Part 4

I was tossing and turning late tonight. I still can't believe I let myself talk to Jake like that. True, he wasn't around as much as he usually was, but I can't hold him on a leash like some puppy. I knew I had to let Jake go his own way, whether it had me in it or not. I just laid back against my pillows and cried myself to sleep.

A loud scream woke me up. I gasped, not sure if I was dreaming, or if something really happened.

I waited and waited, but not a sound was made.

I took a deep breath and held my head, relieved to think it was only a.

*SCREAM*

I jumped out of my bed, and ran to get my shoes. There was only one other place to hear that scream and that was at Jakes house.

I pulled my jacket out and ran down the stairs, trying to get out the door as fast as I could.

I ran. I don't know what time it was and I don't care. I needed to make sure Billy and Jake were ok.

I knocked frantically on the door and waited for someone to come to the door. The porch light went on and I saw Billy in his chair, rubbing sleep from his eyes.

"Lisa? Its two thirty in the morning."

"Is everyone ok? I heard someone screaming?" I asked, breathing hard from running.

"What? Lisa, everything fine. Jakes asleep in his bed."

I was confused. I know I heard something, but its so late im starting to second guess.

"You didn't hear someone screaming? It sounded like someone was in pain…"

Billy rolled out and took my hand.

"Everything is alright here. Go home and go back to sleep." He said, rolled back in and closed the door.

This was weird. Billy seemed very rushed to get back inside. Then again, it was late and he probably wanted to go back to bed.

But how did Billy get out of bed so quick without help?

That thought alone made me stop walking and look back at the Black house. All the lights were off and nothing looked disturbed.

I'll have to talk to Jake tomorrow and find out if he heard something too.

Once I got back into bed, there was nothing but the sound of a wolf claiming the night.

Billys POV

I watched as the girl walked back to her house, relieved that she didn't push the subject or asked to come inside. It bothered me that I had to treat her in such a manner. She was almost like a daughter to me, but I had to take care of my son.

I rolled back to my sons room and watched as the fever set in…claiming my son to the future pack of the Quileute tribe.
