Thank you reviews!
I don't own twilight or anything you recognize from twilight. I do own Bonnie and Paige and anyone you don't recognize. Don't forget that I need at least two reviews per chapter for the next one to come out so I appreciate reviews, flames are welcome, and criticism is welcomed.
And here is chapter 6!
A Theory I Hope Is Wrong
Paige woke up, she didn't know how much later, but she was covered in sweat. She shoved at Jake, thinking her warmth was to be blamed on her still being on the couch with him. Her hand met air. Her eyes popped open, searching her room for the source of the heat, the bed covers were piled on the floor along with the sweat pants she had changed into. The fan in her room was even on full blast, she fanned herself with her hand as she walked to the bathroom across the hall. Pulling out a washrag from under the sink, she soaked it in ice cold water, pressing it to her arms and head. She repeated this a few times, before she looked into the mirror pushing back her hair which had stuck to her forehead because of the sweat.
Paige's stomach churned, she launched herself to the toilet gagging as bile rose in her throat. She grabbed the towel behind her wiping her mouth, though it didn't really do any good because she started to puke again. It continued like that for what felt like hours but couldn't have been more that fifteen minutes. She rolled up another towel, placing it behind her head, making a pillow against the shower door.
"Paige?" She drunkenly glanced up from her place on the floor, her stomach settling for a moment. "Are you sick?" he asked, kneeling down next to her.
"No, you just caught me having a bulimic moment. Sorry," she replied dryly as another wave of nausea hit her. Jacob shifted so he was leaning against the counter, pulling back her hair for her.
"Do you want me to wake up Billy?" Paige shook her head, and then stopped because of the awkward dizziness. He sighed leaning back and closing his eyes.
Jake woke up every time his sister moved, until finally she fell asleep too.
The next morning, Paige awoke in her own bed. She felt a lot better, walking to the bathroom to take a shower, and then back to her room slipping on a pair of jeans and a tee shirt that she had decided belonged to Jake, Quil, or Embry. It dawned on her later that she decided whose shirt it was by the scent on the cotton. She walked out to the kitchen, pulling out eggs, sausage, pancake mix, bacon, biscuits, and multiple kinds of fruit. She cracked five eggs in the skillet, mixed the pancake batter and poured it on one half of the griddle, while laying the sausage and bacon on the other half, and finally shoving the biscuit dough in the oven. Jake came in sniffing the air, he looked down at the short girl,
"Hey, you're supposed to be sick."
Paige smiled,
"I feel better! Jake came up and pressed his hand to her forehead, hissing, he yanked it back,
"You're burning up Paige, go back to bed and I'll bring you some water or something." Billy rolled in, cutting her protest off.
"What's the matter you two?"
"Did you hear Paige last night? She was throwing up the whole night, and she's really warm. Like not normal warm." Jake explained, Billy looked a bit worried,
"Paige, come here." obediently she kneeled down; Billy placed his hand in front of her forehead, not touching it. "She is warm. Paige do you feel…" He trailed off when Jake and Paige's head whipped around simultaneously, looking out the window to the woods.
"Who's calling you?" She asked quietly, 'Sam' she nodded at the projected thought.
"Come on, were gonna go see Sam about this. I have a theory, I just hope I'm wrong," Jake muttered the last part to himself as he dragged his sister out of the house and towards the woods. They ran staying neck and neck with each other until they entered the clearing. Paige stopped abruptly, stepping back behind Jake as she was suddenly surrounded by seven horse sized wolves.
"It's okay." Jake assured, looking over each wolf.
A black wolf stepped forward; Jake took a few steps away, far enough to change without hurting Paige, and turned.
"Jacob, what is your sister doing here?" Sam asked, Paige could hear though her connection with Jake and the others could hear her through the reverse effects of the connection.
"Sam, I think…I think Jake brought me here for a few reasons…could you, maybe turn into a…human?" Paige asked, Sam wolf snorted and the others all stepped forward with their ears back small snarls erupting from their throats. Sam commanded them to back off, trotted behind a tree and reemerged as a human, shirtless with jeans slung low on his hips. Paige gave the older male a once over, he was a lot better looking than she'd thought. The russet Jake wolf turned his head and snapped at her, probably because she was checking out his leader, not of her own accord though she refused to actually like any of their company. Sam came up to them, instantly glaring at the twins.
"So, do I want to know why I heard you in my head?"
It took a while, a really long while, but Sam and the others finally half way understood what was going on. Sam talked with the elders and decided Paige's situation had to do with her and Jake being twins. A split gene or something, so they accepted her, she would run with them…sort of. She'd more or less run after them, though after a few days her senses started to enhance she could hear them running around her, the sticks that snapped under their weight, the leaves that crumbled. It fascinated her, and then she was faster she could keep up better, catch them easier. Sam told them that until she actually changed, they would train her like that. After school, she would run after them, have to track them down with the lack of a sense. They tried Sunday before school started back, they put a blindfold over her eyes and she had to utilize her other abilities to see through the forest and get to them.
Paige was good at that; she stayed tapped inside Jake's head, which kept her inside everyone else's. She found that she liked running with them, it helped her practice for track, but she knew Monday would revert back to the old ways though. Jake would hang around Embry and Quil and she would return with Bonnie and the dancers, Sam told her she should just drop her extra activities and stop hanging out with Bonnie, to keep away the temptation of telling her what she is. She'd simply told him to go to hell.
