apart from the peeps you don't already know :) If I was Stephanie Meyer I don't think I'd be on this somehow :D

Enjooooooooooooooooy…..

He walked up to me to see if i was okay but i just attached myself too him. I wrapped my arms around his neck and held on as tightly as i could. I was still absolutely terrified. I knew that i was safe but i couldn't help it. It's not every day you see something like that.

"Are you okay?" He asked me.

I nodded against his shoulder and he wrapped his arms around me soothingly.

"Your Lakota right? Jareds...friend?" He asked me warily.

"Were not friends" I muttered "More like ex friends i guess"

He laughed. "We met before on the beach. I'm Seth Clearwater"

I nodded and held myself tighter too him. To say i was scared is an understatement. I'm terrified!

"I remember you" I told him. "Your sisters Leah right?"

"Yeah that's right. She's my...non-bitchy big sister" He joked.

I laughed humourlessly and kept my arms around his neck. The heat that was radiating off him was really calming. It was helping me too forget what had just happened but i didn't want to forget. I want to know what happened.

"Seth?"

"Yeah?"

"What happened to Embry?" I asked him.

He froze for a second and his grip loosened slightly. I pulled my head back to look at him but he just stared ahead into the forest. He looked down at me and sighed.

"I'm not meant to be the one to tell you" He stated.

"Then who is?" I asked.

"Your imprint" He blurted out before he could stop himself.

"What's an imprint?"

He groaned and sat me down gently on the forest floor. He sat down opposite me and just stared at me. I looked down at the forest floor and tried to calm myself down. I may have laughed at Seth but i'm still shaken up inside. I closed my eyes and placed my hand in my lap before i hurt it even more. My head was spinning because i still can't get around the fact that Embry turned into a wolf. He actually turned into a wolf. A wolf! He's not human. Oh my God. He's not human. What is he? A werewolf? He must be. Oh my God. What's going on here?

Seth sighed and broke me out of my thought process. I looked up at him and found him still looking at me.

"I'll tell you about what we are but first we've gotta get you to a hospital" He promised.

"Can you tell me on the way?"

"I'll tell you on the way" He compromised.

"Good. Now let's go because it's getting cold"

I reached for Seth's hand because it was dark and i had no idea where i was going. It gave me some sort of comfort too because i'm still shaken up. He took it and guided me through the forest. We walked in silence, Seth occasionally asking me if i was alright. I tripped a few times but Seth always caught me. I don't know how he did it. It's pitch black out and being in the forest makes it even darker than it already is. I don't know what it is about Seth but i feel as though i can trust him already. He just seems like the kind of person who couldn't hurt a fly and i felt really safe with him. I like him. I honestly think that we could be good friends if he gave us a chance. It took us half an hour to get out of the forest and back to the beach. He kept hold of my hand and led me toward the little car park thing the beach had.

"Did you bring your car?" He asked me,

"No. I stayed at Carmels last night so she drove us both down" I explained.

"We're gonna have to walk to my house" He told me. "My cars in the drive"

"How fars your house because i'm really tired"

"About a 15 minute walk away"

I groaned and looked up at him. "We should get going then"

"I can carry you if you're tired" He offered.

"I'm too heavy for you" I objected.

"No you're not. Don't worry" He looked down at me. "Am i carrying you or not?"

"Are you sure i'm not gonna break your arms or anything?"

"I'm certain" He grinned at me and picked me up bridal style. "See. You're not heavy at all"

I smiled at him and rested my head against his shoulder. "How old are you Seth?" I asked him.

He raised his eyebrow at me and smiled. "I'm 17 why?"

"Just wondering. What about everyone else?" I asked curiously.

"Well Collin and Brady are the same age as me. Jacob, Embry, Quil and Jared are 18. Paul, Sam and Leah are all 19. Me, Collin, Brady, Jacob, Quil, Embry and Jared are all in our senior year at LaPush High" He explained. He glanced across at me and smiled. "What about you?"

"I'm 17, 18 in March. I'm in my senior year at Forks High and i live on the outskirts of forks with my dad" I told him.

He nodded and carried on walking. I closed my eyes and thought about how much my life has changed over the last few hours. This morning i was the normal me. The one who was up for anything and would always be the life and soul of the party. But now i'm terrified of the world. There's so many things that i thought never existed that do. It's horrible to thing about and i really didn't wanna know what else is out there because it's scary. Every human thinks that we are the most powerful, influential things on the planet but from what I've seen today, i now know the truth. There are things out there that can't be explained but there's always someone that can explain them. Seth is the person who's going to explain it all too me. I know that Embry can but he's not going to talk to me now is he? That thought suddenly made me feel really depressed. I want Embry to talk to me so badly and i don't even know why. How can i be so attached to him when i met him today? It makes no sense at all.

Seth gently put me down on my feet and put a hand on my back. I smiled up at him as he led me to his car. It wasn't anything amazing but it just seemed special. Seth helped me into the car and got in the driver's side.

"It's not much but i built it myself with my dad before he died so i can't sell it or anything" He muttered.

"It's fine" I reassured him. "I was actually admiring it. It gives off a vibe"

He grinned as he backed out of the drive. He turned the car around and started to drive towards the hospital.

"You wanna know about us?" Seth asked me.

"Yeah"

He kept his eyes on the road as he began to speak. "I am gonna tell you what we are but i'm not gonna go into much detail. You will be freaked out but i promise you none of us want to hurt you" He warned me.

"Just get on with it please Seth" I said impatiently.

"Okay so when we reach a certain age we become...moody almost. Anything can set off our anger but it's controlling it that's the hard part. Our bodies go through a massive change. We grow taller; we get muscles...everything about us just gets bigger! Our temperature goes up a lot and that's when we know something's gonna happen. With me, it happened after my dad died. I was so angry that someone out there let him die that it…changed me. A lot. I got so mad that I just lashed out and changed into…into a wolf" He paused and glanced over at me to see my reaction. I kept a straight face and held my hand to my body to try and stop the pain. He took a deep breath and carried on speaking. "Embry lost control in the woods. It doesn't normally happen but he's…emotional at the minute. He's the laidback one of the group but I'm guessing you wouldn't think that huh?"

I laughed humourlessly and looked at over at him. "Why's he so emotional?" I asked "He seemed fine on the beach before. Laughing and joking with you guys and then he saw me and it's like he suddenly lost it. I don't understand it. Then he was acting all friendly with me and all that when we were on the cliff. I don't get it Seth. Is he bipolar?"

"He's not bipolar no. Our emotions get harder to control when we phase and they can change really quickly. He couldn't control it" He explained.

"But why couldn't he control it? It's not as if anything actually happened for him to go schizo on me"

Seth kept his eyes on the road and hesitated "It's not my place to tell you"

"Yeah well no-one else is gonna so you might as well go ahead" I told him.

"Embry might wanna be the one to tell you though. It's nothing to do with me Lakota. Leave it for Em alright?" He reasoned.

I shook my head "No. I wanna know what's going on Seth. It's not like I'm gonna tell anybody. They'd lock me up" I groaned and turned in my seat so I was facing him "All I wanna know is why I got him mad when I didn't even speak to him"

Seth sighed and looked over at me "I'll carry on from where I left off alright? I will get to why Em got worked up"

I nodded "Fine. But can you hurry up and get to the hospital. I'm in agony here"

"Okay. So the first night we phase the alpha goes through everything with us. What we are, why we become what we are, our job and imprinting. The alpha has imprinted so we know the feeling well. When you first see this girl you get the urge to...protect her. Nothing else just to protect her. You have to make eye contact to actually imprint though. When your eyes meet for the first time...it's magical. You know straight away that you're going to be whatever she wants you be. A friend, a shoulder to cry on, a lover whatever she wants you to be, you'll be it. This one girl is what holds you down to the Earth. Not gravity, her. All the ties that you had with the world snap and it's like a steel chain connects you to her. It's impossible to resist but yet he's managing it after one day." He told me all this with such emotion in his voice that it bought tears to my eyes.

"Have you imprinted?" I whispered.

He shook his head and sighed. "You'd know if i had"

I rubbed his arm soothingly. "You mentioned that Embry had an imprint in the woods. Who is it?"

He looked at me and smiled. "Haven't you worked it out?"

My eyebrows furrowed and i shook my head.

"Think about when you first met him this morning" Seth suggested.

I thought back. When we first made eye contact he looked like a blind man seeing the sun for the first time. He looked at me as if i was some sort of goddess. In the forest he was worried about my safety and he was so gentle with my hand and with me. That's when it clicked. Everything suddenly made sense and I gasped and looked at Seth.

"He imprinted on me?" I asked my voice full of shock.

Seth nodded and pulled up in front of the hospital. "You're lucky to get Embry" He told me. "He's a nice guy i just don't think he was expecting to imprint. He has a girlfriend and he's not the type to suddenly break up with them"

"I don't expect him too. I don't want a relationship with him. I barely know him and he obviously hates me. It's just a shock to know were meant to be together but he's not my soul mate. He can't be. Were too different"

Seth smiled and got out the car. I opened the door and shook my head. This is all unreal. How the hell are we meant to be? None of it makes sense. I got out the car and walked over to Seth who was leaning against the hood of the car.

"I know it doesn't seem like it but you two are similar. If you got to know each other you'd see that" He told me.

"Yeah but it's not gonna happen so let's be realistic" I grinned at him and started walking towards the hospital. I heard him push himself off the car and jog to catch up with me. I carried on walking and just looked towards the hospital entrance. Geez it looks really warm. I sped up and grabbed hold of Seths arm with my good hand to try and get there quicker. He kept up with me easily but got fed up with me and picked me up to get me there quicker. I laughed and threw my head back. This is a change from the throbbing pain in my hand. My giggles didn't subside until we were indoors and by then even Seth was laughing. The receptionist gave us a weird look so Seth put me down and acted casual.

"Can I see Dr Cullen please?" He asked the receptionist, giving her a dazzling smile.

Her eyes looked as if they glazed over and she looked completely dazed. "Erm...yeah sure. He should be in his office. You can go up"

"Thanks" Seth grinned again and I swear she looked as if she was going to faint. I held back a laugh and followed Seth through the double doors. This made me go quiet. I hate hospitals. I hate the fact that people come here when they're in so much pain and it's the unhappiest times of their lives. People come in here to get fixed but sometimes they don't get fixed. It's horrible to think about. When I was here a few years ago because I'd been in an accident, I couldn't get the thought that somebody has probably died in the very bed that I was lay in. That's when I refused to stay in the hospital any longer. I made my mom take me home and I've never set foot in a hospital since…apart from now.

I shrank closer to Seth and walked to this Drs office. I frowned and stepped back. I really don't wanna meet this doctor. I mean why would Seth ask for a specific doctor? This has gotta be another blow to me.

The door opened and Seth walked inside. I hesitated but I followed him through and looked round cautiously. It was incredibly neat. Everything was in place and it looked professional somehow. I turned round and took in everything. The walls were pure white and there was hardly anything on the walls. There was a clock opposite the desk and he had his certificates and stuff on one wall. Seth was stood by the desk talking to someone but I wasn't really listening to him. It doesn't feel like I'm in a doctor's office. It just feels normal somehow.

"Miss Smith?" An unfamiliar voice said.

I turned round "Yeah?"

A blonde man walked over to me and my jaw dropped. Geez. This man is drop dead gorgeous. I've gotta be imagining things. Nobody can be as hot as this.

"I'm Doctor Cullen" He told me. "Seth's just informed me on what happened so we needn't go into any more detail. You've hurt your hand is that correct?"

I nodded and held my hand out for him to look at. He took it in gently and I recoiled. His hand is freezing! And I mean really cold. What's wrong with him?

"Your freezing" I told him.

"Yes. I'm afraid I've always had a low body temperature" He said politely. "You'll get used to it. Most patients say that it has a calming effect on them"

"Right. But your hand is like minus seven degrees or something. It's not normal. Are you like Seth?" I asked.

Dr Cullen looked at Seth and he nodded in approval. He sat me down in the chair and knelt down next to me. "I'm afraid I'm not like Seth. Me and my family are the opposite actually" He paused and looked at me to see if I was alright. I just looked at him and he got the hint to carry on. "Us and the werewolves are mortal enemies but we've developed a bond between us. You see. Me and family are vampires"

My mouth fell open and I just stared at him. "You're kidding me right? I mean none of this can be real. It's impossible"

"You saw for yourself today that the impossible is possible. Me and my family are part of the supernatural world you've been thrown into. Vampires are as real as the wolves are. You just need to realise that were all in this together. We didn't choose this. Neither did you. So please get that scared look off your face. We're not here to hurt you" Dr Cullen said reassuringly.

I looked at Seth and shook my head in disbelief "Tell me it's not true" I begged "Please Seth"

He frowned and walked over to us. He put his hand on my shoulder and sighed. "It's all true"

Well that's made my day even better. Great.
