Jacob's P.O.V.
What happened to her? Was all I could think when I was holding Avery as she wore herself out by crying in my arms.
Each tear she cried went directly through my shirt and stabbed my heart.
She looked so...destroyed as she just cried and cried, something I wouldn't have expected from a woman so strong, I'd have to ask her about it tomorrow, though I doubt she'd want to talk about it.
After a while her crying turned to a slight whimpering and then that turned to a deep sleep. I picked her up, bridal-style, and put her into a comfortable position on her bed, tucking the covers around in her.
But, before I left, I couldn't resist kissing her forehead.
When I quietly left Avery's room when I felt someone poke me in the back. To be honest, it kind of scared me. And all it was was Cindy with one of those small electric lanterns.
"Thanks for helping her this time, it gets kind of hard to see your baby sister cry like that," Cindy thanked me with a saddened expression on her face, most likely thinking of past experiences where she was the one to sit with Avery. It must have been hard, I remember hearing Rebecca cry like that and having Rachel there to comfort her. But that was only for a few hours and only once. This probably happens all night on a regular basis.
"It was my pleasure, I'll do it anytime," I offered, knowing that without a doubt that I would do it too.
"I'm sure you would," she eyed me suspiciously. "Come with me Jacob Black," she said ushering me into the living room. Cindy went to sit on a chair while I returned to my make-shift bed.
"I have some questions I want answered and I want true and honest ones. Got it?" Cindy asked me.
"Of course, ask away."
"what are your towards my sister?" Cindy asked, now in an inquisitorial mode.
"Avery is an amazing person, no point in denying that." I didn't want to say that in my mind Avery is the perfect girl in every aspect of everything (A/N: Does that make sense?), that just may push me towards stalker in her mind.
"That true. She really is something special. But I want you to stay away from her, at least when you're not working at the diner anyways. Not that I don't trust you, I just want to keep her safe."
She's said that before, I wonder if this has anything to do with Avery's boyfriend, Wes.
"What would make you think that she'd be in danger?" I asked, playing the innocent card.
"That's something Avery will have to tell you herself.
"I completely understand, and I'll try to keep my distance from her when out of the diner." But that was never an intention in my mind. Avery would think she was crazy after seeing a giant wolf outside of her window before I really left Avery alone.
"Thanks for understanding Jacob, you're a good guy, and that goes a long way in my book," Cindy stood up and patted my shoulder. "Well, I'm off to bed. Avery's the insomniac, not me. Good night."
"Night," I called to her as she left the room.
Even though I promised Cindy I'd leave Avery alone, for her sake, I'd still be there to protect her, it's my job, being a 'Protector.' But I'd do it even if it wasn't.
If I have my way, nothing will ever harm her again.
