Telling Bella

A/N: Yay! Bella finds out that the Cullens are back! The calm before the storm. Oh, and the first part of ROTC was on Wednesday night, so this will be Thursday because Sam's set up the meeting for Friday night, ok?

Warning: Bella WILL be OOC. Just wait and see as to why. Let's just say she's been living around the wolves a little too long. There will be just the one S-word in here and one F-word.

-Chapter 7-

Jacob Black woke up the next morning to the sound of his daughters chatting happily and the smell of bacon frying. He groaned as the memories of the previous night came flooding back to him: The Cullens had retuned to Forks. Jake groaned a second time, remembering the task which lay before him: telling his wife that her former boyfriend had come back; seventeen years after he left her. No doubt Bella would want to go over there and break her hand punching his face, like she had done all those years ago to Jake.

"Jake, honey! Breakfast's ready!" Bella called up the stairs.

"Down in a minute!" Jake called back. Getting out of bed, Jake pulled on his usual cut-offs and threw on an old tee. He went downstairs and into the kitchen; where Jake's three daughters, Izzy, Marie and Olivia were eating bacon sandwiches before school. Long ago had Marie learnt to control her temper at school; after nearly ripping Christine Jones' face off. Marie would have done, if Izzy hadn't stepped in when she did.

"S'up, Daddio?" Izzy asked her father.

"Izabelle, how many times have I told you not to call your father 'Daddio?'" Bella Black scolded her eldest. "Honestly, she's as bad as Quil was when Robbie was born… Morning, sweetie," she greeted her husband.

"Mornin', babe. Girls, could you do me a favour and skedaddle? Your mother and I need to talk." Jake shot Izzy and Marie a look. Izzy cottoned on straight away.

"Sure thing, Daddio. C'mon, Maz. Hey, Olly, how about a piggy-back ride to school?" she offered to her seven-year-old sister.

When their daughters had left, Bella turned to her husband.

"Well? Jacob?" she asked. She felt scared, that Jake was going to tell her that it was over.

Jake sighed. "The Cullens are back," he stated.

"So?" Bella questioned, thinking of Alice Cullen, the only one she'd really gotten on with.

"So's he. Edward." Jake spat out the name like it was a disgusting curse word.

"Shit!" Bella exclaimed and went to get her coat. Fuck Alice, she was going to tear her ex to pieces. She was the wife and mother of wolves, after all.

"Bella, wait. You can't just go barging over there-" Jake started.

"But I won't. They'll hear and smell me. I've been living around wolves for the last seventeen years; no doubt your scent has ingrained into my skin by now," Bella interrupted.

"You can't go, full stop. Sam set up a meeting at midnight tomorrow, so we can all be there. You're gonna hafta be there, too, for Eddie Sullen. Your leech of a ex will wanna see ya. Expect ya to be a nun, too." Jake joked.

"Well, he's in for a shock because the sweet, innocent little Isabella Swan has been six feet under for the last seventeen and a half years. Crude, filthy, loud Isabella Black shovelled dirt over her when I chose you over him that day in the forest," Bella said, shrugging off her coat.

Jake chuckled. "Tha's ma gurl," he said. Bella laughed at that.

-Chapter 7-

A/N: At the time of writing, it is exactly 01:09 UTC time. Is it short? Sorry if it's too short. I just wanna get this outta the way.

Sorry, it took me so LO-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-NG to update, but I had my laptop taken away again… don't ask me why.

I'm going to ask you to do something I've never asked you to do before: Leave me a review. Let me know of any mistakes I've missed, though I have fairly good grammar and spelling. Tell me if you love the story, or if you hate it. Leave me some ideas if you want, or some constructive criticism. I don't like flames. If you don't like the story then stop reading, simple as.

ANYWAY! Yes, it's done! The calm before the storm is OV-VER! Uh-uh uh-uh uh-uh…. Sorry, carried away. Moving on, would you like a taster? I've only got for the next two chappies, because I've not got the tenth chapter mapped out yet, let alone typed or even written up. Though I do have an idea… Anyway, on with the tasters!

In the next chapter, the wolves meet someone new- entitled 'Return Of The Cullens Part 2'

Snippet:

'"Tell me, which of you is pregnant?"'

In the chapter after that, the wolves get a shock- entitled 'Decisions'

Snippet:

'"SHE'S WHAT?"'

I'll see you all in 'ROTC P2'!

Love you all,

'Gana xx

P.S: I've decided to keep ROTC in two parts, so the chapter after will be about the aftermath of it all. See you soon! xx
