We ended up stood on a small beach. "This is where everyone hangs out most of the time, coz there isn't much else to do around here." he explained. I nodded taking it all in. You could see the light bulb moment on his face as he got an idea. "I know let's play a game." I raised my eyebrow questionably at him, "what kind of game?" I asked slightly worried for my safety, Seth was to hyper for my liking. He shrugged. "I dunno, I was hoping you would have an idea." I rolled my eyes at him. "I know, we can play 20 questions." I shrugged and then nodded. It's not as if I could think of anything better.
"When's your birthday?" he asked actually looking interested.
"November 17th" I don't know why he wanted to know that but ah well. "Do you have any brothers or sisters?" I countered.
He nodded "Ive got a sister, Leah. I'll introduce you sometime." I nodded at least I would know one girl around here, apart from Emily of course. "How old are you?"
I raised my eyebrow, what was with all the questions about my age? "Uhh Fourteen?" it came out more as a question than an answer. I heard him mumble something that sounded like Embry gotta wait, but that didn't make any sense so I just brushed him off as insane. "What bout you?" I ask.
"Seventeen" What! How could he be seventeen he looked about twenty! he must have noticed my expression because hen just laughed. "Yeah I get that a lot" he awkwardly rubbed the back off his neck. If he's seventeen I wonder if the others are as old as I thought.
"What about your friends how old are they?" I asked. Maybe there wouldn't be that much of an age gap after all.
"Well, Sam's twenty four, Jake, Quil and Embry are all nineteen, Leahs twenty, Pauls twenty one, Jareds twenty aswell, and then theres Collin and Brady who you haven't met yet they're fifteen, so they're closer to your age." I just nodded. I guess I was wrong there is a big age gap between me and Embry after all. Wait, why do I even care? It's not as if I liked him. But I can't stop thinking about him. And when we locked gazes it was as if neither of us could look away. Like love at first sight. NO! I mentally scolded myself. He probably already has a girlfriend. Yeah. I mean come on when you look like that who wouldn't have a girlfriend.
By now it was starting to get dark, so we decided it was best to head home. I walked into the house with Seth following closely behind me. I looked into the living room and saw that only Jacob and quill were still here. "Where'd Paul and Jared go?" I asked anyone who would answer me. Quil his attention away from a game they were watching on the tiny tv to look at me. "Oh they had patr.... Uhhh.... Stuff to do, so they went." I nodded, I knew something was up. Quil didn't even seem sure of his own answer. I walked back over to the kitchen where Emily was once again cooking, is that all she ever does?
I walked up to my room when Seth went to sit with Jacob and Quil to go and watch the game. I realised I still hadnt unpacked fully. I took my first suit case and emptied my clothes into the drawers and wardrobe. By the time I had emptied the first suitcase everywhere was already full so I guess the rest will just have to stay where they are for now. I opened one of the boxes that had been mail over. It had all my art supplies. I sighed. I hadn't done that since my parent....
I walked over to the bed a lay down. I slowly drifted out of consciousness and fell into a deep sleep. That was the night they started. My nightmares.
***
There was a loud honking noise and a large flash of White light as the other car came flying towards me. It crashed into our car and sent us flying backwards. Pain swept over my whole body.
Suddenly I was no longer in the car, I was out side looking in. I was my dads familiar face, but only this time there was blood pouring down the side from a gash in his forehead. The airbag had inflated blocking my mother from my view. Until I was whisked around to the other side of the car where I saw the most horrible sight I had seen in my life. My mothers head had been split open and I could see inside, blood was oozing out of the large cut. There were sirens of ambulances blaring but there was nothing they could do. my parent were all ready dead and it was my fault. I hadn't been in the car that day. I was out shopping with some of my friends when I had phoned them asking them to come pick me up because I was to lazy to walk. It was my laziness that had cost them their lives.
***
I jolted upright and awake. Sweat was pouting down my forehead and my clothes were sticking to my body. I looked over to the clock on my bedside table 4:45am. There was no way I would be able to get back to sleep now. I grabbed my gown from the hook on the back of the door. I had changed into my pyjamas when I woke after about half and hour uncomfortable. I opened my door, careful not to wake Sam or Emily.
I walked into the kitchen, grabbed a glass from the cabinet and poured myself a glass of water. I sat down on one of the chairs that surrounded the table. That's when the reality of the dream started to kick in. I was all my fault. I had been over this many times in my head. I constantly felt guilty about their deaths. I had never told anyone this in fear of being sent to a councillor. Salty tears burned in my eyes before spilling over down my cheeks. I laid my head on the table before beginning to sob uncontrollably.
I woke up to the sound of the front door opening and closing again. I looked up and saw Embry looking down at me. He flinched when he saw my face. Great. He thinks I'm ugly. A tear slid down my cheek as I remembered why I was down here in the first place. He walked over slowing before wiping the tear away from my cheek. His hands were soft and warm, it felt like there were sparks in the places where he touched. His fingers left a light tingling on my skin. "Whats wrong?" he asked his face was twisted into a frown. Concern plastered all over his face. "Bad dream." I sighed.I looked out the window, it was still dark outside. "Why are you hear so early?"I asked. "Ummm" He looked around him as if he was looking for an excuse. "I was.... Hungry." Didn't he have any food at his house? "Don't you have any food at your house?" He shook his head. "I ate it all" He smiled sheepishly. I rolled my eyes. "How can you eat so much without getting fat?" I asked, if I just look at a piece of chocolate cake then I gain ten pounds! "I'm a growing boy." he protested, once again I rolled my eyes. "You grow any taller then we can give you a torch and you could be the statue of liberty!" Stood upend dumped my glass in the sink. "If you don't mind, I'm going back to bed." Turned and started walking back down the corridor. "Libby wait!" my heart skipped a beat and I froze in my spot. I love the way my name just rolled off his tongue. I could listen to that for hours! I turned to face him. "Sweet dreams." He smiled and award winning smile. I nodded "Thanks." Damn, that's all 'sweet dreams' Urgh! Wait, I shouldn't even be thinking like this. I mean he probably already has a girlfriend. My heart sank. Yeah probably. I walked back to my room and sat down on my bed. I tried to get back to sleep but the only thing that was going through my mind right now was Embry.
