I apologize to you all. I've had a serious case of writers block and instead of trying to work through it I tried the whole "ignore it and it'll go away" tactic….needless to say it hasn't worked. Feel free to pelt me with miscellaneous random objects, I deserve it. My goal for myself is to have at least two new chapters out for you guys by the 5th, which coincidentally is my birthday. It's my own little birthday present to me. Wish me luck and bombard me with reminders of promise please!!!!


So obviously it didn't get out by the 5th…..in fact I'm over a month late, but better late than never right? ……Please don't hurt me .


That girl is so…frustrating! I finally understand what they mean by "so close, yet so far."

How she can be so distant from me and yet so close to the pack as a whole is a mystery to me. Everyone agrees she's part of the pack whether she acknowledges the imprint or not, I'm just …afraid. I refuse to let this be another Bella. Even though the others assure me this is the real deal I'm not rushing into things. Ana's just getting settled in for God's sake! She's only been here for a month.

Against my better judgment, however, the others have convinced me it's a good idea to at least tell her our legends. Even if we don't tell her they're true. I don't think I've ever been this nervous in my life. Not even when we told Bella.

What if she laughs at them!

What if she thinks we're all totally bonkers to still listen to legends like a bunch of little kids!!

"Dude, relax it'll be fine. I promise Ana's not gonna make fun of you or anything stupid like that. …Cause I know that's what's going through your head right now." I glare at Quil. We're walking along the beach waiting for everyone to arrive. Leah's arrival was the most nerve-racking for me because she was bringing Ana (although if you asked Ana she'd probably say Leah was dragging her. She seems to hate the bonfires).

As we walk up to our usual bonfire spot Sam and Emily are just pulling up with a load of supplies. You know food, wood, and the works. As we start to set up everyone else arrives until all that's left are Leah and Ana.

A car pulls up and a bunch of Forks kids spill out and away from us. If they interfere with tonight I will hurt every last one of them. I swear. Another noise attracts my attention. There's Ana and Leah on that damn bike. That thing really makes me nervous. She's so fragile what happens if she falls and I'm not there?

No! Stop it Jacob; we're taking it slow remember!

But God is she gorgeous I didn't know you could have skin that dark with blonde hair it's so perfect for her. Like some great Goddess.

All the girls start cooking and getting who knows what ready. There's a reason there are no guys helping. As we finish up it just starting to get dark so we waste some time just talking. Ana is of course as far away from me as she can get.

I wonder if she does that on purpose.

Once full dark sets in we settle down for the telling of the legends. I didn't want to drag Dad out here so Sam agreed to tell them. I don't trust myself not to say something stupid in the middle of it.

Like how her eyes look like sapphires in the firelight.

…Yea exactly like that.

The entire time Sam tells the legends (which he's pretty good at surprisingly) I watch her reaction. She seems truly interested. I never would have guessed. As the legends end Ana seems lost in thought. And just when she's about to say something….

"Hey! Y'all are way too quiet. You should party with us!" One of them slung an arm around Ana. That's it; they're all dead. Quil and both moved to tell the guy off but before we could get over there he was already on the ground.

Damn how did she move that fast?

"If you ever touch me like that again I can guarantee you will be in a world of pain."

We all stared at her wide eyed. I didn't think it was possible for a human to move that fast. In fact I'm pretty sure it's not. Ana seemed to realize how fast she had moved because she looked up at the pack, opened her mouth, then turned and bolted. Strange for as fast as she moved a minute ago she's not running any faster than a normal human.

Wait... She's running...away.

Shit.


Let me know what you think! Comments are always appreciated!
