Even Heroes Have the Right to Dream

Wave's POV

"Ok now that Sophie has gone off with that ass, what would you like to do now?" I asked the rest of the people there, slightly irritated.

"Swim, cliff dive, sun bake and stuff. Now why is Tom an ass?" Seth asked.

"Cos he didn't say hi and he's hell rude," I huffed.

"He had a good excuse," Embry whispered. I probably wasn't meant to hear that.

Seth grinned goofily at me and ruffled my hair. I scowled at him, making him chuckle and then I turned around to talk to my brother, but he was in a heavy make out session with Kim.

"Oh my god!" I shouted, but they took no notice of me. I groaned.

I turned to Jacob, Seth, Embry and Quil. "Wanna go for a walk boys?" I asked them.

They all nodded, I quickly put my clothes back on and we left, giving them some privacy.

Jacob and I walked ahead while Seth, Embry and Quil walked behind us, talking about someone called Claire.

I walked slightly dejected next to Jacob. He looked at me suspiciously. I couldn't stop the small sigh that slipped out my mouth. Jacob raised an eyebrow and I knew exactly what he meant.

"I hate seeing all these happy couples around and I just think will I ever get something that good? I'm pretty sure I won't," I explained quietly, trying not to let my voice break.

Jacob wrapped a huge muscled arm around my shoulders.

"You'll find someone soon, I promise." He told me firmly.

I smiled up at him and leaned in to him. There was a slight silence for a while.

"Guess what?" I grinned.

"What?" Jacob asked confused.

"You're it!" I squealed, poking him in the chest and running.

"Hey no fair!" I heard him shout from behind me.

I laughed and kept running down the path, the green trees flying past me. I could hear Jacob's heavy footsteps somewhere behind me, so I turned around to look. I couldn't see him anywhere behind me, so I turned back around. Probably wasn't a good idea to turn around at a corner in the path because I bashed in to something, huge and hard. It felt like a brick wall. The impact was so hard I fell back on to my ass.

"Fuck," I moaned holding my head in my hands.

"Watch where you're going," An angry voice snarled at me.

I flinched backwards. I looked up and saw a russet guy standing before me. He was godly! He had a strong jaw line and full lips to go along with it. Short, dark brown hair framed his perfect face. He had dark russet skin, like the boys. His body was too good to describe, his shirt stretched so much over his muscles that it looked like it could rip at any moment. I couldn't help but notice that he was shaking violently, his hands curled in to fists so tightly that his knuckles were white. Just like Jared did when Jacob called me hot.

Behind him was a blonde haired, blue eyed tramp, with way too much make up. Course the hot ones always have a bimbo as their girlfriends. Her shirt was sightly lifted up, her huge lips were swollen and her eyes were slightly glazed over. Oh shit I walked –or ran- in on their make out session.

The guy's gaze moved and he glared at something behind me, so I turned around. There was Jacob looking slightly stunned, slightly angry. He walked around me and stood in between me and the guy. I got up and stood next to him.

"What are you doing Paul?" Jacob asked harshly.

That god is Paul? Oh shit. My eyes widened and I moved closer in to Jacob's side and pressed my side to his arm. There were loud footsteps behind me. I turned around and Quil, Embry and Seth came running around the corner. When they saw me cowering at Jacob's side their eyes narrowed.

"What's going on here?" Embry asked serious for once.

Seth came and stood beside me and I felt Embry and Quil behind me.

"This little midget bashed in to me while I was busy with Heather here," Paul sneered and jerked his thumb backwards at the girl, who was now staring at each of the boys lustily.

"I AM NOT A MIDGET!" I shouted, unable to contain myself. I hated when people called me a midget.

"I'm pretty sure you are a midget," Paul laughed.

"I am not a fucking midget!" I shouted at him and broke away from Jacob and Seth's sides.

I walked straight up to Paul and tried to get up in his face, but he was too fucking tall.

"You call me a midget one more time and I'll make you regret it," I told him angrily.

"Yeh? What are you going to do to me?"

My fist was just itching to punch the ass on his fucking face.

Paul started shaking more violently and I really wanted to take a step back, but I wouldn't show this dickhead that I was a little freaked out 'cos of his size. I then felt someone's huge arm wrap around my waist and pull me back towards them and into their chest. I looked up and saw it was Seth. He was scowling uncharacteristically and if looks could kill, Paul would be six feet under.

Jacob took three strides ahead of Seth and me and put a hand on Paul's shaking shoulder.

"Paul this is Jared's little sister." Jacob told him quietly.

Paul's eyes widened and switched from Jacob's face to mine, but for some reason he didn't look me in the eyes. He stopped shaking all together and then it looked like he was checking me out –as best as he could with Seth's arms around me-. I just kept my eyes on his beautiful onyx ones, the ones that wouldn't look me back in the eyes.

"Paul are you checking out my sister?" Jared's angry voice came from behind me.

Paul's head whipped up and stared behind me, probably at my brother.

"No way man, why would I check out this little midget?" Paul shrugged.

I struggled against Seth's arms, which were tightening with each movement.

"Let me go Seth!" I shouted at him. "The fucking dickhead deserves what he's got coming to him!"

"No Wave, you'll get hurt," there was definitely concern in his voice, but there was also frustration.

I stopped straight away and looked up at Seth.

"Let me go," I said through gritted teeth, anger seeping through my voice.

Seth let me go, startled. I started forwards, but something pulled me back by my shirt. I brought my right hand around to slap them, but it definitely hurt me more than it hurt my brother.

"OW MOTHERFUCKER!" I shouted.

Jared's looked went from angry to concern in less than a second.

"Is your hand okay Wave?" he asked frantically.

"No, it is not fucking okay," I said my voice sounding angry, but really it was just me tryna mask the pain.

I broke away from Jared and started running back the way I came down the path.

"Wait Wave!" Seth and Embry called out to me, but I didn't listen. I just kept running.

I cradled my right hand in my left one and a tear slipped down my face. I got back to where we started and found Sophie and that guy, Tom making out, but my hand hurt too much for me to care. Sophie looked up and when she saw me she shot straight up.

"What happened Wavy?" she asked me, quickly rushing over and gently touching my cradled right hand when she spied I was holding it.

"I met Paul again by bashing in to him and got in to a fight with him but the boys –Jacob, Seth, Quil and Embry- didn't let me hurt him, Jacob told Paul I was Jared's sister and he started checking me out, then Jared came and got angry at Paul and Paul called me a midget! A fucking midget!" I told Sophie and she gasped.

"Well to us you look like a midget," Tom said and I gave him death glares. I don't like that guy.

Sophie gave him a look that said 'you're being an idiot' and Tom pouted and shut up.

She then turned back to me, "What happened next Wave?"

"Seth wouldn't let me go hurt Paul, but I got him to let go, but Jared grabbed me and I spun around and slapped him really hard. Now I got this fucking hurt hand." I told her.

"Idiot should have just let you attack Paul," Sophie sighed.

"Wait you slapped Jared?" Tom asked me, a weird smile played across his lips.

"Yep."

Tom took one look at my hand and burst out laughing.

"Y-you hit J-Jared! Hahahaha!" He laughed and doubled over.

Sophie and I exchanged a look, but left him. Then we heard noises. We looked down the path that I had just come from and saw everyone, including the dickhead (Paul) and his skank (Heather).

"Come on Wave, I think we should find you some ice to put on that," Sophie told me, linking her right arm with my left.

"H-hold on, I th-think there's ice in t-the cooler." Tom told us, while still laughing.

He walked over to a huge blue tub and got out some ice and wrapped it in a towel. He walked over to us and handed me the ice. He took another look at my hand and started laughing hysterically again, making me not like him even more.

Seth, Jake, Embry and Quil came over to me. Thank god Jared didn't, he knew I needed time to calm down. He stayed with Kim, Paul and Paul's skank.

"Your hand okay?" Jacob asked.

"It's been better," I sighed.

He took my right hand softly in his and inspected it. He sighed and put it back into my left hand.

"Nothing broken, but you should never hit anyone of us," Jacob told me grinning.

"Yeh! If you want to, hit us with a baseball bat or something," Seth chirped and I had to laugh.

"I'm hungry," Embry whined.

"Then go to the cooler and get some food," I told him.

The boys seemed to stand up taller, even Jared and Paul. Weird.

"There's food?" Seth asked excited.

"Yes?" I answered.

Seth grinned and spun me around in a circle, but was careful not to touch my hand. He then put me down and ruffled my hair.

"Thanks Wave!" He shouted running towards the huge blue cooler, the other boys in tow.

I laughed and went to join my sister, Kim and Heather (eww).

"What's going on girlies?" I asked my sister and Kim.

"We were just talking bout how hot our boyfriends are," Heather smirked at me.

I jerked my head back, shocked. I turned to Sophie.

"You're going out with Tom?" I asked Sophie.

She gave Heather an evil look and then turned back to me nervously.

"Yeh," She wrung her fingers which she always did when she was nervous.

"You didn't tell me," I told her, hurt. We told each other everything.

Before she said anything else I went over to where the boys were all just finishing stuffing their faces and were sitting on chairs. There were none left so I went and sat down on the floor next to Jacob and Seth's chairs. Seth played with my hair and I closed my eyes letting the warmth of the sun hit my face. I knew that this would be rare and I'd be damned if I didn't take advantage of it. I took the icepack off my now normalish hand.

"Wave?" Seth asked.

"Yeh?" I answered absentmindedly.

"Do you wanna get wet?"

"What?" I asked him confused, opening my eyes.

He picked me up by the waist and started walking.

"PUT ME DOWN SETH!" I screamed making him chuckle.

"Nope," he told me.

"DO NOT DROP ME OFF THE EDGE OF THE CLIFF!"

"Good idea."

"No! No! No!"

"Too bad."

I kicked my legs and pounded my fists on his back. It didn't work, just made him laugh. I looked at all the others who were nearly all smiling from the same spot.

"Aren't any of you idiots gonna help me?" I asked frantically.

Most of them shook their heads –Paul just looked utterly pissed, Heather looked at me like 'you're actually asking?' and Tom just grinned amused- and I sighed dejectedly.

"At least let me take off my clothes," I told Seth.

"Alright."

He dropped me on the floor, but kept a hand on me. I scowled at him and he grinned cheekily. I took off my short shorts and top and stood there. Seth took off his shirt, revealing his well defined muscles and then took my hand and we walked to the edge of the cliff. It was a long way down, at least ten meters. The water looked like it wanted to eat me. I would never do it by myself, but with Seth that's different.

"Can you carry me bridal style, it'll be fun," I asked him.

I wasn't really that scared, just annoyed that I couldn't do it on my own time. But if I made this as fun as possible I would forgive Seth.

"Sure," he smirked and picked me up easily. His skin was just as hot as Jacob's. "Let's do a run up!"

"Kay." I answered.

Seth walked backwards from the cliff about five meters, not even having to turn around.

"Ready Wave?" He asked.

"Duh," I grinned up at him.

He started running really quickly and then he jumped off the edge.

"CALABUNGA!" I screamed.

"WOOP!" Seth shouted.

The wind hit my face and gave me an adrenalin rush. As we got closer to the water Seth pulled me in closer to his body. We hit the water pretty hard -Seth taking most of the impact- and we plunged down deep in to the water. After a second Seth surged to the surface and of course I went up with him.

Seth shook his hair out of his eyes, water spraying everywhere.

"OI! Enough dog!" I laughed.

He grinned and shook his head closer to my face.

"STOP IT!" I laughed again.

"Ready to go back to shore miss fishy?" Seth asked me.

"Aww do we have to, I love the water," I asked him breaking away from him and laying on my back, looking up to where we just jumped off.

"Jake and Embry at waiting to jump," he said.

Sure enough when I squinted I could make out Jacob and Embry. Embry was jumping up and down slightly and Jacob was waving. I laughed and waved back.

"Alright let's get outta the way." I sighed and swum over to Seth's back and held on while he swam quickly to shore.

"Can we do it again, but in like a different way?" I asked excited.

"Sure," Seth smiled as we got out of the water.

We waited for Embry and Jacob to jump –Embry did a twist and then dove in to the water and Jacob did three summersaults before he hit the surface- and then Seth gave me a piggy-back back to the top. I caught Jacob looking at me once or twice which was odd.

I jumped off a few more times with the boys. Once more by Seth's side, once on Embry's back, once on Jacob's shoulders and lastly with my legs around Quil's waist and my head on his shoulder. Each protected me as we hit the surface of the water.

All the other guys jumped off as well, while the girls just chatted and ate. It looked so boring and I wasn't about to miss out on all the fun just so that I could have a girl chat and eat. Also I'd rather not since the skank was there.

I took heaps of pictures with everyone except Heather. I even got one or two with Paul; he wouldn't dare touch me of course or look at my face. He just stared straight into the camera. We got a huge group photo that Heather took, I was right in the middle with Seth left of me and Jacob right of me, they both had an arm wrapped around me –Jacob around my shoulders and Seth around my waist-. Paul was behind me and Embry and Quil were on either side of him. Tom and Jared sat Indian style in front of us with Kim and Sophie sitting in their laps. Everyone looked so carefree, relaxed and happy, even Paul –he looked a little angry tho-.

Heather left at four –thank god-, but not before a huge make out with Paul

–Yuck!-. By the time we finished it was sunset.

"We better get going," Jared sighed.

Everyone packed up and got their stuff. Much to my enjoyment –but also disgust- none of the boys had shirts on –couldn't help but look at Paul's godliness, even if he was being a dick-. I picked up my bag and started the long walk down. It was hard cos I kept slipping and I kept yawning because I was so tired.

I was walking, not looking where I was going when the earth bellow me came loose and I slipped, I close my eyes, waiting for impact, but it never came. I opened my eyes and saw that Embry had caught me by putting an arm around my waist.

"Do you want a lift?" He asked kindly.

"Yes please," I answered tiredly.

He carefully lifted me up and swung me around so that I was on his back. I sighed and lay my head in between his shoulder blades and let the unusual heat and his steady heartbeat lull me to sleep.
