house."

"Ok we're on our way." Man no matter how many times I hear it I will never get over the pack plural.

I walked back up to my room not wanting my kids to see me like this. I lied down on my bed wishing that I could just fall asleep sometimes. If only I could. I always could tell when Jacob was around, by the heavy padder of feet. But this time they were on my roof. I already knew what he planned on doing. I do sometimes regret giving him the button that unlocked and opened the trap door. Right on cue the door opened, and Jacob jumped down landing on top of me.

"Grrr" He said pretending to take bites of me.

I turned over and sat up so he could look me in the eyes. "Are you okay?" He asked.

"Yeah. I just never thought that they would come back. It doesn't matter. I have you and the kids and Charlie. That's all I need." I said with a half hearted smile. I knew that he could tell that I was still baffled by this.

"The pack stopped by there house. The Cullens are all moved in." He said with a disgusted face.

"Okay. How much of the food did you guys eat?" I asked Jacob wantinhg to know the extent of the damage that had been done to my fridge.

"You might need to go grocery shopping again in a couple days."

"Uh.. you guys are going to eat me out of house and home. Forget it. I'll just go back later. What was Billy doing when you guys left?" Billy moved in with us. I couldn't imagine him on his own.

"He was getting ready to come over here, to watch a football game with Charlie." He smiled at me. It was a mistevious smile so I knew tht he was up to something.

Next thing I knew I was air born. Jake threw me into the air so that He could lay on the bed. I landed on top of him. He kissed me the minute I was on him. He was holding my waist while I was holding his hair. We probaly looked like a sene from a movie. The guy sneaks into the girls house without her parents knowing.

Jake was me hero. He was the guy in the movie who always got the prettty girl. It all started back when he stopped me from jumping of the cliff. Instead of me jumping, like an idiot, by myself for the first time; he grabbed my waist and we jumped together. I was totally safe. Even though the water was choppy I was okay.

We continued kissing until we heard many little taps on the door to my room.

"Come in" Jacob yelled pulling my face from his.

"Daddy!" The kids came in yelling in perfect harmony.

"When did you get here?" Abbigale said tugging on Jake's arm.

"I just got here. I came through the roof." Both kids looked up on the ceiling to see if there was a whole in it. Naturally there wasn't so they didn't believe him.

"No you didn't. There is no hole." Joshua said while Abby nodded her head in agrrement.

"Ok. Fine you caught me. I came through the winow before your mommy trapped us all in here." He said laughing sarcasticly to the children.

" Ha. Ha. Let's all laugh at mommy for taking precaution." I said with a bit of an attitude. I am still nineteen. So I still have teenage hormones. Not my fault.

I remembered that I was going to cook dinner tonight so I said " Who wants to help me cook dinner tonight for grandpa Charlie and Grandpa Billy?"

Before I could even finish what I was saying they started jumping up and down saying "Me, Me I want to help."

"Then Jacob cleared his throat pointing to himself. " Oh, and who want's to help make a second battch for Daddy?" I said staring at Jake with amuzed eyes.

Again they both jumped up and down yelling. " I do, I do." While they were jumping up and down yelling they were pulling on my arm and Jakes arm at the same time. We walked down stairs into the kitchen. We all washed our hands and we all started to cook. I decided that we were going to cook Charlie's favorite. Granms Swan's Beef Strouganof. It didn't take long to cook. Exspecialy since I had three extra pairs of hands helping me. Once I got dinner on the table I excused myself and stepped out side. I went into the back yard and climbed up my favorite tree.

I liked this tree for many diffrent reasons. One, was because it wa high off of the ground. Two, because near the top five diffrent branches intertwined into each other creating my own little nest. layed down in my little nest thinking of every thing that was going on right now. I dug in my pocket for my little vile of blood. Before the transermation was complete, I asked Jake to get a small vile of my blood. Even though that was the weirdest request known to man he did it any way.

I was almost totally relaxed when I heard a noise. I sat up and stiffed the air. It wasn't a wolf because I would've smelled their scent. It was a vampire. Then I heard an all to familiar voice.

"You know, I would've thought that with time you would've gotten a sense for fashion. I was terribly wrong. Look at what your wearing. It should be illegal."

I looked to my left to see Alice standing next to me with a smile on her face. I haven't seen Alice in so long. I forgot how tiny and pixie like she was.

" Hi Bella." She whispered now.

"Alice!" I jumped up and gave her a big hug I was so excited to see her.

"Hi Bella." she said again.

"How are you Alice?" I was sooo happy right now.

"I'm good. I see that you finally became one of us. I always new it was going to happen sometime."

"Well you were certainly right. And don't think I'm going to forget the comment about my clothes. I dress perfectly acceptable for a lawyer." I said with a smirk.

"You're a lawyer now congrats. We should go celebrate some time soon." She said hugging me again.

"You would think that when you became one of us, that I would be able to hear your thoughts. I too, like Alice, was wrong." A seductive voice said from behind me. I turned around to see my first love. Edward Cullen. I turned back to Alice. You could see the hurt and pain in my eyes.

"How could you." I muttered.

"Bella you need to talk to him. There's no use in running back to Charlie's house. Emmett and Jasper are blocking it."

"Fine, I won't go to Charlie's. I have some where else I can hide." With that I took off in the direction of the Quilluete border.

" Alice stop her. Those Mutts will rip her to shreds." Edward yelled to Alice.

If that's what they thought then let them think that. I didn't have far now. And I could already hear the wolves running to the border line. I bounded over the edge of the river into 'no mans land' and did a backflip over the line of wolves to land directly behind Sam.

"Alice and Edward stared at me in amazment. I stared back at them with a dark look in my eyes.

"I suggest that you don't pull any thing like that ever again." I said this in a cold tone. If they were wise they would take this warning. It's the only warning they get.

I Started walking back into the village, telling the wolves to come on back with me. The wolve growled one last time at the two Cullen family members who were still staring after me. I let down my shield to tell Edward one thing.

'Try something like that again and I'll rip your head off. I'm not fragile Bella any more.' I turned back around to see Edward get wide eyed. He opened his mouth so that it made an o. I Sent him a giggle in my head then I closed back up my shield. When he left me he took my soft side with him.

I ran back to La Push with the wolves on my tail. If they were to let me get hurt Jacob would literally kill them. When I reached our house I turned to the wolves promising that I was safe. I ran to the phone and called Jacobs cell. He picked up on the second ring.

"Hello" a husky voice said into the phone.

"Hey, Honey. It's Bella."

"Bella what are you doing at home. I thought you were in the back yard at Charlie's house?"

"I was but the ... Cullens showed up. Then I bounded off into the woods, and crossed the boundary line and the Pack walked me home." The line went silent.


Chapter 2

Jake made it there in like ten minutes flat.

"I left the Lids with Charlie. Now please explain what happened."

"Okay, I was in the woods. The Cullens showed up. I got mad. Ran away. They tried to stop me. They didn't. The pack walked me home. End of story."
