Shannon's P.O.V

"We're going to see Jacob?" I asked, suddenly excited.

"Sure. C'mon." Bella told me.

We walked down the stairs and Bella grabbed the keys to her truck. Then she called to Charlie.

"Charlie! We're going to see Jake!" She called.

"See you soon." He called back.

"Bye dad!" I called.

"Bye girls." He replied.

We got in her truck and she drove on.

"So... Where is it exactly that we're going?" I asked.

"La Push beach. We're meeting him there." She told me.

I nodded and pulled my legs up to my chest. I curled my arms around them and looked out the window at the passing trees.

Newt thing you know, something touches my knee.

I looked up and saw a hand there. Then I looked over to my sister and it was hers obviously. She smiled a small smile at me.

I smiled at her too then looked out the windscreen.

We were coming up to the Reservation.

"What does Jake look like again?" I wondered.

Bella cleared her throat. "Um... He used to have really long hair, now it's all cut off and cropped. And um... He's huge and I mean it. He's really tall and built. Biceps and six pack and... stuff." She mumbled and coughed.

I looked at her in disbelief. "No way." I said.

She nodded. "Well... He's sixteen now... You haven't seen him in nine years." She then chuckled.

I raised my eyebrows and smirked.

"But I'm pretty sure he won't know who you are..." She chuckled. "You look so much more different than you did when you were five."

I rolled my eyes. "Yeah." I muttered under my breath.

Suddenly we were at La Push. Bella parked the truck and we got out.

We walked down to the beach and sat on some rocks.

Bella walked up to the water and stared at it.

"Bella!" Someone called.

Bella and I turned around and saw a boy jogging towards us. He had russet coloured skin. Really tall. Well built. Wearing a grey tank top and cut-offs. Must be Jacob.

No Point of View

When he got there, he picked Bella up and spun her around.

"Hey." She giggled when he set her down.

Jake smiled and turned to Shannon who was still sitting on a rock.

"Who's your friend?" He asked.

Bella put her hand on Shannon's shoulder.

"She's my sister." She said with a sarcastic smile.

Jake stared at Shannon in disbelief.

"No way." He whispered.

Both Bella and Shannon nodded.

"That's Shannon? !" Jake asked pointing at Shannon.

"Mmm." Bella said nodding.

Jake widened his eyes and his jaw dropped.

"Hi Jacob." Shannon said standing up with a smile on her face.

"Hey! Where have you been kiddo? !" He asked Shannon, giving her one of his special bear hugs.

"Here and there." Shannon replied.

"You're... Different." Jacon said looking her up and down, gesturing with his hand.

"Everyone says that! I don't get it!" Shannon exclaimed.

"You haven't changed in a bad way." Jacob pointed out.

Shannon rolled her eyes and Bella smirked.

"Told you." Bella murmured.

Shannon lightly punched Bella in the arm still looking at Jake and and Jake chuckled.

"So what are we doing today?" He asked as Bella stood up.

"Whatever... Something fun." She said.

Shannon shrugged and put her hands in her pockets and walked down to the water.

Bella watched as she did so. Jake then looked at her too.

Jacob then looked at Bella and slid his hand over hers.

Bella was startled and looked down. She gave a weak smile.

"Can I hold your hand these days?" Jacob asked smiling.

Bella curved her lips and looked up at Jacob's waiting face.

"Of course you can... Just, don't let it change anything." Bella said quietly.

Jacob looked down at her and studied her face.

"I'm not changing our friendship Bella. But I'm not giving up." He whispered and put Bella's hand to his heart.

Bella looked away and closed her eyes. "I don't want you to." She said softly.

Jacob turned Bella's face round to his and slowly leaned in.

Bella stayed where she was and didn't move.

Jake's lips nearly met hers, then she stopped.

"Jake. Don't, do this." She whispered.

Jake sighed and opened his eyes to see Bella staring up at him.

"It's not gonna' change anything Bells." He whispered.

Bella closed her eyes and sighed. "You're my best friend. If anything goes wrong... Who is going to keep the nightmares away?" She looked up at Jake and shook her head. "Don't, leave me Jake." She said with pain in her voice.

Jacob stared into her eyes and pulled her in for a hug.

"I'm not going anywhere Bella. Nothing's gonna' happen between us. I promise, I won't hurt you, like that bloodsucker. I. Love. You. Bella." Jake said.

It was then, that Bella started crying into Jacob's chest.

Jake kissed the top of her head and held her tighter.

"Everything's gonna' get better Bella. I promise." Jacob whispered.

Bella's P.O.V

I was sobbing my heart out into Jacob's shirt, and I'm sure it was drenched.

He was stroking my hair and comforting me.

I really really love Jake.

And here I am, crying to him while my little sister is down on the beach.

I pulled out of the hug.

"Sorry." I muttered.

"Don't apologize." Jake said softly.

"Guys!" My little sister called.

I was startled and quickly rubbed the tears from my eyes.

"Hey." I said softly as I wrapped my arm around her shoulder.

Jacob smiled at her.

"So... Shannon. What do you like to do for fun?" He asked.

Shannon shrugged.

"I dunno'. Art. Listen to music. Hike. Swim. And stuff that involves adrenaline! I like the feeling when your in danger... Most of the time." She added slowly.

"Hmm... How about we go for a hike thorugh the woods?" Jake then asked.

"Sure." I agreed instantly.

"Okay!" Shannon said with a bright smile on her face.

I loved it when her and Jake were happy. It made me happy.

"Well c'mon. Let's go." Jake said.

I looked at Shannon and we followed after Jacob.

When we got into the forest, Shannon was infront, climbing up trees and rocks, and I was with Jacob behind her.

Jake put his hand over mine again and I closed my eyes and let out a small sigh. But, I couldn't tell him to let go... It felt... Good.

I saw Shannon climb up a cliff with sharps rocks beneath it.

"Hey, Shannon. Be careful." I called.

"No problem! I got it!" She called back.

I kept my eyes on her. She can be a little clumsy like me sometimes.

"So..." Jake said. "Shannon's cool. What age is she? Like... Fourteen?"

I nodded, not taking my eyes off my little sister.

"Yeah. Just turned fourteen last month." I said.

Jake nodded and tightened his grip around my hand.

I winced and he shot his head towards me.

"You want me to let go?" He asked, loosening his grip.

In response I tightened my grip around his hand.

I looked up at him. "No. Jake... I wanna' tell you something..." I started.

I wanted to tell him how much he means to me.

"Yeah?" He asked softly.

I took a deep breath, but before I could start, we both heard a 'whoa!'

My head snapped in the direction and I saw Shannon about to fall.

Shannon's P.O.V

I couldn't even scream when I tripped over a rock.

Great... Who would of ever thought I was gonna' die by falling on rocks? Not me, that's for sure.

"SHANNON!" My sister screamed.

My eyes widened before I fell and then, when I started to fall off the cliff, I shut them tight.

"NO!" I heard Bella scream again.

"When I was sure I'd stopped falling, I didn't feel any pain. Instead, I felt two massive hot arms around me.

"Jake!" I heard Bella call.

Jake? Was Jacob holding me?

I slwly opened my eyes, one after the other, and saw a worried face hanging over me.

"Thank God." Jacob let out a breath.

"Jake?" I asked.

"Shannon!" Bella ran over to us and let out and exasperated sigh.

"Shannon are you alright?" She asked pushing my hair out of my face while I was still in Jacob's arms.

"I'm half left." I chuckled. So did Bella. "Jake... How did you catch me in time? And... You're really... Hot." I asked.

"Why, thank you." He chuckled.

I rolled my eyes and hit his arm. "Not like that!"

After a minute my hand started to get sore. 'Ow...' I thought to myself.

Jacob and Bella exchanged looks then Jacob cleared his thoat.

"I, um... Ran to you. And I'm hot because I, uh... Trap... Body heat." He told me.

I raised an eyebrow and shook my head.

I knew he was lying, but I didn't question him.

I just nodded then put my head to his shoulder. His whole body was on fire.

"Thank you." I mumbled into his shirt.

"No problem." He said softly, putting me back on my feet.

Bella hugged me and looked my up and down, obviously checking me for cuts and bruises.

Then she hugged Jake.

"Thank you Jacob." I heard her say.

Jake started stroking her hair and kissed her on the top of her head.

I smiled at the scene. But there's definitely something up with him. I mean, come one. How could he run that fast and why was he so hot?

Guess I'll just have to wait and see.


Jacob's P.O.V

We continued to walk again, Shannon going infront, not doing anything reckless.

I put my hands in the pockets of my frayed cut-offs.

I felt Bella look up at me, so I looked down at her.

"You saved Shannon." She said.

I had a confused look on my face. "...Yeah..." I said hesitating.

"What are we going to tell her? Y'know, about the heat thing?" She then said.

"Is she good with weird, like you?" I asked after a thought.

Bella then looked up at me with urgency on her face.

"You're going to tell her?" She asked.

"May aswell. Did you teel her about the bloodsuckers?" I wondered.

She nodded. "Took it well." She said warily.

I looked at Shannon then at Bella.

"How about I ask Sam. Then I'll tell you. And we'll get the guys together and tell her about the werewolves together." I said.

Bella sighed and pushed her hair back. "Alright." She said.

I stared at her.

"She's gonna' think we're freaks." She laughed.

I chuckled. "Ah well. When she knows about it, it'll be easier. For all of us." I said.

Bella nodded and looked at me.

"What?" I asked softly.

"You wanna' go tell them now?" She asked.

I thought about it. Would Shannon see if I phased? If she did, what would she say?

"Uh... Okay... I'll be back soon." I went to kiss Bella, but instead, I put my forehead against hers.

I ran off and phased, leaving Bella and Shannon in the woods.

Bella's P.O.V

I watched as Jake ran off into the trees and phased. I smiled to myself and remembered what he looked like when he was a wolf.

"Whatcha' staring at?" Shannon said beside me.

I jumped and put my hand over my heart.

"Shannon! You scared the crap outta' me!" I exclaimed.

"Sorry." She giggled. "But what were you staring at?"

"Um... Just a squirrel. I was watching it climb up and down a tree." I lied pathetically.

She obviously knew I was lying. It was pretty obvious. Anyone would know I was lying. I can't lie. But she's nice enough not to question me.

"Whatever." She said a few octaves higher in her voice.

"Where's Jacob?" She then asked.

"Oh... He went to his dad's to tell him something." I lied again. My god... How much lying do I have to do these days?

Shannon sighed and climbed up a small tree to sit on a sterdy branch.

"So... Now what?" She asked.

I curved my lips.

"I guess we wait on him." I said.

Jacob's P.O.V

I ran to Emily's place, as fast as I could go... So I could make it back to Bella and Shannon.

Being a werewolf did have its ups and downs... But this was definitely an up.

'Took you long enough Jakey-boy!' Paul joked.

I rolled my eyes. Of course... Paul. The joker. He always had to get something in, didn't he?

'So you have something to tell us?' Sam thought.

'Yup... It's kinda' important.' I thought back.

'Well out with it!' Embry then thought.

I phased back to human form, followed by the other guys.

"So, Jacob. What's this, 'kinda' important' thing you have to tell?" Jared asked.

"Well... You guys know that Bella's sister Shannon is in town now. Right?" I asked.

They all nodded.

"Well... Bella and I had a thought... If maybe, we should tell her about the whole werewolf thing?" I said, waiting for the responses.

"Does she take weird well?" Sam wondered.

"Very. Bella told her about the Cullens. She seemed alright with it." I replied.

They all thought about it and Sam nodded.

"Alright. We'll get a campfire up tonight and you get Bella and Shannon to come. We'll tell her then." Sam agreed.

I nodded. "Thanks Sam. I'll go tell them." I said jogging off and phasing.

The last thing I heard was Paul.

'Good choice wolfy! She better take it well.' He thought sarcastically.

I growled and thought to myself. 'It's obvious she'll take it well... She's Bella's sister...'

When I got back to the woods, I phased back to a human and walked up behind Bella.

I covered her eyes.

She gasped and I smirked.

"Guess who, beautiful." She snatched my hands away from her face and spun round.

She smiled. "Did you ask them?"

"Yup. We're having a campfire tonight and Sam told me to tell you and Shannon to come." I replied.

She nodded and called Shannon over.

She jumped down from the tree and walked over.

"What's goin' on?" She asked.

"Do you wanna' come to a campfire tonight? Me, you, Bella and us Quileutte tribe boys from La Push are going to be there." I chuckled.

"Sure!" She said. "I love campfires! Can I bring marshmallows? !"

I laughed. "Sure, sure... Just don't forget the chocolate and crackers."

Bella rolled her eyes and smiled.

Okay... Let's get ready for the legends.
