"Hey Jace, I am going for a hike wanna come" I looked up to see her smile.

"Sure" I said as I put a shirt over my bra. I got dressed, Bella got in her truck and I got my bag. We drive close to La Push. We got out and she lead me close to where

the pack goes cliff diving.

"Bella" I asked her, she looked back at me and grabbed my hand, her hands were sweaty, what is she doing.

"Come on" She said making me worried as she pulled me closer to the edge, I could see the waves below crashing on the rocks.

"You wanted me to be human. " Bella's voice was low but I could hear her as her grip held strong.

"What" I said confused as her grip tightened as she took her bracelet off.

"Watch me. You won't stay with me any other way." She said even softer, then she pulled me with her as she began falling,I saw the waves coming closer till we both

plunged, I swam to the surface,

"Bella, BELLA, WHERE ARE YOU" I screamed as she then surfaced, her face had this smile of insanity,

"WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU" I screamed at her as she looked behind me, I turned around to see another large set of waves show up, they sent me under

as I thrashed about, I tried to surface but was sadly plunged under again. Bella looked behind me and then I saw red hair swimming towards me. Victoria, I swam

backwards and soon felt my head hit the rock wall behind me, I looked over, Bella floating next to me. I blacked out for a bit, I felt something dragging me and then

pressure was applied on my chest.

"Jace. Please. Breathe! Breathe! Come on, Jace. " I heard a very familiar voice filling my ears but a harsh pressure on my chest.

"Breathe. Jace? Cmon BabyGirl, can you hear me?" I saw a blurred shape that became clear, Jacob, I opened my eyes and coughed up water.

"Jake."I said looking him in his brown eyes with relief. He then kissed me again, I saw Bella with this angry look on her face after we parted.

"What the hell were you thinking, huh?" He said giving me a stern look.

"Bella wanted to go for a hike in La Push, we got to where I saw the pack cliff diving, then she pulled me with her. She tried killing me" I said but whispered the last

part. I looked over to see Sam yelling something to Jacob.

"What happened at Harry's?" I asked as I was shivering.

"Harry Clearwater had a heart attack. Charlie and my Dad are at Harry's place with his family." He replied with a sad look in his eye.

"Is he" I stuttered being so cold. He nodded, I snuggled into his arms.

"Come on, I'll give you something to dry and drive you home." He said holding me into his chest as he picked me up. Jacob while carrying me and with Bella walking

behind him got to the red truck. Jacob drove, I was in the middle, and Bella was by the window. She had his big jacket, but I was cold.

"Hundred and eight degrees over here." He said glancing at me. I went by his side and god he was hot.

"My hands are freezing. It must be nice, never getting cold." I said feeling warmer as I stayed there.

"It's a wolf thing." He smiled at me, then frowned at Bella.

"You saw what happened to Emily. Sam got angry, ...lost it for a split second... ...Em was standing too close. He will never be able to take that back. What if I get mad

at you?" Jake whispered in my ear and I shook my head at him,

"You would never do that Jake" I said as I snuggled deeper into his warmth. Soon we got home,

"Thank you... ...for everything." I said giving him a hug, then tried to go inside.

"Wait! There's a vampire." He said holding me close.

"That's Carlisle's car!" Bella snapped at him as she got out of the car then tried to drag me inside, I held myself to my imprinter.

"They're here. Bella, it's a trick. Stop! You gotta come with us" I growled at her.

"They won't hurt us" Her eyes pleaded at me. I then looked at Jacob,

"If a Cullen is back here, this is their territory. The treaty says we can only defend our own lands. I can't protect you here." He said to me, but Bella gripped my arm.

"Okay, it's okay. You don't have to, We will be fine." She said as I tried to get away, she is definetly trying to kill me.

"You're about to cross a line." Bella said looking him in the eyes. I ripped myself away from her and got myself in Jacob's arms. Bella had this look of utter shock but she

went inside, I stayed in his arms.

"Aw, what is that God awful wet dog smell?" Alice asked her as Jacob and I got inside.

"That's probably me." Bella replied.

"Or... it's Jacob" She continued.

"Jacob who?" Alice asked.

"Jacob's kind of a werewolf." Bella stammered.

"Ugh! Bella! Werewolf's are not good company to keep!" Alice snorted. We made ourselves known.

"Speak for yourself. I had to see if you were safe." Bella asked as Jacob wrapped his arms around my waist.

"I thought you couldn't protect me here." Bella asked Jacob, who huffed.

"Guess, I don't care." Jacob said as he sniffed the air.

"Well, I'm not gonna hurt her" Alice said staring at me.

"No, you're just a harmless Cullen. We're talking about the other bloodsucker... ...who tried to kill Bella because of you." Jacob said clarifying his actions.

"Victoria? - Yeah, Victoria has been around." Alice said surprised.

"I didn't see her. I didn't see you getting pulled out of the water either. I can't see past you and your pack of mutts!" Alice stammered at my boyfriend.

"Don't get me upset." He said taking a threatening step forward.

"Hey, stop! " Bella said getting between them.

"Things are gonna get very ugly!"He yelled.

"Stop! Stop! Stop!" I said getting in front of him, Jacob cupped my cheeks as I smiled.

"I will give you a minute." She said smiling.

"You're going anywhere, you're gonna come back, right" Bella asked.

"As soon as you put the dog out." She said as I heard a little growl come from Jacob.

"Are there others? How many Cullens are here and how long are they staying?" Jake asked.

"No. It's just Alice. And she can stay as long as she like." Bella replied.

"Are the rest coming back?" He asked her.

"No. Not that I know of. Anything else?" She replied.

"That's it. Well, if that's all, then you better go run back to Sam." She said making me want to punch her. Soon the phone rang, Jacob got it, his face went a little angry,

then he hung up.

"Bella, it's Edward. He thinks you are dead. Rosalie told him, why I came here." Alice said, Bella turned around and looked at my imprinter.

"Why would you...? Why didn't you let me speak to him?" She yelled.

"He didn't ask for you" He justified himself.

"I don't care!" She yelled back.

"Bella, he's going to the Volturi. He wants to die too." Alice said and she decided she wanted to go.

"He left you, Bella. He didn't want you anymore, remember?" Jacob said before Bella grabbed my arm.

"But I'm not gonna let him kill himself out of guilt." Bella said dragging me.

"Come on Jace we're going"She said looking insane. I ripped my arm away from her.

"No Bella" I said standing up for myself. She looked shock, tried grabbing my arm again,

"Bella I SAID NO!" I said stepping back.

"Why not" She said shocked.

"I am not going with you to save your vampire, YOU TRIED TO KILL ME TODAY AND THAT DAY WHEN LAURENT TRIED KILLING US. Jacob is the only one that cares" I

growled at her.

"Jacob, help me" Bella pleaded at him.

"No Bella, Jace is a person that I have to protect Jace" Jacob said wrapping his arms around me.

"Jacob you don't love Jace, the imprinting is making you love her, you love me not her" Bella yelled at him. "That's where you're wrong Bella, the imprinting was just my

wolf finding it's soulmate, I Love Jace for herself nothing else" Jacob said as I smiled, Alice got out, dragged Bella back to the car, and driving off. As soon as they were

gone, I just looked Jacob in the eyes,

"Jacob I love you" I said before feeling his hands on my face and then kissing me. Hours later Dad came home and asked where Bella was, I told him she left to go to

Italy, plus I handed him the note. Jacob was in the same room.

"Jacob" Dad said.

"Charlie" Jacob said as he shook his hand.

"I see you're dating Jace" Dad said getting a beer.

"Yes Sir" Jacob replied.

"If you hurt her" Dad began.

"Sir I wouldn't hurt her even if I had a gun pointed to me head, I would jump in front of a grenade before I hurt her at all." Jacob said causing Dad to go wide eyed. A

few days later Jacob decided he wanted to talk to Bella with me by his side.

"You stay the hell out of my head." Jake said as I sat by a tree nearby.

"Jacob..." Bella began.

"I know you have something to say to me. But I wanna say something to you first. If that's alright? Thank you. Thank you for keeping Bella alive when... ...I didn't."

Edward said looking at me.

"No, you didn't. And it wasn't for your benefit, trust me." Jacob said looking at me.

"I'm still grateful. But I'm here now. And I'm not gonna leave her side till she orders me away." Edward said causing Jacob to be serious.

"We'll see. Hey, my turn to talk. I'm here to remind you about a key point in the Treaty." Jacob said as he looked at Edward dead in the eyes.

"I haven't forgotten." Edward replied.

"What key point?" Bella asked interested.

"If any of them bites a human, the truce is over." I finally spoke up.

"But if I choose it, it has nothing to do with you or Jacob." Bella replied.

"No... No, I won't let you. You're not gonna be one of them, Bella." I glared at Edward.

"It's not up to you." She retorted. "You know what we'll do to you. I won't have choice."Jacob spoke up.

"Bella, please come." I begged her.

"Don't make me choose." She replied.

"Because it'll be him. It's always been him." Bella said looking at both of us.

"Bella" I said feeling tears go down my face.

"Goodbye, Jacob." Edward said as I walked back to my tree.

"No, you don't speak for her!" Jacob growled before charging at the vampire, only to be slammed away, then phasing only a few yards away from me. His russet fur

shaking out.

"Bella, get out of here." Edward said as he was about to fight Jacob, Bella got between them and I walked carefully.

"Stop! Stop! You can't hurt each other without hurting me." Bella stared at them one at a time, Jacob still growling at Edward, I jogged quickly up to Jacob, and looked

him in his giant eyes. He let his ears down, I petted his head, he got low so I could get on his back, I jumped on, then gripped his fur between my fingers. Then Jacob

with me on his back got back up to normal stance and began galloping through the woods. I stuck my face in the back of his neck as his paws glided through the

forest. We got back to his house, he got a pair of shorts on, and then I cried in his arms.
