We were at Jakes house in a matter of minutes. Well, Quil and I were. Jake arrived a minute after and Embry a minute after that.
"Slowpokes!" I cried. "We've been waiting here for you for like…hours!"
"Yeah, what took you guys so long?" Quil asked, grinning at me. I grinned back.
"Well, Bella called me, she's coming over too, and Embry's just slow." Jake explained and I gritted my teeth. Bella. Oh joy.
"Hey! I'm not slow! I just couldn't figure out which key it was." Embry cried and I laughed.
"Oh my gosh, oh my gosh, can I go and see Billy now, Jake? Please, please, please?!" I pleaded.
"Fine, fine." He said, and I jumped up, clapped my hands and he walked over and unlocked the door. He started walking inside and I ran up behind and started pushing him forward.
"Come on, Jake, walk faster! It's Billy that we're talking about here! I want to see him!" I cried as we reached the doorway to the living room.
"Is that Suze I hear, Jake?" A voice cried in the living room.
"MOVE JAKE!" I cried, pushing him out of the way. I went to run into the room but caught my foot on his and landed flat on my face next to Billy. "BILLY!" I cried, pushing myself up onto my knees and hugging him tightly.
"Suze?" He asked and I let go and grinned at him.
"The one and only!" I cried and he smiled back.
"But Suze, there are other Suze's in the world." Quil said behind me.
"Yeah, but I'm the coolest." I replied, smirking. I leaned over and kissed Billy on the cheek and he smiled.
"You've grown so much this last 3 weeks Suze! I remember when you were this big!" Billy said, looking at Jake and Quil and Embry and holding up his arm above his head, "And what happened to your hair?"
"Long story." I said, rolling my eyes. He reached over and patted my arm, then pulled his hand back quickly.
"Are you feeling okay? You're a bit warm." He said, looking concerned. He reached over and put his withered hand on my forehead.
"Of course, I'm fine. It's probably just because of the weather. 2 days of sun, has that ever happened before?" I teased, smiling. He shot Jake and the guys a weird glance then pulled his hand away.
"Come on then Suze, lets go to the garage." Embry said, pulling me up and flinging me over his shoulder. I bit his butt and he let go and squeaked, so I stuck my hands out and did a handstand.
"I don't need carrying, I'm not 5." I replied, then fell backwards and stood up straight. "So, to the garage!" I cried, pushing the guys out of the door. We walked for a minute…well they walked, I skipped.
"Gosh, someone's energetic today!" Quil said.
"Oh really? I didn't notice!" Embry said, sarcastically as we reached the garage. Jake went in first and pulled off his top (thank you, Lord!) and started working on his bike and Quil and Embry started chatting about something they saw on TV last week. I plonked myself down on the floor and started messing with one of Jakes spanners.
After 15 minutes, I sighed, stood up and walked over to the doorway then sat down there, watching the birds outside. I wonder if we'll have more days of sun like this. La push certainly looks different with the sun shining.
"Jake? Jake, you in there?" A girls voice cried. I gritted my teeth. Bella.
"Yeah, Bella! I'm in here! Come in!" Jake called back, wiping his hands on his jeans and turning around. I stood up and leant my shoulder on the side of the door, then rested my other hand on my hip. A small, brown haired girl came into view and I scowled. She was nothing special. Her big brown eyes stood out against her pale skin and she had a small smile on her face. Until she saw me anyway. Then she started looking sad and scared.
"Um…hello." Bella said when she was closer to me. Her voice was shaky and scared. Pathetic. I grunted and moved to the side, letting her in. "Jake!" She cried, practically throwing herself at him.
"Hey Bells!" Jake cried, happily. Why didn't I ever get a reaction like that? Oh yeah, he loves her. Maybe that's why I don't like her. Maybe I'm jealous. Or maybe it's the fact that she uses Jake like a toy, and when she gets bored of him, she runs off with her other man. I would never do that to him. If only he would see that...
"Hiya Bella!" Embry cried, grinning.
"Hi Bella!" Quil cried too. I rolled my eyes. So now Bella was friends with everyone? How come I wasn't told that?
"Bells, this is Suze. Suze, Bella." Jake said and Bella turned to me and smiled slightly and rubbed her arm. She didn't look me in the eyes.
"You have got to be joking…" I muttered, under my breath. When she finally looked in my eyes, I wiped the scowl from my face and put on a really sweet smile. "I've heard so much about you." I said, putting on my nice voice. It was sickening.
"I would like to say the same, but I've never heard of you, sorry…" She whispered and I glared at Jake.
"Hum. Nice to know."
"Is she your girlfriend, Jake?" She asked. Jake laughed like she had just told the funniest joke in the world. Is the idea of being with me that ridiculous? I winced and looked down for a second, and when I looked back up, Embry was giving me a concerned look and Quil was mouthing 'what's wrong?' I stuck up my middle finger at them.
"Suze? No way!" He cried, still laughing. He stopped when he saw the hurt look on my face.
"What the hell is it to you anyway? Why do you even care? You have that other one." I snapped and she winced. I couldn't help snapping at her. Jacob laughing really stung me.
"I-" she started but I interrupted.
"Don't say anything." I growled, "I saw the look in your eye when you asked. And when you were walking up. Admit it. You were jealous at even the thought of Jake being with someone else, coz then he wouldn't need you would he?" she looked down and sniffled.
"Suze! Stop it!" Jake roared, pulling Bella behind him.
"Why the hell should I?! I'm telling the truth! She's using you Jake and you haven't got the nerve to say anything to her about it!" I yelled back. I wasn't even in control of my mouth. My instincts were telling me to shut up, but my mouth was moving by its self.
"Can't you see that your upsetting Bella?! Don't ever talk about her that way." Jacob growled at me, taking a step forward. His eyes were filled with pure rage. I looked around to see Bella with tears running down her cheeks.
"So what if I'm upsetting Bella?! I don't care! I'm sticking up for you and your having a go at me over it?!"
"I don't need you to stand up for me, besides, there's nothing to stand up for. You keep accusing Bella of things, but I can tell you now, your miles worse." He snarled and I bit my tongue so stop myself from saying something to get me in an even worse mood. "You're always so needy and clingy, and you're such a bitch. Bella's done nothing to you." Jake started shaking.
"Jake, calm down." Embry said.
"She may have done nothing to me, but she's done a hell of a lot to you though, hasn't she?! And you do realised that you just described Bella there too, don't you?!" I cried, my mouth moving by its self again. It's times like these when I wish I had an off button. Bella burst into sobs behind us.
"Just shut up, Suze! Shut up!" Jake cried, taking a few steps forward so he was stood less than an inch away from me. "If you say another bad thing about Bella, Suze, I swear, I don't care if you're a girl, the last thing you ever see will be my fist ploughing into that face of yours." He whispered, and then turned. "We should've done what Sam said and stayed away from her." My eyes watered. He would give up our 16 year friendship, because of a stupid fight over a stupid girl? Quil and Embry stood up.
"Fine then, Jacob, you won't have to worry about that anymore." I said, a tear streaking down my cheek.
"And you call her mean Jake? She forgave us for everything and you just turn on her like that? She's been a good friend all along; maybe you should take some tips from her." Embry snapped, walking over to me, putting an arm around my shoulder and steering me out of the garage. Quil followed.
