Chapter 11.
Kate's P.O.V
"How did your first school day go? Did you even leave Embry's side?" Jenna asked as I sat down to eat dinner. Everyone turned to look at me and I sighed.
"It went well, and yes, I did leave his side. We don't have every class together" I said and they nodded. Jenna was a year younger than me so we hadn't met except for lunch. I sat with Embry and the rest of his friends at lunch and I was happy to already have friends at my new school.
After dinner I walked up to 'my room' a.k.a the guest room to do my homework. I was a little behind the rest of the class so I had to make up for some stuff. Jenna stopped me before I walked inside.
"Oh and Kate, the next time you bring Embry over, tell him he is allowed to use the door" she said and winked before walking over to her room. I stood there looking after her, feeling myself blush. She knew Embry had been coming over for the last couple of nights? He had jumped in through the window and she must have known he hadn't used the door. Oops.
Embry had been sleeping here a few times, and I was no longer uncomfortable with the thought of him seeing me when I woke up in the morning because I knew he didn't care. We hadn't done 'it' yet but we didn't feel like we needed to rush anything.
I went inside my room and started with my homework. I sat on my bed, listening to music, when I heard a familiar tap on the window. I smiled as I saw Embry on the other side and opened the window to let him inside.
"You know, you could just leave the window open" he said and gave me a kiss on the lips. I smiled in to the kiss and felt his arms wrap around me, pulling me closer, while I grabbed his shirt. We broke the kiss and smiled at each other.
"But then the room would get cold" I said and went back to my bed and sat down. "I just have to finish this thing, it will only take a second" I said and he sat down next to me. It was hard to concentrate when he kept playing with my hair and I just wanted to turn around and kiss him again. I kept my cool though.
"There's something I need to talk to you about" he suddenly said and I froze. He noticed my reaction and hurried to continue. "No, it's ok" he assured me. "It's just that I can't stay the night, there's a... pack meeting" he said and I frowned.
"About what? Is something wrong? Is it about vampires?" I asked and grabbed his hand. I didn't know much about vampires because Embry refused to tell me about them, but I definitely knew that they were dangerous and scary.
"I told you about the Cullen's right?" he asked and I nodded. There was a coven of 'vegetarian vampire's, as they called themselves, who lived in the area. "Well we're working together on a thing and we have to meet them tonight" he said and I thought about it. They were working with vampires? Something had to be really wrong in that case.
"Why are you working with them? What's going on?" I asked, confused. He sighed and played with my fingers.
"There are some vampires in Seattle that we need to take care of, and they're a threat to one of the Cullen's partner, and so we're helping each other. Nothing to worry about" he explained. In Seattle? Did that have something to do with all the deaths and stuff that had happened recently?
"Ok... will you be alright? When you fight those vampires I mean" I asked and he gave me a reassuring smile.
"Of course, I'm a badass" he answered and I smiled. If werewolves were made to kill vampires then I guess I had nothing to worry about. "It's in a few days, just so you know" he said and I couldn't help but get a little nervous.
Just as Embry had told me he didn't stay the night, I didn't realize he was gone until I woke up in the middle of the night feeling like something was missing. I must have fallen asleep when we were talking. I thought about that whole vampire fight thing. I was worrying about him of course, but there was nothing I could do about it. I sighed and turned around in bed but froze when I heard a noise coming from my bed side table. My phone. Who the hell was texting me at this hour? I picked my phone up and looked at the display. It was an unknown ID.
"Do as I say and no one gets hurt. If you show this to your boyfriend someone you care about will get hurt"
I stared at the text in shock and read it over and over again. Was someone messing with me? It was probably someone from school trying to be funny, messing with the new girl. I sighed and put my phone away and a few minutes later I fell asleep again.
A few days later, a friday, I was getting a ride home from school with Quil because Embry was on patrol, and I asked him about this vampire thing. I figure he'd tell me more than Embry would since he wasn't as protective.
"Is there a chance he would get hurt?" I asked and looked at Quil. He shrugged.
"Bigger chance him than me" he answered and my eyes widened. "But he won't, don't worry. We're skilled and the vampires aren't" he added but I couldn't relax. I was freaking nervous. I cared about Embry more than I cared about anyone else in the world. He was my everything. I didn't know what I would do if anything happened to my little snuggie bear.
Quil dropped me off at my house and I went inside. When I hung my jacket on the hanger my phone got a text. I picked it up from the pocket, thinking it was from my parents or someone else,but froze when I saw that it was from an unknown ID again.
"Midnight, parking lot outside of the local store. Come alone, and if you don't do this I'll send this to your boyfriend. Think he'd appreciate it?"
There was a picture too, a picture of me, kissing...
"Oh my god..." I breathed. How had that person gotten that photo? It was a picture of me kissing my former teacher, and this was something I would never want Embry to see. Even if he already knew about it, it was still the most horrible thing I had ever told him about. He couldn't see this.
But who the hell was this person and what did he or she want from me? Was it someone at my old school? Impossible. But I would get to see who it was tonight, I had to. I couldn't risk Embry seeing that picture, it wasn't really that dangerous, something dangerous would be something involving a vampire.
Liked it? Hated it? Let me know! Please review! xoxo
