Soo... I kinda got distracted so this is later than I thought, but hey, That's the life of a college student... Anyways: Characters=Not mine, Plot=Mine, Landon and Lianna=kinda mine(it's a not so different version of the names of the kids they're modeled after)


It's starting to seem like if I dream at all, it's a nightmare. And always with that stupid giant wolf. This time, I was alone in the woods walking around- something I would never actually do. I would probably trip on a tree root and bust my head open on a rock- I was desperately looking for something. I just needed to find it, but exactly what it was I had no idea. And there he was right in front of me. The wolf. I was not scared at first. I followed it. And after a minute we were at a meadow. It was beautiful. I felt a strange comfort that let me know that this was what I was looking for. Then I saw a mountain lion. It remained oddly still until the wolf began to approach it. And then I was terrified. The monstrous wolf was going to destroy the beautiful lion, but instead the wolf turned and got in position to attack me. Then the alarm clock pulled me from yet another nightmare.

It was Monday and Landon and Lianna needed to get ready for school. I woke them up, made a quick breakfast and sent them to get ready for school. I made sure their homework was done and took them to school. Normally they take the bus but I've never had to get two kids ready for school before so we were running a bit late.

Since they were in school, I decided I might as well go home. I needed to check on my house since it had been empty since the morning and because Jake doesn't always clean up after himself.

I drove up to the house and was surprised to see Jacob's car in the driveway. I thought he had said he was going back to La Push last night? Why would he not tell me that he was gonna come back here? Why is he not at work? I pulled up behind him and parked. I got out, locked the truck, and went inside with questions still going through my head.

What I saw when I walked in was not what I suspected I figured there would be a mess, none. I figured he had a day off and would be in bed the whole time, He had just overslept though and was running out the door before he could explain anything. Oh well, I'd just have to ask later. I went up to my room to get settled and maybe sleep a bit, but of course, there had to be a mess somewhere. There were a few cups and a plate on the table by his side of the bed and he hadn't fixed it. I cleaned up and decided to write for a while. My manuscript wasn't due for a few months, and I usually write at the last minute, but I felt like writing. This book had children in it and Landon and Lianna put me in a writing mood. I went to my little home office and typed until it was time to go get the kids from school.

Jake POV

I told Bella I was going back to La Push last night to my father's house, and at first I had planned to, but Leah called and said Sam had come over to the apartment her and her cousin shared and she really hadn't felt like being there. I understood and since I had a key to a place she could stay, I figured we could just go to forks for the night instead.

I woke up around nine and looked around. Where was Leah? Then I noticed a note on the bed. She went to the shop early. That made me smile. I could go see her. I work there. We could take a break and… I should get up and get ready. I might call Bella when I get there. Gotta call her from work sometime so she thinks I'm there all the time I say I am. Working crazy hours and letting her hear the tools and sounds of the shop that one night was the best decision I ever made. I got paid overtime to hang out with Leah. And an excuse to see her outside shop hours. I wonder why she doesn't want me to leave Bella yet. She says she doesn't want it to be obvious to Sam that she cheated on him with me, but they were over months ago. Turns out he was cheating on her too anyways. And with her own cousin. That's pretty shameless for both of them. I got up and moved Leah's glass to my side of the room, Bella could come home and see after all and It's not like I want to hurt her. There's just nothing left between us since I met Leah. I hopped in the shower and got ready for work.

When I got out and was on my way downstairs, I heard someone in the opening the door. It could only be one person. I quickly checked the bedroom for any signs of last nights activities. When I was satisfied that there weren't any, I headed down as if I were running late, putting on a little show.

Bella POV

I picked up the kids form school and we went to the library Landon found a book that he liked right away and was reading the whole time. He was so into the book it was like he wasn't even there. Rose and I were both like that when we were his age. Lianna on the other hand kinda just ran around for a while until the librarian began to read aloud a popular new children's book. She settled down after that and stayed there until it was time to go listening to the end and then reading it again for herself.

We left the library and had to rush home to make it in time for the piano lesson. I hadn't met the teacher and I didn't want to be late and look careless, but it seemed like that would be exactly what happened.

As soon as I got the kids coats put away the doorbell rang. I made a mental note to leave a little earlier on Friday.

When I opened the door I was shocked at what I saw. I was expecting a petite lady, someone kinda old and soft spoken. The piano teacher was a man a bit older than I and a quite handsome one at that. He had an interesting red tone in his brown hair, it was almost bronze looking. His eyes were a nice green, which has always been my favorite color for eyes. His nose was very straight . His full lips were a bit feminine in their redness but, his jaw was manly and angular. He cleared his throat

"umm… Hello, my name is Edward, I'm the Piano Teacher."

"Oh umm, Yeah I'm Bella, come in." Such an eloquent response, I bet he can really tell I write for a living.

As soon as he was in the door, Lianna was in his arms giving him a hug. That girl is just so friendly and energetic.

We all made our way over to the piano. It was just a simple upright, but I know Rose would love to have a grand piano some day. Landon was already sitting down although he didn't seem quite as excited as his sister.

"So," I said while trying to work on forming some actual words. "What do Rose and Em usually do while you're here?" That's a good one, that way I'll know whether to call Jake and pretend that I didn't just check out this man who teaches piano, or watch him now and do that later.

"Umm," he was turning a little red and looked like he couldn't find the words he was looking to say, "they usually umm… they spend some… alone time upstairs." I should have expected that from them. With as much "alone time" as they spend, it surprising they only have two kids.

"Oh… well, I guess I'm not needed then. I think I'm gonna run home for a bit. I'll be back in a while." I figured since he's here for two hours, I might as well make use of this free time and check on my house.


Yay another chapter, and not even a month passed! *sarcasm over* Im gonna TRY to get a steady update schedule going... wish me luck

until next time
