thanks so much for your great response!! It's made my day that people around the world have given me some of their time to read my fanfiction!

I suppose you must be wondering where Emmett, Jasper, Alice and Rosalie are? They've been left out for a reason which you'll find out in time. the whole point of this is to keep you guessing, so certain things are definitely in there and excluded for reasons.

You guys seemed confused about whats going on! sorry if i dont make sense! At the moment, all you know is someone has died, and I haven't mentioned who. This is on purpose, to keep you guessing. Some things won't make sense, but all will be revealed in time!

I woke up not remembering how I got to the perfectly neat bed I was lying on. It was a sunny day, and my room illuminated with every ray of light shining through it from the clear glass wall. I could hear Jacob's tired heartbeat outside my room, and the thought of him worrying about me made me smile in the worst circumstances.

"I'm awake," I mumbled in the quietest of voices, knowing he could've heard me get up anyway.

With that, the door slowly swung open, and Jacob stumbled into the room and sat onto my bed. He looked extremely tired, this time he would be convincing for his real 30-something "Yesterday was rough, are you ok?"

"I'm fine," I lied, "Really, stop worrying about me. Just sleep, I'll come and get you later."

I grabbed his arm and pulled him down so he was lying in the centre of my bed. It still wasn't big enough, Jacob's feet dangled off the edges.

I reluctantly got ready for the day, using the bathroom Carlisle had built in for me. I had such a great life; I just couldn't believe I was still in a dodgy mood.

I found Jacob snoring away, not having moved at all since I had left him. I honestly did not want to leave this room, everything inside was perfect.

I gently sat down at the head of the bed, watching Jacob. He must've sensed me there, because just as I sat comfortably, he opened his eyes open and jumped up wearily.

"Go back to sleep," I whispered, curling into a ball and pulling the blanket over my knees.

"I can't" he grumbled, "You're watching me."

I couldn't help but laugh. Jacob was wise beyond his years, amazingly special, yet some aspects of him were nothing more than child-like.

I fell forward to rest my head against his chest, listening to his fluttering heartbeats react towards me. They were so frantic it was adorable.



"Fine," I sighed, "We'll both go to sleep."

I was sure I was pushing it, but I honestly didn't care. At the precise moment, all my pain and worries evaporated. I closed my eyes and let my thoughts take over me, Jacob sharing every one of them. He rested his hand on my shoulder lightly, and finally fell asleep.

I couldn't sleep throughout. It was too distracting having Jacob by my side at such a close proximity. I settled with watching him for a good four hours until my neck started craning under the pressure of his lazy hand on my shoulder.

Eventually, my thoughts on the recent death resurfaced, and I couldn't deal with it at this moment. I abruptly removed contact with Jacob, sparing him from my depressing thoughts.

"Jacob," I whispered, stopping myself from hitting him.

"...Yes?" He mumbled, out of it.

"Could you take me somewhere?" I touched him for the slightest second, telling him exactly where I wanted to go, and then distanced myself so my thoughts couldn't be leaked.

He hesitated, sensing my distant attitude, "Sure. But...are you sure?"

"Of course I am. What do you mean, am I sure?"

"What I meant was, Are you ok?" He muttered, "I know something is up, tell me."

At that point I knew exactly what he'd do, but I was quicker. I turned around, jumped out of bed and opened the window in lightning speed. I was on the third floor, but I was confident I could make it. Without another second's thought, I jumped out and ran as fast as my legs could take me.

I was in the silent heart of the forest for what must've been less than minutes, when I heard a stealthy run approach me. I kept going, not caring at all what Jacob thought; just right now he couldn't touch me.



I convinced myself I was doing this for the better, but seeing Jacob tired to keep up with me was painful. But it didn't matter, I was human to an extent, and he knew that. Eventually I would tire out and he'd inevitably touch me. I just hoped that we got to the gravesite before that happened.

I was close now, I could smell the deceased rotting below. I ran past everything in a blur, and pushed through the gate.

"Forever a Cullen"

Her gravestone was encrypted with beautiful gothic font, and every sentence had a double meaning that only we in the know would understand.

"Ness!" Jacob called frantically behind me.

"I honestly can't believe it," I mumbled to myself in shock, "She was beside me. Yet I let her jumped in front to protect me. It was all about me. All this, is purely my fault. All the pain and destruction could've been preventable, if only I had been the one."

I clutched onto myself.

"Ness, it is-- "

"Everyone. Jasper is gone, he left all because of me. Emmett can't even look into my eyes anymore. Carlisle, Bella? Edward? They all cannot bear the sight of me."

This time Jacob didn't listen. He stood right in front of me, blocking my vision of her grave. I tried to push past him, but he grabbed me in a giant hug.

"Let go Jacob." I asked, my voice still distant. He was speaking loudly, almost yelling, yet my thoughts were drowning him out.

He was still talking, but all I could focus on was the grave right in front of me. I didn't want to, but I used my full grip and pulled his arms away from my back. I heard a shattering crack and guilt strings were pulling against me. I stared at the grave, until something blurry caught 

my eye. It was definitely a vampire, something so inexplicably fast couldn't be animal or man. I stared into the forest, but my half-human vision was no way need advanced enough to catch the thing out there. It was moving swiftly though, coming right towards us.

"Someone's coming," I whispered, voice full of panic.

I stood protectively in front of Jacob, while his yelps of pain were suddenly louder and louder.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry," I kept repeating, but everything still felt like a dream, like I was on the verge of waking up, and the reality would never set in.

"It's, no-nothing," he stumbled, breathless. Ok, now I really did feel bad. After all that I did to him, he was still not faulting me?

Was there something wrong with him?

I ripped off the sweater I was wearing and tied it around Jacob's arm. Hopefully he'd heal straight for once, since I hurt him, I thought it'd be good to spare him the pain of re-breaking those bones if they healed improperly.

With a sudden swift movement, a branch was crushed under the mysterious person's weight, and then they finally revealed themselves.

It was silent, and I had been shocked speechless.

"Holy cow," was all Jacob could say.

Well that was it. There are more clues to keep you up at night about lol. Chapter four will be up next week or so, so please stay tuned!
