Bella's Point of View
When I came in I was surprised to see Charlie at the door waiting for me. A serious look on his face.
"Billy mentioned this afternoon, that Jacob was taking you friend Alida to the dance," He said causally.
I stared at him curiously. "Yeah he is,"
Charlie now nodded towards the door. "I'm guessing Sam is your date?"
My eyes widened, my jaw popping open. "Um well... I haven't asked him... And he didn't ask me..."
Charlie nodded carefully. "But you are seeing him?"
I wasn't expecting this interrogation tonight, nor did I ever want to...
"Not quite..." I sighed shaking my head. "At least not yet."
"Are you being... Careful,"
My face flushed. "Yeah dad," I muttered, avoiding his gaze. "I mean we haven't done anything..."
Charlie face was now red, but he stayed serious. "Ok, but seriously Bells, I don't know if he is the best option... I'm just... Worried about your safety... This place has a lot more to it then you think."
What was the suppose to mean?
"Sam isn't a bad guy dad, I've talked to him for a while now... He is a great person." I defended, shaking my head.
"I know Bells, he is a good guy, I've met him as well... Just... Please be careful." He said turning back towards the couch. "I just don't want you to get hurt."
I don't know why I would possibly get hurt from Sam, all of this was confusing, but for a moment I shrugged it off, and just nodded to Charlie. "Alright dad," I responded, and started my way up the stairs.
As I entered my room, I threw my shoes off, heading over to my bed to lay down.
A few howls sounded throughout the night, startling me by how close they sounded.
I shifted up, glancing out the window, but I didn't see a thing. Laying back down I felt my mind begin to wonder to Sam.
I missed him... I wished that he could be here beside me. It would just make everything feel so much better.
It was becoming clear that Sam was truly different then anyone else... I had known that from the start, but the pieces just wasn't adding up.
What was I missing.
When I was able to fall asleep, for the first time since moving here I had a dream.
Everything was so vibrant and clear, in the background I could hear the loud crashing of water hitting the rocks.
I was standing at the very edge of the falls, I felt no fear. From behind me, I heard a voice call out to me.
"Bella, get over here before you get hurt." I recognized the voice before I even turned around.
Sam was standing far away from me, a warm smile on his face as he held out his hand.
I went to take a seat towards him, but in the next moment Leah dashed out of the woods, glaring coldly at us.
Her body began to tremble as she locked her gaze on me.
I froze in place, terrified.
"Leah don't, get away from her." Sam hollered glaring towards Leah, but it seemed like she didn't hear a thing.
She began to run towards me, a growl sounded from her, and with just a second of time she changed right before my eyes into a huge wolf.
My heart was going a million beats a second as this wolf now charged me, and jumped throwing us both of the edge of the falls.
With a gasp I jostled myself awake.
Taking a breath of relief I glanced around my room, my eyes landing on the clock. 6:00 am.
There was no way I would be going back to sleep after all that.
I kept myself busy, taking a shower, taking my time to pick out an outfit, I was even able to sit down with Charlie for breakfast.
"Your up early," He noted, taking a sip from his coffee cup.
I shrugged, taking a bit taking a bit from the eggs I had made. "I guess," I nodded. "After being late for school yesterday I made sure to get up today."
Charlie nodded as well, seeming to take my words, but with a knock at the door he rose from his seat.
As soon as he opened the door, I listened closely.
"Good morning Charlie," Sam's voice sounded, bringing chills down my spine.
Charlie cleared his throat before responding. "I'm guessing your here for Bella,"
With that I quickly got up, only tripping once as I raced into the room.
"Yes, I just wanted to see if she would like a ride to school." Sam smiled now turning his direction.
"Yeah of course." I said eagerly.
Charlie frowned glancing between us. "You know I can drive you to school Bells."
"That's ok dad, you have to be getting to work soon don't you?"
"Yeah I guess," Charlie said with a sigh. "Be careful, make sure your home at a decent time tonight, Billy and Jacob are coming over for dinner."
At this, I had the urge to groan in defeat. My time with Sam would be cut short.
As soon as Charlie left, I turned to Sam with disappointment. "I'm sorry, it looks like we won't have much time to talk.."
"Actually I had other plans for today," Sam shrugged, capturing me in his arms. "If you don't have too much of a problem missing school today."
I smiled in response. "I don't mind at all."
Surely Charlie wouldn't be opposed to me skipping a day... It was just a day anyway.
"Great, because today is one big day." He spoke his expression seemed anxious. "Just remember with everything I tell you today, that you have every right to talk away."
"That's not going to happen."
Sam shrugged lightly, leaning down to press his lips to my forehead. "I hope not," He muttered quietly.
In that moment I lost my breath, feeling my heart race.
We stood like this for a while, but soon he had me out the door, and into his truck. We just went next door to his house.
I was a little nervous about being in his house, he hadn't really spoken of his parents... Or any family so I wasn't sure what would be waiting for me there.
As we entered I was hit with the feeling of warmth and protection.
"So... Your parents?" I wondered quietly, glancing back towards him as he closed the door.
"My mother Allison stops by once in a while to check in with me, right now she's at a little beach cabin over at first beach." He explained, wrapping his arm around me, walking me through the house. "As for my father, I haven't really seen him since I was five..."
Instantly I felt bad.
"I'm sorry for bringing that up."
He shook his head, not seeming to be bothered. "I don't mind talking about it, you have the right to know."
Sam walked me into what looked like a private study, gently he sat us down on a love seat, and retrieved a large old looking book.
"So, what do you know of the La Push Legends?" He wondered.
"Well Jacob did fill me in on a lot." I muttered, and instantly shivered as I recalled earlier of that nightmare I had.
I froze, things clicking on my mind between what Jacob told me, and my dream... Sam's big secret... It couldn't be.
"Sam's eyes seemed to go tense, his expression was tense. "Really, what exactly did he tell you?"
I gulped peaking at him. "He told me the story of the cold ones... Werewolves... A treaty..."
Sam sighed, closing his eyes for a moment, before breathing out. I felt a slight shudder down his body... Since to the way Leah had done in my dream.
Slowly I leaned closer to him, pecking his cheek. This seemed to instantly bring peace to him.
We stayed quiet for a long time before I answered.
"The legends are true, aren't they...?"
Sam watched my expression, giving me a slight nod.
"As crazy as it sounds... And I know it sounds crazy... It is Bella." He said gently.
I took a minute to completely process what he was saying, still my mind couldn't let something this impossible be the true.
"So... Does this legend apply to everyone here in La Push?"
He smiled slightly. "No, there aren't many of us, and even fewer who know that those legends aren't myths."
I took note of the word 'us'.
"So you... Are a werewolf..."
He nodded, slightly calmer. "Along with Jared and Paul,"
"So that is what united you guys?" I concluded, biting my lip.
Everything he had told me so far was beginning to piece together more clearly.
"Yeah, they did shortly after I did... But it's been a while..."
I nodded slowly, rubbing my face, trying to let myself believe, but it was hard to imagine any of that being true.
For what seemed like a long time, we held a silence between us until Sam spoke up.
"Would you like to see..." He said quietly.
My eyes widened. "You turn into a wolf?" Curiosity bit at me. "Yes,"
"Follow me," he said and gently stood up, leading me out to his backyard.
He paused as we reached the trees. "Please, stay right here," he said and quickly jogged farther back into the woods.
I stood, watching him closely, butterflies bounced around in my stomach.
He stopped a few yards away, his body began to tremble, and right before my eyes I watched as the man I love turned into a giant wolf.
I gasped in utter surprise. There was no way I could deny anything now.
Sam was a werewolf.
Slowly I walked over to him in wonder. He didn't move an inch, until I was directly in front of me.
He stood tall, with waves of black fur, he looked so strong. As I stated into his eyes I felt no fear, just the same warmth I felt every time I saw Sam.
My hand went out to him, and lightly I strokes his face.
His eyes closed in response, a low noise rising in his chest.
I chuckled, moving closer to him.
This was amazing... It was incredible... I was in love with a werewolf...
