If only he knew the truth about her...

Would he still love her if he did...?

Embry

I was waiting impatiently for Izzy's plane to land. No matter what shit she had pulled while she was away, I missed her like crazy.

"dude calm down, she'll be here in a second." Seth put his hand on my shoulder to stop me from bouncing. It didn't work.

"Embry!" Izzy came running at me from out of nowhere. She jumped and wrapped her legs around waist.

"Izzy, public place! Keep it pg." I recognized her friend Anna walking slowly behind her trying to push the big trolley full of suitcases.

"hey Anna. This is Seth by the way. Seth that's Anna. Well go help her with the trolley."

Seth gave a little wave and took the luggage from her no sweat. I carried Izzy out to the car as she blatantly refused to let go of me.

"what's all the suitcases for? Did you bring New Zealand back with you?"

"nah suitcases were slightly too small." Anna said opening the door for me as I had my hands full with Izzy.

"there presents for everyone." Izzy said after kissing me… again.

I held on to her tightly inhaling her scent. It was off. She didn't smell like she did before she left.

"I missed you so much Embry. You have no idea."

"I missed you too Izzy. So much."

"I missed you too Embry!"

"I missed you as well Anna."

"yuss." Anna did a fist pump in the front seat.

"are you okay Izzy? You look skinny."

"why thank you… actually you do too… Are you eating properly?" I wasn't going to tell her I hadn't so I said nothing. "Embry, when we get to your house i'm going to make you a mean feed."

"okay." She looked at me and I noticed that her perfect blue eyes don't sparkle anymore. They were dull, as if she hadn't used them for a while. She smiled and I couldn't help but kiss her. she smiled and slipped her tongue into my mouth. I heard a scream from outside the car and she was pulled away from me.

Kim had her in a hug and was yelling in her ear.

"Kim, i'm going to go deaf if you don't tone it down." Izzy laughed.

"oh sorry, i'm just so happy that you're here."

"hey, I wouldn't miss this for the world."

Everyone was here to welcome Izzy home. she loved every minute of it, she was absolutely buzzing. Anna kept looking at her weird though… wasn't she her best friend? I thought that Anna would be happy as Izzy is.

"can I stay with you tonight I don't really feel like sleeping on a couch tonight."

"I wouldn't want you anywhere else." She hugged me and yawned. I noticed that she was starting to smell more like her old self. Maybe it was being here with a lot of people who loved her.

When I woke up in the morning she was gone. i threw some pants on and went into the lounge, I paused at the kitchen door because It sounded like Izzy and Anna were having one hell of a whispered fight…

"what'd you do with them Anna?"

"I took them."

"give them back. They're mine and I want them back."

"I cant its gone."

"you selfish bitch." Holy shit something big had happened.

"you said you would stop when you were with him again."

"I know… but you know how hard it is… I cant stop, I need it to get by." I had no idea what they were talking about. It was silent for a minute then Anna spoke.

"okay, we'll sort it but after the wedding you have to stop okay?"

"okay, and thanks, I know you care and I love you for it, but i'm still pissed." some music was turned on and I walked in.

"morning sweetie." Izzy came and gave me a kiss. She was wearing just my shirt which I thought I had lost ages ago, she must have taken it with her.

"morning… uh is that my shirt? The one I lost ages ago?"

"you never lost it… I took it. I needed something to sleep in. you hungry I made eggs."

"yeah thanks." She set down a huge plate of scrambled eggs and toast in front of me. Then she slammed a plate down for Anna.

"whoa, what's your beef Iz-myster?" Seth said walking in after just having come in from patrol. Anna stared at his chest with her mouth hanging open. I laughed and shoveled the rest of my food down.

"nothing, i'm just a little aggravated at the moment because a certain someone cant keep their opinions to themselves."

"uh-oh, what'd you say Embry." He punched me in the arm.

"not me, Anna." I said with my mouth full earning a slap from Izzy. "sorry." Another slap. I watched her cook Seth some food and do the dishes. As she went to put the frying pan up the shirt rid up a little so that you could see the bottom of her panties. It was so hot. I left my food sitting on the table threw her over my shoulder and ran to my room. She laughed Seth gagged and Anna sighed. I put her down on the bed and lay on top of her. she laughed and kissed me passionately.

"Izzy, get up."

"leave us alone Anna!"

"if you don't come out here now, it aint gonna to be pretty."

"well I can guarantee that you will be scarred for life if you come in."

"that's a risk i'm willing to take. Anyway, that Kim chick is going to be here soon, to do wedding stuff. She called while you guys were having extremely loud sex."

"real casual Anna." I reluctantly got up and put my jeans back on. Izzy pulled her shorts and a singlet on and went to open the door.

"I wish you would stop doing that."

"its not my fault you guys cant keep your hands off each other." I started laughing and Anna glared at me.

There was a knock on the door and I went to answer it leaving the girls to chat.

"hey dude." It was Collin and Brady.

"whoa, smells like sex in here." Brady said loudly.

"yeah they were at it for about forty five minutes. I had to leave." Seth said from the couch. Colin and Brady cracked up laughing and joined him. Anna and Izzy came out arguing again as there was another knock. I got up to go get it but Izzy pushed me to the ground and opened it to a bouncing Kim.

"lets go find me a wedding dress and you a brides maid dress and then we can have lunch and find shoes then you can come to the florist with me and help me pick out flowers this is going to be so much fun." Kim said in one hurried breath and finished panting. Izzy rolled her eyes at me and waved.

"cheer up dude, were here to keep you company." Seth said happily. I smacked him. "ow what was that for."

"because I felt like it." I shrugged and Anna, who had decided to stay started laughing. Brady gave up his seat so she could sit down. He smiled hugely and Collin raised his eyebrows.

"what?" Brady asked when he realized we were all looking at him.

"dude you got it bad." Seth said casually.

A/n. sorry, short chapter I know. Writers block! But I couldn't think of what else to write and I didn't want to bore you. Hopefully next chapter will be back to normal length.
