Chapter 8
Adrianna's point of view
Embry was true to his word, Emily only lived a few minutes away from the beach. She has a nice little cottage in the forest and it looks very friendly and warm.
"Come on in," Embry says. Corey and I follow Embry into the house and see the same people from yesterday at he beach but not everyone.
"Hey Adrianna," Seth greets me.
"Hi," I say.
"Who are you two lovely girls?" Emily's voice asks.
"It's me, Adrianna and her sister Corey," Embry says and Emily comes out from the corner.
"Oh hello dears, are you hungry?" she asks and we nod our heads. Emily smiles and brings us into the kitchen. She has enough food to feed an army but I've seen more food. We would have so much food on Mystical Island because the boys who were wolves would eat so much food. The girl wolves would eat a lot too but not as much.
"Wow!" Corey says.
"Well these boys eat a lot," Emily says smiling. We eat breakfast and talk with Emily while the boys talked about something for work.
After breakfast Corey and I left with Embry walking us home.
"So where were you?" Embry asks.
"I ran to friend's house in Forks, we talked and I fell asleep; when I woke up I ran back here as fast as I could," I say which is a total lie. I know Corey knew I was lying but Embry looked like he didn't believe me either, but said nothing.
"Well thanks for walking us home and helping my sister," I say to Embry as we arrive at our house. Corey goes inside as I talk with Embry.
"No problem, but just don't run off, you really scared your sister," he says.
"Ya I know, I didn't mean to," I say.
"Well I'll see ya around," he says running into the woods. I go inside and into the living room where my tearful grandmother and wondering sister are waiting for me.
"Adrianna!" grandma says getting up and hugging me.
"I'm sorry grandma, I fell asleep and didn't think," I say.
"Where did you go, Texas?" Corey asks.
"No I went up to Canada and fell asleep somewhere and when I woke up I ran back home," I say still lying but if I told them where I was they would be mad. We're never to go back to the Island, I didn't mean to I just ended up there.
"It's alright but next time please just come home!" grandma says.
"I will," I say.
"Good now have you two eaten?" she asks.
"Yes we went to a friends," I say.
"Alright well I have to get going but please just stay in the house today," she says.
"Okay, when will you get back?" I ask.
"In an hour," she says and leaves.
"I'm going to bed," Corey says going to her room. I walk up to my room and get on my laptop and search "Quileute legends". I re-read all the legends again and come across the word imprint. I read the meaning and it's when a wolf looks into that persons eyes for the first time they imprint. They're your soul mate, it's like love at first sight. The description says it's like a blind man seeing the sun for the first time, they're your world now and you will do anything for them. Hmm I wonder if I have imprinted yet? I finish reading the legends and then go through all the pictures I took from the island.
Embry's point of view
When I left Adrianna and went into the woods I phased looking around her house outside. I found her room and saw that see was on her laptop searching the Quileute legends. She looked to be deep in thought and then shut the computer. She pulled out some pictures from her bag and looked at them. I can't see the pictures but I can see what they do to her. She sheds a few tears, laughs, smiles and frowns at them. When she looks at one she gasps, what is she looking at?
Adrianna's point of view
When I go through the pictures I laugh, smile, cry, and frown at them. When I get to one I gasp. It's a picture of me when I was little and a boy. He has black hair, russet skin, and dark brown eyes. I flip the picture over and read the description. It says: Adrianna White,2, and Jacob Black,3, 02-11-1993. Best buds and cousins! :)
Oh my gosh! Jacob could be my cousin! That's why he looks so familiar. I hear the front door open and run downstairs to the kitchen.
"Grandma can you tell me about imprinting?" I ask.
"Sure, what do you want to know?" she asks.
"Tell me everything!" I say. She tells me that my great-grandmother and grandfather were both shape shifters and both imprinted on each other. She told me that grandpa didn't imprint on her but that they were went to be, just like mom and dad. She said that no one in our family has imprinted since my great grandparents. She told me what imprinting is like and that you can't live without your imprint.
"Grandma, do you know anything about our other relatives, the Black family?" I ask.
"Well not much but one time when you were little you, your brother and parents went to see one of your cousins, Jacob Black I think," she says.
"Do you know where he lived?" I ask.
"I think he lived here in La Push, but I'm not sure," she says.
"Oh well thanks," I say.
"Sweetheart are you alright?" she asks.
"Fine I just need some fresh air," I say.
"Don't go to far," she says and I nod walking out of the door.
