Chapter 3:

AN: So here's chapter 3. I hope you like it. If not well that kinda sucks. I was writing it while playing smurfs. I hope it making sense. It might not. But anyway enjoy. I think I lost everyone with last chapter so a review would be nice, you know tell me your still here, you like it, you hate it, what I'm doing wrong. Anything. But I will not beg for reviews.

Disclaimer : Guys, I don't own this. All rights go their respected owners. Stephenie Meyer owns the Twilight much to many's disappointment. I own Alicia and her parents and Jay. But... not the other characters. If I did, well someone would have die when he should have and I would get the damn sexy Paul.

AN 2: Just going to make this clear: italics is people thinking. Bold italics is emphasis. (think that's the word. And when there is a 'normal' type of lettering in italics sentence, its also emphasis. Back to the story.

Alicia's POV.

I wake in my bed. What?! How did I even get in bed? All I remember is that insulting guy and the injured guy. Oh God. I got to make sure he's okay!

I dig in my phone to find Emily's number. She said to call any time. I hope that counts for 7 in the morning.

She picks up on the first ring. "Hello? Emily here"

"Hey Em. It's Alicia. The girl from yesterday. I was just wondering if that guy from yesterday is okay. He looked pretty beat up."

"Awe, sweetheart of course he is. Just a scratch." She answers. Last time I seen it, it was definitely not a scratch. And I tell her that.

"You might have just seen things. I guess it doesn't really matter. He's fine and moving around. Actually he's getting wood for the fireplace."

"I... um... guess I should be going. You wouldn't mind if I drop by later? To you know get away from Lucifer?" I ask. Oh God I hope she says yes.

"You can come by anytime, any day. You are always welcome here." She reassures me.

"Oh thank you Em. I owe you, like, a life time." Phew. Dodged that bullet.

We say our good byes and I brace myself for whatever is going to happen downstairs.

xXx

I almost make it out of the house (thanks to my ninja sneaking out skills) after grabbing my swimming bag and wallet until I hear the words I really hate. Especially coming from her.

"ALICIA ABIGAIL ELIZABETH! Get your ass back here!" Lucifer yells.

Damn she found me. I frown.

"Why yes, Lucy. How can I help you today". I say sickeningly sweet.

"I found your note and it told me nothing of where you are going. Would you like to tell me anything?"

No. "Just going for a run. Don't wanna gain weight before prom. Even if that is like 9 months away. But still. And then maybe go swimming. It's actually sunny." I say honestly. Whoa! I'm being honest? Somebody write this day down in the calendar!

"Well you could have said 'going for a run' on your note. That would have sufficed. But I guess you can go." Lucy answers rudely. Maybe it wasn't rude but whatever comes out of her mouth becomes rude to me.

"Not like I was asking permission." I mumble.

"What was that young lady?" She says annoyed.

I don't answer her as I leave the house. I am vaguely aware of yelling but as I put the buds of my headphones in, I'm only aware of Josh Ramsay saying that he wants me. And all to himself.

I smile as I jog. Humming to the lyrics.

After a while I feel like someone's watching me. Well I don't doubt it, I'm singing aloud with Joshy and dance-walking. I bet I look attractive now. But when I look to where it feels like someone watching me, I end up looking at the woods.

I slowly start walking towards the woods, something is definitely off.

To my right I hear a twig snap and a spin. Nothing. As a spin back, I see nothing again. I start to walk in and I faintly hear a growl.

What the heck was th-. I'm interrupted from my thoughts when I ran into that invisible spider web. I karate chopped my way back to the beach. Never going near the woods again!

As I look back at the woods to say my parting goodbye, never to come back, I see a flash of silver and hear a growl. Maybe I am delusional? So I head back to the beach.

xXx

I decide to go diving since I see no one I can actually swim with.

After my longest dive yet -a full minute- I come up gulping for air and my head spins.

It takes a little while but when I come back down to earth I look around to gather my surrounds. I am further right then my stuff. Damn. But it also takes until then to see the big band of bulking guys to my right.

Damn. Are those the guys from yesterday? Damn. Well sure looks like it. How many guys look like that? I think. Ah crap they see me! Run! Or swim. I mentally scream.

Fastest way for me to run, is to dive. So that's what I do. I dive until I see the rock. Of course I was too late. Everything was going dark and cold. Ice cold. Hee hee. Ice ice baby! I mentally giggle as I drift off singing Ice Ice Baby.

xXx

Paul's POV.

I phase as quickly as possible and then start running. I don't care if I'm in my birthday suit; my imprint is in God damn trouble. I can feel it.

I run on to the beach, hearing gasps. I run to her bag and look out. Where is she?! I pull on my shorts as I look around.

I find the guys and they're waving me over. I can't help you guys, I mentally yell. Of course they can't hear me. So I wave back. No intention of going over until I see the trouble sign and then the imprint sign. Either my imprint is in trouble or someone's else's, which I have a duty to help anyway.

I pick up Alicia's bag and run over.

"Guys! What the fuck do you want?" I yell. Well oops kids. Cover your ears.

"Alicia was just over there and saw us and dived. She hasn't come up yet." Quil yells back.

I only hear the first bit clearly because I dive into the water and swim to where Seth is looking around.

"Where the fuck is she, Pup?" I yell. She's not dead I can feel that, but she's hurt.

"Paul! Just fucking dive! I can't." He yells back. I don't bother to ask why I just do.

When I finally find her - a heart breaking 30 seconds later- she is smiling. What's with this girl and smiling? Maybe she is supposed to be mine. Focus Lahote! Get the girl!

I come up once more - to Seth yelling- for air and dive back. I pull and she doesn't move. What does she weigh? I pull again and realize that her foot is stuck. And bleeding! Oh jeezus!

How can you even do that? Illogical! Anyway I move the rock and bring her to the surface. She's still breathing but not well. Shit. Maybe I should probably take her to Emily's. Or the hospital. But she could die getting there. Emily's it is!

I come running out of the water with a drenched body and a teenage boy chasing after me, yeah that didn't turn heads.

Once in the safety of the woods I tell Seth, "The fastest way to Em's is in wolf form. When I phase I want you to put her on my back. Make sure she won't fall off either or you will be to blame too!"

I quickly run off and phase when I come back Seth puts her on my back and I start running.

'What's wrong with her?' Quil asks.

'Not sure. But I do know Em will. And she'll know what to do. Plus it's quicker than the hospital. Think she broke her foot. Do you think we'd be able to get Dr. Fang down her quick enough?' I think worriedly.

'I'll call him now. Meet you at Sam's?' Quil thinks.

'Yeah. I'm not leaving her until she wakes. So I should be there.' I think back.

He phases back and my imprints heart beat starts to falter. She must have lost a lot of blood.

So instead of running to Emily's place, I book it. She is not going to die on my watch. Well I hope.

AN: So guys that was my failed attempt to leave it at a cliff-hanger ... as you can tell it didn't work to well. Sorry if it doesn't make sense or if anyone's OOC. I tried? Anyway. Until next time. :) P.s. Sorry for any errors. Remember I would like a review so I'm not confused on why everyone suddenly dropped this story? it would be help full but I won't make you…
