"As we all know, we have two new members of our pack," Sam spoke, I rolled my eyes, "Matt Dawson, and Mackenzie-"
"ehm, Mack, Makers, Kenzie." I corrected, "but not my full name. Thank you."
Sam narrowed his eyes, "Anyway, we all need to keep surveillance. The Cullen's maybe gone-"
"Who?" I said, without thinking. Everyone stared at me. And I felt both Embry and Jacob tense on either side of me.
Sam narrowed his eyes again, "but the threat still continues. Especially since Matt turned." And with that, everyone went along with their business. Some departed to the ocean, others heated up hot dogs over the fire, and then there was us. Me, Jacob, and Embry sat there in awkward silence.
"Who are the Cullen's?" I asked when the silence became hard to take.
"Vampire's." Embry said, "And the girl Jacob's in love with used to date one, she's using him to make herself feel better."
Ouch.
"She is not using me." Jacob glared.
"Please, she has you wrapped around her pale ass finger."
"Embry you better watch-"
"And why should I watch what I do?" Embry stood, yelling, "Your hurting my best friend because you can't over Bella, and you know that she'll never fucking love you back! Why can't you get that through your thick ass skull!"
By this time, Jacob was shaking violently. I knew he was about to change, but I didn't move. "Jacob." I said softly, and to my surprise, he stopped shaking. He stared at me his eyes soft. "Have fun with Bella."
And with that, I stood up, wrapped my hoodie around my body tighter and started towards my house. I could hear several people calling my name for me to come back, but the voice that I wanted the most to hear, didn't say one word.
Ever since the bonfire, all I've done is think. Mostly about my family, and future. But I feel more… mature, I guess. I don't spaz out on my brother or dad. I listen to what my mom has to say, and I'm on speaking terms with Embry again. So, everything is back to normal… except that for the fact that if I'm not mentally or physically active, my thoughts automatically go to Jacob. And I hate it.
"Hand me a wrench." My dad spoke from underneath the '69. I took my allowance and bought one of those things that pops out dents, so the car is pretty much back to normal.
I got out of the passenger seat, handed him a wrench, and sat back down in the car. I continued wiring the car under the steering wheel. "I'm done." I called to my dad, and got out.
"Alright," he said, as he slide out, grease marks covered his forehead.
I laughed, and threw him a towel, "So I'm going to the movies with Em tonight." I told him as he wiped off the stubborn grease.
"What's going on between you and Embry?" he asked, his voice going into that fatherly tone.
"Me and Embry? Embry Call? My loser best friend?" I raised an eyebrow. He nodded, "Nothing Dad. Em is my best friend, nothing more." I shuttered at the thought of it.
He nodded, but I could still tell that "Papa Bear" was still in tact. "So… I'm gonna go get ready…" I shot out of the garage and into the house. I definitely didn't want to answer the questions that was going to come.
"Whoa, where's the fire?" Matt said, as I passed the living room. He was spread out on the couch and watching his favorite scary movie.
I sprinted back to the living room and poked my head in, "Papa bear's on the loose." I whispered, and then bolted up the stairs.
"Oh shit." he mumbled, and shot up after me.
We took refuge in my room, the only reason being it has a lock door with no spare key.
"What did you do?" Matt laughed, laying across my bed, as I shuffled through my drawers to find a nice shirt to wear.
"I told him I was going to the movies with Embry." I sighed, Matt busted out laughing.
"Well that was your first mistake."
"There is nothing going on between me and Embry!" I yelled, throwing the nearest thing I could find at him, which was a plastic snow globe from Hawaii.
"Ha, that's not what everyone thinks!" He caught the globe with no effort, "You two are always together… Your joined at the hip or something."
"He's my BEST FRIEND." I glared, and slammed the door to my bathroom. I quickly changed and did my hair. I stepped out and Matt was tossing the globe in the air above his head. "Besides," I plopped down next to him, "I can't even imagine, doing anything like…that with Embry."
"Twenty bucks says he'll try something tonight." He held out his hand for me to shake it.
"Define 'something'."
"Cop a feel, a kiss, anything in that nature." He pushed his hand farther out.
I sighed, and took it, "If I win you have to my chores for two months, and give me twenty."
"Deal." And we shook hands.
"So why are you jumping out the window?" Embry whispered from below my window.
"Cause I don't want my dad to see me." I whispered back. I threw my bag out the window and he caught it. "You better catch me."
"What if I don't?" He smirked.
"I'll haunt you till the day you die." I narrowed my eyes at him, and put one leg out the window.
"Oh shit… I'll catch you then."
I laughed, and took a deep breath. I closed my eyes tight, and pulled myself out the window until I was sitting on the ledge. I made a silent prayer and jumped.
Oh God I'm dead. That son of a bitch didn't catch me! I'm gonna-
"You can open your eyes now."
My eyes flung open and I was latched onto Embry. "I'm never ever, ever doing that again." He just chuckled and placed me on my feet.
"Favorite color?" I asked Embry, popping a piece of popcorn in my mouth as we walked away from the movie theatre. Our movie sucked, so we left early.
"Err green." He answered, pulling out his keys and unlocking the passenger door.
"Movie?"
"Definitely no that one." He laughed. I plopped down in the seat and waited for him to get into the car.
"Person?" I smiled, "And if you don't say me, I'll kill you."
He laughed, "You."
"Good answer." I smiled, he started the car and we headed to first beach.
"Look I know you'll probably throw a tantrum, and try to beat the living shit out of me… but you and Jake really need to-"
"na na na na I can't hear you!" I yelled, closing my eyes tight and putting my hands over my ears. The next thing I know, Embry has tackled me and we are rolling around on the warm sand of First Beach. After a minute of laughing our butts off, we stop rolling around.
"For real though…" Embry said above me, his hands pinning my wrist to the sand, his voice out of breath.
"Embry…" I whined, "We both know that even if I did try something… he'd deny me. And I don't know if I could handle it…"
"So you do have feeling for him!" Embry's eyes widen, a smile playing on his lips.
"Like I'm losing the feelings in my legs?"
"Oh, my bad." He mumbled, and rolled off of me. "But what if… what if he doesn't deny you? Don't you think it's wroth a shot?"
"I gave him a shot!" I yelled, turning my head to look at Embry's profile, "But he acted like an ass."
"Its Jacob." Embry said in a 'duh' tone.
"Then I don't know if I want to be with a guy like that." I mumbled, sitting up and wrapping my arms around my knees.
"But… you don't know him, you don't know if he's an ass to his girlfriends."
"Exactly, I don't know him. Yet, his my soul-mate?"
"Imprinting is-"
"Fucked up?" I raised an eyebrow at him.
He narrowed his eyes at me, "I was going to say, Imprinting happens for a reason. You were born to be Jacob's."
I sighed, "Well he thinks that Bella was born for him."
"He just hasn't noticed that something absolutely amazing is standing right in front of him." Embry smiled at me.
I smiled back, "Thanks Em… but don't count on me making any babies with him any time soon."
He laughed, "That's exactly what we need, little Jacob's and Mack's running around here."
"What's that supposed to mean?"
"Err… I love you?" He rubbed the back of his neck.
"Ugh!" I yelled, and threw sand at him, and bolted for his car.
"Your gonna get!" He yelled, throwing sand at me.
"I had fun Em." I smiled at him, as I opened the passenger door.
"So did I." He smiled back, but then it faded, "Just promise me one thing?"
"What's that?" I asked, shutting the door and poking my head in.
"That you'll give it a shot?" His eyes were pleading.
I sighed, "I'll think about it." I stood up straight, as he cranked his car.
"Oh and Mackenzie?" I glared, but answered, "Please be careful." I gave him a sarcastic smile, "I love you, Mackers."
"I love you too Emmy bear." I smiled.
With that, I walked up to the front door and let myself in. Not noticing the large shadow that loomed over the lawn from the forest.
A/N: Do you think we should bring in an imprint for Matt and/or Embry? Maybe try and make Mackenzie jealous of their relationship with their imprintee? ;) tell what you think, and if you have any requests to be a character or an idea for a character!(: R&R!
