CHAPTER THIRTEEN
JEALOUSY CAN BE DEADLY
When we reached the counter where Mike stood, Harry threw the tape on the desk; it made a loud noise as the plastic cover of the tape hit the wood. Mike looked down at the video then looked up at the three of us and smiled.
"Hello Harry, Jake," Mike said, then nodded to Lizzy as he looked her over with a half smile. "What can I do for you today?" he asked.
"I understand you worked at the lemon aide stand during the festival," Harry said. He nodded his head.
"Yeah, I did, why? Is there a law against that?" he said with a chuckle. Harry ignored his insults and continued.
What do you know about herbs?" Harry asked him as he glared at him waiting for him to answer. Mike chuckled once again. "I think you're asking the wrong person here Harry, " he said then looked over to me with a smirk on his face, "Jake would know more about that than I would," he continued, a low growl rippled deep within my chest at his prejudice statement, and I knew he wasn't thinking clearly, in get a jab at me he'd forgotten who he was talking to, considering Harry was from the reservation himself. Although Harry lived in Forks now due to his job as the chief of police didn't change the fact that Harry was still Native American. Harry cleared his throat, as Mike looked back to him realized what he had said and lowered his head as to hide his insolence from Harry who was glaring at him even harder now.
"So you're telling me that you have no knowledge of herbs at all," Harry asked.
"No Harry! I don't know anything about herbs, other than you put them in certain foods," he said getting agitated.
"Then would you mind telling me how you came across the herb you held in your hand here in this tape?" Harry asked as he jabbed at the tape with one of his fingers that he had flung on the counter top when we first arrived.
Mike looked up at Harry, and you could see the wheels turning in his head, as for me I just wanted to rip his head off, human or not, he was really pissing me off.
"We have you on tape putting a leaf like substance into a drink, then retrieving said substance and serving it too Jake here," Harry told him. He stared at him for a few seconds and when Mike didn't say anything he continued. "So…what do you have to say for yourself son?" Mike still didn't say anything, he stood there staring at Harry and chewing on the side of his jaw, then looked down at the tape and tried to grab it, but Harry got to it first, Harry smiled at Mike then looked at us, then back to Mike..
"I was hoping you would do that son," he told Mike. "I think you have something to tell me son," Harry said. Mike looked down at his hands as he twisted his fingers around one another.
"Okay…okay…," he said, then looked at Lizzy, "I didn't mean for you to get that drink," he told her, "It was meant for him," he said sarcastically pointing to me.
"What did I ever do to you man?" I asked him shocked and pissed more than ever.
"Every time, and I mean every time I find a girl and were getting along really good and I think that maybe, just maybe I've found the right one, you come along and take her from me," he spat between his teeth.
"What the hell man, Lizzy doesn't even know you," I yelled at him.
"It's just not her," he spat.
"Then who?" I asked. He looked at me with hate, his face was as red as it could get without having a stroke and answered me.
"First it was Jessica… she came back and broke up with me, then there was Lauren she did the same thing, both of them came home from one of your so called bonfires, (he held up both hand and two fingers on both hand and bent them at the same time a few times, as showing me the quote sign.) and told me they couldn't see me any more saying they had met someone else and wanted to be with him and that someone was you Jake," he spat out once again.
"Man, I don't know why they told you that, maybe they wanted to get away from you, and used me to do it, and from what I've seen of you so far, and if I was them, I would have run as fast as I could in the opposite direction, but I never have nor would I ever be with either one of those skank's," I told him in a heated tone. "But I'll tell you something right now you really fucked up man when you tried to kill me," I told him. He gasped at my words, his eyes became large and stood up straighter than he was before and looked shocked.
"Kill you! I never tried to kill you I just wanted to get you out of the way. I heard your dad say what was in that sack would cause coma, he didn't say anything about death," he said.
"Now what are you talking about Mike?" I asked him getting tired of his ranting. Mike looked away from me and looked at Harry this time and continued.
"Jake and his dad came in here awhile back, Billy was needing some fishing gear, he was carrying a sack, he left it sitting here on the counter and told Jake to keep an eye on it, said to make sure no one got into it, said if it got into the wrong hands there would be hell to pay if not properly handled right, he said even if it got on your hands and you didn't wash them before you ate it could get into your food and if digested it could cause coma. So…when Jake turned his back, I grabbed one of the leaves and shoved it into my pocket. I began to shake I was getting so pissed, I clamped my teeth together I was trying to keep my temper under control.
"It was bad enough that you tried to do it to me, but you missed me and got my girl, that leaf could have killed her!" I spat through my teeth. Mike began to break down, he lowered his head as tears formed into his eyes.
"I'm sorry man," he whimpered.
"Turn around son and put your hands on your head," Harry told him.
Mike slowly turned around and did what he was told, Harry grabbed one of his wrist and twisted it down around his back and clicked one side of the handcuffs on him, the repeated the process with the other hand, he read him his rights as he led him to the patrol car of the other officer that waited in the parking lot. As we left we lock the store door and walked over to Harry's cruiser and climbed in and returned to the police station. When we arrived at the police station, we thanked Harry profusely as he went in to book Mike as Lizzy and I headed back to the reservation.
"Changing Dimensions"
I didn't know how to help Bella she looked like a rug had been pulled out from beneath her and in away it had, she found out she had a twin sister, an identical twin sister and at the same time she lost her, she just seemed so…empty, like she lost a part of herself.
"Bella, are you alright?" I asked, she looked up at me and her face had gone completely white, she shook her head.
"All my life I've felt like a piece of me was missing, I never could figure it out, I thought maybe it was because I lost my mom, but when you said I had a identical twin…I felt a cold shiver run through my body, that's what it was… I had a twin out there, and now she's gone," she shook her head again, "in a way I'm happy I've finally figured out why I felt the way I did all those years, but at the same time I'm sad because I've never met or never will meet my sister…Why would they do that?" she asked.
"Who honey?" Charlie asked.
"Grandma and Grandpa Dwyer, why would they keep her from us?" she asked sadly.
"Charlie didn't answer, I could tell that he was deep in his thoughts, I wondered if he was trying to come up with an answer to Bella's question, knowing he couldn't answer her, he himself didn't have a clue that Bella had a sister much less a twin sister or he another daughter, I could see the conflict that crossed his face. I knew I interrupted those thoughts when I spoke, he looked up to see that I was speaking directly to him.
"Lizzy told me once she knew nothing of her father, she said she tried to ask her grandparents a number of times about you Charlie, but they wouldn't tell her a thing about you," I told him.
"It's okay Jacob, I've known Renee's parents hated me, they never wanted us together and I always suspected that they were the reason for our separation," he told me with a sigh then he looked over at Bella, he paused for a moment then continued. "We need to get to our meeting," he told her as he got up to take his cup into the kitchen.
I stood up and Bella followed, I heard her sniffle and when she turned to me the tears were flowing, without thinking I grabbed her and brought her to my chest and wrapped my arms around her and rubbed her back to comfort her, but the thing of it was…she didn't stop me instead she wrapped her arms around me as well. She cried against my chest, I immediately felt the electricity flow between us and that's when I realized that she indeed was my imprint. When she pulled away from me she looked up at me and smiled, I wiped the last of her tears from her face.
"Are you alright?" I asked her, I not only wanted to find out if she was okay from finding out about her twin but also from the fact that I had held her in my arms when she hated to be touched.
"I'm fine Jacob, I've got to go get my bag," she said as she ran to her room, I looked over to find Charlie leaning against the door facing between the kitchen and the living room with a smile on his face.
"I've never seen her allow anyone besides myself to touch her before," he said holding his smile; I smiled back and told him I would go get my truck and take them to the meeting. I walked to the house and drove my truck to their house and took them to Tatika's house, we arrived at the small cottage that sat on the edge of the forest.
Tatika was one of the Elders, but he wasn't a normal Elder he was very old, no one knew his true age, everyone on the reservation says his been around for as long as they could remember including my dad, he's known as a spiritual leader, not to be confused with the great spirit although it is said that he has and can talk to the great ones of old as far as we know there was only one man who was able to talk to the great spirit besides Tatika and that was my great-grandfather Ephraim Black and even that hasn't been proven as of yet.
We got out of the truck and walked up to the small cottage and I knocked on the door, Bella was kind of hiding behind Charlie, I couldn't help but chuckle at her, she looked like a small child going to school for the first time and hiding behind her father in fear she would be left.
The door opened and a small man peered through the door. Tatika was a small man probably not more than 5 foot 6 inches at the most he had raven black hair with not a hint of gray that hung to his waist and was laced with beads and a white feather on one side of his head, his face was covered in wrinkles, his skin was darker than mine not that you could see much of it he was covered with clothes all the way down to the moccasins he wore on his feet, he wore a pair of jeans and a pull over buck skin shirt that hung to his hips and was covered with layers and layers of fringe and when he smiled he showed the whitest teeth I think I had ever seen.
"Jacob…what brings you here this fine morning?" he asked.
"Well Tatika, I think you have a meeting with these people right behind me," I told him as I stepped to the side to show Charlie and Bella who finally came out and stood next to Charlie.
Tatika…this is Charlie and his daughter Bella Swan, Bella…Charlie this is Tatika Whitecloud," I said introducing them to each other. Charlie nodded his head and Bella smiled at him.
"Mr. Swan, it's nice to meet you and Bella, I've waited for you for a very long time my child," he said, I looked at him puzzled at his comment. "Please, come in," he said stepping out of the way to make room for us to proceed into his home.
Please review...I would love to hear what you think...bigg huggs Peggy.
