Chapter 10
Bella POV

Today is Saturday, Jake reschedule our date thing for today so that we could do a picnic thing. Also that Seth could join us as well.

My house is now the main house for their gatherings because Seth besides Sam has imprinted and Seth can't bear to be away from Piper, and Piper actually is starting this fit throwing thing when Seth isn't around. It sucks, because she is now discovering how strong she is.

And Seth never wanting her to be unhappy gives in, spoiling her.

I really hate this imprinting, I feel like Seth putting his nose where is doesn't belong. For an example when I went to put Piper in the corner for a time out because she colored on the wall. Seth ignored me and took her outside to play. I could have murdered him; I didn't though I did kick him out for the day.

Eleven AM, and I am loading the twins in the car. We are driving down to La Push and having a picnic at the beach.

They are very excited, considering we lived in the heart of Arizona; they have never seen a beach and played in ocean water.

And with this though in mind, it reminds me of when my dad, mom and me would come and visit Billy and go on fishing trips. This was before my parents decided to move to Phoenix, I can't even remember why we decided to move there in the first place.

Fifteen minute drive and we arrive at Billy's place. It's a small red house. But it is big enough for the three kids he had. The two oldest twin girls are off having their own life. You can see the garage hiding behind some bushes to the right side of the house.

I get out, seeing Seth nearly burst out of the house, with an irritated Jacob following behind him; well he looked irritable till he saw me. This made me a little wry I really didn't need another guy falling for me.

"Hey guys" I call out.

"Hey" they reply together.

I get Piper out first only because she is close to tearing the seat belts to shreds. She gets out and jumps into Seth's arms. It makes me upset to think my daughter will never experience the dating world never have that first break up. I won't be able to sit on her bed eating ice cream with her. But then I know she will always be safe. That and I am sure they will fight and I will have the ice cream then.

Unbuckling Chris and letting him out, he stays by me, my little protector I like to call him.

Jake grabs a basket off the stair leading into his house and we walk towards the beach.

Seth and Piper are ahead of Jake, Chris and me. She keeps asking him questions, such as: what's it is like to be a wolf? Does it hurt to phase? What's your favorite color?

Where and earth has she hear the word phase before? I wonder to myself.

Chris is getting fascinated with Jacob, not by asking questions, but he is just staring, like studying his movements. And then he would mimic him. I found it adorable, and chuckled.

We arrive at the beach and Piper runs straight for the water, I went to go after her but Seth beat me too it.

I feel pain fill my heart, that's my job. I am her mother. But I don't say anything; he is closer if we want to get technical. Jake wraps his arm around me; my face must read with pain. I don't push him away its nice being comforted, this is about my babies.

It's not too long though before Chris gets tired of how close Jake is and pushes him away, I giggle so does Jake.
I then chase Chris out to the water where Seth and Piper are. Then out of now where Jake runs past me and jumps over Chris.

Chris doesn't scream, most likely expecting it, but he still watches with amazement.

We play in the water what feels like ages. But we get hungry so we get out and dig into the basket Jake has brought for us.

He had put stuff in there that make sandwiches, and some chips sodas.

Piper ate mostly chips, and Chris copied Jake on what he was eating, which was a turkey sandwich and a bag of Doritos. I chuckle thinking well I know who his role model is going to be.

"No mama, Edward" Pipers says then pops another chip in her mouth.

I froze, what did she just say?

"Oh yeah, I can't wait for that, how much longer?" Chris responds.

Jake looks at Seth, then they look at me.

"What, I'm allowed a personal life" They so didn't need to know I have the serious hots for a vampire. Chris and Piper giggle, great, just great. I smile at them, please keep this to yourselves.

They nod their head in agreement.

After we got done eating back out to the water, well I didn't go because I am deep in thought, my kids want Edward.

Then I hear a throat clearing. I look up to see Jake standing in the suns way.

"Bella can we talk?" He asks unsure of himself.

"Yeah Jake, you are more than welcome to talk to me without asking." I smile that friendly smile that seems to always make people more comfortable.

"Well, are you seeing someone at school?" Gesh he sounds upset. He sits next to me.

"No, I am not why?" I try to smother a giggle.

"Well, I was wondering if next weekend if we could go on a date just me and you?" He asks.

"I don't know Jake." I answer honestly.

"What don't you know?" He asks upset. Great, why on earth do I have to attract guys that get upset with rejection? Well, I really didn't reject Edward, I should just go out with Jake, have dinner see a movie. I mean what's the worst that could happen?

"Yeah Jake that sound ok, just as friends' right?" Trying to make it clear that I just want to be friends.

He face reads of excitement I think it doesn't matter what we go as.

"Yeah that's fine." He gets back up and back to the water.
