This is the result of writer's block.

This happens about one year after my story about Kim and Jared (No Way) and is Kim's POV at the bonfire. I think it would be about a year, feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.

One-shot.

I don't own any of the Twilight-characters, but I do own Alex and Jamie.


"How come we've never been to one of these before?" I asked as I jumped out of the car.

"Dunno," Jarred shrugged and grabbed my hand. We started walking towards the assemblage of people on the cliff top meeting place.

"Okay," I said, playing with his fingers a little. "Who's going to be here?"

"Everyone, I think. The pack and the elders, and Emily. Jacob is bringing Bella," he told me.

Bella.

Right.

I'd of course hear all about her by now. And I must admit that I didn't really like her. I'd gotten to know Jacob along with the other wolf-boys over the past year, and I knew how much this Bella-girl had hurt him. By choosing a freaking vampire over him.

That was just disturbing.

She obviously needed to get someone to check if she really was sane.

Jared noticed the change in my pace, and hurriedly came to her defense.

"She isn't that bad, Kim," he said. "I think you'll like her."

Doubt it.

"Sure," I said.

Usually I was nice and non-judgmental. I could try to give her a chance. Maybe I'd be surprised.

"Is Alex coming?" Jared asked, changing the subject.

"I asked her. And she said she'd come if Jamie came," I said with a smile. Jamie was Alex's new gorgeous boyfriend. Or, new... Not exactly new. They'd been dating for a while, but they hadn't made it "official" before recently. I liked Jamie much better than I liked Cameron. Jamie was one of those cute, shy guys who had way too much free time. He was pretty clever too, good in school, which made him the complete opposite of Alex.

Gina wasn't as approving of him as me, and was rather cold to the poor guy. He didn't seem to notice, or he purposely ignored it, and his eyes were for Alex only.

Despite myself, I couldn't help but being eager to see Bella. When she finally arrived, I was surprised. She wasn't anything like I had expected. Or, I hadn't known what to expect, but I was still surprised.

She wasn't extraordinary beautiful, more average looking. There was nothing wrong with her features, but they weren't that defined either. She had thick, dark hair which I envied at once. I had always hated my own flat hair. Her skin was so pale it was almost see-through, almost like porcelain.

I even got a little jealous when I saw how the guys greeted her, like she was welcome or something. She wasn't!

"Hey, vampire girl!" Embry exclaimed as soon as he saw her. Even Quil showed a different side of himself by jumping to his feet and kissing her cheek. He pulled back with a slight grimace, which made me want to chuckle. She probably reeked of vampire.

"Care to keep the bloodsucker stench downwind?" Paul complained, and a few people laughed quietly. Bella just smiled. I honestly didn't get it. What was it with people? She wasn't anything special. Not in my head.

I smiled politely at her when she caught my eyes, and she smiled back. She seemed shy too.

I grumbled quietly as I saw that we actually might have some things in common.

Jared pulled me closer into his warm embrace, and I leaned in eagerly, quickly forgetting everything about the Bella-girl.

Alex and Jamie came stumbling through the forest fifteen minutes later, both of them smiling wildly as they joined us.

"What happened to you?" I asked, chuckling as I removed a leaf from Alex's curls.

"Got lost," she giggled before turning her attention to the ever-so-quiet Jamie. He must be different when they were alone.

"Do you ever stop eating?" I asked as Jared helped himself to another hot dog. I didn't have a number for how many he had eaten. I did not envy the person who had to make all this food. He grinned.

"I'm a growing boy," he told me. I rolled my eyes. "Aren't you hungry?" he asked me.

"I'm crammed full," I answered honestly. I'd eaten three and almost felt guilt about it.

"Because you're so small," he grinned.

"Watch it," I told him and poked his side. He poked me back, and I jumped. He chuckled when I glared, so I smiled too. I relaxed against his chest again, and noticed Bella's eyes on us. She looked as us curiously, with her eyes narrowed in concentration.

Be careful, you don't want your last brain cell to work itself to death, I though sarcastically. She looked away when she realized she was caught staring, and turned her attention to Jacob again.

It was so nice to see Jacob smiling. He had never been as content as the rest of the pack, because of his unhappy love for Bella. Now he was glowing like he was the happiest man on earth.

It would crush him when she left again. Or at least when he finally realized she wasn't for him. He hadn't imprinted on her, and it would be freeing for him when he finally did imprint on someone.

"Besides, Paul has eaten much more than me," Jared said, pulling me out of my thoughts. I looked at Paul, who right now was catching a hot dog someone – probably Jacob – had thrown to him. I chuckled.

"Paul eats for fifty men," I told him.

"Oh? What about me?" Jared asked with a smile in his voice.

"Thirty," I answered, tilting my head back so that I could see his face. He leaned down and kissed the tip of my nose, and I giggled stupidly. He put both of his arms around me, seeming to be finished eating – finally – and dragged me possessively closer to him.

I'd wisely put on thin layers today. With the warmth from the fire added with the flaming temperature radiating from Jared's skin I was close to sweating. The weak wind didn't help at all.

I started dazing off after a while, but was woken up by Jared shaking me lightly.

"What?" I asked in a muffled voice.

"Didn't you want to hear the legends?" Jared asked in my ear. I instantly paid attention, trying to scoot myself up in a more sitting position. Jared helped me up automatically.

I looked around to see everyone else straighten up too, like this was very formal. I saw Jacob swing his arms over Bella's shoulders and his eyes lit up by the touch. She looked completely oblivious to it, barely meeting his eyes as he whispered something into her ear.

That girl was really getting on my nerves.

I once again forgot all about my jealous disliking towards her as Billy Black started telling the legends of the tribe, changing the whole atmosphere around the fire.

As exciting as the stories might be, I couldn't help it but nodding off against Jared's chest a few times. He nudged me repeatedly, so I never fell quite out of the story.

At last I drifted off to a deep sleep, and wasn't woken up till after the story-telling was finished. I groaned, displeased with myself for missing out on the end, and started getting up. I looked to Alex and Jamie, and had to laugh.

They were both leaning against a big rock, and Alex had her eyes closed while leaning her head on Jamie's shoulder. He had his head on top of hers, and they were both obviously sleeping.

I crouched down and shook Alex awake. She opened her eyes, confused, and looked around herself frantically.

"You have to get home," I told her, smiling. She frowned.

"Right!" she said as realization washed over her. She nearly attacked Jamie, grabbing his shoulders and roughly shaking him. "Jamie!" she yelled. She obviously wasn't completely awake yet.

"Ready to go?" Jared asked, chuckling a little at Alex and Jamie. I nodded, noticing everyone else ad also started to leave.

Most of the pack-guys were already gone, only Sam was there to help Emily tidy things up, and the elders were stalling a little too. I saw Jacob scoop Bella up into his arms – she was fast asleep – and starting to carry her away. Once again I was that little glimpse in his eyes when he touched her. Even though she was asleep it made me mad that she didn't respond to him.

"You're burning a hole in that girl with your eyes," Jared pointed out when he saw what I was looking at, and nudged me a little to get my attention.

"'Cause she annoys me," I defended myself quickly.

"I would never have guessed that," Jared said sarcastically. I stuck my tongue out at him playfully.

"And you thought I'd like her," I scoffed.

"Hey, I'm allowed to hope," he said, grinning. I rolled my eyes.

"She still annoys me," I muttered. I made a small leap over s root that was standing up right in the middle of the path. I landed on my foot in a weird angle, and stumbled forwards.

Before I had time to collect myself, I was being lifted from the ground.

"Hi," I giggled as Jared positioned me in his arms. He grinned.

"You shouldn't be walking. It's not good for you," he noted casually. Then he added: "Why does she annoy you?"

"'Cause she's… too perfect," I said.

"Why?"

"Because she is. She has zero personality, and yet everybody loves her," I explained. Jared snorted.

"Everybody doesn't love her," he said, rolling his eyes.

"It sure looked like it."

"They were just being nice. Jacob told us to be."

"Then what do you think of her?"

"Me?"

"Mhm," I said impatiently. Jared paused for a second.

"She's boring. Too plain. And she needs to sort out her priorities," he listed off. I giggled again girlishly.

"Good to know," I said. "And she makes Jake feel like shit. I don't like her."

"Be nice," Jared scolded.

"Oh, I am," I assured him, dramatically nodding my head for emphasize. Jared dragged me up closer and kissed me swiftly.

"You're cute when you're jealous," he noted.

I opened my mouth to protest, but closed it when I understood he was right.

"Yeah, yeah," I grumbled defeated.


What do you think?? Good, bad??

Also, I've decided to write a sequel to "No way". I just have to write the last couple pf chapters..

I'm no good with endings.

I don't like it.

But I know the plot of the sequel!!

It involves Alex and Jamie, if you hadn't already guessed that.

And more Gina.

And more Kim and Jared.

I think it will be fun.

Please review, I'm gonna go write the next chapter in "No Way".

I know what to write, but I can't seem to get it right!

It's not good.

I hate endings!!

A review always makes me happy!!
