Scarlet Malone Chapter 55
Scarle's POV
Dad ticks me off so bad! He annys the crap out of me! He thinks I can just get over him with a snap of a finger. Well I can't, I'm in love with him.
So where were you today? I didt see you at school. Bella said.
I ditched. I couldn't deal with it today. I said.
Oh. Bella said.
I stared ot the window while Bella drove. We arrived at Jake's house.
Hey Bella! Hi Scarlet. Jake said.
He picked Bella up into a hug and spun around.
Jake! Bella scolded.
Right sorry. Jake said.
Let's go into the shop. Jake said after a few minutes of akward silence.
Scarlet, please don't tell anyone about the bikes. Bella said as we went into the garage.
No problem. So you mind if I go to the beach? I asked.
Umm I guess not. Just come back in two or three hours. Bella said.
Okay thanks. I said.
Bye have fun! Jake said.
I ignored him and walked out of the garage. I got to the end of his drive and went left. Hoping that it would lead to the beach. I walked on a rode that was a cliff. I saw a couple of people at the edge. They were throwing someone off into the water. It was Sam, Jared, Paul, and two other guys. I ran over to them.
What are you doing? I asked.
Cliff diving. Paul said.
Cool. I said.
I watched Jared jump of the cliff and go into the water. He can back up quickly.
It's Quil's turn! Paul yelled. They grabbed Paul and started pushing him towards the edge.
I couldn't help but laugh. It felt good to laugh. I haven't laughed in a while.
I heard and truck and look over my shoulder. It was Bella and Jake.
Bella got out of the car and was almost running over here. Jake said something and made her stop.
Can I dive? I asked.
You might want to try the lower level. Sam said.
Not a chance. I said diagreeing.
Of course. Jared said.
Where did you come from? I asked.
It doesn't take me long to get from the beach to the woods and front the woods to here. Jared said.
Oh okay. I said.
So can I go? I asked.
Whatever floats your boat. Paul said.
Bella and Jake started walking over here.
Scarlet are you sure you don't want to come with us? Bella asked.
No I'm gonna stay here. I said.
Come on don't hang out with them. Jake spat out.
Why not? There my friends. I said as I looked at Sam.
He nodded his head! Yay! I have a friend.
You can be a fan of Scarlet but I won't! Jared said.
Just jump off again! I said as I rolled my eyes.
Okay well we will see you later. Bella said as she pulled Jake with her.
I dot like her hangig out with them. Jake mumbled to Bella.
I don't either. Bella said.
Time to go! Paul yelled.
He was running for me and grabbed me by my waist. He picked me up and then we jumped off the cliff. I sucked in a big breath before we hit the water. We hit the water and it took all my air away. It was freezing cold. I got out of Paul's grip and tried to swim up. He grabbed me and started pulling me. It felt like he was dragging me down. We broke the surface and I suck in a huge gulp of air.
Let's do that again! I said.
Okay come on. Paul said.
Oh my gosh it's freezing. I said as we swam to shore.
Nab it's summer. Paul said.
It feel like winter. Are my lips blue? I asked.
Yes! Do you want me to warm them for you? Paul asked.
Absolutely not! I said laughing.
We got to the beach and I wanted to sit down.
You can't sit down, we have to go to top. Paul said.
Fine. I said as I followed him towards the woods.
Get on my back. Paul said.
Is this another one of those pick up lines? I asked.
No I am being serious. Paul said.
Paul bent down a little and then I jumped on his back. He picked me up and started running into the woods.
Don't fall! That would hurt really bad. I said.
I'm not going to fall. Paul said.
Okay. I said trying to believe him.
How was it? Sam asked as we came out of the woods.
It was amazing! I loved it! I said.
She wants to go again. Paul said as he sat me down.
I went over the edge and looked down. Someone grabbed my ankles and held me over the edge. It was Jared.
Please don't let me go! I don't want to go by myself! I said.
He dropped me a little bit and than grabbed me. I let out a little scream.
Quit messing with her. Sam said.
Oh come on Sam! Don't tell me that you don't think this is fun. Jared said.
Okay it is a little bit but don't be cruel. Same said.
You ready to fly solo? Jared asked.
No! I said as I swung up and tried to grab his arms.
Nice try. Jared said as he let me go.
Ahhhh! I screamed as he dropped me.
I hit the water and it took my breath. I swam to what I thought was the surface. The air in my lungs had left and I was ready to suck in some air. I sucked in a little bit and water went into my lungs. I started seeing black dots everywhere.
Someone was pressing on my chest. I coughed up water. My lungs felt like they were on fire. I stood up started throwing salt water up. Someone grabbed my hair while I threw up.
Just breath. Sam said.
I sucked in a lot of air. Sam picked me up and than sat me in the sand away from the salt water I had barfed up.
Are you okay? Sam asked.
Yeah I'm fine! Will you help me get Jared back? I asked.
Sure why not. I must warn you that you might get thrown in again. Sam said.
That's okay. Along as I'm not being thrown in by myself. I said.
Okay come on. Sam said.
Sam picked me up and we ran for the woods. It didn't take long to get back to the top.
We got to the top and Sam sat me on my feet. Jared was standing at the edge looking down. I looked at Sam and he nodded his head. We ran for him and pushed him off. Jared grabbed my wrist. I grabbed on to the side of the cliff with my free hand.
Sam! I yelled scared.
Let go! Everything will be okay! Sam yelled down.
Pull me up! I begged.
Come on scaredy cat. Jared yelled.
Jared grabbed the side of the cliff and let go of me.
He was at my eye level now.
Your really scared aren'tcha. Jared said.
Yeah, I nearly died last time. I said as I looked up.
Right. Sorry about that. Jared said.
It's okay. Just don't tell my dad. I said.
You two need to climb up or jump. A storm is coming. Sam yelled.
I don't want to jump! I yelled.
It'll be okay. I won't let go. It will be like the first time with Paul. Jared said.
I looked into his and tried to see if he was lieing. But I think he was actually telling the truth.
Okay. I said as I swallowed.
He grabbed me around my waist.
Take a deep breath and close your eyes. The waves are going to be stronger than the last time you jumped. So when we come up take a deep breath because we will have to go under. Jared said.
I did what he said. I felt us go into the water. I wraped my arms around his waist. He pulled me up to the surface. I took a deep breath and we went back under water. He swam with the waves, I was just being pulled. I was losing breath so I started swimming for the surface. He kept me in his grip. I tapped his shoulder and pointed for the surface. He just shook his head no. He swam a little bit more and than we went up. I sucked in another big breath of air right before he pulled me back down. We swam more and than went up. I could touch so I stood up and sucked in some air. A wave crashed into me but Jared caught me just in time.
Thanks. I said.
Don't espect this nice thing everytime. Jared said.
You would be better if you were nicer. I said.
Well we all can't have our ways. Jared said.
Come on guys let's go to eat. Sam said.
I started walking in the opposite direction. He said guys so I thinking that is excluded me.
Scarlet wrong way! Sam yelled.
I'm invited? I asked full of excitement.
Yeah your one of us now! Sam said.
I had a huge grin on my face and I ran towards the guys. I caught up with them but felt like I had to jog to keep up with them. I was walking behind them.
Come on. Hop on. Sam said.
Thanks. All of you can walk vey fast. I said.
We have very long legs and well your legs are a little bit shorter than ours. Sam said.
Try a lot shorter. Jared said.
We arrived at the cute little house. Sam walked through the door and duck but I didn't. I hit my head on the door frame and fell off his back.
Are you okay? Sam asked.
Yeah fine. I said.
The guys stepped over me and than I stood up.
Who is this? A girl asked.
She was very beautiful but one side of her face was messed up. Her long black hair framed her face very nice and her brown eyes where beautiful.
I'm Scarlet and I'm dripping wet. Sorry. I said as I stepped out the door.
It's okay. Come back in. Emily said as she handed me a towel.
Did you go cliff diving? Emily asked.
Yes mam'. I said.
Oh please don't call me mam. Emily said.
Oh sorry. I said.
Did you have fun? Emily asked.
One of my three jumps where fun. I said as I glared at Jared.
Don't look at me like that. The second time was your fault. Jared said.
What happen the other two time? Emily asked Sam.
Give Scarlet a cookie. Sam said as he hit Jared on the head.
He licked it and handed it to me.
No thanks. I said.
I thought so. Jared said.
What happen in the water today? Emily asked still wanting to know.
The second time Scarlet came back up on the cliff, Jared grabbed her ankles and help her over the edge up side down. He let go and She almost drowned. Then the second time Scarlet and I pushed Jared of the side of the cliff. He grabbed Scarlet's wrist and pulled her over with him. She grabbed the cliff was scared to let go because of what had happen the time before. Sam said.
Scarlet was being a scaredy cat. Jared said.
Don'tcha think that you would be scared after almost drowning? I asked.
Nah, I wouldn't have drowned because I'm an excellent swimmer. Jared said.
Just shut up and eat your cookie. I said as I sunk lower in my chair.
Emily's house phone started ringing.
Hello? Emily asked into the phone.
Oh hey Billy. Emily said.
I wonder what Billy could want? How did he know Emily and Sam? I bet he knows the secert! I wonder if he use to be a wolf? That means Jake is going to become one!
Scarlet, Billy said that you need to go back to his house. Bella is going to leave soon. Emily said.
Okay. Thanks for today. I haven't had this much fun in a long time. I said.
Anytime. Sam said.
I left and started walking to Billy's house. It didn't take long to get there. I was sort of surprised by that.
Bella truck wasn't in the drive way so I knocked on the Black's front door.
Hi Scarlet come on in. Billy said.
Hi Billy. I said as I walled through the door.
Bella hasn't got back with Jake yet. I just needed to talk to you. Billy said.
