I laughed at how despicable these pesky mortals looked as they scampered around the room, trying to make an appearance in the eyes of the pitiful boys on the stage.
They sang something about losing a girl. How pointless! I have lost many women in my long lifetime!
I must have expressed my amusement aloud without my knowledge.
Seconds later 4 sets of eyes turned to me. I waved and then made a dashed for the trees. I made a mental note to be more cautious of the sharper hearing of the mutts.

" Jesus Christ, Em. Just freakin calm down!" I said pushing him into a chair. I'd already told everyone Embry had a shot due and they had to they did. Quickly in fact.
"He's gone. There's nothing we can do about that. There's no way you'll catch him with such a disadvantage." The pled in my voice seemed to be enough. Slowly with deep breathes he began to calm, and his twitching skin calmed.
"You're right. But we were careless;we should've done a run through." Em said eyeing Quil.
"Your right, Em. But I've got the creeps,can we move this meet to my place?" Quil replied, his arm tight around Violet.
"Yeah,sure,Man." Embry said,with a lopsided grin.
And we began to head toward my front door.
And it's a good thing we did, because just as we got off my drive way the entire house was engulfed in flames.
My house had just exploded.

I'd already tied Embry to a tree by the time the girls arrived.
We'd split as soon as the realization struck us that there was only one person who could be behind this.
Embry had started to turn, so I quickly tackled him and through him in the trunk of his Jeep. We barely made it to the Blacks' before the trembling got to severe. I felt bad because resisting like that...
Jake had handed over rope without hesitation.
" Ok, sorry it took so long. The officers were taken our statements and wanted to know if it could be connected to the kidnapping,blah,blah,blah." Anika said with her infamous look of disgust.
" It's fine, but maybe you should talk to Em, over here." I say, tilting my head in his direction.
"course." She says, dropping violets hand.
I'm quick to take her hand.
"Want to blow this popsicle stand?" I whisper in her ear.
"Yeah, sure lets go." She laughs, giving my hand a squeeze.
We sneak away without Anika or Em even noticing.
I let her lead, following close behind her. I watched as the light lit up her hair making it a rich brown opposed to her normal black. I remember asking her, on one of our first dates if her hair color was nature. She laughed and said alot of people asked that but yes it was natural.
At some point she turned around and caught me staring.
She was standing in a ray of light. All her features were lit up.
Her eyes a brown so basic yet so beautiful! They had flickers of amber around the pupil.
Her skin looked paled and radiant.
She looked like an angel.
"What?" She said, her head tilted causing her hair to fall in a curtain at her side.
"Your just so beautiful." I said. My cheeks grew warm. I hadnt meant to say it outloud.
"Your just saying that," she replied her eyes dipping down and her cheeks ablaze.
"The way you smile at the ground," I began to sing. She giggled.
"Stop,Ani will kill you if she hears you." she said.
I tipped up her chin and brought her lips to mine.
"I don't care, as long as I get you till then." I said, against her lips.
Just as they did, There was a piercing scream followed by a howl...
