I leaned against my new tomato red Ferrari. I sighed, my sign filled with happiness.

But there was one person I really wanted to see.

Bella.

I wondered how she was doing. Maybe I could visit her sometime . . .

Wait! A snap decision! I will go see her! Right now!

"Screw the licence." I muttered as I jumped into my car.

I started up the engine. It purred beautifully, and I buckled up, just in case. I put the car into reverse–I had seen it done many, many times–and I backed out of the driveway perfectly. I turned the wheel, and I was on the right side of the road, and all good to go.

I pressed on the gas petal, and I zoomed forward. I kept control of the car, and I hoped to god that I would survive to see another day. I knew that it was a day's drive to Forks; we had decided that we would stay closer to home then normal, considering that Bella thought we were going half way across the world. I new my gas tank was full, but I still hoped that I would make it there on one tank of gas.

I rolled down the window, and I hoped that Emmett had at least put my favorite CD in the car.

He had. I blasted my music as I went at full speed down the highway.

I drove, and drove, and drove. Surprisingly, I was doing really, really well. I hadn't hit anybody yet, and I also hadn't gone onto the wrong side of the road. Though, I had ran over a poor little rabbit.

I knew I only had to drive for a few more hours. Just a few.

* * *

I finally pulled into Forks three longs hours later. I slowly parked about five houses away from what Edward had told me was Bella's house. I turned off my car, and I completely just shut down. I passed out with a matter of minutes.

* * *

I woke up to the sound of howling. I gasped, and my head snapped up. I didn't know where that was coming from, but I had a feeling it was bad. I turned my car on again, and I drove down the street. It seemed that Bella wasn't home.

I did an illegal u-turn, and I went back the way I came. I stuck my tongue out in concentration as I followed the winding roads out of Forks. Maybe she was in La Push. If she was, I would be lucky to even survive; none of the Cullens were allowed on the res..

I sped down an empty road, hoping that no one would see me sneaking into La Push.

Suddenly, we engine just, quit! I was slowing down at such a rapid pace, that the engine just made a weird wwwwwwwwhhhhhhhhhhheeeeeeeeerrrrrrrrrr sound. I cried out in frustration, and I took the keys out of the ignition. I jumped out, and slammed the door. I then locked my key, and started up that stupid gravel road.

Then, I heard screaming. I listened carefully, and I also heard ripping. I bolted forward, wondering what the heck was going on.

As I reached the horizon, I saw a massive grey thing launching its self forward at someone. I kept running, kicking off my shoes. The rocks dug into my feet, by I didn't care. I bolted forward even farther, until I could see everything clearly.

There was two giant wolf like creatures attacking each other. There was a brunette haired girl on one side of the road, and three La Push boys on the other. The wolves bolted into the forest, and one of the boys kicked off his shoes, and ran after them.

"Bella!" I screamed. I knew exactly who the girl was. It was Bella Swan.

The girl looked at me, wide eyed. I outstretched my arms, wanting to embrace her. Her eyes filled with hysterical tears as I raced toward her.

Something suddenly tackled me, and I was pinned on the ground, my hands tightened behind my back. My face was pressed into the dirt, and I huffed. I tried to wiggle free, but my hands didn't seem to want to move. Something was holding them behind my back.

"So," a voice hissed in my ear. "Think you can get Bella, eh bloodsucker?"

Bloodsucker? What the heck? "I'm human, you idiot!" I muffled.

The person on me took a giant inhale of air.

Bella was screaming even more now. "Get off of her! Your going to crush her! She's only thirteen!"

"Fourteen," I corrected as the person on my back got off, and released my hands. I got up, and brushed the dirt off my designer jeans. "Awe man. Alice is going to kill me."

I was suddenly attacked again. This time, whoever it was, was actually hugging me. "Uh . . ."

Bella was blubbering. "Oh Leslie! I'm so happy to see you! Where's Carlisle? I'm sure he's the one who drove you."

"Uh, no. I drove myself." I smiled. "I'm officially fourteen, so I can get my learners."

Bella's wet eyes went even wider. "You don't have your learners?! Are you insane?"

"I get it from my brothers," I laughed.

The two La Push boys that were left stared at me. "What are you here for, bloodsucker kid?" one of them asked me.

"For the last time: I'm human!" I cried out. "And I'm here because I have delayed my visit."

"Edward's going to kill you, isn't he?" Bella asked me.

"Oh yeah." I agreed. "May as well make my freedom last."

One boy snorted. "I'm surprised they haven't killed you already, kid."

I rolled my eyes. "My family has a lot of control, thank you."

The boy muttered under his breath, and then he said louder, "You know, your technically Cullen. You better get the hell of our land."

My eyes widened in fake sarcasm. "I hadn't taken that into account," I said, acid burning my tongue. "No duh. I already figured it out."

"Please, guys, let her stay." Bella pleaded. "Please,"

The boys shook there heads. "You heard Sam earlier. We're going to Emily's, without the kid." one of them said.

"Actually, bring her with," a sudden voice said. "Maybe we can get some information out of her."

I turned my head, and there, walking out of the trees, was another La Push boy, though he was taller, and more muscular then the others. I stared for a few seconds, and then I half hid behind Bella; that guy scared the crap out of me.

"So, where's Jake and Paul?" one of the boys asked.

"Grabbing clothes, Embry." the boy/man replied. I wasn't sure what he was.

Bella motioned towards her truck. "We can take my truck."

I smiled. "I call shot gun!" I screamed as I ran towards the truck.

One of the boys beat me there. I pouted, and then I looked around. "Sweet. I get to hide in the–"

The other boy grabbed me up, and set me in the back of the truck. I grasped onto the edge as we lurked forward. I kept gazing at the boy that was standing beside me. He was at least as tall as Edward, but not a beefy as Emmett. His black hair was cropped short. He gazed back at me, brown meeting green, and I glanced away quickly.

"You gotta a name, kid?" the boy suddenly asked.

"Leslie," I replied smoothly. "You?"

"Jared," he replied, with ease.

We went over a bump, and I gasped as my hand slipped. I flipped over backwards, and I felt someone grab my pant leg.

"Girl over board!" Jared called. "Embry, stop the truck!"

I was seeing everything upside down. The trees flew past me in a blur, and I could hear the gravel crunching under the truck tires. Jared yanked on my pant leg, and I came flying back to him. He caught me in his arms, and he set me down, keeping a firm hand on my shoulder.

"Thanks," I said breathlessly.

Jared just nodded.

We parked in front of a nice looking house. It was actually really cute; the flowers made it homy looking. The other boy, I'm guessing his name was Embry, and Bella got out of the truck. Jared jumped over the side. I took a more of a fun approach, since Carlisle wasn't here to stop me.

I grabbed onto the edge, and I flipped myself forward. I landed on my feet no problem, and Bella laughed. "That's Leslie for you," she said to Jared, who was giving me a dirty look.

I bounced to her side, and we both entered the house. The smell of muffins hit me like a semi. I sniffed the air, and I followed my nose to the kitchen. There, there was a beautiful woman, popping muffins out of a muffin tray. She had beautiful skin, and her black hair was as black as pitch. I smiled.

"Food!" I cried happily. "Man, I'm starving!"

My stomach grumbled in agreement.

The woman looked at me as Embry and Jared came in. "Sorry about her; she's the vamp's kid."

I crossed my arms. "Whatever," I grumbled.

The woman smiled at me, and offered me a muffin. "You must be hungry," she said.

"I'm dying!" I wailed, and I grabbed the muffin, and bit into it. It was tender, and delicious. It was blueberries, but there was another type of berry mixed in.

Then, that's when the scary guy came in. He strode over to where the woman was, and kissed her tenderly. I covered my eyes with my free hand.

Someone laughed. "Minor here, Sam." Jared's voice guffawed.

"Whatever. She's not looking," the boy/man's voice replied.

They must have kissed again, because someone made gagging sounds.

Suddenly, my pocket vibrated. My cell phone. I uncovered my eyes, and stared at my leg. "I'm dead." I muttered.

I took the phone out of my pocket, and I flipped it open. "Hello?" I asked, my voice tiny.

"What the hell, Leslie!" Emmett's voice roared. "Where are you?!"

I closed my eyes, and I signed. "Em, I'm fine."

"Where are you?!" he demanded.

"I'm outta here. 'Bye." I cried.

I snapped the phone shut so fast, I dropped it. It clattered to the ground.


Thanks for reading, again. Sorry about the wait. :p
