A few weeks had passed and you were really close with Embry. He had finally stopped not talking and started conversing with you about anything. You would meet up with him and you'd either do homework together or you'd teach him out to draw or you both would play video games at his place or at Jake's. It was like you two were inseparable. Your crush had blossomed even more once you grew to know him more and more. But you never told him, not even Jake.
Unfortunately Embry only saw you as one of the guys or your little sister. He had never mentioned that you were 'one of the guys' to you because you were obviously a girl but he just thought that you were a really good friend.
One day the two of you had bumped into each other and you made sure to remind him that you had a volleyball match coming up. He said he'd be there and you reminded him to bring Quil, because you know you wouldn't hear the end of it if he didn't get to see you play. Embry only laughed and walked off after waving goodbye.
…
It was time for the game and you were put in as a starter. Before the game you noticed that Embry was there along with Jake, Quil, and Bella, with no Edward for some reason. You were excited to see your friends there to support you. But one thing struck you as you looked back at Embry. His face was bright red and you noticed that Jake was teasing him about it. You brushed it off and warmed up with the team.
As the game went on you had spiked about three balls and served getting an ace each time. You were on fire. The team won all the matches and everyone was very happy shouting 'Victory' and throwing their hands up in the air.
After you changed into sweatpants and a t-shirt you walked out to see the group waiting for you to congratulate you.
"Man [y/n] I didn't know you were that athletic!" Quil exclaimed high fiving you. You pushed his shoulder and smiled.
"It seemed like Embry couldn't keep his eyes off of you." Jake giggled.
"Shut up Jake." Embry pushed Jake a bit. You scratched the back of your neck smiling a bit. Truth be told Embry really couldn't keep his eyes off of you. You and your damn shorts. He hadn't truly noticed that you had that kind of body until he saw you in your uniform. You usually wore sweaters or t-shirts around them so he really didn't see much. He mentally face-palmed himself and shook his head ridding his thoughts. At dinner you wanted Embry to sit by you but he sat all the way on the other side by Bella. Quil took his place instead.
Stories and laughter were spread throughout the table and it was about time for you to head home for some much needed sleep. Quil was in the middle of a story about how he was fighting some kid, Embry stormed out of the diner. You watched as he ran out of the building without looking back.
"What's with him?" Quil asked.
"Maybe he didn't like your story," you said with a monotone voice, trying to lighten the mood.
