All of a sudden I was wakening back up from an uneasy sleep, and looking around my room I noticed it was no longer covered in unfriendly shadows but instead dull streaks of gray sunlight seeping through the blinds. Rubbing my eyes and stretching my legs I looked at the alarm clock sitting on my nightstand which read eight O'clock. I still felt a bit tired but there was no way I was going to be able to fall back asleep so I decided to go ahead and start my day by checking my email to see if Jenna had messaged me at all. I grabbed my laptop from the floor and set it on my lap opening it and blinking at the bright light laminating from the screen. My slender fingers tapped quickly on the keyboard, anxious to read anything from my friend.

I logged on to my email account and internally jumped with glee when I saw an unread message waiting for me. I read the message slowly taking in every word.

Ashley, It's only be a few days since you've left and already Ohio seems pretty empty without you, in other words I freaking miss you like crazy and I'm already counting the days till you're return! I'm sure your nowhere near as bored as I am considering you're an a entirely new place. I've heard Forks is a pretty rainy place though? But it looks beautiful I've seen pictures before of the area, looks good for long walks and hiking also. Maybe you can go hiking sometime with Bella. Anyways I hope you've settled in okay at Bella's house and that maybe you've already met some new people to hang out with. Don't forget to take lots of pictures! Love you lots :)

A big grin spread out over my face Jenna had to be the best friend I've ever had, maybe it was because she was in a way everything I wasn't. I guess that's why where so close though, we balance each other out.

I paused thinking of what to say back to her, so much had already happened but I didn't want to say too much like the incident with the guy in the bathroom than she would just freak out and tell my mom who would also freak out. And I didn't really want to say anything about the weird connection I felt between me and Jacob that would just seem creepy. So instead I just typed a few sentences letting her know I was fine and having a good time so far.

Jenna, I miss you a lot as well no one I could ever meet would ever replace you! But the only person I've met so far is a really good friend of Bella's, his name is Jacob and let me just say he's pretty cute and really nice also. Nothing has really happened though but this place is breath taking the forest go on for miles all around here everything is just so green and lush believe me I will be taking tons of pictures of my time here. Only downside is I've only been here two days and all its done is rain off and on, good thing I have rain boots and stuff looks like I'll be wearing them all the time! And I'll be sure to get a few good hiking trips in. Love you more!

I sent the message than taped on the keyboard trying to think of something to do to kill more time before I took a shower. Being the weird person I am I started to see what dirt I could dig up about the area or what I was really most interested in, crimes. I knew I could just ask Charlie since he was a police officer but I didn't want to come off as weird or some person who took delight in violence. So I just kept my strange interest to myself and on my computer.

I looked at some articles for a little bit but this town's crime was about as non-existent as snow on a hot summer's day, except for a serious shooting and just drunk driving or fights. I was about to just give up and close my laptop when I saw a title of a page that caught my eye.

It was titled "Wolf Sightings" I instantly clicked on it letting my eager mind suck in all the details like a greedy child who wants more candy. All the events I had read where recent from the people who had reported while in the woods surrounding the area had spotted extremely large wolves and they were suspected for the killings of hunters and other innocents. My mouth was formed in a tight line as I read on into the section of how the bodies looked when found, and I wasn't sure why but something just didn't settle with me right about how they were killed. I mean I wasn't some expert on wolf behavior or their eating habits but I felt in less a wolf was hurt, defending its self or it was extremely hungry than it wouldn't have a reason to be killing these people. I felt as if whatever was killing these people almost sounded human? But what human shredded up its prey with sharp fangs? Vampires?

I rolled my eyes at my stupid thought than shut my computer off and walked into the bathroom setting my clothes for the day on the bathroom counter. I set the handle all the way to almost a burning hot temperature and I waited till the room began to fill with steam than stripped out of my pajamas. Stepping into the spray of burning water I let out a sign as my worries silently went down the drain, my muscles relaxed as I washed my hair and face. Even when I was done washing up I stood there with my eyes closed, the sound of the water began to fade out, and I started to feel light headed almost like I was weightless. My heart beat slowed it was if I was in a trance, suddenly a cold yet soothing voice filled my ears.

"Ashley"

It almost sounded like the person was right next to me.

"Remember who I am, Remember the truth not the lies you were told"

"What Truth?" I said in my head.

"You will see soon enough, but you must know it before I show myself"

I frowned, deeply confused and frightened.

"I don't understand" I answered back.

Without warning an image of a boy being bitten into savagely on the neck flashed into the vision of my closed eyes, and then came the sound of agonized screaming rang in my ears.

I sucked in air violently and felt my back painfully come into contact with the shower wall.

"Damn it"

I grunted out in pain and look around nervously half expecting someone to rip open the shower curtain and murder me. Suddenly I realized the water was freezing and felt like ice beating down on me. Quickly I turned off the water and started shivering, teeth chattering together. I must have falling asleep or something, saying this to myself as a way to try and come up with an explanation to what had just happened. Thinking it only a stupid nightmare from reading to many horror books I wrapped a warm fuzzy towel around my freezing body and dried off.

After dressing into a pair of faded blue jeans and a black sweatshirt I walked downstairs hoping to be greeted by Bella with a plan of something interesting to do today, but instead was welcomed to an empty kitchen and smells of a late breakfast. I frowned than headed back upstairs to see if Bella was in her room. I knocked on her door and waited for a reply but got only silence, so I opened the door and peeked inside and surprise no Bella. Huffing and closing her door I ran back into the kitchen and saw a note lying on the counter, it read:

Ashley,

I'm sorry for leaving you alone on your second day here, but there were some things I needed to take care of today. I won't be gone all day though and I promise when I get back we can do something. If you need anything just call Charlie or me.

I crumpled up the note more than a little pissed that she would just leave me and not even say what she was doing. Sighing I threw the note in the trashcan and sat myself down in a chair next to the kitchen window. It wasn't raining but, the sky still held a dull look to it with just as many grey clouds as yesterday. I contemplated going for a walk through the woods a little ways behind Bella's house and played with the idea for a bit before finally deciding it was a dumb idea since the woods where so big and me being my stupid self would end up getting lost and causing trouble for Bella and her dad. Groaning in boredom I thumbed my head against the table when a heard a loud knock at the front door and instantly perked up and nearly ran to the door but stopped myself and remembered this wasn't my place and anyone could be behind the door. So I played the waiting game to wait for them to just leave. They knocked a few more times as I just sat there ignoring it, until they stopped knocking.

"Took them long enough to leave" I muttered aloud.

Then there was a sharp knock on the window behind me causing me to scream and nearly fall out of my chair in surprise. Hand over my erratic heart I turned around quickly and felt my heart speed up even more when I saw a shirtless Jacob standing there smiling at me.

Side note: Okay guys sorry I haven't posted a new chapter in a billion years, I know this isn't that long and most likely not that interesting but I wanted to post something just so you guys didn't think I had abandoned the fanfic which I haven't!
