"Get up!" Alice came bounding into my room.

"No" I groaned and rolled over, in my empty bed.

"Yes! Its 3 in the afternoon Kate!"

Ok let me explain. Me and Jacob had a late night last night, he's been working a lot lately so I haven't had been able to see him in the day.

So I've been going round to his garage and sitting there watching him work on some cars, and by the time he's finished with them it's usually been around 9 in the evening. And then he insists that he takes me out, even though I'd be happy just for him to come home; eat, bath and then let me run my fingers over his face tickling him until he falls asleep. But no, he has to take me out.

So by the time we get to the cinema and watch the film, then he usually makes me go for something to eat – well he eats, I watch. And then we usually go for a walk along the beach or something, and then we come home and have some us time in bed. It's really late.

But then he has to get up for work and im still dead to the world. And it makes me feel bad.

And then the other reason for me sleeping till 3 is well – I like to sleep, and im 18.

"Kate, get up! The party starts at 7!" Oh yea. And tonight is Halloween. And Alice is throwing a party.

I managed to drag myself out of bed, and then sit around for a while watching True Blood with Emmett.

And then Alice ruined it, and made me start getting ready.

I was dressing up as Snow White, with my own personal touch of course. It was more of a fancy dress party rather than a Halloween party.

And only the women in this family were dressing up well all of us expect for Esme.

And Jacob refused point blank to dress up, even when I was sitting on him in bed bouncing up and down saying "I can be little red riding hood. And you can be the big bad wolf" but no he wouldn't have it. Although he said we could play that game whenever, just not in public.

He's a cheeky one.

And he's in work today, so he's coming straight over after he finishes. And I can't wait for him to see me in my outfit.

Alice is dressing up as Tinker Bell from Peter Pan – which I think is quite fitting.

Rosalie is going as the Ice Queen from Narnia, again fitting.

Renesmee is going as Cinderella. Bella is going as Belle from Beauty and the beast.

Emily is going as a pumpkin – no im just joking. She's showing, but not enough to cut it as a pumpkin. So she's going as a semi slutty pirate, well after all she is pregnant.

And then there's me as a full on slutty Snow White.

Rosalie focused on me the most, while I was getting ready. And don't ask me how she did it but she made me look paler than I already was. My hair was full of volume – like to the max. And it even had a little red bow in it. My eyes were lightly lined but with big lashes, and I had deep red lips and my cheeks had the tiniest of blush.

And as for the costume, well it raised a few eyebrows.

It was like Snow White's with the bodice/corset, and puffy sleeves with a very short yellow skirt. And id added my own extra bits to it; I was wearing black stocking and suspenders, with red heels.

Carlisle nearly burst a blood vessel when he saw me, and Emmett's jaw hit the ground. So I knew it was good.

Alice had decorated the entire living room and kitchen and well everywhere; the drive leading to the house, the entrance room, with lights and Halloween decorations. And the lights were turned off in the house, and there was even a DJ and proper strobe disco lights – the lot! And the music was blasting. Just the way I liked it.

There was even a punch that looked like blood.

Everyone started arriving at 7, lots of people id never met before, but knew Bella, Alice and Edward. And they all kept saying that they haven't changed a bit – and what was their secret.

And it wasn't long before everyone got dancing, and drinking the never ending punch and eating the Halloween style food.

Some guys tried to trap into dancing with them, but I managed to escape.

I was more hungry than ever tonight, and it was killing me.

Lara Christian and Jen all arrived at around 8 and screeched and screamed when they saw me.

Lara was dressed in the standard bunny costume, Christian was dressed as a pimp, and Jen had actually gone with the Halloween theme and was dressed as a cat. They all looked really amazing.

"Jen!" I screeched when I first saw her, she had on the tightest leather trousers I'd ever seen.
I hugged her and I couldn't help but notice her perfume "Oh my god Jen! Your perfume is amazing! Let me smell?" I grabbed her wrist and pressed my nose on the inside where people spray their perfume. Oh god. It was the most amazing perfume id ever smelt.

"What perfume is that?" I was still sniffing her wrist.

"Uh, it's just a Britney Spears one, the one in the blue bottle" I sniffed again, then dropped her wrist.

"Oh, well it doesn't smell much like it really. But I like it" we all just laughed and then I showed them to the drinks and the food.

I was sure that someone must have sprayed perfume while they were all dancing because everywhere I turned my head I kept catching the most amazing smells.

"Girls" Christians voice was mischievous "Look what I snuck from my parents drink cabinet" then he pulled out a bottle of vodka.

"Oh well done Chris! Im proud of you" I nudged him, and then he poured some into all of our punches.

It wasn't enough to get us drunk but it was enough to make us all feel like dancing.

We must have been dancing for ages, because when I looked at the clock it was almost 10. And Jacob still wasn't here.

Where was he?

Then I caught his scent, I couldn't miss it – ever. And I rushed over to the front door.

"Jacob!" I shouted, and practically threw myself at him.

His arms wrapped around me and he pulled me close to him, I could smell the oil and the general smells of the garage on him, but I could also smell his stunning scent.
And I pressed my face into his neck, and moaned.

"I missed you too" he laughed a little then pulled me back and his eyes widened.

"What the HELL are you wearing?" his eyes shot up and down my body.

"What don't you like it?" this boy had the power to destroy me.

He swallowed hard and then met my eyes again.

"Yes of course I like it. I love it. You look amazing." I giggled and leaned in for a kiss.

"I just wish I was the only one to see you wearing this kind of thing" He'd backed me up against a dark corner of the room without me even knowing, and he ran his hands up and down my thighs playing with the suspenders.

"But baby" I breathed against his lips "You'll get to see my in just these" he groaned and kissed me hard and I couldn't help but hitch my leg up a little to wrap around him lower leg.

His hands flitted between my legs and I gasped against his lips, and that made him kiss me even harder.

"I can smell you Kate" he was practically growling "Your scent is driving me wild"

His hand was still between my legs, and his other was holding my waist tightly.

"It's what you do to me Jake" I was practically breathless.

"GET A ROOM!" someone shouted and then wolf whistled. Jacob held me tighter and growled quietly, and glared in the direction of the voice.

He pulled back a little and I dropped my leg.

"Im gonna' go change my top, then go find the boys" he mumbled against my lips.

"Ok, I need to go entertain my friends before they think I've run off." He liked his lips.

"We'll finish this tonight" he used his special alpha voice the one he used on me, and then he kissed me again.

Once Jacob had left and I wasn't consumed by his scent anymore, the strong perfume smell hit me like a sledge hammer. And it really made me edgy. What the hell was that smell?

It was everywhere.

I found Lara, Jen and Christian still dancing, so I joined them, trying to ignore the intense smell.

There was a smash that could barely be heard over the music, but it was quite close so I heard it. Someone had smashed on of Esme glass ornaments.

"Hang on guys, let me go get something to clean that up" I don't think they heard me, because when I came back with a brush and pan, Jen had taken her shoes off, and had stood right in the glass.

Fuck sake!

"Oh my god Jen!" Christian screeched at her.

"What! My feet hurt; I had to take them off! I didn't see it!"

I came closer and she was sitting on the floor, with her foot resting on her opposite thigh.

"What the hell happened?" I snapped at her.

"I stood in the glass" then she stretched out her foot to me. She might as well have rammed it in my face.

"Oh god" was all I could manage. My throat burned. I could smell the blood. I could taste it. I could hear it! Swishing around in her veins. I wanted to touch- NO! I stopped myself.

I dropped the dust pan and brush and swallowed hard.

"Kate can you get a bandage?"
I blinked.

"Oh yes, bandage. Right."

And then I bolted for the front door. As soon as I was outside, I ran around the side of the house and stood out the back, I finally let in a gulp of air.

What the hell was happening to me?

I never saw the point in pacing; it usually gets right on my nerves. But tonight I paced.

Back and forth, back and forth. Along the grass at the bottom of the porch.

I could smell the blood, I could practically taste it. I wanted to touch it! What was wrong?

My throat burnt more than it did when I was in the hospital, that time Emily cut up her hand. And that place is full of blood; cuts, stabbings, gun wounds, garden accidents,
DIY accidents, car accidents. You name it, and there was probably blood involved.

But tonight was different.

Why?

Back and forth back and forth I went, round and round went my thoughts.

"Kate? Are you alright?"

My eyes burned, everything fucking burned. I looked up at Bella.

"Yea" I snapped, and carried on pacing. Back and forth back and forth, it was soothing. Grass, burn, plantpot, burn, grass, burn, plantpot, burn. On and on.

"You don't look alright"

"Im fine"

She left me alone.

Grass, burn, plantpot, burn, grass, burn, plantpot, burn.

"Kate?" I looked up. Carlisle, Bella and Jacob stood watching me.

My eyes burned.

I swallowed "Yea?"

Grass, burn, plantpot, burn, grass, burn, plantpot, burn.

"Are you feeling ok?"

Yea im fine" my voice strained past the burn in my throat.

"You don't look ok, babe" Jacob.

"Im fine!"

"Kate… have you missed your period?" Bella.

I stopped. why the hell would she ask me something like that? .. she probably thought that's the reason i was acting like this.

"What?" I looked at her. "No!"

I started up again.

Jacobs warm hands closed on my shoulders stopping me, and he turned me to face him.

"You have to tell me what's wrong. Is it was Bella said?" he was using that alpha voice again.

I looked at him.

"No, it's not" I almost choked on my own words.

"Then what is it?" his eyes were full of concern.

"It's the blood! It's everywhere. It's making my throat burn. Im so hungry. I don't know how to make it stop."

"We do Darlin'" it was Jasper. "I've been watching you. I knew this was coming"

Jasper Carlisle Jacob and Bella all looked at each other, then at me.

There was a blur then Jasper was alongside me, his cool hand on my arm, Jacobs warm hands didn't budge.

"I think its bout' time you hunt"
