When I wake up, it's because I'm being shook back and forth by a warm hand. It's not even light out yet.
"What do you want Jake?" I say as I turn around and look at him, still groggy.
"Remember? We have to meet the Cullen's at your school today. We're putting off substance to continue it later."
"K," I say, and leap out of his arms, and off the tree, thirty feet to the ground. I look up and laugh at his horrified expression. He laughs with me after his realization that I'm a wolf, and can't get hurt…easily. He hops down next to me and I go behind a tree to tie my clothes to my leg and phase. Once I do phase, I find out that everyone is already at Forks High but me and Jake. The sun is starting to come up and we race to school. He beat me of course, because I'm the smallest wolf; I'm human size, but I feel like I could take on the world!
Once we all get there, Sam orders us to phase back, and me and Leah go behind a tree. I emerge just in time to smell that horrible smell again. A silver Volvo pulls up into a parking lot, and when the door opens, the smell is unbearable. I gag, Jacob rubs my back, and the bloodsuckers are coming our way. Huh, I guess I picked up on Jacobs's nickname for them.
"What do you want?" Edward asks Sam.
"To ask when you will be leaving," Sam answers coolly.
"We won't be leaving again because of some people," Rosalie says, giving me the evil eye. But now I'm not scared of her, and I give the stare right back. I can tell that Jake is on the edge of growling at her too.
"Ok, while you work this out, is there any chance I can talk to Bella alone?" Edward asks Sam.
"Two things; One, you don't need to ask him permission, I'm my own person, two, if you need to say something, just spit it out. There's no way I'm going anywhere with you alone," I snap at him. I finally look at the rest of the Cullen's. Alice. Little Alice. Something just occurred to me, just because I hated Edward, does that mean I can't be friends with Alice, Emmet and Jasper? No.
"Bella, can't you just forgive us? Please?" says Alice, and if she was human, she would be crying right now.
"Oh Alice, of course I can be friends with you and Jasper and Emmet. It's just other people I can't be friends with," and I glare at Edward and Rosalie. Edward looks at me with pleading eyes, and Rosalie just flips her hair and looks away.
"Yay!"Alice says and gives me a big hug. Jasper smiles at me because I made Alice happy, and Emmet just grins.
"Bella, I made a mistake. The only reason I left is because I thought you'd be better off without me. But I still love you," Edward just suddenly blurts out.
"You could've killed me. I was under depression for months, and was close to suicidal when Jacob put a newer, better heart in my chest. I can never forgive you for that. Even if I could, there's no way I could come back to you. I've imprinted," I say.
"But to imprint you would have to-" all of the Cullen's gasped as they realize the truth.
"Let's go," I mutter to Jake and pull on his arm to leave. I go behind a tree to phase and come back out from the tree to turn back and see 6 Cullen's all staring at me with bugging eyes. I turn back, and run all the way to Jacobs's house. When I get there, I sit on Jacobs's bed for about an hour just thinking about what just happened. When I finally come out, I see Kim, Rachel, and Emily.
"Hey Bella. All the imprinted guys went out to talk about something. Except for Quil. He doesn't count," says Rachel.
"I don't count? What?" says Quil from the kitchen, who's feeding Claire.
"No. Your imprint isn't our age." says Kim, rolling her eyes.
Suddenly, the door opens, and in come all of our men. "We're going on vacation!" they all scream as they walk in.
