Chapter 16

Ruthie's blog

I'm sorry for the wait for me to update this blog. I haven't really got a reason for not updating and for this I am very sorry.

I haven't seen Embry since my last entry and I have been worried sick. Is that bad? I mean, I have only met him once.

I keep think that Paul might have said something to make him stay away from me; Paul can be quite intimidating when he wants to be.

He hasn't even walked past the house on his way to school. I have to keep telling myself that he's just ill, that he's just caught the flu, or a bad cold, or twisted his ankle on some ice. But I cant help thinking that Paul hurt him, even though Sam said that he was fine.

I want him to hug me again. Maybe I could hug him back this time. He was so warm and comforting. He managed to calm me down, just by hugging me. He seemed to know exactly what to do.

I hope he's ok. I keep daydreaming about hugging him, falling asleep in his arms or just talking to him about random nonsense. Like I can with Paul and Sam.

In other news, Rachel stayed the night here. Dad made her share a room with me. We watched 'The Little Mermaid' and 'The Fox and The Hound'. By the end of both films we were both smiling and yawning. She said that she would teach me how to do my make-up, because I suck at it. I like her. I really hope her and Paul don't split up.

I still haven't been able to talk to her though, which is frustrating because I really want to. Instead she gave me her cell phone number and we texted until we fell asleep, and then again in the morning, at breakfast, which made Paul laugh. I really do like her, she's smart, funny and makes Paul happy.

I have news on our website: we are adding a forum and messaging system. We have nearly 500,000 poems alone and nearing 2,000,000 pieces of artwork. The bad news is that there's no way I can look through all of it, and not all of it will be able to go up. The gallery will choose some; there will be a voting system for you guys to choose your favourites and then will shall choose a few more on a pulling out of the hat basis. I love every piece I have seen so far, and I really wish all of them could be displayed and I will keep checking out your art work.

I love you guys to the moon and back,

Ruthie.

A/N- hehe... I wonder what happens next
