"Wake up!"

Thump.

A book was thrown at my head, but completely missed, hitting the wall instead.

"Daaad." I moaned, my face in my pillow, "Your aim sucks." I heard him chuckle and walk away. "You suck too." I grumbled.

"Heard that." He called down the hallway. I groaned loudly and rolled onto my back. After laying there for a minute, I shoved myself off the bed, and slowly made my way down into the kitchen. Daniel had set a bowl of lucky charms and orange juice on the table for me. I'd thank him if I wasn't worried about today. I didn't know what Jacob Black was going to do. Because Jacob Black was the definition of unexpected.

But when I got to school he did what I asked. He didn't talk to me, follow me, write notes, life was becoming surprisingly easy without his little outbursts. Which I was learning happened a lot. Apparently he's known for an extremely bad temper. This became evident after the last bell rang and I was walking down the halls. The usual loud excited chatter of newly let out students was absent. In place of it was the outraged voice of Jacob.

I admit, I was extremely curious. So I pressed my way through the throng of students, standing on my tip toes.

"WHAT DID YOU SAY?!" Jacob roared, his face terrifying. My heart pounded dangerously loud, I had never seen Jacob like that.

Embry didn't seem the least bit worried, "All I'm saying is that since Tess is back, we should make sure she feels fully "welcome"." He snickered. My heart dropped. I knew he wasn't thinking of the welcome I was.

Jacob bared his teeth, his hands balling into fists, his soft voice didn't make his threat less terrifying, "If you touch one hair on her body, I will thoroughly break every limb in your body. Slowly. I will not feel one bit of remorse you sad excuse of a human being."

I quietly stepped back, trying to fight back tears. This was so stupid of me to think that things would be different. Being skinny didn't change anything.

"Tess?!" I heard Jacob's alarmed voice and I broke into a run. Quickly turning a corner and pressing myself against the lockers. People actually don't think this works. But the person chasing you is so preoccupied with not losing you, they only see what's in front of them. So Jacob kept running, his face stricken with panic. I slumped on the ground covering my face with my hands. My breaths came is short uneven gulps of air as I tried to hold my tears back that so threatened to crash onto the scuffed floors. I felt hands pull me up and I stared tearfully at Jason's concerned face.

"Don't." I choked, gasping for breath. He stared at me for a while, and then led me over to the stairway.

"Let's get you home."

The next morning was worse then yesterday's. I dreaded going to school. Would Embry listen to Jacob and leave me alone? He didn't seem too scared by Jacob's threat. Once again, I was scared of the unexpected. But Daniel, as oblivious as ever, set out my usual breakfast of orange juice and lucky charms, and shooed me off to school. Jacob once again walked on the opposite side of the street, but his long strides eventually pulled him far ahead of me. I was alone to go delirious with fear and over exaggerate any off hand comment towards me. Throughout the day I watched everybody's expressions carefully, but nothing seemed out of order. The day passed by without any problems. In art, Jason didn't even bring up yesterday's events. Jacob didn't talk to me, although his eyes kept flickering around the room, as he drummed the table with his fingers. I felt it was best not to point out how annoying that was. By the end of the day, I was completely relaxed. Embry must have backed off, and I had to grudgingly admit I was thankful to Jacob for that.

But I obviously have too much faith in the human race, because walking back to my locker, I knew Embry hadn't backed off. The pitiful looks of students, the gleeful snickers of girls, and the all too proud papa, Embry, smirking as I passed him, well, let's just say it was too many coincidences.

My eyes darted warily as I flicked the lock on my locker left and right. I pulled up the handle and opened it.

Hundreds of white sheets pooled out of my locker, completely covering my feet. I admit, a smart thing would do is to walk away. But who ever does that? So I bent down, my fingers trembling, and picked up a piece of paper.

I stared at it for a moment and then let it fall from my fingers, my face completely blank. I abruptly turned around, running straight into Jacob's chest. He immedietly wrapped his arms around me, and then let them drop, bending down to pick up the paper dropped. His eyes narrowed as he scanned the page. It was a photo shopped picture of an morbidly obese person, with my face pasted on top. On the top it read: Voted Most Needs to go on a Diet.

"Stay." He ordered, his voice shaking. He turned around slowly, walking up to the snicker Embry, and the slightly nervous Quill.

"Look man." Embry grinned, "Just having a little fun. She needs to learn how to take a joke that's all."

I grimaced. I hated when people were obviously being jerks and then tried to make you look stupid and insecure that it hurt your feelings.

"You thought that was funny?" Jacob's voice was dangerously low, but I was still scared. I probably could've peed my pants. Good thing I'm potty trained.

Embry chuckled, "You have to admit it dude, it is fun-" Embry never got to finish his sentence Jacob pulled back his fist and let it fly, slamming into Embry's jaw. Embry flew into the lockers, leaving a serious dent in it. Jacob stalked back to me, grabbing my wrist and mumbling something I couldn't fully understand. I stumbled after him, as he half dragged me to his car, throwing open the door and pretty much tossing me into the passenger seat.

I sat in his seat staring blankly ahead as he drove, fury driving him to go far beyond the speed limit. He took deep breaths every so often with this intense look of concentration. Like he was trying so hard to do something. Or…not do something. After ten minutes I realized we weren't heading to our street, "Where are we going?" I yawned, bringing my knees to my chest. He finally turned to look at me, his eyes black with pure hatred.

"I need to talk to Sam."

I was too tired to question who Sam was, so when he, slammed the car door shut, and stormed up to a house, I simply rummaged around his car, found an extremely large hoodie, and put it on. Now nice and toasty, I curled up in a ball and laid on the seats. It was quiet for a while, and every so often I could hear Jacob and Sam arguing, but by then I was gone. So I was disoriented when Jacob was pulling into his driveway. When I groggily opened my eyes, Jacob was smiling at me. I peered at him suspiciously and tried to sit up, but he quickly picked me up as if I was a baby, and carried me up to his house.

I yawned, "I'm not a baby. I learned how to walk when I was 2." He smiled and I tiredly rubbed at my eyes. Almost effortless, he opened up the screen door and brought me into the living room. Carefully, he sat down on the couch and tucked me under his chin.

"I gotta go…go…" for some reason I was finding it extremely difficult to talk, "Hoooome." I mumbled. He ignored me, flipping on the TV. When I tried to disentangle my self, he gripped me tighter, "You're so difficult." I muttered into his chest. I heard, as well as felt his laugh, and I sighed. I obviously wasn't getting anywhere, and it was so, warm. So I rested my head on his muscular arms, and yawned once more before closing my eyes.

"You're so cute when you yawn." I lightly batted his face with my hand.

"Shuttup you."
