Thirty Eight
"Who's the guy?" Lauren asks me as I'm waiting beside her and our friends outside of school, school has just finished for the day and finals is coming up then graduation. It's been a month since visiting Italy and having my life be changed even more than before. Bella has been being tortured by me for the entire month, she complains and Charlie doesn't do anything to stop my torture. I've gotten to know Felix and Demetri more, with them here especially Felix I feel like I'm living again. I haven't spoken to Leah or Xavier in a couple weeks since they found out the truth, I've called but they don't answer my calls. I've taken the hint and know that they don't want to be friends with me anymore. I was sad about it but the I realized it was possibly for the best.
"What?" I ask looking at Lauren
"The guy" Angela says "we know there's someone, whoever it is he's making you much happier. More alive"
"I have a friend" telling them "he's great..."
"Do you like him?" Jessica asks
"Johnny hasn't been dead for a year" I say "wouldn't I be insulting him?"
"Hela" Mike says "it's not like you two were married. He was your first love not your last or only"
"So" Jessica orders "details"
We see a motorcycle come over and it's Felix driving "So you have a thing for guys with motorcycles?" Angela asks
"He's huge" Tyler whispers when Felix parks next to us, he takes off his helmet looking down at me.
"Hey" I smile "ready?"
"You?" He asks and the girls giggle hearing his voice. Nodding my head I get on the back of the motorcycle before we leave, today we are going cliff diving in La Push.
Felix assured me that the wolves can't hurt him or Demetri, though I don't know. I'll have to take their word for it. After thirty minutes, we arrive to the beach and Felix—since no one is around—runs me to the cliffs.
Taking off our clothes, I look down into the waters to see Demetri down there "Demetri" Felix tells me "is making sure no sharks or any predators are down there" he looks at me green bikini that I chose for this.
Taking a breath I take a few moments before running and jumping, I do a few flips before diving in and the cold water hits me. Opening my eyes, I swim to the top for air and see Demetri look over at me "Showing off?" We hear a splash and look over to see Felix pop his head up next to me.
"That was a lot of fun" I tell them "can we go again?"
"Climb on my back" Felix turns around and I wrap my arms around his neck and legs around his waist. He soon goes to the cliffs and climbs them bringing us back to the top "want to jump together?"
"Yeah" nodding my head, he holds onto my legs and we jump. This time much faster and I hold my breath closing my eyes as we end up back in the water.
When we are back at the top, I look up and over to the highway where we see Paul glaring down at us. "Can't that wolf take a hint?" Demetri asks
"No" shaking my head "he can't" he watches outside of my window in his wolf form waiting for me. I know imprints are different, it's not like them finding their soulmate. It's much different. He needs to understand that.
"Let's get back you back to shore" Felix suggests "your lips are turning blue"
~Swan House~
"I had a lot of fun today" telling Felix as he walks me up to the house, my hair wet from being in the ocean.
"Me too" he says
"You know Charlie likes you a lot" I tell him, we know he's here since his cruiser is here "so if you wanted to stay over you could"
"Did he let you and your ex sleep together?" I nod my head "he was fine with it?"
"He more like tolerated it" I answer "so if you wanted to walk in through the front door he'll be fine with it"
"I'll see you later" right, tonight when I'm about to go to bed. Felix is always there and holds me as I sleep, it's nice and peaceful. Kissing me on the cheek, he leaves as I go inside to see Charlie look up at me with Bella who is annoyed and furious. I mean right now she's wearing a flower short dress with high heel boots.
"Felix drop you off?" He asks finishing whatever he was reading.
Nodding my head "He's got something to do with his brother in Seattle" going into the living room "did Bella get here on time?"
"She did" Charlie looked at me "just as you arrived" looking at Bella "that kid trying to brown nose me or something?" More like marry her. He keeps asking her and she keeps saying no, if she really loved him she would say yes.
"He had a name" Bella snaps "and what? Is he too punctual for you? And what about Felix? Demetri? They get to come over and Edward doesn't?"
I slap her upside the head, she glared at me but shrinks back under my glare "okay...okay" Charlie gets between us "enough. First I'm okay with Felix and Demetri coming over since they earned my trust, Edward never had and I doubt ever will" Bella score "Bella? You understand why your being punished right?"
"I know" nodding her he's being vague and not really caring "I put you through hell" rolling my eyes I go to grab some chocolate cake before watching the show.
"Yes" Charlie agrees "you did, but also I have other reasons for grounding you and having your sister punish you in her...creative and concerning ways" rolling my eyes at that "like uh...I want you to get some separation from him"
"Dad there isn't anything you can say, Edward is my life" Bella shakes her head "and you can't change that, neither of you can change that"
"If he's your life" I ask "then why aren't you saying yes to his marriage proposal?"
"What?" Charlie asks as Bella shakes her head glaring at me "what are you talking about?"
"Whoops" placing a hand over my mouth mockingly "did I accidentally let it slip? I mean Charlie it isn't that much of a shock since he spends his nights here since coming back and before"
"Edward has been staying the nights here?" Charlie demands
