Chapter 7

It took us a while to calm down after we heard that Embry was Jake's half brother. Jake was pretty mad, but also psyched. He's always dreamed they were brothers, but he couldn't believe that Billy would cheat on his mother. I had to threaten to break his neck before he stopped growling. And Edward wouldn't stop growling whenever Jake growled. I don't want to know what Jake was thinking.

"Well, on the plus side, you found out who it was," I told Embry.

"Yeah, but…"

"Would you rather it be Sam?" I asked.

He grimaced. "Actually, I would." He lowered his voice.

"Why?" I was surprised.

"Because sometimes Jake can be a little-"

Hey," I cautioned. No foul language. It's for the birds."

"Very funny. But I wasn't going to cuss. I was going to say he could be a little annoying sometimes."

"You know, it's funny," I said, snuggling against Edward. "When I first met you, we were just talking about you, and when I asked who it was-" I shook my head, remembering. "When I asked it was at the door, Jake said 'speak of the devil, and the devil will appear. I thought he was just playing around, but you make it sound like he really hates you."

"HE doesn't, but Billy seemed to. He would always glare at me whenever I came over, and sometimes he would act like I was his worse enemy. I mean, he was my father, and I barely knew him! How do you expect me to act? Like a girl falling in love with a vampire?"

Edward and I smiled, amused. Jake stuck his head through the door with a frown on his face. "Okay, I understand, Embry. You don't have to rub it in my face."

"I don't know what you're talking about," Embry said innocently.

"Am I really annoying?" he asked.

Embry looked at him. "You heard that?"

Jake smiled. "No. Rosalie did."

Edward roared with laugher. "Rosalie, you little viper."

She appeared out of nowhere, a small smile on her face. "I thought it was funny."

"You're right, it was," I agreed. "But it was supposed to be a secret."

"And Bella, why did you have to tell Embry that I called him and Quil 'the devil?'" Jake asked, voice sad.

I gasped. "Did you hear that? Or did Rosalie tell you that?"

He smiled sheepishly. "She did."

"Kind of figured."

"Bella." Jasper's soft voice cut through the noise for the first time. "Are you going to forget about Grace?"

"Never." I sighed. I wish I could fly. It would be much faster. My voice was filled with sorrow when I spoke. "Time to buy a plane ticket."

"Bella, I'm not going to le toy go alone. I'm going with you," Edward said.

"No. that's what Aro wants. I'm not gong to give him that," I argued.

"He wants you more. Do you think I want to give him that?" he roared.

"He does have a point, Bella," Jake volunteered.

"What do you care? You took her, when you knew it was wrong. Why bother help now?" I snapped.

"Bella." I turned to the sound of Jasper's voice. "Calm down."

In case you haven't noticed, I tend to get a little violent when I'm angry. I picked it up from Jake after he started hanging out with Sam. So it's really his fault, not mine. "I don't want to calm down! I want to get my daughter!"

"And I'm coming with you," Edward butt in.

"Think again, handsome. You're not going anywhere within two thousand miles of that place," I replied icily.

"That's not going to stop me."

I sighed in defeat. "I know. It didn't hurt to try though."

"I'll go," Jake volunteered.
