Chapter 24

It was later on in the day when Jacob barged through my room. I was reading a book, to take my mind off of things and was really getting into it. I had a soda in my lap occasionally I would take a sip of it. My door was closed but it wasn't locked when Jacob came barging through.

"We need to talk," Jacob growled.

I stood my ground and got to my feet. "Don't fucking growl at me when your the one who came barging in here!" I yelled.

"Would you have talked to me if I had knocked?" he asked and I thought about that.

"Yeah, I would've. Maybe not earlier but it's six Jacob. I mean I had time to think. And where is Sam?"

"Downstairs. He doesn't matter right now!"

"I might not be happy with Sam but I still don't understand how you could say that to him! He feels bad enough about what he did to Emily without you saying something to him about it!"

I was kind of shocked at myself. I was defending Sam. Well he was my brother.

"Piper, I don't want to talk about that right now," he told me.

"Well I don't care what you want to talk about!" I snapped yelling.

"Can you shut up and stop being difficult and just listen to me. I mean for once stop being difficult Piper this is serious!"

I took a few steps closer until I was right in front of him. Since he was so damn tall I looked up and said, "I didn't hear you calling me difficult when we had our many make-out sessions among when you have me hickey's!"

His face blushened and I rolled my eyes walking out of my room. It's not like he was going to go through it or anything. I walked downstairs and into the kitchen where Sam was talking with Emily.

"Piper, are you okay?" Sam asked. Good. I don't think he heard what I said. He would probably have a fit, no much more than a fit actually.

"Oh, I am fine. JACOB BLACK IS JUST A ASS!" I yelled but there was no need because just as I started Jacob decided to come into view.

Jacob glared at me and I glared right back. At this point I didn't really care that they were wolves but the way he was acting was really just starting to get to me.

At this point I just wanted to tell him 'get the fuck out of my house!'

Emily and Sam were watching us carefully I could tell. We were still glaring at each other. "Can you just talk to me?"

"Why? There is nothing to talk about. You, my brother and your friends are a bunch of werewolves!"

"Aren't you scared of us?" he asked in a whisper.

"No. Not anymore really. I told you Emily talked to me but I am annoyed with how your acting!"

"You didn't say you talked to her!" he snapped at me.

"Well I am saying now," I didn't have the patience to remember if that was exactly what I had said or not.

"Ugh, Sam and I are going to go now. Don't ruin my house," Emily said grabbing Sam's hand. She had to give him a few yanks before they left. I heard the door slam closed and then the start of an engine.

Jacob came over to me, "Can you just talk to me now?"

"About what?" I asked not meeting his gaze.

"Alright why are you upset with me?"

"Because of what you said to Sam about Emily's face! He feels bad enough, and I know you didn't exactly say it like that but we all know what you meant!"

"That's all your mad about? Last night you ran from me!"

"You changed in front of me!"

"Phased."

"Huh?"

"I phased in front of you. That's what it's called when we get into our wolf form. We phase."

"Great," I said sarcastically.

"Just for once listen. It isn't like we all chose this life. We couldn't help it."

"Because of vampires," I whispered but I knew he would be able to hear me.

"Yes. We are protectors. When vampires come into our territory. We kill them."

"How?" I asked interested in the conversation now.

"Rip them up and burn the pieces."

"Can't you guys get hurt?" I asked worried and he just laughed at me.

"Yeah, right. We are fine. Anyways there are, well there were a group of vampires in forks."

"Who?"

"The Cullen's," Jacob spat through his teeth. "They left though. That's why before we weren't going to the hospital in Forks because there leader Carlisle worked there."

I still went there before if I needed to, I just didn't say anything. Kim knew though but I nodded.

"Anyways they left and one of them was dating Bella Swan. That's why she was so messed up because he left her in the woods. Sam found her."

I had heard something about that. I just nodded, "Oh. Are they coming back or something?"

"I hope not!" he snarled. "Sorry, I didn't mean to snarl at you!"

I shrugged, he already changed- I mean as he called it phased in front of me. I don't think anything else could really bother me that much.

"So why can't you kill them?" I wondered. "Because one was dating Bella? And isn't that a little dangerous I mean with him working at a hospital with blood and all while he is a vampire."

"They consider themselves vegetarians. They only drink the blood of animals. And a long time ago we made a treaty with them. If they stayed of this land we wouldn't kill them or expose them."

"Oh." it was all starting to make sense to me now.

"Look I am sorry for what I said to Sam. I know he feels bad about it and all I was just angry. Besides he knows I just said it out of anger. Everything's fine."

"Oh. Okay."

"Are you afraid?"

I rolled my eyes, "No. You freaked me out last night when you turned into a giant horse sized wolf! I didn't want Sam to do the same so I locked myself in all of my room!"

"Then why did you talk to Emily?" he questioned.

"I only talked to her this Morning and it's Emily, no one can really be scared of her, unless she threatens to stop cooking for you guys." I wanted to lighten the mood a bit.

"Yeah. That would be torture. So ugh, are we cool?"

If he meat are we still together than hell yeah, I mean things were still a bit weird but I was sure that we would be able to get through it.

I smirked to myself wanting to just mess with him a little bit, "Ugh, I don't know."

"I understand," he frowned his head going down.

"Yeah, I mean I don't know why you would ask me that, of course we are okay. I love you too much," I said smiling.

Jake's head snapped up and he picked me up out of my seat kissing me all of my face. "I love you, so much Piper."

"Yeah, I love you too." I said placing a gentle kiss on his lips.

"One thing," Jacob said pulling away from me. My legs were wrapped around his waist and I was looking him in the eyes. "What?"

"You can't tell anyone. Emily or the pack doesn't matter you can talk to them but anyone else you can't tell and that includes Kim."

"Will Kim ever know?" I wondered.

"When Jared stops chickening out and tells her," Jacob said.

That would be hard. I mean Kim was my best friend and I never really kept anything from her. She was someone I could tell anything and everything to just like Leah. So how would I do it?

"Okay," I finally somewhat said in a whisper.

"Promise." I could only hope that Jared told her soon.

Thanks for all of the reviews and everything so far. Hope you liked this one. Next chapter should be a more romantic side of Jake and Piper.
