I did change my OC's name. It was Jaye, but I was rereading my first chapter and I didn't like how close it was to Jake. I didn't want to mistake the names while typing so I changed it to Kylie. I'm sorry I haven't been posting much for any of my stories. They are not dead and I have some ideas for them. My bipolar has me in a slump where I just want to lay in bed and sleep. I always feel tired. I haven't been doing much most days. - BlackBird
"Kylie, do you want to come with me to La Push?" Bella asks, interrupting me drawing at the kitchen table. I'm drawing the scenery outside the kitchen window. Snow covering Charlie's cruiser.
"Why are you going? I thought Edward didn't like you heading to the Rez." Bella sighs exasperated.
"Emily invited us. Do you want to come with or not?" I haven't been to the Rez since Jake had his little freak out. It'd be nice to go again.
I close my sketch book and grab my coat before following Bella out the door. She starts the truck before scrapping the snow off the windows. Don't know why she even bothered to start the car first. She still doesn't have heat in it.
The drive is quiet. Neither of us seem to be in the mood to talk. It's kind of a good thing. I'm tired of hearing her talk about Edward. When she gets started she doesn't stop. I don't really care that Edward has 'gorgeous golden eyes' or a 'soothing deep voice'. Nope, don't really care at all.
"I don't know who will all be at the house. Emily didn't really say. I think Jake will be there." Bella speaks as we enter La Push. Not like Jake wants anything to do with me.
"The Hell?" There's something in the tree line. It looked big and dark reddish brown.
"What?" It looks like a big wolf. I just barely see it. It disappears as fast as I saw it.
"Nothing. I thought I saw a big wolf running in the woods. Must be seeing things." Bella doesn't respond. She gets an expression on her face. She's hiding something. She sucks at lying and hiding things. Always has. Even with little things like eating the last cookie. She couldn't talk her way out of anything if she had to lie.
We arrive at Sam and Emily's house. They both are amazing people for letting all those boys come and go as they please. Growing up my best friend's house was like that. Her mother allowed both her children's friends to come and go. She's an amazing person.
The front door opens and Jacob greets us just like last time. He says hello to Bella and leads her into the noisy house just like last time. I practically don't exist. It hurts a little. We grew up together and spent more time than he ever did with Bella.
"Kylie, how are you?" Emily greats me with a caring smile.
"I'm okay. What about you?"
"I'm doing great. Why don't you come to the kitchen with me? The boys are watching football or something." I nod. I never cared to much for sports. The kitchen smells wonderful. It's like this woman is always cooking something. She does have a full house to take care of.
The whole evening Jake ignored me. Whenever he looked at me he would glare. What I ever did to him, I'll probably never know. Bella tried to cheer me up on the drive home. She said Jake was going through some stuff. He doesn't have to take it out on me though.
Today I have the house to myself. Bella is back at school and Charlie is at work. The house feels quiet without them.
"That's it, I'm taking a walk." The snow had melted a bit. It would melt more if we actually got some sun. With my coat on, I start walking towards La Push. I don't know if I'll actually make it there or if I'll turn around. It's only about a 15-minute drive so walking isn't that hard. It's still morning so most of the guys are busy with their lives.
I'm sure Emily is home. Maybe she could use some company. I could help her cook.
"What the?" I stop as a loud rustle to my left grabs my attention. The road is deserted. Shaking my head, I continue walking. I'm just outside the reservation.
"Someone there?" I ask the dark woods after hearing more noise. Maybe someone from the rez is in the woods.
Something flashes past me. I whip around but nothing. A hand shoves me making me land a bit in the tree line. I look around but don't see anyone. I try to get up but I get kicked in the lower ribs. The pain is immense. Looking behind me, I see a man with short blond hair with very bright red eyes. I've never seen the man before but his smile scares me.
"Who are you?" I try to stand again. This time he in front of me in a blink of an eye. I'm slammed into a try and he holds me there. He moves my hair and takes a big inhale near my throat.
"You're that Swan girl's cousin aren't you?" What the hell? Who is this guy.
With another blink he's gone. I take a few steps. I need to get back to the road. If someone sees me they might help me. I don't get far before I'm practically flying backwards. The blond man is hunched over me with a hand on my throat. His hand is colder than the snow. Jerking my head to the side, he leans down towards my throat.
I hear a growl from the man. He turns towards our right before looking back at me.
"My dinner will have to wait." He gets off of me and starts toward the general direction of Forks. I hear a loud rustle before this large black wolf runs past me with a smaller light grey one following.
"Kylie?" I jump at voice behind me. "Sorry, you need to come with me. We're going to Sam's." Jared explains. How the hell is that boy wearing just shorts in this weather.
I give him a shaky nod as I glance behind us. He leads us back to the road and towards Sam's house. What was that man? He surely wasn't human. He wouldn't have been able to toss me around like a rag doll. What about the wolves? They shouldn't be able to get that big, even in the wild. Why was Jared in the woods practically naked? What is going on?
"Kylie." Emily embraces me as we enter the front door. She ushers me to the living room. "Sam will be home soon. I'm sure you have questions." I just nod. This is one hell of a day.
