Ch.5: Birthday/School

Jayla's POV

I learned a while ago that none of the older wolves with imprints stopped phasing because the overall reason, over the last seven years the vampire activity increased 10fold, and some was the fact they were waiting for their imprints to grow up, or their imprints don't age. That was random...

It's me and Leila's birthday! She's eight, and of course I'm technically stuck at seven, but yeah, I'm eight as far as I care, or 18 I guess. I knew they threw a party, and are letting her sleep in, but I ignored my mother's call to get up. I also know Sam&Em have an announcement. It's actually calmed down enough after seven years for them to... never would have thought. Nobody can fool me. Of course there are vamps still comin on the Rez, but since I phased and got my strength back, there aren't nearly as many. My door opens and the light flicks on, I shove my pillow over my face.

"Jay, come on, Seth's downstairs," that was a lie, I just stayed in the same position. Then he knocked on the front door and she let him in. He's to my room in a second. The sound of his breathing is enough to drive me to sleep.

Dream

I'm in a black void, and there's someone in front of me. She looks almost just like me, except her eyes are light brown, and she was a red head, not that dyed red like Trinity, a natural red head.

"Cora?" I ask. She nods.

"Hello Jayla... is that Zack on your end?" she asks and I nod this time.

"Yeah, that's him... his name is Seth now though," She smiles.

" I guess it's true you know you've found the one you were ment to be with when-"

"They're willing to love you in your next life..." I finish. "That's where I got that from... why are you here?"

"Aren't I allowed to say hello to my future self?"

"Um, no." she grins at that.

"Fine, I came to say happy birthday, Jayla,"

"Thanks,"

"Hows Seth on your end?" she grinned.

"His name is Zack on my end... he's here if you want to see him..."

"Yeah, just to say hi," then suddenly he comes up and I smile. Just like Cora and I the similarity between him and Seth was creepy, except he has blonde hair, and blue eyes (A/N: I forgot to give them physical descriptions).

"Cora, is this Jayla?" he asks her and she nods. "Happy birthday,"

"Thank-you Zack... and Cora? Why are you so happy? This was technically our death day... ya know?" her smile slightly lessens but then comes back. I really was curious.

"I know, but the fact is, the Charm Catcher's are gone, and aren't a danger anymore, and that we came back... and stronger," I smile widely.

"Zack?" he looks at me when I call his name.

"Yes Jayla?"

"Can you knock some sense into yourself, he's terrified up there, it's killing me,"

"Sorry, Allison's the only one who can do that,"

"It was worth a shot," All three of us laugh and I started to wake up. "See you two soon," I look around my room walk over to Leila's bed wake Lei up.

"Jay, why?" she sounded irritated.

"Because if I go down I'm takin' you with me!" I lift her out of bed and carry her out the room and walk downstairs. We woke up last night and got ready.

Katie's POV

So it's Leila's and the mutant's birthday. I hear steps.

"Hear they come," I whisper unenthusiastically.

When they come down stairs everyone yelled 'Surprise'. Mutant over there set Leila down and Leila runs to Embry, he lifts her up and she tries to fall back to sleep on his shoulder.

"Someone's still tired," he chuckles shaking her.

"Jay look," Seth says and she turn to him smiling, and it grew wider and her eyes widen when she saw what was in his hand. It was two of those weird butterfly knives from "Kick-Ass" that Hit-girl used. There was a red ribbon around them.

"Oh my goodness!" she takes them from his hand, "THANK YOU SETH!" She hug him tightly, and he returns it. She let go and opens one of them, shoving the other in her boot and, that thing are alot like a numchuck to her I'd bet. Everyone was laughing at her as she was snickering away with it, except me, Even Brady was. Because, I'd bet many of them thought it was nice to see her having fun for a change, and after when they told me what she said about her life was true, I think she deserved some fun in her childhood. But I didn't see that as nice, I saw that as a threat, danger that she's never used those things before, and yet she still used them perfectly.

"Leila, this one's for you," Seth says and he holds a pen with the ribbon on it. I didn't see what was so great about a pen, but her eyes widen like the Mutant's.

"Is that what I think it is?!" Seth nods smiling. Embry sets her down and she takes a mad dash towards Seth and hugs him. "THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!" She takes the pen and clicks it and it turns into a dagger. "Way better than a sword," she said to me, probably reading my thoughts and she chucks the dagger at her sister who deflects it with the knife sending it flying towards Paul, and he ducks it just in time. They all laugh, and even I had to laugh a little at Pauls expression. They highfive and Leila takes the dagger out of the wall.

"I never thought I'd say this but, NO! There's TWO OF THEM!" Paul jokes and Mutant girl frowns. Jacob walks up and chucks something at her and she catches it. A key to a motorcycle. The motorcycle was hackin' awesome!

The party was epic, I'll give them that. Next worry, School. I have to go to school with that mutant in two days

"Mom, dad, just get it over with, tell them," she suddenly says and looks at Sam and Em, grinning. What NOW!?

"You never cease to amaze me, Jay, ya know that?" Sam says to her and turns to Emily. She just looks at everone a for a second before blurting it out.

"I'm pregnant," and everyone cheers. Wow, suspense alert. It finally calmed down enough... wow. Parties rock!

A/N:AHHHH! Surprise! Emily! The song to this chapter is Ironic, because I was listening to it when this idea came to my head. Oh, and check out my poll. The question is what would you do for a Klondike Bar? I asked that because Jayla LOVES Klondike Bars. Not as much as her family, but still. R&R PLEASE! Don't judge.
