IT WAS DANCING TIME, and Bree & Arlina were dancing together, laughing and cheering. Demetri walked towards them just as slow music began to play and cleared his throat, catching their attention, and Arlina couldn't help but feel weird at the sight of him, Felix and Alec wearing something other than their cloaks.

"May I have this dance, m'lady?" He bowed slightly with a smirk at Bree and she smiled before she nodded, taking his hand and walked towards him. Arlina chuckled lightly at the two, and she heard a growl coming from somewhere, so she looked around, attempting to identify where it came from and she noticed Seth storming into the woods and Billy Black calling after him.

"Don't worry about it, Billy. I'll talk to him, I'm pretty good at giving comfort." She shook her hands around like jazz hands and sent him a reassuring smile before she took off to find Seth. She found him by the river that separated La Push from Forks and she sat down beside him carefully but not too close with her knees to her chest, also careful not to let her skirt rise.

It was quiet for a while until the younger boy spoke up, "I was never this temperamental until I began to shift, I was always just a chill kid, I never had meltdowns or tantrums or anything." He huffed and he rubbed his face, looking up at the sky with sad eyes, "Sam talked about imprinting and all that crap, but I'm still so confused about what I feel for Bree."

"That is so understandable, Seth, and it's okay to be confused. I was so confused about the whole soulmates situation when I first met Alec, but I learnt to understand and I adjusted. I'm sure you will too, it just takes time and patience." Arlina looked over at the younger boy with a sweet smile, the wind blowing through her red hair and Seth finally looked back at her, nodding slowly.

"Yeah, yeah, I'm sure I'll understand eventually. It's just the whole thing with her and that scary blonde dude, I'm scared she'll choose him and I'll be left with this stupid imprint, constantly chasing after her all the time like a lost puppy." He groaned, "And she'll find me annoying and forbid me from ever seeing her again and it'll all just go to shit."

She lifted her warm hand to place it on his arm comfortingly as he placed his head in his hands, beginning to sob quietly, she felt bad for him but she also knew that Felix and Bree weren't soulmates, they had a conversation not too long ago about it and she was sure.

Arlina was sat on her floor, halfway done with her painting for Edward and Bella's canvas and Bree knocked on the doorframe, catching the paint-covered redhead's attention, "Could I speak to you?" Bree asked nervously and Arlina nodded, finishing up with what she was doing and wiping her dirty hands on her trousers.

"Of course, what's up?" She asked and Bree strolled in, sitting on the floor beside her sister, biting her nails.

"Uh, I'll just cut right to the chase, Demetri asked me on a date..." Bree squeezed her eyes shut in embarrassment at the memory of the situation and Arlina chuckled lightly, trying to lighten the brunette's mood.

"What did you say?" She asked, pressuring further.

"I said no, I don't feel anything for him, I don't feel what you said you feel for Alec. I feel absolutely nothing. Maybe it takes time, but I should feel something right away... right?" Bree tilted her head, scrunching her eyebrows and Arlina shuffled forwards, wrapped her arms around the girl to stop her from trembling.

"Bree, if you don't feel anything for him then don't force yourself, let nature do its thing. Maybe you need to spend more time around him or maybe it's just not meant to be. Either way, it's absolutely okay and you shouldn't be scared of anything. Also... isn't the dude, like, twenty?" Arlina pulled back with a goofy smile and Bree giggled, her mood instantly lightened and she nodded.

"He told me he was twenty-three." Bree added and Arlina scoffed, standing up quickly and storming off to find the pervert.

"Demetri! I will find you! You are to be friends only!" She yelled through the house, ignoring the chuckled coming from certain parts of the house and soon she found Demetri before she began scolding him. Bree followed behind with a chuckle and they all agreed the two would be friends since Arlina certainly didn't agree with the fact that somehow a fifteen year-old and a twenty-three year old were mates, it was impossible that would happen.

"Seth, trust me, that will not be happening. The guy's super old, older than me... in both vampire and human years." She laughed and he began to smile, the girl had somehow managed to brighten his mood and he thought it was her superpower.

"Thanks, Arlina. You're like Super-Woman when it comes to comfort and reassurance, Alec's a lucky dude." A twig snapped from behind them and they both snapped their heads towards the sound, catching sight of the aforementioned boy.

"Yes, I most certainly am." Alec smiled wide with his hands stuffed in his pockets, looking lovingly at Arlina. Seth looked between them both and he stood up, holding out his hand to help Arlina up even though he knew she could get up perfectly fine on her own, he still wanted to show her kindness after her sweet words.

"Go find Bree and tell her everything, I bet you 10 dollars she likes you back." She rubbed her fingers together in a 'money' gesture with a laugh and he chuckled before he nodded and walked off, nodding at Alec on his way.

Once he was out of vision, Alec sped over to Arlina and placed his hands in hers, his face plastered with a grin, "I was looking for you everywhere and here, I found you with a little wolf."

"Well, I think that little wolf will be around a lot more often." Arlina looked down at their hands with a warm smile and as she looked up, Alex's face was inches closer, causing her to smile and bite her lip.

"And I think I might be around a lot more often too" Alec added and he moved closed, wrapping his arms around her waist before he placed his lips on hers, both of their eyes fluttering closed. She placed her own arms around his neck, pulling his face closed as she leaned back, her lips still connected to his.

They moved in unison, silently kissing each other with so much intensity and Alec soon asked for entrance to the inside of her mouth to which she accepted, opening her mouth for him to explore. She tugged at the ends if his dark hair, her tongue twisting around his like a wildfire.

Their heads tilted from side to side and Alec pulled his lips from hers, trailing them down her soft, pale skin, nipping at certain parts, causing Arlina to moan quietly. She moved one of her hands from his hair and onto the collar of his blazer, somehow pulling him even closer than he already was, leaning her head back in pleasure.

She could feel his lips turn upwards into a smile against her skin at the sound of her soft moans surrounding the air around them. He finally opened his eyes and looked up at her from where he was kissing her naked collarbone. Arlina could feel her legs give away, she felt so much pleasure and love at that moment with just herself, Alec and the sound of the river and distant music.

Eventually, Alec moved down to her small amount of revealed cleavage, kissing down there softly before he pulled away with a smirk, quickly pecking her on the lips as she lifted her head up with a sad pout because he had stopped, "We best get going before they leave."

He began to walk away from her and she stood there, pouting, "Don't leave me!" She ran after him with a laugh and he looked behind him, wrapping his arm around her waist whilst he guided her through the maze of trees to the entrance of her home to say goodbye to Bella and Edward.

EVERYONE CHEERED AS BELLA AND EDWARD EXITED THE HOUSE, and Arlina watched in happiness as Renee and Bella had their moment. Bree joined her side, with a look of sadness plastered onto her face and it caused Arlina to glance over at her with concern.

"What's up?" The redhead asked and Bree sighed loudly, biting her lip nervously.

"Seth left mid-conversation and didn't come back..." She looked to the ground in sorrow and Arlina wrapped her arm around the girl, shaking her softly to comfort her, covering the girl like a heating blanket, "You're so warm."

Arlina laughed loudly at her comment and the car Bella and Edward just got into began to move, causing everyone around to erupt into laughter and even louder cheers. The sisters waved their hands up in the air with huge smiles on their faces, Bree instantly forgetting the recent incident with Seth and feeling immediate joy for the newlyweds.

They cheered once more and embraced one another as the car disappeared into the darkness, a couple of howls could be heard and Arlina rubbed Bree's back, comforting her as much as she could in that moment.
