Lightning {Rosalie Hale}

The Wolf Girl

After the whole Jake thing, I had to cool down. I had texted Paul asking if he would want to hang out. I haven't seen him recently, plus he said he wanted me to meet some new people. Two new pack members, I guess.

I had gotten to Emily's place, and Paul was already outside waiting for me.
"Just in time, Eli. I want you to meet the new members." Paul said o me once I got out of my car.

We walked inside, and everyone was inside, or I thought everyone was.
"Where's Leah?" Paul asked
"She went out on a run and said she'd be back in a bit." Said a voice I didn't recognize.
"Great. Anyway, Eli, I want you to meet Seth Clearwater, one of our newest pack members." Paul said, gesturing to the unknown person
"Oh, hey." Seth said, sticking out a hand for me to shake, "When Paul said he had a friend coming over, we all thought he was lying. I mean, have you met the guy?"
I just laughed and shook Seth's hand.
"Yeah, that's me, Elijah Swan. Paul's only friend." I introduced.
"Hey! I have friends." Paul said
"Oh yeah? Who? You can't name me." I said, crossing my arms and raising an eyebrow
"Embry's my friend," Paul said, pointing at him
"No, I'm not." He called back
Me and Seth just laughed.

"Who's this?" Another unknown voice said
I turned around and saw a tan-skinned girl with a bob-like haircut. The same tribal tattoo on her arm as the rest of the boys. I guessed this was the second new member.
"Leah, this is Elijah," Paul said
"It's nice to meet you," I said with a small smile, sticking my hand out for her to shake.
She grabbed it and finally looked me in my eyes. When she did, she gasped. And so did everyone else in the room.

Leah's POV:

I was just coming back from my daily run. When I got back to Emily's place, I saw a person I'd never seen before in the living room. He was pale with brown hair and a skinny build. I had no idea who this guy was or why he was in this house.

"Who's this?" I asked
The boy, along with Paul and my brother, turned towards me.
"Leah, this is Elijah," Paul told me, gesturing towards the boy.
He stepped closer to me, sticking his hand out to shake, "It's nice to meet you." He said
I figured I should be polite, so I shook his hand and looked at him. When we locked eyes, I gasped.

'Suddenly, it's not gravity holding you to the planet...it's them.'

I just Imprinted on Paul's friend.

I didn't know what to do. I ran.

Elijah's POV:

I was so confused. She ran away. I looked over to Paul; he seemed to know what happened.
"Did I do something wrong?" I asked him
"No. No, it wasn't you. You should probably go find her, though. You two have a lot to talk about." He said to me

After what seemed like forever, I finally found her on the beach. She was sitting on a log, watching the waves.

"Are you okay?" I asked, coming up to her, "I'm sorry if I did something to upset you."
"No!" She shouted, "I-I mean no, you didn't do anything wrong it was all me." She said, ducking her head down and wrapping her arms around her legs.
"Do you want to talk about it?" I asked, sitting next to her.
"I-" She hesitated, "I imprinted on you."
"A what?"
"Imprinting....it's like...when you see them..everything changes. All of a sudden, it's not gravity holding you to the planet. It's them." She explained
"So...what, we're like soulmates?" I asked. I was getting scared. If I had two different soulmates, how would I choose? I don't think I could hurt my rose like that, plus this new girl I just met would be devastated knowing I have another one.
"It's not just that. An imprint can be anything you need, a friend, a brother, a protector, or a lover. It doesn't necessarily have to be lovers. It's commonly that but not always. I can be anything you need me to be." She said, finally looking at me again.
"Well...I'm already in a relationship." I said
"I know. With that blonde vampire girl. The Cullen girl, right?" She said, looking at me
"Yeah, her name is Rosalie. But I wouldn't mind having another friend, maybe even another sister. Heaven knows mine gets on my nerves enough."
"Oh, tell me about it. One time I woke up, and Seth had poured ice-cold water all over me, saying I was late for school. It was July, and I had graduated already."
"One time Bella threw away a valentines Day card I got from a girl because she thought her hair was a funny color. It was red."

The next few hours were nice. Me and Leah talked about our lives together. We got to learn more about everything that was going on. I was happy that I had met her. Hopefully, I could help her get over the whole 'Sam and Emily' thing. I have been told I am a great wingman.

I just hope Rose doesn't freak out too much...

"SHE WHAT!?"
"It's not like it was on purpose, Rose." I said to her, trying to calm her down, "Plus, we already talked everything out, and we are both perfectly fine with us just bring friends."
"You were hanging out with that mutt ALL DAY!?" She shouted again
"Rosalie Hale. Leah is my friend, and you are my soulmate. I really want you both to get along. You both are important in my life; it hurts to see people I care about not get along." I told her. I stood from her bed and grabbed her hands, looking her in the eyes, "Can you at least try to get along with her? I'm not asking you two to become best friends and frolic in fields together while making flower crowns. I'm just asking you to try not to fight."
"Fine. I'll try. Only for you. I make no promises of becoming her friend." She said to me
"I'm fine with that." I smiled and kissed her, "Thank you, love."

Everything was fine now.....I hope.
