I went back down to the ground when I got out of the forest. "Ahhhh!" I screamed my frustration. I looked inside the house door quick and saw it was time to go to the bonfire. I looked down at myself to check for any twigs or anything.
I kinda hit a tree on the way back. Good, nothing .
I started the 80 feet walk to Jake's house. They were on the other side near the shed .As I turned the corner someone grabbed me, blindfolded me, then laughed.
It was Quil, and…..someone else.
I squirmed around. "Quil!" I said He laughed again.
I felt him jog over to somewhere. He gently set me down, but kept a hold of my wrist so I couldn't take off the blindfold.
"Dude, come on!" I said.
I heard other people laugh. 3 ladies and the rest of the Pack.
I squirmed around more. "O.K., if someone doesn't take this blindfold off of me I'm gonna kick someone!" I threatened.
They all laughed and I felt another pack member pick me up.
I squirmed around.
"Violent little are we?' Jake whispered in my ear.
I smiled. "Yes, I am." I said.
"Well, in that case I really don't feel like getting kicked by you, so here," he said and took off the blindfold.
The whole Pack was sitting by a fire, and Emily and that Caroline girl was sitting next to her. My mom was sitting on a bench near a table. Billy was sitting in his wheel chair. They all smiled at me.
"Hey Jake? Can I get down?" I asked.
"Hmmm. Let me see,…. nah" he said. I glared at him.
He laughed and set me down on a little stump. All of the Pack's eyes widened as they got full view of my dress.
I smiled. Emily winked at me. "Nice" she mouthed. I laughed and so did Caroline.
"Oh, and Nyala this is Caroline, she won't be going to Forks High School but she lives right down the road from you. She's my 3rd cousin." Emily said. I smiled and shook hands with Caroline. She had long, light brown hair and the same copper skin as the others did.
"Hey Caroline. I have a question, have they pushed you off a cliff yet?" I asked, smiling. She laughed. "No, not yet, and I do so hope I won't ever get that privilege." she said in a prim and proper voice.
We laughed. I felt Jake touch my necklace. I felt his warm hand slide onto my shoulder. I looked up into his eyes. "Hi" I said.
"Hi" he said.
I laughed. "You like it?' he asked.
"Yeah, other than you going into my room like a stalker it rocks!" I enthused.
He laughed. "Sorry"
"It's O.K." I said. I saw my mom out of the corner of my eye smiling .
Hmm, I don't want to go out with Jake yet… I stood up and walked over to where Sam, Emily and Caroline were sitting. I sat right in the middle of Sam and Emily.
Hmm, Leah must already be heart broken, I realize, If Sam and Emily are together.
She never hangs out with the Pack, I guess. Emily and Sam laugh.
"Mind if I sit here?' I ask.
"No, go right ahead" Sam said, smirking. I smiled.
"Why thank you" I said.
I saw my moms face fall, she was probably hoping I would stay near Jake. I looked over at Jake, he was watching me, smiling.
"Oh, You don't want to sit with me?' he asked in a little kids voice, giving me a pout. "Aww, I'm sorry Jake, here" I said and got up and walked over to him. I started to sit down but then stood up and sat near Quil and Paul.
Everyone laughed. "Well, if you won't sit here by your own will, I guess I'll just have to take you by force. Guys?" Jake said, standing up and cracking his knuckles.
The rest of the Pack stood up and towered over me. I stared up at them and smiled. I bolted from my seat over towards my house.
I heard them run after me. I kept running, knowing they would eventually get me. I mean, they are werewolves.
Oh, that's funny, I email someone and say , "I got chased by werewolves."
Nice. I laughed.
Just then Jake got his hands around my waist. I squealed and tried to run. "Emily, Caroline! Help!" I said.
"Sam!" Emily called.
Sam turned and ran off towards her. She shrugged. "Sorry, I only have control over one" she said. "I don't have control over any of them" Caroline said, laughing.
"Do they always do this with you?" she asked.
"Yeah" I said.
Jake held me close to him .Laughing evilly. I glared.
"Muahaha, I have the princess!" he said. I tired to squirm out of his evil clutches. "Mom?!" I asked, knowing she wouldn't help me at all. She smiled at me.
Jake hugged me tight. I smelled his forest-y , wood-syiness. I smiled at little.
He twirled me around and I laughed.
"Fine Fine! I'll sit by you!" I said.
"Yay!" he cheered , then walked back over and sat me down on the stump.
He sat right next to me on the ground since there wasn't a stump there.
"Dude, your sitting on the ground" I stated.
"Dude-ett. I know" he laughed.
"Well, sit on something else!" I said, feeling bad for him.
"O.k….." he said .He stood up, walked to the woods, and a few seconds later came back with a stone.
He set it down next to me then sat on it. I stared at him, my arms crossed. He smiled. Everyone laughed.
"O.k., I'll make you a deal. You stand up. I sit on that and then you sit on me." he said. I glared. He stood up, picked me up with his hands, sat down and then sat me down on him. I squirmed around.
"Let me off!" I said. He just pulled me closer, hugging me.
Everyone laughed again. I pried at his fingers but they didn't budge. I gave up. Whatever. He smiled, having won this fight.
"Food!" Billy called, having gone to the table and set up stuff with my mom. Jake stood up, still holding me .He slung me over his shoulder.
"Hey! I want food too!" I complained.
He just laughed and got his food .Which was a ton.
Emily and Caroline were standing behind him. I grunted and crossed my arms. They laughed.
I started swing my legs against Jake's stomach. He laughed. "I don't even feel that" he said. I groaned.
"Why are you being mean and depriving me of food?" I asked. He laughed. "I don't know"
"Meaner" I mumbled.
"Did you just call me meaner?" he asked, laughing.
"Yeah, so?" I said.
"Man, you got a little attitude there today" he said.
"No, I just dislike it when people steal my food or don't give me any" I said.
He walked back over to the stump and sat down, putting me upright again. I snuck my hand over to grab some of his chips .He didn't notice, he was too busy eating.
I threw the chips in my mouth and happily munched away. "Did you just steal some of my chips?" he asked, three seconds later.
I shook my head no. Mom and Emily laughed. He gave me a stare.
I just looked him in the eyes, not saying anything, putting on my innocent act.
He turned away, back to eating .I quickly grabbed one of his hamburgers.
This time his head snapped over in my direction .I quickly took a big bite of it .Ha, he couldn't eat it now! He glared at me, smiling .I smiled and chewed the burger.
He took it from my hands. He took big bite of it.
"Ewwww" I said, my nose crinkling. "That's gross" I said.
He just smiled and finished the whole burger before my eyes. I glared.
This process continued for another 10 minutes, I would get something to eat from his plate, he would take it and eat it after I already took a bite.
Finally Sam broke us up and gave me a plate of ,since Jacob had been holding me, not letting go ,so even if I wanted to I wouldn't have been able to get up and get a plate of my own. I quickly devoured the meal before Jake could take any.
Jake smiled t me. Out of the corner of my eye I saw Billy watching us, smiling, just like my mom. He was part of the plan too! Ughh. I sat there, totally mad.
Jake noticed my mood change. "What?" he whispered in my ear .It tickled.
"Notin." I said and turned my face away from him.
He laughed. "O.K….." he suddenly jumped up ,keeping hold of me.
"Hey!" I said. He ran over to the cliffs edge. I clung to his shoulders. "Jake, no" I said. "Woohoo! Cliff diving!" I heard Quil shout.
The whole Pack except Sam ran over to us. I kept clinging to Jake, he kept a hold of me, his arm under my legs, holding me up. He smiled.
"Ready?' he asked. "No!" I said. He laughed and catapulted us off the cliff.
I screamed and watched the rest of them fall down around us, all laughing like maniacs of course. Suddenly Jake let go of me. I screamed again.
He smiled and did a flip in the air. I laughed a little. This cliff was higher up than the others, probably the highest up. I had about 10 seconds before impact with the water. I did a flip in the air too. "Woohooo!" I shouted.
We all hit the water then. I felt Jake grab me around the waist under the water and help me up to the surface. I laughed as soon as I took a breath. He laughed too. I started to swim over to Jake to climb on his back so I wouldn't have to swim back, but I felt some one grab me from behind.
"Ahh!" I screamed. I turned around to see Quil and Embry, holding me. "We have the princess! …Once again! Ha ha Prince Jake, we have stolen her!" Quil laughed.
They started swimming away from Jake. "Jake!" I shouted.
He smiled and swam after us. As soon as Quil and Embry hit the beach they ran for it. I was laughing the entire time, not even looking behind us to see if Jacob was catching up yet. They ran back up the road and over to the bonfire.
"Emily! Caroline!" I screamed. They smiled. Just then Jake tackled Quil and Embry. He jumped up and caught me before I could hit the ground.
He held me and ran to his garage I remember from the books.
Once inside he took a cover off a shiny, black motorcycle. He grabbed two helmets and tossed one to me. I was frozen .Motorcycles.
Oh God….. He grabbed the helmet from me and put it on my head then put me on the seat behind him. I held onto his waist for dear life.
He revved the motorcycle, the engine growled. And we zoomed out of there, like,…. a bat out of hell to tell you the truth. I looked behind us to see Quil and Embry running after us. I laughed, Jake made the bike go faster and we hit the dirt road .
We sped down the road and after 2 minutes stopped. He got off the bike and took his helmet off. He picked me up and set me on my feet. I took off the helmet and shook out my hair. He smiled.
"They should have given up by now. Ready to go back?" he asked. I nodded. He put my helmet back on and got on. I got on behind him and held on for dear life. Again. Motorcycles scare the crap out of me.
He zoomed back down the road at, I was guessing, about 80 miles an hour. When we got back to the bonfire he slowed to a stop and stood up, he helped me off and pushed the bike in the shed again. I took off my helmet and handed it to him. He put it, with his, in the shed. We walked back over to the bonfire, which actually glowed in the night.
Which it was now, the stars shined brightly above us. He sat down on the stump and I sat on his lap voluntarily.
He smiled. I watched as our parents exchanged smiles. I felt my dress dripping water onto Jake, even though he wouldn't notice, he was soaked too.
We all sat and watched the flames for who knows how long. I eventually started drifting in and out of consciousness.
All I know is that my head eventually ended up on Jacob's shoulder. I saw the others leave. Caroline, Emily, The rest of the Pack. Except mom, Billy ,Jake and me.
Mom and Billy took car of the food and stuff while me and Jake watched the fire, well technically I didn't, I was half asleep, and Jake he might have been looking at me, I'm not sure.
When they finished they spoke to each other in whispers and slowly backed away from us.
Jake shifted a little and I lifted my head. "Hey" I mumbled.
"Hey" he laughed little. "Ready for me to take you back to your house?' he asked.
I nodded. He stood up and carried me to my doorstep. I wonder where Billy and my mom are hiding….
"Here, stand up for just a second" he said and gently set me on my feet, not letting go of me completely because I might fall over.
I looked up into his eyes, wondering why he wanted me to stand up.
He bent his head down to my face and…….
