Chapter VIII

Jacob POV

"It's about Elena."

I froze right there and then. What could they possibly want to talk to me about Elena. Was she leaving? Was she hurt? As the freaking empath felt my emotions he spoke up. "She's fine. She's not hurt."

"So can we talk?" Emmett asked as he looked at all of us.

Sam, can I? ~ Me.

Yes. She's your imprint it might be important. ~ Sam.

Sam some of us should head back. ~ Jared.

Agreed. Embry and Quil stay with Jacob while the rest of us head back. If you need us call. Got it? ~ Sam.

Got it! ~ All.

The rest of pack headed to the Rez as I went behind a bush and phased back and put on the pair of trousers that were previously tied to my ankle as Embry and Quil stayed in wolf form.

"So what about Elena?" I asked once I was done changing and came from behind the bush. "What's the deal between you and Elena?" Emmett asked. "What is it to you?" I snarled.

"Elena is in pain. Not physically, but emotionally and we don't know why, but what we do know its connected to you somehow, so spill." Jasper said calmly as he sent us a wave of calm.

Elena was already feeling the side effects of being away from one's imprint. I was happy and sad all at the same time. The fact that Elena already felt our bond, it just showed how strong our bond was, but I hated t6he fact that she was in pain. Now I know why Sam and Jared are so whipped.

"She's my imprint." I said simply before explaining the imprint to them. When I was done I didn't know whether they were angry or sad.

"Well it looks like we're going to have to start calling you brother." Emmett joked as a big smile broke out on his face. "Brother?" I said astonished.

Emmett smiled once more before the empath spoke up. "Elena has become like family to us, so you better get used to having us around." Jasper said with a smile of his own, but I wasn't smiling.

First Bella, Now Elena. What the hell is with the girls in my life and these damn blood suckers? I turned around to head to the Rez when Jasper stopped me. "Wait Jacob there is something you should know."

I turned around to face him before he spoke again. "Elena knows all about vampires, Jacob. She knew about us before she came here and she's okay with it…she also knows about the pack, she only knows about there being shape shifters, but not who they are." My mouth fell open at this.

Why did Elena know about vampires before? Was she involved with one of them? Did she know who attacked her in the forest and why? I really wanted answers. I wanted to know.

"We won't tell you anything more. That's up to her to do. Tomorrow when you see her, tell her the truth and I'm sure she'll do the same... oh and you do anything to hurt her, treaty or no treaty will kill you." Emmett said while Jasper nodded in agreement, before running back to their house. I phased back and immediately went back to the Rez.

Dude you okay? ~ Embry.

Yeah man. What you going to do when you see her tomorrow? ~ Quil.

I don't know. I guess I'll come clean and hope she does the same. ~ Me.

Well I hope everything turns out okay for you man. I really like her. ~ Ouil.

Agreed. Besides she's got a hot body. I wonder if she has a sister. ~ Embry.

I mentally laughed at that before reaching the edge of the woods by my house, and phasing back and heading inside and went to bed thinking about tomorrow.

Elena POV

I was so excited to see Jacob. I woke up feeling all giddy and excited, so much that Emmett had to hold Jasper down from jumping up and down like a mad man.

I hopped into my new Audi S6, a gift from Emmett and Jasper as I headed down to La Push. {AN: Pic on profile.} I smiled the whole way as I drove to the border.

I felt my smile even get wider, if even possible as I saw Jacob there waiting for me. I stopped the car at the border as I got out and ran to him and engulfed him in a big hug. He laughed as he wrapped his arms around me tightly bring me closer to his tone, warm chiseled chest.

"Well somebody missed me?" Jacob said into my hair. "Yeah…how did you get here?" I asked once I pulled away and noticed he was here alone without a car.

"I ran." He said simply before pulling me back to my car. I knew it was a long way from the Rez to the border, but then again with a body like his, it wasn't impossible.

Once we were in the car, Jacob gave me directions to house belonging to a friend of his and her fiancée, Emily and Sam.

As I arrived I met Emily, who absolutely gorgeous even with the scars that marred her face, and the rest of Jacob's 'brothers' that I didn't met at the beach yesterday, Sam and Jared. I also met Jared's girlfriend, Kim and Emily's cousin and Seth's older sister, Leah, which for some reason was being a total bitch.

Later Jacob and I were walking on the beach, holding hands, talking and learning more about each other, when Jacob turned serious all of a sudden. "There is something I need to tell you."

CLIFFHANGER!

What will happen to between Jacob & Elena when they find out the truth?

I hope you all enjoyed this chapter. I will try to update as soon as possible.
