Embry's Thursday

Embry was 17 when he met his imprint, it was a Thursday in the middle of summer. It was a day that wasn't special to anyone except him. He had some huge history project due, to this day he can't remember what exactly. All he remembers about that day is meeting Linda

A year had passed since the big confrontation with the Volturi. Life had resumed into an almost sense of normal, the packs stayed separated. Everyone understood that Nessie was Jake's imprint, but being around vampires was still uncomfortable to say the least. So Sam's pack consisted of Jared, Paul, Brady and Collin, while Jacob's pack had Leah, Seth, Embry and Quill.

All in all, everyone was happy with this arrangement. Quill and Jacob could relate on having younger imprints. Leah didn't have to deal with Sam or any thoughts of the others imprints. She didn't mind Quill's or Jacob's of course, they were bonafide babysitters. Their thoughts were mostly about Nessie and Claire's smiles and the silly cute things little kids do. Seth looked up to Jacob and was happy to see his sister happy. Embry was working with his two best buds and didn't have to deal with mushy imprint thoughts. Plus, there was the fact that he didn't have crazy patrol hours. His relationship with his mom wasn't the same as it was before he began to explode into a huge mass of fur. But his mom wasn't as worried or stressed, they were rebuilding the trust they once had.

Of course, because things had went back to normal. Embry had to go back to school. Not only school but summer school. So there Embry was forcing himself to go to the library in Forks, because the one in La Push was really only good for Tribal History. Even then Forks library wasn't the best either, but he was not going to Port Angeles for a book.

Embry, walked in to the library wearing his usually cut-off jeans. Along with a shirt and a pair of knock-off toms. Without the need for constant patrols, Embry had started getting used to wearing shirts and shoes. At first it was weird, like he was being forced into formal clothing. He had gotten to the point where shirts felt comfortable, but shoes were weird.

Embry skimmed through the library shelves trying to find the History section. On his way there he bumped into someone holding a load of books and then some. Embry looked up and then remembering how tall he is. Looked down. Hunched over picking up a huge stack of books, was a girl. Her brown choppy short layered hair falling to cover her whole face.

Embry feeling a little guilty and incredulous at the sight of the stack of books she was picking up. Bent down to help her and put them on a cart she had apparently been using. Embry handed her the last book and apologized. The girl sighed, and pushed her bags out of her face. And said softly that it was ok. But by then Embry was already lost in beautiful hazel almond shaped eyes.

Since Embry's brain seemed to cease function, and could only focus on the fact that he just met his anchor to the world. The girl quietly rose and put the last book on her cart and turned to smile at Embry and his breath caught.

Embry couldn't understand he knew what was happening and it was unbelievable. And when she smiled he didn't think it was possible, she became more beautiful. No alluring, whoa this imprint thing was starting to change his vocabulary.

Embry was broken out of his trains of thought. When a tentative voice rose ''Are you ok? You look a little out of it?'' Embry grinned she was talking to him. Shaking his head, ''Yeah, I'm fine. Sorry about knocking your books over.'' The girl pursed her lips which Embry of course thought was adorable. ''Are you sure? I mean you said you're fine, but you shook your head. Which is a natural indicator of saying no or disagreeing. It's one of the easiest way to tell when someone's lying.''

Embry grinned apparently his imprint was clever, ''I'm fine really.''

She pursed her lips again and nodded slowly ''If you say so, and don't worry about the books it's an occupational hazard. Besides that wasn't the first time I dropped a huge pile of books and it won't be the last.''

Embry focused on the occupational hazard part, ''You work here.''

''Yup.'' she said emphasising the ''p'' showing him her employee id hanging on a lanyard.

''So, you live in Forks?'' asked Embry trying to be casual praying that he was succeeding

She smiled a small smile and gave him an exaggerated nod ''Uh-huh, I'm guessing you don't?''

''Nah, I'm too cool for a town named after a kitchen utensil.''

He was rewarded with a muffled laugh and a huge grin.

''Yeah the name's kind of stupid, so where are you from sasquatch?''

He stopped and stared. He watched as her expression turned solemn as if she had said the wrong thing. Right as she opened up her mouth to speak, he suddenly couldn't take it he laughed.

Clearly and loudly. Then the most amazing thing happened she laughed too, loudly and freely.

Then they heard the most ominous sound to be made in a library ''Shhh!''

Embry met her wide eyes and watched as she reigned in her laughter.

And then she swatted his arms and hissed at him ''You're gonna make me lose my job.''

It might have been effective if she wasn't grinning so widely.

Which then almost set them off into another bout of laughter. But they fought it off valiantly.

When they both had their laughter under control. Embry realized he didn't know her name, it didn't say on her employee Id, just L. Munoz. Which wasn't really all that helpful.

''I'm Embry and I'm from La Push.''

''Hmm?''

''My name's Embry and I'm from La Push you know the Native American Reservation''

She smiled up at him ''Linda or Lin from Fort Worth, but I moved here recently.''

Embry extended his hand to give her hand shake, really wanting to hug her tight.

Because she was his imprint, he just met her and that was amazing.

She shook his hand, and Embry noticed how small and soft it was. He soon realized how tiny she was.

She couldn't be over 5ft maybe 5'1. She looked 16.

And then Embry's attention was diverted, by a snort Linda, Lin made. He looked up at her seeing her hand over her mouth.

He raised an eyebrow. She shook her head.

''Sorry and I'm probably just being weird. But come on ''My name's Embry and I'm from La Push.''

Embry raised his eyebrow slightly worried he did something wrong.

She shook her head again, ''Oh come on, you don't get it.''

Embry shook his head no.

His Imprint huffed '' I'm Linda and I'm from Fort Worth and I'm an Alcoholic.''

Embry just let out one word ''What?'' His mind racing.

''Ugh… Ok maybe my brother and sister are right I have a weird sense of humor. But the way we introduce ourselves reminded me of alcoholics anonymous meetings. You know how they're all like I'm what's-his-face and I'm a…. You know.'' Linda said eyebrow raised.

With each word Embry's smile grew she was too cute.

''Well um… I need to get back to work.''

''Wait!'' Embry whispered shouted as Linda walked away.

''Yeah?'' Linda turned around

''Could you help me find some books for school?''

''Sure'' she said smiling ''It's kind of my job.''

So in the summer on a random Thursday, Embry imprinted and Linda helped him with his history project. That helped him pass and impressed his teacher enough to the point where he was nicer to him throughout the rest of summer school. Suffice to say if you asked what Embry's favorite day is he would say Thursday.

Authors Note: I really had fun writing this, hope you like it. I know Embry is usually depicted as shy. To me this was a shy Embry who was very excited, I'm shy but if I'm excited or in a good mood I talk a lot more than I normally would. I intended this to be a oneshot but I might keep going with it. I already have ideas so please let me know what you think.
