The motorbikes didn't need to be hidden any further than simply placing them in Jacob's shed. Billy's wheelchair couldn't maneuver the uneven ground separating it from the house
Jacob and I started pulling the first bike -the red one, which was destined for Bella- to pieces immediately. He opened up the passenger door of the Rabbit so Bella could sit on the seat instead of the ground, then we continued to work, I sometimes enjoyed getting my hands dirty, but not all the time though.
While we worked, Jacob chartered happily, bringing only the lightest of nudges from us to keep the conversation rolling. He updated us on the progress of his Sophomore year of school, running on about his classes and his two best friends.
"Quil and Embry?" Bella interrupted. "Those are unusual names"
Jacob chuckled. "Quil is a hand-me-down, and I think Embry got named after a soap opera star." I couldn't help but chuckle at that. "I can't say anything though. They fight dirty if you start on their names- they'll tag team you"
"Good friends" I raised one eyebrow.
"No, they are. Just don't mess with their names." Just then, a call echoed in the distance.
"Jacob!" Someone shouted.
"Is that Billy?" Bella asked.
"No." Jacob duchess his head and it looked like he was blushing under his brown skin. "Speak of the devil," he mumbled, "and the devil shall appear."
"Jake? Are you out here?" The shouting voice was close now.
"Yeah!" Jacob shouted back and sighed.
They waited through the short silence while I attempted to gently remove a piece from the motorcycle, until the footsteps that I heard metres away got closer was when I looked up. Two tall, dark-skinned boys strolled around the corner into the shed.
The first boy was shorter than the other one, he was more burly. His white T-shirt strained over his well-developed chest, and he seemed gleefully conscious of that fact. His hair was so short it was almost a buzz.
The second boy caught my eye the most. He was slender, and almost as tall as Jacob. My lips parted a little, my saliva almost choking me at the process. His black hair was chin length and parted in the middle, one tucked behind his left ear, while the right side swung free. He was handsome in my opinion.
My knees felt like they were being electrocuted as I jolted upwards and stumbled backwards, knocking off the motorcycle. But Jacob easily caught it and steadied me at the same time. How embarrassing.
"Are you alright?" I almost didn't hear what he was saying. My words probably weren't gonna function properly so I just eagerly nodded my head so he could let go... And I could hide under his car and die.
Both boys stopped short when they witnessed my little accident there. But luckily the attention went straight from me to Bella. The thin, good-looking-boy-in-my-opinion glanced swiftly back and forth between Bella and Jacob, then his eyes landed on mine, and they stayed there. I hope my body doesn't embarrass me again, especially my knees because I depend on them to keep me standing.
Come on Anastasia... You can look away
