Finally, after what seemed like an eternity, I was no longer 'the burning man'. I was curled up on the nice cold floor, my arms wrapped around my chest, and gasping for air. I heard people talking around me, but I didn't pay attention to them. I was extremely embarrassed. Couldn't I go a day without embarrassing myself? And what on earth was wrong with me lately? I should be the happiest person alive, and yet, it takes the smallest things to set me off. It was hardly fair.

I opened my eyes when my breathing was somewhat normal, and I rolled onto my back. I wasn't staring at anything in particular; I was just looking up at the ceiling. All I could thing was why I was such a freak. I heard a chuckle, and I could only guess it was from Edward. "I hear voices in my head, and she is worried that she is a freak because she has a vision when she shouldn't have such a power in the first place." I heard him say. I shot strait up. "That was so not a vision." I snapped. "Well then what was it?" he questioned me, I shook my head. "Beats me. But I know my visions; that wasn't a vision." I defended myself.

"How often does this happen?" Alice asked me. "It happens to her a lot, actually. I'm usually there when it happens to her." CJ said before I could get a word out. Of course, he would remind everyone how he knows me more than they do. I saw Alice nod. I curled into myself and glared at the floor boards. Embry was next to me and holding out a glass of water. I gulped it down, though it didn't make me feel much better.

Then one word popped into my head. Sugar. Must. Have. Sugar. I stood up shakily and walked to the kitchen; everyone else had gone off and done something else by this time. Who knows how long I was sitting there staring at the floor? I got out soda, that didn't work. I wanted chocolate. And there was none to be found. "ALICE!!!" I called. She came running down the stairs. "Chocolate. Lots. Got it!" she said and pranced out the door. I was so happy that she was getting me chocolate. Sooooooooo happy. I was in a better mood now. I smiled up at Embry and wrapped my arms around him. He smiled down at me, seemingly pleased that I was happy again. I kissed him with a lot of passion. More than I thought I had in me.

Soon after that, we found ourselves in my bedroom, making out on the bed. It was Heavennnnnn. I never thought that making out could feel quite like that. Only when I began touching him in ways that should be considered illegal, did he push me away. "Dee, we are not ready for that." He told me breathlessly. He may not be, but I was. But, I was willing to wait for him. I loved him with all my heart, body, and soul. I wanted to show him that love. I just smiled and nodded, letting him know he didn't hurt my feelings at all. I brushed my hair as we chatted happily. I told him about how things were at home, and then I remembered.

With my eyes wide, I bolted down the stairs, falling a few times, but made my way to my cell phone, where Edward had left it. I hastily dialed my dad's number, and he answered it on the second ring. "Hey kiddo, didn't hear from you yesterday." He greeted me. "Yeah dad I'm sorry about that. I completely spaced out." I told him honestly. "That's okay. So are you having fun?" he asked me. "Oh yeah, tons of shopping." I told him with a laugh. He ended our short phone call, telling me he loved me and couldn't wait for me to get home. I wondered what home would be like when I got there. I frowned. It wouldn't be the same. I would have to keep a big secret. It was going to be hard. I would have to lie. For the first time in my life, I would have to lie to my father. I didn't know how I felt about that.

Alice had walked in, with tons of chocolate. I thanked her tons of times, while she just laughed at me. So did Edward and Bella. What could I say? I loved chocolate! Sad part was, since I felt entitled to share with Embry, I also had to share with Jake, Seth, and –twitch- CJ.

* * *

CJ was better, I did admit that. But I could still see the longing in his eyes. I was nearing the end of my rope with him, I could feel the anger, and dread for what I was doing building and building. Embry had to run patrols at certain times every day. So, throughout those times, either Edward and I, or CJ and I took long walks down the river. I liked being in the open forest, and also, when I was following the river, I could sometimes see Embry crossing through it. I could also see a trail, well somewhat of a trail, which I could tell was where Embry and the pack ran.

I was deep in the forest now, and I was walking with CJ rather than Edward today. For some reason, Edward had found me a fascinating creature; he had made me tell him of many details of my life. I usually didn't say much, I just let him hear what I wanted to say. It was easier for me that way. Sometimes, I just didn't feel like talking. So it was easier being around Edward than the rest of the family. And far better being around Edward than being around CJ.

We were due to leave in two days. I was so sad about having to leave this lovely place...that Jasper could barely stand being around me for too long. I was also sad for that reason; Jasper was really fun to be around. Edward was coming with us to Vegas in Jasper's place. Surprisingly, it was going to be overcast again when we got back to Vegas. That means Edward would meet my father… And Embry. We already had the story down pat. That Alice and I met at Palo, and then found one another online again and decided to start hanging out, and because she lived closer to my mother than to my house: that was the real reason why I went over there for such a long time. And, also, Embry was coming with us to Vegas. We would tell my parents that Alice had known Embry for forever, and once him and I shown interest in one another, she decided to help him get into the house across the street from us.

That would just have to do. And if they didn't believe it, then oh well. And CJ had vowed to go along with it. That he had seen Alice and Embry around school a lot, and that he liked Embry and considered him a good friend. It was bulletproof, Alice said. But anything is possible with my father's temper, and my own. "You are going to miss it here, aren't you?" CJ asked me after a while of walking in silence. I nodded and smiled weakly. "It's so beautiful here, it's killing me just thinking about leaving." I confided in him. "Well then why don't you just stay?" he asked, with an edge to his tone. "I have to many responsibilities at home. I have to take care of things for a while. That... and I'm too young to go out on my own. Dad would never allow it." I told him, shaking my head. He agreed with me. He knew enough about my father to know that much. We walked in silence again for a while, but then he stopped walking. I turned around and looked at him, furrowing my eyebrows together in confusion. What was he doing? "CJ, what is it?" I asked. He looked down at the ground, as if to draw inspiration from the soil. "I just… was wondering something." He said. He was as red as a tomato. What would he be- oh... "What were you wondering?" I asked, shuffling my feet from side to side.

"Have you and Embry…." He asked trailing off. He didn't want to say it, and I didn't want to hear him say it. I chuckled. "No, we haven't. Not yet." I told him. He turned a shade of lighter red. "Well why not? What's the hold up?" he asked looking at me then. "He isn't ready. He wants it to be more romantic." I told him, jutting my chin out. Defensive. He nodded as if he understood. I began walking again, not caring if he decided to follow or not. When he got this way, I wanted nothing to do with him. He followed me, and changed the subject to baseball for a while.

When we got back to the house, I decided to go upstairs and take a shower to get nice and clean for Embry before he got home from his patrol. When I looked into the mirror as I waited for the water to get hot, I noticed how much I had changed since my first day here. I could swear I was way taller than before. When I got here, I was 5 foot 4 inches tall, and now, I was closer to 5 foot 11, maybe even 6 foot tall. Definantly a growth spurt, just like my dad told me I would end up getting. I was not only taller, but I was leaner. More skinny. I lifted my shirt over my head, and looked at my stomach. I used to consider myself chubby, and now… there was just no way I could pull chubby off anymore. I had lost so much weight; I was fitting into a size 10. When I got here, I was a size 14. My arms were more well defined as well, and my face had lost all its baby fat.

I wondered idly who I would be when I got home. Would I still be the happy and cheerful Dee that everyone knew? Or would I be to depressed from leaving this place to be happy? I grimanced as I took the rest of my clothes off and got into the shower. I hoped my parents didn't notice too much of a change. I was actually wondering about this change myself. Its not like I ate any different over here than I did over there. I drank more energy drinks, and ate more chocolate. I smoked a lot less too. I nearly almost never smoked unless I was around CJ. It was all confusing, but I figured it was just the Krentzel growth spurt of the century. I mean, look at my cousin Dallas. He was a big boy for a really long time. Then when he turned 16 he shot right up and lost all that baby fat. It had to be something genetic like that.

I pulled on some of the new pajama pants that Alice had gotten for me when we went to the mall last Saturday. I was already too small to wear all the clothes she bought for me on my way here. These ones were really cute. Of course, Alice had insisted that all my pajama's and intimates be from Victoria's Secret or Fredericks of Hollywood, so most of them were cotton or satin, some even silk. I decided on cotton ones for my stay here, they were more appropriate and more warm than the other ones. I had a tank top to match. And, even with them being too cute, I was comfortable. They were light blue, and had a big peace sign on the left hand side, and said PINK on the butt. Clearly, Victoria's secret. And the tank top had a peace sign on the front in the center of my chest. It was, in all reality, nothing I would have worn two weeks ago. But Alice and her fashion sense was rubbing off on me.

Walking down the stairs in my fuzzy black slippers, I found that Embry and CJ were yelling at each other. I rushed into the living room, screaming a frantic question in my head for Edward to help me find out what was going on. "I DON'T CARE WHAT YOU GUYS USED TO DO!" Embry roared in CJ's face. "EDWARD!!!!" I yelled frantically in my head. He stayed where he was, standing on the other side of CJ and Embry, looking at me as if to say he wishes he could come and explain, but if he didn't, Esme's furniture would be ruined.

"MAYBE YOU SHOULD! YOU CANT JUST COME INTO HER LIFE EXPECTING ME TO BACK DOWN AND NOT PUT UP A FIGHT!" CJ roared at Embry right back. This whole situation was getting entirely out of hand. I ran up to them. "STOP IT! NOW!" I screamed shoving at CJ's chest, getting him to back away from me. He had tried to wrap his arm around my waist to pull me to him. I was not having that. "Dee, please don't…" Edward started to whisper, but I didn't let him finish. "YOU HAVE TO REALIZE THAT I AM NOT YOUR PROPERTY CJ! I NEVER WAS! IT ISYOUR FAULT THAT I STOPPED LOVING YOU A LONG TIME AGO! YOU CANT EXPECT ME TO BE ABLE TO JUST TURN A SWITCH AND FALL IN LOVE WITH YOU AGAIN! IT JUST DOESN'TWORK LIKE THAT!" I screamed at CJ. He was flaming hot, he was so mad I could swear he wanted to hit me. "SO YOU SIT HERE AND LET THEM FEED YOU THIS IMPRINTING SHIT?" he yelled back at me. That was all it took.

One minuet, I'm standing there getting ready to scream at CJ again, and the next, everything went red and fuzzy, and I started to hear voices in my head. I saw everything differently, I heard a lot more than normal. I was no longer who I was just two minuets ago.
