Chapter twenty three – Ellie
I walked downstairs and saw Paul staring at me. "What?" I asked.
"What did you and Brady get up to today?" he asked.
"Nothing much. Homework." I smiled.
"What else?" he asked.
"What makes you think something else happened?" I asked.
"You are smiling like an idiot." Paul laughed.
"If I told you, you might get mad." I mumbled.
He shrugged and looked in the fridge. "So you two finally kissed then." It wasn't a question.
I looked at him. "How did you know?"
"It was just a guess but thanks for confirming it. I just need to kill him now." Paul said.
"Don't." I begged.
"Fine." he sighed playfully. "How much homework did you get done?"
I shrugged. "What are you guys hiding from me?" I asked.
Paul froze. Slowly, he turned to look at me. "We aren't hiding anything Ellie."
He is such a liar.
"I know you are lying Paul but will you tell me? Not now but soon?" I asked.
He sighed and said, "Yes." and then walked away.
I sighed and sat down at the kitchen table. I really wanted to know what it was. Whatever it was, it was keeping the pack on edge and I didn't like it.
I looked down at my wrists. The scars were fading but they would never be completely gone. With the help from the pack, I stopped cutting myself. They have helped me through loads.
I still hadn't told my parents yet but to be honest I don't think they gave a crap. They hadn't been home in weeks but I wasn't worried and neither was Paul. We could survive without them.
My phone started vibrating. I answered it. "Hello?"
"Ellie! We are at the beach do you want to come?" I heard Hannah ask.
Hannah, Luke, Mica and Jonas knew what happened. Hannah couldn't believe I didn't tell her, Mica was really supportive and Luke and Jonas wanted to kill Cain.
We all started hanging around with Brady, Collin and Seth at school now, so Marcus, Hannah, Mica, Luke and Jonas was friends again. I had started to be really good friends with Collin and Seth. I was becoming really good friends with everyone in the pack. And plus I was becoming my old self again.
"Yeah, I'll be over now. Is Marcus there?" I asked.
"Yeah! See you in a few!" I hung up.
I grabbed my converses and put them on. "I'm going to the beach!" I shouted to Paul. I walked out before I heard him answer and walked to the beach.
When I arrived, I got tackled to the ground. I looked up and saw Hannah grinning at me. "Get off me fat arse." I grumbled.
She laughed and pulled me up. "It's nice to see you too."
I mumbled something unintelligent and walked further on to the beach. I saw Marcus swimming in the sea with, no surprise, Ashleigh.
Marcus spends most of his time with Ashleigh, she is like his sister at the moment. Emily and Sam adopted Ashleigh because they still couldn't find her parents.
"Who is that girl?" Jonas asked.
I looked at him. "Ashleigh Uley. She is like a sister to Marcus." I said.
"Oh okay." he mumbled.
"Hey! Where's my hug?" I asked.
He laughed and pulled me into a hug. "So what have you been up to?" Mica asked, taking Jonas' hand.
"Oh my god! You are not going to believe it!" I screamed.
"What?" they asked.
"Brady and I kissed." I smiled.
Mica and Hannah screamed and hugged me. "I guess I should threaten him." Marcus joked.
I laughed.
Brady –
I needed to tell Ellie what was going on. But most important I needed to ask her if she wanted to be my girlfriend. And then I would tell her what's going on. The rest of the pack didn't want her to know and yeah I guess they have a point but she needs to know. She has the right to know.
I grabbed my phone and called Ellie. On the second ring she answered, "Brady!"
I laughed. "Where are you?" I asked.
"At the beach. Want to come?" she asked.
"Yeah. I'll be there in a few minutes." I said.
We hung up and I walked to the beach. I saw Marcus, Ashleigh, Jonas, Mica, Luke, Hannah and Ellie. I smiled when I saw her and walked over to them. They were sitting on the sand talking.
"Ellie, can I have a word?" I asked.
She looked at me and nodded. We walked into the forest a little, so no one could hear us.
"So what's up?" Ellie asked.
"Umm, Ellie, would you like to be my, umm, girlfriend?" I asked. I was nervous, she was too perfect for me.
Ellie smiled and threw her arms around my neck. I wrapped my arms around her waist and she kissed me. "A million times yes." she said, kissing me again.
"There's also something else." I whispered.
"What?" Ellie asked, not letting go of me. I looked at the floor. "Is it about what you guys are keeping from me?" she asked.
I nodded and looked back at her. "Ellie, you can't tell the guys I told you." she nodded. I took a deep breath and said, "I think you should know that…"
So what did you guys think? Please review.
