Chapter 2
I got back to the house and Jacob was awake and eating more than his share of the food. I guess it is a good thing that none of the other family members have to eat food because there wouldn't be enough to go around. I sat down next to Jacob and he held out a piece of bacon that I took a bite of. I don't need to eat food being half vampire, but when I am around Jacob it makes me feel normal, and it makes him forget that I drink blood. "Did you enjoy your run?" I took a sip of his orange juice before answering. "Yeah, it felt really good to run around the woods. I still haven't figured out why I have this urge to run all the time."
Edward looks at Bella just before he turns to me and says, "Maybe it has to do with what you have been hunting lately. When I catch a mountain lion I always feel like running." This would have been a great reason if I had been hunting in the last two weeks. What he didn't know was that when I said I was going hunting I was really working on restoring a 1967 Shelby Mustang for him as a graduation gift. I cleared my head quickly so that I wouldn't let my dad see the gift. It is very difficult to lie to my father he normally sees right through them but I am really trying to not get caught. "Yeah, I guess that could be it."
Jacob reached out and touched my hand and not being prepared I let him see the fear I was trying to hide inside me. "So what is the newest danger for us today?" Knowing he would soon find out I didn't bother trying to lie, "Alice saw some old "friends" coming to visit this morning. We don't know what they want just that they are coming."
Jacob ate some more food that was on his plate before he stood up and kissed my forehead. "Well I guess I should leave then. I would hate for the Volturi to get violent because of me." Edward looked up and replied, "Actually Jacob we think it would be best if you stayed here. They may be coming because of you and Reneesme. Unfortunately Alice can't see the whole afternoon I am guessing it has something to do with your pack being outside waiting for you." I shook my head and looked out the window above the sink. "Well at least we won't have to worry about going to class today." I point out the sun coming through the clouds.
