I peered out ahead of me, trying to see the big surprise. Jake must have noticed what I was doing because he touched my shoulder and told me to look up. It was cloudy out so I knew I wouldn't see anything, but I obliged. I tilted my head skyward and saw stars. The sky was clear here. I took a step forward.

"Jake, where are we?" I asked him, mystified.

"We are at the beach." he said simply.

The beach. Wow. I wasn't even able to tell where the water started because the night was so black and calm. We were a long way from home. All the way in LaPush. Odd, we weren't walking for very long. I was confused, and tried to figure everything out. As always, Jacob was in tune with my thoughts.

"Bella, why are you confused? You do know the water has more than one shore, right?" He asked me, taking my hand, but I pulled my hand away from his.

"Oh, right of course." I almost laughed at my stupidity. I opened my mouth to say something witty when the sky lit up. I took in a quick breath and starting punching Jake in the shoulder rapidly.

"Jake! Look! The sky! Its so, so... pretty" My voice trailed off as I gazed at the sky.

Ribbons of light were moving through the sky. Brilliant blues and purples and greens and the occasional red danced above me, mixing with the stars. Never before had I seen such a sight. I felt Jacob grasp my hand again, and this time I allowed it. Everything was so beautiful. Together we gazed as the amazing show started to fade from the sky and I found myself smiling for the first time in months.

"C'mon, its time we went home." Jacob said when the lights disappeared completely.

I didn't want to leave but I nodded my head and followed him anyways. Jacob patiently waited for me to scramble up the sandy slope. Silently, he held a thicket of brush aside and allowed me to climb over the cemetery fence. When we were safely inside the cemetery I took in a deep breath.

"Does anyone else know about that part of the beach?" I asked Jacob.

"Not as far as I know, I usually go there by myself when I want to escape everyone in LaPush." he responded.

I nodded still a little confused.

"And how exactly do you make to Forks, you don't have your license."

He laughed. Why is that boy always laughing? It makes me seem so... different in comparison. I was beginning to envy Jacob, I wished that I could be happy all the time and laugh as easily.

"Just because I don't have my license doesn't mean I sit home all the time." he said lightly.

"Jake...if you get caught you cou-." This time it was Jacob who cut me off.

"Bella, Bella, Bella, have a little faith. No offense or anything but it isn't exactly hard to avoid the police in Forks."

I couldn't argue with that, I knew it was true.

"Whatever Jake, just take me home now. I'm so tired."

I saw Jake smile in the glow of the street lights. Again, he took my hand and led me down the street. When we got to my back door I did something that surprised both of us. I gave Jake a hug.

"Thanks Jacob, that was incredible. I've never seen anything more incredible in my life."

I couldn't say beautiful, because nothing could compare with his beauty, but he left me and that opinion didn't need to be said aloud.

"No problem Bella. I'll see you later."

"Bye, Jake."

As silently as I could, I made my way back into my room. I really was tired as I crawled into bed. The clock said 2:00am, which was late, but I was used to staying up later, crying. I attempted to stifle a yawn but was unsuccessful. I closed my eyes and slept peacefully for the first night in a long time.

Okay guys, I know this chapter sucks, but I am going to try and rewrite it.

If you have any ideas on how to make it better let me know.

P.S. incase anyone does not know, what Jacob showed Bella at the beach was the Northern Lights. (Aurora Borealis) If you have not seen it before, I pity you, it is absolutely incredible.
