Annalee POV
It was monday afternoon and I was currently alone In the dance studio. We had been informed at in June there will be a showcasing performance done for the New students. The subjects that will be preforming in this showcase is, piano, dance, singing, guitar and violin. Of course the three subjects I was doing had to come up, which meant I had to work extra hard. Of course it was only mid October and I had 8 months, but with getting time off at Christmas and Easter I had more like 6months, and I had other things to concentrate on too, so getting a head start wouldn't hurt anyone. While I was trying to work some sort of routine out in my head I could help but let my mind drift off back to Saturday, and I seriously could not wipe the smile off my face.
Flashback
After dropping nina off I drove back to school and took a deep breath before heading upstairs. In our common room outside the doors to everyone's bedrooms there were couches, pool table,TV just a hang out area really. When I walked in Kaine was sat alone going through some papers, he looked up and smiled at me, but I could respond.
"Did you sister get back alright?" I nodded, gulping a little.
"Are you alright luv?" He asked standing up.
"Yeah- actually no I'm n-not" he came over to me looking concerned.
"What's wrong?" He took one of my hands in his and I just stared down at it.
"Tell me what this is" he raised an eyebrow to me.
"What?"
"This. The flirting with me, holding my hand, telling me you only have eyes for one. Tell me what it is Kaine. I've had my heart stamped on before and I won't let it happen again" I tired to let go of his hand but he tightened his grip. Of course being half vampire I could easily of got out of his hold and proberly broken his hand while I was at it, but I didn't want to hurt him.
"Annalee, I never want to hurt you. I actually really like you" I looked up from our hands and stared at him.
"You- you do?" He nodded and brushes a loose curl behind my ear.
"I've never met anyone like you before annalee. Your special" I smiled and a small tear fell down my face. But I could help think to myself 'you have no idea'
"And well I wasn't really planning on doing it like this but if you would like. I'd love to make you my girlfriend" I smiled.
"So what do you say luv?" He ran his other hand over my cheek and I leaned into his touch and nodded.
"Okay" I whispered and he smiled and pulled me into his chest. I looked up and he smiled down at me and softly pressed his lips to mine. I was so happy for the first time in I can't remember.
Flashback over.
I shook my head trying to concentrate on the task in hand and leaned against the bars looking into the large mirrors that crossed the back wall. When i focused I seen Kaine leaning against the two large double doors opposite the mirrors. He smiled at me and I turned around and leaned against the bars.
"Can I help you?" I asked and he smiled.
"Just come to find out where you were. Eliza said class finished two hours ago" I nodded.
"Just working on some stuff you know" he nodded and came into the room more.
"Anything I can help with?" He asked and I snorted a laugh.
"I doubt it, you don't do dance" he smiled.
"Hold on luv" he took his cellphone out of his pocket and went over to the large speakers in the corner of the room. He took the wire out of it and plugged it onto his cell phone. After a couple of moments the song 'thinking out loud by ed sheeran' started playing into the room. God he really likes ed sheeran doesn't he! I thought to myself. He smiled and pulled his hoodie over his head, raising his tank a little revealing his abs. Mmm.
"What are you doing?" I asked as he walked over to me.
"Helping" he replied I shook my head and turned away but he caught my hand and pulled me back so I was flush against him. He took one step back and then forward again. I couldn't help the gasp that escaped my throat.
"You can dance?" I asked a little dazed, he chuckled.
"There's a lot of things you don't know about me luv" I smiled and lifted his hand from my waist into mine and lifted his chin to meet my eyes, his loving eyes. As we danced I could help but wonder why he had never told me he could dance like this. And why he hadn't decided to major in it, because I may be a little bias but he was frigging good! When our faces got close all I wanted to do was jump on him, but it was enjoying dancing with him too much to let my urges take over.
Jett POV
As we reached New York both myself and embry phased back. We had out clothes tied around our legs, just sweats and a t-shirt and some sneakers of course. We changed quickly and headed over to annalees school.
"Do you think she's going to freak out?" Embry asked as we walked.
"Proberly, are you going to tell her?" He looked over at me blankly.
"About the imprint idiot!"
"Oh.. Um I don't know. Maybe. It depends how she is with me" I nodded, fair enough. At least he was thinking about telling her. When we got to the school embry looked a little star stuck.
"I know man it's big huh" he nodded slowly and I dragged him inside. I took in the scents trying to scent out my sister.
"Well" embry said looking inpatient.
"Give me a damn minute!" I growled, eventually I found her scent. It was south, so I followed it with embry. Eventually after many corridors we found two large double doors and annalees scent was crazy strong.
"She's in there I think" embry looked at me and looked scared.
"Dude, she's going to be cool just stay calm" he nodded and I pushed the slightly ajar door open, there was music playing inside and then I saw annalee dancing, I thought she was alone at first until she ran into the arms of this dude. Mm I remember his face, where when was it... Oh damn it's the British guy.
"Embry" I whispered but he was just watching annalee dance with that guy. They looked so happy. Last time I'd spoke to mom about her she didn't mention anything about annalee and him, but things had obviously taken a turn for the better in annalees case because she currently had her legs wrapped around his waist as he spun her around. And then when he pulled her up into his arms and there faces were almost touching, oh god this was uncomfortable for me to watch, god knows how embry feels. They did kind of look good dancing together though. When they finished they were both lying on the floor starring at each other. So I thought I better step in before this turned into a full blown make out session and embry phased and trying to rip the poor guys head off. I stepped into the doorway and clapped my hands, annalee jumped up startled and stared wide eyed at me. Before running and jumping into my arms and wrapped her arms and legs around me.
"Oh my god! What the hell" she said clinging to me.
"I missed you sis" he told her with my head buried in her hair.
"I missed you too jett" she had tears in her eyes and she kissed both of my cheeks.
"Did you come here alone?" she asked, and I shook my head slowly. Before embry came through the door. I felt annalees heart increase against my chest. I lowered her down and she had her face pressed against my chest. I leaned down and kissed her hair.
"Your okay" I whispered and she nodded before pulling away, I moved so they were face to face.
"Hi" she whispered to him and he smiled at her.
"Hey" she took a deep breath and turned around and walked back over to the guy standing in the room looking confused.
"Kaine you remember my brother right?" Kaine that was right!
"Yeah of course" I went over and shook his hand.
"And that" annalee said pointing at embry.
"Is... One of my oldest friends, from back home" embry came over and shook his hand while annalee stayed tucked under his arm.
"Embry" embry introduced himself and it was like Kaine clicked on who this suddenly was.
"Ah... So your the famous embry" embry looked nervous, casting a glance to annalee before nodding.
"So, you want to head upstairs?" Annalee asked and I nodded. I stayed back to talk to annalee a little on the way up.
"So what's the deal with you and mr Britain?" I asked and she rolled her eyes.
"What do you think?" I nodded.
"I think he's your boyfriend" annalee shrugged smiling.
"Maybe" I laughed and nodded.
"What about everything at that happened with you know who" I said motioning In front of us towards embry.
"He hurt me jett. He made me think that we had something more than just a friendship, and then when I... Kissed him, he just froze like oh my god what the hell his she doing! After that he didn't make any attempt to speak to me at all! God I felt like my heart had been ripped out and stamped on. I get that he just wants us to be friends but what friend doesn't even pick up the phone to call or text someone when they move a thousand miles away huh" I nodded as she laid her heart out on the table to me, I knew embry would be able to hear us, and annalee knew he would too. I think that's why she was being so honest right now.
"And he's treating you good?" I asked motioning over to Kaine. She nodded smiling.
"Yeah, I mean it's fairly new. But he's great, really sweet and actually wants a relationship with me so that's more than last time I guess" I laughed lightly, it killed me knowing that my sister was completely wrong and embry was complete and totally in love with her. When we reached the door to enter her dorm and could hear someone sounding very ticked off. Annalee sighed and opened the door.
"Jesus cal will you just get the damn hint! I just want us to be friends" the girl snapped standing up from the couch.
"But Eliza-"
"No!" She snapped, he stood up and grabbed her hand.
"Let me go" she said trying to act calm.
"Eliza please, we could have something special"
"Let me go" she warned again but he didn't. Annalee and Kaine rushed forward, annalee pulled Eliza back and Kaine stepped In front of Callum, him I remember.
"You ok?" Annalee asked her and she nodded.
"Come on cal, let's go" Kaine ordered Callum to go towards there room, he turned around and pecked annalees lips before following Callum in. When that happened I think I actually heard embrys heart break.
"Hey is there anything-" I was about to ask if we could help with as I looked over to my sister consoling the girl Eliza, who I assumed was her roommate, but then we met eyes and my whole world shifted. This girl was now my gravity. I was being held to the earth by her and only her. I couldn't take my eyes away from her as she could take her eyes off me either. I seen her gulp.
"Who- who's that?" Eliza said to nobody specifically just starring at me.
"That's my brother" annalee said softly, but then it was like she understood what just happened.
"Jett" annalee said hurrying over to me, I was still staring at Eliza.
"Embry, can you talk to Eliza for a moment for me?" Annalee asked, embry nodded and walked over to Eliza, taking her out of my eyesight.
"Jett did you just imprint on her?" Annalee hissed, I looked down at my sister and blinked a few times.
"Um I er.. Yeah I think I did" annalee sighed and leaned her head on my chest.
"Fan-fucking-tastic" she muttered to herself.
"Annalee" she shook her head.
"No. No just go. Go on. She deserves to know you, she lucky to have a great guy like you" I smiled and went over to Eliza who looked less than interested in whatever embry was saying, but when she seen me her eyes picked up.
"I'm jett" I said sitting down next to her.
"I'm Eliza" I smiled.
"I like your name" she blushed.
"I never really liked it growing up"
"It's beautiful, suites you" she blushed again and smiled.
"Come on embry, let's give these two some space" annalee said, walking over to her bedroom door. I gave embry a warning glance before they went in and closed the door behind them.
"So your annalees brother?" I nodded.
"And your annalees roommate" she nodded and smiled.
"Is it wired that suddenly I feel like I really like you and want to get to know you?" I shook my head no.
"No not at all, because I feel exactly the same" she smiled. I spent most of that night chatting with Eliza, she really was amazing, and she only lived in port Angeles which was fantastic! She was doing singing and dancing here. She prefers to be called Liza instead of Eliza, because she thinks Eliza sounds too old fashioned but I liked it, it suited her. She's 18years old, lives with her mom and younger brother who was in his senior year of high school. She doesn't see very much of her dad but she doesn't really like him. After a couple of hours I felt like I really knew this girl. I was pulled out of my conversation with Liza when annalee came out of her bedroom.
"Jett, moms on the phone and she's pissed" I gulped and smiled at Eliza.
"I'll be right back" she nodded and I walked over to annalee.
"Did you tell her?" She shook her head no. I took the phone and took a deep breath.
'Hey mom'
'Dont hey mom me! Why the hell are you in New York! And why the hell didn't you tell me you were going!' I could hear my father in the background trying to calm her down but it wasn't working.
'I came to see my baby sister, listen mom something's happened..'
'With annalee and embry?'
'No... But something along those lines' she didn't respond for a few minutes but I could hear my dad muttering something, he could obviously hear what I was saying.
'Who did you imprint on?' She asked quietly. God that women was good.
'Annalees room mate, Eliza' she let out a shaky breath.
'Okay... Just stay there tonight. I don't want you running home when your tired. In the morning say goodbye to Eliza, get some sort of contact details so you can stay In touch and we will discuss it then ok'
'Yes ma'am' she sighed
'I love you jett, stay safe. I'll see you soon'
'Love you too mom. And I will' I hung up the phone and went into annalees room to hand it too her. She was lying on her bed, reading a book and embry was sat on the couch just doing nothing.
"Embry we'll set back off tomorrow morning" he nodded "have you two settled your differences?" I asked annalees eyes shot to me and she sighed.
"Yeah sorta"
"And" I pushed. I could feel embrys eyes burning in my head.
"And nothing jett! Jeez go outside and play happy with your imprint ok" she snapped and switched her side light off and got under her covers. Something was pissing her off for sure.
"Okay" I said quietly and left the room again to talk to Eliza.
"So when are you going home?" She asked.
"Tomorrow" she looked a little sad.
"But we can keep In touch? I know it's early but I really like you" she smiled and nodded.
"Sure that would be great" she yawned and I noticed the time it was midnight already, where had the time gone!
"Come on, you need sleep" she nodded and we headed Into her room. She grabbed some pyjamas and headed towards the bathroom before turning around.
"You can sleep in jess's bed if you want? She's gone home for the week, family loss" I smiled and nodded.
"You good embry?" I asked.
"Yeah dude" I nodded and I saw annalee roll over and burry her head over the covers. I lay onto of the bed, and waited for Eliza to come out of the bathroom, the room was dark but the light from the bathroom easily shown me that she was wearing some sleep shorts and a girl flimsy tank. Damn.
"Goodnight everyone" she said, we all replied the same before she climbed it into bed and we fell asleep.
aww yey Im so happy for jett! He's imprinted on Eliza, and I really like her. I can't wait to do a POV for her. Poor embry, all the way to New York to find out his imprint has a boyfriend damn poor kid. But things will get better I swear it won't always be doom and gloom for him. And can I just say Ive wanted to write about that dance between annalee and Kaine for so long I was so excited to write this chapter. I kind of envisioned there dance being kind of like the music video for the song because that is amazing. I pictured annalee and kaines dance beginning at 0.31 seconds in and when jett and embry turn up it's around 2minutes 35seconds in. oh so exciting.
see you soon
