Simply Us

chapter 18

Leah's p.o.v

10....9....8....7....6......5....4.....3.....2....1.....i counted in my mind before answering my mother.

"no mom i don't want to eat right now.i ate on the way here.now can i go."i said to her.she looked at me disapprovingly but gave me a short nod.even she could see that my wolf was on the edge. i had barely entered the house.just said a quick hello to everyone.more for the benifit of my mother than mine.refused her offer to dinner and now i was out.

i wanted to talk to Embry.i had not gone after fine the minute he took off just because i knew he needed some time alone to cool off.20 minutes seemed enough.

he wanted everyone to know we were together.i didnt.and it wasn't even true.one night under the sheets,well on the floor,and one night and half a day.but that was just it.one could hardly call that a relationship.well it was not like any other,cause we basically knew almost everything about each other,we were together in a pack,for godsakes but....i dont know,i just didn't want anyone else to know.what would we say that we were dating each other,that he was my boyfriend.well it did not sound that bad,but it was just embarassing.not that i cared what anyone else thought,but to tell the truth kindof was.and if we told anyone that we were togrther,i just didn't know what they would think.if they accepted it,it would be too much pressure,one thing would lead to another,and it would not be long before both our mother's would start pressing for marriage.

other's would disagree ofcourse.we were not each other's mate.and well there was like a fifty percent chance that we would not find our mates,ever.but still i didn't want to risk a heart.

all that being said,i still found myself,ripping my clothes apart and turning into my wolf.running after him like a damn idiot.god it felt god to finally shift after all these months

"embry"i called out aloud through my mind link.

"leah?hey." it was not embry it was Quil.

"hey.did you notice embry around here."i asked him.

"yeah.you just missed him."quil said quitely,through our mind link.

"what was he thinking?"i asaked him.paniking now.even if he did not porposely tell quil about us.just thinking about us loudly would mean that anyone from our pack who was in their wolf form at that time,could read his thoughts.

quil confirmed my fears.oh god he knew.i was going to kill embry the minute i found him.that damned fool.

"i knew Leah.i had known about it from a long time." quil said.he was talking every guardedly.taking in my every mood,like i was going to attack him any second.maybe i was.i was too angry to tell.....yeah i was.

"what do you mean you knew."i snapped at him.

"wait"he said. and then he showed me,everything that he had noticed about embry or talked to emrby about,through our mind link.

"well i am his best friend,its kind of not possible for him not to tell me."he was tring to defend him. but i was not listening him.

he loved me.he really did.it was kind of a different thing seeing it from quil's point of view than hearing it from embry himself.quil knew him better than,embry knew himself.and he saw the finality in embry,this was serious for him.i was the one for him.i felt happy because of this.like majorly,never felt this happy before,kind of happy

"yeah.he is head over heels for you,isn't he."quil said through our mind link,emerging from behind some trees.i had not noticed that i had stopped running and was rooted to the ground.i had not even noticed that quil was coming my way.if anyone wanted to kill me,now was the time
