New Species, Will Bella be safe? Chapter 4: Werewolf!, a twilight fanfic

Chapter 4

I ran to the old oak I found yesterday with my guitar and jumped on the same branch. I jumped us with ease and sighed, this reminds of my old back yard. Sigh. I felt my fingers glide over the chords.

Things are looking up, oh finally!
I thought I'd never see the day when you smile at me.
We always pull through
oh when we try,
I'm always wrong but you're never right.
You're never right!

Honestly, can you believe we crossed the world while it's asleep?
I'd never trade it in, cuz I've always wanted this!
It's not a dream anymore! Ohhh..
It's not a dream anymore! It's worth fighting for.

Could have given up so easily
I was a few cheap shots away from the end of me
Taken for granted, almost everything that I would have died for
Just yesterday,
Just yeterday

God knows the world doesn't need another band, (whoo-oa, whooo-oa!)
But what a waste it would've been! (whoo-oa, whooo-oa!)
I can't believe we almost -- (whoo-oa, whooo-oa!)
We're just getting started (whoo-oa, whooo-oa!)

I can't believe we almost hung it up (whoo-oa, whooo-oa!)
We're just getting started (whoo-oa, whooo-oa!)
I can't believe we almost hung it up (whoo-oa, whooo-oa!)
We're just getting started
We're just getting started

I sighed. I jumped from the tree branch and started back to where the house is. I slung the guitar on my back and fastened it. I heard a growl again, I started running. I heard it again. I started running faster. I couldn't place why it seems so scary, but it is. I heard it get closer, so I ran as fast as I ever have and ran straight into the house slamming the door with a loud thud and ran up to my room. I watched out of the window for some kind of animal to come out of the woods, but it didn't. I heard my mom and Jeremiah enter the house and I sighed in relief. I ran downstairs and launched myself into my mother's familiar embrace. She just laughed and hugged back. I sighed in contentment.

"Momma, I love you." I muttered. She laughed and kissed my head.

"I love you to daughter." She said happily as she brought me into the kitchen sat me on a chair. I sat and watched as she sat on the counter and smiled at me.

"Mom, have you heard anything strange in the woods, like something that makes all the hair on your neck stand up?" I asked.

"No, why?" She asked carefully.

"No reason." I muttered. "I'm gonna go to bed. I'll see you in the morning." I said as I got up and kissed her cheek. I ran up the stairs. I jumped on my bed not even bothering to change my cloths and fell asleep in a deep slumber.

I saw a big wolf coming forward. It is big, and has it's teeth bared. It's coat the darkest midnight black I have ever seen. I saw another russet color wolf come up behind him and it attacked. I saw the midnight black wolf go into shock and walked over to me and whimpered. I kneeled down and patted his head. The russet color wolf came over and put his head on my leg. I laughed and kissed his head. He grinned a big toothy grin.

I jolted up right from my bed. I heard a loud knocking on my door.

"What?" I yelled.

"Get up, it's almost one in the afternoon." Ricky laughed from the other side of the door. I laughed too and ran to my closet. I picked a black off the shoulder shirt with a pair of plain skinny jeans. I put a layer of black eye liner on. Then I put on some black mascara and black nail polish. I quickly threw on my vans and ran out of the door. I ran down stairs and inhaled the horrible smell of bacon and eggs. I started gagging.

"Who is making food?" I asked as I coughed a little.

"Mom." Ricky said simply. I laughed. He chomped on a piece of toast.

"Why are you eating?" I asked disgusted.

"Mom is making us." He said simply. He put on a sour face and chocked down the rest of the toast. "I'm done."

"Ugh, please no mom." I said as she handed me some toast and a juice box.

"Yes, now eat." She said as she shoved the food into my hands. I sighed and put on a sour face as I bit into the buttery toast. I ate the whole thing and threw the second piece away. I sipped the juice box.

"Happy? Now can I go puke up that horrible disgusting trash?" I asked hopefully.

"If you must." She said as she munched on some bacon. I ran up stairs and heaved over the toilet. After that was done. I quickly brushed my teeth and ran back down stairs in record time.

"Mom, I'm gonna go out for a while. I'll be back later." I yelled as I grabbed my guitar and ran out the door.

"Okay." My mom yelled back. I threw my baby in the back seat and jumped in the front seat. I stepped on the gas and took off in the direction of La Push. I don't know why but since I saw him in the woods, I can't stop thinking about him. Maybe we can just work on the car. Yeah, that might work. Then, I will go see Bella. I stepped on the gas pedal and headed in the direction of La Push. I felt giddy as I pulled into the drive way of the all too familiar red house. I stopped quietly and jumped out of the car and hurried to the front door. I was greeted by the same guy from last night and his face broke into a warm smile.

"Hey, is Jacob here?" I asked.

"Yeah, but he is really sick." The man said sadly. I felt my face fall.

"Uh, okay tell him that I stopped by and to feel better." I muttered. He nodded and shut the door quickly. I looked around and sighed. I started to walk over to the car. I heard a small tap and twirled around and searched for something. I caught sight of Jacob in the window. When I did I stopped dead in my tracks. I looked straight in his eye and I felt everything stop. Nothing mattered but him. I felt every string was and there is only one left holding me down. I saw his face break into a breath taking smile. I saw him move from the window and I thought he left, so as I recovered and unwillingly started to get in to my car. I heard the front door slam open and Jake ran from the front door and ran over to me. He pulled me into a big bear hug and I felt all my worries about the wolves go away. I sighed contently in his arms.

"I thought your sick?" I laughed, he got a nervous smile.

"Yeah, well…I uh." He hesitated. He looked down avoiding my gaze.

"What?" I asked. I looked him in the eye and I smiled.

"I want you to meet my dad." He said quickly. He let go of me and I felt my face fall. He grabbed my hand pulled me into the house. "Hey dad!" He called. I saw Billy wheel into the living room as we walked in. He got a frown, but before I could look at Jake Billy's face broke into the happiest smile I have ever seen on a persons face.

"Dad, this is Skyla, Skyla, this is my dad Billy." Jake said happily. But seriously, am I missing something? I mean why are they so happy all of a sudden? I saw Jake nod in the corner of my eye.

"Hi." I said simply as I stuck out my hand hesitantly, Billy just laughed.

"Oh don't give me that come here, give me a hug." He laughed. I leaned over and gave him a quick hug. It reminded me of when my dad used to hug me.

"Why don't you kids go hang out in the garage. I am gonna go hang out with Charlie." Billy said as a car pulled into the drive way. "My cue to leave." He muttered as Jacob wheeled him over to the car and helped him in. I saw him run back to the house with a big grin on his face.

"I thought you were sick?" I asked with a laugh. I saw Jake hesitate as he looked into his eyes.

"Uh, I am, I just, um, well, I am feeling a little better today." He sighed. I saw indecision in his eyes but I ignored it and followed him into the garage. I finally took notice that he looks at least 6 inches taller, and he is more muscular. He cut his hair too.

"Why did you cut your hair?" I asked with a frown. I liked his long hair too. It was soft like silk.

"I felt like I needed a change." He said with a shrug. I could tell he is hiding something, but I don't want to push it.

"So, what do we need to do?" I asked.

"It just needs a good wash." He said happily. I saw his eyes till held something I couldn't place, and it irked me beyond belief.

"Uh, Jake?" I asked. He hesitantly met my gaze and then looked back down.

"Yeah?" He asked as he turned around to look at me again.

"Well, I uh. Never mind." I said as I jumped down the steps and walked over to the car. He laughed and walked over to me.

"What? You can ask me anything." He said truthfully. I saw fear in his eyes.

"Promise you won't get mad 'kay?" He nodded. "Well, you changed a lot in one day. And you well, uh, you seem hesitant. Like you're hiding something."

"Uh, I knew I wouldn't be able to hide to." He whispered. I saw his shoulders slump and he looked nervous almost immediately.

"What?" I asked with a small chuckle.

"Well this is going to freak you out but trust me." I nodded. "Well, I uh, I am a werewolf."
