Bites, Fights, and Lovely Ladies
Ch. 13
So what's your plan, Jake?
I'm going to tell her that it was a last minute decision, and just sorta make it up as I go.
They were almost to the Cullens' house by now, the pack ran in regular formation, with Jazz at the back.
For a while they debated weither or not to actually take her, but for reasons unknown to the rest of them, Jazz practically begged to go. From what they could tell she wanted to go to make sure Jacob was okay, and to see the Bella she's heard so much about.
What they may not have noticed was that she also wanted to go because she wanted to see the other Vampires. She didn't actually know any other Vampires besides herself, so it was sort of exciting for her to finally see her own kind.
It wasn't as though she didn't like her werewolves, she loved them like family, well… maybe more then family for one of them, but they weren't the same thing she was; and there was always some little feeling of wanting to fight her wolves, that was pushed back into the deepest darkest corner of her mind, but it was still there.
She tried to ignore that feeling, but it was always just on the edge of her thoughts. She thought that if she saw her own kind, everything she'd heard from the wolves about how much like monsters they were would become true and that that little feeling would go away.
And even with all that, her main reason for wanting to tag along was to make sure Jacob was okay.
Even though Sam finally allowed her to come along, they all came to an agreement that she would have to remain hidden. She would have to keep her mind quiet and the others would try to not think about her, they really didn't want the Cullens to know they had a Vampire with them.
At first they had worried about Alice, but remembering that she couldn't see the wolves lifted their fears.
Finally, after what seemed like ages of running, but was actually just a few minutes, the pack reached the edges of the Cullens' property and slowed down to a brisk walk.
Jazz, Jacob said, Do you think you can handle this? There are lots of people here, not just Vampires.
They all stopped to look back at her and she raised her head and took a deep breath of air through her nose, but immediately started caughing.
Jesus Christ! She thought, What the HELL is that awful smell? It's burning my nose! It's like something drenched the place in strong perfume and sugar…
The wolves inwardly chuckled and Quil said,
So, you don't think WE smell bad?
No, you actually smell pretty good to me
Now that they actually thought about it, Jazz didn't really smell bad to them either, they wondered if Vampires just got the smell from hanging out with each other.
Jacob went to phase back into human form, and Jazz followed him silently, as did the rest of the pack. A few moments went by of quiet walking before they reached the edge of the trees and could see past them and at a dance-floor like set-up.
"Well" Jake muttered, "No going back now I guess."
He stepped to the edge and Jazz hid behind a jumble of trees, bushes, and various plants not too far away. She looked at the crowd and noticed a pair spinning, or 'dancing' towards them. She tensed, what if they saw the wolves? But her fears quickly dissapeared as the couple stopped and the guy looked at Jacob and said, "Thank you. This is very… kind of you."
Jacob smirked, "Kind is my middle name. Can I cut in?"
The girl who had been squinting into the darkness looked like she was choking and said, "Jacob! Jacob!"
"Hey there, Bells."
Jazz felt jealousy and annoyance start to grow within her as she nearly snarled.
So, this was the great Bella.
