Summer Vacation

(BPoV)

It was merely nine o'clock in the morning when I hear my son shuffle around his room. I soon see him walk out of his room rubbing his eyes.

"Good Morning my son, what makes you wake up so early?" I asked curiously.

"I need to ask a favor of you Dad." He said looking at me with a serious look in his eyes.

"What is it my son?" I ask confused that he was being so serious.

"I was wondering if you could convince Charlie to let Bella spend her Summer Vacation here on the Rez." He said with gentle force.

"Son, you know Charlie is going to have a hay day if I ask this of him." I sighed.

"Dad, you know this just as much as I do that she needs to be away from those reminders of that damned leech!" he growled lowly.

"Besides that I can tell you her time here has been helping her mend" he muttered at his twirling thumbs

"Oh? How so my son?" I asked with a tad of sarcasm.

"She sassed me yesterday and went off on a small giggling spree! Then we laughed as I started a tickling war" I saw him smile then chuckle.

I spit my coffee back into my cup which was a little amount that I took.

"She did what?!" I exclaimed.

My son always was a good story teller, and instead of getting the full story he paused. I saw his face twist from happy to a guilty look.

"What happened after you stopped tickling her? Do not give me that nothing bullshit. I know better." I growled.

He then explained the scene about cliff diving. I shook my head at my son making such a foolish promise to Bella.

"Well Son, no one is perfect on how to react to somethings." I sighed quietly. "You just have to remember she is mending and somethings we will say can slow her mending process. But I do believe she will recover."

"I know Dad…" he muttered.

Then something inside my head finally clicked.

"That is why you want to come down here. You think with her being here that she would mend faster than being in Forks." I muttered out of my epiphany.

His response was clear when his eyes met mine. He was pleading with me to try and get her down here for the summer.

"Alright, Alright!" I sighed. "I will ask my son…"

A bright and huge smile came across my son's face that made my heart ache. O great spirits he has Sarah's smile. I thought to myself.

He went out and I proceeded to the phone.

Ring…Ring…Ring…

"Hey Billy!" Charlie greeted me on the other line.

"Hey Charlie" I greeted "I have a question for you"

"What's up Billy?" he asked, I could hear the curiosity peaking from his voice.

(CPoV)

"I will see if she is amenable of stay over there during the summer." I muttered. "To be honest Billy if it helps her so much I might consider just letting her stay on the Rez."

"Only time will tell my friend. Thank you for allowing this." He replied.

"Later Billy!" I said quietly.

"Bye Charlie" he replied.

I put down the phone and sighed. Would Bella be willing to go to the Rez all summer? I thought to myself.

Well only one way of finding out… I thought and sighed inwardly.

I climbed the stairs and went to her bedroom door. I knocked gently and poked my head into her room.

"Bells?" I whispered.

She was watching the forest like she used when she was depressed and it made a little worried look come across my face. She turned around and with curious eyes she looked at me.

"Hey Dad, What's up?" she asked.

"Nothing much kiddo, but I do have a question, or even more so a request." I muttered sitting on her bed.

"Shoot" she smiled.

Lord have mercy she is my child! Hey wait! She smiled! I thought happily.

"Well, Billy was wondering if you would maybe think about going to the Rez and kind of living there for the summer." I stammered out.

She put her fingers to her chin and let out a nice long "hmm."

After a few moments she let out a sly grin and nodded in agreement.

"Do you need anything before you go?" I asked knowing I don't usually get the chance to baby her like she did me.

"So bathroom supplies would be the main thing, I have been meaning to go and get them but with final going on it made it hard." She replied.

"Alright you stay and pack and I will go and get your bathroom supplies." I amended

She nodded and I went to the store.

(BPoV)

Once Charlie had returned with my supplies my packing was complete. I double checked to make sure I had everything and I noticed Charlie on the phone. I get everything downstairs and call out to him.

"Charlie! I am heading over to La Push!"

He came downstairs dressed in his police uniform.

"Sorry Bells, I got called into work. Tell Billy Hello and no funny business!" he said in his Chief Swan tone.

I giggled quietly and replied.

"Yes Chief Swan."

"You are so much like your mother!" he smiled gently.

"I am a lot like you to Dad." I smiled.

"Thanks Kiddo!" he called out as he went to his cruiser and left.

I finished packing my truck and took a deep breath.

"Off we go to La Push!" I muttered excitedly to myself.

I started the engine and it roared to life. I then started the small journey to La Push.

(JPoV)

I sat in my living room surrounded by the pack. We had been discussing Patrols when I heard Bella's truck coming down the road. Everyone's eyes fell to me and I just shrugged.

"What did you invite Leech Lover over for?!" Paul asked indignantly.

"Shut your mouth Paul!" I growled.

"If I don't?! What are you going to do about it Black!" he roared, pissed that he was being told what to do.

"Neither one of you are going to do anything!" Sam intervened with his Alpha order.

"But-!" Paul immediately pipped up.

"No Buts Paul!" Sam roared. "She is here for the summer! Jacob and I already had discussed this!"

We all got quiet as we heard the door slam on her truck and her gathering her items.

Quil get her stuff for her and put it in the girls' old room Sam ordered through the pack mind.

There was a small rapping at the door. I got up with Quil by my side. I opened the door and I saw Bella there with two bags and her smile that was on her face.

"I will take your things Bella" Quil muttered.

She nodded to Quil and passed it off to him as he had asked. She then proceeded into the living room where everyone was at.

She had surprise painted across her face as everyone but Paul smiled at her.

"Hi" she muttered looking down at the ground. I could tell she was nervous.

Everyone line up. We are going to greet her like we would anyone else! Sam ordered.

Sam held out his hand to Bella as if to shake her hand. He instead pulled her into a hug and muttered "Welcome to the Rez!"

Emily followed Sam but she was louder about it. "Welcome Bella!" She greeted with a gigantic smile.

Paul was next and I noticed fear in Bella's eyes. I decided to let it go and maybe she would tell him later.

"Welcome Leech Love-" Paul greeted but was immediately hit upside the head by Sam with a great deal of force.

"Welcome Bella" he said though clenched teeth.

After that small ordeal Jared, Quil, and Embry all hugged Bella and welcomed her to the Rez. I was the last one to greet her.

"Hey Bells" I greeted when she wrapped me up in a hug.

"Hey Jake" she said her voice thick with what sounded like sadness but she was smiling.

"Welcome to the Rez" I whispered in her ear which caused her to shiver.

She nodded and my arms were wrapped around her waist.

(BPoV)

I looked at all over them and I felt myself getting weepy. I soon felt the tears that betrayed how happy I felt in this moment.

I felt all the eyes were on me and I saw concern in their eyes.

"Thank You" I sobbed gently. "I swear most of these tears are joyful one!"

Jake's arms tighten around me trying to comfort me. I then hear Emily ask something.

"Why?" She asked, I must have portrayed confusion as she clarified her question, "Why are not just tears of joy?"

"Emily…" Sam looked over at her.

"No Sam, it is okay" I sobbed "You all have the right to ask that question."

I took a small breath and continued.

"The Cullens were the exact same way of greeting me, they welcomed me with open arms and not many questions." I cried a little more. "Since they left I never thought I would ever feel this.." I sobbed again.

"Welcomed, Loved, or Happy again!" I managed to get a voice crack on the word happy.

Emily came forward and wrapped me into such a comforting hug that soon transformed into a group hug. "Thank you all so much" I muttered.

The group hug had dissolved into me sitting between the triangle of Jacob, Quil, and Embry. Sam finished his business when Emily called out.

"Lunch is ready! Bella gets first plate!"

A/N: I hope you liked this chapter. It hit me in the feels a little when I first wrote it and a Piano guys cover of Thousand Years did as well. I do apologize to those who like faster relationship build ups but for now I doing this to give Jacob the six months more he needed.
