Something else`A Chapter by Some Random Person.When they finally talk about something else, or do they?"What
do you want to talk about, then?" Elizabeth asked him, knowing that he
didn't know. "Uh... Fine! Why does Haylee
want to know so badly?" "I'm not sure I'm the best
person to tell you why." "What do ya mean? Of course you
are." "Well..." She thought for
a second. Then sent to him nonverbally, If you want to know so badly,
ask her yourself. "Why? And please, quit doing
that unless we're around some people." We are, Elijah. Look behind you. "Uh..." He sniffed the
air. Someone definitely was here. Fine. You Not quite. Tell her. Now. No! She won't understand! Now
more rustling in the leaves of the forest behind him. Then he noticed that it
was noon, time for lunch. He sure was hungry. I'm hungry too. Let's go and get
ourselves something to eat. Fine. I'm still not going to tell
her. Whatever. I wish you would. Then
they left, to go to their separate houses and eat. Elijah ate
silently at the table with his siblings. No one talked, not even Nate. At Elizabeth's house, they were full
of conversation. Jomama was cooking hamburgers on the small kitchen grill while
Elizabeth was slicing some tomatoes. Grandfarter was at their glass table
watching TV (or was it listening?) and reading the Sunday Paper. "Hey Grandfarter, what's on the
news today?" "Lizzie, there was a large
break in at "Yikes! What did they
steal?" "A couple of lives, $2,000
dollars in cash." "How
many died?" "As of now, 5." Then the food was ready and they
sat at their glass table and began to eat their soft crusted, juicy with
tomatoes and avocados hamburger. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- When they got out of lunch and met
each other, Haylee was talking to her brother again. What did you say to her? Nothing. She thinks that if she's
all nice, then I'll give in and tell her. That's not going to work though. No, it's not. Yeah... Wait, how do you know
that it's not going to work? Because it never works on you.
Trust me, I've tried it. When?
Where? How? Why? A time you don't need to know, here, again, you don't need to
know the others. Tell me! Not until you tell Haylee. You set this up, didn't you? No, but I'm glad it happened the
way it did. Ugh! You're impossible! Can we
get through a conversation now that doesn't involve me telling them? Nope. And
she smiled half-heartedly at him. Was that a clue? What are you
doing? Messing around. So... Nate! He's hurt! Somewhere, I
don't know how or why, but I know. You can sense pain, it's one of the
qualities of a dog, therefore, one a werewolf has. This is going to take some
consideration. Do you know where he's at? No. Wait. I do, he's at Baseball
practice. Maybe he fell hard? No, this isn't the kind of pain
that's normal. Maybe Mom took him down Beethoven Ave.! He thought back to his own experience down that ally,
and wasn't happy. He tried to ignore the growing feeling that Nate's lost,
gone, hurt. They went to their houses after
several hours arguing about Elijah telling Haylee his secret. As of now, only
Elizabeth kknew about it, and that’s the way he wanted it to stay. She, on the
other hand, didn’t want to keep Haylee wondering what was going on with her
brother. © 2011 Some Random Person.Author's Note
