HALEY POV

For my first couple weeks at the Cullen's house, (which is halfway across the United States from my home!) I kept to myself. It all seemed wrong to me, like I was supposed to be in school in Minocqua, and I needed to be at home with my Dad. I missed him so much, his sarcastic comments, the casual way he told me important things, the way we simply got along. But instead, I was choosing to stay in a house with a whole family who are strangers to me.

It's funny how these things work out.

So now, I am sitting on a cliff face overlooking the ocean, listening to my iPod, and wondering what the hell I'm doing here. I heard noises behind me, but ignored them. It was Edward or someone trying to get me to interact, to talk.

"Oh, I'm sorry!" said a husky voice behind me. Maybe not Edward after all…

ALICE POV

Jasper and Emmett were playing Halo 3 and Edward was trying to teach Bella how to play chess (a hopeless case) when I had a vision. But it really wasn't a vision, I only saw Haley sitting on a cliff, and then her future disappeared. So that meant only one thing. She can't die, so it had to be…"Werewolf!" I yelled at the ceiling. My whole family stared at me like I was demented.

"Haley's future just disappeared." I informed them. Emmett cursed and shut off Halo 3.

Carlisle and Esme appeared at the bottom of the stairs, and after a moment, Rosalie from the garage.

"Where was she?" Edward asked.

"Sitting on the cliffs, watching the ocean." There was a minute of silence as everyone thought about it.

"She can't die, right?" Emmett asked.

HALEY POV

I stood up as fast as I could to look like a normal human, and sprang away from the edge. The man in front of me looked to be about 16. (She's fourteen, freshman in high school, remember?) He wore nothing but a pair of swimming trunks, and had a towel over his shoulder. The kid had russet brown skin, long shiny black hair, and friendly black eyes. He must be one of the kids from the reservation Carlisle was trying to tell me about as I stared into space.

"Oh no, don't go! It's fine." He said. His voice was so husky, it was hot.

"Umm, no I'll go. My family is probably worried already…" I trailed off as his eyes glazed over.

"Hey, are you alright?" I asked, stepping closer to him.

JACOB POV (duh, who else would this have been?)

"Hey, are you alright?" she asked and stepped closer. Oh hell no. I was IMPRINTING.

"Um, yeah?" I answered, trying not to stare.

"Here, sit down." She guided me over to a rock and made me sit. My heart beat accelerated when she touched me. Wait a second. Her skin was warm, but hard, like a bloodsucker.

"Oh, you're so warm!" She said, letting go instantly. I looked at her. She was beautiful, with a strange maroonish hair color and pale skin, she looked like a model. No, a angel.

"I think you have a fever…" She put a hand on my forehead, causing me to almost jump up and kiss her. "Holy crap!" She said, moving her hand like lightning off of me.

"You need to be in a hospital!" She dug around in her pockets and pulled out a cell phone.

"Wait." I said, and quickly grabbed the phone. Too quickly. Her eyes widened then narrowed. "What's your name?" I asked, trying to cover up my mistake.

"Haley." She said, still staring.

"Jacob, it's nice to meet you." I said, trying to be human when we obviously weren't.

"Ummm, you just moved so fast…." She said, staring at my hand, testing me.

"I did?" I asked, trying to sound confused.

"Yeah, and-" I cut her off.

"And your skin was so hard!" I warned her. She glared at me.

"Fine, if were acting like that, I'll take my cell and go." She held out a hand for it, waiting. I was stuck. I didn't know what she was, so if I gave it to her, and she tried to spill the guts on me, could I get the phone from her in time? Was she one of the Cullen's projects? Finally, I slowly put into her hand, looking right into her eyes.

HALEY POV

He reached over and placed it in my hand, but stared right at me, causing my heart to jump at the contact. His skin was burning. His hand rested on mine, and I grabbed it, pulling him to his feet. I pulled him up and he stepped forward even though I stepped back, still staring deeply into my eyes, and stepped closer yet so that he stood over me, our noses almost touching as I looked up to keep my eyes on him. Jacob smiled a little, but I was too confused to smile back. What was he doing?

Then he leaned down and kissed me, and it all went downhill from there. I was too surprised to move. His warm arms were around me, and he seemed perfect in every way, it made my head spin.

While we were kissing, I heard the noises of several people coming out of the wood on one side, and on the other. I broke the kiss. "Shit," I panted. "They found me."

"Who found…" he broke off with an angry hiss. "They found me too." Jacob elaborated. WHAT? The Cullen's were after him too?

"Wait, what? Who's after you?" I asked him, and he opened his mouth to answer when the Cullen's ran into view on one side of the cliff and stared at me with hard stares. Just as a group of wolves emerged from the forest on the other side, trapping us in the middle. But they were huge. HUGE. As in mutant scary wolves from hell, coming to maul you to death huge.

Jacob looked back down at me in shock. "That's you family?!" he yelled. How did he know the Cullens?

"You have a pack of giant wolves stalking you?!" I yelled back. We stared at each other, confused beyond belief.

"Haley, what are you doing?! Come back here!" Rosalie yelled from the Cullen side of the cliff.

"Jacob, what the hell is going on here?" Yelled a half naked boy from the wolf side.

"Explain yourself! Giant wolves?!" I hissed at him.

"Me?! You're a Cullen? Since when, and why are you different?" I thought quickly.

"I take it your friends don't like the Cullens?" He nodded. "And it looks like the Cullen's don't really like your friends…so let's get out of here," I thought out loud stupidly, but he grinned.

"Then let's go!" He said mischievously.

"Haley!" Carlisle shouted like a scolding parent.

"Jacob!" Bellowed the half naked guy. He grabbed my hand and we ran for the cliff face.

"No Haley!" I heard Esme cry.

We jumped.
