I stood there shocked, feeling paralyzed and mute. Imprint? The word sounded right in my head, but I couldn't fully process any of what was going on. I'm his imprint? It made no sense but at the same time it all pieced together.
I managed to tear my eyes away from Seth, and looked at Alec. He stood there already look at me with an angered expression on his pale face.
"I suppose I should be going now," he broke the silence in his uniform monotone voice. "Aria," he nodded at me, and then in an instant he was gone.
The silence returned again, everyone still as stone. I stared at the ground focusing on the dirt trying to control my uneven breathing and suddenly the dirt was a blur and I felt weightless. My feet took me away and my mind ran around in a million different directions.
The blur slowed and I found myself in an unfamiliar dark place surrounded by a canopy of trees. Looking around hoping I wasn't followed, I dropped to my knees finally completely overwhelmed by everything that has happened since I arrived in Forks. Nothing had gone right and it all felt like a never ending nightmare of events. I felt trapped and claustrophobic in my own thoughts. I don't know what to think of anything anymore.
A warm weight pushed onto my shoulders and locks of curled auburn hair tickled my cheeks.
"Are you okay?"
I turned to the comforting and familiar voice and hugged back.
"I don't know Nessie. Everything is too much right now I feel like I'm drowning."
She hugged tighter and let go.
"Understandable. Seth's freaking out too."
"Oh, right. Is like, you know, the thing, true?"
Nessie bit the inside of her cheek and nodded, "Yeah it is. Pretty crazy, huh?" She attempted a dry laugh trying to ease tension.
"I don't even know what to do. It feels right, and it sounds right in my head but I don't know what to think of it."
"Well, do you love him? Do you want to be his imprint?" She asked.
"I really do."
