I looked around the rez, it was just as I remembered it from six years ago. The woods, the earthy smell, and the poverty. I sighed, wondering for the million time if this was a good idea. Probably not. I had the sudden urge to laugh at the whole thing. They would probably kick me out before I could say 'Hi'.
Honestly, I didn't know what I was trying to prove, or to whom; Gosh I was so insane. And so dead if this didn't work out.
Maybe going back was what I needed to move on.
Jacob held my hand tightly while the adults buried my mother, but I didn't feel anything, I was frozen, numb, empty. Alone.
"I'll take care of you, Mac," He vowed firmly. I nodded shakingly, silently thanking him for being there. The cold winter weather didn't really bothered me, because there was a new cold that came from within me. I didn't pay attention to it at first, but then Jake looked at me frowning, "Are you okay?"
"Y...yes," I stuttered, panicked because of the increasing chill running through my limbs.
"But you're freezing...-"
"I said I was fine!"
Icycles flew from my hands in every direction. Jake ducked to protect himself from the deadly ice fragments, but still some sliced his arms.
What did just happen?
Billy Black was suddenly beside Jacob, helping him out. More people gathered around to see if he was okay, Harry Clearwater approached with Sue to help Billy.
"You're a freak!" Paul yelled. Leah smacked his arm.
"Shut up, you're an asshole!" She defended me then, but shot me a look that echoed everybody else's. You don't belong here.
I shook my head. I was eighteen now, and this was my home, my mom was buried in this place. I wasn't going to leave until at least I got the chance to see her grave.
She was the one that started everything hooking up with a vampire.
