JACOBS POV
I waited while she ate her breakfast. As a werewolf I do a lot of things faster then before like eat. After she was done with her food we walked outside. She only tripped on the first step because I carried her down the rest before she caught her breath from the fall. I asked for the keys when we were at her truck. I wanted to run there but she wanted to bring her truck just in case Charlie came home early, which lately he has been, then he will know she's out and not worry as much. She was always the thinker between us. This made me love her even more. "Can I please drive?" she asked as she got out her keys.
"Why I'm a much faster driver and I wanted to run." I tried to sound hurt.
"Exactly it was my idea to drive so I should drive." She turned around after kissing me on the cheek and went over to the driver's side leaving me speechless. Once we got on the road it was about 30 minutes to my house and with Bella driving it was about 45. I watched her the whole time. She glanced my way a couple of times, which made the truck swerve a little, which made me laugh a lot.
When we finally got to my house my dad was there and waiting for us on the porch which was never a good sign. I looked at Bella and the look on her face told me that she didn't think it was a good sign either. I took her face in my hands so she was looking at me and gave her a kiss to tell her everything was ok.
BELLAS POV
When we got to Jakes house, after what felt like forever of driving, Jakes father was sitting on the porch in his wheelchair. I looked at Jake and knew that we were thinking the same thing. He took my face in his hands and kissed me. I was busy trying to remember to breathe when all too soon the kiss was over and Jake was out of the door and holding open mine before I could gather my thoughts again. "For someone who has never kissed anyone before me you sure know what you're doing." I smiled up at him. He just laughed and helped me out of the truck.
We walked up to the house waiting to hear what Billy had to say. "Hey Billy, how are you today?" I tried to not sound so worried, and I think he bought it. But I knew Jake could see right though it.
JACOBS POV
"Hey Billy, how are you today?" Bella said trying to act casual but I could see right through it. Looking at my father I could see he bought it, or acted like he did. He smiled and I knew he was acting. "Just fine, and yourself?" why was he being so formal? It was not like him. I wonder if this was werewolf business or was this something new. "Umm, Jake can I talk to you for a minute alone.
BILLYS POV
"Just fine and yourself?" I asked trying to match her casual tone not sure if she was putting on an act or not. I looked at Jake and saw that he wondered why I was waiting for them. I had to talk to my boy alone so I wouldn't scare Bella. "Umm Jake can I talk to you for a minute alone?" I could tell that Bella wanted to know what I needed to tell Jake but she couldn't know until I talked to Jake and he talked to Sam to see it is ok. I didn't want to worry her but as I looked back at her I could tell that it was too late. Jake kissed her and walked in the house pushing me.
BELLAS POV
I wanted to go in with them I didn't like not being a part of something that I know involves me. I knew it was something to do with either the vamps I know or the werewolves I know. I can't just sit here and let them leave me. Before I could say anything Jake kissed me and before I knew it yet again he was gone and leaving me to have my doubts about what was going on, because I knew something was going on.
JACOBS POV
I knew that Bella was not going to like that my dad was going to talk to me alone because if I knew Bella and I did I knew she was going to think is was about her and that we meaning the werewolf pack were going to put themselves in danger to protect her. If she only knew how fun it was to track down bloodsuckers and kill them, but no matter how many times or how many different ways tell I her she will always think we are in danger. I sighed and bent down to kiss her and then quickly went into the house with my dad so I could clear my head. Her kisses always left me dazed. Even if I kiss her first, once she gets over the shock of my kiss she kisses back and I can taste the love in her kisses. "What's going on?" I asked trying to clear my head once again. My dad turned around to face me and sighed. That was the clue I knew this was another werewolf case.
BILLYS POV
By the way Jake looked at me after I sighed I knew I gave it away. I didn't want to make a big deal out of it but it was too important to let it sound like no big deal. "Jake I want you to promise me something can you do that with out question?" I asked knowing that he would not question me, his father, because he knew I had a plan and that he was going to go talk to Sam so he just nodded his agreement waiting for me to continue. "I went to go visit the Clearwater 's this morning to see how they were doing with two werewolves in the house, I know what its like to have just one so I can imagine two." I said with a laugh and my son just looked at me wondering were this was going. He had his head cocked to the side a trait he picked up after becoming a werewolf. My face got serious and I started again. "When I got there Sam was there with Paul and Quil waiting for me to get there so they can tell me to tell you that there are new vampires coming." I looked up at him and he still had his head cocked.
JACOBS POV
My dad was not making any sense. Why was he telling me about his trip to the Clearwater 's house? I didn't say anything the second time he looked up at me he was reading the expressions on my face not waiting for me to answer so I just stood in the middle of our kitchen and waited for him to get to his point. He took a deep breath yet again and started, his voice was in a whisper only could hear. "Sam said that five of them are coming." Once I heard five my mouth dropped. There has never been that many vampires come to 'visit' our parts. In fact I have never heard of any thing bigger then three except the Cullen's family. I looked down at my dad and saw why he wanted to tell me alone my hands were clinched to the ends of the table and the wood crumpled to the floor in dust. I vaguely heard my dad's voice, "Calm down son. You're howling like an idiot." I heard him roll of to me, I always loved how he accepted who I was and was not afraid. I took a deep breath and calmed my shacking down. I went to the refrigerator and bent down beside it to get the broom and dust pan. I was getting use to sweeping up after my little out bursts which was not a good sign. I had to learn how to handle things better than a little puppy for everyone's sake.
BELLAS POV
I head Jakes howling about five minutes after they went inside to talk. I jumped up off the step I was sitting on and almost fell when someone caught me. For a minute I thought it was Jake because it was so warm but then I smelled him and it smelled all wrong to be Jake. I looked up to see who my rescuer was and found my face right up against Sam. I tried to get to my feet and with the help of Sam I managed to do it without falling again. When I was standing I saw that Sam was not alone. The whole pack was with her including the only girl werewolf, which no one really liked except Sam. I smiled up at them.
SAMS POV
I can see why Jake is so worried about Bella's safety, she is an accident waiting to happen. I smiled at her faint blush. I heard Jake howling from a mile away so I wasn't surprised to see worry in her eyes as she turned to try to go inside. Before she could get to the door Jake was in the doorway.
BELLAS POV
Wow he looked mad and worried at the same time. A new look for him and I didn't like it. I tried to swallow it came to a surprise that I had trouble breathing. I looked behind me and then at Jake again and the next think I knew I was waking but to the sound of voices. "She always over reacts to this kind of thing." It sounded like Jared. "I know but she only acts like this because she cares about not only Jake but all of us." This new voice sounded like Sam. "She has become all of our friends and we have to make her see that we are fine with fighting vampires." This voice was too angry to be anyone else's but Paul's. I took in a deep breath of air and tried to open my eyes. To my relief they opened without any fuss. Once my eyes were focused I saw all eight of the wolves and Jakes dad. They all managed to fit in the living area and kitchen. I looked around the room looking from face to face. I could see they were all worried about me. They were worried about a mere human girl and not themselves. Why aren't they worried about how they are going to survive another vampire attack because of me? The way they looked and guarded me told me it was yet again about me. Why was I always putting the ones I love in danger so much? I sighed and everyone looked from each other to me again knowing that I was worrying.
JACOBS POV
I hated to see her worry so much. It wasn't good for her. I didn't know how to tell her any other way. I have told her so many times that we were not in any danger hunting vampires. I have told her that this is what we are made for. But sweet Bella has always been the one who puts others before her safety. I looked at her and took a deep breath knowing this was a battle I most likely won't win. "Look Bells we have to skip the bikes today." Sam has informed my father that a new group of vampires have been since around our land.
BELLAS POV
Why did he sound so casual in the beginning and end so formal? Something wasn't right. I knew Jake to well he was hiding something. What was it that he was hiding? I knew that he was going to try to get me to not worry about him or the others but he never tried to sound so business like. I looked up at him and saw in his eyes that this was not my Jake this was the werewolf Jake and that this was only business and I was not to get in the way. I sighed and started to sit up. At least I could hear what he had to say before I worried out loud. "What is it about these vampires that have you so serious?" I asked as I took Jakes hand to pull him to sit next to me. Then he started looking at the floor. "This new group has five very old vampires. They might not be as strong as the new ones but they are so much wiser and wise over powers strong any day." He looked up at me to see my reaction so I tried to look like this didn't phase me but inside I was crying out to him to not go and just stay here with me were its save and never leave.
JACOBS POV
I knew what she was thinking. She had a brave face on but I could see in her eyes that she didn't want me to go. I just smiled at her knowing that she was thinking that we could just stay here in this safe house and stay together forever. I sighed and said, "You know we can't just stay here. We have to go take these new bloodsuckers out".
BELLAS POV
Now this was the wolf I knew. He sounded like it was a game again. I was worried that they were in more danger knowing that these new vampires are old and wise. Most of the werewolves in this room are new and does not have that much experience. But they had enough fighting under their belts by protecting me for the past two years. I don't think they will listen to me so I just sat there silently worrying about the man I love risking his life yet again to save me. I was thinking of what Jake said about there being five. There was only one group I knew that consist of five vampires.
The Volturi was in Forks!
