La Push. That's where I was going to live now.I wasn't sad for knowing I was moving back to La Push. I loved LaPush and the people there. It was just the thought of moving back without my family.
I lost my parents, my two brothers, and my sister to a tornado. See we were living in Tennessee 2 weeks ago. It was a tornado season and it was a bad one. I was at a friend's house on the other side of town when it touched down. The sirens weren't working out by my house and I lost my whole family because of it. I hated myself for not being there. I hated not getting to tell them that I loved them before they were taken away from me.
"We're here, Miss." The can driver said. I smiled at him apologetically and handed him the money. I got out of the cab and got my stuff and stood in front of my Uncle Sam and Aunt Emily's house. I took a deep breath and picked up my suitcase and walked up to the house. I knocked on the door and waited for them to answer.
Uncle Sam came to the door. When he opened it, I dropped my suitcase and jumped on him and didn't let go.
"It's okay, Chayton. I'm here. I'm here." He said soothingly and brought me into the house. I was only fifteen so I wasn't hard to pick up. He carried me into the living room where there were other people. I spotted Aunt Emily immediately and dropped out of Uncle Sam's arms and into hers.
"Hi, honey. I know baby girl. Everything is going to be okay. You're safe now. We aren't going to leave you." she said soothingly. I sniffles and nodded my head. She smiles at me. "We have some company, baby. Would you like to visit ir go to your room to rest?" She asked me quietly. Like my mother would when i was upset. I shook my head. "I'll visit. I just had a moment. I'm fine now." I smiled at her. She nodded and turned around to face the people in the room.
"Everyone this is Chayton Uley. She is Sam's brother's daughter." Emily said. They all nodded, smiling. A girl who looked about six walked up to me. "Hi, I'm Claire. And that's Quil." she said sweetly. I smiled at her. "Hello, I'm Chayton. Nice to meet you. Hello, Quil. Did you miss me?" Claire smiled brightly at me and jumped into my lap. I laughed. She reminded me so much of my sister at this age.
"Hi, I'm Seth Clearwater. And this is my sister Leah Clearwater." I smiled. "Hey Seth. How have you been? Don't act like you dont know me just because your three years older. Hey Leah." They laughed. Claire got off my lap so I could hug them. " I'm Kim and this is Jared." I smiled. "I'm Jacob but you can call me Jake." I smiled. "Ahhh. Yes, I remember you. You're the one that helped Quil there tie me to a tree." He blushed and sat down. I laughed. "I'm Brady and this is Collin." I smiled. "I'm Paul; this is Rachel."
I looked at the last boy and I felt butterflies come to my stomach. "I'm Embry. Nice to see you again." I smiled. Embry and I went out for two years then I had to move. It broke our hearts. I really liked him. I still like him, maybe still love him. "Hey Embry. How have you been? Been staying in trouble I'm sure." I smiled at him. He smiled back at me.
"Well, now that you have gotten acquainted or reacquainted why do you go get changed. We are having a cookout for your home coming." Aunt Emily said. Which caused me and Embry and break our gaze. "Okay Aunt Emily. I'll be back in a minute." I went to my room and put on some dark, flare jeans, white graphic tee, white graphic jacket, and my heels.
"Hey. Do you need help in the kitchen Aunt Emily?" "No, baby. You just relax and hang out with everyone. Kim and Rachel are gonna help me." she smiled at me sweetly. "Okay. If your sure." I smiled back.
I turned to the people left in the room. It was only Quil, Jake, and Embry. I smiled at them. "Hey, do you guys wanna go down to the beach for a minute? I want to see it so bad. I missed it." "Sure!" They all said at the same time. I laughed. "Come on." I walked out the front door with them right behind me.
We were at the beach now just walking down it. "I've missed this place so much. I have missed everyone too. So y'all tied any other girl up since I left? I laughed. "Of course not, Chayton. You know that was specifically designed for you." Jake said nudging me with his elbow. I laughed. "Oh, I'm so lucky!" I laughed. "I'm sure the girls now wouldn't mind if you tied them up." I laughed. They laughed too.
We walked down further. I was talking to Embry when Quil came from behind me and tossed me over his shoulder. "Quil Ateara! You put me down this instant!" I screamed. "Okay." He said and he dropped me. He dropped me right in the water. "Quil! The water is cold! It's winter time." I said as I got up and walked out of the water. He just kept laughing with Jake. I growled and shot them a glare. They stopped instantly and ran back twisted Aunt Emily's.
I huffed and walked over to Embry. "Let's go back. I'm freezing. I'm going to kill them if I get sick." He nodded and started walking.
When we made it to Aunt Emily's I was shivering horribly. "What happened to you?" Aunt Emily asked concerned. "Qu-Quil threw me-e in t-the wa-water." I said through chattering teeth. I frowned, "I'll get Sam to take care of him. You get warm, baby. When you are dressed in warm clothes we will all be outside." She said before she kissed my forehead.
I took a warm shower then got dressed. I was wearing dark faded jeans, a green t-shirt, white hooded jacket, and black boots.
I walked outside to the backyard after I was warm. As soon as I stepped out I wanted to run back in the house. It was so cold.
"Come on, baby. It's warmer by the fire." Uncle Sam said. He always called me baby. I walked over to where Embry was sitting and sat down next to him. Uncle Sam was right. It was warmer by the fire. But, not really at the same time.
"Are you hungry Chayton? Would you like a burger or a hotdog?" I shook my head. "I'm a vegetarian." I said proudly. "There is stuff in the house for salad. Would like me to go make it for you or Embry or someone could." I shook my head."I'm not hungry. Thank you though."
I was watching the fire a huge gust of wind came. I ducked my head further in my jacket but it didn't help. Then all the sudden it was hot. It felt nice.
"You looked cold I thought I'd help keep you warm." Embry said sweetly. I smiled at him. "Thank you." I went back to watching the fire. Occasionally saying something to Embry or glancing at him.
"Chayton." Uncle Sam said. It must be inmportant he used my name. "Will you take a walk with me? I need to tell you something." I nodded and followed him. We walked deep into the woods.
"Baby, do you remember the stories I used to tell you?" I nodded slowly. "Baby, they are true. All of them. Baby, me and the guys and Leah are werewolves. Claire is Quil's imprint or soul mate. Kim is Jared's. Rachel is Paul's. And Emily is mine." I stood there frozen. "Baby, it's okay. I'm not going to hurt and neither will the guys. I promise you that." I finally looked at him. "Hurt me? Why on earth do you think I thought that? I'm not scared of yall. I was just letting it sink in." I smiled at him hugely.
We walked back to the fire and I was ecstatic! I mean those legends are real. I always thought they were but I wasn't sure. When we got there I stopped.
"What's wrong baby?" "Does Aunt Emily know?" He nodded and I chilled out.
I walked over to Aunt Emily and took a seat. I watched the fire as everyone carried on. "So you know now?" Aunt Emily asked. I nodded and smiled. She smiled back and kissed my forehead. She got up and went into the house. I just sat there watching the fire. I was still cold.
"Can I sit here?" I nodded and Embry sat down. "are you cold?" I nodded and he put his arm around and pulled me close to him. "Better?" I nodded. " Did Sam tell you about us? I nodded again but this time I looked at him. "Are you scared of us now?" He asked worried. I shook my head. "Really? You aren't at all?" I shook my head. He smiled down at me.
We talked for a while. After about ten, people started leave.
Quil was the first to leave with Claire. I hugged Claire goodnight and she kissed my cheek. I smiled at her and laughed.
Quil came up and I turned away from him. "Oh! Don't be like that Chay-Chay. You know you still love me!" I glared at him. He walked up to me and hugged me, picking me up and spinning me around. When he set me down I punched him in the nose. I heard a crunch and sing noise and I thought it was hid nose but then I felt the pain.
"Ahhh! Ouch! Aunt Emily! Uncle Sam!" I was screaming in pain. Embry rushed to my side, pulling my closer to him and Uncle Sam and Aunt Emily came running out.
"What's wrong, baby? What happened?" Uncle Sam was yelling. " She hit Quil in the nose and broke her hand." Embry spoke for me. I had my hand pressed tight to my chest and my face buried in Embry's chest. I let out a scream.
"Come on. Let's get you inside." Aunt Emily said. She put her arms around me.I took my good hand and grabbed Embrys hand as we went to the house. He followed me willingly.
When we got in the house she set on the couch and Embry sat next to me. I leaned into him and pressed my hand to my chest. He sat the rubbing my back.
"Okay. Come on, honey. Let's take you to Carlisle. He'll fix you hand up for you. Good as new." Aunt Emily said Uncle Sam was ready as well. I turned to Embry. "Will you come with me please? I'll feel better if you came. Please?" I asked him. He nodded and we all got in Aunt Emily's car.
The car ride to Dr. Carlisle's place was short, thank goodness.
We walked up to the door and a beautiful woman greeted us. "Sam, Emily, Embry, and I'm sorry dear. But whats your name?" I went to tell her my name but Uncle Sam beat me to it. "This is my niece, Chayton. She
