Chapter 47

I breathed in the La Push air and sighed. It's official. I was officially back. No one knew that I was coming back except for Emily, Leah and Kim who all promised to keep it a secret. I was excited to see them and my brother. I missed him. And hell I missed Paul and Embry and others as well.

This Summer I had time to think. I mean I really had time to think and I did. I was different.

Instead of dark chocolate hair I dyed it. Chestnut brown hair with light caramel highlights at the end. I even got it cut so that it was cut above my chest but longer than my shoulders. Somewhere in the middle. I liked it. It was change.

There was more. I had convinced Josh to let me get a tattoo and another piercing. I had my belly button now pierced and I liked it. At first I had been scared but after getting it I was fine. I couldn't wait for Kim to see it, she would flip. My tattoo was placed on my wrist of three birds flying and the word Faith, was by it. I liked it and thought that it was perfect.

"Are you ready for this?" Josh asked me as he pulled up in front of my house. I nodded. Yeah. I was ready. I had my shades on everything so it was perfect. I grabbed my bag off of the floor and a left walking up the front door. I used my key to open it.

Smells like Emily's cooking.

It is good to be home.

You are so right.

I grinned to myself. It felt absolutely great to be home. I missed being here. Besides I was glad that I had time to catch up with my family and friends before school started again.

I could feel Josh watching me the whole entire time as if I might have a break down or something. Nope. I knew my limits and I knew what I was doing.

I couldn't hide. I had hid all summer and I was done with that. It was time to face the music.

As I took a few more steps into the house I relaxed and started towards the kitchen. Emily had her back to me so I was guessing she hadn't even heard me enter the house.

"Some things never change." I spoke making my presence known. Emily spun around and did a little eep before running to hug me. I hugged her back smiling.

"Oh my god look at you," she spoke taking my face in between her hands. "How are you?" She asked quietly after a few seconds went by.

"Better." Going away for the summer was definitely what I needed. Josh decided to come in at that exact moment.

"Josh."

"Emily."

You could tell that there was some tension but I chose to ignore it. "Where is my dumb brother?" I asked smirking.

"Last time I checked I was smarter then you," Sam had come in front the backyard and I grinned going over and hugging him. I could see from the screen door that Paul, Embry and Jared were with him. My grin became even wider when I connected eyes with Paul. I missed him. He had turn into a really good friend of mine.

I let go of Sam and ran outside before Paul could come in. "Well if it isn't Piper Uley."

"In the flesh."

"It's been boring without you."

"Is that your way of saying how much you missed me?" I wondered smirking walking back into the house with the boys in tow. I went over to the fridge and grabbed a drink.

"I didn't know you were coming back today," Embry commented.

"Yeah me either." Sam crossed his arms and I shrugged. "Maybe that's because I didn't want you to know," I took a sip of my drink when I said this giving Sam the mystery eyes.

"Kim will be glad to know that your back." Jared soon said.

"How has she been?"

"She missed you."

I felt bad for leaving my best friend but I knew that Kim understood why I left. Besides we would have plenty of time to catch up now. We had about a week left of summer, something like that and then school started.

Fuck!

This was going to be Kim's senior year and her last summer I guess before college and I had been gone. I felt really bad now. Even though I knew Kim probably didn't mind I still couldn't help the way I felt.

"So did you do anything crazy over the summer?" Embry wondered and I locked eyes with Josh for a second.

"Nothing to bad."

"What does that mean?"

I rolled my eyes. "Sam, don't use that authoritative tone. I didn't do anything to crazy." I was not going to tell him about the tattoo or belly button piercing, yet.

"Did you let her do something stupid?" Sam's question was directed at Josh, I knew that much. I sighed. I really did not want to hear this.

"Alright everyone get out!" Emily suddenly announced stopping whatever argument or fight that might have occurred before it even started. . "Well everyone except for Piper."

"What do you mean get out?" Sam questioned.

"It's girls night tonight. So all of you have got to go."

"And where am I supposed to sleep? Wait, did you know that she was coming back?" It was obvious from Sam's tone that he was slightly annoyed. "I have already arranged that. Your staying at Old Quil's tonight."

I could not help but let out a laugh at this. Ha!

"Piper, I set your bags in your room." I nodded at Josh. Even though we did spend the summer together didn't mean that we were in this now father/daughter relationship because we weren't anywhere near that. It was more of the summer where I got to know my father.

"Alright I am leaving. Piper I will call you."

"Alright."

"Sam."

"Josh."

"Men," I muttered causing Paul to snicker and Sam to glare over at me. Shit. I had been used to getting away with things like that over the summer.

"Well I am going upstairs to go and get a nap in before girls night happens." I tossed a grin over at Emily. "See you tomorrow Sam, have fun with Old Quil."

He continued to scowl at me and I let out a loud laugh leaving and going upstairs to my room. I looked around. It was just the way that I had left it, I would have to change that. This room was a reminder of the old me. I was a different person now, therefor I was going to make some changes to my bedroom.

Sighing I closed my door and walked past my luggage and curled up on my bed. A nice nap would do. Girls night was tonight, that would definitely need my full attention.

"Can we wake her up please?"

"Leave her alone, Corale." Carole?

"Why? She's been gone all damn summer so the least she could do is be awake when the party get's here."

"Watch your mouth."

"What are you my mother?" I found myself smirking even though I was in a way still asleep. That was so Carole.

"She's totally awake, Lilly. Don't you see her smirking." I heard Carole say. Great. Now I had no choice but to wake up. I had been caught. Red handed.

"Pipes, you awake?" I heard Lilly's voice and smirked at the nick name that she had gave me a long time ago but she barley used it anymore.

"No," I moaned still tired.

"Told ya." I popped my eyes opened and stared at the two girls in front of me.

"When did you get here?"

"A little while ago. Emily said that you were up here." Lilly told us. "Nice room by the way."

"Well I will be redecorating soon."

"Can I help?"

"Of course. Lilly Billy."

Lilly rolled her eyes. "I hate that name."

"Well you did call me Pipes."

Lilly huffed and Carole spoke up. "I don't appreciate you leaving for the whole entire summer and not saying good bye to me."

"Sorry. Where is your sister?"

"Which one?" She smirked.

"You know which one."

"Right here," I watched Kim enter my bedroom and plop down on my bed to hug me.

"I missed you."

"I missed you too," Kim said giving me another hug.

"Wow, I feel like chopped liver."

I rolled my eyes. "Come here Leah." She bent down to hug me. I was glad Emily had arranged this whole sleepover thing. I was glad to have Kim, Leah, Emily and the twins here to spend time with me on my first night back.

"Let's party!" Carole grinned.

"What do you know about partying?" Leah asked her grinning.

"You'd be surprised Leah." Oh this was gonna be a good night.

Just wondering did anyone watch the Teen Choice Awards? If so what were your favorite parts and who were you excited to see? I have to say I was so excited that Pretty Little Liars won all of their nominations literally one of my favorite TV shows and the whole cast looked amazing especially Shay Mitchell. Anyways let me know what your favorite parts were.

I hope that you enjoyed this chapter.

Being honest I did not write much because I had so many freaking summer homework assignments, so I hope some of you are able to sympathize with me on that. I mean seriously who wants to do homework over the summer?
