Chapter 10

I just felt so comfortable with Jacob. It was so easy to smile while we sat there talking, like breathing. So when I asked him about my mom it made me sad to think how I don't remember anything about her. Jacob did help me figure something out though. Turns out the dreams I had been having were actually not just regular dreams, they were memories.

"It's like you're the key to my secrets." I told him quietly.

My mood towards him had done a complete 180. Instead of feeling nervous and frustrated around him I now felt safe and calm.

"Do you think you could help me?" I asked.

"Help you?" he seemed confused.

"Help me remember everything. You, La Push, my mom…I want to remember it all. Its driving me crazy because it feels like the answers are at the tips of my fingers but I just can't grab them. So…. Can you help me?"

Jake smiled…. no, more like glowed.

"Brooke, I'd do anything for you"

His confession took me slightly aback, but deep down I felt the same towards him.

"Well," I said standing up, brushing the dirt off my jeans, "do you think you could give me a ride to the school so I could get my car? Kim dropped me off earlier."

Jacob

I don't remember Kim leaving school to drop off Brooke, but I let it go. I didn't want to cause any problems, especially not when we were finally back on good terms. I finally had my Brooke back.

On the way back we decided to stop by her dad's diner for some ice cream. By the time we got back to her house it was late and I had a pack meeting that I couldn't be late for. She, oddly enough, seemed like she had plans as well.

"Boyfriend?" I asked, anxious for her to say no, as we walked up to her door so we could say goodnight.

She smiled at me and laughed a bit, "No, I don't have a boyfriend."

My heart soared. "Well that's good." I was trying to hide the smile on my face but the warmth in my chest was just overwhelming.

"So do you have a girlfriend?" she asked as we reached her front door. I turned to look at her for a moment before pulling her in for a hug.

"No, I don't." I said into her ear.

She pulled back and smiled at me teasingly, "Well that's good."

Brooke wrapped her arm around my neck and pulled me down. When my lips touched hers, I felt the fireworks explode. She wrapped her other arm around my neck while I pulled her closer. I felt her body go rigid all of a sudden and she abruptly pulled away.

"Oh my god, I'm so sorry. I didn't mean to-"

I cut her off with another kiss.

"Don't be sorry." I smiled down at her and stroked the side of her face. My finger brushed over a couple of scratches that I hadn't noticed earlier. She brushed my hand away, taking it into hers, and leaned in to hug me. She tucked her chin right into my chest, just like it belonged there.

"Goodnight Jake." She mumbled into my chest.

"Goodnight Brooke." I softly replied, kissing the top of her head and smoothing down her golden brown hair.

Just then I heard a low and deep growl from off the side of the porch, followed by a short bark. Both Brooke and I jumped at the sound and looked over to see two yellow eyes staring at us through the underbrush. I hadn't told Brooke about the whole wolf thing yet so she was probably freaking out to see a massive wolf staring at her. My brothers really have the worst timing.

"Brooke-"

"Jake get back!" she cut me off, pushing me away from the railing with strength that I had no idea could come from her.

"Brooke what are you talking about? Go inside, it's not safe." I grabbed her shoulders and turned her around to face the door. I quickly turned and started running towards the wolf in the woods so I could figure out who it was and be able to kill them for scaring her later.

Brooke started running down the steps towards me, "Jake look out!"

I turned around to see Collin leaping towards me and I got ready to jump out of the way. But at the last minute I noticed if I moved he would hit Brooke so I turned to protect her.

Except she wasn't there.

Instead a white wolf soared over my head, tackling Colin down onto the ground and pinning him under her forceful paw, growling down into his face.
