Chapter 2

Bella decided to take me to the reservation to visit her old friend Jacob Black and his pack as she liked to call them.

I smiled.

I had just finished a treatment and was tired, but Bella really wanted to go,

What Bella didn't know is that it was my last treatment, the treatments were not working.

I was told I had one year left to live.

I sighed and thought of my family and Bella, she really wanted to go.

So I pushed for her.

I did not feel good at all, but I did it for her.

We pulled up to the house,

And Bella got out.

I followed.

A guy with black hair, no shirt and a tribal tattoo on his shoulder came out.

He looked surprised to see me.

"Bella, are you picking up strays again, we talked about this." He said

I smiled.

"I'm Kara swan." I Said, "Bella's cousin." I finished.

He smiled.

"Jacob Black, but everyone calls me Jake. We are just about to go cliff diving, wanna come?" he asked.

Bella looked at me with pleading eyes.

I couldn't say no.

"I won't swim, but I'll watch." I said.

Bella nodded knowingly.

Jacob looked between the two of us.

"ok." He said with a questioning gaze.

I knew the truth would come out sooner or later, but I just didn't want to be known as cancer girl.

We walked to the cliffs to see a bunch of other guys running and jumping.

I sat on a rock, and watched.

Bella came over to me.

"You ok if I go?" she asked.

I smiled.

"Of course, go have fun, I'll just have fun watching." I Said.

Bella nodded.

Jake came over to me with a couple of his friends.

"Kara, this is Embry, Quill, Leah, Jared, Paul, and Sam." He said.

I looked to everyone and said Hello, but stopped when I reached Paul's eyes.

Our eyes locked and it was as if the world stopped for a second.

I shook it off and everyone left to jump, except Paul.

"So, are you new here?" he asked.

I smiled.

"Yeah, I am. I moved to Forks, with Bella and my uncle Charlie." I said.

Paul nodded.

"It's a nice place. I grew up here, and love it." He said.

I smiled.

"Are you going to dive?" he asked.

I quickly shook my head.

"No, I am not. I am just going to watch." I said.

Paul looked at me for a moment, almost like he was trying to figure me out.

"You have to try this!" yelled Jacob to me.

I shook my head.

"No, I'm good." I Said.

I really wanted to, but I was not allowed to due to my treatments, and my wig would fall off and get wet, and everyone would know me as cancer girl.

Jacob came towards me, he pulled my hands up.

I was now standing and moving towards the rocks.

"NO JACOB! I CAN'T!" I said.

Paul growled…wait growled.

"LET ME GO JACOB, I CAN'T!" I said.

Jacob kept pulling me and I looked for Bella but didn't see her.

She must have just jumped and was coming up again.

I whimpered in pain as Jacob pulled my arms.

I was hurting and I didn't know what to do.

I started to cry.

"NO, PLEASE NO!" I shouted.

Suddenly, there were two strong arms around me, and Jacob was shoved off the cliff, but not before he turned into a big wolf.

I screamed.

"WHAT IS THAT!?" I screamed as I watch the wolf fall into the water.

"It's ok, I got you, and he is fine!" I heard Paul's voice.

I felt my knees go weak, and I was soon in Paul's arms, bridal style.

"DUDE! SHE'S IN SHOCK!" yelled Embry

"CALL SAM! TELL HIM WHAT HAPPENED, AND I'M TAKING HER BACK TO THE HOUSE TO TALK HER DOWN!" Yelled Paul.

"WHAT HAPPENED?!" she yelled.

"IS SHE OK?!" she asked.

Paul nodded.

I was in shock, I couldn't move, and I felt my eyes close in exhaustion.

He carried me down the mountain, where a frustrated Bella came running to us.

"She's fine, Jacob tried to get her to jump and then shifted when I pushed him away, I think she's just in shock." He said.

"Here, give her to me, I'll take her home." She said.

Paul's grip tightened on me, "NO! I got her." He said.

I opened my eyes and looked at Bella.

Bella looked at Paul with a questioning look then suddenly, she had a look of understanding.

"PAUL! You hurt her, you die!" she said.

Paul nodded.

"I'm taking her back to the house to talk." He said.

"Make sure she drinks water. She needs it after today."

Paul looked confused.

"Why would she need water?" he asked.

Bella sighed and looked at me. I nodded.

He was going to find out.

Bella turned to Paul.

"Because she has cancer and she had a very hard treatment today." She said.

I felt Paul stiffen.

"You brought her to cliff jump with cancer, knowing she wasn't feeling good?" he asked.

Bella looked guilty.

Paul growled.

I looked at him with wide eyes.

"It's ok baby girl. I got you. You are safe." He said to me in a reassuring way.

I nodded and snuggled into him.

"Bella, I want to go with Paul. I'll be fine, you go enjoy yourself." I Said.

Bella nodded.

"Ok." She said.

"If you need me call me, on my cell, and I'll take you home." She said.

I nodded and soon Paul was taking me back to his place to talk.

I slowly felt sleep coming as Paul carried me.

"Sleep, I got you." He said.

My eyes closed, but not before I heard Paul's word.

"Poor Baby girl, I'm going to take care of you forever." He said.

I drifted off to sleep.
