I hated saying goodbye to Edward. It broke my heart in ways that I couldn't begin to describe. I fixed my gaze on Charlie hoping that I could contain my sadness. My father approached me slowly keeping his gaze fixated on Edward.

"Be safe," Edward whispered quickly before he began to walk away. Charlie took my bag from my hands and gave me a look of pure disgust.

"Goodbye Edward," he said glaring at the beautiful boy.

"Goodbye Chief Swan," Edward said cordially as he turned around. "Have a safe trip." Edward then looked at me one last time and quickly winked. My heart began to pound through my chest and my face lit up like a Christmas tree.

"Bella," Charlie said as he shook my arm. "Bella answer me!"

"Wait…huh," I said with confusion. "Did you say something dad?" It seemed so ridiculous that anyone could hold this much power over me, I could hardly concentrate.

"What was Edward doing with you Bella," Charlie practically growled. "I thought I told you to stay away from that boy."

"Dad what are you talking about," I asked him. "Edward isn't a bad person. In fact he's rather….amazing." Amazing was an understatement to say the least, but I found that no word could do Edward just.

"Snap out of it Bella," Charlie snapped. "This boy is a bad influence on you. I don't want you to ever see him again, do you understand me?"

"Charlie no," I retorted. "No, you can't make me stay away from him. Edward is….he's my friend. I need him."

"Don't worry Bellsy," I heard a fowl voice say. Before I knew it Mike Newton was standing right next to me. He slid his arms around my shoulders and attempted to hug me. "You've still got me as a friend. Besides, Charlie's right, Edward is bad news."

"That's better," Charlie beamed. "What do you say Mike? How about we load up the Cruiser?"

"Of course Chief Swan," Mike cackled. "I'll be right back Bella, don't you worry."

"Take your time," I said under my breath. Unfortunately Charlie heard me causing him to shoot a glare in my direction.

"Be nice," he hissed. Ten minutes later the old police cruiser was filled to the brim with several bags, most of which were Mike's.

"I couldn't leave anything behind," he laughed as Charlie attempted to close the lid of the cruiser. It repulsed me that Mike needed so much baggage. He was more of a girl than I was.

The ride to La Push was nearly unbearable. Mike insisted on sitting in the back of the cruiser with me. He also insisted upon touching me every time he saw an opportunity. By the time we made it to the Black's house I felt the need to take a flea dip.

"Billy," Charlie smiled as he exited the car.

"Hey there Charlie," the man in the wheel cheer said. He had charcoal colored hair and eyes to match.

"Billy you remember Bella right," Charlie said as I approached him.

"Of course," Billy smiled widely. "It's good to see you again Bella. It's been far too long." I smiled politely unsure of what to say.

"I'm Mike Newton," Mike said as he pushed past me. "I'm Bella's boyfriend."

"No he isn't," I said quickly.

"Don't be like that sweetie," Mike said as he kissed my cheek. I wanted to throw up. Who did he think he was?

"Awww," Charlie said as he glowed with pride. "Don't they make a cute couple Billy?"

"Sure, sure," Billy said, "real cute couple." How could they say that? Could they not see that I completely despised the fowl creature that hovered beside me?

"Dad," a female voice said. "Are they here yet?"

"Rachel," Charlie shouted. "Is that you?" A tall girl with the same hair and eyes as Billy came out of the house. I hardly recognized her. She had changed so much since the last time I saw her.

"Charlie," she said happily. "I thought I heard you." The girl walked towards the direction of her father and gave him a peck on the cheek. "And this must be Bella. It's so good to see you!"

"You too," I said forcing a smile.

"Rebecca should be here shortly," she told us. "She's just talking to her fiancée."

"Fiancée," I said with a surprised tone. "She's engaged?"

"Yeah," Rachel laughed. "She plans to move to Hawaii in a couple of months."

"That could be us soon," Mike crooned in my ear. I stepped on his toe causing him to yelp in pain.

"Bella," Charlie said in a harsh tone.

"Sorry dad," I said stepping away from the imbecile. "It was an accident." Billy laughed at this causing me to laugh as well. Mike continued to hobble around in pain as Charlie tried to comfort him.

"Dad," I heard a deep voice say as a tall boy approached us.

"Jacob," Billy said with a look of pride in his eye. As the boy moved closer to us I couldn't help but notice how attractive he was. His skin was beautiful, silky and russet-colored; his eyes were dark, set deep above the high planes of his cheek bones. His chin was slightly round, indicating that he still hadn't passed puberty but he was still very good looking.

I saw Mike turn rigid as he starred at Jacob through the corner of his eye. He moved closer to me and once again put his arm around my shoulder.

"Charlie," Jacob said holding out his hand. "It's good to see you." Charlie shook his hand in return.

"This is my daughter Bella," Charlie said. "You two haven't met yet. Bella hasn't lived here for quite some time now."

"So I see," Jacob said grabbing my hand. "If I had met you before I would have remembered you, I could never forget such a pretty face." I couldn't help but blush at his words.

"I'm Bella's boyfriend," Mike blurted out.

"Sure you are," Jacob scoffed. I couldn't help but laugh once more. At least someone recognized Mike for who he really was.

"BELLA," I heard someone screech. "Oh it really is you!" Before I knew it I was encased in a pair of arms that I didn't recognize.

"Easy Rebecca," Jacob said taking in my shocked expression. "She just got here. We don't want to scare her off yet."

"Sorry," the girl apologized. She looked just like her sister except she had longer legs and shorter hair. "I just can't believe that you're here." Charlie released me to the custody of Rachel and Rebecca while Jacob was forced to show Mike around the reservation.

Once again I found myself going completely crazy. Bella seemed so far away from me. I hated the fact that she was alone with them while I was forced to stay here. I continued to pace back and forth around the woods anxiously just waiting for her to call. Once I felt my cell phone begin to vibrate I almost leaped with joy.

"Hello," I practically yelled.

"Edward," Alice's voice rang.

"What do you want Alice," I grumbled. "I'm waiting for Bella to call." There was a long pause signifying that something was wrong. "What is it Alice?"

"It's Bella," she said nervously.

"What happened," I asked in a blind panic. "Is she hurt? Is she sick? Is she lost? Where is she?"

"I don't know," she said trying to control the level of her voice. "She just disappeared. Her future seemed a little spotty at first but then it just disappeared. " I felt the rage begin to ignite within me. I knew I should have forced Bella to stay here. What was I thinking allowing her to go?

"What do you mean she just disappeared," I asked becoming enraged. When it came to Alice's vision people only disappeared when they died. Their futures were erased, everything was erased.

"I…I don't know Edward," Alice cried. "I don't know what happened. She didn't appear to be in any danger but..."

"I'm going to find her Alice," I said cutting her off. "I'm going to find Bella and I'm going to bring her home."

"Edward no," Alice screamed, but it was too late. I was already past the boundary line. I was going to took to make her safe again.

After spending an hour on the beach Rachel and Rebecca grew bored. They wanted to go shopping and take me along but I told them I preferred to stay here. The beach was so secluded. Everything was peaceful and serene, which was absolutely ideal to me.

"Bella," I heard a familiar husky voice call. I turned around to find Jacob standing behind me. For some reason Mike wasn't with him.

"Where's Mike," I asked trying to give the allusion that I actually cared.

"He had a little accident," Jacob said smiling wickedly. "You see, he sort of fell into a massive puddle of mud while playing football with my friends and me. It was an accident of course."

"Of course," I agreed with a smile. Jacob surprised me by taking my hand and pulling me towards a rock just by the water. It felt so natural to be with him. It was almost as if we had been friends forever.

"Bella," he said. "Can I ask you something?"

"Sure," I said concentrating on our hands that were still intertwined. For some reason I felt so guilty. I couldn't stop thinking about Edward and it was driving me insane. What if he were here? What if he saw this? What would he think?

"What do you see in him," Jacob asked with a serious tone. I felt all the blood rush from my face. Did he know about Edward? Was it that obvious?

"About who," I asked suspiciously.

"Mike," he said avoiding my gaze. "In my opinion he isn't good enough for you. I hope you don't me saying this but he seems like such an idiot to me." I couldn't help but roar with laughter. That had to be the funniest thing I had heard in a long time.

"Mike," I gasped trying to find my breath. "Are you serious? Jacob I'm not dating Mike. I would never date Mike! The thought of doing so is just ridiculous!" Hearing this Jacob joined in my laugher.

"Thank God," he said wiping a tear away from his eye. "I would hate to think that you were seeing someone." I instantly stopped laughing the moment he said this. I felt the blood drain from my face as Jacob began to lean in. His lips were practically touching mine. I jerked away from him just before our lips touched.

"Bella," he said noticing my expression. "What's wrong?" He placed his warm arm around my shoulders and lifted my chin so that I was looking at him. "What is it?" He was so close to me. I could feel his hot breath fan across my solemn face. It felt so wrong yet so right to feel him holding me.

"It's nothing," I said moving away from him.

"What's wrong," he asked again. "I thought you liked me."

"I do like you Jacob," I said honestly. "I just don't think it would be right for us to do this." I lifted myself from the rock and began to walk away.

"I thought you were available," he said walking after me. Though his words hurt me, they were entirely correct. Edward had never made his intentions toward me clear.

"I am," I professed.

"Then what's wrong," he asked me. I wanted to answer him but I didn't know what to say. I had no idea why it scared me so much just being alone with Jacob. He seemed nice enough, but he wasn't who I wanted him to be.

"I don't know," I said honestly. "I just don't know." Jacob froze by my side as the pain of rejection filled his face.

"I'm sorry Bella," he told me. "I didn't mean to be so forward. I shouldn't have assumed that you would want to date me."

"It's not that," I told him. "I just don't think it would be fair for me to start something with you when I'm unsure of what I want." I knew it was a lame excuse but it was all I could come up with. Jacob didn't deserve the pain of being in a relationship with someone who wanted to be with someone else.

"Then we can be friends," Jacob said with a huge grin. "At least until you know what you want. I'm not going anywhere Bella, just remember that." I couldn't help but blush at his words. It was hard to believe that anyone would find me desirable. It was also difficult for me to comprehend that someone actually wanted to be with me. The question was why was I hesitating?

"BELLA," I heard Mike's annoying voice shrill behind me. I turned around to see that what Jacob told me was completely accurate. Mike was covered in mud from head to toe.

"Mi-ike," I said trying to contain my laugher. "What happened?"

"What are you doing here Black," Mike growled. "I thought you had plans."

"I do have plans," Jacob stated.

"You do," I said feeling guilty. "I'm sorry I kept you from them."

"Silly Bella," Jacob laughed, "your part of my plans."

"What," Mike gasped. "You said you were going to a dance at school. How is Bella part of your plans?"

"She's going with me," Jacob stated confidently. I gulped rather loudly and began to shake my head in protest.

"Jake I can't dance," I told him. "It would be disastrous if you took me with you."

"Don't worry Bells," he winked. "I'll keep you safe."

"She's my girlfriend," Mike screamed. "You can't take her anywhere. Charlie said she's supposed to be spending time with me anyway." Jacob's face became hard as he approached Mike. It was hilarious to watch the two of them. Mike looked like a small child compared to the massive boy that was now hovering over him.

"Bella is coming with me," he said severely. "End of story Fig Newton." Mike collapsed to the ground and began to cry. Jacob drew his arm around my waist and began to drag me in the opposite direction. "Come on gorgeous. Let's get you ready."

It had taken less than two minutes to track Bella's scent. I found her at the beach wandering around aimlessly. A strange scent accompanied her's. Someone was standing directly behind her.

"Bella," a husky voice said causing her to jump. The boy looked familiar but I could hardly place him.

"Where's Mike," Bella asked the boy. Where was that vile Newton? I thought he was escorting her all weekend.

"He had a little accident," the boy said with a fierce grin. She's so beautiful, I heard him think. Why would she be wasting her time on an idiot like Mike? The boy then continued to tell my Bella about Mike's unfortunate "accident." What he did next completely took me off guard. He took my loves hand and pulled her toward a rock where they both sat down.

"Can I ask you something," the boy asked her.

"Of course," she answered politely.

"What do you see in him," he asked her. Who was he speaking of? It couldn't have been Mike. Bella positively detested him. That was apparent to anyone. Bella began to laugh in response to his question.

"Mike," she chocked. "Are you serious? Jacob I'm not dating Mike. I would never date Mike! The thought of doing so is just ridiculous!" Jacob? Why did that name sound so familiar? He was the spitting image of the Ephram Black who banded me and my family from the lands of La Push all those years ago.

"Thank God, "boy named Jacob said. He then moved even closer to Bella. "I would hate to think that you were seeing someone." She's single, he thought. Damn, I'm crazy for this girl and she seems to be pretty into me, time to make my move.

I wanted to swoop in and steal Bella from his grip. Bella was mine, forever. She loved me; she wanted me, only me. Why was she sitting so close to him? Why was she allowing him to touch her? Could it be that she felt the same way about him? At that moment I wished more than ever that I could read Bella's mind.

I'm going to do it, the dog thought. I'm going to kiss her, and she's going to kiss me. His lips were practically touching her's. I couldn't stay here, I couldn't watch this!

I felt my body begin to sprint across the territory as my mind began to scream at me. It was telling me to go back, find Bella and bring her back where she belongs. I wanted to kill Jacob Black. I wanted to guarantee that he would never touch her again.

The moment I landed on the opposite side of the territory I felt my cell phone begin to vibrate again. Once more I answered it in haste hoping and praying that it was Bella.

"Hello," I said trying to sound normal.

"Edward," I heard Alice's voice say. "You need to come home. We need to talk."

"I can't Alice," I said with anger. "You know I can't. I'm not leaving Bella. I can't lose her again."

"That's just it Edward," Alice said. "Bella isn't who you think she is. We need to talk."

Muahahahha, I know I'm evil but I couldn't' help it. The next chapter will hold every explanation that you could ever want. Thanks for reading guys!
