Chapter 9: A Change in Plans

Claudia, Emmett, Edward and Amelia bounded through the thick forest of Forks, Washington with sheer power. They laughed as they did flips over rocks and aerials through tree branches, everyone was having a great time . . .

A howl came from the distance, stopping everyone in their path. They all looked to the east and another howl was called, the sound was agonizing as if the wolf was dying. A few things ran through Amelia's head but one thought rang out among the others. Jacob. She was worried and she didn't know what to do, she looked at Edward and his look was just as concerned. The couple took off in the direction of the source while Claudia and Emmett continued to the house.

Edward and Amelia ran side by side with adrinaline running through their veins, if it was possible. The tension in Amelia's body sent her flying past her beloved Edward with amazing speed, he had to strain to keep up with her.

When they reached the site, Amelia put her hand to her mouth in shock.

"How did this happen?" Amy asked Edward as he stood behind her. All he could do was shake his head in response.

A wolf (werewolf) was lying on the ground, whimpering, as blood oozed from his chest. His fur was a dark brown and medium in length. Amy walked up to him and she could hear the gentle growl rumbling through his chest as she got closer. "Oh, hush! I'm trying to help you." The head tilted towards her and the eyes were wide with shock. He looked so familiar but Amy could vaguely remember him, all of her human memories were thin. "His name is Austin." Edward nodded in the wolf's direction.

"Can you change form?" the wolf gave her smartass look.

Edward chuckled a little, "He said 'if I could change, don't you think I would have done that already?'" Amy glared at Austin with a brow raised.

"Do you want me to help you or not?" The wolf sighed and its head plopped back on the ground.

"He said 'yes'." Edward clarified. Amy waved for him to come over and help her, Edward groaned and walked up to the wolf without much care. Edward pressed along the wolf's side and when he reached a spot where Austin flinched, Edward got to work.

Edward pulled a huge piece of metal out of Austin's side and the wolf seemed relieved that he was finally done. "He said 'thank you' to both of us."

Amy walked up to Austin's head and pushed back the fur that was in his face, "No problem, smartass. If you need anything else, we'll be around." She smiled and it was Edward's turn to growl. The wolf let out a bark that sounded more like a laugh than anything else. "What did he say?" Amelia asked.

"He said 'You're not too bad for a couple of bloodsucking leeches'." Edward growled between clenched teeth. Amelia glared at the wolf and Austin stopped laughing and bounded off through the trees, leaving Amelia shocked.

"Where did he go?" Amelia asked sadly. Edward sighed and pinched the bridge of his nose.

"He's trying to change his form, his clothes are near by." Amelia walked up to Edward and kissed his cheek. He looked down at her with a crooked smile that still made her woozy and he kissed her forehead. "You are very good at distracting me from killing a werewolf with my bare hands, you know that?"

Amelia giggled, "I do now."

Austin came back with nothing on other than a pair of Levis and some boxers that you could vaguely see. There was a pink mark that reached his bellybutton to the top of his ribs. Amelia will never stop being amazed at how fast they heal. "I wanted to say thank you in person. I'm not sure what happened, it just came out of no where!" His voice was deep and his hair was down past his chin, his chest was muscular and his arms were thick.

"Like I said, its not a problem. We could hear you from miles away and I wanted to make sure that whoever it was, was okay."Amelia smiled a lightning white smile that left Austin a bit breathless.

Austin smiled a toothy grin, "And sorry about the whole 'bloodsucking leeches' thing. I'm not used to having . . . acquaintances among vampires."

Amelia shook her head, "Well that's the difference between you and I because I am used to having friends among werewolves." She corrected. Amy didn't want to be enemies with werewolves forever, she already had trouble before, she doesn't want that trip again. Quil looked shocked.

"I knew I remembered you! Amelia! You were my father's friend." Austin chuckled, he slapped his forehead with realization. Amelia looked at Edward and he shrugged his shoulders in response.

"Do I know you?" Amelia asked confused.

"My name is Austin Black. Jacob is my father," Amelia's voice was stuck in her throat.

It took a while for Amy to unclog her throat of the utter shock that she was going through. "You father was a great man."

Austin scoffed at her words, "I wish I could say the same. We didn't get along at all and for that, I am greatful because I have lost nothing by not letting him get close." Amelia's eyes burned with anger and her fists clenched with power. Austin fell to the ground, writhing in pain. Edward ran to Amy and put a hand on her shoulder, a powerful shock ran through his body, sending him to his knees. "Amy," he croaked through the pain. She looked at him and her eyes were pure black and her nostrils were flared.

Austin gasped on the ground as he pulled himself to his hands and knees, "What the hell is wrong with you? How could you say that about your father, he was a great man and still is even after death! If I ever catch you saying such hateful words about Jacob again, you will be wishing that you were in that casket with him!"

Austin's eyes were filled with tears, "HE WOULDN'T LET ME BE WITH HER! Okay? IT'S ALL HIS FAULT, I LOVED HER!" His fists pounded at the forest's floor with large thunderous crashes. His sobs were loud and heavy, it would be a shock that no one in town heard him. Amy's attention was back to Edward who was trying to control his breathing, though it didn't do him much good.

"I am so sorry honey, are you okay?" Edward nodded but his jaw was set and his body was tense.

"I'll be okay," his voice cracked in pain. Amelia felt horrible about what she did to him, even if it was accidental. She leaned his muscular body against a tree trunk and moved the hair out of his eyes. Edward's arm was around his stomach and his eyes were closed. "I am so sorr-"

"I'm fine. I'm very proud as well, that was powerful," he smiled and she shook her head.

Austin was still on his knees crying, but it was more quiet. "What did you mean by 'its his fault'?" Amy asked as she sat in front of him. He looked at her with red eyes and trembling lips. Austin wiped his eyes furiously and sat down on his butt rather than his knees.

"I was in love wtih a girl," he said in a haunted voice. "She was perfect! Her hair, her smile, her intellegence. Everything was utterly perfect. She was in love as well, but it was with another guy. I loved her so much, we hung out all the time too. I just don't see why she couldn't have loved me too."

"Maybe she did, but with another kind of love. Maybe she thought that you brought sunlight to her dark world while the other guy brought her the pleasure of adventure and chances. Maybe she loved you but you didn't know it, even if it was plastered on her forehead," Amelia said with sadness.

"Maybe . . . but we would have been so happy together. We could have gotten married, have kids, live in a nice house with a picket fence. ANYTHING! I just . . . I wish . . . Ugh! I wanted her to pick me, I wanted her to love me. Is that so much to ask?" Austin asked in agony. He held his hands out to her, they trembled viciously.

"No, maybe not. But maybe she knew that, maybe she wanted to be happy with you and have all those things but . . . maybe she just couldn't." Amelia was on the verge of her own sobs. Though she didn't have tears, she could still cry. It was painful but it still happened.

"That doesn't make sense, how could she not?" Austin got defensive.

"Maybe she just didn't want to make that choice because she was happy having both of you just the way you are," Amy looked him in his tear filled eyes and suddenly realization hit him like an eightteen wheeler.

"I . . . I kind of understand now. Thank you, again." Austin stood up and held his hand out for Amy to take. She took it with quick moments and it stunned him momentarily. "You really are a great person, Amelia." He held his hand out to give her a hand shake.

"You're not so bad yourself," she threw her arms around his neck and his arms wrapped around her petite waist. The warmth of his embrace brought back the painful memory of her friend Jacob. The clarity of it all seemed to be so real and it made her want to cry. "If you ever need anything . . ."

"I'll ask you, don't worry." Austin said as he let Amy go. "I'll see you again some other time?"

"Indeed you will." She smiled a brilliant smile and he left with his father's grin.

"Honey? How are you doing?" Amy asked as she turned to him. He had managed to get himself in a standing position. He was grinning at her with his beautiful smile and she looked at him curiously. "What?"

"Nothing. Have I told you I love you lately?" He walked over to her. Edward planted a breath taking kiss upon Amy's lips before they began to walk in the direction of the Cullen's house.

"You seem to be better," Amelia teased.

Edward smiled with his pearly white teeth, "What can I say? Your kisses heal me."

A/N: I am sooooooo sorry that this took forever. I promise to not leave this behind anymore!!! :)
