I arrived in LaPush in time to see Billy wheeling inside. He looked warn down, but greeted me as politely as usual. It had to be hard on him having Jacob going through so much right now.
Jacob came running out the door as my engine turned off with a load roar. He almost broke my door off helping me out of the car and wrapped me in a tight embrace.
"JACOB! Could you loosen your grip a bit? I'm only human."
He laughed and let go of me. "I'm so glad that blood… I mean… Edward let you come down here for the day!"
"Me too Jacob." I smiled and a small figure appeared at the door. She was about my height with long brown hair. There was something about her that made me curious. I felt like I had seen her before. She waved and descended down the steps. Before she reached the last one, she tripped. Jacob was there in a heartbeat to catch her before she hurt herself. That's when I realized that Lindsey was exactly like me. She looked familiar because she looked like the image I had seen in the mirror 20 minutes ago. Jacob had imprinted on a girl just like me. A shiver went down my spine at the thought. I snapped out of my trance in tome to introduce myself without seeming rude. She seemed nice enough, although I was baffled by Jacob's soul mate.
As 2 drew nearer, Jacob and Lindsey had begun forgetting I was there. Jacob just looked at her with adoring eyes, the way Edward looked at me. I could tell she really loved him by the way she looked back. I was glad he had found someone who could love him totally and completely without any other competition. I had been worried about Jake since he found out about the engagement, but now I could tell I had nothing to worry about. At 5 'til, I finally stood up and walked towards the door. Jacob's head shot up almost immediately.
"Wow, I lost track of time. Lindsey, I'm gonna take Bella to the boundary line. I'll be back in a few minutes." Jacob and I walked outside and he began apologizing.
"I feel like such a jerk. You never get to come down here and I just spent that whole time looking at and talking to Lindsey. You're probably never going to want to come back.
"It's ok Jacob. I had fun meeting her. She seems like she's good for you."
I bit my lip, debating on whether or not I should have told him what I had noticed. I decided against it.
"Bella let me make it up to you. We can hang out again one day."
"I'm not sure when I'll make it back down Jacob. We've been really busy lately. I'll try though." I gave him a weak smile and then turned away. I didn't want him to see all the pain that saying good-bye was causing me.
"I'll see you soon Bella. I promise."
"I hope so Jacob."
Edward was at the boundary line pacing. Jacob got out of my car and I drove over to Edward. I waved good-bye as we drove off. As sad as I was about saying bye to my friend, I was very curious about what my angel was planning for me that required him to send me away for the morning. I had a feeling I was about to find out.
