Hello everyone :D I am sorry that I didn't update yesterday like I said I would but it was Thanksgiving and I just kind of forgot xD I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving by the way and stuffed yourselves with food :) I really liked this chapter especially the ending and I am sure you all will too ;)

Whoa it's fandoms- Thank for reviewing :))

SupernaturalGirl51799- Aw thank I'm glad that you liked it and thank you so much for reviewing :D

Leopardsky- Aww thank you :D You're so sweet. And yes, I love Seth so much, he is one of my favorites of the pack. That was one thing that I was worried about was that Aeriol may be too perfect because I didn't want her to seem like a Mary-Sue. And of course :D And cheetah, I mean Ren turned into a giant cheetah :D

DON'T FORGET TO REVIEW :D

"Can I ask you something?" I asked softly, looking up at Quil. It had been a week since Calypso had joined my pack and she was adjusting surprisingly well. I had planned for her to join the rest of us at school in the beginning of next week. Cal had groaned when I had told her the news while Carissa, Bryn and I had laughed.

"Shoot," Quil gave me one of his cheesy smiles that always made me laugh.

"So what's the deal with Jacob and Bella?" I asked Quil, causally as we sat on the shore of First Beach as we studied for our history midterm. It was starting to become a habit of ours but the two of us both enjoyed it. I had even packed us a lunch in a hand woven basket that I had found in a cabinet in the house. When I had told Quil that we were going to have a picnic as well he had advised me to pack plenty of food. I had followed his advice, stuffing the basket endlessly with bags of chips, fruit, cookies, bottles of water and at least six sandwiches. Now there wasn't a single crumb let to feed to the seagulls. Quil grinned sheepishly at me.

"It's really complicated and I am not sure if Jake wants you to know anything."

"What Jake doesn't know won't hurt him. Now spill." The curiosity was slowly burning me alive. I hadn't been able to get my mind off of it since my pack had sat down with the wolves and had them tell us about Bella's past. Jacob seemed to genuinely care about the human girl and that was my mind just making assumptions from the facial expressions I had seen him make the other day.

I knew it shouldn't have bothered me. I had only known Jacob for a short time and it didn't make sense for me to be jealous that he had strong feelings for another girl.

"Well, he is being an asshole, ignoring you for Bella when you're his impr- friend," Quil's mouth immediately snapped shut as he looked at me with wide eyes.

"What did you almost call me?"

"Nothing."

"Clearly, it's not nothing," I pointed him in the side with my pencil, "Spill, Aterea."

He frowned at me, "I can't really tell you. Only Jake can."

"I doubt that's going to happen anytime soon considering that he is in love with some human girl," I grumbled under my breath and pouted.

"Oh come on, turn that frown upside down. I think I know exactly what can cheer you up," He grinned, grabbing my hand and pulling me to my feet. I didn't flinch this time when his hot skin came into contact with mine. After hanging around Quil so much, you get used to the fact that he was always warmer and

"Quil, where are you taking me," I asked, "What about our stuff?"

"I'll have one of the guys come and get it. And it wouldn't be a surprise if I told you, why would it?"

I narrowed my eyes at him, but allowed him to pull through the forest that was joined to the beach until we started to go uphill. Curiosity was starting to get the better of me as Quil walked further and further up the hill. We didn't speak the entire time we walked up the mountainside but with Quil, it was a comfortable silence, where not everything had to be filled with meaningless chatter.

"Okay now you have to close your eyes," Quil whispered as we neared a clearing in the trees.

"Why do I feel like you're going to kill me if I do?" I laughed.

"I'm pretty sure you would kill me before the thought of killing you would even cross my mind," He chuckled, glancing over his shoulder, "Eyes closed."

"This is true," I laughed, before adding, "Yes, sir."'

I closed my eyes and Quil grabbed hold of my hand, leading the short distance out of the trees and into the roaring wind that whipped my hair around my face. I caught the strong scent of salt and the shrill calls of seagulls.

I opened my eyes and gasped.

I was on a cliff. A very high fucking cliff.

"Holy hell," I whispered in shock, grabbing hold of Quil's hand just as my knees turned into Jell-O.

"Hey, you okay?" Quil asked, looking at me with concern in his dark brown eyes. "You're not afraid of heights or anything right?"

I shook my head no.

"Good," I looked over my shoulder to see Embry walking through the bushes with nothing but jean shorts.

"Do any of you own shirts?" I growled out, causing the two werewolves to laugh.

"We do but we're always warm so none of us really see the point in wearing an entire outfit since we sort of explode when we phase," I smirked at how Embry's cheeks turned a light shade of pink.

"It's alright, Embry, I understand."

"Now if you two are done

"Do I have to?" I groaned, before laughing when they teamed up together and gave me the puppy-dog eyes and nodded their heads.

I groaned again.

"Okay, fine but if I die, I will haunt both of you for the rest of your lives."

"You won't die," Embry said as he moved to the cliff's edge, "This is perfectly safe."

And with that, he took off sprinting to the cliff's edge before launching himself over the side and into the air. Quil smiled at me like a ten year old boy before following right after his best friend while I still stared after them in shock.

It was a few seconds before I heard a faint splash as they entered the water. I moved forward, taking cautious steps towards the cliff's edge. There was adrenaline flowing through my veins and I still hadn't even jumped yet but my curiosity was starting to get the better of me. I looked down the white foamed waves crashing into the rocky cliff side, silently wondering what it would feel like it my head hit one of the rocks instead of the water.

I took another step.

I was so close to the edge that all I had to do was take one more step and than I would be falling through the air until I hit the water at the bottom. I lifted my foot to take that step.

"Aeriol!"

I jumped at the sound of his voice, leaning to far forward and than my body was falling until something hot grabbed my wrist, yanking me away from the edge and into the safety of his warm, muscular arms.

"Never do that again," Jacob whisper growled in my ear as he held me to his chest. I was consumed by his scent of pine and spice but also by how warm he was. I hadn't been planning on moving away from him until some bushes started to rustle and Jacob jumped up to his feet, a deep growling ripping through his chest.

I used my hands to catch myself and keep from hitting my head on a pointy looking rock, turning to see Embry and Quil emerge from

"What the hell is wrong with you two?" Jacob growled, his hands started to shake as he glared at his two best friends.

Quil narrowed his eyes at Jake while Embry just looked uncomfortable.

"Oh chill out, Jake, " Quil said, "Embry and I were just showing Aerie a good time since you never spend time with your own imprint."

"Stop, Quil, " I hissed, although I was dying to ask what an imprint was, "It's fine, Jacob. None of us got hurt and that's all that matters, right?"

"No but you could have," Jake growled, grabbing my hand. I felt a wave of heat shoot up my arm and my heart beat start to go out of control whenever he happened to touch my skin. "I'm taking Aeriol home."

Clearly not bothering to wait for either of his friends to reply to him, Jacob lead me back the way Quil and I had come. Our walk was silent but it wasn't the same comfortable silence it had been with Quil. Anyone could feel the tension between the two of us and it didn't help that Jacob hadn't stopped shaking.

We walked all the way through the forest to a clearing. I blinked a few times as my eyes adjusted to the sunlight before I realized that Jacob was walking into a hand- made garage and that his one story faded red house was less than fifty feet away.

"Why did you bring me here?" I asked as I followed him inside the garage to get away from the rain that was just starting to pour down on us.

"I've been meaning to talk to you for a long time," Jake whispered, leaning against the the side of a car.

"Well, than why don't you talk to me now?" I smirked, standing next to him and nudging him with my shoulder. He didn't even budge. Jacob smirked.

"Nice try."

I shrugged. "I figured it was worth a shot."

"You know you're pretty amazing right?" He whispered. I stiffened as his words processed in my mind.

"What do you mean by that exactly?" I asked, raising an eyebrow at him. My heart was racing as I waited for him to respond.

"I can't stop staying away from you, Aerie," He whispered, moving so that he stood in front of me while I had my back pressed up against his car. I looked at him with wide eyes, "It's getting too difficult to not be around you and when I am with you, I'm actually happy."

My breath caught in my throat as he looked into my eyes. Was it just me or was his face getting closer to mine?

Oh my god. It was. Jacob was different leaning closer to me and I stood up on my tiptoes to make it easier for him to reach. Our lips were only a centimeter apart when someone gasped.

"Jake?"

I wanted to growl at the newcomer to go away and lay in a ditch. Jacob had been about to kiss me and they just had to ruin the moment. I turned around and there she was, big doe brown eyes that now held deep sadness, long mahogany brown hair and extremely pale skin.

"Bella?" Jacob breathed.

I bit back a growl as the one and only Bella made her way into the garage, frowning at how little space there was between our two bodies.

"You said you wouldn't, Jake," She whispered sadly. My eyebrows raised in shock. Wouldn't what? What was she talking about?

Jake's eyes widened as he looked at her in shock as Bella turned around and hurried out of the garage back out into the rain.

"Bella!" Jake shouted, sprinting after her into the rain, "Bella, wait a minute!"

I stood in the middle of the garage, in shock. Jacob had been about to kiss me and than runs after the girl who was supposed to be in love with a vampire. I don't know what hurt more, the fact that she was still coming around or that Jacob decided to run after her.

I don't know how long I sat in the middle of Jake's garage. A few minutes maybe an hour but the time I spent waiting for Jacob to come back felt eternality.

I jumped to my feet as soon as he walked back into the garage without a shirt this time and he was soaking wet.

"What happened?" I whispered.

"She wouldn't let me talk to her," He whispered, his voice sounded hollow, there was not one hint of emotion behind it, "I need to make things right with Bella. I'm sorry Aeriol, but I think you should go home."

A sharp pain went through my heart at the thought of him making things right with Bella. She had someone else and it was a leech, something that was cold and undead. Why did Jake feel the need to go running to comfort a human when there was someone else standing right in front of him?

I bit my lip as I nodded, not daring to meet his deep set black eyes and hurried out of the garage before he could see that I was on the verge of tears.

And it was walking away from the garage, trying to keep the tears at bay that I realized I was hopelessly falling in love with Jacob Black.

TADA! :D What did you think of the ending for this chapter? I find it adorable and it just fit with the rest of the story :)) Leave a review and tell me what you thought :D Don't worry I'll update again soon :D

Love,

Owly
