JACOB'S POV
Chapter 2: Stranger Danger
She gasped in surprise. It made me laugh and she frowned in response.
"How do you know my name?" she asked a hint of annoyance in her tone now.
Oh crap… wasn't expecting that question.
"Magic," I said slyly.
She seemed to consider this for a moment, opened her mouth to say something, and then decided against it. She moved on to her next question.
"Why are you talking to me?"
Wasn't expecting that one either. I seriously should have thought this through more carefully.
"I think the more important question is why you are talking to a strange guy in the woods," I said.
She pursed her lips, "I could stop if you want."
"No!" I said, it came out harsher then I meant. "I mean I want to talk to you."
"Can I at least see you?" she asked.
I stepped out from behind the tree. She looked at me for a couple seconds and seemed to deem me safe because she sat down on the grass and looked like she wanted to continue our conversation. I sat down too, making sure I was slightly hidden by a bush.
"I'll tell you anything you want to know," I said with a smile.
She thought for a while.
"How did you really know my name?"
"Well, we used to be friends when you were a baby," I answered.
"I don't remember that."
I didn't expect her to remember, but it still hurt to hear.
"You were very young," I said quietly.
"How old are you?"
"I'm 17."
"You don't look 17."
"I had a growth spurt."
"Why aren't you in school?"
"Uh… I finished early."
"Where do you live?"
"La Push."
It went on like that for the rest of recess. She would ask a question and I would answer it as honestly as possible. By the time the bell rang, she had asked a ton of questions. She truly seemed interested in what I had to say.
"I have to go now," she said in a disappointed voice.
"Ok, bye Nessie, it was nice talking to you."
"Will you be back tomorrow?" she asked, slightly hopeful.
"Only if you want me to."
"I do!" she answered, almost too quickly.
"Ok, then I'll see you tomorrow," I said with a chuckle, "and one more thing. If you want to see me again, we have to keep this a secret. You can't even think about it."
"Ok Jacob." She seemed to understand what I was getting at. She waved to me and then ran off towards the school. I couldn't believe how well that went. It was definitely more than I could have hoped for. I ran back into the woods, phasing in the process.
"Creep," said Leah.
"I kinda have to agree with Leah on this one," said Embry.
"Shut up guys! You don't know what it's like," I retorted.
"Jake, you're freaking talking to an eight year old during recess. Do you know how weird that is? If her family finds out, you are SO dead," said Leah.
I howled in response and Quil joined us. He watched the replay of what had just happened with Nessie in my head. I needed someone else who had imprinted to back me up here.
"Dude," said Quil, "Even I think it's pretty weird."
"Argh! You guys are not help! Quil, what if you weren't allowed to see Claire anymore? Wouldn't you do anything just to make sure that she was okay and happy?"
"Well yeah, I guess but-"
"THEN CAN'T YOU SEE WHERE I'M COMING FROM!"
"Umm... sure Jake," he said. I could still sense the doubt in his tone.
I mumbled something about being unhelpful and then phased back. I was pretty damn annoyed at everyone at this point. Well, everyone except Nessie.
Please Review and give feedback! I would love to know what you think...
