Call of the Forest 27 Returning Everything to Normal Part II (SPOV)

~*~X~*~

I feel kinda bad that no one likes Emily's spaghetti, but next to Bella's stew, everyone could see the differences that Nix mentioned.

It wasn't a surprise that Nix said Bella's stew was better.

The next day came quickly for all of us. I was excited for today, because today's the first day that all of us can hang out again! Granted we have to hang out with Paul and Jared too, but they aren't too bad once you get to know them.

"Hey Bella!" I called as I walked into the kitchen/living room.

"Hey Seth." Bella replied as she continued cooking whatever it was the she was cooking, covering up the entire stovetop with pans.

The rest of the pack, including Embry, slowly drifted out of their rooms and towards the delicious smell of whatever Bella was making. Those of us stupid enough to stray too close got a hard whack from Bella's wooden spoon. Why did Emily have to give that to Bella? Of course I didn't get hit, not that I ever got hit by Emily's spoon, but from what everyone else says it hurts… a lot.

"Now you guys can eat…" Bella started, before being shoved out of the way by eight hungry werewolves. "You shouldn't bite the hand that feeds you guys…"

I think I was the only one that actually heard Bella, since I was waiting for the other guys to move out of the way.

When the other guys finally cleared the island the once held a mountain of pancakes, there was just a few crumbs left on the plate "Really guys?" I moaned, my stomach growling in protest.

"Sorry Seth…OWW!" Jake yelped as Bell wacked him on the head with her wooden spoon, before going to every member of the pack and doing the same to them.

"You guys are so selfish! Can't you save some for your youngest brother, or the one that fed you! If you do that again then you can kiss your food goodbye!"

The entire room was met with silence.

"Come on Seth. I can cook bacon for you."

"No Bella, it's really okay…" I said as my stomach rumbled in protest to my words.

"You need to eat something Seth. I know for a fact that you guys can't survive more two hours without eating something."

"Come on Seth, you have no say in the mater."

Bella drug me towards the stove, and slapped a spatula in my hand before flinging a ton of bacon into the pans that were still covering the stovetop.

"You really don't have to do this Bella…"

"No Seth, I have to. After all, they didn't leave anything for me either." Bella glared at the guys at her last comment. It's surprising how six-foot guys slouch under the gaze of a five-foot female with a sturdy and durable wooden spoon.

After about ten minutes Bella took the bacon out of the pans and layered each strip in a lattice on a mountain of paper towels.

"Dig in Seth." Bella turned to face the other guys "You better not even THINK about eating this, or you'll be getting a lot more than a spoon to the head!"

The guys cowered away as Bella and I ate our breakfast.

School was fairly uneventful, save for everyone and their mother asking where we all were for the past week. To tell you the truth, we all ditched yesterday. None of us could go to school knowing that Bella was getting the tribal tattoo, especially with how nervous she's been. We all tried to tell her that it wasn't that bad, but she wouldn't have it.

Bella's been living in the lodge with the rest of us ever since Charlie kicked her out of his house. Now only Embry isn't living with the rest of us full time.

Sam said if he wanted, we could let Tiffany in on the secret, so he doesn't get yelled at for being home late all the time. Sam offered Nix the same offer with his mom, and now he can pretty much come and go as he pleases. But Embry thinks that the secret is more important. He's such a trooper.

"I can't believe that we're going to be seniors next year…"

"Neither can I Seth. It seems like just yesterday that we were starting kindergarten together…" Bella reminisced.

"We have to survive finals first though…"

"Geeze Jake, are you falling behind again?"

"It's just so hard to keep up with everything Embry. You know what I mean…"

"We all do Jake, we all do." Jared said, walking towards our table in the lunch room.
