Chapter 2

The weekend had approached quicker than I anticipated. Jacob had been busier than usual this week. He kept spouting things about his garage and the reservation. He was the future chief of the tribe and I knew that that entailed a lot of responsibility. I was okay with it. I mean, I was bored and lonely, but I could live with it.

Also, Jacob being so busy meant that he wouldn't pester me about my secretive text messages and phone calls. It meant that the party that I was going to would remain a secret for a little while longer. By a little while longer, I meant forever. If Jacob knew about me partying he would be pissed.

He wouldn't be the only pissed person that I'd have to deal with though. I'd have to deal with Amber and Nate jumping down my throats. Jacob would snitch because he'd think that it would be the right thing to do. So, I knew that if I could hide it from Jacob then I could hide it from Amber.

Amber thought that I was spending the night over Maggie's house, which I was. However, I was going to dance my ass off before I decided to do that. Maggie's parents were really cool about her going to parties and stuff so she didn't have to hide and sneak around; only me.

I was at Maggie's house checking my reflection in my phone. I had to say that I looked drop dead gorgeous. I mean, that's how I looked most times, but I thought I looked even more gorgeous than usual.

I made it a purpose to curl my hair a little bit and even decided to wear a little lipstick. I was fucking smoking. Not literally, because I'm asthmatic, but ya know what I mean.

Maggie drove us to Dave's house. It was on the edge of Forks and was kind of far off. It was a good thing because that meant that we wouldn't have complaints from cranky neighbors. It meant that there would be absolutely no chance of unwanted visitors, ahem Jacob, because it was on the exact opposite side of LaPush. It was perfect.

The plan was this: I'd go, dance until my heart gave out, and drive an inebriated Maggie home later on in the evening, or earlier in the morning. Maggie would be trying her best to seduce Onorato and make him fall madly in love with her. I'd be wingman to the best of my abilities and I'd also be Maid of Honor at her wedding.

We pulled up to the house and we could already see that the party was in full swing. There were a ton of Forks High students in the front yard, dancing, groping, and drinking.

We got out of Maggie's red punch buggy, I mean Volkswagen Beetle, and we were assaulted with "hellos" and "hi" from everyone. It was nice being popular and well liked at school.

I saw Dave run up to us from inside the house. I put on my fake smile and let him wrap his arms around me. It was no secret that Dave liked me. There were few boys at my school that didn't.

"I'm so glad you guys could make it," he said, giving Maggie a hug. "How could we miss it?" I asked him, a fake smile still plastered on my lips. He gave me a bright smile and started tugging on my hand. "You wanna dance?" he asked me. I shrugged. "Sure." What harm could a little dance do?

"I'm going to go look for Prince Charming," Maggie called out to me. Maggie had a determined look on her face. I knew that she could do it if she really wanted to. Maggie was beautiful.

Dave pulled me into the cramped area that was his living room. There were grinding bodies everywhere. It was dark and kind of hot, but the music was blasting and that's all that mattered to me.

Dave pulled me to him, my back to his front. I started swaying my hips to the beat and Dave followed behind me. Dave's arms were around his waist and his hands were splayed across my stomach.

I could feel an erection growing in Dave's pants and I started freezing. I wasn't going to keep dancing if his sausage was pressed up against me like that. It made me want to become a vegetarian.

Dave pushed my hair to one side of my neck and pushed his face close to my ear. Oh, god! This kid was going to whisper in my ear.

"Do you want to go somewhere more private?" Dave asked, his penis still pushing against my backside. I rolled my eyes. "I just came here to dance, dude. I don't really wanna go anywhere with you." I tried to move but his hands were still pressed against my stomach and he wouldn't let me go. I started to feel a little panic.

"Why are you such a little tease?" he asked me, his voice deep and his breath smelling of alcohol. Good grief, Charlie Brown. "I didn't realize that dancing was considered teasing," I told him trying to push his hands away.

"Look, I can make sure we both have a good time. Just give in. You know you want to," Dave was still pushing his crotch into my ass. I tried to control my breathing. I didn't want him to know that he was making me lose my cool. "You're always around that Native dude. What? Is he like your bodyguard or something?" he asked.

I rolled my eyes again. "Something like that. Look, Dave. Let me go. It's not going to happen," I told him quietly. He chuckled and pulled me impossibly closer. "What if I don't want to let you go?" he sneered. I made room to elbow him in his side, but I didn't have the time. Dave was quickly pulled away from me.

I turned around to see Onorato gripping Dave by his shoulder. "I believe she asked you to leave her alone," he said in his accent. Dave looked like he was shaking in his boots. He put his hands up to show that he was going to back away. Onorato's hold on him didn't loosen, however.

"You should apologize," Onorato ordered. Dave looked at me with a frantic expression on his face. "I'm sorry, Melissa," he said, his teeth chattering in fright. I had to admit, Onorato looked absolutely lethal. I nodded my head and Onorato finally released him.

Onorato grabbed my hand and led me out of the house. I looked around frantically for Maggie. I couldn't find her. How was I supposed to be a good wingwoman if she was nowhere to be found? I glanced at Onorato's hand in mine. He was freaking cold. I mean, I knew that we were in Washington State, but this was ridiculous

Onorato was leading me towards the back of the house and I started to panic again. I was being saved from one bad situation into another bad situation. Just my luck.

There was no one in the back yard and my feeling of panic only increased. There'd be no witnesses. I suddenly missed Jacob more than I realized.

Onorato let go of my hand and walked to the other side of the yard. He was pacing frantically and I only stared at him. "Are you okay?" I asked timidly. He nodded his head. "Thanks for saving my ass back there; literally," I said, hoping he'd calm down. It looked like this guy was on the verge of a panic attack.

"No problem," he said, still pacing. "You want some water?" I asked him, preparing to go back into the house. He shook his head. "I'll be fine," he promised. He started taking deep breaths and then all of a sudden he was relaxed.

"Feeling better?" He nodded his head. "Good." This was the first time that I was actually having a conversation with Onorato. I was one of the few girls in the school that wasn't head over heels in lust with him. I could understand why he got so much attention. He was very attractive.

"Why did you save me?" I asked him randomly. He looked up at me as if he was totally confused with my question. "You were in trouble." He said it as if it were the most obvious answer. "Yeah, but, you didn't have to save me. I mean, I'm no damsel in distress," I told him.

He gave a hard chuckle. "You are a girl and you were in trouble. I thought that was what a damsel in distress was." I rolled my eyes. "I was hardly in real trouble," I argued. "You could've been. He looked like he was capable of it," Onorato said quietly. "Well, thank you anyway. Speaking of trouble, I have to go find my friend."

"Maggie?" he asked. "Yeah! You know her?" I asked. He nodded his head, a small smirk on his face. "She's been stalking me for quite some time." "Sorry about that. She just really likes you." Onorato shrugged. "She's a little young for me." He started laughing. I didn't get the joke. I thought this guy was our age.

"How old are you?" I asked. "A lot older than you are," he stated. I rolled my eyes. What was that supposed to mean? What, was he nineteen?

He was looking up at the sky when he suddenly grabbed his nose. "What's wrong?" he shook his head and started screaming expletives.

I walked over to him. "What's wrong?" I asked again. "Melissa, get the fuck away from him!" Jacob ordered. Oh shit! Jacob was here. Not only that, but this guy just walked from the forest. I was in trouble now. "Is that smell, you?" Onorato asked, his hand still pinching his nose. I looked over to Jacob, my face confused.

"Melissa! Move! Now!" Jacob screamed. I started walking towards him and Onorato's hand shot out to my arm. "You'll hurt her. Calm down," he ordered Jacob. I kept looking back and forth between these guys. What did he mean that Jacob would hurt me? Why did Jacob want me to get away from him so badly?

"The only person that I'm going to hurt is you if you don't let her go!" Jacob's whole body was shaking violently. "Hmm. It seems that my old masters were correct. You really are a shifter. Not as uncontrollable as the children of the moon, but just as violent and quick tempered." What the fuck was going on?

I met Jacob's eyes and for once in a long time, I felt utter fear. The look in his eyes let me know that I was in real danger. He looked scared and pissed and worried and I suddenly regretted coming to this dumb party.

"I mean the girl no harm. Quite the opposite exactly. I will give her to you once you calm down. You look like you're on the verge of changing, or shifting, or whatever it is your kind do," Onorato told him. Jacob's eyes met mine and he started taking deep breaths.

I looked back at Onorato to see that his eyes were no longer purple, but they were red. I felt a scream building up in my throat and I looked back at Jacob. Onorato let me go and I ran to him quickly. His arms enveloped me and I felt at peace. I knew that Jacob was pissed at me, but at least I was with him.

"What do you want and what are you doing here?" I heard Jacob ask Onorato. "I'm here to start fresh. I came into contact with the Cullens in Alaska and they allowed my coven and I to stay in their house. They had spoken of your kind, but I hoped to avoid you. I'm not really a dog person," I heard Onorato reply. I was so confused. This was just too much.

"Why haven't they come into contact with me?" Jacob asked him. "They are deep in Alaska. It's impossible for reception. Emmet and Edward offered to come with us, but I declined the offer. I didn't expect there to be much trouble."

"Bullshit! Your eyes are blood red. You expect me to believe that you're a "vegetarian"?" "I'm new to this whole thing, but I haven't had a drop of human blood since I've decided against it. My coven and I are clean."

"Gather your coven. We'll meet in the clearing behind the Cullen's place. We need to go over a few guidelines and rules. We have to write a completely different treaty," Jacob said, pulling me away. I followed behind him, nearly tripping over my own feet.

"You need to go home right fucking now!" Jacob ordered. I was still in shock. "What just happened?" I asked Jacob. I've never seen him so pissed. He looked like he wanted to kill something. "You need to go home, Melissa!" he repeated. "Tell me what the fuck is going on Jacob!" He growled and went into Dave's house.

A few minutes later, he walked out with a very drunk Maggie in his arms. "You take her home," he said, handing me her car keys. "Are you going to tell me what's going on?" I asked him, ignoring his previous request. "NO."

I snatched the keys out of his hand and stomped over to Maggie's car. Jacob placed Maggie in the passenger's side. "Take her home and then you go home," his voice still shaking with rage. I shook my head. "I'm spending the night over there, tonight," I told him. "Let me rephrase that; Go home tonight."

"No, Jacob! You can't just tell me what to do! You're not the fucking boss of me!" I yelled at him. "Trouble in paradise?" Onorato taunted from my window. Jacob growled at him. "You see? What the fuck is going on?" I asked again.

Onorato looked at Jacob. "You mean, she doesn't know?" Jacob shook his head. "Why haven't you told her?" "It's none of your fucking business, leech!" I looked between the two. "Told me what? What haven't you told me?!" I asked. They completely ignored me.

"Don't you think she deserves to know?" Onorato asked him. "It's none of your business! Stay out of it!" Jacob glared at Onorato and he started shaking violently again.

"Whatever, Jacob. You want to talk to me, you know where to find me." I said, starting the ignition. "At home," Jacob confirmed. I rolled my eyes at him.

I drove Maggie home like I was ORDERED. It was a difficult task. Maggie was dead weight and I was by no means a body builder. I left her on the couch downstairs because there was absolutely no way that I'd be able to haul her up the stairs.

I realized that I had no way to get home and I mentally cursed Jacob. His secrets were getting out of hand. I shrugged it off and went upstairs to get Maggie's covers. I made a pallet on the floor next to Maggie's couch.

The pallet honestly didn't have a purpose. There was no way that I'd be able to get any sleep after what just happened. I was so pissed and confused. How was I supposed to respond to all of this? I had more questions and no answers. Why was Onorato talking about human blood? Who were the children of the moon? Why did Jacob smell bad to Onorato?

I stared up at Maggie's ceiling and let everything put itself together. There was only one conclusion to all of this; Jacob and Onorato were on bath salts.

My phone vibrated in my pocket and I rolled my eyes. There was only one person that it could be. I wasn't going to answer that call. I let it continue to ring until it finally stopped. Jacob was going to be even madder at me, but I didn't care. I was officially mad at him too.

My phone vibrated again and I answered it.

What?!

You're not home.

I had no way to get there!

You could've used Maggie's car.

That's called stealing, Jacob. I'm not a thief.

Jacob started speaking Quileute but I knew that he was cursing.

I'm on my way.

No! Stay away from me Black. I'm not going to have anything to do with you until you kick your habit.

My what?

You heard me! I don't fraternize with addicts.

I hung up the phone and laid back down on Maggie's floor. I looked at her and saw that my argument with Jacob hadn't woken her. I'm sure that there were few things in the world that could wake her.

I continued to stare at Maggie's ceiling. It was the only way that I didn't think about Jacob or Onorato or their drugs.

When I was nearly sleeping, my phone vibrated again. It was a text message from Jacob.

Come outside. I need to talk to you.

I stood up from off of Maggie's floor and tip-toed to the door, hoping not to wake her parents. I opened it to find a shirtless Jacob, a scowl present on his face. He grabbed me by my upper arm and he hauled me to his Rabbit.

"What the hell, Jake? Let me go! I can walk by myself," I yelled. Jacob ignored me. He put me in the passenger's seat and ran to the driver's side. I couldn't help but remember that the last time Jake and I were in his Rabbit, we were happy. Now, we were tense and Jacob was nearly flying towards my house, impatient for me to be out of his presence.

"Are you going to tell me what's going on?" I asked him quietly. He didn't answer. He was giving me the silent treatment. "C'mon Jacob. What? Do you want me to apologize for being a teenager and going to a party? Okay! I'm sorry that I was trying to have a good time!" I fumed. He still didn't respond.

"Fine! You don't want to talk to me? Great! Then I'm not going to talk to you either!" I turned away from him and I suddenly couldn't wait to get home either. Being around Jacob when he was like this was no fun.

When we pulled up to the house, I cursed Jacob to Hades. Amber and Nate were standing outside, arms crossed over their chests, and scowls marring their faces. I could've died. Jacob snitched. I gave him a glare but he didn't even look at me. He kept his eyes forward and his jaw clenched.

I stepped out of his car and slammed the door with all of my might. I stomped towards my house. Yep, I was screwed.

So, needless to say, I was grounded. No phone, no TV, no iPod, and no fun. The only thing that I was allowed to do was go to school and Figure Skating. I had to fight for Figure Skating. Amber still didn't want me to go, but I persuaded her to allow me to.

Also needless to say, I wasn't talking to Jacob. I didn't have my phone to talk to him and he made no way to come over here. Not like I wanted to see him anyway. This was all of his fault. Not to mention that I was more confused than ever.

I went to school on Monday and Tuesday hoping to see Onorato, but he was nowhere to be found. I figured that if Jacob wasn't going to tell me what was going on, then Onorato would. However, I guess everyone was avoiding me.

However, everything took a turn for the better on Wednesday. Onorato decided to show his face.

I was sitting with Maggie at lunch when she spotted him. "Uh, I'm so a dumbass! I got so wasted that he probably thinks I'm a weirdo," she complained. I looked up to see that he was looking back at me. He gave me a small smirk and started walking over to our table.

"Oh shit! Oh shit! Oh shit! How do I look? Do I smell okay? Do you think that he's into me?" I ignored Maggie's questions and kept my gaze on Onorato's approaching form. He walked like a lion stalking its prey. He was on a mission.

"Hello, Maggie!" he purred. Maggie could've died at that moment and vowed that she had fulfilling life. I laughed and handed Maggie a napkin. "Get the drool off of your chin, honey." She slapped my hand away and I only laughed harder.

"Do you mind if I steal Melissa for a few moments? I promise to bring her back in perfect condition," his accent sounding thicker than it usually did. Maggie nodded her head slowly, still smiling at Onorato like an idiot.

I followed Onorato out of the cafeteria and into the courtyard. "Where are we going?" I asked him. "Somewhere more private," he told me, not even giving me a backwards glance.

"Every time I go somewhere private with you, something bad happens," I told him, still following behind him. He laughed. "Do you want to know what's going on or not?" I nodded my head quickly and continued following him.

"Well, then keep up and come on." He was leading me to the forest behind Forks High. I hope he wasn't lying to Maggie about me being returned to her in perfect condition.

We stopped walking and Onorato turned around to face me. "What's going on?" I asked him. He didn't answer. He looked behind me and I followed his gaze. Behind me stood a horse-sized russet wolf. It was the wolf in my dreams.

"Holy Mackerel!" Onorato raised an eyebrow at me. "Mackerel? No, it's a wolf!" I chose to ignore his obvious ignorance of the term and continued to stare at my dream wolf.

I wasn't afraid. I should've been afraid but I wasn't. I took a step towards the wolf and Onorato snatched me back. "Be careful," he warned. The wolf growled at him and Onorato laughed. "Just show her your true form already."

I can't even describe it. It was like, one second he was a wolf, and the next, he wasn't. He was a human. Not just any human. He was Jacob Black.

"What the fuck?!" I backed up towards Onorato. "How did you-?" Jacob took a deep breath. "It's obvious that I have a lot of explaining to do," he said, running a hand through his hair. I looked down and saw that Jacob was completely nude. I turned around quickly and looked up at the sky. "Oh shit!" he cursed.

Onorato laughed and I kept my gaze on the sky. I'd never seen Jacob naked before. I couldn't complain though. The guy was a freaking Adonis.

Jacob just morphed from a wolf to a human. What was I supposed to do? What was I supposed to think? My best friend was a monster.

The conversation about the werewolves started playing in my mind. "You're a fucking werewolf?" I screamed, turning back around to face him. He was pulling his pants up and was giving me a sympathetic look. "Melissa, listen, i-,"

I turned around to face Onorato. "How the hell did you know about this? What the fuck are you?" Onorato put a hand to his chest. "I'm a vampire," he stated. I felt my face paling. I backed away from him and ran into Jacob's chest.

"Melissa, you've got to relax," Jacob told me, grabbing my shoulders. "How long has this been going on?" I asked him. "For a while. Maybe four years. Around that long."

Jacob was a werewolf when I first met him and this was the first time that I was hearing about this.

"Explain yourself."

Woah! A lot happened in that chapter didn't it? So, finally Jacob tells her. Well, Onorato and Jacob tell her. I have no idea where I'm going with this. I'm just sort of writing this as I go along. It makes it more fun that way.
