Lee and I have been hanging out these past couple days. We have been getting closer than we thought possible. We talk about absolutely everything; she's even opened up to me about the whole Sam thing.
"You see Iz, everyone thinks I still love Sam so that is why I act the way I do, but that's not completely true. I mean he was my first love, my first everything of coarse I'll always love him to some degree but what gets me is the way he feels about me.
I'm in his head I see everything, which suck in its own right but he's still holding onto me. Really, the guy cheated on me with my maid of honor the day before our wedding and I walked in on it! What kind of animal does that?
That's what still bothers me, that he could do that but than have the audacity to still think about our 'love'. He wants to be at least friends and I may have considered it if he hadn't done what he did. I don't think I can ever trust another man again and I only had one guy screw me over."
"Iz!" I heard a yell and fell off the bed.
"God woman! What!" I shouted at Lee who was on her bed rolling over laughing at me on the floor.
"I'm sorry girl; I was trying to get your attention for a few minutes, where'd you go?"
"Sorry Lee I was just thinking bout the Sam thing."
"You know, since I've told you about all that, I've kind of felt lighter. It's nice to have a friend who doesn't expect me to jump right back at them with forgiveness."
"Yea yea, well what were you yelling at me for anyways?" I asked waving off Lee's temporary sentimental moment.
"Oh, the pack is having a bonfire tonight and Quil and Paul want to know if I'm bringing my 'girlfriend' with me." She used her hands to quote 'girlfriend'.
Ever since the other day when Lee and I were pretending to be together Quil and Paul have been up our butts.
They know it's not true because they phased with Lee but they still won't leave us alone about it.
We don't mind, I've already told Lee if I swung that way she's totally my type. That was a hilarious conversation in its own.
I was laughing just thinking about it. "Sure thing Lee, I haven't really talked to the guys since my fun night." I winked knowing she would know what I was talking about.
"You know Lee, with all the stress and everything that's been going on I'm really in need of an outlet."
Lee looked at me funny, "Um, listen Iz, I love you and all but I don't…"
I cut her off with that train of thought laughing at her facial expression.
"Lee, I just meant I was going to call the Volturi and see if they had any missions for me, I don't know, maybe go down south and take out some newborn armies."
"Newborn armies? What the hell is that? Why would you kill babies and who would have an army of them?" I just giggled at her naivety.
"No Lee, newborn is what you call a vampire for the first year of their Vamped out life. They are stronger and faster during that time and harder to control due to their crazy bloodlust.
Vamps in the south fight over feeding territory by having wars and their armies consist of newborns, although they dispose of them themselves when they are no longer useful."
"So how long would you be leaving me for?" She asked with a pout.
"Oh, Lee, don't be sad, I was going to see if you wanted to come with me. I could train you and this way we can both have some fun and get our anger out without worrying about killing anyone we shouldn't."
"Sam would never go for it, though I love the idea." She replied.
"What if I told you there was a way to make you a lone wolf? Where you would no longer be apart of this pack? Would you do it?"
"Really? That's possible? What do I have to do?" she sounded so excited though I wasn't sure she would like this next part.
"Lee, you wouldn't be able to live in la push anymore and you probably wouldn't be allowed to phase on this land. Would that be ok for you? You could live with me in forks."
"Yea, yea, sounds wonderful! What do I have to do?" she responded enthusiastically. Wow I guess she really hates being in the boys heads that much.
"Well, it's simple really; you just got to get banished." Leah just looked at me funny. I guess she couldn't think of how to do that.
"Lee, you're a protector of humans, no matter how horrible that human may be you can not harm them intentionally."
By golly I think she's got it! Lee's smile would make the Cheshire cat jealous.
"Alright, well let's enjoy tonight's bonfire than we can plan who will be getting the ass whopping from this she wolf." She rubbed her hands together in the evil genius sort of way while I just giggled.
We spent only about an hour getting ready since neither of us really wore makeup or went crazy to impress. We knew we were hot and didn't have to work for it.
While Lee was putting on her black dress with white and grey skulls I got for her, I had texted Jane to let her know I needed some fun and had a friend who wanted to help.
She said she would call later with information from Aro for me.
I wore my shredded jean short shorts and my 'Revenge is Sweet' black tank top. It had a skull with pigtails in the middle of the words.
I tossed on some of my leather bracelets and my black leather choker.
I didn't bother with shoes since we were just going to walk from Lee's house and I enjoyed barefoot anyway. Made me feel more, I don't know, one with my surroundings? I just preferred it.
We had both just left our hair down to go with the flow.
We arrived at the bonfire where everyone was just lounging around just chatting.
"God, Lee, these guys are so boring! Didn't anyone bring music or something?"
Lee smirked and walked over to a beat up 80's looking boom box and turned it on tuning into some crap pop station. I looked at her funny which caused her to giggle.
"Ok ok, no rap crap, got it." She switched to a good hard rock station and we started singing with Avenged Sevenfold.
Throughout the night we ate and had a good time.
Jared kept looking at me and seemed like he really wanted to talk but didn't have the balls to come up to me. What a pussy.
Paul and Quil, being the perverts they are, kept trying to get me and Lee to go at it. That got several growls from Jared all night.
Sam I guess couldn't hold his own in at one point which got him curious looks from everyone, especially Emily. She kept glaring at Lee all night which was starting to piss me off.
Lee and I just stayed to ourselves though.
We did say hi to Cat. I didn't want to just brush her off when she's done nothing wrong. I mean really I only had something against men in general, well wolf-men, which she was not so we were good.
While everyone was eating I had finally gotten my call from Aro. I screeched real loud which caused everyone to look at me.
Lee raised an eyebrow. "We might be getting our fun soon." I winked at her while she just smiled and gestured for me to answer the phone.
"Hello Aro and how are we this fine day?" I said cheerfully.
"Isabella darling, we are wonderful and how are you miei cari? I hear someone is getting bored and looking for an exterminating mission?"
I growled as he said my full name.
"Aro, I never liked the name Isabella and you know it. Looks like I am officially stuck as Izzy now so you WILL call me that. And as for the boredom yes I am. You remember how I had mentioned Vicky yes?"
At his mumbled agreement I continued.
"Well, she had sent a welcoming committee for me and it looks like our Izzy isn't done with her play time."
I smirked at Lee while we waited for a response. I had put the phone on speaker figuring it wasn't fair the wolves could hear but not the imprints or elders.
We heard several gasps from the other side and than what sounded like Caius take a deep breath to respond.
"Izzy, you know I love it when you go into that mode but are you sure it's safe. I mean you are with your wolves and around quite a few humans I am sure. Do you not think Bella would be easier and safer for them? Izzy, miei preziosi ragazza, I just worry how you will feel if you do something Bella would not approve,"
I cut him off there.
"Oh dear Caius, you misunderstand. Bella is done, she is no more, Izzy is here to stay and as such she needs an outlet which you are going to provide. I could just search out for myself but I don't want to hurt any friends or allies of yours."
It was Papa Marcus' turn. He has been lost ever since his loss of Didyme to the hand of the Romanian coven and had grown attached to me as would a father and I looked up to him as such.
He growled thunderously through the phone.
"Who did this? I know you wolves can hear me, which of you mangy mutts is responsible? I will tear every one of you apart until I find…" there was a scuffle and I heard Caius trying to calm Papa Marcus.
"Papa, why seem so upset? You know I can handle myself and now with just Izzy to appease we don't need to worry about any unnecessary distractions." I sneered the word.
It was Aro to respond this time though not in his usual cheerfulness.
"Izzy, miei cari, emotions are not distractions." He sighed.
"Yea, yea, so back to topic. What you got for us?" Everyone around us looked completely lost and I could smell a slight amount of fear at what had been explained.
The kings already knew I was bringing in a friend just not who.
"Oh, yes, I completely forgot!" There goes Aro back to his usual peppiness. "Who is the lucky wolf that managed to find his way into stone cold Izzy's stone cold heart?"
I smirked and got that giddy feeling again at the awaiting chaos that was sure to happen when the wolves heard this news.
I looked at Lee to make sure it was ok. With her nod I responded to Aro while looking at the pack.
"Well, first off, he is really a she…" I smirked, let the chaos begin!
A/N thanks for the reviews. I'm sorry to those who wanted the guys POV on the last chapter I had already started this one and honestly couldn't think of much to write for it. I wasn't going to add the bonfire to this chapter but it just came out anyway so I figured why not. I didn't think anyone would be mad for a longer chapter. Lee is Leah's nickname incase ya'll didn't catch on ;) Hope ya'll like it!
Miei Cari- my dear
