Chapter Four
Recap: I watched them as they walked inside to discuss my future living arrangements.
………….
I could hear them arguing as I stood outside in which they thought was out of hearing distance. "Dad come on! She has no where to stay!" Bella yelled. "I'm sorry Bells but we just don't have the room for another person!" Charlie said sternly but not too loudly so he thought I wouldn't hear.
I sat myself down in the lush grass that stretched out from the house and I saw Mr. Pretty Boy walk around from the back of the house. "Ah I see someone is up from their nap, how was it love?" I said mockingly. Edward looked at me viciously. "Pip down pip-squeak." He said in an annoyed voice as he sat down next to me, "So what are you doing out here? Where did Bella go?" he continued. "Ah, well you see our little Bella is inside as of now talking to Charlie about getting me a place to stay." I said happily.
Edward looked at me somewhat disgusted. "Well let's just hope that you don't stay here." He said mockingly. I looked over to him and glared, "Well be happy pretty boy because you'll probably get your wish." I said kind f downhearted. Edward looked over to me and frowned. "Ouch, well sorry." He said. It went silent between us; he didn't seem like a very big conversation guy.
Edward started sniffing the air. Whoa, flippin weirdo, he looked over to me. I looked back at him. "Ick, what? Why do you keep staring?" I said disgusted. He looked at me annoyed now and said, "Are you sure that you're half werewolf?" I averted my eyes from him and looked at the house. "Yep eddy, pretty sure. You want a demonstration?" I said mockingly. He looked away as well. "No that's ok, it's just that, there are other werewolves here as well and you don't smell anything like them." He said, "And you can also control your anger MUCH better than the majority of them." He continued. 'Whatever' I thought. And I turned my attention back toward Bella and Charlie.
"Yes! Thank you dad, thank you, thank you, thank you!" Bella screamed joylessly. My head perked up at the sound of this victory. Edward's on the other hand went down. I jumped up and ran to the door where Bella was walking out. Edward got up and walked along too. Bella saw him and she perked up immediately. She ran over to him and leaped up onto him. "You're awake!" she giggled. Edward held her, I made gagging noises. "SO!" I interrupted, "Where will my lovely home be?" I asked.
Bella and Edward finally unlocked from each other and Bella turned to face me. "Ok, well we don't have and room here for you but, my dad pulled some strings with one of his best friends." I looked at her quizzically, "Which is?" I asked. Bella smiled and said "The Blacks!" I looked at her with an odd expression. "Now Bella dear let's not be racist now!" I said with a shocked expression. Bella looked at me dully. "That's the name of the family dear." I looked at her annoyed. "Bella I know that, I was kidding." Edward during all of this was laughing his little butt off.
I turned and looked at him, "And just what is up with you huh!?" I yelled. Edward regained composure of him self and attempted a straight face. I looked at him, "Well you gonna tell me or not?!" I asked. He smiled again and said, "Out of everyone in Forks you had to get stuck with the other werewolf!" Edward doubled over laughing again. I looked around quickly, "WH-What?!" I yelled.
Charlie came out of the house. "Ok kids! Who wants to come with us?!" he yelled happily. Bella and Edward walked in the house and I was alone again with my dad, not dad. He looked at me and smiled. "Looks like it's just us. Shall we go then Jewels?" I looked at him annoyed, Jewels? What the fuck? Eh, oh well.
Both Charlie and I got into the police cruiser; I could tell already that this was going to be an embarrassing car ride.
………….
We were pulling into the Black's property; the car ride was extremely boring with only a few words said about the weather. We pulled into the makeshift driveway and I immediately got nervous. Another werewolf lives here! What if it can tell that I'm half vampire?! Charlie saw the worried expression on my face. "Don't worry, you'll love it here. Billy's got a son around your age, you'll love him." WHAT?! A SON!? Charlie honked the horn and we got out of the car.
I walked closely behind Charlie. As we made our way toward the door, a VERY, VERY, VERY tall boy ran out. "Charlie!" he called out as he ran up to us. I stayed tucked behind Charlie. "Hey Jacob!" Charlie said waving, which recently exposed me. Jacob looked behind Charlie and spotted me. I looked up at him. He winked. Oh my god who does that?! Ugh but I blushed a deep red anyway!
Jacob walked around Charlie to get a better look. Charlie spun around as well. "So Jake, THIS fine young lass, is Juliet. She will be staying with you." He said with a smile. Jacob looked me up and down, and I blushed yet again. "Hey, hey, hey! Stop looking at me like that you pervert!" I practically yelled. Charlie looked over to Jacob and Jacob looked back as I stood there awkwardly.
"Well, let's go talk to Billy now shall we?" Charlie said to break the silence. I looked over to him and followed him as he walked off. Jacob standing there in awe by him self, finally realized that he was alone and jogged up to the house to be a part of the conversation.
I looked back and Jacob was walking steadily toward Charlie, Billy, and I. He slowed his walk when he saw me staring and smiled sheepishly. I giggled and smiled back. He was really cute now that I look at him again. But man again, boy was he tall! He walked up to us and stood there beside me. Billy looked up from his wheelchair, and said, "Well, since all you do Charlie, is favors for me, I guess I'll do this for you." He smiled up a crooked smile. "But," he continued, "Since space here is even tighter than it is at Charlie's house, I'm afraid that Juliet and Jacob will have to share a room." My head shot around from looking at Jacob to looking at Billy. "What?!" I screamed. Fwap. Jacob smacked me in the back of the head. I turned around and glared at him, and he smiled the most adorable goofy smile, and said, "Aw come on it's not like it'll be that bad." I looked at him again, that bad? Oh so now sharing a room with me would be bad anyway hmm?
Whatever, I shook it off. "Jake, go show Juliet to your room eh?" Charlie said with a sly smile. Ok that was it; Charlie was now on my bad side for mocking me like this. So Jacob took me to his room to put my stuff away. I walked in Jacob's room and looked around. Oh jeez. This room is so small! Oh my god. And there is only one bed. TWIN! Jesus! I have to sleep in the same bed as this giraffe too! Oh my lord I am going to die. 'Now now, think positive.' I thought, 'It can't be all that bad, he is awfully cute." I smiled at the thought. Jacob looked at me with another goofy smile. "Thinkin' about something nice huh?" he asked. I looked over to him and smiled, "Only because I get to sleep with a cutie like you." I said as I winked and walked out of the room to join Billy and Charlie again.
Jacob stood there blushing, and then jogged out of the room to join the group.
………….
I walked up to Charlie and Billy as they were both in mid conversation. "So all my stuff is in Jacob's room." I said as I walked up to them both. They looked over to me and smiled. "Well that's good." Billy said giving a nice old guy smile. I smiled back. I looked to Charlie and he smiled as well, "Well now, you have a nice time, I'm going to go back home now, I can't leave Bella there with that boy all by herself for long. Jacob, you take care of her and help her settle in ok?" Charlie called to Jacob. I smiled again to Charlie, "Please tell Bella I said hi ok? And that I'll come by to visit soon." Charlie waved a goodbye as he got into his cruiser and yelled back an ok. And I stood there and watched him drive off.
