Undesired Dream

Chapter 3: Unavoidable Pack

Jared Cameron's POV

I drove off. I looked at my rear mirror and saw that Kim was waving back at me, still breathless by my kiss. Oh crap! Did I rush things? Was it too fast? I should have stayed...no. Oh man! Shit! Why did I kiss her? It really was too quick. I should have gotten to know her well first, but I felt like I knew her already, inside-out and I couldn't resist it. Everything about her drew me towards her, she was so...beautiful! She was the most important thing to me now. I hope that we would be as happy Sam and Emily. Kim would be the happiest girl ever and I would make sure of it. All I could think of was Kim, Kim and Kim in my head. Her face, her scent of honey and rose petals, her smile, her laugh, her blush...everything about this girl fascinated me! I couldn't believe that I had found my other half today! Why didn't I notice her before, so I didn't have to flirt with those drama-queens. Cold-hearted bastard! Kim out-shone all of those girls. She stood out from everyone! She was my light.

I drove off to Sam's house. Ugh! I bet Paul told them already that I imprinted; that guy just can't keep secrets as always, and he just has to wreck things by spilling things out. I parked my truck outside and entered the house-hold. I could smell Emily cooking her "legendary muffins"!

"Jared!" Emily was at the kitchen with a handful of muffins on a tray, wearing oven-gloves and an apron.

"Hey Em! Where's the others?"

"At the back. Oh hey! Congrats for imprinting so who's the lucky girl?"

"Kim. Umm...can I have a muffin, please?"

"Yeah, sure!" She chuckled and handed me a muffin and I eat it all at once. Hmmm...nice! Emily is such a good cook!

"Thanks! That was as nice as ever!"

"Yeah, yeah. Now you should go to the pack. They are so eager to talk to you."

"Ok."

I ran into the forest that surrounded Sam's house. I took off my clothes and shoes, still running. There was a sound of tearing and I felt warmer...I phased. I was not alone anymore, suddenly a bunch of voices started nagging and popping out. Ugh! So irritating, now I have to explain. Dammit! Three wolves stood in front of me.

"Aww...Jared has imprinted! Congratulations!" It was gossip-queen Paul.

"So where have you been Jared? Huh?" Embry's annoying voice asked.

Oh shit! I thought about what happened with Kim.

"Oooh...interesting. She look's pretty!" Embry said slyly.

"Shut up! Go bug somebody else."

"Make me!" Embry's wolf form bared his teeth, like he was grinning at me.

"You have 5 seconds to stop before I'll tear you apart and wipe that grin off your fucking face!"

"Both of you idiots, SHUT UP!" It was Sam, we couldn't disobey him as he did his Alpha-power thing. Who cares anyway?

"Can we ever get some peace and quiet for once, okay?"

"Yeah, yeah."

"Ok, just remember Embry..."

"Shut it!" Sam snapped.

"Jeez! Sam what's wrong with you?"

"I'm sorry...I've just got a lot to worry about. You know, I think that Jacob Black and Quil Ateara might be joining us soon so we all need to take precautions for when it happens."

"Plus, I've heard that those leeches have left Forks and Jacob's pretty close with that vamp-girl, Bella Swan." Embry interrupted.

"Yes, so I think we'll expand the perimeter, so more and longer patrolling hours." Sam announced.

While patrolling the perimeter, I thought about Kim and how she was doing. All the things that I had learnt about her, like sometimes she was misunderstood or completely alone. I felt my heart go out to her and I wanted to be with her now to comfort her and hold her in my arms. I wanted to love her, if she would let me and I'd be by her side for as long she wanted me to. Hopefully forever. I missed her so badly.

"Man...stop moaning, could you? You're cranking my mood and you are making me like her. Do you want me to? Stop obsessing Mr. I'm-in-love-with-the-girl-who-sits-next-to-me-in-English."

"Ugh! You'll understand one day Embry, when you've found your other half. If you have one..." I rolled my eyes and it reminded me of how Kim reacted when this girl thought that we were dating.

"Oh no! My best buddy is becoming soft! Jared where are you? All I can see is Kim."

"Quit being dramatic Paul."

"Fine! Mr. I-love-Kim."

Everyone laughed, including me. It was true that I loved her.

"Jared, you can go now. I think you've had enough. Um...but wait. Did you tell her about our secret yet?"

This reminded me about everything. How would she react to it? Would she accept the truth or runaway from me? I didn't want that to happen, to see her hurt, crying because of me. How could I break it out to her? I know...I'd wait till the right moment to tell her, that's how I'll do it.

"Oh...I'll take it has a no. Now go on and good luck with that!"

I ran further away from the pack. I heard the ripping noise, I felt my temperature cooling a bit, my bones clicking and my eyes blinked open. I had phased back to human. I quickly removed my clothes that was tied around my leg and put them on. I ran to my truck parked at Sam's driveway and drove down the road. Where should I go? What should I do now? Sleep? Kim. The thought of going to her house delighted me and seeing her once again. Would she be asleep and it was late already? I didn't want to wake her, but I wanted to see her because I missed her. So I'll go!

The truck's wheels slid across the road as the car spun to another direction to Kim's house, leaving skid marks on the ground. I arrived at her house, disappointed for all the lights were closed. I wonder where Kim's room is? I sniffed the air and eventually caught the sent of my dear Kim. She smelt of rose petals and honey, which was the new scent that I mostly favoured now. Well, I followed it and jumped over the garden door. There was a balcony and I knew that through that door was my Kim, asleep in her bed. Now, how could I get up there?

There was a small tree stood outside and a metre away from the balcony.

I could do it. I could climb and jump, so I did.

I landed with a quiet thump. I peeked through an uncovered part that the white curtain didn't hide of the balcony door. There, my Kim lay asleep, still wearing the coat I gave her. She really did look good in it than me. She looked so comfortable, but she had dried-tears under her eyes and cheeks. Thump!...Oh no! Idiot!

My face smacked into the balcony-door, while I had been leaning close to see Kim's adorable, sleeping face. Kim's eyes soon fluttered opened and darted to where the sound came from. I immediately jumped off the balcony backwards and landed on the green lawn. One of the things I liked about being a werewolf! Next, I ran to the garden door, jumped over it and hopped into my car. I hope she didn't see me. It's impossible to anyways since I'm pretty fast. Well, I drove off home in hope to get some sleep and dream about...Kim.
