Chapter 6

"Oh, he's getting my stuff from the car." Leah replied, looking back at where she'd come from. I could hear Ryan outside, trying to get all the bags.

"The new Mercedes Benz SL 600?!" Edward asked like a little boy on Christmas morning. As he asked this, he actually looked like a seventeen year old.

"Yup, the very one!" Leah said with a wide grin.

Edward was gone before she had even finished her sentence. I shook my head, as I watched him run at vampire speed to the drive way.

"Ed-AY!" Ryan bellowed. He was the only one who was allowed to call him that. Not even Emmett could, and Emmett was his best friend and his favorite brother.

"Hey Ryan, how've you been?" Edward asked him enthusiastically.

"Awesome. Whatta 'bout you and the beautiful Bella?" Ryan asked.

"Wonderful, thanks for asking." Edward answered him calmly. I was surprised, again. Edward usually didn't like it when humans called me beautiful or gorgeous.

"So Bella," Leah said, turning to me. "How are Nessie and Jake?"

I stopped listening to Edward and Ryan and turned my attention to Leah. "Oh, they're great." I said, trying to convince myself this was true.

She didn't buy it.

"Spill." She demanded. Right then Alice was in her face telling her all about Nahuel and the stupid matches he and Jake had against each other.

"Wow." Was all Leah had said after words, taking it all in. She knew Jake just as well as I did, maybe even more, since she and Jake had gotten closer over the years.

"Yeah." Alice sighed.

"So how do you feel about all this?" she asked, turning her attention to me.

I was taken aback. I wasn't really sure how I felt about this, two boys fighting over my daughter, every mother's dream. I didn't think I had a say in the matter at all, I tried my best to stay out of Nessie's life. But if this gets any worse, and it starts hurting her, I'll have to put my foot down. Of course, I want her to choose Jake. He's my best friend, almost like my son.

"I'm not really sure." I told her truthfully.

"Do you approve of both boys?" Leah asked me with a sly grin.

"Of course I do! Jake's my best friend, and Nahuel's really sweet." I told her.

"I think it'd be better for her if she chose Nahuel." Alice said.

I looked at her with my eyebrows raised.

"Well," she started "I just think that he's better suited for her. And maybe they could have kids together…" She trailed off when she saw my expression.

"I think you guys should just let her choose." Leah said with a sigh.

"I agree." I said to her. "But I'm leaning towards Jacob. He's always been there for us. I really think he could take care of her."

Just then I heard the whooshing of the leaves and trees. The next second, Edward was at my side while Alice gasped.

"What is it?!" Jasper exclaimed.

"Trouble." Edward and Alice said at the same time as Nahuel and Jake came through the trees with panic stricken eyes.

"How could have let this happen?!" Edward scolded Jake when he came to a stop in front of us. Inside the house, I could hear Ryan turn on the TV.

"I…I didn't mean to! It was an accident! Besides, Nahuel did some damage too!" Jake stammered.

"Did not!" Nahuel exclaimed. "You were the ones they saw. It's your fault!"

"What do you mean it's my fault?!" Jacob screamed. "If you hadn't come here in the first place, none of this would've happened!"

"WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?!" I screamed. Edward put a soothing arm around my waist.

"They got seen by humans." He explained to me in a low voice.

I gasped. "What? How? Where?" I asked.

"On our way to Alaska." Nahuel said to me, looking down at the ground.

"Bells, I swear I didn't even smell them until it was too late." Jake tried to explain. "We were running so fast, I don't even know how they got up there, I'm so sorry!"

"How did they see you?" Carlisle asked calmly.

"We were running miles away from the trial," Nahuel started "And I guess some humans were there too, why, I have no idea. But they were. When they saw us, they freaked." Jake finished for him.

Just then I heard tires pulling up.

Nessie and Rose were home.
