Ok, sorry I haven't updated in forever. I was sorta writing a 100 page script in 30 days, finishing a short story series, studying for MCAS (Massachusettes Child Abuse System ;) ) and on top of that, I went to Florida which was amazing and now I'm raising money for a walk for cancer that I'm doing (main./site/TRC/RelayForLife/RelayForLifeNewEnglandDivision?pgpeditor&frid7383&px6855296 to donate) which takes place on June 14-15.

But, now I am here and writing!! So, please, don't hurt me for taking forever to update, because I am sorry, and it is so going to be worth it (I hope)

I hadn't seen any of the Cullens for a while. Sure I went to school, but they weren't there, it was almost like they were trying to hide from me.

I could feel myself go back into my frozen, blank, zombie-like state. Angela was trying to help, asking if she could do anI hadn't seen any of the Cullens for a while. Sure I went to school, but they weren't there, it was almost like they were trying to hide from me.

I could feel myself go back into my frozen, blank, zombie-like state. Angela was trying to help, asking if she could do anything to help me, but no one could.

Edward was back. He was back and had told me he still loved me. But why should he? After all, he had tons of other people to chose from, all of them prettier than me, more extraordinary than me. I was plain Jane. Nothing new about me. Why would he like me? Why had he even tried? It was clearly just a show, something he'd probably done a hundred times before.

School was coming and going, the Cullen's all there, still in their old schedules which was the hardest part, needing to sit next him. But, like before, Jake was still there to help me.

Another day of school was done. Instead of driving home I went to La Push, deciding to visit Jake again.

"Hey Bella," Billy said.

"Hey, Billy, do you know where Jake is?" I replied just as he showed behind Billy.

"Hey, Bells! It's so good to see you! How are you?" He quickly sauntered over to me, giving me a big bear hug.

"Hey, Jake! How've you been?"

"Fine! How about you?"

"Great! How's your Rabbit coming?" I asked. I had forgotten how quickly Jake made me so happy. So easily, so quickly, I loved it. Being around Jake was like being around my personal sun, exactly like I always pictured him when he had left. I could always count on Jake to make me smile.

We quickly walked to his "garage" and I gasped when I walked in.

"Jake," I cried. "You finished your car! That's so wonderful, Jake!"

It looked great! The hood was finally closed; the tools put away and the doors closed.

"Hey, it still needs to be cleaned! Do you wanna help me," he asked.

"Sure."

We both walked back to the house to get buckets, soap and rags, but as we were heading to leave out, Billy called us. Or, rather, specifically me.

"Bella, it's Dr. Cullen. He wants to talk to you," Billy said in a very reserved voice.

"Sure," I said, a little unsure of why Carlisle would be calling me at the Black's. "Hello," I said into the receiver.

"Hello, Bella," Mr. Cullen said.

"Edward, why are you calling?" I said, scared at why he was calling me at werewolf's house.

"Bella, Alice had a vision a few nights ago, the night we uh got back," he said in a hurried voice. I could barely catch his words.

"What do you mean? And slow down, I can barely understand you." I had to turn away from Jake because he was looking like he was going to turn, his body starting to shake.

"Bella, alice had a vision of Victoria. She's back. She's back and shes going to try and kill you."

I couldn't take it. I heard something hard clank to the ground, and with a shock, realized it was the phone. The room was getting dizzy and I could feel myself hyperventilating. I felt Jake's burning arms wrap me, support me and protect me. While still holding on to me, he reached down and picked up the phone.

"What do you think you're doing, calling her?" Jake yelled into the phone. I could clearly catch Edward's response.

"I'm trying to protect my love!" he shouted.

"What do you mean protect her?" Jake shouted back. "You made her nearly faint and you call that protecting her?"

I could hear Edward breathing on the other end of the phone. Jake was shaking again besides me. I could almost see Edward pinching the bridge of his nose, gathering the little patience he had left.

I tried to catch his response, but Edward had stopped yelling. But I knew what Edward was telling him because Jake immediately put the phone up and ran out of the house.

I quickly ran after him, but I only saw a wolf where Jake should have been.

"Jake," I asked in a tentative voice.

The wolf walked up to me a nudged my hand, telling me he was Jake.

"You need to tell Sam, don't you," I said to him.

Jake nodded. "Ok, well, you've got to get going, don't you?" Again, Jake nodded. "Well, I guess I'm going to go home to Charlie, get dinner going and work on my homework." Before I could even finish though, Jake was shaking his head fiercely and pushing me towards his house. "Okay, okay, I'll stay. I just need to call Charlie to let him know I'm staying for dinner, okay?" Jake looked a bit calmer. "Okay, well, be the hero, save the day and go tell Sam whatever you need to tell her." A laugh like thing came out of his throat and then he was off.
