Chapter Nine-Love at first…was it sight or bite?
Now, Diane had never really believed in love at first sight. She thought that it was just for little girls' fantasies and star-struck poets' dreams. How could she not, especially since nothing like that had ever happened to anyone that she had ever known…minus Sam and Emily? It didn't count if they were a werewolf.
Now, exactly one month after her birthday, Bella had hers. Bella did not know about the Wolves, all she knew was that Diane knew about the Cullens, so when Diane was invited to Bella's b-day party, Bella herself didn't know why. The real reason why the guys even allowed her to go was because they knew that Bella would be much safer with a… 'pack' member there, and Diane was the only one that Bella was really friends with.
However, not all plans go as planned. Here's the summery: Bella got a paper cut when she started opening presents, and Jasper (not being as strong as the others) attacked her. Edward sent Bella flying backward while trying to protect her, which was a really stupid move, since she is human. Bella sustained even more cuts from the shattered glass bowls that she hit, and then started bleeding even more. Emmett, Carlisle, and Diane were holding him back and towed him out of the house. Jasper ran off and Diane had to go home after making sure that Bella was alright.
He did what? Sam mentally yelled as soon as she flew over the Quileute boundary. She was in the form of a hawk.
He almost attacked her, but we kept him from doing any…lasting damage to Bella.
Lasting in what way? Paul inquired.
Edward accidentally threw her into a bunch of glass bowls when he was trying to keep his brother off of her.
That is it! You are not going over there again!
Sam, I have to. Jasper is going through a really tough time and he actually only listens to me about things of that nature.
I don't care if he's suicidal over his dead blood-suckin' girlfriend, you saw how dangerous vampires are, and I am not having you putting yourself in harm's way. Sam was such a nanny sometimes, and it was wearing on Diane's nerves.
Well, I am not in harm's way. I may not be a vampire or a werewolf, but I have more power over Jasper than even Carlisle does.
Oh, great!
Paul don't start with me.
So now you guys are together? Diane, he's a leech, a parasite.
We are not together, he just listens to me. And you don't know any of them well enough to be calling them leeches. They are the most kind, thoughtful, civilized people I have ever met. But I don't suppose you would know anything about that!
Diane cut the connection and flew towards the house. Emily was at work and the guys were way in the mountains.
Never again will I be questioned about the people I love.
She was going to run away.
