Hey everyone- my Internet is acting up still, so this is a little later in than I wanted it to be- but on the bright side, I can finish more chapters!

So- if I owned the Twilight Saga, this would be published- not a fanfic.

Chapter 5:

"Victoria!"

I hissed, startling Jacob.

His grip on the steering wheel tightened even more, to the point where it was creaking and groaning.

"Yeah," he ground out, "Victoria's in there."

My eyes widened.

"Wait!" I hissed, "Charlie! What if he comes home? Victoria..." I trailed off, knowing full well what might happen to Charlie if he came home while Victoria was still there.

"It's okay," Jake glanced at me and smiled tightly, "I'll call my dad- he'll keep Charlie over there until we are absolutely sure that Victoria's gone."

I stopped hyperventilating, though I was still scared.

"Hey," said Jake. "Don't worry- the pack will take care of her."

I shook my head. "That doesn't make me feel better in the slightest."

He laughed tightly. "You don't trust us?"

"I don't trust that you won't get hurt," I whispered.

"Don't worry about us," he said, "We'll be just fine. It's you I worry about."

I turned and looked out the window. Wow, we were already almost to his house. That discussion must have taken longer than I thought.

I daydreamed about a time when I wouldn't have to worry about vampires and werewolves getting hurt.

Jake stopped the car, yanking me out of my reverie.

"Come on, Bella. Let's get you inside." He said.

We walked to the familiar little house and went inside.

Where Sam, Paul, and Embry were waiting for us.

Paul glared at me, and I shrank back against Jake, who glared at Paul and said,

"Paul, no. It's the blood-sucker- Victoria."

The change in all of their demeanors was immediate- Sam's eyes darkened and he walked out, Embry stood up rigidly, and Paul followed Sam.

Then Sam's head poked out from outside, frightening me very much.

"Get her dry, Jake. Stay with her."

Jake smiled grimly. "I wasn't going to leave her- not in this state."

He turned to me, indicating that I was shaking, and- were those weird moans from me? I tried to stop, but it seemed too hard, so I gave up, and leaned against Jacob.

Sam nodded, and left. I heard wolf howls, and Jake sighed and turned to me.

"Go sit on the couch while I get you something to eat and call Charlie."

Oh, damn. I smacked my forehead. "Charlie! I forgot to call Charlie! He's going to kill me!"

Jake smiled. "Don't worry, Bells, I'll call him. Or Dad will."

I drew in a shaky breath and nodded.

He smiled. "Good. Now- what do you want to eat?"

As said before, I am so sorry about the delay. My computer was being annoying.
