Marine's Daughter

*A month and three days later, July 2nd*
I am SO excited for the gang to get here today. I woke up this morning at five thirty and started getting ready for their arrival. I talked to Kim about an hour ago and she said they still had about an hour and a half till they got here so that meant there was thirty minutes. The general’s wife offered to fly them down here so they didn’t have to waste gas, it was cheaper and they would get here fast. We have been getting everything ready for them go get here. Since they were going to be staying on the base with me I talked to General Worthington and asked if he could help pull a prank on them since they didn’t know what to expect. He said he could use a laugh since he was stressed about the attack on Camp Kindsling so he agreed. Since the troops were deployed to Iraq there were less Marine’s on the base, more chaos and not to mention tension. So we put together the prank with some of the other commanders, cadets and soldiers. They were so excited. What is going to happen is a couple soldiers are going to pick them up at the airport in full uniform, they will leave in Humvees and when they get here they will go through the full security check; that’s with everyone that enters the base that’s a civilian. While they are going through the check the guards will “find something” in one of their bags. Hoping they will freak out this will distract the guards and they won’t “notice” the other two soldiers who will pose as terrorists. So the “terrorists” who are really other soldiers will jump out of the car, open fire with blanks and paint balls. We hope the gang will freak out and everything. Then more soldiers will run over to help and the “terrorists” will “die” in front of them. While they are freaking out everyone will of course start laughing and that is when I will pop up. I will be watching the whole thing from the guard station next to the main gate. Anyways, yesterday we had to practice to make sure everything went perfect and it did. I was so excited to see how they reacted. I of course had to tell Kim and Emily because I didn’t want them to get to scared since the prank was mostly to scare the guys since they said that they’re not afraid of anything. They said that they would get mad but would eventually get over it and they would probably try to get back at me. So right now I am making sure that they have everything they need in the guest quarters; towels, sheets, blankets, pillows, etc. Before they left La Push I gave them a list of things not to bring, told them the rules that they will have to follow while on the base like can’t photograph 90% of the base, don’t bring any kind of weapon, and a lot of other rules. They said that I didn’t have anything to worry about which makes the prank even better. The two guards that will be picking them up left thirty-five minutes ago to get them since it was a twenty minute drive to the airport, normally if someone was coming to the base by plane they would just fly straight here but since we are doing the prank they were flying to the airport off the base. I finished up and headed to the guard station at the main gate where everyone was waiting. The entire base was so excited to see what happened. I was always known for pulling pranks and everyone agreed that if everything goes according to plan that this will be the best one I’ve done since I got on the base. “Hey Mrs. Worthington, is everything ready?” I asked giving her a hug.

“Harold said that everyone is in position and ready for the command.” She smiled. She was so excited to see what happened.

“You’re so mean you know that right?” Samantha asked. Luckily she and Randy didn’t get deployed but unfortunately Kendall did and we were REALLY close.

“I know. This is going to be epic. You got the camera Andy?” I asked Randy who was sitting in the corner looking at a magazine.

“Yep, got it right here.” He smiled pulling it out from under the table.

“Sweetness.” I said walking over to him and sat on the desk. He, Sam and I talked for a few minutes till one of the soldiers ran into the station.

“Package has been picked up.” He said then left.

“This is going to be awesome.” I said laughing. We waited about fifteen minutes till we were able to heard the rumble of the Humvee driving down the road. “Get the camera ready.” I told Randy as I jumped off the table and walked to the window which was a one was. I could see out but people on the outside couldn’t see in. I hit the button to open the gate as they pulled up and the soldiers went out to meet them. I heard Samantha snicker next to me as we waited for them to get out of the Humvee. The doors opened and everyone started filing out. I saw Kim get out first followed by Jared, Sam, Emily, Quil, Seth, Embry, Jake and Paul. I couldn’t help but stare at Jake and Paul...they were HOT!! Also they were TALL, I’ve only seen them on web cam but they didn’t look this tall or toned. My mouth fell open and stared at them. Oh the things I wouldn’t mind doing to them. The soldiers started talking to them, checking ID’s then they said to put their bags on the tables to look through their stuff which they did of course. “Sam…this is it.” I said giggling. I heard her and Randy laugh next to me. The door on the other side of the small room opened and General Worthington and Mrs. Worthington walked in.

“How’s it going?” General Worthington asked.

“They’re about to search their bags.” Sam answered. Everyone gathered around the window. One of the soldiers called one of the other ones over to one of the guy’s bags and they pretended like they had found something. Suddenly the door to the Humvee opened and the “terrorists” jumped out and started shooting their blanks. The soldiers started shooting their blanks back. Sam grabbed Emily and fell to the ground laying on top of her while Jared did the same to Kim while the other guys scooted together and tried to get away from the “bullets”. I looked to my left and saw soldiers running over to help take care of the “terrorists”. As the fake gun fight broke out the guys, Kim and Emily were screaming and freaking out. Everyone that was inside the room with me was cracking up but trying to be quiet so they wouldn’t hear. Finally the “terrorists died” and the soldiers took their guns.

“CLEAR!!!” one of the soldiers yelled. I couldn’t take it anymore. I opened the door with Randy following me and busted out laughing as we walked out into the hot July weather. I walked over to the gang and stood in front of them while I laughed.

“Welcome to the Twenty-Nine Palms Marine Base.” I said bending over to look at them. Everyone started laughing while the guys looked around and got off the ground. Jared and Sam helped Emily and Kim up. When the two girls were up and standing they both busted out laughing causing the guys too look at everyone confused especially Emily and Kim. “You’re lucky that was a fake terrorist attack.” I laughed.

“What?” The guys asked looking at me. I calmed down and explained to them what happened. They didn’t find it funny, which is why I ended up running around the parking lot ducking behind soldiers with the guys following me laughing. Sam and Jared pouted by Kim and Emily while they tried to get them to stop which they did. I was almost back to Randy who was recording the whole thing when suddenly I felt hands on my waist then I was lifted into the air.

~Paul’s P.O.V~
As we chased Olivia around the parking lot after finding out that the whole thing was a prank I couldn’t help but get mesmerized by her beauty every time she looked back at us. Her smiled was blindingly whiter, her hair bounced around her in the wind, the sound of her laugh and the sound of her squeal when Quil grabbed her and lifted her up into the hair over his shoulders which caused her to stop laughing and start screaming. “PUT ME DOWN! PUT ME DOWN! PUT ME DOWN!” she yelled trying to get out of his grasp. Quil sat her on her feet and she started to giggle again. “Wow I haven’t laughed that hard in a while.” She said as we made our way back over to the Humvee.

~Jake’s P.O.V~
I couldn’t believe that little brat pulled a prank on us. I seriously thought I was going to crap my pants when they started firing their guns which we found out they were blanks but still. Even though the bullets wouldn’t kill me but they would hurt me but it wouldn’t last long. I knew that we were going to get her back for this. As we walked back over to the Humvee she skipped over to Kim who was standing by Jared, Sam and Emily. “AHH!! Kimmie!!” Olivia yelled running over to her and gave her a hug.

“LIVIA!!!” Kim yelled. We all stood next to Jared in front of the Humvee while we watched the two girls hug.

“I can’t believe that you guys are really here.” Olivia said smiling looking at all of us. “Ah Jake!” she squealed running over to me. She wrapped her arms around me and gave me a hug then moved on to Quil, Seth, Embry Paul, Jared, Sam then Emily. “ I am so glad to see you guys here in person instead of on Skype.” Her voice was like music to my ears. As she looked at me our eyes connected, it seemed like the world was moving in slow motion. I couldn’t help but want to walk up to her and pull her into my arms and let her---oh no…did I just do what I think I just did? I thought as I looked at her. I heard a growling sound next to me and looked at Paul who was glaring at me. *What was his deal?* I asked myself. I looked at Sam who was grinning at me. Yep, I imprinted. This was just perfect, I was so close to winning over Bella…maybe there is still a chance that this was just a 24 hour thing. But there is no such thing as a 24 hour imprint. I wanted to be with Bella but Olivia was my imprint. I’ve heard that it’s possible to break an imprint but it was pretty painful…I don’t care, I had to do it. I looked at the ground and sighed.

~Olivia’s P.O.V~
“Oh General Worthington this is my friend Kim Sutherland, her boyfriend Jared, Sam Uley, his fiancé Emily Young, that’s Quil Atera, Embry Call, Jacob Black, Seth Clearwater and Paul Wolfe. Everyone this is General Harold Worthington and his wife Amelia Worthington. This is Samantha Lewis and Randy Smith. I would introduce you to everyone else but that would take HOURS.” I said. Everyone shook hands and said hello. The soldiers all went back to what they normally did and we headed to the guest quarters while I walked arm in arm with Kim. The guys followed us while they carried their bags. When we got to the guest quarters I showed them where everyone could sleep or they could change but I basically showed them where everything was. General Worthington put them up in the guest quarters that has three rooms. They chose their rooms and we left so I could show them around. Sam and Emily decided to stay behind to unpack and I told them I could show them around later if they wanted. It was so different seeing everyone in person than it was on Skype. “So Jake, what possessed you to cut your hair and get a tattoo?” I asked as we headed across the field to go to the rec room.

“I don’t really wanna talk about it.” He answered quietly.

“Was it for the girl in the photo with you?” I asked. He didn’t answer but just shook his head. “Is she your girlfriend?” I asked. This caused all the guys to bust out laughing.

“He wishes.” Quil laughed. Jake blushed and glared at him.

“What’s her name? I think I should know the name of the girl who has captured your heart.” I laughed.

“Bella. Bella Swan.” He said looking at me.

“Hmm…that’s a nice name.” I said. “So Seth…how are your mom and Leah doing?” I asked walking in front of him backwards.

“Um…mom is doing good. She said to tell you hi, uh Leah well…she’s Leah. No change there.” He laughed.

“Still giving you a hard time for blowing her off last weekend?” I asked.

“Nah she’s over it…I think.” He laughed.

“So Paul…I heard that you got stood up last Friday.” I said turning to walk beside him and Kim.

“How did you know?” he asked.

“I have my ways, but what happened? I thought no girl could ever resist the charms of Paul Wolfe?” I laughed mocking him.

“They can’t. I really wasn’t even really interested in the date, she told me she was DTF so I went for it.” He said. The guys had told me that he was known as the king in the bedroom. I wouldn’t mind finding out sometime, I mean look at him. He’s tall, dark, muscles like you couldn’t believe and plus…he’s got a cute butt. (n.n)

“Haven’t you ever thought about just being with one girl?” I asked.

“Why? Do you wanna be that girl?” he asked. My cheeks flamed red and I looked down to the ground allowing my hair to cover my blush. I heard a growl coming from the other side of Jared. I looked over and Jake was glaring at Paul and he was shaking.

“Jake you ok?” I asked walking over to him. I stood in front of him and looked up at him. He continued to look at Paul and shake. Why was he shaking? “Jake, calm down? What’s wrong?” I asked touching his shoulder. His head snapped toward me and glared at me. The look on his face scared the hell out of me but when I looked in his eyes I couldn’t help but stare at him. He looked at me and after a few seconds he stopped shaking and closed his eyes.

“I’m not feeling well…I’m gonna head back to the room.” He said turning away and walked away. I looked after him confused and hurt.

“Did I say something?” I asked turning to face Kim.

“No, Jake has just been kinda emotional lately.” She said.

“Oh, well come on…I’ll show you the rec room, mess hall and the theatre.” I said grabbing Paul’s arm pulling him forward. After an hour I had showed them so many different things. I was going to show them the planes, Humvees, and the rest of the stuff but remembered that General Worthington told me not to have them around that area since they were going to be busy till the fourth. We decided to go back to my place and I showed them around. We sat in the living room and talked, laughed, cracked jokes, and got to know each other better in person. Before it was time to eat everyone headed back to their room except Paul who stayed and hung out with me.

~Jake’s P.O.V~
“Jake? What are you doing back, I thought Olivia was showing you guys around?” Sam said sitting on the couch in the living room of the quest quarters with Emily.

“I decided to come back.” I replied plopping down in the chair next to the couch.

“What happened?” he asked noticing my upset expression.

“Imprinting happened.” I growled frustrated. Don’t get me wrong, Olivia is BEAUTIFUL. Her smile, the way her hair blows around her when a strong gust of wind blows, her laugh, she is just beautiful but I didn’t want to imprint on her. For the last two and a half months I’ve been trying to Imprint on Bella, now that the leech has come back it’s been harder but now I’ve imprinted on Olivia which totally over took the last few months. I will admit that I have had a little crush on her for a few years but I had more feeling for Bella.

“Jake, you can’t deny the imprint. If you and Olivia were meant to be together then you have to accept it.” Emily said softly.

“But that’s just it…I didn’t want to imprint on her. I’m not trying to sound rude but I’m in love with Bella. Yes Olivia is absolutely gorgeous but it’s Bella I want. I don’t have to accept it if I don’t want to. I can try to break it.” I said sitting up.

“Jake, you know that it’s an extremely painful process to break an imprint and it’s never been done before.” Sam said

“I know Sam. I know.” I sighed running a hand through my hair.

“What were you mad at when you walk in?” he asked.

“I almost shifted in front of her and everybody.” I said.

“Jake, you need to learn to control it better. What made you so upset?”

“She asked Paul if he had ever thought about being with just one girl and he asked if she wanted to be that girl. The way he looked at her just irked me the wrong way.” I said.

“Paul? He likes Olivia too?” Emily asked.

“Yeah and according to Kim she likes him too.” I hissed. Sam and Emily looked at me then each other just as the door opened and everyone walked through the door laughing. I noticed that Paul and Olivia wasn’t with them.

“Hey guys…have a good time?” Sam asked.

“We had a blast. Olivia is even cooler in person. She showed us almost every inch of this place, well except the places that were restricted to us civilian as she put it.” Quil laughed.

“Did you know she spent three years in Milan, two in Russia, five months in Tokyo, and four years traveling Europe? That is so cool, she has awesome clothes.” Kim gushed sitting on Jared’s lap on the couch.

“Where are Paul and Olivia?” I asked.

“Oh at Olivia’s…Paul wanted to talk to her some more.” Embry said snickering.

“Yeah…talk, right. You know that boy has more than talking on his mind.” Seth laughed. I sat in the chair and started shaking violently.

“Imagine what they could be doing right now…all alone.” Quil laughed. My shaking became more violent as I stood up and balled my hands into fists and inhaled sharply. Sam stood up and came over to me.

“Jake you need to calm down, you can’t shift here. If you shift you will wreck the room. Calm down.” He said. I started to inhale deep breaths and slowly relax. When my shaking was just little tremors I sighed.

“I’m gonna take a walk.” I said.

“Be back before dinner so you can clean up.” Emily said. I nodded my head and walked out the door and started to walk about the streets of houses that held of Military families. *God this is going to be a hard imprint to break* I thought as I shoved my hands in my pockets.

~Olivia’s P.O.V~
“So you were left with you aunt when they died?” I asked Paul as we sat on the couch in my living room.

“Yeah…until I turned fifteen then I ran away and lived with Sam for a few months. I got a job, got my own place, and I’ve basically been on my own ever since.” He said facing me.

“Wow…I lost my mom when I was young, so I know what it’s like to lose a parent but both of them? I don’t know what I would do without my dad.” I said looking him in the eyes.

“It must be hard knowing that he could get hurt any second.” He said softly.

“It used to scare me to death when I didn’t hear from him for two days but after a while I got used to it and I have connections now so if anything happens to him I am alerted immediately.” I replied pushing a piece of hair behind my ear.

“So what’s it like living on military bases your whole life?” he asked.

“There are two sides to it, good and bad. The good is I always have someone to talk to, there is always something to do, I’ve gotten to travel and see the world which is something I’ve always wanted to do, um I’ve been able to meet important people and make a lot of friends from all over. But the bad is I’ve never been to a public school, never had sleep overs, never been on a date, never had a boyfriend and I’ve never…” I started to blush at the next thing I was going to say.

“Never what?” he asked curiously looking at me. I looked up at him and my eyes went to his lips.

“hadmyfirstkiss.” I whispered looking down.

“What?” he asked.

“I’veneverhadmyfirstkiss.” I said a little louder.

“A little louder Olivia.” He said with a little laugh in his voice.

“I’ve never had my first kiss.” I said looking at him turning as red as a tomato. “I’ve never been on a date, never been to a dance nothing. I’ve basically missed out on everything that teenage girls get to do.” I said looking at my hands. I closed my eyes hoping my blush would go away but it only deepened when I felt a warm hand touch mine causing me to look up. When I looked up my eyes connected with Paul’s I felt the same feeling I had felt with Jake earlier today. I got butterflies in my stomach, my heart started to race, I felt like I could melt into his eyes. Suddenly I felt myself falling forward toward Paul. Then he lifted his finger to my chin and I leaned my head back. Before I knew it he was leaning down to me and seconds later our lips touched. I felt sparks shoot through my body as I leaned into the kiss unconsciously. I had just met the guy in person for the first time and I was kissing him. What is wrong with me? I asked myself. Suddenly realization hit me and I pulled away. “I’m so sorry. I don’t know what came over me.” I said looking at him trying to read his expression.

“Well I’m not.” He answered smiling at me. I looked at him confused.

“You’re not?” I asked.

“Nope…I just gave you you’re first kiss and you have amazing lips.” He said. I felt my face heat up again as I looked down letting my hair cover my face. “I think I should go.” He said.

“Why?” I asked looking up at him through my hair.

“Gotta get ready for dinner plus I need to talk to Sam about something.” He said.

“Oh yea…ok, see you in a bit. I’ll come by and get you guys so we all can walk together.” I said.

“Ok, see you later.” He said. He leaned across the couch and placed his lips on mine again. “Bye.” He said.

“Bye.” I replied. He stood up and walked out of the room, out the door and down the street to the apartment. “oh my god…I just had my first kiss, with Paul, and I just met him. What is wrong with me?” I asked myself as I sat on the couch. I looked at the time and gasped. I only had thirty minutes till dinner and I still had to get dressed since I was still in my pajamas. I ran to the bathroom and took a shower.

~Kim’s P.O.V~
“So Jake imprinted on Olivia? Wow…I never saw that one coming.” I said to Jared as we got ready for dinner.

“None of us did…maybe this is just what he needs to get over Bella.” He said sliding his shirt on over his head.

“Yea…maybe. But what about Paul? I mean he has liked Olivia for a few years and Olivia has liked him too. I think she has a little crush on Jake but I’m not exactly sure.”

“Jake imprinted on her…Paul will have to deal with it.” Quil said walking into our room. I sat on the bed and pulled my phone out as it vibrated. It was a text from Olivia.

‘u r nvr gonna believe wat happened!!!! O.0’

‘wat?’ I texted back.

‘Paul and I kissed.’

“Oh. My. God.” I said looking at my phone.

“What?” Jared and Quil asked.

“Paul and Olivia kissed.” I said looking up from my phone to them. Their eyes widened as we heard a growl come from the other room across the hall.

“WHAT!?” Jake yelled walking out of his room and came into ours. I jumped when he glared at me. Jared stood in front of me since Jake was shaking.

“Paul and Olivia kissed.” I said quietly. I looked from behind Jared and saw Jake shaking like he was about to shift.

“SAM!” Quil yelled. A second later Sam, Embry and Seth were standing in the doorway.

“JAKE CALM DOWN! WHAT HAPPENED?” Sam asked.

“I got a text from Olivia and she said that she and Paul kissed.” I said nervously. Jake started shaking more violently. Jared grabbed my hand and walked me to the corner of the room that was farthest away from him. The gang tried to get him to calm down when we heard the front door open and Paul’s voice echo through the small apartment.

“HEY WHERE IS EVERYONE!?” he asked. That’s when Jake turned and ran out of the room with everyone following. I heard a growl, a loud crash, thud, punches being thrown and Paul yelling. “WHAT THE HELL JAKE!?! WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU?”

~Paul’s P.O.V~
I HAD to talk to Sam so I quickly walked to our guest room. As I walked in I didn’t see anyone in the living room. “HEY, WHERE IS EVERYONE!?” I yelled into the house. Before I knew it Jake was walking down the hallway shaking. When he got to me and charged at me and tackled me to the ground with a loud thud. He took me by surprise and punched me in the face. “WHAT THE HELL JAKE!?! WHAT THE FUCH IS WRONG WITH YOU?” I yelled. I kicked him off of me and punched him in the face. Before I could land another hit on him the guys were between us.

“ENOUGH!!!” Sam yelled using his alpha tone.

“WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU!?” I yelled glaring at Jake.

“WHY ARE YOU KISSING MY IMPRINT!?” he yelled back.

“IMPRINT!? WHAT IMPRINT!?” I asked confused.

“OLIVIA!” he replied.

“YOU DIDN’T IMPRINT IN OLIVIA!! I IMPRINTED ON OLIVIA!!” I yelled back. Everyone looked at me in surprise.

“That’s not possible.” Embry said.

“Two shifters can’t imprint on the same girl.” Jared said coming out of the bedroom with Kim and Emily behind him.

“I stopped in believing impossible when Leah shifted.” Quil sighed.

“Paul are you sure you imprinted on her?” Sam asked.

“I’m one million percent sure I did.” I answered still looking at Jake.

“Jake are you-“

“I’m sure.” Jake replied interrupting Sam.

“Well things just got complicated.” Seth said.

“I will call Billy after dinner and see what he thinks. Until then guys…try not to rip each other apart.” Sam said still using his alpha tone. We signed in frustration and nodded knowing we had to obey. “Alright, now let’s finish getting ready.” He said.

“Olivia said she would be over in a few to get us all so we can walk together.” Kim piped up from somewhere in the house.

“You guys need to keep it cool while in front of Olivia and the soldiers. We don’t need them shooting at us.” Sam said. I nodded my head and shoved past Jacob then headed to my room to get changed.

~Jake’s P.O.V~
How the hell could he kiss my imprint? How the hell could he think he imprinted on her, he just wants to get in her pants. I wouldn’t mind getting into her pants either. To feel her hands rubbing all over me while we made out. I had to shake the thought from my mind before I got to excited. I went back to my room and finished getting dressed.

~Olivia’s P.O.V~
*I KISSED PAUL! I FREAKING KISSED PAUL, THE GUY I’VE HAD A CRUSH ON FOR YEARS AND HE WAS MY FIRST KISS!!! THIS DAY HAS BEEN GREAT!!!*I thought to myself as I got dressed in my room. I had already done my hair, makeup and put my jewelry that I wore with this outfit. I put my shoes on and grabbed my phone and iPod before heading out the door to get the gang then head to the restaurant on the base. Even though it’s a military base we still have fast food restaurants on it which was very convenient. I put my headphones in my ears and walked down the road to where they were staying. I looked through my songs and found a good song to walk too, Bat Country by Avenged Sevenfold. As I got to their guest apartment I knocked on the door and waited for someone to open it while I bopped to the song. A few seconds later the door opened to reveal Kim smiling. “Hey.” I said pulling my headphones out of my ears.

“Hey, you look great.” She said.

“Eh, I try. You look awesome.” I said gesturing to her outfit.

“Thanks…the boys are still getting ready surprisingly since I’m usually the last one done but I told them we were going to a fast food joint.” She said as we walked into the living area and sat on the couch. We sat in silence for a few minutes. “So you and Paul kissed?” she asked.

“Isn’t that what the text said?” I laughed.

“How? I mean I know how but what caused you guys to kiss?” she asked turning toward me.

“Well we were sitting on my couch talking and he asked what it was like to live on a military base my whole life and I told him that it had ups and downs. The downs were no sleep overs, no first dates, no boyfriends, no first kiss and stuff like that. I felt so embarrassed and we looked each other in the eye and I don’t know…it was like I was being pulled to him. I had butterflies in my stomach, my heart started racing, and suddenly…we kissed. When I finally regained my common sense I pulled away and somewhat freaked out. You know the weird thing…I felt the same thing when I looked at Jake early this morning. Butterflies, racing heart, like I was being pulled toward him.” I said explaining to her.

“That is weird…so did you like it?” she asked winking at me.

“The kiss?” I asked. She nodded her head and giggled. “It was the best first kiss ever. I mean I could’ve kissed him forever. His lips were soft and gentle and….I’m so pathetic.” I said laughing and slapping my forehead.

“No you’re not.” Two voices called from behind me. I turned to see the entire gang standing in the door way. My eyes immediately went to Jake and Paul…but they stayed on Paul who had red cheeks.

“WHY DIDN’T YOU TELL ME THEY WERE THERE!?” I yelled at Kim and playfully smacked her arm.

“Sorry dear…they dared me to get you to talk about it but I didn’t think you would go into that much detail.” She laughed hitting me back.

“Ok, now that I just humiliated myself I am just gonna go crawl under a rock and hopefully suffocate to death.” I said getting up and walking out the door.

“OLIVIA!!” Kim yelled running after me with everyone behind me. I laughed and took off running with her behind me. “GET BACK HERE!!” she yelled laughing.

“NEVER!!!” I yelled looking at her over my shoulder and laughed. Just as I turned back around to continue forward I tripped over my foot and fell to the ground obviously scrapping my knee, elbow, palm and probably bruising my stomach.

“OLIVIA!!” they all yelled running over to me.

“OLIVIA ARE YOU OK??” Paul asked as they all crowded around me. I rolled over onto my back and started laughing.

“OW!” I laughed. Jake and Paul stuck their hands out and helped me up.

“Why are you laughing? You just crashed and burned.” Jake asked.

“Ever since I was little I’ve always laughed when I was in pain. I don’t know why…I’m just weird.” I said before laughing again. I looked over my elbows, knees and palms; they were bleeding.

“You need to see a doctor.” Embry said.

“I’m fine…I will just clean up when we get to the restaurant. It’s no big deal.” I said looking at my elbow which had dirt in it. I tried to wipe it out and laughed as a jolt of pain shot from my elbow. “Ow.” I laughed.

“You are so weird.” Quil said as we started walking to the fast food area.

“Ok, we have pizza hut, taco bell, McDonalds and noble romans. You guys pick.” I said. While they talked about it I sat on the curb and picked at the dirt that was in my knees.

“We chose taco bell.” Sam said getting my attention.

“Ok, let’s go.” I said standing up as we walked over. Once inside the guys placed their orders and then us girls did. The guys practically cleaned out the restaurant of everything I think. They each got five tacos, two burritos and a soft drink. “Where do you guys put it all?” I asked as we sat at the table.

“In our stomachs.” Seth smiled taking a bite of his taco. I rolled my eyes and took a bite of my taco. After I finished eating I went to the bathroom and cleaned up my scrapes of the dirt and dried blood spots. After I got them cleaned up I walked out and ran into Jake who was coming out of the bathroom.

“Oh, hey Jake? Enjoy your tacos?” I smiled up at him.

“They were ok. You?” he asked avoiding eye contact with me.

“Taste like every other taco.” I said as we stood in the hallway by the bathrooms. I looked up at him and he seemed like he was ready to make a run for it. “Jake are you ok? You’ve been acting really weird since you got here.” I said leaning up against the wall.

“Yea, I’m fine. I’m gonna go.” He said then walked out the door. I stood there looking after him confused.

“So much for being friends.” I said before walking back to the table.

“Where’s Jake going?” Sam asked once I sat back down next to Kim and Paul.

“I don’t know, he said he had to go. He’s been acting really…different towards me since you guys got here. I don’t know what his problem is but I’m starting to regret inviting him.” I said taking a sip of my drink. “Hey can I ask you guys a question?” I asked.

“You just did.” Jared snickered from the other side of Kim. I reached behind her and smack his shoulder.

“Smart ass.” I laughed.

“What’s on your mind kiddo?” Sam asked putting his arm behind Emily.

“Why are you guys all so hot?” I asked making everyone laugh. I looked at them confused and was about to ask what was so fun when I realized.

“I knew I was good looking but being called hot is even better.” Paul said jutting his chest out.

“Not that HOT I meant temperature wise…when I hugged you guys it was like hugging a blanket hot out of the drier.” I said. I notice them all stiffen and look around in every other direction like they were hiding something from me.

“We live in a cool climate so we’re probably just adjusting to the warm temps here.” Sam said.

“Oh…that’s weird.” I said taking a drink. I still couldn’t help but feel that they were hiding something from me. “Hey Kim, do you wanna stay at my place tonight?? I’ve never had a sleep over before.” I said looking at her.

“Oh sure that sounds like fun. You don’t mind do you babe?” she asked turning to Jared.

“Not at all.” He smiled. She squealed and kissed him…ah the feeling of lips against lips. I couldn’t help but blush at the thought of Paul kissing me again flashed through my head.

“You’re welcome to come too Emily.” I smiled at her. She sat up straight and smiled at me then looked at Sam.

“You don’t have to ask my permission Em.” He said. She smiled and nodded her head. As I looked at how Sam looked at Emily and Jared looked at Kim I couldn’t help but feel jealous. I just wish that I could get off this base for a little while, go to a public school and meet a guy who will put his arm around me unconsciously and I would turn to him and smile. Just as I thought that I felt a warm sensation on my back. I turned to see Paul with his arm behind my back, as if he read my mind. I smiled at him and sat back.

~Paul’s P.O.V~
*Looks like Jacob isn’t going to win this girl. He’s been treating her like shit since we got here…some imprinter he is.*As Olivia sat back against my arm I couldn’t help but feel sparks shoot through me at her touch. I never would’ve thought that I would imprint on a girl, especially with the reputation I have of being a man-whore or whatever you wanna call it. I am going to make this girl mine.

~Sam’s P.O.V~
I looked over at Paul and Olivia across the table, I still couldn’t figure out how Jake and Paul both imprinted on Olivia. I had to talk to Billy A.S.A.P. “Is everyone ready to go? I’m sure the girls wanna get started on their sleep over.” I said looking around at everyone. They all nodded and we all stood up to leave.

~Olivia’s P.O.V~
As we stood up to leave I stood up out of Paul’s grasp and walked toward the door after everyone. Sam was walking with Emily in his arms and the same with Jared. They were so lucky. As we walked back to the houses I walked slowly behind everyone wrapped in my own thoughts when I suddenly realized that I was chilly out since it was getting dark. I shivered as the wind blew than felt a warm arm wrap around my shoulder. I looked up and saw Jake smiling down at me. “Where did you come from?” I asked smiling.

“I was sitting on the curb outside taco bell. Didn’t you hear me behind you?” he asked.

“No…I’ve been wrapped up in my thoughts.” I said looking away. We were quiet for a few minutes walking behind the gang. “Can I talk to you?” I asked.

“Isn’t that what we were doing?” he asked grinning at me.

“Don’t get smart on me now…yes we were but in private.” I said. He looked at me then at the group in front of us.

“Sure.” He said as we turned onto the street the houses were on.

“Walk me to my house…Kim and Emily are coming over later for a sleep over so we will have time to talk.” I said taking a sip of my drink.

“Ok.” He said. “HEY GUYS! I’M GONNA WALK OLIVIA TO HER HOUSE.” He called to the gang ahead of us. Everyone said ok except Paul who turned and glared at Jake. Jake tightened his grip on my shoulder and glared back at him then turned us onto my street. We remained in silence as we continued to my house, once there we walked in and sat on the couch in silence. “So what did you wanna talk about?” he asked.

“Why have you been acting weird around me today? I mean you were all laughs and smileys and jokes and everything before you got here but when you got here you started treating me different. Did I do something to make you mad?” I asked looking at him. He looked at me with a hurt expression.

“No, it’s not you…I’ve just had a lot on my mind lately and it’s been buggin me.” He said.

“Jake you’re my best friend…you can talk to me.” I said touching his hand which sent sparks through me. What was with the sparks every time I touched Paul and Jake…it didn’t understand it.

“It’s just there is this girl from back home that I’ve liked for some time now.” He said.

“Are we talking about Bella?” I asked.

“Yes. She moved here from Phoenix a year ago but her dad has lived in the town north of us since she was little and has been friends with Billy for just as long. So when Bella would come and visit we would always hang out. She stopped coming around a few years ago but just started coming back around a year ago. We’ve been hanging out and I developed a crush on her but she has a boyfriend that I’m not very fond of. A few months ago he and his family left leaving Bella crushed. So I tried to help her through it and everything. I tried to get her to like me but he ended up coming back and she went back to him which crushed me but I told her I wouldn’t give up on her as long as she lived. But everything has just been up and down and you remind me of her and it’s just weird cause I’ve liked you also but when I saw you this morning I fell head over heels for you but my heart still belongs to Bella. I know this makes me sound like a lunatic but when I heard that Paul and you kissed I wanted to pound his head in because he’s a man whore and only wants to get into your pants when you deserve better than that.” He said in only three breaths. I looked at him with my mouth hanging open.

“Wow.” I said looking at him. “So what are you going to do now?” I asked. He looked out the window like he was looking at something.

“I wanna try something.” He said grinning out the window before looking at me.

“What?” I asked trying to look out the window but was stopped by Jake grabbing my face and pushing his lips to mine. I was so shocked that it took me a minute a few seconds to realize what was going on but when I did I push forward against his lips. First Paul kisses me now Jake is kissing me, what was going on? I felt Jake slide his hand to the back of my neck and his other slide to my back as he pulled me closer to him. I wrapped my arms around his neck and leaned into the kiss. He pulled me closer and which cause me to have to straddle his legs. He held onto my waist and I felt his tongue slide across my bottom lip. Instead of letting him in I pulled away and got off his lap. I couldn’t believe what just happened.

“What? You ok?” he asked looking at me confused.

“Y-Yeah…um. Yeah.” I said touching my lips. He opened his mouth to say something but there was a knock at the door so I quickly got up and went to answer it. On the other side of the door stood a smiling Kim and Emily who had bags in their hands.

“Ready to start the party?” Kim asked. I smiled at her and moved aside so they could walk in. I closed the door and looked at them. When I looked at Kim her eye widened in either shock or horror. “Did we interrupt?” she asked.

“Interrupt what?” I asked. Had she seen us kissing through the window?

“You have a little something…” she said gesturing to the area around her lips. I gasped and wiped my face. Suddenly Jake appeared in the door way. Kim, Emily and I looked at him and I saw that he had pink tinted lips from my lip gloss.

“Um…I’m gonna get going. You girls have fun.” He said before walking out the door out into the night.

“OMG!! OLIVIA!! First Paul now Jake.” Kim teased.

“Shut up Kim. I have no idea what is going on with them or me… i am so confused.” I said.

“Well let’s forget about the boys and start this sleepover.” Emily said. We agreed and got into our pajamas then started the girls night.
