Triumph coursed through my cold body as I jerked on some skin tight black pants, a skull tank top that showed just a wee bit of booby-crack, my converse high-tops, and my leather jacket. I ran my fingers through my rebellious black spikes, causing them to stick out even more. Though, it gave me a chilling edge. I tapped my foot impatiently as Bella clumsily walked down the stairs. She was wearing jeans, a long sleeved, green t-shirt, and some tennis shoes.I tossed her jacket at her and she pulled it on.

We climbed onto Barbara, and I drove straight to the beach. We arrived fashionably late. There were about twenty or so people already here. Most were standing around gossiping, but a few were playing in the surf.

"Bella!" I looked up to find an average, blonde, teenage boy jog up to us. I left my helmet beside Bella's on the seat and eyed the boy. He looked like an epic kiss-up.

"Hey, Mike." Bella mumbled, discontented. She's been through so many moods, lately, I'm starting to wonder if she's secretly bipolar, or something. His bright smile deteriorated slightly, but it popped back up even brighter than before, if that was possible.

"I'm glad you could make it! Is this your cousin?" he asked looking at me. I cocked a brow at him and smirked dangerously.

"Yeah, I'm Liz. Call me anything else I'll castrate you." I growled venomously. The guy annoyed me in Bella's stories, he was ten times more annoying in real life.

"Uh, nice to meet you. I'm-" he stuttered slightly shocked, I cut him off.

"A little to close to my cousin and I. Scat, bitch." I barked at him smirking. His eyes widened and he left with a hasty comment on helping some girl, Jennifer, or something. Bella gave me a disapproving look, "What?"

"Really? Act with some decorum for once, Elizabeth." she scolded me half-heartedly. It was something, at least. I scoffed and made my way to the bonfire. She followed me, and took a seat beside me on one of the dead logs. The others were more wary of me after Mike. The party was boring, seeing as hardly anyone talked to Bella and I. I guess that's my fault. Though, Bella didn't seem to mind.

"Hey, Bella." Angela greeted us, the one person who had enough guts to socialize with us, and turned out to be the shyest, sweetest girls at Bella's school. I liked her.

"Hi, Angela." Bella managed to smile without grimacing. Angela didn't talk much, she was quiet like that. Not that I minded, even if they did talk I would have ignored them. I was to busy eyeing the forest where I knew Vicky was watching. I was so engrossed in glaring at the hidden vampire that I didn't notice the huge pack of boys, shirtless with only cut off jeans, wander onto the beach. But they sure as hell noticed me.

This is where the party gets interesting. Because, by this time, the sun is almost ready to start setting, half of the teenagers are gone, leaving only about eight, including Bella and myself. I jerked my eyes away from Victoria to see Sam glaring at me visciously. I smirked, he couldn't do anything about me being on this beach, because a; there are human witnesses, and b; he can't touch me period. I returned to glaring at Vicky.

It didn't take long for the rest of the Forks' teenagers to leave. That's when they approached me. I paid them no mind as I kept an eye on Vicky.

"What are you doing here?" Leader Man growled.

"Watching Victoria, she's kind of pesky, you know. She's that red headed vamp." I replied in my I-don't-give-a-flying-fuck voice.

"We will handle the leech, you need to leave." he growled, not caring. I snorted.

"What are you going to do about it? You can't touch me, bitch." I smirked as one of the boys started shaking. Leader Man gave Angry Boy a glare, the boy left on cue to calm down.

"You are more trouble than we need at the moment. You need to leave." he said, turning back to me. I shook my head, and turned to Bella who had been silent for the whole encounter.

"What do you think, Izzy?" I asked her, "The big bad wolves want us to leave, but they can't touch us. So what do you want to do?" she knew I was testing her, expecting her to do something out of ordinary. I was literally telling her grow a pair, or you're walking home.

"I..." she looked away from my gaze. I turned back to see Leader Man watching Vicky out of the corner of his eye.

"She won't try, I've already given her a warning, Wolf-boy." I smirked at the hidden vampire. My grin widened when I heard her faint hiss.

"I'm tired, Liz, let's just go home, cal it a night." Bella spoke up finally. I frowned, I had forgotten Bella still had human needs. I nodded and the pack followed us to my bike. We climbed on and I hightailed it home. I could already tell Bella was about to pass out from mental and physical exhaustion. I parked in the driveway and hauled Izzy off of the bike.

"Alright, come on. Use your legs, Iz!" I grunted as she suddenly slumped. She started to cry, "Oh! No, you don't not now! Not after all that hard work, Izzy!" I moaned as I collapsed beside her.

"I-I'm sorry, L-Liz." she hiccuped. I sighed, Charlie was still at work. I picked her up, and tossed her over my shoulder like a sack of potatoes. I carried her into the house, then sped up and dumped her on her bed gently. She had fallen asleep. I sighed as I stripped her down to her undergarments and pulled a baggy tee and a pair of shorts on her before I changed into my 'sleeping garments' as well.

I collapsed on the air mattress. I guess we're back to square one, again.

So sorry that this update is so late! I will be updating more as much as I can, I want to get out of New Moon and into Eclipse because we will be following Liz away from Forks! Please review!
