Paul sat down in the chair at the table skeptically like the chair had been poisoned and looked across the table at Dakota who was stuffing her face with the last remaining pieces of bacon on her plate. Emily hadn't cooked anything other than meats and pultry this morning, the counter of food consisting of bacon, sausage, steak, and eggs. this was unusual but by the look of D it probably didn't bug her.

Paul was feeling slightly light headed but if he were a normal human he'd probably be in a coma. This was strangely out of the ordinary for a werewolf to feel sick or nausiated. Paul dismissed it taking the plate he just realised Emily was holding out to him. He nodded as a thank you and began to take a few inhales of the food while watching his beautiful imprint suck in the food on her plate like a vaccum. Watching Dakota was hipnotizing to him and when a werewolf starts to eat slowly it deffinitaly doesn't go unnoticed by anyone.

"What's the matter, Paul?" Emily addressed him from the other end of the kitchen swiping her forhead to eliminate the sweat beads beeming from her. Paul heard the little bit of miosture hit the ground and there was a sudden change in Dakota's eyes. Something Paul couldn't put his finger on but whatever it was he certainly didn't like or approve of it. No normal human would have been able to tell the difference, hell a werewolf or vamp couldn't either, but this was his imprint and he'd be damned if he didn't notice every little change in her.

Dakota licked her lips clean from inhaling every tiny bit of meat that suckled her plate and noticed the new presence beside her, but soon after something different had her attention. Beads of water splashed the surface of the kitchen floor. The sound was loud but the smell of the water hit her harder than anything else in the kitchen. The smell was desired so much by every fiber in her and she could feel herself go stiff when the back of her throat burned and she felt weak as the smell faded away.

Soon enough more of the lucious water hit the floor and Dakota's nostrals were satisfied again with the luxurious smell of the water. She took in a deep breat and selfishly wiffed the air into her nose, holding her breat to keep the smell from escaping. she let the breath out when a whole new sensation hit her and she felt like she couldn't stop from taking it into her system, if only she could manage. Dakota felt if only she could absorb what was just out of her reach she could feel so much better and powerful; it was on the edge of her figer tips. She almost had it and...

"What are you doing?" Dakota asked while Sam had gotten a hold of her and dragged her into the guest room where her and Sammy slept.

"You've had enough to eat," Sam stated softly but with enough control to make her calm. Once he'd closed the door that separated them both from everyone else in the house Sam began to talk. "What did you feel?"

"What?" Dakota was beyoned confused.

"What did you feel out in the kitchen just a few minutes ago?" Sam demanded. Dakota had no idea why Sam was asking such strage questions. "What were you trying so hard to get at?"

"I don't know," Was her answer to all the caous. "I just felt like there was so much power sitting right in front of me, but i couldn't reach it."

"Don't." Sam commanded. "Next time you feel it push it away and don't." Dakota would have protested but she'd heard the door shut and hung her head. If this hadn't been the strangest day...

...***...

Dakota had the whole mishap on her mind for the rest of the day; what in Emily's kitchen that she couldn't see had her almost at a peak of power and control? What felt so good that it was almost impossible for her to resist? Why was it such a bad thing according to Sam?

On their way to the gym Sammy and Dakota stopped at the diner to meat up with Paul, Jared, and Quil just for some hanging time to get to know each other well. When Sammy pulled into the parking lot she unlocked the doors for D and they both made there way in and as usual many of the men stared. Sammy smiled as she waled by but D didn't pay anymind to them. Though she couldn't see them, she could feel multipul pares of eyes burning into her skin.

Once at the table they both stopped and greeted the three huge men with hugs and 'hello's'. D sat down acorss from Jared and Paul while Sammy sat down across from Quil, him gawking at her like usual. After everyone had their drinks ordered than the conversation started.

"Where are you guys going after this?" Jared asked refuring to there strage wordrobe consisting of sweats, and tank tops.

"The gym." Sammy answered pointedly.

"You guys are going to Forks?" Quil sounded worried. "Alone?"

"Yeah," Sammy said slowly.

"Yeah, I don't think so." Paul bluntly put himself into the conversation.

"We're not babies, guys; we can handle ourselves." Dakota retorted.

"I still don't like the idea." Paul responded shaking his head.

"Well, who asked you?" Dakota crossed her arms over her chest hearing snickers from Jared and Quil.

"No one." He answered back just as aciddic.

"Than shut up." That was the end of that conversation. Paul shut his mouth making a croockedly unapproving face and staring down at his menu when drinks were brought back. Dakota leaned over and whispered something to Sammy that even Paul werewolf hearing couldn't catch, and Sammy took a look at the menu for her telling her what everything was and what it had in it. Paul and the others soon understood and sat back relooking over the menu. When everyone sat their menu's down the waitress took note and walked over to their table once again.

"What can I get you all today?" She was chucky and deffinitally native, and the smile she gave was too sweet to swallow.

Everyone gave their orders and D was last. "Can I get two of the steak and bacon platers?"

"Two?" The waitress asked in disbeliefe.

"Yeah," Dakota retorded... Yeah so she ate a lot. So?

"Okay," The waitress collected the menu's and walked into the back.

"You're getting two?" Quil asked just as surprised as the waitress. "I can barely finish one and that's saying something."

"I bet ten she won't eat the whole thing, Sam" Sammy cocked her eye brow and shook her head.

"You're on bro." Sammy and Jared shook on it and Dakota looked at Sammy a knowing look on her face...

... *** ...

"What the F-"

"Don't even think about finishing that Quil!" Dakota ordered pointing her finger at him.

"She ate the whole damn thing!" Jared sat with wide eyes at the two empty plates that took up most of the table.

"Cough it up jeffro..." Sammy held out her hand and Jared slapped down a ten.

"You guys need to be more careful when you bet on me." Dakota said pointedly. "Are you gonna finish that?" She stole a piece of bacon from Paul's plate while he watched her quick hand shove it into her mouth before he could protest. He shrugged and went on with eating what was left on his plate.

"Wow..." Jared stated clearly in shock. "If that was anyone else Paul would have eaten their hand off." Dakota smiled while chewing the peice of bacon in her mouth.

"How'd you even know it was there." Quil wondered

"Easy," Sammy said. "She smelt it." Dakota nodded smiling around the swallow she'd just done.

Dakota sat back and her stomach rummbled.

"Holy crap! What the heck, you're still hungry?" Paul shouted in deep disbeliefe his imprint could eat more than he could and still be hungry.

"A little, maybe I should have gotten three." Dakota poked at her flat belly with a grimace.

"Well than order more. I'm paying and if you're still hungry than go for it." Paul's smile was obvious in his voice.

"You sure?"

"Yup."

"kay than."

"Oh! Can I order more?" Quil intruded.

"Hell no."

...***...

Dakota and Sammy soon set foot in the gym. Bodies were sweating, people panting, hearts racing, energy radiating off of people as though they had loads to spear. The air smelt like sweat and BO to Sammy and but Dakota paid no mind to it, though she could smell it way more than Sammy. Dakota lay her mat out on the clrear space on the floor and sat on it and began stretching along with Sammy. Dakota's head started to ache which was highly unusual for her to feel nausiated as much as she has in the past few days. Maybe it was what she ate?

Dakota finished her stretches quickly and started her normal routine that she normally did at the gym in Cali.

Towards the end of her routine she began to feel the feeling she had in Emily's kitchen earlier this morning. She tried fighting the feelings she was getting whenever she'd hear someone wipe their forehead or pant really hard, or when their heart would start racing faster. Dakota scratched the back of her neck a felt small bumps forming on the back of it. Her nose began to run when she smelt the sickness of rust and salt. Her nose was bleeding and she was feeling sick to her stomach. She felt awful, not just sick but tired and fatigue. She even felt bloted.

It's probably just my period. She thought hopping off the bike and calling Sammy's name since it was hard to find her way to her when her nose was filled with blood.

"Ye- Geez, your nose is bleeding." Sammy commented rushing Dakota to the gyms bathroom. Sammy leaned Dakota against the sink and took a few paper towels to stop the bleeding. "Did you hit it on something?" Sammy asked.

"No, it just happened out of no where." Dakota defended bending her head backwards.

"That's weird." Sammy said thinking for a minute.

"Yeah, I know right?" Dakota said pointedly.

"Do you wanna finish up or just leave?" Sammy asked leaning against the counter like Dakota.

"Um, I'll finish up I'm almost done anyway." Sammy nodded and began to walk out of the bathroom, D following behind throwing the paper towels in the trash.

"You look awful." Sammy pointed out looking closer at Dakota's face.

"Yeah, I think I just might be starting my period or something." Dakota didn't think anything of it.

"But you never looked this bad before; you look like you got hit by a truck, your cat just died, and your boyfriend broke up with you. You look misurable." Sammy sat down on the bike next to Dakota and turned it on begining to pettel.

"Thanks." Dakota retorded.

"Hm, maybe you are starting your period." Dakota laughed at that and continued, and as soon as Sammy stopped talking, Dakota felt a blissful sensation fill her body whenever she breathed in. Dakota didn't feel any eyes on her and closed her eyes somewho obsorbing all of the bliss she could when she felt someone fall a few feet away from her and someone gasp and call for help. Dakota stopped petteling along with Sammy and hopped off her bike.

"What just happened?" Dakota asked quietly next to Sammy.

"I think someone just died."
