A/N: I'm really, really, really sorry for the delay in posting. I wanted to finish this over Christmas break (instead of revising for my a-level exams) but being the complete div that I am I had put my book in a bizarre place and couldn't find it the worst part being I kept finding my other fanfics and getting excited because they are all written in identical books :S
Chapter 23
I woke up on Monday morning with a grin on my face. I got to see Ruthie today.
I showered, dressed and left the house with my school stuff, before my mum was even out of bed.
It took me five minutes to walk to her house. I could have gone quicker but my leg still hadn't healed properly, making it difficult to walk.
Paul looked as if he had just rolled out of bed when he opened the door. He showed me into their kitchen and went back upstairs, without saying anything to me. I guessed he wasn't a morning person.
I heard him knock on a door, "Embry's here," he groaned. Then I heard a door shut, water start running and someone making their way downstairs, towards where I was sat.
Ruthie appeared in the door way wearing red skinny jeans and a purple hoodie. Her hair was in a messy ponytail and her face was blank, showing no emotion.
She waved and I waved back, feeling slightly awkward.
She disappeared, to reappear moments later with a pen and a notebook, which the first page read "Good morning, Allison will be here in a minute. She's normally late."
"Ok." I said, before she started writing again.
She showed me the notebook which now read, "Have you had breakfast? You read really slowly."
"Yeah I have eaten, and I know I read slowly," I said as Paul came down the stairs saying "See you later," before speeding out the door, leaving it open for Allison Uley to walk in.
"Morning Ruthie," she said before looking at me, "You must be Embry, I'm Allison."
A/N: you can now follow Ruthie's blog... which I shall be updating with her POV for this chapter as soon as I've posted this, at seenandneverheard[DOT]tumblr[DOT]com
