Quil pov.
I haven't gone to the lee house since that night. I haven't really talked to Amethyst either. I try to but she doesn't help at all. I ask her questions and I get a two maybe three word answer. It's like she doesn't want to get close to anyone here. Or she doesn't know how. Maybe she's still getting used to La Push.
I heard running behind me and saw Embry and Jake running towards me. In human form luckily. "You've been down for about three days now. Let's go for a run." Embry said. I shook my head at him. "That wasn't a suggestion. Lets go." Jake added on. So we transformed into wolf form and ran towards the beach. I cleared my mind of everything except the feel of running. That is until we were about to cross onto the beach. Then the wind blew and I caught a familiar sent. Amethyst.
I stopped dead in my tracks. Quil? Jake asked. What's up man? Embry asked. Go human now! Or turn around. Amethyst's here. I smell her. As soon as I finished saying that we went human and put our shorts on. Then we walked onto the beach. And I saw Amethyst. She was sitting leaning against the trunk of a tree reading some book. I can't read the title. "Hey Amethyst!" I called when we got closer to her. She looked up and smiled slightly. She was wearing black boots over black skinny jeans, along with a dark blue t-shirt and a black sweater. "hi." She said nodding at Jake and Embry. "Hey Embry lets get out of here." Jake said. Thank you Jake. He knows I want to be alone with her.
"Well ok then." She mumbled watching them walk away. "Ha! You speak!" I exclaimed to be funny. It worked she laughed. "what do you mean by that anyway?" she asked me closing her book. "you haven't really talked in about three days." I said sitting down next to her. She mumbled oh. Then she said. "Yea, I've just been out of it. I guess." It seamed like she was holding something back. She wouldn't look me in the eye. "you know you can talk to me. I'm always here." I said. Maybe knowing someone other than the Lee's are here for her will help. Well them and that mystery guy that gave her the flowers. I still don't know who that guy is and it's been driving me crazy. She sighed. "I'm just confused. And homesick." She explained. I looked at her expectantly. I know that's not all she has to say. And maybe if she talks to me I can understand her better. And then I could help her. "ok. This is gonna sound crazy. But I feel extremely close to you. Ah, you probably think I'm even more of a freak. You know what, I'm just gonna shut up." Then she looked away.
She feels close to me? That's good. It's a start towards the right direction. Where I tell her I turn into a big furry dog. "I feel close to you too. So you don't sound crazy. And I haven't once thought that." If I'm honest to her shell be honest to me. Hopefully.
She smiled. "what?" Now I'm the one who's confused. "the only one who's never thought I'm a freak is my best friend Peirce. He saved my life, more than once. You asked me what my dad did to get arrested. He got arrested for aggravated assault and armed robbery. He robbed a bank because he needed drug money. He was a drug addict. I can tell you from experience, living with a drug addict isn't fun. But addiction, it's a state of mind. There's no such thing unless you believe you are addicted. I tried every type of drug my dad did, and then some. Yet, I almost killed my self when I first found out. Because I started cutting my wrists. That's when I met Peirce. He showed me that it wasn't hopeless. That's how he saved me the first time. The other two, I nearly overdosed. He found me both times and took me to the hospital. Like I said, he's my best friend. He's the only one who's ever showed me that there's more to life than destruction." She explained. Wow. I would have never though. What she's lived with, what all she's done its amazing. "what all did you overdose on?" oh. Should I have asked that? She laughed. "the first was on crack. The second on acid. That's why my voice is like this. Well that and all the concerts I've gone to." She added laughing.
"you don't seem to mind." She looked at me confused. "mind what? My voice? I kinda like it." She said looking up at the beach. "you're so different. But in a good way." I said. She smiled and looked down at her feet. I feel even closer to her now. She's not as much of a mystery any moor. It's like I know a different side of her. Threw one little description of a part of her life. I know more about her. Her life hasn't been like I imagined. I took her chin in my hand and made her look up at me. She has the prettiest dark green eyes I've ever seen. She also has her snake bite piercings in. before I knew it she was moving in to kiss me. I guess I didn't respond fast enough so she started to pull back. So I moved my hand to the back of her neck and pulled her back towards me. The kiss was sweet and simple but really nice. The piercings threw me for a loop. I've never kissed a girl with snake bites before. But then again I've never met a girl with snake bites before. It's different. But like everything else about her. Different in a good way. I let her go and she pulled away from me. She smiled up at me biting her lip.
