The Man Who Can't Be Moved
...I'm thinking maybe you'll come back here
To the place that we'd meet
And you'll see me waiting for you
On The corner of the street
So I'm not moving,
I'm not moving,
I'm not moving,
I'm not moving.
Seth looked like he was going to trip over himself as he ran to the tree.
"You can slow down some," Jacob commented in an easy tone, leaning against the trunk. It wasn't as wet now, even though it'd only been a couple of hours since Leah came. As soon as she left, the rain had lightened up. There'd even been a rainbow. Now it was cloudy, but the lack of constant downpour was a relief.
Seth was absolutely exuberant as he bounced on the balls of his feet, about a meter ahead of Jacob.
"Yes?"
"We know where Bella is," Seth said in a rush. "At least, we know where she's going to be. Here. She's coming back. Today. Tomorrow? Tomorrow. Be here tomorrow."
"Seth. Slow down. What are you talking about?" Jake said, trying not to let his excitement get the best of him.
"Mai. The blonde. With the freckles. Remember?" Of course Jacob remembered her. She was the only one who had cared. "She's from Rio de Janeiro. Works at the airport. And an Edward Cullen booked a flight this morning to Seattle, Washington with a transfer in Houston, Texas this morning for himself and a Bella Cullen."
Jacob sat up straighter, swinging his legs off the log in front of him so he could look Seth straight in the eye. "You mean we've got her? We know where she is?"
Seth nodded. "And as soon as she gets here, she'll know. There's no way she won't know you're here. You're a celebrity, Jake."
Jacob looked at him quizzically. "What?"
Seth's grin widened. "Everyone in La Push and Forks and it's even made papers in Seattle and Portland so they know who you are too and the tabloids are starting to pick up the story now. Soon you'll be known all over the country. Don't know who you are now, Jake?"
Jacob raised an eyebrow at the kid's expression- he looked like he was going to explode with excitement as he waited, jumping from foot to foot.
Finally, he actually did explode, bursting out with the answer: "You're Jacob Black, you're The Man Who Can't Be Moved!"
