I held my breath.

"Jacob stays," one said. I smiled and released my breath. Take that, Jacob!

"Wait, no! I thought we were getting rid of him like the traitor he is!" said another. The others stood up and started arguing with each other. Most of them trying to keep their shaking under control.

Damn! I thought that they had made a decision.

"Enough!" Sam roared. Instantly they stopped bickering. I looked at Jacob. He was sitting there calmly, smiling away. "As just demonstarted, Jacob, creates nothing but trouble. I deem him banished." My heart froze more than it was already.

Jacob smiled broader. "Dammit, look at him. He's fucking excited!" one exclaimed.

"Jacob, you must leav our territory immeadiately. And never return. You hear? Or I swear to God...I'll kill you. Please don't make me do that." Then Sam and everyone but Jacob promptly left.

We all kept frozen until we could no longer smell the wolves. As soon as we were sure they wer gone, Bella made us visible again. Jacob jumped up and ran to hug me. I was mad at him, but when I felt his burning heat, that all vanished. He looked into my eyes smiling. "I can see you now," he said happily. Then he pulled me into one of our longest and most passionate kiss.

"But Jacob..."

"Please don't Jera. My pack is the past, got it? You are the present and the future." He hugged me tightly as if to make me be quiet. I melted in his arms.

Bella tapped me on the shoulder. "You guys, not to interrupt this or anything, but we should get home...Jake, where are we?"

"Oh, by the cliffs of course. Let's go get my car." We walked silently. Jacob wrapped his arm around my waist and I rested my head on his arm. I inhaled his scent happily.

I guess that I was finally able to accept his choice. After all, we would be together forever.

Forever.

We got into his Rabbit. It was parked along the cliffs. The pale moon shone on it lightly. I sat in the passenger seat, Jacob the driver. Bella sat in the back.

"So, tell me what happened," Jacob said as he started the car. I moaned lightly.

"Jake, I think Jera only wants to relive it once. Let's wait until we get to the Cullen's. Do you know the way?"

He smiled bleakly, "I have a sense of where to go, but do you think you could direct me?" She nodded her head and continued in giving directions to him.

I stared out of the window watching the trees pass before my eyes. It's odd, how everywhere, nature looks peacful. No matter what horrible things happen in the area, the terrain remains calm. The only thing that can make it seem disrupted is weather.

But wheater's a funny thing too. Just like vampires and werewolves. And when you think about it, people are pretty odd as well. Maybe not as much, but none the less.

I looked at the time. It was nearing three in the morning. Jacob looked wide awake, though he must be incredibly tired. He felt me watching him and turned and smiled at me. I smiled back. "Are you tired?" I asked him sweetly.

"Nah, I've been more tired than this before." With one hand he stroked my hair. I closed my eyes and enjoyed his touch.

Forks and La Push had brought me so much. They are very strange places to live. Vampires and werewolves mingle with humans everyday. Vampires are killed, werewolves are banished in La Push. Impossible relationships form in Forks. They all collide with each other creating mass chaos in some lives. I don't know if there is any other places in the world like this.

I opened my eyes. As I watched the streetlights, a lone owl swooped all over the highway. It was a random pattern that the owl followed and there was no reason for it either. I laughed quietly as I attempted following it.

"Hey, Jacob," I mused quietly. "Does animal instinct ever take over you when you're a wolf?"

"Unfortunately, yes."

"What's it like?" I looked him. He raised an eyebrow, obviously curious as to why I was asking. "The owl," I explained pointing to it.

"I really don't know. It's kind of like things that wouldn't make sense to a human, has sense to it for an animal. You like, let your body do what it thinks it should do. It's relaxing, but frustrating. Because your human wants to fight it, but at the same time going along with it is much easier."

"Hmm...interesting." He chuckled lightly. Bella looked at me funnily. "Like you never were curious," I accused.

"You are right, I've always wanted to know why dogs chase their tails," she laughed. I pouted and stuck my tongue out at her.

I closed my eyes again. "So, Jera, what animal would you like to be?" Bella teased. I was going to actually answer it. I thought for a little though.

"Maybe a bird," I sighed. "One that can fly and swim too."

"A swan?" Jacob suggested.

"That's so typical. It's like that ballet, Swan Lake," I said. Bella laughed. "So, Bella, how about you?"

"A bat." I rolled my eyes.

"What if Edward was a mouse?" I asked inserting a random animal.

"Mouse then." I giggled. She whacked with all her strength.

"How about you, Jake?" Bella asked. "You can't say wolf."

"Uh...whatever Jera is."

"Ha! I'm not the only one!" Bella exclaimed. We all laughed.

It was good to be happy again.

Then we parked. We were already at the Cullen's. Maybe I had spoken too soon. By the time I opened my door, the whole Cullen clan was on the porch. Gabriel ran up to me and hugged me tightly.

"What happened?" he asked. I smiled at him.

"We'll tell you when we're inside."

"Ok, well can you at least tell me why he's here?" Gabriel asked nodding his head at Jacob.

"He got banished," I replied simply.

"Why?" he whined.

"When we get inside," I insisted.

"Hurry, then."

I started dragging my feet to peeve him. "Please!" Gabriel begged.

"Fine," I said walking normally. Bella was already in the arms of Edward and making out with him on the porch. Jacob came to my side and wrapped his arm around my waist. Gabriel made gagging noises. "Ugh, please, Gabe, he's going to be living with us. And I highly doubt that you are looking forward to moving to Alaska with Bethany and Anthony."

"How can you do that though?" he asked.

"The better question is how can I do this?" I then took Jacob and started kissing him.

"Eww...STOP!"

"Stop being rude then," I said. "Sorry, Jake."

He laughed. "It's ok. I think that this will be much better than facing all of them," he said referring to the Cullen's.

"It'll be fine," I giggled.

Ok. In case you guys didn't realize this. I was bent on one choice when I finished the chapter. Then I started this one and some how I couldn't decided. Anyway I hope this outcome is fit to your liking. I think there will be TWO more chapters in this story. But I KNOW that there will be a sequal.
