Chapter Text
Standing there I stared down from the cliff, all I had to do was jump. Then I could forget, it would hurt, but would I die?
“Seth what the hell are you doing?”
Snapping my head around, I saw my sister, Leah, jogging toward me. Damn, there is no way I can do this now.
“Oh hey Leah.”
“Don’t oh hey Leah, me. Why are you at the cliff?”
“No reason, I was just thinking.”
“Well come on, we have a meeting to go to.”
“Oh ok.”
Turning I ran after her toward Sam’s house. Once we went inside, everyone was there, and I let out a soft unnoticeable sigh. Sam turned his head connecting eyes with the both of us, and I went and took a seat by Embry.
“What took ya’ll so long?”
Paul asked sitting across from me, and I just shrugged my shoulders. Biting my lower lip, Sam clapped his hands standing up.
“Ok is everyone here now?”
“Jake and Quil aren’t here yet.”
Jared sighed, before he put his hands behind his head.
“Quil had to do something for his grandfather, but where is Jake?”
Sam asked looking around at everyone, I felt Embry tense beside me, and I glanced at him. He was staring down at the floor like it was really interesting, I bet he knew where Jake was.
“Embry?”
He snapped his head up, looking shock, before he looked away.
“Well Jake said he was going to stop by Bella’s before he came here. So…”
I felt my heart clench, and I leaned back balling up my fist in the couch. He’s always at Bella’s house, when will he give up, she already picked Edward. Turning my head, I started to zone them out, as I stared at the wall. This is killing me, what can I do to get rid of this pain that is in my heart.
There’s always the option of telling Jake… nah that probably won’t go too well. My wolf suddenly perked up, and that only meant that Jake was near. I could feel a smile slowly forming, and I turned my head to the door. There Jake came with Quil, and I let out a deep breath.
“There you two are, Ok let’s begin.”
Jake moved over to me, sitting on the other side. I gave him a smile, and he looked down ruffling my hair.
“Hey Puppy.”
“Hey Jake.”
Jake is the one who actually gave me the name puppy. I could feel the heat coming off of Jake, and I stared down at the floor. This was torture, like he was so close, but I couldn’t do anything about it. I felt my wolf whine for its mate, but I just closed my eyes. I suddenly felt myself being nudged, and I turned looking at Jake. He motioned to Sam, and I looked to see him staring directly at me.
Crap, he probably thought I was sleeping, and I lowered my head, but kept my eyes on him. I wasn’t listening though, I just played with my fingers, until I heard something about rogue.
So I want everyone to be really careful
The meeting was soon over, and I let out a sigh. Jake then got up, and went in the kitchen, probably looking for food.
“Seth.”
Turning my head, Sam was standing in front of me. I looked up at him wide eyed, and he motioned to the door.
“Come take a walk with me.”
Taking a walk with Sam meant either two things, you were in trouble or he knew something. I just hope it was the first one, and I stood up. Paul and Jared oooo us as we left, and I ended up walking slowly.
Once we had walked slowly and away from the house. Sam stopped and I stayed still staring down at the ground.
“Seth.”
“Yes?”
“Lately I’ve noticed that you have been really distracted. Do you want to tell me what’s going on?”
Lifting my head, I stared at him, before I looked away.
“Nothing really, I just got a lot on my mind.”
“Would you like to talk about it?”
“I…”
I don’t think I can talk about it with him.
“If you rather, I can get someone else to talk with you.”
“Like?”
“Leah…, Embry… or maybe Jake.”
I felt my body kind of jump at Jake’s name, but I just shook my head.
“No I’m ok, it’s something I got to figure out myself.”
“Alright, but Seth remember you can talk to any one of us if you need us.”
Nodding my head, he wrapped his arm around my shoulder and we headed back toward the house.
