So here we were standing in Sam's backyard describing how it felt to see this girl, I mean we didn't even see her face and both Jared and I would be willing to take a bullet for her. Sam started smiling at us like he knew exactly why we were dealing with this dilemma and if Sam knew then we did too on account of the whole mind melding thing we have going on when we phase.
"Isn't it obvious?" Sam asked, clearly it was a rhetorical question but both Jared and I shook our heads.
"She's most likely going to be an imprint. Jared you feel about her the same way you feel about Emily." He said it like it was so damn obvious. I didn't really want to open my mouth again until I worked out what he was trying to say, so Sam says she will most likely be an imprint and then it clicked I was the only wolf that was yet to imprint so that would mean.
"No!" I exclaimed there is no way that I was going to imprint not ever. I could see Sam grinning at me as all the pieces fall into place.
I did the one thing I was good at, I ran. I made it all the way to Canada before I could think clearly enough to work out a plan but when I did it was so blatantly obvious that I instantly felt like a fool. All I had to do was not look into her eyes, I never look into her eyes I never imprint, I never imprint and I never have to give up my man whore ways it was the perfect plan. Or so I thought until I crossed her scent in the forest on the way back into La Push, what the hell was someone doing so deep in the woods. I could feel my stomach churning at the numerous possibilities of what could happen to her, whether I wanted to or not I could feel my body moving through the trees tracking the scent. The forest was getting less dense making it impossible for me to carry on in wolf form, I phased back and the draw towards the girl lessened huh, I thought that's interesting now. Though the draw had lessened there was still a pull to her which is what had my legs moving in that direction once again, when the trail made a sudden right my stomach clenchedI knew where this led. My brisk walk turned into a full out sprint as I headed towards the largest cliff lining the La Push shore, it was at least a twenty storey drop straight down into the choppy ocean. Even if you did survive a fall like that there is no way you would make it out of the water alive, the current was far too strong and would bash your body against the rocks within seconds. I ran right to the cliffs edge, she wasn't up here oh god please tell me she didn't jump. The way her scent clung to the first few feet down the cliff led me to believe she had gone over, how was I the one to end up with the Looney tunes imprint, seriously what had I ever done to the gods for them to punish me like this.
That was where Sam found me hours later just standing on the edge looking down with wide eyes, I didn't even register that there was someone coming up behind me until I felt his hand on my shoulder. "She jumped." Was all I could manage to say, I had failed at my duty as a protector hell all of us failed. We are meant to protect everyone all of them not just from leeches but anything that comes our way. There is a quote that I once read it said: You can not run away from a weakness you must fight it out or perish and if that be so why not now and where you stand. (Robert Louis Stevenson). I felt like that was written just for me because that is exactly what I did, I ran all the way to fucking Canada.
"Come on man let's get you home." Sam said gently trying to steer me away from the sea, I blindly followed him trusting that he would lead me home. We were taking a short cut across first beach when I smelt her, it wasn't an old trial in was fresh as in minutes old. My head snapped up and eyes searched up and down the beach until my they landed on her, she was in the same position as the day before and I just watched her. She was crying today but she had an aura of sadness around her that made me just want to wrap her in my arms and lend her comfort until I could make a smile appear on her face. Sam obviously felt my shoulders tense and my back straighten because he too looked up "Wow. I see what you mean now, about the pull. It isn't this strong towards Kim." Sam admitted mentally comparing this feeling to the one he feels for Kim – Jared's imprint.
He shook his head almost like he was admitting defeat "I'll have to discuss this with the elders? But in the meantime you might as well go meet her." He said shoving me in her direction, I tripped with the hard push Sam gave me and ended up face down in the sand before I knew what hit me. The sound of me collapsing into a giant heap on the ground must have drew her attention because when I looked and glanced at her on instinct I knew I was a goner. She was without a doubt the most gorgeous women I have ever seen and that wasn't just the imprint talking because I could hear the intake of breath from Sam.
