Chapter 34

I wanted to be inside with Seth, but my anxiety wouldn't let me calm down enough to phase back. So I paced back in forth at the river's edge, panting and worrying. Jacob and Rosalie were on the porch with Renesmee talking in hushed tones. Every once in a while I would feel Jacob's eyes on me but I wouldn't look at him. I kept my eyes on the window where I could see the faint shadows of those leeches doctoring my brother.

For Seth's sake, there was probably no one else Seth would want working on him than Carlisle. He had, what, thousands of years of experience. But his absurd and revolting dietary customs didn't really sit well with me.

Why was this all happening? I paused a moment in my pacing as I caught Bella's gaze, I lifted my lips slightly baring my teeth. She looked away and I continued my pacing. The only reason I put myself through this hell was for Seth's safety and now he was injured in the vampire's lair. Why hadn't I been faster? Why hadn't Edward or another leech been closer? Why was Jacob so stupid?

I glanced in Jacob's direction, he was holding Renesmee in his arms and he pulled her back when Rosalie reached out to take her from him. She held a bottle in her hand, I could almost hear the thick sloshing of the blood inside. Their pointless bickering was aggravating.

Why was a blaming all this on everyone else but Bella? She was the real culprit here. After all we did for her she turned around and almost killed my brother in an act of thanks. And I bet you anything Seth isn't holding it against her. She better learn to control her temper quick or I'll control it for her. I paused again to stare daggers into the back of Bella's head, who was obviously trying to ignore my gaze.

I heard faint snoring from inside and I suspected Seth had fallen asleep since he was the only one inside that could sleep. My pacing slowed a bit, relaxing slightly. I wish I could be so calm in the presence of my enemies. Jacob and Seth treated them like they were human beings but I couldn't get pass the whole blood thing, even if they did only drink animal blood.

The sound of sloshing pulled my direction towards the deck. Jacob had won the argument and held Rensemee in his arms while she sucked on her bottle of blood. If there had been any food in my stomach I might have thrown up.

When Renesmee finished Jacob and Rosalie went inside and I saw a flutter of movement from everyone. Must be time to measure the monster. I sat down and waited, evidently Seth wasn't in that much trouble or they would be more focused on him, right? Well they considered him their "friend" just like Seth thought they were his friends. I even heard him comparing them to almost family in his thoughts. I chuckled a bit at remembering the beating I gave him for putting those leeches as high on the totem pole as me.

All of a sudden Jasper burst out the front door with a very agitated look on his face. I quickly got up and moved out of his way. He jumped the river without even acknowledging me, which I preferred. I stared after him, wondering what had pissed him off.

Inside everyone was settling down and I started to settle down myself. I wandered back towards the woods and found the bed that Seth had laid on earlier. I slumped down and could easily see the window that I had stared at Bella through earlier. As I lay there I felt unwanted sleep creep up on me and pull me away from reality.
