From Broken To Brave

Family Reunions

“Jacob!” I hear someone yell making me open my eyes dimming my vision first, the perks of being a werewolf. I watch as a very attractive boy with brown hair and brown eyes pushes a girl out of the room and locks the door between them. He slouches on the door and watches me. Slowly his sent fills my heart and it flitters. I sit up and climb out of bed sitting on his lap as if I had done it a thousand times.

“Jacob?” I ask under my breath and he nods his head happily. “I’m Sabrina.” I say and he smiles repeating my name as if he just wanted to try out the sound of it. Then we lean in a nod kiss sending shivers up and down my spine. I giggle and pull back taking another look at him. He seemed like the type of guy you would see at a party surrounded by cheerleaders. I watch his tone muscles tighten as he waits for me to lean back in. I do so happily after seeming him soft lips curl up into a smile.

We stay just like this till I feel like getting up. When I do so Jacob follows close behind.  I wander off to the plain white bed I just crawled out of and try to find my clothes. It only took a few seconds for me to figure out that they were already in the bathroom. I walk to the door and turn to close it seeing Jacob still in the door. “You can go if you like, just leave your number on the table. I need some time to figure out what’s happening.” I say but he just stares at me with a questioning look, as if he wants to go tell his friends about what happened but doesn’t want to leave at the same time.  I remember perfecting the same look and using it on Trey when we were little so I could get him to let me do anything. I nod one last time and he kisses me again softly then turns looking back every few steps to smile at me.

I took a long shower and soaked in the hot water for a few hours even after I was clean. I was about to turn the water off when I felt as if stiches were ripped out from my stomach. I slide down in the shower and look down trying to figure out what happened but there was nothing there. I take deep breaths and the pain only grows when there’s nothing else I can do I start to cry, I feel my wolf start to cry inside also, and her tears make my skin cold to the touch. I lower my head and let to water keep running over me.

 I must have been crying for hours, judged by the fact that when Weston finally found me I had freezing water now coming from the foist that was steaming when the pain first started. The intense pain is now just a dole pain in my chest, but it was replaced but the numb feeling covering my body. Weston wrappers a towel around me and carries me back to the bed covering me with my blanket again. I’m still shivering when he climbs in next to me and presses his warm body against mine. I feel more chills run up my body but this time it was because of the already familiar sent of Jacob that came through the door way.

I clinch my eyes shut still not knowing what happened but my wolf knows it was something to do with him so there is no way I’m going to give him a second of my time. I turn over and I hear him struggle to talk. When I go to turn and look at him Weston covers my eyes and tells me to get some sleep.

When I finally lay my head back down he gets up and walks out of the room taking Jacob with him. I quickly tune my hearing without getting out of bed.

“What the hell is wrong with you?” I hear another voice yell, David most likely.

“What do you mean?” Jacob asks as if he has no clue what they were talking about.

“You’re just a low life scum! I can’t believe you! Sabrina is the most amazing and wonderful girl on the face of earth, I could only wish whoever my mate is that she is half as amazing as Sabrina!” I hear anger inch out more and more with each word that comes from Weston’s mouth.

“I doesn’t matter what I do,” I hear Jacob laugh as if this was all just a stupid fight between friends, but I could tell without even looking at them that both David and Weston were ready to rip out his throat. “She’s my mate. Plus even if she knew how to reject someone she’s too weak to.”
