Question do you guys want it to be Bella and Jacob or Bella and Embry?

Nicole's POV

"Hey did you guys know there's a red mustang parked outside your house." I knew that voice, when someone betrays your best friend you remember it no matter what, even if it's been years since I saw either one. Paul Lahote the player of the rez.

I slightly shook my head before turning around to face him, immediately putting my hands on my hips giving attitude. "Actually Lahote, the mustang is mine."

Oh boy did I enjoy watching his mouth drop open, nobody ever talked to Paul like that except me apparently. But when he finally made eye contact with me he just froze as if I just slapped him across the face and he went into shock. The more I stared back at him the more freaked out I got, he started to look as if he saw love at first sight which is stupid because I've seen him before.

"NO!" Bella shouted, causing me to turn away from Paul to look at her.

Before I could ask her what was wrong, the guy who answered the door asked to see Paul outside. That left me alone with Bella and the girl Emily who I kind of remember except she didn't have those scars before.

"Everything okay Bella, I can go if I ruined your plans. I just wanted to stop in and say hi and see how you were."

"No, no stay really. I want you to get to know my family, and we need to catch up. Um you already met Emily, Sam's fiance." She said.

"And Sam is the one that answered the door?" I asked to clarify.

"Yes, the one next to Jacob was Embry and Jared was next to him." She explained.

"Great, Embry was the one with the crush on you right?" I laugh making her blush just like old times.

"You'll learn Embry is a huge flirt to all the im-girls" Emily told me laughing with me.

"How do you know Paul?" Bella asks me looking out the door at the boys talking about something.

"Oh he dated Jessica, my old friend, but then he cheated on her with my ex-friend Lauren. I think they were in your grade right?" Bella nods as I explain.

"So you're not a fan of Paul?" Emily asked knowing full well he imprinted on her.

"No, absolutely not unless he's changed and treating girls the way he should. Or if he's felt the pain from a girl that's as equal to what he's caused. No I'm not a fan, it'd take a lot to make me like him." I smile knowing just how much I hate cheaters.

I look outside to see Paul heading toward my baby or car. I walk outside to give him a piece of my mind. Seeing in the corner of my eye Emily and Bella following me.

"Touch my baby and I will cut off your hand boy." I take my stance on the porch getting defensive.

Paul didn't like that too much and went ahead and touched my car whistling, just to spite me. I watched him warning him with my eyes to stop it. He took my warning and decided to fire me up more by opening the car door. Finally I marched right up to him practically charging him. I slapped his cocky face with all my might. The shock factor on his part made it all the more better.

For a moment time seemed at a stand still as he turned to face me again slamming the car door shut. He started to shake all over, but I wasn't scared at that moment. Even as I watched his eyes turn black as he glared down at me. I could hear someone telling Sam to do something but I ignored them. As I looked into Paul's eyes I saw something else, more animal like than human. Almost as if he was a puppy being trained and I was the owner punishing him.

"Paul calm down, you need to calm down." Sam yelled to Paul.

I still didn't move away as someone tugged on my arm to pull me away from him, I stayed grounded. Slowly I reached up and touched where I just hit him, it was turning red. I could feel the stinging in my hand still. I just held my hand there and he almost leaned into my touch.

"I'm... I'm sorry" I said, even though I was glad I did it.

He stopped shaking completely and put his hand over mine. "Is your hand okay?" He whispered to me.

As soon as he said that I realized how much my hand was in pain. It was tingling and felt like it was on fire. I know for a fact that it isn't normal when you slap someone, not that I slap a lot of people. I pulled my hand back and cradled it. I let whoever was puling me away take me with them in the house. They sat me down at the table telling me to wait a sec, I watched as Jacob went in the kitchen and brought back ice.

"Well Wolff, you still got all that spunk in you that I remember." He laughed placing the ice on my hand.

"Thanks Black." I smile at him.

I look to see Bella, Embry, and Emily come inside all looking at me with surprised looks on their faces.

"Bella did you still wanna go cliff diving?" Embry asked looking eager to get out.

"Umm... well" She looked at me unsure.

"Sounds like fun, maybe I could sit on the beach." I suggest.

"I'll stay with you while they all go jumping, I prefer not to." Emily smiles at me and I smile back.

"Someone is going to have to drive my car. I promise not to slap them" I laugh a little as we walk outside to the car. I notice Paul, Jared, and Sam are gone.

"Jacob and I will go in my truck, Embry can drive your car with you and Emily?" Bella suggests.

Embry grins at the idea and we all nod in agreement. It was a short little ride to the La Push beach, Embry drove great as I made small talk with Emily. Turned out her and I were a lot alike, we were gunna get along just fine. They informed me of a bonfire happening Friday and suggested I should go to it. And it just so happens that I have that day off from shows or interviews. Bella and the boys went up a trail to lead to the cliffs as Emily and I sat out on a towel having girl talk and giggling over nonsense.

I watched as the boys as they flew off the edges of the rocks as if it were nothing to them. Finally Bella went and did a girly pencil jump like most of us would have. Emily and I cheered even though they couldn't hear us. We saw the other three boys joy them and jump off the rocks too. Eventually when they got tired of it, some stayed in the ocean swimming. I watched as Sam came out and over to Emily kissing her scars until he reached her lips. I decided to get up and give them some space, walking along the shore not paying attention. Suddenly I knocked into something or rather someone.

"Just who I needed to talk to" I heard him say...
