"Are you going to come out and talk to me or keep following me like a creep?" I laughed turning around.
"How did you know I was following you?" Jake asked.
"Because I could hear your foot steps and your breathing." I smiled.
"Wow you got good hearing." he laughed.
"Well usually not but lately I have been hearing, seeing, and smelling a lot better." I confessed.
Jake just looked at me kind of funny but hoped I didn't notice it. I just left it alone for the time being.
"So what's up with Mr. HotHead?" I giggled.
"Oh Paul, nothing he is just used to getting girls easily and he has never met his match I guess, like you having a short temper and attitude like him makes him think he has competition." He explained while we walked.
"Oh makes a lot more sense, but what's up with the wanting to workout or go for a run with me?" I asked again.
"None of us like to workout or go on runs except him he lives for it well that and also cliff diving." He explained.
"What's cliff diving?" I asked looking at the ground.
"You know at the beach that really tall cliff we all go up there and jump off." He smiled.
"That sounds like fun can you take me some day?" I asked smiling.
"Sure we are going Wednesday you can meet us there at 1p.m. if you want." He offered.
"Yeah that sounds like a lot of fun I'll be there." I smiled.
We walked a little longer and then decided it was time for us to head back cause it was getting late. As we got walked back we didn't talk much and when we did it he would be asking me questions about myself. I answered them as truthfully as I could. We finally got back to the house where everyone was sitting in the living room you could obviously see them through the window. We walked in and I went to the kitchen where Emily was.
"Do you need any help?" I asked with a smile.
"Yeah that would be great." She smiled.
We washed the dishes and out everything away.
"Your parents left so Paul is taking you home because he lives down the road from you." She said after we finished putting everything away.
"Uhh.ok." I stuttered.
My whole main goal was to avoid Paul as much as I could because he just draws me in like we have something but deeper. I hated the feeling because I didn't want to get hurt again after what Hunter did to me I could never get over that's why I'm such a bitch to everyone and show no emotions.
"Are you ok?" She asked looking conserned.
"Yeah, I just me and Paul aren't the best of friends as you could see from earlier." I stated looking at the floor.
"Oh and I heard he got pissed at you because you tackled him or something but don't worry Paul is a nice guy once you get to know him, yeah he has a temper and an attitude but we all know he's a softy." She smiled.
"Who's a softy?" Sam asked walking in.
"Paul." She answered quickly and quietly.
"Oh yeah don't worry about him." Sam laughed while wrapping his arms around Emily and setting his head on her shoulder.
"You guys are adorable." I smiled.
"Thank you." Emily giggled.
I walked to the living room where all the guys were and looked at Paul who was asleep.
"He knows he has to take me home right?" I giggled and sat down next to Embry and Jared.
"I don't know." Embry laughed.
"Well I'm going to wake him up because I'm tired and want to get some sleep before tomorrow because I have travel softball tryouts." I said getting up.
"I don't think that's a good idea he hates to be bothers while he's sleeping." Jared warned.
I ignored the warning and went up tp Paul and thought was I was going to wake him up. And then I got an idea hopefully he wouldn't get mad.
He was sitting but with his head leaned back. So I sat down on his lap sideways. I knew he flet someone in top of his because he then grabbed my waist pulling me closer to him.
"Hey handsome wake up you need to take me home." I whispered.
He then threw his eyes open and stood up so fast I fell straight on my ass and hit my arm on the table getting a long cut on the side of my forearm.
I was so pissed at him, but I knew I had to control my anger because it was an accident but I was still pissed. Plus my anger management therapist said I need to learn how to control my anger. I had my jaw clenched and my other hand in a fist, I stood up and walked to the kitchen where I got a rag and wet it so I could wipe off all the blood. I was still pissed so my jaw was clenched still trying o control myself. I finished and walked out of the kitchen I waved to everyone and walked out because I didn't know what would come out of my mouth if I started talking.
"Maddie I am so sorry I didn't mean to it was an accident." Paul said sympathetically.
"It's fine." I said with my jaw still clenched.
"It's not fine your mad at me." He said his voice cracking.
I turned around to face him.
"Paul I said it's fine and leave me alone I can walk." I said turning back round.
"Please let me drive you it's late." He pleaded.
"Paul I said I can walk now leave me alone before I say something and we end up getting in a fight because I am doing everything I can to stop myself from kicking your ass right now." I said sternly trying not to turn around and punch him in his dumb face.
"Fine do what you want I was just trying to be nice but no you always have to be a bitch." He spat.
That was it I snapped I couldn't hold in my anger any longer. I spun around and punched his face. Something cracked but I didn't know if it was his jaw or my knuckles. I was so mad my body was numb.
"PAUL I TOLD YOU TO LEAVE ME ALONE DO YOU KNOW HOW HARD IT WAS FOR ME TO NOT PUNCH YOU WENT YOU DROPPED ME AND I GOT CUT THAT TOOK EVERYTHING I HAD AND THEN YOU CALL ME A BITCH FOR TRYING TO STOP YOU FROM DRIVING ME HOME BECAUSEE I KNEW THIS WAS GOING TO HAPPEN IF YOU KEPT TALKING THIS IS THE LAST TIME YOUR GOING TO SEE ME AND I SWEAR IF YOU EVER COME NEAR ME I'LL DO MUCH MORE THAN PUNCH YOU IN THE FACE!!" I was screaming in his face.
I then spun around and started running Apollo ran next to me the entire time until I got home which took me five minutes. I walked in and I knew my parent were asleep it was 2a.m.
So I walked up to my room and started the shower. I finally calmed myself down and looked at my hand I guess the crack was my knuckles they were already bruised up but they didn't hurt just really bruised. I stripped my clothes and sat in the shower till I was relaxed and then I got out dried off and went to my closet where I pulled out a sports bra and a pair of really short sleeping shorts and set an alarm for 5a.m. I wrapped my knuckles and Apollo jumped on my bed and we both fell asleep.
