A/N: I'm sorry it's been FOREVER really I am but I'm working on two stories now (I know bad habit), wait you don't know it's a bad habit of mine but it is. Well this is probably going to be a short-ish chapter due to the fact I don't have HOURS to work on it I have about 32 minutes and counting down so lets get to this stuff.

Chapter Four: What goes on in her mind

That big fast last year yeah that was my teacher's trying to get me to skip the 7th and 8th grade. And they passed it and now I'm in the 9th grade a 12 year old in the 9th grade while Jake was in the Junior year. And of course people had to make fun of me with my Hello Kitty back pack the only reason why I had it was because my mom told me I was going to be in the 7th grade, where most of my friends are.

Well I went onto my first class Geometry which I shared with Jacob who had failed this class last year and has to take again this year. I sat next to him got my binder out that was supposed to be for Algebra but was now dubbed the Geometry binder. I got some pencils out and the teacher handed out the school code of conduct.

Jacob kept playfully nudging me during class as she read the conduct out law at first I couldn't help but try to stifle a giggle or two from escaping but it was starting to annoy me and I told him to stop and he just stared at me and smiled. I had found out that he wasn't taking Geometry when I was younger he was taking a section of geometry out of his algebra book that day when I was young. I smiled at him and took his hand in mine like we always did at home and blush appeared on his face it was a small faint almost unnoticeable but I know him to well.

"Alli-bear we can't do this at school." He said but didn't untangle his fingers from mine and I looked confused at him, we've always done this and he told me if I'm ever scared to hold his hand and everything would be okay. "Another thing, don't talk to the boys here, they're all nasty." He said still holding my hand but sliding our hands under the desks.

"Okay if you say so." I said smiling nodding my head as the teacher continued on with the forever lasting student conduct code. I smiled and started drawing with my left hand, which was my dominant hand which helps because Jacob is right handed. I smiled softly at him trying hard to ignore the butterflies in my stomach. Over the years I've gradually grown this admiration for Jacob. He's been there everyday in my life sense the first time we met, and that means a lot to me.

The bell rang a little while later and at that time I untangled me and Jake's fingers from each other and put the binder in my backpack and went to grab it but Jacob grabbed it in one swift movement and smiled at me and escorted me to our next class and smiled down at me. We bumped into Christa so we stopped to talk to her for a while. Well Jake stopped to talk, I just stopped.

"Hey baby." Christa said before she kissed him passionately throwing her arms around his neck. Jacob blushed hard and pulled back shortly and looked down at me embarrassed.

"Hey babe, how are you doing? Like your classes." He said holding her hands smiling, you could tell he was in love with her, just the way he smiled, the way his eyes sparkled when he saw her. I sighed softly and made my way to the ceramics class by myself.

I sat down and received a sketch book and put my name in it in a neat cursive with sharpie and passed the sharpie onto the next person. I smiled softly as Jacob came in and put my book back down next to me and sat down and got a sketch book as well. I smiled softly at his sloppy hand writing, I took his sketchbook and erased his name and wrote it in for him. He laughed.

"Thank you Alli." He said and smiled at me. I smiled softly feeling awkward, I started drawing and made absent minded scribbles. The rest of the day went by in an uninteresting slow pace, I sighed softly as I started walking out to the bus meeting my brother downstairs immediately and started walking together in an awkward way as he tried to make it look like we're not even though mom had clearly told him to walk me to the bus. Out of no where Jacob ran up behind us and caught up to us breathing only the slightest bit heavily.

"Hey Alli, Mikey." Jacob said as Mikey rolled his eyes crossing his arms across his chest. I giggled softly at Mikey's reaction. Jacob laughed and playfully pushed him.

We eventually got to our bus and I hugged Jake goodbye even though I wanted so badly not to say it. I let go regretting it and got onto the bus and sat down in the front by myself looking out the window getting deep into my thoughts, reflecting upon today. I continued to look out the window until my stop at the very last came, me and my brother and his friends got off. I walked home by myself as Mikey stayed back for a while to talk to his friends, mom was going to be mad at him later for this. But I didn't care.

I had to go home and start my 2 hours of homework. Starting with Geometry.

Jacob's POV:

I drove down the long road with Christa in the truck, I was going to drop off Christa then go back home. I wanted to go to Alli's but I couldn't, Sam wanted a meeting today between all of us to talk about some stupid stuff. I don't know I wasn't paying attention all I know is that they needed to talk and it couldn't wait. We got to Christa's house that looked a little run down on the outside but was nice on the inside. We got out and I walked her to her porch, I held her around her waist and kissed her softly on her lips, she wrapped her arms around my neck.

What I have with Christa, well it's difficult, she doesn't know about me being a wolf - and therefore doesn't know about my imprint. I love Christa a lot, but not like I love Alli, Christa is a beautiful woman and any guy would be lucky to be with her, but I'm not head-over-heals like I should be. I feel so guilty when I think about Alli when I'm with her, she deserves better.

We unwrapped ourselves from each other and said our goodbyes, I got back in my truck and started driving to my house when I got there I saw everyone's cars in my driveway I parked the car and got out confused. I made my way up to the house and walked into the already open house with practically the whole pack was in my living room.

"Hey guys?" I asked confused closing the door behind me.

"We need to talk about Allison." Sam said looking seriously I suddenly became nervous, I hadn't exactly told the guys about the imprint part. They only knew about us being friends, that's all.

"She's only a little girl." Sam added.

But she isn't, not really, she's the smartest girl I know at the age of 12 and almost 13. She's also the most sensitive girl and almost in a way motherly, she will always stop and ask if you're okay even if you don't know you're not yet. She was bullied pretty badly but she won't let anyone know that I didn't know that until I went to visit her at lunch, and I over heard her crying in the hallway. She won't tell anyone, because she doesn't want them to worry about her problems, when she worries so much about others. And every time I hear her cry in her bedroom, it breaks my heart a little every time till I can't take it anymore.

She's too grown up for her own good, if they knew what goes on in her mind they'd say differently.

A/N: So I lied a little bit... I've been working on it for several days now trying to make this absolutely perfect for you guys, I really love your reviews, I also love constructive reviews (but please try not to be too harsh). I currently have someone helping me with the edits for the first couple chapters (but they are working on exams and stuff so it's not gonna be like reposted right away.
