Chapter 2:

Izzy

"What the fuck!" I yelled sitting up quickly. I looked around wondering where the hell I was. I heard someone running, as I remembered that I had been to a party last night. The door flew open and the guy I met last night came in.

"What's wrong?" he asked looking at me.

"Um… hi, where am I?"

"You don't remember?"

"Um no… how did I get here?"

"I carried you."

"Oh shit… we didn't … did we?" I pointed at him then back at me.

"No you just crashed here, this is the spare room." He said chuckling

"Oh thank god. Oh I didn't mean…Um… thanks by the way."

"Its all good, I didn't want you getting in trouble with your parents or having to sleep in a car or something."

"Um… thanks" I had no idea what was going on. Did I really drink that much last night?

"Do you want some breakfast or something?"

"Um no thanks, if I eat now I may just throw up."

"Good to know."

"Sorry. I'm going to go have a smoke though if that's all right?"

"Yeah that's fine, just outside please."

"Yeah no problem." I grabbed my bag and went, sat on the porch steps and lit up.

"Izzy? Oh my god Izzy it is you, what the hell happened to you last night?"

"Um sorry Sara I was talking to this guy and my mum rang and I had a little too much to drink apparently and I woke up here."

"Ugh, why are you smoking? Wait you woke up here? Do you remember what happened?"

"Um number one; because I can, number two; yes I did and number three; not a thing."

"You woke up at Quil, Embry and Seth house and you don't remember what happened?"

"No sorry." The names Seth and Embry sounded familiar. I think Embry might have been the one I was talking to for hours.

"Well I got to go love, see you later, and enjoy your hangover." She said giving me a quick hug

"Ha-ha I don't get hangovers."

"Sure you don't by the way, I'm expecting details." She said walking away.

"You won't get them unless I remember!" I called back to her. She waved then went round the corner. I went back inside and asked if I could get a drink.

"Yeah sure help yourself, kitchens through there." Said the guy that I think was embry. He pointed to a door smiling hugely.

I walked into the kitchen and froze when I saw six really hot BIG guys crowded around a little round table. They all looked up when I walked in and gave me almost identical smirks.

"Uh… hi." I said blushing they all just looked at me.

"Cups are in the cupboard next to the sink." Said Seth, I think.

"thanks." I grabbed a glass and got a drink from the tap I drank it as fast as I could without drowning and put it on the bench. I walked out quickly, and went to go get my shoes. I closed my eyes and took a few deep breaths; I put my shoes on and started walking to the door.

"You need a ride somewhere?" I spun round to find Embry smiling at me leaning against the door frame.

"Um yeah sure thanks; I need to go back to Baillie's house to get my car."

"Sure, ill just get my keys."

"Ill wait outside." I said quickly as all the guys came out of the kitchen. I hurried out the door as a few of them started laughing. I leant against the porch again and waited for embry. He came out with his keys and a big smile. I followed him to his car and jumped in the passenger's seat. I half turned to him when he jumped in, and just looked. He was pretty damn hot. He saw me looking at him, smiled and raised an eyebrow.

"Sorry, I just… what happened last night?"

"Well we talked for a long time, you drank a lot, we talked some more the cops showed up, we hid you fell and then you crashed in my spare room."

"Oh, that's all." I said sarcastically. He just laughed. "Um… so what did we talk about?"

"Pretty much everything. You basically gave me your life story."

"Oh shit! Did I really tell you EVERYTHING?"

"Not everything I don't think."

"Well, what did I tell you?"

"You told me why you smoke and why you drink, and things like that."

"Oh crap, sorry."

"Nah it's all good. Oh and what's the difference between a happy drunk and an emotional drunk?"

"'scuse me?"

"You said to me last night 'aren't you glad I'm a happy drunk not an emotional one.'"

"Oh god did I really?"

"Yupp, I'm intrigued you should tell me."

"Um… ok. Well i'm a happy drunk so i'm almost always happy when drinking. An emotional drunk is someone sort of like Amber from home who gets really depressed and wants to kill herself, so she goes looking for knives and stuff, or she lies in the middle of the road. But it changes, so it all depends on the person. So pretty much they have more extreme emotions."

"Is your friend Amber alright?"

"Yeah she's fine; she's just not the happiest when drinking. Although we don't usually need to worry for that long, because she usually keeps drinking till she comers out. And we hide the knives and any pointy or sharp objects so its fine."

"Whoa."

"Yeah, she likes drinking just a little."

"No wonder why you were always smiling last night."

"Damn, i'm such an idiot."

"No your not. Why would you think that?"

"because I go telling this really hot guy all about my problems the first time I meet him and I cant even remember what I said." He pulled over and turned to face me as I put my head in my hands.

"Look, there's nothing to be ashamed about, I think it's cute."

"You. Think. Its. Cute?" I said slowly.

"Yes, so… what about this really hot guy?"

I groaned. And blushed as he laughed and started driving again. We got to my car and we traded cell phone numbers.

"Well I probably have to go or my mom will freak. Bye and thanks for looking after me."

"Ill see you around Izzy." He said looking a little depressed. I jumped in my car and pulled out. When I got home, it was just as I expected my mom practically leapt on me when I walked in the door.

"Where have you been? Why didn't you call me? Are you still wearing the same thing as last night? Did you meet any boys? You better not have stayed at a boy's house! So help me I'll-"

"MOM, shut up!"

"Don't talk to me like that!"

"Fine I won't. I'm going to have a shower."

"We will talk about his later young lady."

"No we won't." I mumbled under my breath. I got up stairs, dumped my purse and keys on my bed and went into my bathroom. I groaned when I saw myself in the mirror. I looked horrible, no wonder all those guys were laughing at me. I had a long hot shower before going back to my room to change. I couldn't find my favorite blue muscle back.

"ELLIE!!!!!" I screamed, my sister would have it, she always steals my clothes.

"WHAT!" she yelled back.

"COME HERE!!"

"What do you want?" she said peering in my door.

"Do you have my top?"

"Which one?"

My mouth fell open, "how many do you have?"

"Um... bout ten or so, maybe less."

"Can I have them ALL back please?"

"Ugh I suppose, ill give them back if you let me borrow your dress."

"No."

"Fine then no clothes for you." I growled and ran downstairs.

"MOM, TELL ELLIE TO GIVE ME MY CLOTHES BACK, AND I WANT A LOCK ON MY DOOR!"

"Calm down and go get dressed."

"But mom she stole all my clothes."

"Ellie, give her, her clothes back, you go change." She said pointing to me.

"It's rude to point mom." I said she threw a fork at me; luckily I dodged it and ran up the stairs. I finally got my clothes back after twenty minutes. I put my favorite top on my light blue skinnies and my Nike's. I went downstairs with my head down waiting for mom to yell at me. She had yelled at me for 15 minutes about absolutely irrelevant things, before she calmed down. I went to the store and brought a lock for my room. My step dad wasn't happy when he saw the lock, so he charged me for damages to the house. It was only ten dollars, but it's still not fair. I checked my phone and was surprised to see one new message on there.

Hey Izzy was just

wondering if you

wanted to hang

sometime?

Embry.

Aww he's such a sweetie. I sent back a quick replay saying that I would love to then I went to bed.

I woke up then groaned when I realized that I had school, I got up showered and did all the usual morning things. As soon as I got to school I was surrounded by my friends asking, no, demanding to know details.

"GUYS! Shut it ok!" I told them

"You promised you would give me details remember!" Sara practically shouted in my ear.

"I said I would give you details, IF I remembered and I haven't so can you not ask questions."

"But you woke up in his bed!" said Nicole.

"No I woke up in his spare room."

"I thought he had heaps of his mates there with him that morning?"

"Um he had about six friends over and they all just sat there looking at me with stupid grins on their faces."

"Oh my god! Do you know who they were?"

"One was Seth, other than that no sorry."

"I know Brady was there. He told me that Jacob, Sam and Collin were there as well."

"How-"I started, but was cut off by penny saying. "And of course Quil was there, I mean doesn't he live there?"

"Guys slow down okay! How do you know Brady, was it? Was there?" I turned my attention to Leah.

"Because he told me, duh"

"Yeah Leah's going out with him." Kiara said quickly.

"Kiara! I told you not to say anything!"

"Sorry"

Stephanie turned to me with an evil grin on her face and said "ok so… so far we know, you went to a party Saturday night, got a little bit drunk, stayed at Embry's place, woke up in his bed, and had all six of them looking at you."

"YOU WHAT!!!" oh shit I spun round quickly to see my big brother staring at me with wide eyes, crap.

"Nothing its sounds worse than it is."

"I'm telling mom you lied to her."

"No, no, no, no! Please anything but that!"

"Well ill think about it for the rest of the day and let you know, you better be nice to me or I'll tell Ellie and you know she will tell mom."

"Thanks guys, really helpful."

"Your welcome, man your brothers hot." Steph said looking at him walk away. My

mouth dropped in horror.

"STEPH!! Shut up that's gross. He's my brother!"

"Well he's not my brother."

"Still, it's Stephen." I shuddered. Just then the bell rang and I was thankful that we

couldn't talk in class.

By the time i got home I was sick of my friends and I just wanted to lock myself in my

room, crawl into bed and die. Although I was surprised that when I got home and I

found Embry leaning against his car, outside my house.

"Hey gorgeous." He said.

"Um…hi Embry." I said not sure.

"Well I got your text yesterday and thought that today would be a good day to

hang."

"Yeah I would love to but I probably can't, I have a feeling I will be grounded for a few

Months when my brother gets home and talks to mom."

"Um… ok then," he broke into a smile, "what did you do?"

"My brother heard my friends talking about the party and how I ended up crashing at

yours, so now my mom's going to kill me."

"That's pretty funny."

"No its not."

"Sorry, well ill see you another time then."

"Sure, just text me."

I went inside and my brother was already there he was sitting across from mom, and

when I walked in her head snapped up.

"Isabelle, I think we need to have a talk." Oh shit, shit, shit, shit! He told on me, I would

have to kick his ass now. I sat down took a deep breath and looked at my mother.

"Isabelle, do you know where your sister is?" whoa, was not expecting that.

"No mom sorry, why do you ask?"

"Because your brother has just informed me that she has been skipping school, and that

she is hanging around with Krystina. I don't want her getting hurt like you did."
