Warning(s): Profanity

Summary: Your brother Paul has grown distant from you to join Sam Uley's gang. You feel quite indifferent about the whole thing but there is nothing left for you to do. One day his attempts to keep you safe become futile the minute you make eye contact with a certain werewolf.

-----

You missed your brother. You would never tell him that but it was true. A while ago he suddenly started hanging out with Sam Uley and his band of misfits. You had never met any of them in person, including Sam. You would only see them from a distance either at school or on La Push where you would be reading, doing homework, or simply clearing your head.

You now only saw Paul sparingly. He would come home late at night and leave early in the morning which was unlike his normal behavior of sleeping in until someone made breakfast. He rarely came to school now of days and it began to worry you. You tried to confront him on several occasions but he would say it was nothing to worry about or none of your business. Paul used to love spending time with you, but now you only felt like a burden.

You were at La Push listening to music and watching the waves crash against one another. You sat under the cliff diving area knowing this was where the waves were the most beautiful yet chaotic. You were at peace, not letting yourself worry about anything but the music in your ears, that was until they showed up. Once the loud grunts, laughter, and sounds of horseplay reached your ears you knew it was Sam and his minions.

You wished your music would drown them out but it was fruitless. You grabbed your backpack and began to leave not wanting to deal with the likes of them. You walked away, but before you could get very far you were suddenly soaked with water.

You stood there dazed, cold and furious. You heard someone emerge from the water laughing their head off until they suddenly stopped, presumably noticing you and your now wet state. The stranger quickly sprinted to you to apologize.

"I am so sorry. We didn't know anyone was down here." He explained, now only being a couple of steps from your shivering form.

"Of course you didn't, why would you even care ?" You questioned irritated. You had to admit you were being a bit rude but these were one of the people that took your brother away from you. Not only that, but he was also the reason why you were in the process of getting hypothermia. The boy you had yet to look at took your comment with a grain of salt knowing you had the right to be slightly upset.

"Is there anything I could do for you ?" He asked stepping closer as you ringed out your drenched hair.

"Nope, unless you have a towel somewhere in your shorts that is magically dry." You commented, now wringing out your wet shirt. He chuckled a little and you had to admit it was kind of cute.

" I'm Embry." He said sticking his hand in your line of vision so that you could shake it. You sighed, dropping your still wet shirt from your hands. You looked up to his outstretched hand and finally to his face.

To your surprise, Embry had frozen, almost like a deer in headlights. His previously extended hand had now fallen slack by his side. You stood there confused.

You soon heard heavy footsteps and turned to see the rest of Sam's gang, including your now distant brother. You looked back over to Embry to see he was still in a trance and you began to worry. Had you broken the boy?

As the boys got closer you began to grow fearful so you backed away slightly, almost tripping over your own feet. You presumed they were on the way to reprimand you for breaking their friend however, they all ignored you and walked straight to Embry, all except for your brother Paul.

Paul grabbed your wrist quickly and pulled you a few feet away from the rest of the boys.

"What are you doing here?" He asked in a harsh whisper stunning you completely.

"Oh I'm sorry do you own La Push? " You asked sarcastically, yanking your hand away from his grip and crossing your arms in annoyance. In the past couple of weeks he had barely said a full sentence to you and now he wants to act like he cares.

"I'm serious you need to leave," Paul mentioned looking between you and the wolf pack. See unknown to you Paul wanted to keep you as far away from his world as possible. He wanted to protect you, believe it or not, even if that meant not being as close to you as he once was.

Paul was waiting for another sarcastic remark from you but his ears only zoned in on one thing.

"Embry has imprinted. Give him a minute he'll come to eventually." Sam explained letting the pack members know, including Paul. Sam knew Paul could hear him with the help of his wolf abilities despite the distance he had created between the pack and yourself.

At this news Paul became infuriated, his hope to keep you away from his world was now crashing and burning before his very eyes. He began to storm over to the pack's direction leaving you confused.

You looked and noticed that he was now being held back by Sam and another boy you believed to be Jared, realizing that you had seen him around our school. They were yelling at him to calm down for reasons you were unsure of.

You jogged over to them trying to see what was going on and approached your brother with caution. You knew he could be hot-headed and impulsive but you had never seen him like this before.

"Paul, what's going on? " You asked, gently placing a hand on his shoulder. He suddenly whipped his head around to face you, anger being evident in his facial features. You quickly retracted your hand and backed away in fear.

"Stay out of this (Y/N)! " He screamed, sending you backward more with his harsh tone. Paul had never yelled at you like that before. You two had definitely got into your fair share of arguments but he never screamed at you.

Your face contorted to one of sadness and confusion, causing Paul to sober up from his anger, but only slightly. He regretted how he spoke to you but before he could attempt to apologize Embry stood between you two shocking everyone.

Embry pulled you behind him by your waist while standing his ground against your brother. He stood in a defensive manner causing Paul's blood to boil again.

"Back off Paul," Embry stated, his voice not as sweet and smooth as before. He spoke in a warning tone making you worried for what could happen next. The last thing you wanted was for a fight to occur.

Embry soon turned his head slightly towards you but kept Paul in his line of vision in case he tried anything. "Are you okay?" He questioned, his tone turning back to the one like before, it was gentle and calming.

You answered him with a nod of your head and he smiled down at you. The moment made you want to smile as well but your mind was running too wild for you to comprehend anything at the moment.

"Stay away from her." Paul suddenly said basically growling, still being held back by Sam and Jared. Embry turned back to fully face your brother sending him an apologetic look.

"You know I can't do that Paul, not as long as I'm alive," Embry said trying his best to defuse the situation when in reality it only made Paul angrier.

"I'll arrange for your funeral then," Paul stated trying to break the grasps on him and attack Embry.

"Can someone please tell me what's going on?" You questioned, finally regaining your composer. Everyone looked to you when you spoke and then to Sam for any sort of advice on how to handle the ordeal.

"We'll take care of Paul.Get her somewhere safe and fill her in." Sam ordered looking to Embry who merely nodded.

"The hell he will, I tried to keep her safe and now look! She will always be in danger because of you! " Paul exclaimed towards Embry. Paul wanted to make Embry feel bad for what he had done but in reality, it was no one faults, not even Embry's.

Before you knew it they were are all blurs in the distance. You looked to Embry in confusion and he only smiled sheepishly rubbing the back of his neck.

"I guess I have some explaining to do." He mentioned with an awkward chuckle.

" You think."
