The day passed quickly. Laura and Paul played board games until Laura beat him at chess for the 6th time in a row.
"You cheated!" Paul exclaims. Laura just laughs and stands up. She walks over to him and puts her arms on his shoulders and around his chest.
"Aw don't be like that," Laura says when he wouldn't meet her eyes. "Its just a game babe!"
"Yeah," Paul grumbles. "Oh we need to go!" Laura looks at the clock. 2:31.
"Max!" she hollers downstairs. Footsteps thud on the stairs and Laura's brother appears. "Let's go." Laura unwraps the black band from her ankle and ties a tank top, sports bra and shorts to it. The three walk outside and shift. The pack was meeting by Sam's house before going over to the Cullen's. Max's black form trots ahead of Laura and Paul's gray ones.
Wait, Laura says. What is this for? Paul speeds up, Laura on his heels.
Its newborn training, Paul explains. Apparently the are stronger when they are first made. Laura thinks about it for a moment. The rest of the pack is already at Sam's so Laura, Paul and Max race towards them. Laura might have been the smallest, but she was the fastest wolf in the pack. She speeds ahead of Paul and Max, barking in excitement. Sam's house comes into view and Laura skids to a stop in front of Jared and Jacob.
About time you all showed up, Jake teases and playfully nips Laura's ear. Laura play growls and tackles him, but Jake is so much larger than her he just stands back up.
Move out! Sam commands. Paul licks Laura's cheek and the pack starts moving. Laura sticks close to Paul, their shoulders brushing as they ran. Once they got closer to the meeting place, Laura could see the Cullen's awaiting their arrival. Sam steps out in front of the rest of the pack. All twelve wolves step out of the trees enough that they can see, but the Cullen's can't see them clearly. The vampires gazed at their numbers in awe. One Cullen steps forward to greet them.
"Welcome," he says in a smooth voice.
"Thank you," Edward translates. Laura gets a brief headache along with some of the other wolves. They can hear Sam's thoughts in their heads, but they can also hear Edward's voice.
Whoa, Laura thinks. Paul chuckles in his head.
I feel ya, he says.
"We will watch and listen," Edward says in Sam's voice again. "But no more. That is the most we can ask of our self control."
