IMPRINTED

3

Fang's POV

The only thing I could do when that guy walked up to Max and kissed her was watch. At first, I wanted to laugh because this arrogant guy was going to have a broken jaw. Or worse. I looked at the Flock and they all had wide eyes, even Iggy who found out through Gazzy what was happening. We were all ready for the fight but instead of her knocking the crap out of this guy she wrapped her arms around his neck, his arms went around her waist. I couldn't believe what I was seeing. Max, our leader, having a make-out session with some random guy. I looked down at Angel, What is going on? I asked her mentally.

I...don't really know. Something about a imprint. I...The only thing I can get from Max is happiness and from Jacob, that guy kissing her, that he finally found her. She shook her head, she looked sad. Fang, I'm sorry.

I knew Angel knew I loved Max, always have. I wanted to be as far away from this as I could. Ange, can you remind her that we are still here? She gave me a short nod.

Max's POV

When he kissed me I was happy. I was whole. My flock was finished. I knew I was safe in his arms. When he slid his arms around my waist I didn't even care that he may be able to feel my wings. My heart led me here. This is where my heart wanted to be. Is this what you call...love? Its wonderful what ever it is.

Uh, Max its Angel. What's going on? Because well frankly, we are waiting for you to knock the mess out of the guy that you are...you know...making out with in front of.

Oh, crap. When I remembered what the hell I was doing, I snapped my heart out of my head and let my brain think clearly. Okay, first, I was making out with some guy I don't even know. IN FRONT OF EVERYONE!

Okay, so as quickly as I could, I removed my lips from his and pushed him away, giving myself a little jump to get away. Everyone was staring at us, well me for pushing him away. I gave my head a quick shake and looked at my Flock.

"Lets go." I mumbled. Fang was staring at me with eyes I couldn't read. The Flock turned around and headed away. I shook my head again and turned away, but someone grabbed my wrist. I turned my head back, it was the guy I kissed. "Don't. Just don't." Was all I could get out, Pain crossed his face. Pain crossed my heart.

Jacob's POV

I watched her walk until I couldn't see her anymore. I didn't know that I was shaking until Sam came up and put a hand on my shoulder and told me to go for a run and cool off and think. He also reassured me that she would come around. I didn't believe him. I turned around and was a wolf before I hit the cover of the trees. I didn't know I was headed over to the Cullen's until I was at the meeting where the woods met their yard. I was going to see Bella. She was usually at the Cullen's now, because of the wedding. I guess Alice saw everything go blank because there was a pair of shorts waiting for me, they reeked but they would work.

When I got to the door I didn't know if I should knock or just walk in but someone from inside yelled for me to come in. Bella was sitting on the couch with Edward, his arm around her shoulder. That site would have made me cringe if I wasn't thinking about Max.

"Hey, Bella. Can I talk to you?" I asked quietly. She turned her head to me and looked at Edward like she was asking permission. He nodded and she got up. I just walked outside. It really didn't matter if I walked outside or not they would listen but I was going to save myself embarrassment of looking at all of the vampires.

I heard the door open and shut behind me. "Hey, Jake. Whats up? You okay?" Bella asked.

"Yeah, No. I don't really know." I heard myself saying. "I imprinted."

"That's great! But what is the problem?" she said. She looked happy and worried for me.

"I kinda, think, I messed up. Or scared her away. Or freaked her out. Or, I don't know." she nodded, she made a hand motion as to say 'and...' So I just told her everything. How I looked for her, thought I saw her, how I heard Leah and how I just walked right up to her and kissed her.

"Yeah, I can see how the last part might have made her a little mad." Bella said, but she smiled. "But if she is your imprint then it shouldn't matter. Go talk to her. She will understand."

"That's the problem, I don't know where she is. I have never seen her around. I had to go look for her, granted she went right to the reservation but I have no clue where to look."

Bella thought for a minute, "If I was going to visit somewhere then I would look for a hotel or motel. There is one in town, check there first." I felt like a idiot, I didn't even think of that. It must have been written all over my face because she laughed and said, "She is not going to be sleeping in trees, Jake." she walked back inside.

Max's POV

The Flock didn't say anything to me when we go back to the hotel.

"Go ahead and get your showers and we will order something to eat." No one responded. Gazzy, Angel and Iggy walked threw the door that connected our rooms to the boys room and Nudge grabbed her things and went to the bathroom to take a shower. Fang stood by the door, watching his feet and I lay-ed down on my bed and put the balls of my fist in my eyes. What was that about, I mean, I freak out when I kissed Fang but I was just fine kissing...what's his name...Jacob, I think is what Angel said.

"So, what was that about?" Fang asked, I could feel the bed move as he sat on the side.

"I don't know. I really don't know. " I said, removing my hands from my face to look at him. "I wish I did."

"Well, you must have known him or liked him or something to be sucking face with him." He said, a very small smile played at his lips.

"I...It was like I knew him. Or have known him for ever. Like we belonged there." A small flash of hurt covered his eyes, but I acted if I didn't notice. I didn't like hurting Fang. "You know I love you like a brother, right." Fang just nodded. Nudge walked out of the bathroom, rubbing a towel through her hair.

"Can we order some food now?" she asked.

"Sure, go ask what everyone wants." she nodded and walked into the next room.

"Yeah, I know." Fang said. I felt horrible. I looked out the window to see that it had started raining as the sun went down.

We ended up ordering six pizzas, they were going to get here in forty-five minutes.

When someone knocked on the door I expected it to be the pizza person.

"What is the total..." I didn't finish because standing in my hotel door way was Jacob.
