12. Camels, Parties and Hassle

I knew it was going to be hot, but not this hot, it was like being baked in an oven, and people thought that I was hot when they touched me! Thought Jacob.

Edward snickered, and Jacob gave him a scowl back.

"Hey what do you two find so funny?" Bella said coming over.

"I didn't find it funny" Jacob replied angrily.

"Jacob thought he was hot, but he is nothing compared to this!" Edward said laughing.

Bella joined in mockingly.

"Uhh, your both so annoying" Jacob said before running off to find Nessie.

Nessie was in her new bedroom, it was smaller than her old room but she liked it more, there was a cute little window that was like a seat so she could sit up there at night.

"Hi Nessie" A voice said from the door way.

She jumped at the sound and then smiled when she saw who it was.

"Hi, Jake!" she said jumping lightly into his arms.

They were a thing- not girlfriend and boyfriend- but best friends.

Nessie smiled at the thought, maybe when she was older they would date- that's if Nessie didn't find someone else who she really wanted to be with in the meantime.

"So what have you been up to?" Jake asked amused at Nessie's dream like expression

She quickly snapped out of it, looking around dazed.

"Umm, not much just unpacking" she said looking pointedly at the boxes crammed gull of clothes and toys.

"Do you need any help?" he asked showing his muscles laughing.

Nessie joined in laughing.

"Ok. Could you put my wardrobe there?" she said pointing to the other side of the room.

"My bed there" she said pointing to another corner

"And my toys arranged on the shelves there" she said smiling

"Bye, Thanks for your help, I will be back later!" she said smiling and running out the door.

Jacob grunted and muttered something about help being nice.

Nessie ran to her parents.

"Ok, the plan is set, Jake is busy tidying my room up, now do what you have to do!"

Bella and Edward laughed at their daughter.

"We knew we could trust you to get him busy for a while said Edward laughing.

"Okay, so what's the plan?"

The rest of the family gradually came by and start helping with the arrangements for Jakes surprise.

An hour later and they were ready.

"Okay everyone he is coming"

The Cullen's had organised Jake a party because it was his birthday soon, they had paid for the whole wolf tribe to come and visit him and be involved in the party, they had invited his father Billy and his sisters Rachel and Rebecca.

Everyone was here and they were all ready sitting in the front room, with a cake, balloons, presents and music.

Everyone could hear him walking down the stairs and heard him shout out.

"Where is everyone?! Nessie I finished tidying your room!"

Nessie snickered.

And he obviously heard because he bounded into the room and was greeted by a chorus of Happy Birthday. When everyone stopped singing and Nessie had bounded up to him and hugged him, he let out a whistle and said "I thought you had forgot my Birthday!" he laughed to himself.

Everyone gave him their presents and hugged him in turn.

Bella was last and had tears around her eyes "I cant believe my best friend is now older than me!" he laughed and she joined in.

"You better be grateful for this present, I got hassled loads at the markets by the Egyptian sellers, one even noticed I was a demon!" she laughed and he shook with pride.

It was a huge box nearly bigger than the room.

It had air holes in it, and he could hear something inside, something alive.

Bella saw his confusion and said.

"Think of it as your pet" she said laughing.

He gave her a strange look.

He peeled the side of the box off and to his amazement he saw a camel!

He was lost for words and the room erupted in cheers of laughter at his astonished face.
