I do not own anything.

On the next day Jacob was already on patrol when I woke up and made myself breakfast. Dad had been staying here, because Rachel could be here any minute. I was finished with breakfast quickly and waited with Dad in the living room for Rachel.

Finally she opened the door after half an hour.

Dad rolled toward her.

"Rachel! How nice for you to visit." Dad said.

I went up to Rachel too; I haven't seen her for a while.

"Rachel, it's so good to see you."

"It's good to see you too, my little sister. I missed you." After all the hugging Rachel finally asked where Jacob was. She didn't know about the wolf-thing.

"He's away with friends, but he'll come as soon as he can to greet you." Dad said quickly and it sounded as if he had studied this sentence.

Oh, god. It's so good to be back. But I still can't wait to go again. This place is full of bad memories., Rachel thought.

Her mind-voice was much more silent than Jacob's. Did he scream his thoughts?

It was obvious that she didn't like this place. She knew it when mum still was here. I haven't known mum for long, she died short after I was born. I got over it quicker than the rest of my family.

"How long will you stay?" I asked her while she put her things into my closet. I offered her to share my cupboard while she was here. She slept on the couch in the living room.

"I don't know now, but I have to go again soon, I'm afraid. But we'll make as much fun as we can out of it, okay?" Rachel said in a parent-speaks-to-child-and-doesn't-want-to-hurt-it-with-the-truth-voice.

I raised one eyebrow. "I might was a few years younger since the last time we saw us, but I grew older, too."

Rachel just smiled innocently, so I figured I couldn't be mad at her, because she was actually right. She would go again after five days, if we were lucky she would stay a little bit longer.

At lunch Rachel told us everything about Washington D. C. and its great buildings and people. Dad was fascinated, but I was just bored. Maybe he was just playing fascinated that he could spend more time with his girl.

After lunch Rachel said she would go to the beach for a walk. Dad forced me to stay here and help him, he knew that Rachel wanted to be alone, but he didn't know that I knew too.

Jacob got home while she was away, but wasn't sad about it. He wasn't as thrilled as Dad to see Rachel again. He just showed Dad what he wanted to see.

Rachel came home again while the whole family watched TV and she just sat down next to me on the couch.

What a great visit on the beach. He's so gorgeous. And finally someone told me everything about Jacob strange disappearances.

I jumped up. All of them watched me, but I just showed Jacob to follow me into the kitchen.

"What is it?"

"Rachel knows about you!"

"What do you mean, how do you-. Okay, forget the last question."

"Rachel knows you're a werewolf."

"How?"

"Someone she met on the beach told her!"

"Who?"

"Wait."

"Huh?"

"Shush!"

I listened again.

Paul's great and we're imprinted! I wonder when he'll come and stop by, he promised.

I sank on a stool.

"She knows everything."

"What do you mean?" Jacob sat down next to me.

"She's imprinted on…Paul."

Jacob's eyes nearly popped out and he went silent.

"Please don't ask her anything about it. I don't want her to know I'm weird."

"Sure. Now that my secret's no secret anymore, I'll protect yours."

Why shouldn't I tell Rachel now about Dawn? I was so up to not telling her what I really am. And then she has to imprint on such a jerk!, Jacob thought angrily and loud.

"Jacob, please don't tell her. She'll freak out."

"Why would she freak out when she already knows the biggest secret in our family?"

"Okay, do what you think what's right. You don't have to think about how I would feel when you tell her. My feelings are second position!" I screamed. Why did he have to be so egoistic?

Rachel came into the kitchen. "What happened?"

"Jacob has to tell you something."

Jacob hesitated, but then wanted to say something. Rachel was quicker. "It's okay. I know everything. About you both. And I guess Dawn has already told you. I really love Paul and he loves me and we don't have secrets from each other."

Jacob's expressions lowered. "I don't believe it. Paul's the biggest idiot I'd ever seen." That part he also spoke for me. Then he spoke to himself. "Why does everybody in the pack have to be imprinted on my sisters?" He went outside of the kitchen. Then I heard his voice again.

Shit! I told Dawn! Ugh, never mind. Sooner or later Seth would have had to tell her on his own. I made it easier for him.

I held my head. What? What did he mean about his sisters? Did he mean Seth…?

"I know what you're thinking right now. And it's really confusing for you, am I right?"

"You have no idea what I'm thinking right now. I know what you're thinking right now!"

Was it really true what Paul told me? It would be so…strange.

"I know that I'm strange."

I ran into my room and shut the door. I thought about what Jacob had said and thought. He said Seth would have to tell me something, but before he had said everybody of the pack had imprinted on his sisters. Which meant Rachel and me. Was Seth really…? But why did he lie to me all the time? If he really was imprinted on me, why didn't he just tell me? Was it because it was so different like with Quil, Sam and…Paul? It seemed as if Rachel had found the love of her life with one eye-look, was it different with Seth and me? But how could it be different with us both? Weren't we made for each other? But we were best friends in the first place. Was it because we had loved each other differently before? It was so confusing that I lay down on my bed and fell asleep.

In my dream I was on a clearing in the middle of the woods. It seemed that I didn't know that part of the forest, but I remembered the art of trees. It was still in La Push or Forks. On the other side of the clearing was a person. I couldn't see the person, just its frames. Then my feet moved by their own. I stepped out into the meadow into the sunlight. Something sparkled in my eyes and I looked down on my arms. It was like there were thousands of mirrors on my skin, reflecting the sunlight. I looked like a disco-ball on two feet. I was calm, because I knew it was only a dream. Then the man stepped into the light too and became someone familiar. It was Seth! I ran to him, but stopped halfway. He transformed into a wolf, but had still a sad expression on his face.

Suddenly he attacked me and I sat up in my bed, screaming. I was full of sweat, crushing the blanket in my hands. Rachel came into my room, sitting down on the end of my bed.

"Sweetheart, what happened?" She asked still sleepy.

"I…had a bad dream."

I don't think I can take it a whole week looking after her. How does Billy manage it?, Rachel thought.

"He's a good Dad. You don't have to come and look after me. I'm no child anymore. I can manage my bad dreams alone." I said angrily. She had no right to speak like that about me.

Rachel stood up again and left, thankfully. I was used to no one caring about me when I had bad dreams. I lay down again and tried to close my eyes when someone different stepped into my room.

"What now?" I said while I sat up again. It was Jacob. What was he doing in my room in the middle of the night with his pants on? I realized that I still had my clothes on, too.

"You have to come." He said and pulled me out of the bed. I wasn't tired, but still didn't want him to pull me out of bed in the middle of the night.

"Jacob!" I tried to free myself, but it didn't work. He was too strong. "Where are you taking me?"

He wasn't answering with his mouth, but he answered with his mind.

Sam wants to see you.

"Why?"

He knows about your ability.

"So?"

Just come., he was more angrily now.

Couldn't he just tell me?

If Sam does anything to her, I'll give it tenfold back. If anyone of the pack does something to her.

"Why should they do something to me?"

Shoot! I forgot she listens all the time. Please, Dawn, don't listen now., he really meant it serious so I didn't listen anymore what was difficult, because he always screamed his thoughts.

-do something to her? She didn't-, stop Dawn! Don't listen!, -out of the house, I hope he didn't mean it serious when he said that-.

I closed my eyes to concentrate more on not listening to the shouts out of his mind. I didn't realize it when we arrived in a clearing in the woods. He let go of my hand and I opened my eyes again. Sam stood there with Quil and Embry, who were there when I first found out about my ability. I was afraid of all of them. Jacob thankfully didn't leave my side.

I'm now trying to make contact with her., Sam thought, it is pretty much like when we contact on wolf-minds.

Was he just thinking nonsense?

I wonder if it really is true that she can read minds., Quil thought. I remembered his voice.

Jacob's really related to some crazy persons., Embry thought. I ignored this bad thought.

I now realized that Jacob's voice was really louder than their others. WHEN DOES THIS JERK FINALLY BEGIN TO TALK?

Dawn Black, you know that your ability is something unnatural to us all. We only know about one other – person – who can do such a thing. But he's not normal with flesh and blood.

"I know the one." I said normally. He was obviously surprised that I really could hear his thoughts. Quil and Embry looked confused at me and Jacob knew that I just answered an unspoken question.

Sam went on. You also know that we have to do something about it. You can't tell another person about your ability.

"What? You have to do something about it?"

Jacob's temper god worse. WHAT DID THIS FUCKER THINK ABOUT HER? SHE DIDN'T DO ANYTHING! TELL HIM, DAWN!, Jacob suddenly said while he looked into my direction.

"I didn't do anything with it. And I can't do anything with it." I said with a cracking voice.

TELL HIM MORE!, Jacob forced.

"What do you want from me?" I asked in Jacob's direction.

I WANT YOUR SAFETY., he suddenly said, calmer.

"I know." I looked on the ground.

Quil, Embry and Sam just looked confused from Jacob to me and back.

Sam ignored after some time the silence and spoke now loud to us all.

"The pack knows about your ability. And you're not allowed to tell anybody else." Sam said with a deep undertone. He seemed very angry and I got scared. Jacob told me that they would transform when they couldn't hold their temper anymore. And what if Sam attacks me now? He could kill me.

"Does someone else know?"

"Yes."

Sam took deep breaths before he answered again.

"Who?"

"My sister."

"Who told her?"

"She…found out." For some strange reason I didn't Paul to get into trouble with Sam.

WHY DON'T YOU TELL HIM IT WAS PAUL?, Jacob asked.

"You are not allowed to answer to unspoken questions in the presents of someone unknown. Why did you do that?"

"I didn't, I-." Sooner or later he would find out it was Paul. They could read their minds, why didn't I tell him? Because I was just stupid.

"Then how did she find out?" Sam tried hard not to overreact, but it seemed as if it didn't work the way he wished to.

"I don't know-!"

Suddenly Jacob ran over to me and knocked me back to the end of the meadow. I didn't see Sam transforming, but I knew he did, because Jacob transformed too. I hit a tree hard. My back hurt so much that I couldn't really stand up. I looked up at Jacob and he already began a fight with Sam. Embry was also in his wolf form and tried to do something and Quil ran to me.

"Run, Dawn. RUN!" He said and I got up as fast as I could. I ran away from the meadow, away from the shocking picture of two wolfs acting with their instincts. It was a horrible view.

The forest didn't change, but I also didn't know where I ran. I just ran away from the meadow. I didn't know if I ran toward home or into the complete wrong direction. I just knew that I had to get away from two crazy wolfs, attacking each other. I didn't care where I ended up, or even if I would run the whole night.

Suddenly I heard something cracking. It sounded like a branch, but for that it cracked too silent. I stopped and looked around. What was that? Then a shadow whooshed past me. It was so fast that the wind knocked me against a tree, against my arm. My arm made a cracking noise. Shit! I hoped it hadn't broken, but the pain said something different.

Then another shadow ran past me, but this one didn't blow much wind; just a light breeze.

Suddenly someone grabbed my left arm and turned me round. I looked into the face of Seth. What was he doing here?

"Dawn? Is everything alright? What happened?" He asked so many questions at once, I was afraid to answer any of them.

"You hit me against a tree."

"I did what?"

"Yes. You broke my arm!" I screamed. The pain shot suddenly into my arm. For the last seconds I hadn't felt anything, but now all the pain came at once.

"DAWN!" He tried to over scream my screams, but I was louder.

Dawn, please. Tell me what happened. I'm dying not to know why you're hurt.

His unspoken words made me relax, although I was sure he wanted me to read his thoughts right now. I stopped screaming and took deep breaths while I looked at his face. I remembered again that beauty and how it was carved by angels.

"You're beautiful." I whispered. I didn't know if I had lost my mind already, but just thinking about him was brilliant. Only him in the world felt pretty good, he eased my pain.

Seth raised one eyebrow but then eased it again. "Dawn? Please tell me what happened."

"Jacob-, Jacob and-…Sam. They're fighting! We have to help them!" I tried to get up, but my body didn't want to, so I stayed kneeing on the ground.

"No, Dawn. We have to get you home-."

"No!" I cut him. "Please not home…bring me somewhere else. Please. Not home." I breathed heavily. I didn't want to see Dad now asking questions how I had done this what happened and where I had been in the middle of the night. I was sure he already had begun to worry about me. And with Rachel in the same house it would have gotten worse, definitely.

Seth seemed to understand and nodded. Then he helped me up, but when I wanted to go on my own, he started to carry me. With every other person I would have resisted, but Seth carrying me felt good. It was even better than Jacob carrying me.

Seth was so warm, he felt even warmer than Jacob, though I knew they were all the same. But not for me. Seth was the warmest, Seth was the nicest and Seth was the sweetest. Seth was everything.

I buried my head into his chest and felt him smiling. I smiled too.

Such a nice feeling.

"It is." I said silently. He didn't response, but I knew he heard it.

When we finally arrived where he carried me – I didn't know where –, he opened a door and stepped inside on a wooden floor. It must have been a house I knew, but I hoped he had not brought me home. Then he walked slowly on, the door behind us shut itself, and opened another door. I felt a bed under me. He had laid me down on a bed, but now I was sure that it wasn't mine. Mine wasn't so warm quickly after I had laid myself on it. It was Seth's.

"Why did you bring me to your place?" I asked him as he shut the door.

"It was the only place I could bring you." He answered thoughtfully, but still smiled innocently afterwards.

He sat down next to me on the bed, but suddenly jumped up again.

"I have to get a doctor. Your arm's broken."

"No, Seth! Please don't leave me." I whined.

"It breaks my heart to leave you now, but it's best for you if I get him."

"Who?"

"A doctor. You'll be okay, Dawn. Just try to get some sleep."

Then he vanished out of the door. This time he took again something with him, although I knew it was necessary for him to leave. I tried not to think much what Sue or Leah would say, but since Sam and Jacob got into a fight I was sure all of the werewolves were out on the field now. And they all knew about me, reading thoughts. Leah would hate me now that she knew I could do such a thing like Edward, but I had to tell Jacob and with telling Jacob came a few more things afterwards. But I didn't think it would get so big like Sam fighting with Jacob! I didn't want it to be so big. I wanted it to be a normal life, what I actually should have forgotten after Jacob had told me he was a werewolf.

My thoughts trailed off and I landed on the big meadow where Sam had tested me if the rumor was true. I saw Jacob lying as a wolf on the ground, but wasn't sure if he was dead or just unconscious.

I ran up to him. I wanted to scream his name, but nothing came out of my mouth.

Suddenly Jacob disappeared and the meadow changed into the clearing from the dream I had earlier this night. It was nearly midday and I stood alone in the middle of the clearing. I looked down on my hands again and glittered again so strange. Then a shadow appeared again on the side of the lighting. Seth came running toward me. Finally my mouth managed to talk.

"Seth!" I said, but not with my voice. It was a beautiful, bell-like voice.

I wanted to hug him, but he backed away.

"Who did this to you?" He said whiney.

Suddenly he disappeared into mist just like Jacob before and in his place stood someone familiar. It was me, only that she was much more beautiful. Her body was carved more like a woman's. I pressed one hand into her direction and she mirrored my gesture. Then I realized her red burning eyes.

I sat up on Seth's bed and breathed heavily. Who was that monster? It couldn't have been me.

"Dawn, are you okay?" Seth asked with a worried voice.

I looked into his direction and saw him standing next to the bed, ready to grab me. The local doctor sat on the bed next to my legs and I realized that my right arm was bound in.

"It's not broken." The doctor said as if he hadn't realized I had gotten up. "It'll be healed in two weeks."

In two weeks the school had already started again, great.

"Will she be okay?"

"Yes. She just has to stay calm."

Then the doctor got out of the room. I wondered why Sue hadn't already waked up. My answer was responded as I looked out of the window. It was lighter outside than before so Sue must have already stood up.

"Seth, what happened with Jacob?" Sam was uninteresting for me after he had spoken to me like that.

"They're both okay. It's a mystery how they could survive during such a strong fight."

I felt ashamed. They fought about me. But I was sure something else had made Sam wounded before, else wise he wouldn't have exploded. He's the best at holding his temper.

"What did you dream that you got up so quickly?" He sat down next to me on the bed.

I didn't want to have secrets from him, especially when we promised not to have one from each other. But the bad thing about it was that the pack would also know after Seth would know. And Paul would tell Rachel as well would Rachel tell Dad. I didn't care; the important thing was that Seth knew.

"I dreamt about Jacob. I dreamt that he had lost the fight between him and Sam, but then the dream changed. You were there, but I wasn't…me."

"What do you mean?"

"You asked me 'Who did this to you?' and I couldn't answer, because I didn't know. Then you vanished and a mirror stood in your place and I saw…me…with…red burning eyes." I got slower at the end.

Seth opened his mouth to talk, but shut it again. He didn't know what to say. In his head he tried to see my dream in pictures, but it was hard for one who didn't dream it.

"What…? You had red eyes?" He said slowly.

I mouthed yes, but he just looked away. I figured he just meant it literally. He couldn't take it, it looked like it.

Suddenly Sue came into the room.

"Dawn-, oh. Sorry." She smiled and vanished out of the room again.

"It was just a dream, right?" I asked.

"Right." Seth was dealing with another thing. "Dawn, about that I…lied to you. I'm so sorry. It was just so different from the others like Sam or Quil or Jared. I know I shouldn't have lied to you, but I was afraid you didn't feel about me the same-."

I cut him with a kiss. I hadn't realized that I had wanted a kiss so much until our lips finally met. He quickly kissed me back and hugged me too. His kiss was so full of love that I tried hard to compare with him. For the first time in the last weeks it felt good to have a person I could trust everything on. He was the best person I could happen to meet in my whole life. He was the boy I loved. He was my soul mate.

Suddenly someone opened the door again and Seth and I parted slowly, because we actually didn't want to stop kissing each other.

Leah stood inside the door with her mouth dropped.

I thought he wouldn't tell her!

"He didn't. Jacob did." I said casually.

Leah looked confused, but then got that I could read her mind, so she shut the door quickly again behind her.

You're such a vampire freak!

"I'm not!" I called after her.

"What did she think?"

"She thought you wouldn't tell me and that I was a freak." I said again casually. The kiss seemed to have blown away all my anger or pain or miserable feelings.

"I swore not to tell you until I thought you like me too, but since Jacob had told you…"

"I am glad Jacob had told me, I would have been afraid to ask…"

Seth smiled and started kissing me again. This time the kiss was more intensely. He pressed me back on the pillow and held with his hands my waist. I (fahren) with my left hand through his hair and wanted to kiss him the same way back, but it was difficult with one arm bound up. Then I realized that he was kneeing above me. He didn't make it on purpose, but it would look for a person who just came inside a little bit shocking. So I pressed him up again so that we both sat up, but he didn't stop kissing. And I didn't want to stop actually. Then it came over me and I pressed Seth down onto the bed on the other side. I forgot my hurt arm and pressed Seth on the bed, what I was surprised of that it worked, he surely wanted me to press him down. I stroke with my hands over his bare chest and felt a new, good feeling during it. It felt so good being so near him and even feeling him so near to my body. I finally realized how much I had wanted all this. How much I had wanted him.

"Mum…and…Leah…are…gone…" He breathed through our kisses.

Then he turned me round so that he kneed again over me.

While I began pulling off his trousers, he began pulling off my clothes.

Tell me what you think, the end is not far off.
