So this is chapter four. Thanks to all that have read review and favored/followed this. All mistakes are my own.
DISCLAMER:
I do not own any of the characters from Maximum Ride or Twilight. I am simply browning them.
For those of you that don't know riding a bike is like flying. You get that same free feeling. It's truly amazing. I got so caught up in the feeling that I almost didn't hear Jacob start to yell at me to turn right. After that I started to pay more attention to what he was say. After ½ hour of him giving me directions I pulled up to a beach. I park my bike and turn off the engine and let him get off and then follow him. I pocket the key and look around and see…. Nothing just beach sand and the ocean.
"Ummmm question. Where are we?" I asked.
"La Push." Jacob answered.
'Is that supposed to mean something to me?" Turning around I see him smiling at me.
"La Push beach. It's part of the reservation."
"Ok then. Got another question for you."
"Ok shot."
"Why?"
"Why?"
"Yes. Why?"
'Why what?"
"Why are we on the Reservation? Aren't you suppose to show me around town?"
"Yes, but we both know that you don't really care. The only things that you need to know is where the school, the store, and the Rez. And I can show you the other two on the way back. Besides this gives Derek and my Dad time to hang out." He cold over his shoulder as he was walking down some stairs to the beach.
"That's some smart thinking. But why do you think that that's all I'll need to know?" I followed him down the steps and on to the beach. There was no one around for miles. It reminded me of the beach that I toke the Flock to, when we learned that Angle could talk to fish and breathe under water. God that seems like a life time ago.
"ax. Max! Are you ok?" Jacob said looking a little worried.
"Yeah. I'm fine." I said shacking my head to clear it of memories.
"Are you sure? You just kind of spaced out." He didn't look to be buying it.
"Yes. Know, what where you saying?" I changed to subject as quickly as possible.
"Will you don't seem like the kind of girl who likes to go shopping, ever, and you're not much of a people person. So that gets read of most thing in this town. The only other thing is the Diner, but I think that's where Derek is going to take you for dinner."
"Oh really now? And how do you figure that?" I asked eyeing him as we walked on the water line.
"Will Max, have you looked in the mirror? Your pants have seen more than their fair share of wear and tear. AS for you being a people person you completely ignored Dad and me till we started to talk to you and then it was like pulling teeth till we started to talk about the bike." He's more observant then I thought.
"Wow. And these just happen to be my favorite pair of Jeans." We had been walking for a good ½ hour by know. It was nice to just walk and not have to worry about things. "So what school do you go to? Forks High?"
"No, I go on the Raz. Sorry but you're stuck with the rest of the Pale Face's."
"Oh jay. This is going to be fun. Not only am I being forced to go to school, but I get to go all by myself and not know a single person that I can put up with. Kill my now and save as all a lot of pain and suffering." At that Jacob started to laugh at me. "It's not funny!" I yell at him. "The last time that I went to a high School the fucking HeadHunter tried to kill me. Literally!" I say think about the school Anne had sent us to. Where most of the teachers and the Headmaster had worked for Itex.
"HeadHunter?" He asked when he stopped laughed.
"It's what we called the Headmaster of the school. He was after my family for every little thing that went wrong. 'Cause it couldn't be anyone else's fault. Granted it usually was one of our faults but still." That just made him laugh all the mare. "The first time we were called in, two of my brothers Zephyr and Jeff put stink bombs underneath the toilet lids in the main boy's bathroom." By now I'm smiling and laughing. "His face was bright red. And his stupid British accent. Of course they did it, but I wasn't going to tell him that so I said that our parents where missioners and we did not lie. God he hated use, He called us in for everything." By the time that I finished my story I have tears in my eyes. I wipe them away before he can see, and laugh with him.
"Wow. Are they your only siblings? Are they coming here two?" He asks, with a smile on his face.
"Did your dad tell you anything about me?" I ask with a quit voice.
"Nothing really. Just that you were moving here to get away from staff. Why?" He asks hesitantly.
"I was the oldest of six." I answer him.
"Was?"
"Was." I say looking at the ground. "I had three brothers: Nick and Jeff were 17, Zephyr was 11. And two little sisters: Krystal was 14 and Ariel was 10. I basically raised the younger ones, Nick and Jeff help when they could. Jeff and Zephyr were the pranksters and pyros. They could always make light of a bad situation. Unless you know that Jeff was blind you couldn't till, he never missed a hi-five. Zephyr was my little trooper. He would always trying to be one of the big kids. Nick was my right hand man. He was the strong and silent type. In all the years that I know him he ever said more than a few words at a time, and if he did you know that it was serious. Krystal was a motor moth. With her it was the Krystal channel, all Krystal all the time. She was a good kid, but could have turned Mother Teresa in to an axe murder. And Ariel was my little Angle, my baby. I raised her. We found her when she was one. She was so small. Her and Zephyr, we later found out where the only ones of use that where blood." By know I had tears rolling down my checks. And had stopped walking.
"Max I'm so sorry." He says quietly. To me like he doesn't know what to say, but then what do you say?
I wipe the tears way, and look at my watch. "Come on we should had back. We've been gone for two hours Derek's going to think that I killed you." I say heading back to the bike. The walk is silent both of us lost in thought. On the ride back Jacob shows me where the school and the store are. When we get back the house I go straight up stares to what is apertly my room if I go by the box's that says 'Max's room'. And shot the door.
Down stars I hear, Bill Jacob and Derek talking. "You asked about her past didn't you?" Asks Derek.
"I didn't know. I swore. I'm so sorry." Says Jacob.
"It's not your fault. We should have told you not to." Derek sighs.
"Come on Jack. Let's had home and let them stale in." Says Billy. I hear them walking out the door. Jacob still apologizing.
