The rain finally stopped after about a hour, so we walked up to return to the group. They all stared at me. I didn't like it and wanted to ran away again. Jacob just held my hand to ease my nerves. Carlisle eventually approached me.

"That was incredible! Why didn't you tell us you could do that?" He kept his voice down as to not cause more attention to me.

"I don't like to talk about it. People find out and then stop being careful. I also don't like people getting hurt. People always seem to get hurt around me when they know what I can do." I kept my eyes down the whole time I spoke, still clutching Jacob's hand.

"I wish I could do that! You could put my out of the job," he chuckled.

"I wouldn't bet on it." We laughed. I glanced at Edward, who seemed annoyed. "What's wrong with Edward?"

"He's in shock that even he didn't know you could do that. He's wondering how he missed it, and it's annoying him to no end."

"He might feel like it's good that I'm around now because of Bella's history with the ER."

"That, too."

Alice ran up. "Come on! We missed you guys! Billy's making an announcement! Well, wanting to. He's waiting on you two!" She grabbed my free hand and dragged me while Carlisle and Jacob (who lost my hand when Alice pulled me) followed. I could hear Carlisle asking Jacob questions about my healing power, like whether or not it hurt and other questions that sounded like they were meant for research.

We joined the group and Billy's eye lit up. "This will be quick, for I know some of you are tired and others want to have fun rather than listen to an old man talk," he glanced at Quil and Embry, who were goofing off. His glance silenced them instantly.

"I'm pleased to say the treaty has been reformed. No more boundaries, no more rules, but only for the Golden-Eyed ones. Just do us a favor. Continue to hunt outside Forks and La Push." He winked towards us. Everyone laughed.

"There's nothing around here, anyway!" Emmett retorted. Rosalie slapped his arm, which only caused more laughter.

Carlisle approached Billy. "We have found powerful allies in you all. I hope you will feel the same."

"We have, no doubt about it," Billy replied. They shook hands and the treaty was sealed once again.

Jacob leaned over towards me, "You know this is all because of you, right?"

"I doubt it," and I chuckled at the thought.

"I'm serious. Stop being so modest."

"I'm not being modest. I'm being honest. Billy and everyone would have come around eventually, especially after the newborn incident. Carlisle saved your tail, remember?"

"Nice choice of words."

"Seriously, though. It would've happened anyway. With or without me."

"At least admit you helped?" He was inches from my face, so close I could feel the warmth of his cheeks.

"Fine. Maybe I helped. Only a little."

"I can live with that." He kissed my forehead.

The rest of the night went on without a hitch.
