Several hours later, the party had all but ended. Emily had decided to order pizzas instead of cooking, and Seth and Sam had decorated the place. Layla smiled. They barely knew her, yet they have treated her like family. Maybe La Push wasn't that bad after all.
Layla walked out of Sam and Emily's after thanking them over and over again for such an amazing party. Leah called out and jogged to catch Layla.
"So, you and Embry, huh?" Leah asked. "Tell me everything. I'm going through such a freaking dry spell it's not even funny."
"What is it with everyone around here? Do all of you seriously not have like, a best friend to help you through this with?" Layla asked.
"Are you kidding me? Do you know how awkward that would be?" Leah said.
"Not awkward. Hell, my best friend is gay and we help each other out. We learned how to kiss from each other and how to give head." Layla said, speaking of Kai.
"He's gay and you two did that?" Leah asked, stunned.
"Yeah. What are best friends for?" Layla replied.
"Certainly not that. Not for me, anyway." Leah said.
"Oh hell. Wait until I get high around you. I get, like, so freaking horny and hump whoever is closest." Layla muttered.
"Speaking of bacon." Leah said. "Heard you and Embry got it on. Sam and them said they could hear you clearly from their house to First Beach!"
"Yeah, I can get a bit loud." Layla said, trying not to smile. "But he was so good! Like, that's the biggest I've ever seen. And been on. And it was so good!"
"Until it was ruined. Jeez. What a block." Leah said.
"Preach it, sister." Layla muttered. "So...anyone special on the rez you're with?"
"Yeah, no. The last one was several years ago. Sam. He, uh...he met Emily, who's my cousin, and dumped me for her." Leah said.
"For real? And you didn't castrate him?" Layla asked, incredulous.
"He said it was true love." Leah shrugged.
"Girl, we so need to get you laid." Layla said, thinking. "Are there any clubs around here?"
"I'm not sleeping with a stranger! And definitely none of the guys around here would even get near me because of Sam." Leah said.
"Why?" Layla asked.
"He's basically told them I'm off limits." Leah replied.
"Okay, he's not even with you, so why are you letting him control who you do and do not sleep with?" Layla asked.
"The guys here don't even look at me that way because he told them not to." Leah said.
"Oh, we're going to fix that. Tell me who you want and I'll find out if they want a piece of that ass." Layla said.
Leah bit her lip and looked around. "Give me your phone and I'll type it out. There's no way I'm saying it out loud." she said.
Layla fished her phone from her purse and handed it to Leah. Leah pulled up an empty text message and typed in the name.
Layla looked and grinned big.
Ah. Jake. She could so make this work.
"Come to my house. We're going to make you look so, so hot and he just won't even be able to resist you." Layla said, pulling Leah with her.
Layla grinned and sat Leah on her bed, grabbing her makeup kits and heating up the curlers.
"Trust me. And don't move." Layla instructed.
Three hours later, Layla had finished putting makeup on Leah, curling her hair, and convincing her to put on one of Layla's more revealing outfits.
"This is too short! I'm way taller than you and this is, like, I can't do this!" Leah whined.
"Girl, if I had your legs I would go everywhere in this outfit." Layla said.
Layla put the finishing touches on Leah, spritzing her with Love Spell. By that time, it was early evening.
"First thing, we're going to stop by Sam and Emily's because I'm going to say my bracelet came off and I have to find it. He's going to see exactly what he gave up. Then we're going to walk by Jake's garage and I'm going to ask him if him and Embry will put together my bed and the poles for my clothes. He's going to see you and pop, like, such a boner that it'll probably give you a black eye." Layla said.
"Jesus." Leah said. She really did have this planned out.
"Then, we're going to head out to a great club and dance and grind and have fun. We'll come back and by that time, they should be finished. A sweaty, shirtless Jake..." Layla drawled out. "Then we'll invite him and Embry to First Beach, smoke a little, or a lot, and mmm."
"I've never smoked!" Leah said.
"You won't be able to say that after tonight. You probably won't be able to walk after Jake gets a hold of you." Layla said, grinning big.
Layla walked out the door with her purse and keys and waited for Leah to get in the passenger seat before driving the short distance to Sam's. Emily was out teaching crafts at the children's center on the rez. Layla got out and called out.
"Leah, look out here. I know I dropped my bracelet somewhere!" she said.
Leah took a deep breath and nodded, getting out of the Escalade. Layla walked in and greeted Sam. "Leah, tell me if you find it!" she yelled out the door.
"Find what?" Sam asked.
"My bracelet. I lost it somewhere between here and my house. Leah and I turned the house upside down but couldn't find it." Layla said, her tone sad.
Sam walked out the door and his jaw dropped when he caught sight of Leah bent over, looking in the Escalade. Layla turned and smirked, seeing Sam watch Leah's every move.
A few moments later, she pulled a bracelet from her bra and walked outside to stand beside Sam. "I found it!" she called out.
Leah turned and smiled like Layla showed her. Layla walked down the steps then turned to face Sam. "Does she not look totally gorgeous? She is going to get laid tonight. I can feel it." she said, going out to the Escalade.
Sam's eyes narrowed and he growled.
Layla got in and drove to Jake's garage and put the vehicle in park, and her and Leah stepped out. Layla walked into the garage while Leah leaned against the Escalade.
"Jakey!" Layla called out. "Come out here, please! If I tried walking through there, I'd get grease all over my dress and that is so not happening!"
Jake, Seth, and Embry all came out, stopping in their tracks. Jake's eyes went from Layla to Leah and froze.
"Do we not look totally hot?" Layla asked of no one in particular.
"You can't say that about my sister!" Seth called out. "She's my sister!" he whined.
"Seth...honey, darling...your sister is hot as hell." Layla said, grinning. "Don't you think so, Jake?"
Jake could only nod.
"Anyway, I came here to ask you guys for help. I'll pay you each $200 if you all will put the furniture and the poles up for me tonight." Layla offered.
"I'll do it, but you don't have to pay." Embry said.
"Speak for yourself. I'll do it and I'll be glad to get paid." Seth said.
Layla smiled and pulled out six 100 dollar bills and gave 2 to each of the guys. "We'll see you all later!" she called out, heading back to the Escalade.
Leah got into the passenger seat and Layla took off. "Did you see Jake? He looked like he was ready to jump you!" Layla said, grinning.
"Are you serious?" Leah asked.
"Oh, yeah. And Sam? You could see the look of regret on his face mixed with, like, totally wanting to nail you against the Escalade." Layla said.
Leah smiled in triumph. "Now he saw exactly what he was missing." she said.
"Exactly. Seriously though, with the way Jake looked at you was like, he could have pounded concrete to dust. You can totally tell he is hung, too." Layla said.
Leah tried to hide a smile, but failed. "I'm so glad you came here." she said.
Review? Please?
