I woke up to voices coming from the kitchen. I got up and wondered to the kitchen. I snoop around the corner and took a peek. Both Jake and Sam were sitting, talking

about something. I listened in a bit more and finally understood what they are talking about. They are talking about what happened with the prank. Jake is really pissed and Sam is trying to calm

him down. I kinda poked my head out, but then I turned back. As I am listening, Sam says "I know you are behind there. You can come out." Jake turned around with a confused expression and I

came out. I walked to Jake's side and stood next to him. Sam asked "Now can I get your side of the story please?" I started talking by saying "Quil and Embry picked me up and took me outside.

They said that they wanted to pull a joke on Jake by tieing me up. Before I could refuse, they tied me up and put me in the tree. I think about three hours passed and I started to fall asleep. Before

I could, a new born came out and tried to kill me. Then Seth and Jake came out. Seth killed the vampire and Jake untied me. Then, Jake kicked the guys out except for Seth." Sam shook his head

and said "I understand now. They will be punished for that." He patted my head and walked out. Jake walked me back to the bedroom and we both crawled under the covers. Jake held me tightly

against him. My face was against his bare chest. He is so warm. I fell asleep easily. I woke up in a dark room. Vlad was on one side of the room and Jake was on the other side. Both of them held

out their hands like they wanted me to pick them. My head kept on spinning and I couldn't make a decision. I woke up and I was in the bedroom. There was no sign of Jake. I got up and found a

stuff wolf that is light brown like the color of Jake's fur. I saw the tag that was with it and his name is Snoopy. I took off the tag and held him with one hand. I walked out to the kitchen and saw

my friend Ash sitting down. I ran to him and gave him a big hug. I asked "How did you get here. I missed you!" He smiled and I looked around for Pikachu, which is a Pokemon. I saw him and

grabbed him. Pikachu smiled and I let him down. I saw Jake come in and I ran to him. I gave him a big hug as a thank you. Ash said "I have to go away for a while and I wonder if you can watch

Pikachu for me." I smiled and nodded my head. He gave me a hug and left. I am so happy that I get to watch Pikachu for a while. Jake sat and played with him for a bit. I went back to the room

and got dressed. I decided to put on a pair of jean shorts, my Pikachu shirt and my black converses. I brushed my hair and I put on my charm bracelet. I grabbed my bag and ran out to Jake. He

handed me the keys and I gave him a hug and a kiss on the cheek. Before I left, Jake asked "Do you want to go out for dinner?" I said "Yea, I'll meet you at Outback." I ran out and got in his car. I

decided to go to work because I need to make some cash." I got to work and my boss and Travis was standing next to the counter. I walked in and gave Travis a hug. My boss said "I have some

major news to tell you guys." Travis and I looked at each other in curiosity in what he has to tell us. My boss says "We have some new employees!" He pointed to the back room and two guys

came out. It was Quil and Embry! I started laughing like crazy. I actually fell to the floor and started rolling! Both of them just looked at me. I said "I guess this is your punishment." They both

gave me the evil eye. I started laughing even harder. My boss says "This is Quil and Embry. They will be helping us out till the end of the school year as volunteer work." Travis looks at me and

asks "Do you know them?" I said "Yea, they are wolves too. They pulled a prank that almost got me killed and this is their punishment from Sam." Quil says "This is not funny!" I started laughing

even more! I handed them boxes of books and tapes for them to put away. While they are doing that, Travis and I are at the register, just chilling out. Travis and I took turns ringing up the

customers. By the end of closing time, I said bye to the guys and headed to dinner. I cannot wait because Outback has the best steak in the world!

I got there and Jake was in the parking lot, waiting for me. I gave him a hug and we walked in. We sat and talked for a bit about how Quil and Embry work at the store now.

Jake kept on cracking up about it. Jake and I decided to split a steak because I wasn't that hungry. We ate for a bit and then left. When I got out, I noticed that the car was missing! I started to

freak out, but Jake assured me that Seth too it back to his house. We got on his bike and rode to our usual spot. When we got there, there was a blanket with some candles and a picnic basket. It

is so romantic! He carried me over bridal style and set me on the blanket. He took out two snowballs. One is cherry and one is ice cream flavor. We both shared because those are out two favorite

flavors. When we were done, we walked on the beach. I have a feeling like he likes me or something like that, but I am not sure. We stopped and looked out to the ocean. Jake held me by my waist

and pulled me closer. I heard Jake start to talk. He said "There is something that I would like to tell you. But I don't know how you would feel." I was right! He likes me. I guess right now is the

best time to admit our feelings to each other. He said "I love you and I always have ever since I met you when you moved here." I am kinda in shock, but I feel the same way. He leaned in and

kissed me! Like really kissed me! His lips are so soft and so warm when he touches mine. He stopped for a minute, but I kissed him back. When I stopped, I said "I feel the same way. I always

have." We went back to kissing for a bit longer. He picked me up and carried me bridal style to the bike. We got on and headed back to the house. I held on to his waist and put my head on his

back. I fell asleep for a bit, but I woke up when he got off and my head fell to the seat. I yelled "Oww! That hurt!" Jake laughed and he gave me a piggy back ride inside. When I got in, everyone

was playing with Pikachu. He was enjoying the attention. Seth said that he wanted to take him home, and I allowed him to. I went to the bedroom and laid down. My head really hurts from hitting

it. I laid down and cuddled with Snoopy and I fell asleep. I guess the benedryl helped! I fell into a deep sleep. I guess I will be like this for a while...

I woke up and I looked out the window. All of the guys were playing football. I jumped up and put on a pair of basketball shorts and my converses. I threw my hair up in a

pony tail and ran out. I joined a team and quickly got in the action. It feels so good getting out there and getting dirty. In the end, my team won, as usual because of me. I gave everyone a high

five and went back in. I saw Jake outside and I walked over to him. He is all dirty, like I am. I said "Good game. You did good out there." He said "Same to you miss sunshine." I laughed and kissed

him. We walked back in with him and grabbed a bite to eat. When we were done, we sat and watched some T.V.. As we were chilling, the door bell rung. Jake got up and answered it. I didn't turn

around to see who it was, but it is a woman's voice. I heard Jake call my name and I turned around, and it is my mom. I got up and walked over. I gave her a big hug and she handed me a bag of

stuff. She said "This is from your sisters. They miss you. Do you want to come over for dinner tomorrow?" I shook my head and I gave her a hug goodbye. As she is walking out, she hands me a

package. She says "This was at the house for you." I took it and opened it. It is my dads pocket watch. It has a note with it. I started to read it and it says "Your old man left this for you on his

death bed. It was a pleasure killing him. -Mandy" I started to cry. I cannot believe that Mandy killed him! Jake looked at the note and gasped. He showed it to everyone. My mom started to cry and

the room got quite. I took the watch and ran out. I changed into my wolf form and ran. I ran as fast as I could. I can only go to one house and that is Sam's.

I got there and Sam is greeting me. I changed back. I am still crying. He asks "What happened?" I handed him my dads pocket watch. He gasped and said "Oh no, don't tell

me." I shook my head and said "It was Mandy." He shook his head and brought me inside. Emily had coffee and some cookies made for us. She was trying to comfort me, while Sam looked at the

note. He pulled me over and he made me look at the note. There was a secret message written under it. I was able to decode it. It said "Be careful, Mandy is coming to kill you." I stood in shock.

Sam read the note. We both changed into wolf form and ran to Jake's house.

When we got back to the house, we quickly changed back and ran in. We are so out of breath! When I caught my breath, everyone was looking at us. I said "There is a

secret message written into the note. It's from Vlad. It says that Mandy is coming to kill me." Sam continued by saying "Everyone will be on high patrol around here. Three will be out at a time and

someone will be with Alice at all times. You got it?" Everyone shook their heads and ran out. Sam, Jake, Seth and I stayed inside. Sam told Seth to join the patrol and he ran out. Sam went with

him too. I called my sisters and told them about it. I have to get home now. Before I was able to run out, Jake pulled my arm back and said "You are not going. I have to protect you." I am angry!

Why cannot I protect my own family. Mandy will most likely go after them first in revenge. I pushed Jake back and ran out. I jumped onto the bike and ran off. Now this is getting personal!

I finally got to the house and my sisters were on patrol. Mom was home, watching the house. I ran in and gave her a hug. I asked "Are you okay?" She shook her head

and she made me some coffee. I sat on the porch and watched over things. Before I went back in the house, Jake ran out in wolf form. Sam followed suit. I greeted them as they changed back to

their regular form. While Sam talked to my mom, Jake and I sat on the porch. I kept on looking at my dads pocket watch that was sent to me. Jake put his hand on my arm and started to rub it.

He said "Everything will be okay, trust me. I will protect you, always." I leaned over and gave him a kiss on the cheek. He kissed me back as a thank you. We sat on the porch for a bit, when Sam

came out. He said "You and Jake will stay here to protect the house for tonight. Everyone else is on high patrol. Be careful you two. I will come back tomorrow morning for a report." We both

nodded and sat back down. We sat on the porch for a couple more hours. I actually started to fall asleep. I leaned over on Jake's body. He asked "Are you getting sleepy?" I shook my head no and

then he gave me a look like I am lieing. I shook my head yes. He carried me in and to my room. He grabbed me some pajamas and placed them on the bed. He turned around so I could get

changed. I said "I don't really care if you see." He turned back around with a confused expression on his face. His eyes opened wide when he saw me take off my shorts. I need to really teach him

about the body of a woman! Gosh! After I was done, I grabbed his hand and place it on one of my boobs. I bet you this will scare him. And it did! He took his hand off quickly and said "Why did you

do that?" I said "I thought it would be your first lesson about a girls body." He scratched his head in confusion. I ignored it and crawled into bed. Jake followed suit. He held me tight against his

chest. It is so warm. I fell asleep easily. It seems like I always fall asleep that way. I feel like I am on a fluffy cloud, floating around in the sky. Then, I saw Jake on one cloud and Vlad on the other.

They both are running towards me, but they fall! I looked down to see where they were, but all I can see is Mandy coming up. She attacked me and I fell into another black hole. I could see my

past all over again. It is very scary! I jumped up and I noticed that I am on one of the wolves back. I am on Jake! He said "Good thing you woke up. We just got home." I looked up and saw that

we are back at Jake's house. It feels good to be back, especially with all of the guys.

I got off of Jake's back and ran inside. I jumped on the sofa and then the guys jumped on me! It is really funny. I threw them off and they all hit the wall. I guess that I have

more strength then I thought I had. I saw all of the guys run outside to play football, and I joined them. It is going to be an awesome game because it is raining! I grabbed my football and ran out.

We divided into teams. Seth, Jake, Quil and Jared are on one team. Embry, Sam,Paul and I are on another team. This is going to get interesting.

We played for about three hours and my team won as usual! I cannot believe Sam is that great of a football player! He surprised me! We wrestled around for a bit, when I

started to get light headed. Everything got blurry and I got dizzy. I fell to the ground. Sam ran to me, but I could not see. I passed out on the ground. I guess it is from playing the rain. I guess

that's what I deserve!

I woke up to Jake putting a hot rag on myhead. Everyone watched me to see if I was okay. I am still feeling a bit dizzy, but I will get over it. I heard Jake say "Alice, are you

awake?" I dazed up at him and he smiled. He carried me into the bathroom where there was a bath ready for me. I still don't have the strength to move my body, and Jake knew that. He sat me

on the side of the sink and started to take my clothes off for me. I guess he is not afraid to see me naked anymore!

He placed me in the bath and started to pour water on my back. It feels so good! I started to fall asleep for a bit, nut Jake woke me up by splashing water in my face. He is

so mean sometimes! He got me up and dried me off. He took off his shirt and handed it to me. I don't know why he is making me wear his shirt, but I don't mind at all. His shirt is like a football

jersey and it is red. It has the number 12 on it and his name on the back. I slipped it over me and walked out. All of the guys were waiting for me at the door, to see if I am okay. It is really funny

because Seth, Quil and Embry fell to the floor when I pushed the door open. Jake stared at them and they ran away. Jake carried me to the room and laid me down on the bed. He tucked me in and

laid down next to me. He started to play with my hair for a bit, then he started to kiss my neck and tickle my ear. It started to get a little bit weird, but I like it. I turned around and I kissed him.

We made out for a bit till Jake stopped. I said "Is something wrong? Did I do something wrong?" He shook his head and said "No, you did nothing wrong. I think that we should wait till the guys

are gone, that's all." I sunk back down in the covers. I started to fall asleep, when I felt Jake pull me close to him. I fell asleep right after he did that. That was the best make out session ever!
