Special Arrangement

Chap6: Home At Last

JPOV

I can't believe they would let Leah do that; my own dad let her keep me from my imprint. Do they not understand how much I need her, how much I love her? I knew Leah was a jealous spiteful bitch, but I never in a million years would have thought that she would do this sort of thing- hell I didn't think it was a possibility because nobody could be that heartless.

I was so enraged that I stayed in the woods for three days straight because I couldn't calm down to phase back and to be honest I didn't want to see my dad either because he betrayed me. When he made me apologize to Uley I was barely able to compose myself, but to condone a punishment let alone a punishment by Leah that just cut me deep. My pack didn't bother to come look for me or check up on me and I'm surprised I figured they would want to know if I was alright or I thought maybe Billy or Leah would send them to make sure I didn't sneak off to the Cullens which I almost did on several occasions.

Sam's Pack just ignored me as if I wasn't there except for the occasional snort when they saw me at the start of their patrols. I could see in Sam's head that Leah was serious when she said she would make him her slave until she was healed and almost laughed when I saw a memory he let slip of him walking past a mirror wearing a pink hairnet, pink rubber gloves with a matching pink frilly apron with flying bees on it that said "Check your boo bees". I have to hand it to Leah she sure as hell has an imagination it's bitchy and spiteful but it's there.

When I was finally able to phase back I was just about to come out of the woods and cross the road to my house when I realized I ripped the pants I had on when I phased and was butt ass naked. I went further back into the woods to make sure no one could see me and ducked behind a tree trying to figure out how to get into the house without being seen. I'm pretty sure a six-eight man running across the road naked would spread like wild fire especially on La Push rez; everybody is already wondering why we're always in the woods and look at us funny or like we're funny if you know what I mean.

I heard leaves crunch behind me and sucked in a breath and hoped it wasn't who it smelled like it was, but of course I'm such a lucky person so it wasn't…not!

"Look who finally decided to join the land of two feet. You know I'm pretty sure streaking is illegal."-Paul said and I turned around to see him smirking with his arms crossed.

"Fuck off Paul I'm not in the mood."-I grumbled trying to hide my manly bits with my hands, but that made him laugh.

"It's a good thing you're not me or your hands would be nowhere near big enough!"-he smirked and started walking toward my house.

"Where the fuck are you going go to your own house"-I yelled after him

"Come over here and make me."-he yelled from the porch laughing and I cursed under my breath as he kept laughing.

"What are you here for anyway?"-I questioned from my spot behind a tree and he shrugged.

"I just got off of patrol and I wanted to see Rachel. Can I go out on a limb and say you need clothes?"-he said in a bored tone

"No I need you to take a picture- what the hell does it look like of course I need clothes!"-I yelled angrily and he sighed rolling his stupid eyes.

"I guess you want me to get you something huh?"-he said in the same bored tone

"No shit."-I grumbled

"Now that doesn't sound very nice maybe I should let you stay out here all na-tu-rel unless you ask me nicely."-he smiled and taped his foot "Well I'm waiting."

I growled and clenched my teeth; I love Rachel and all, but I'm afraid I'm going to have to kill her boyfriend.

"Can you get me something to put on?"-I said through my clenched teeth

"Say please."-he sing songed and I had to grab the tree to keep from phasing.

"Please you ass now go get me something to put on!"-I yelled and he laughed going into the house to get me something. I sighed and waited impatiently by the tree for him and heard the door open again and his heavy footsteps approach.

"You know it's your own fault you're in this situation in the first place."-he said throwing the shorts hitting me in the face and I scowled at him and muttered not so nice things under my breath as he walked away back to the house.

When I went to put on what I thought was shorts I phased and it took everything in me to calm down in order to phase back before someone saw me or I wound up staying like this for another three days. I heard loud obnoxious laughing from inside the house and knew it was Paul.

"Paul I swear to God I'm going to kill you!"-I yelled, but had no choice but to put it on unless I wanted to give my neighbors a show.

I poked my head from around the tree to see if anyone was out and ran like hell across the road and just when I reached the steps my neighbor and her friends who also happen to be my neighbors came out of the house and froze when they saw me. My eyes widened and I charged up the steps and almost breaking the door and slammed it behind me. Paul's dumb ass was on the floor laughing hysterically. I went over and kicked him in the stomach.

"You fucking bastard this isn't what I meant when I said get me something to put on!"-I yelled angrily

"Hey don't blame me you weren't exactly specific."-he said getting off the floor wiping his eyes with one of his hands behind his back.

"You know damn well I didn't mean thi-"I was cut off by a blinding light

"Did you ju-"-another two flashes went off and Paul was laughing hard.

"Did you just take a picture?"-I screeched balling up my fists.

"Hey you said take a picture."-he said shrugging and smirking

"Paul you asswhole give me the camera."-I said stalking toward him and he started backing up ready to run.

"Nope, wait til the guys see this-oh and Leah she's going to-"I cut him off by diving on him.

I wrestled him to the floor and he laughed the whole time. I had him pinned to the floor beneath me with my legs on either side of him when the door opened and I heard someone or should I say several gasps. Paul laughed so hard he was gasping for air, but I froze and dared a look over my shoulder to see dad, Seth, and Sam standing in the doorway with their mouths hanging open.

"Son, why are you on top of Paul wearing a pink mini skirt…and no underwear?"-dad asked still frozen and Seth and Sam eyes looked like they were about to fall out of their sockets.

I cleared my throat and got off of Paul and tried to pull down, I'm assuming Rachel's, skirt to save what little dignity I had left if any. All three of them just stood there with their mouths open and eyes popping out.

"Well…um…see…it's not what it looks like I swear."-I stammered getting redder by the minute.

"Yes it does; Jacob was totally trying to rape me."-Paul said in a serious tone and their eyes widened. I turned and punched him in the face and had some satisfactory of hearing his nose crunch as blood poured out. He glared up at me then smiled raising the camera and wiggling it along with his eyebrows. When I made a grab for it I heard groans and Paul dodged me and ran out of the room .

"Jacob please for the love of God put some clothes on mainly underwear."-dad said covering his eyes and I grabbed the skirt and held it down as I bolted out of the room up the steps and slammed by bedroom door.

After I changed and got the heart to come out of the room I went into the kitchen to get something to eat and unfortunately all of them were in there and got quiet and they wouldn't look me in the eye, well Paul did smiling and I gave him the finger.

"So…"-dad said with a quizzical look that Seth and Sam also shared and I sighed and turned to them.

"I…well you know I've been in wolf form for the past three days and well I didn't exactly have time to tie my pants to my legs before I phased, so I didn't have anything to put on. Lucky me Paul was here and he gave me that to put on instead of getting me shorts."-I said glaring at Paul who kept smirking. Dad looked like he wanted to laugh along with Sam but Seth looked confused.

"Wait, that doesn't explain why you were on top of him like that."-Seth said and dad and Sam's amused looks turned quizzical once again.

"Well when I got in here Paul decided to snap some pictures of me."-I glared at him again, but this time he fell on the floor laughing.

Seth looked like he tried to hold it in for about two seconds before he joined in on the laughter. Sam held up the papers he had in his hands like he was reading them, but I knew he was laughing by the way the papers were shaking and dad kept clearing his throat, coughing, and wiping his face as he turned redder and redder.

"Well son...uh…glad to have you on all twos again."-he said in a tight voice with watery eyes.

I shook my head and turned my attention back to the fridge.

"Well Sam I'll talk to you later and don't forget to look that over for me to see if you find anything."-dad said quietly and shook Sam's hand as he stood up.

"What are you doing here anyway Sam?"-I questioned not knowing his reason for being here since we don't exactly like each other.

"Billy asked me to come over and look at something for him, don't worry I'm leaving Leah will kill me if I'm late."-he said stiffly and moved toward the back door with the papers in his hands.

"What did you ask him to look at?"-I questioned Billy when Sam was out the door.

"Could be nothing could be everything doesn't really matter right now anyway."-he said dismissively rolling into the living room. I grumbled under my breath and searched the cabinets for something to eat.

"Hey Seth"-I said over my shoulder not sure of our terms now that I hurt his sister, so I tried to be nonchalant as possible.

"Hey Jake"-he said watching me. I could still feel the tension, but he called me Jake and not Jacob so that's a good sign. Just when I was reaching for some Doritos Paul's fat ass snatches them up and starts stuffing his face.

"You saw me reaching for those."-I growled. I haven't eaten in three days and if I don't eat real soon somebody is going to die.

"Too slow."-he said with crumbs flying out of his mouth; I took a step towards him and he put his hand up.

"You wouldn't want to do that now would you?"-he said smirking and I narrowed my eyes at him.

"Rachel isn't even here so why don't you just leave?"-I said slamming the cabinet door.

"I'll just wait in her room I have people I need to text anyway."-he said winking at me walking out of the room still stuffing his face. I sighed and sat down across from Seth.

"Dad where the hell is all the food there's nothing in there but TV dinners and beer?"-I asked as he wheeled himself in to grab one of the beers.

"Well that's all I really eat now a days unless Rachel, Sue, or Leah cooks me something. I don't exactly have anybody else here to cook for so there's no need to stock the fridge."-his tone was sad but he smiled at me and started to wheel himself back into the living room.

"Dad what are you talking about I still live here."-I said and he turned around to face me.

"Do you son because in the last five years I've seen you maybe once or twice a month."-he said and I gulped feeling guilty.

"I still live here and I'm sure I'm over here more often than that."-I said sounding unsure shaking my head and he raised an eyebrow.

"Oh really? Did you know the stove has been broken for almost a year or that the car has been broken down for even longer than that or that the heater is broken so I use kerosene heaters to warm the house?"-he stated more than questioned and I sat there dumbfounded.

"Dad why didn't you tell me?"-I said standing up and going over to him; he shrugged.

"I called but you were always busy, so I stopped trying after a couple tries. Besides I'm a grown man it's not your job to take care of me and according to you you're always here so you should have known right?"-he said raising his eyebrow and I felt so guilty I just wanted to punch myself in the face.

"Well why didn't you get one of the guys to help you or at least fix things?"-I questioned a little angry that they would let my dad live like this.

"Hey don't get mad at them they don't owe me anything and they offered, but I told them not to worry about. They were always worn out form patrolling anyway, so the job wouldn't have been done right because they would have been half asleep."-damn I felt guilty yet again. I sighed and looked down a bit ashamed of myself.

"I'm sorry dad if I would have known…I would be here more often but-"

"Nessie, yeah I know."-he said finishing my sentence and wheeled back into the living room and turned the volume up.

I stood up and leaned against the wall with my eyes closed.

"He always turns us down when we offer, but I think it's because he's scared we'll burn the house down like we did the gara-oops."-Seth said and turned back around and started humming like nothing just happened. I pushed off the wall and went to sit in front of him with my eyes wide.

"What do you mean like the garage?"-I asked and he gulped and shifted his eyes like he was trying to find an exit.

"Well…um…see…when the truck broke down we tried to fix it-"

"Who's we?"-I asked cutting him off

"Me, Collin, and Brady tried to fix it and we sort made the truck catch on fire and well with all the flammable things in there it kind of set on fire and burned down.

"WHAT!"-I yelled and he cringed back

"We managed to save the truck! It wasn't my fault anyway I was working under the hood they were working over it and on the gas tank! The fires started from where they were."-he said with his hands up in defense and my jaw dropped.

"Fires it was more than one? Why the hell were they working on the fucking gas tank? If the truck broke down i-"I stopped and took deep breaths before I ended up phasing right here in the living room.

"Hey we thought we could fix it men are supposed to be able to do that sort of thing. You were always the mechanic not us."-he said with puppy dog eyes and I rolled mines.

"No wonder it burned down you're under Jacob's command and we all know how manly he is."-Paul said coming back into the kitchen and grabbed a beer.

"Shut up Paul"-I said shaking my head not believing my ears

"Don't get mad at me it's not my fault, I would have done it myself, but for some reason we have to run crazy patrols and have to fight vampires all the time…hmm I wonder why?"-he said shaking his head and rolling his eyes.

"How bad is it?"-I asked Seth

"Not bad at all Billy had it remodeled that's why he doesn't have money to waste on fixing things around the house. Whenever we aren't patrolling or have plans we try to help when we can, but you know how stubborn he is. The only ones who scare him enough to get him to listen on occasion are mom and Leah and Rachel when Paul isn't around."-Seth said and Paul rolled his eyes.

"What do you mean Leah? No offense but she doesn't help anybody but herself."-I scoffed skeptically

"Actually she's been helping Billy for years now if you were here you would know that."-Paul said glaring from his spot by the fridge and I glared at him before Seth interjected more so to keep a fight from starting rather than fill me in on what's been going on around here.

"Yeah she's always helping him when she doesn't have to patrol, she cooks him dinner and cleans up the house whenever she can since Rachel is usually preoccupied."-Seth said looking over at Paul who grinned.

"Don't blame me Rachel was a freak when I first imprinted on her all I had to do was show up and she-"

"Paul shut up right now"-I growled and he smirked

"I help him out by driving him around whenever I can, well me, Brady, and Collin it's the least we can do after, well you know. That's why I'm here I picked him up from the library at the Elder's building."-Seth said saving Paul's ass again

"Why was he at that library?"-Paul asked and Seth shrugged

"I don't know all I do is pick up and drop off no questions asked."-he said just when my stomach growled loudly.

"Damn I'm hungry and there's nothing here to eat thanks to your fat ass."-I said to Paul

"Your welcome- oh you might not want to go on Facebook anytime soon."-he smiled at me and I growled

"Hey we have plenty of food at my house and the guys are coming over anyway, so you might as well come over."-Seth said and I sat there eager to leave wanting desperately to eat something and get away from Paul, but there was one little problem.

"Oh um Leah won't be there she's at the hospital so mom can check out her progress."-Seth said noticing my hesitation.

"Oh she still not healed?"-I asked feeling slightly guilty until I remembered her punishment.

"Yeah it's taking a little longer because she phased the day after it happened re-opening her wounds because somebody made her mad."-Seth said glaring at Paul.

"She shouldn't have called me a dick."-he said

"You are a dick"-I said and he gave me the finger

"No she called you a pencil dick when you decided to phase ripping your clothes and had to run through our house naked to get something to wear."-Seth said and I laughed out loud and stood up.

"Come on Seth I'm hungry as hell."-I said and we walked out the kitchen and to the front door, but I paused.

"Hey dad I'm going over to Seth's."-I said timidly

"Okay son don't get into trouble"-he said without looking at me

"Maybe later tonight I could make dinner and we could eat together?"-I asked quietly and he turned to look at me smiling.

"That would have been nice son, but like I told you the stoves broken, but thanks I appreciate the offer."

"Don't worry about the stove I'll fix it and I'm not taking no for an answer that way the stove will be fixed and we can spend some time together."-I said hopeful and his smile got wider.

"Sounds like a plan."-we smiled at each other for a second

"I know it's not under the circumstances neither of us wanted, but it's good to have you home Jacob even if it's only for a little while."-he said quietly and turned his head back to the TV.

"Yeah I guess it is."-I whispered and left the house.

AN: Hope you like! I decided to have a drama free chap while showing how much Jacob has neglected everyone who doesn't sparkle. But, next chap he & Leah see each other for the first time since she punished him*grins*. Somehow I managed to find time to write even though I had work and I have like two more free hours, so I'll work on the next chap. The whole story is in my head from start to finish I just need to write it, but semester did just start so we'll see how it goes.

The needs of the many out way the needs of the few…so I need you to read then I need you to review…or Beyoncé's baby news will be all over the net…oh wait it already is*rolls eyes*(like that itchbay ain't have a surrogate*rolls eyes again*)
