Sorry the last chapter was so short.

I'll try to make this on longer

Oh yeah, thnx 4 the reviews. They made my day. I love seeing when someone likes my story!

Even if I didn't come up with the main idea (Disclaimer: It's Stephanie Meyer's)

But I am writing another book, that's why it takes so long to update.

Well anyway, I'll quit my babbling. And thus: on with the story...

WAIT! I forgot to mention that I'll try and add some twists in this chapter...no promises though. (I probably could have added this up above an no one would know...but that feels like cheating :( )


Chapter 11: Bon Fire

"Am I ever going to meet the pack?" I voiced my thoughts out loud.

"Actually, I was thinking we could go to the bon fire they're having tonight." Jake offered.

"That sounds great!' I exclaimed. "Wait, what about the murders?"

Jake laughed. "You heard Charlie, there hasn't been any in La Push."

"What if Edward crosses the border?"

"He'll have broken the treaty and we can kill him." Jake explained.

"Didn't you already kind of break the treaty when you phased at my house?" I reminded him.

"Oh yeah, I guess you're right. Thank's for reminding me, I have to remember to tell Sam about that."

I was silent the rest of the ride until we were at Jake's house. I recognized it immediately due to the fact that I'd been coming here every day after Edward left until recently. I hopped out of the truck quickly and bolted to Jake's door, just so happy to be at my second home. Well, at least I tried to. I never actually made it. I ended up flat on my face, my dufflebag having thankfully cushioned my fall.

"Are you all right?" Jake was next to me in an instant, his eyes full of concern.

"I'm fine." I mumbled, cheeks flaming up red.

He helped me up, checking me over for any injuries. "If you get hurt Charlie's going to kill me."

"Did he say that?" I laughed inspite of his worried expression. When he nodded I couldn't help but laugh harder. "You know he loves you right?" I informed him. "Almost as much as I love you." I added as an afterthought.

To go along with it, I leaned forward and placed my lips over his. I'd been about to give him a small peck, and that was it. But he had other ideas. He wrapped one arm around me and pulled my closer, tangling the other in my hair. My hands wove their way knowingly through Jake's cropped hair. I was still trying to get used to his short hair. He'd been wearing it long ever since we were nine. Our lips moved together (sort of like syncronized swimming ya know?). I felt his tongue run along my lip, asking permission to enter. I felt my face heat up, and knew immediately he'd be able to feel it. I parted my lips, allowing him entry. Our tongues moved together expertly, sorting of dancing in our mouths.

I broke away and looked up at Jake. "How many girlfriends have you had before me?" I wondered out loud.

He thought about it for a minute. "One." He thought about it for a minute as if checking to see if he'd miscounted. How he could ever miscount the number one was beyond me. "And she was in Kindergarden." He added knowingly. "You?"

"One." I replied automatically. I almost said none, then remembered the one other boyfriend I HAD had. The one Jake couldn't wait to kill, but wouldn't because of the stupid treaty.

Jake led me into his house (after trying to take my duffel bag which I ultimitly refused. "You saw what happened last time-what if I fall without it?) and straight back to his room. Where was I going to sleep? The only bed there was Jake's...I guess I could bunk on the couch. Seeing my skeptism Jake explained. "You'll be sleeping with me of course."

I felt like my entire head was on fire I was blushing so hard. "And do you think Charlie and Billy will be fine with it?" I managed to get out before being thoroughly embarassed again.

"Well I know Billy won't mind, and what Charlie doesn't know won't hurt him. Besides, you don't have to worry about it for a while. We're going to the bon fire first."

I glanced over at the digital clock on his nightstand. "We've still got an hour or so, until it gets dark." I informed him.

"We like to get there early before sundown so we can hang out before the elders get there and start going on and on about legends we already know." Jake explained, scooping me up marriage style and carrying me out to the door.

"Wait! I have to take a shower first." I told him.

"Bella." He sighed. "You smell fine to me."

"Jake." I sighed back. "Just because I don't smell doesn't mean I'm clean."

"Fine." Jake growled setting me down on my feet. "But hury up."

"In a hurry?" I asked sarcastically.

"No, I just don't like being away from you for too long." My heart stuttered in my chest. I reached up and kissed him before turning and sprinting to the bathroom.

I had to say, the shower helped my nerves a LOT. It was quick though, so I couldn't stand there and enjoy myself. I wrapped myself in a towel when I got out and darted to Jake's room. I swear my heart stopped when I saw him sitting there. I watched as his eyes raked my basically naked form.

"I need to get dressed." I explained to his motionless form. He raised an eyebrow as if to say "and?". "So get out." I elaborated.

He groaned and lurched onto his feet. He kissed me gently on his way by, before leaving the room. Sure enough he left the door wide open behind him. Men. I shut it quickly before rushing over to my duffel. I couldn't help but groan when I saw what was probably the most horrible thing ever. I should have seen it coming. With Edward back, so was the rest of his family: including Alice. Somehow she'd snuck into my room and replaced all my clothes with designer clothes.

I pulled on a pair of ultra-tight black skinny jeans and a low-cut brown t-shirt with small slits down at the bottom of the sides over a lacy black bra with matching underwear. I couldn't believe Alice would do something like this. I slipped on the black converses, noticing that the only other pair of shoes were some dangerous looking high heels that I was DEFINATELY not going to be wearing on the beach.

I came stomping out of Jake's room and into the living room where he was sitting. (Billy had gone over to Sue's for the day) His eyes nearly bugged out of his head when he saw me. "Alice's work." I explained pulling at the bottom of the shirt. It somehow kept riding up and exposing my stomach. When Jake continued to stare at me open mouthed I decided to cut in. "So are we going to the bon-fire or not?" I demanded, tugging on my shirt again.

"Sure, sure." Jake mumbled, still slightly slack jawed. He flipped off whatever he'd been watching and led me out to the truck, his eyes never once leaving me. "I'm going to have to make sure everyone stays away from you." Jake announced, finally having gained access to the speaking part of his brain.

"Why's that?" I wondered, turning off the road into the beach parking lot.

"Because you look WAY too good tonight." He informed proudly as if he were the one in the outfit instead of me.

I hopped out of the truck and headed towards the rest of the pack, with Jake at my heels. Whistles and catcalls sounded when I approached the pack. "I think I just imprinted!" One of the boys gasped jokingly.

"Quit it Jared." Emrbry laughed, elbowing the speaker.

I felt myself blush hard, as Jake led me over to a log around the fire. "I have to go talk to Sam, I'll be right back." Jake whispered in my ear before kissing me lightly. I knew what he was doing, he was staking a claim, making sure the others knew not to try and ask me out. Was he really worried I'd accept any of them? As if!

"So, Bella," Embry sighed. "how're them vampires doin'?"

"I wouldn't know." It came out snappier than I intended. I mean, they couldn't possibly know what me and Jake knew, right?

"Geez, it was just a question." He laughed.

I tried to give a little apology smile with my entire face a deep scarlet. Suddenly I felt myself being pulled up by strong warm arms. I was in Jake's arms, and that's when I knew I was home. "I need to talk to you." He murmered into my ear.

"M'kay." I sighed blissfully.

Over by the tree where I'd first been informed about the "cold ones" and werewolves by the past Jake, the present Jake looked down at me seriously. "I told Sam about my little accident. He said we need to wait and see who's doing all those murders in Forks first. If it IS Edward we're going to kill him." I tried to feel some hint of regret, but I couldn't. The guy had spent an entire year telling me he loved me before saying he deserved better and leaving me. "If his family doesn't get in the way, we'll leave them be."

I nodded once before changing the subject. "Where's Quil?" I wondered.

I saw Jake visibly stiffen in front of me. "He hasn't phased yet." He explained tightly.

"Yet? So he's still going to phase though?" I questioned.

Jake nodded. "With those leeches here, definately."

"I have another question. What's imprinting?"

Jake wasn't as stiff this time, but he still seemed tight. Like it was an uncomfortable subject to talk about. "It's when you meet your perfect other half. When you know you've met the right person, the one you're going to spend the rest of your life with. The perfect puzzle piece that connects directly to your soul."

"You seem to be able to describe it accurately." I noticed. "Have you ever imprinted?" On me! Please say on me!

"No, never." He sighed.

Aww shoot. "So that means you could find your imprint at any time and have to leave me." I felt the tears start budding up in the corners of my eyes.

"Never." He replied harshly. He kneeled down next to me and embraced me softly. "All I see is you, all the time."

I smiled up at him. Wiping away the tears. "I love you." I sighed, snuggling into his chest.
