Two: My life Is just one boring film

Nessie flung herself into Aaron's arms as he approached. I felt a tear trickle down my face as I watched them embrace then kiss passionately. I could tell by the other pupils, I wasn't the only one feeling jealousy. "Baby much?" I heard a girl's titter to the right. I didn't even look to see who the mouthy kid was. I could kill her right now if I wanted. And I realized I did. Bad Sign. I felt a burning in the pit of my stomach.

Lets make this easy Seth called in my head. I had forgotten they were watching. The burning and anger was building. I followed Seth's advice and bounded back into the woods. I stood in a clearing and gently removed my clothing. For a few seconds I stood before leaping up and embracing the monster I truly was.

I dashed through the woods and thought deep. This was what happened with Bella. As soon as I got rejection I had bolted. See how that turned out. I wasn't going to take this lying down. I was going to win this time. Gradually I slowed my pace and took a sense of direction. I decided to get as near to home as possible and then make a dash for it. I usually found myself in awkward and embarrassing situations such as this. I felt like an idiot. Naked in the shadows.

"These might help?" I turned in my human form to see Sam Uley holding the clothes I had abandoned in the clearing. I was shocked. What was he doing here? Why was he talking to me? What did he want?

"Thank-you." I tried not to let a hint of emotion in, but failed. He could see my confusion. Although we had both seen each other in this way before I felt embarrassed in front of my enemy stark naked. "Have you come to taunt me?" I questioned. I pulled on my jeans hastily.

"As much as you would like to believe I hate you, you have to except that I don't. We must have a friendship, even if the only purpose it may serve is the protection of La Push and our families." Sam replied like he had thought of this answer a while ago.

"What do you want then?" I grunted.

"I'm here to ask you a favor, can I trust you to accept?"

"What is it? Can we discuss this inside?"

"No, do you want to phase inside?"

"So this is going to make me angry eh?"

"I want you to stop spying on Aaron when he's at school." I felt anger burn up inside me. I didn't want to phase again, I had to stop changing every five minuets these days. I was obsessed. Less human than usual. How did Aaron know I was spying on him? Or rather him and Nessie. Was he out to make my life even more hell.

"It's my business." I said lamely.

"Listen, it's not only you that feeling bad about the whole situation! You realize that Cullen is going to spent the rest of eternity wallowing in this mess. She's going to have to live with it - just like you are. She has to get on with her life."

"She's doesn't have a life, she half-vampire. She's dead!"

"Jacob, just leave Aaron alone. It's really not his fault he imprinted. He was kind. He didn't tell you at first. When he met her he didn't make a move on her. But, he can only stay away for so long."

"Does he realized that the feeling he had for a few months, is what I have been enduring for 6 years!"

"Jacob-"

"Sam, listen to me. It's not fair, I was here first!" I realized I sounded like a kid who wanted to be first in the line. I swallowed, trying to contain myself.

"Jacob, you need to consider Cullen." Sam tried to reason.

"She has a name." I hated the way Sam didn't showed little respect for the Cullen's. He had no idea the pain and effort Seth and Leah had to endure in my pack being around Vampires for so long. He wouldn't last a day with me.

"What she is feeling is special, we're talking here about two people who are in love. Let them be. Please." I realized what Sam had said was true. They were in love. There was nothing I could do. Pulling on my t-shirt I walked out of the trees and up towards my house.

I'd got my own place now. A converted barn in the wasteland between La Push and Forks in the Quillayute. I rarely saw anybody near my house. I heard Sam turn away and walk into the forest. I pushed open the door. Inside it was dark and dusty. All that was inside was an old TV I'd bought for a tenner at a garage sale, a sleeping bag, a crummy sofa and some camping equipment including a portable stove and fridge. It was small, uncomfortable and run-down but anything was better than home with Dad. I felt like a kid, he was always on my back.

I pulled off my shirt, even though I'd just put it on. I was sweating in the heat. I thrust open the windows to let some air in. I checked the time. Just gone 9am. I was so bored. I never had anything to do these days. I couldn't get a job or go to school, way too risky. But then again what else would I have to do. I needed to sort this out big time. I heard a knock on the door. Before I could get up, Leah marched in, wrinkling her nose. "This place smells!" She complained, closing the door and turning on the faulty light Dad had installed for me.

"Tell me about it." I groaned switching the TV on. Leah sat down next to me, scraping her hair back into a ponytail. I could see she was hot too, her face was wet with sweat. Since the pack began. Leah and I had become better friends. She still had a temper with me, but there wasn't a tension. Not like before.

"Hey, Jake - I want to go to school. I hate hanging around with nothing to do!" Leah practically spoke what I was thinking. "I mean, sure being like this is fun, but I want to go too school. I can control my temper. I'm not an idiot."

"Ok."

"Wow, that was easy." She chuckled. "I thought you'd be more difficult."

"I'm not in the mood." We sat in silence watching the TV all morning. Nothing could be more relaxing.
