I only own Lily, Nicki, and Ariel. X_X
"Spit it out Jake." I said impatiently. Jake and I were sitting on the beach. He had been preparing to tell me everything for the last 20 minutes now. The sky was getting darker, threatening rain.
"Alright. Those stories Sam use to tell us to scare us as kids...Those are all true" Jake said with a straight face.
"...?" Oh. The whole Quileutene tribe were supposedly descendants of wolves. They were werewolves or something. They're one enemy were the cold ones; vampires. I never believed in them but now...It did make since. All of them were perfectly beautiful with there pale faces and topaz eyes. Under those eyes were dark shadows like they never sleep. Their skin was like ice. They sometimes talked differently. Their names are like what grandparents had. No one talks to them. The instant appeal I had to them. Why Jacob didn't want me near them. It made since with him and the La Push guys too. Warm skin. Growth spirit. Appetite. Temper. Secretive. I understood completely now. So why wasn't I scared...?
"Oh...Um, okay." I said slowly. I felt stupid that I didn't figure it out quicker on my own.
"What! That's it! They kill!"
"As much as that bothers me, we do the same thing."
"No we don't. It's different." he argued with me. I bet stubbornness is a werewolf quality.
"You're can just snap their necks and the animals wont feel a thing. When humans kills animals they suffer."
"You are amazing!" He tossed his arms in the air.
I smirked. "I know but lets not get off topic. Besides mortal enemies is there another reason why you don't like them?" Jacob had always had a crush on me. He was seriously angry when I first started dating Nicki. He was so jealous he had stopped talking to me.
"That's reason enough. Stay away from them." he said angrily.
"I don't think I can do that. I like them."
He grunted. "You mean you like Emmett."
"They're cool."
"Cool! You just met them..." I cut him off.
"Yeah and so far they have done nothing to piss me off, unlike you, you stupid wolf." I hissed as I walked away. He sighed but didn't bother stopping me.
XxX
On some level, I knew I was still dreaming. It didn't stop the fear.
We were in the woods somewhere. It was dark and slowly getting was angry at me for picking a vampire over him. He couldn't control himself. He leaped at me and exploded into a very large, very scary, russet colored wolf. Emmett knocked him down in mid air. He clawed at Jacob. Jacob pushed him off and ran away with his tail tucked between his legs. Emmett slowly turned to me. I couldn't help but to gasp. His eyes were red not was slowly walking to me.
"I'm sorry." he said in a strained voice. "I'm hungry" He growled.
I turned on my heel and ran the fastest I ever had. The trees were moving closer together scraping me. I could smell the blood. Emmett caught me and pushed me to the stared down at me. "So sorry." Then he attacked.
My eyes shot open as I gasped for air. I was so terrified. My whole body was shaking. "BEEP! BEEP!"
"AGH!" I screamed sharply. My voice cracked so it wasn't so loud. I slammed my hand on my alarm clock silencing it's shrill screech. I got off my bed slowly and went to my underwear drawer. I picked out a black matching set as I still shook. I ran to the bathroom where I stripped quickly. I got in the hot water and tried to calm myself.
I never thought I'd ever fear Jake. I mean really he was always so fun and sweet. He never gave me a reason to. He was my best friend. I would not start freaking out around him. Nothing had changed because he was a werewolf. Nothing.
Emmett on the other hand was a different story. He didn't seem to want to hurt me. I didn't actually know him though. He and his family seemed cool but I only met him yesterday. No there were no buts. I wouldn't just blow him off over some stupid nightmare. At the moment I had no reason to fear them...Besides the obvious anyway.
After the necessary cleaning I got out, dressed, and started on my hair. Once it was dry I put it in a high ponytail with my long bangs falling in my face. I touched my nails up with my favorite 2 nail polishes; red and black. I must have spilled it because there were small red drops on the counter. Oh well. I started putting on black eyeliner. When I finished I noticed more red right where my hand was. I turned my palms over and gasped. While I was asleep my nails dug into my palms, pretty deep. I found two big band aids from the cabinet and slapped them on. It was too noticeable. Damn my nightmares.
Once I was in my bedroom I ran straight to my closet. I pulled on black fingerless gloves. They hid the band aids and were awesome. I pulled on a red tank that said EVIL and had a skull underneath, a plaid skirt, and my knee high converse. I grabbed my key and headed to the kitchen. I scarfed down the breakfast Ariel left for me then hurried of to school.
I dropped my keys when I shut my car door. Before I could grab them a white blur swiped them up. I looked up to see Emmett leaning against my truck. My heartbeat quickened. "H-Hi Emmett." I stammered. I was trying not to be scared but it was so hard. He hung his head and looked at me through his eyelashes.
"The dog told you?" he asked quietly. I nodded. "And you're scared." I shook my head. I couldn't find my voice. "Tell that to your heart. I can hear it pounding." He gave me a sad smile. "It's okay. I guess I'd be afraid of me too."
"No it's...It's not like that. Jake freaked me out when he told me. It gave me nightmares." I bit my lip.
"Well I like that you're dreaming about me but I wish you were enjoying it." He smiled. I could tell it was forced.
I sighed. "I'm just freaked me out."
"You wanna tell me about it?" The bell rang. We needed to get to class. "Later" I promised. I held out my hand. He dropped my keys then put his finger on my palm. "What happened?" I put my hand down quickly.
"We're going to be late." I didn't want him to think I was crazy. I wasn't that destructive when I slept...Anymore. I used to when I was younger.
Emmett sighed and placed a hand on the small of my back. People stared as he walked me to class. That self conscience feeling came back. I crossed my arms over my torso. When we stopped by my classroom he stood in front of me. "It really bothers you doesn't it?" I pulled my eyes to his. He was staring at me caringly. I dropped my eyes to the floor and shrugged. "I have no clue what you're talking about." I lied.
Emmett's icy hand lifted my chin so I was looking at him. I started biting my lip. "Why don't you like anyone to look at you?" I shrugged. He sighed. "I'm going to be late. I will see you later beautiful." My face heated up. He smiled and kissed my hand.
"Wow Bella." Mike said as I entered the room. "You got really close to that Emmett guy." He seemed jealous. He was gay. Well bi; I saw him flirting with Angela Weber before.
"Yeah, so what?" I asked aggravated. He was staring really hard at my body. I suddenly wished I wasn't in this tight top or this short skirt. I probably looked repulsing.
"So, most people can't get the Cullen's to look at them let alone talk to them. Some people are jealous."
"No offense but I really, really don't care." I went to sit next to Jacob. I couldn't contain the fear rising. I took a deep breath and started doodling in my notebook. This was going to be a long day.
