Chapter 20 (Paul's imprint,complete)

Paul squeezed my hand. I squeezed it back. I was really nervous about the bonfire. At the bonfire I would find out all the legends of the tribe, I would meet Billy Black, and I would have to watch Paul mess around with the rest of the pack, including taking everyone's food. I'm going to have to scold him for that...

"We're here," Paul whispered in my ear.

I nodded and hid my face into Paul's shoulder. I heard a deep laugh come in the distance. I looked over to see the entire pack watching us. I also saw Sue Clearwater, and Quil Ateara IV. There was also a heavyset, tan skin, wrinkle faced man in a wheel chair. That must be Billy Black. I heard Mr. Black was in a wheel chair due to a complications from diabetes.

Paul started dragging me towards the group. As soon as I was in view, Kim came running up to hug me. Jared followed Kim and started getting a play fight with Paul. Of course Paul was only fighting with one hand because he would not, and I mean WOULD NOT, let go of my hand.

"You finally made it! Did you walk here? That's much more romantic than what Jared did, he just drove here," Kim sighed.

"Hey!" Jared shouted. "I thought it was pretty romantic, if I do say so myself."

Kim rolled her eyes.

"Whatever you say..." Kim said, waving her hand. "So, did you walk here?"

"I guess you could say that," I whispered to Kim.

Kim raised an eyebrow, but didn't ask any questions. I lightly touched my forehead to say "I'll tell you later." Touching my forehead used to mean Jared said Kim' s name, but since Kim knows he doesn't stop saying her name we no longer need a symbol to tell her.

Kim nodded and watched Jared fighting Paul.

"No fair!" Paul whined. "I only have one hand to fight with!"

"Well, if you let go of my hand you'd have two hands."

"But, I don't want to let go of your hand..." Paul explained, using the puppy eyes on me.

I rolled my eyes.

"Fine. Then, can I meet everyone else? I also want to see Emily and Sam," I asked.

Now it was Paul's turn to roll his eyes, but he did lead me to the group gathered around a fire. I quickly hid my face behind my hair and lower my head. When I was sure no one would be able to see what I doing I looked through my hair to see Mr. Black looking at me skeptically. I looked back down and held Paul's hand tighter.

When, we finally reached the group everyone was staring at us. I slowly looked up at met Mr. Black's gaze. I felt even more nervous when Mr. Black's expression just got more and more darker.

"Sue, Old Quil, Billy, this is Katrina," Paul introduced, motioning to me.

I gave a small smile and waved to everyone. Emily immediately got up and hugged me. Sam also got up and started to mess up my hair. After my little "episode" at Sam and Emily's house, Sam and I got really close. I started laughing, but I didn't protest. If anything, I could just ask Kim for her brush.

Suddenly someone was tickling me. I immediately started squealing and laughing at the same time. I looked down to see a little girl tickling me, but when I looked up I saw Quil tickling me too.
