Hey guys just wanted to say this story is for people who were happy for Bella to stay with Edward so you could ave Jacob all to yourself
Chapter 1: (MPOV)
I sped down the highway going way to fast looking at the blurred scenery. It was all so green, so full of life. It was nothing like home. I was used to dry shrubs and eucalypt trees and the sun blaring down warming me. There was no sun here it was cloudy and cold. I was going to miss it's warmth. Oh well there was no going back now, no way I could ever go back I guess I just had to accept my new life in America.
I sign came up at the side of the road welcoming me to La Push, Washington
Great, I was here. My new home, I doubted this place could ever truly feel like home. I drove up and down the streets taking in the small town, it had a few shops and houses but not much else. Then I drove past the beach and although it was overcast the beach still looked beautiful. The water on the beach was flat but I could see like waves crashing off the point. It looked like my surfboard might be out to some good use after all. I Drove a while trying to find the right address to my new house. I pulled up to my new home with my new 'family'. I have to remember to be kind to these people they didn't have to let me stay with them I should be happy they are excepting me at all. The house was small and cosy like a beachside cottage, I knocked on the front door. A man answered it he was mid 50's and in a wheelchair. "Hi" I said to him "I'm M, I'm meant to be staying with you for a while."
"Ah yes, welcome to La Push. I'm William Black, but please just call me Billy."
He seemed so kind, I felt bad, he was so oblivious to the danger I put him in by merely staying here. For all he knew I was just staying with him as a request from an old mate, "my dad".
"Ok Billy it is. Thankyou for letting me stay here it's so kind of you."
"No problem at all, anything for an old friend. How is your dad going by the way?"
"ahh, Great yeh, he's doing great" I said hoping he didn't pick up the tone in my voice
"I'm glad to here, let me show you around"
He took me on a guided tour of the small house showing me every room. Then he came to the room next to mine. The door was locked.
"This is my son's room, Jacob. He's out at the moment, and just as a warning, he isn't exactly happy about me letting you stay here" he admitted.
"But don't worry" he said looking at my face. "He'll come around"
Then he showed me to my room. It was small, but it was nice. There was a large single bed with a pink doona in the middle of the room and a desk and chair in one corner with a computer, more than I thought I deserved.
"This used to be my eldest daughters room before she moved out."
"Well thankyou, it's perfect"
I walked in and dumped my bags on the floor.
"I'll leave you alone to get settled" He said, then walked away to start dinner.
So this was it my new home. It wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. Billy seemed nice and my room was good. All I was really worried about was his son. I hoped he wouldn't hate me too much. I was dreading meeting him, I didn't want to make an enemy in my own home. It felt worrying about such petty things when I should really have been worrying about the bigger problem at hand.
I hated going into hiding but it was my only option I had to stay safe and if this was the only way of keeping safe I had to except it. Maybe it wouldn't be so bad.
Even though I'd had to change my name, my family and almost everything about me there were some things I couldn't change like where I was from my accent gave it away. I was Australian and I was shit at accents and to even try to put on an American accent would just make me sound ridiculous.
I also couldn't change my appearance, I was tall for 16 and people often thought I was older. I was tanned from all my time on the beach surfing and was bleached blonde from the sun. But there were something that distinguished me the silver crescent shaped scar on my shoulder. Every time I look at it I cringe as all the horrible memories come rushing back. I hid it underneath my long unstyled hair.
I yawned suddenly realising how sleepy I was after the long plan flight and collapsed on the bed falling into and nightmare filled sleep.
When I awoke it was dark. I looked at my clock, Three o'clock in the morning I must have slept through dinner and now I was starving.
I snuck out of my room and into the kitchen. After figuring out where everything was I grabbed a bowl from the cupboard and some cornflakes from pantry although what I was really craving was some vegemite on toast.
I was onto my second bowl when I sensed someone behind me. I turned around slowly to see the most gorgeous person I had ever seen. He was unbelievably tall with shiny black hair flowing down past his chin. He was topless and very fit; every muscle was so well defined, bulging out of his deeply tanned skin, the body of a god (so cliché). I looked finally, up at his face, it was just as beautiful as the rest of him, but still so youthful, I was amazed, if this was who I though it was he could not have been 16. I stared at his expression, he seemed amused but not mad, as I thought he would be.
"Hungry?" he said amused, smiling at me. Oh his smile, it was so perfect it made me feel warm inside.
"Starving" I admitted to him
"I'm Jacob" he said still smiling
"M" I said my mouth full of food. He laughed.
"So you're the Australian girl dad was talking about."
"Yep that's me"
"Not meaning to sound rude but why did you come to live with us?"
"Oh" I said unsure of what to say "Well uhhhh… it's kind of a long story" his face was so welcoming I wanted to tell him everything but I knew it wouldn't be right.
"I got time" he said smiling at me
"I don't really want to talk about it" it was all I could say "I don't mean to seem rude it's just too soon"
"Don't worry about it another time?"
"Yeh another time" I said forcing a smile. I hated keeping my whole life a secret but I didn't have a choice.
"You're dad said you were mad about me coming to say here but you seem happy enough to me"
"I wasn't too happy about it, but I could never be mad at someone like you".
"Someone like me?" I said a little confused.
"There's just something about you, I can't put my finger on it"
I didn't know what to say and after that neither did he.
"So…" I said after a while breaking the silence "what do you around this place to have fun."
"I'll show you" he said smiling knowingly at me "Tomorrow, I'll give you a tour of La Push."
"It's a date" I said smiling at him. Hang on was I flirting with this guy.
"But now you better get back to sleep you look tired; I'll see you in the morning".
"In the morning" I agreed yawning and headed back to bed.
