Chapter 24 – Good to Be Back

JACOBPOV

After the filthy bloodsucker was dead the pack headed back to the reservation. I pounded into the house and was greeted warmly by my dad.

"Jacob!" he exclaimed and wheeled over to me. I bent down and gave him a hug. "You're back!"

"Yeah." I said. "And exhausted. Can I fill you in tomorrow?"

"Sure, sure thing Jake. I was just heading to bed. I'll see you tomorrow. So glad your back son."

He rolled towards his room behind the kitchen and I trampled to mine. I lay down on my bed, feet hanging off the end.

I had realized something today. That if I was still Bella's friend Jake, then it didn't hurt. I sighed happily. After everything today and I had actually gotten something out of it. I had gotten my best friend back. I had gotten my life back.

It was good to be back.
