Chapter Fourteen: Bad Weather.
Brushing her fingers through her hair, Gabriela groaned annoyed as she took in the weather; there was no way that they could travel to the waterfall today in this sort of weather without the risk of something happening. The idea of stalling for another day didn't seem right and Gabriela hoped that the weather would clear up soon; she headed towards the kitchen to make some breakfast.
She paused at the sight of Jacob already in there making breakfast, Gabriela hadn't been expecting this and she had no idea what to make of the sight of him in the kitchen.
"Morning," Jacob greeted continuing with what he was doing, he didn't wish for things to be awkward and since they weren't going anywhere today they might as well relax. There was no way they could leave for the waterfall and Jacob doubted that the storm would pass any time soon; it was bad out and he hadn't wanted to raise questions by going outside in the rain.
"Morning," Gabriela replied making sure that she looked alright, she was still in her paisley cami pyjama set and she didn't want to accidentally flash Jacob or anything. Moving to pour herself some orange juice, Gabriela couldn't help but stare at the sight of Jacob making breakfast topless; she had to distract herself quickly before she was caught staring at him.
Gabriela blushed a little as she focused on her juice, she couldn't believe that she was checking Jacob out when she was engaged to Daniel; there was no denying that he was a good-looking guy, even better than Daniel right now. Shaking her head trying to clear those thoughts from her mind, Gabriela couldn't get attached to Jacob especially knowing that she was going to be returning to California when this was all over.
It felt weird to think that she might never see Jacob again after this trip was over, Gabriela was growing fond of spending time with him.
"I can't believe it's still raining," Gabriela muttered with a shake of her head, she hoped that the weather would be better tomorrow and she leant back against the couch waiting the rain outside the cabin. Jacob laughed sitting down next to Gabriela, it had pretty much rained all day and he knew that it could carry on for a little while longer; he had sort of enjoyed the weather since it meant he could spend time with Gabriela relaxing.
It had been nice to reconnect with her and Jacob knew that it wasn't going to last, he doubted that they would ever see each other again when Gabriela returned to California to marry Daniel.
"I guess it doesn't rain that much in California," Jacob teased gently, he couldn't imagine living anywhere else but La Push and he guessed that it was good that he was tied to this place. Being alpha of the pack meant a lot and one day he would take over his father's place on the council; Jacob knew what lay ahead of him even if things with Nessie were uncertain.
Gabriela nodded her head, a small smile playing on her lips and she was sure that it was sunny there right now; her family would be enjoying the weather while she was here.
"Do you miss it?" Jacob asked gently, he wasn't sure that he would ever get used to living somewhere like California; he was just so comfortable here in La Push and that wouldn't change. Gabriela paused for a moment, she slowly nodded her head thinking about her home; she liked California but there was just something about being in La Push right now.
The two of them were silent thinking about how things were going to change when this was all over; they both had a feeling that something was going to change about them.
Settling into her bed for the night, Gabriela flicked through her book trying to get comfortable and ignore the pouring rain outside; the room felt a little cold and she drew the covers up her chest wanting to keep warm. Having spent the day with Jacob, it had been nice and Gabriela couldn't help but feel a little torn over the fact that she might not see him again after this.
She wondered for a brief moment how opposed Daniel would be to the idea of inviting Jacob to their wedding, Gabriela wanted him there even if it was just to say goodbye. Pausing at the sound of something outside, Gabriela furrowed her brow and set down her book; it sounded like someone singing and it made the hair on the back of her neck stand up.
Carefully pushing the covers away from her, Gabriela climbed out of bed and slowly made her way out of her bedroom; she paused in the corridor to see if the noise had woken Jacob. When there was no sign of any movement from Jacob's room, Gabriela slowly moved towards the front door wanting to know what the noise was.
She slowly turned the lock before stepping out into the porch, the rain was still pouring and she hesitated at the sight of a woman standing in the rain staring at her.
"Can I help you?" Gabriela asked wondering if she was lost, she was soaking wet and looked like she had been stuck out in the rain for hours; her long blonde hair was plastered to her bare shoulders like her tank-top was. The woman seemed to smile at the fact that she had caught Gabriela's attention, she watched as Gabriela carefully moved to the edge of the porch.
"No but I can help you," the woman called with a smile and before Gabriela could blink, the woman was right in front of her; she stumbled back at the sight of the red eyes that seemed to stare right into her soul. Her heart pounded in her chest and Gabriela backed away from the woman, she had no idea what was going on but everything in her body seemed to be telling her to run for her life.
The woman grinned reaching out to grab Gabriela when the door behind her burst open and a snarl filled the air; she paused for just a brief moment as she looked over Gabriela's shoulder.
"Get the hell away from her," Jacob spat not believing that he hadn't realised that there was a vampire lurking about, he could have sworn that it had disappeared after the other day. He had hoped the pack were keeping a close eye on them since he wasn't able to phase into a wolf with Gabriela around; his brown eyes stayed focused on the hand that was still reaching out to touch the brunette.
Gabriela didn't dare move, she felt sick and her eyes were now locked on Jacob; there was something very different about him right now. Jacob was practically vibrating and it set Gabriela on edge, she had no idea what was going on but she knew that she was in danger right now.
"We could share," the vampire purred reaching out to touch Gabriela once more, she loved doing this sort of thing and it was even better when she made one lover watch her kill the other. Jacob gritted his teeth, he took a step towards the vampire knowing that there was no way that he could watch Gabriela die; he barely had chance to think before he shifted into a wolf.
He snarled furiously at the vampire who only smirked in response before she ran away knowing that the wolf would follow her; both of them disappeared into the forest leaving a shocked Gabriela behind.
