THANK YOU SO MUCH EMMY!!! you have been a big help. Love you everyone.


After the meeting Sarah invited Sam and his gang over for dinner, They needed to talk about something, I didn't really listen. As we walked back to the car Sarah and Billy were mumbling about something. They would look back at me then mumble again. I razed an eyebrow.

"What are you guy's talking about?" I asked as Sarah unlocked the car and helped Billy in.

"What's going on with you and Jacob?" Billy asked all of a sudden as I put his wheel chair in the back. I felt something tub at my heart, This was not something i wanted to talk about.

"... Nothing, why?" I said, My voice lifeless. Billy frowned and Sarah started the car.

"Jake was sulking on the phone when i rang before to tell him we are having dinner at your place and I wondered if it was something to do with you or if you knew anything about it." He replied.

Jake was sulking?, I thought to myself as i stared out the car window.

"I have no clue" I replied. There's no way he was sulking about me, He must have had a fight with Bella or something.

"Smell's awesome Sarah" Paul said as she put the food on the table.

"Thank you" She smiled "dig in." She said laughing. Everyone started eating -Paul, Billy, Sam and Sarah- when I just played with my food, pushing my potato's with my small shiver fork. Jacob Black, Jacob, Jake, my Jakey… I repeated his name over in my head.

No matter what I did I couldn't get him out of my head -not that it wasn't normal for me to be thinking about him so much- but I just his and her face wouldn't leave my mind.

Bitch, I thought bitterly, she had a boyfriend… why does she have to have both?!, I though harshly about Bella. I still felt bad though, I couldn't blame her. It simply wasn't her fault.

"Eat darling." Billy laughed, lightly hitting his fork on the side of my plate, making a small ting. I snapped from my gaze in to nothing and blankly looked at him.

"oh… sorry" I said cutting a huge peace of steak and putting in my mouth, it was delicious, perfect with a hint of pepper. Paul laughed and I looked at him one eyebrow razed, still chewing the steak in my mouth.

"Small girl's like you should cut there steak a bit smaller. It would be easier too chew." He teased. I swallowed what was left and smiled.

"a boy like you shouldn't wolf his food down like that, you could choke and die." I shoot back, Paul smirked and went to say something but Sam gave him a strange look.

"So Emma, how was your day?" Sarah asked. I bit my lip, remembering what happened a few hours ago with Jacob, Paul carrying me home and the strange thing that chased me.

"it was… fine I guess" I choked out, Paul scoffed. I looked at him and he returned a look saying he knows what's wrong and that I cant hind it from him.

Could he really know?, I thought pulling my eyebrows together and looked back to my plate.

"that's nice sweetie" Sarah said cheerfully.

We sat and ate our food, Billy talking to Sam and Sarah about something I wasn't really listening to. Paul had finished before anyone and started on the English toffee ice cream, which happened to be mine.

"So Sam, would you like some ice cream?" Sarah asked nicely.

"No Thanks." Sam said shaking his head. Paul smiled. Mouth full of ice cream.

"Yes Paul, you can have some more." Sarah said rolling her eyes. "You want some sweetie?" Sarah asked me.

I smiled, "I can get it." I said getting up and grabbing the plates from her. As I walked out I could hear them talking about something. I picked up on small parts of it.

"We have to tell her" Sarah said. There was mumbling then "She's not ready" I think Billy or Sam said.

"I can protect her until see fully understands" Paul said.

"So can Jake." Billy protested, as soon as I heard Jakes name I tuned in completely. not watching what I was doing I dropped the spoon I was holding. It slipped from my finger's and fell to the floor, making a loud dinging noise. They stopped.

"You ok?" they called from the other room.

"Yeah I'm.. Fine just dropped a spoon." I called back nervously, quickly picking up the spoon and washing it. I got mine and Paul's ice cream.. I stopped before I walked back in, waiting for them to start talking again but nothing, just tiny mumbles. I sighed and walked back in.

"here Paul" I said handing the bowl of ice cream. I sat back down in my chair.

What was all that about?, I asked myself. What could they be hiding?

"Hey Paul maybe one day you should take Emma out to the beach and show her how to cliff dive" Sarah said, Paul looked at her stunned with ice cream running down his chin, Sam nearly spat out his drink and my ice cream got caught in my throat making me choke.

"What?" She asked looking at all of us. "I didn't mean it like a date, just a day at the beach" She said shrugging her shoulder's. I opened my mouth to saying something but Billy got there first.

"We still need to talk about the…. Thing" He said to Sam and Sarah.

"oh yeah" She replied "baby can you go wait out side for a few minutes, we just need to talk about something ok" She smiled.

"sure, sure" I said but wished I didn't. I got up and walked out side with my bowl of ice cream.

I couldn't help but notice how weird Paul was acting towards me. And what the hell were they talking about before, what did Paul mean by ' I can protect her until she fully understands'? I wasn't even sure if it was about me.

I sighed, reminiscing all the things Paul has said and done around me.

-memory-

"I'm Paul. Sarah insisted we watch over you."

"don't fucking touch her!" Paul yelled, so much angry was in his voice I jumped.

"are you ok." Paul asked worried.

Paul put his hands on each side of my face. "Emma are you ok?" he asked again. "I'm going to kill that fuck head" he said to himself.

-memory ended-

I winced at the thought of the bonfire. I had Paul and Sam to thank for my safety that night. Paul stuck up for me and scared Mike away, but why does he care so much?

-memory-

"just looking around" he said calmly but still had the angery look he always wears upon his face.

"let me walk you home."

"I'm not letting you walk home by yourself Emma, its getting dark." he order, the tone of his voice was strong.

"Emma what's wrong?"

"Emma tell me."

-memory ended-

Paul startled me that day, after getting chased made me jumpy and I never thought I would run in to him. I also felt bad because I broke the promise I made to Jacob, but did that matter any more.

He lied to me so why cant I talk to someone that's harmless?, I thought I finished the last of my ice cream.

Paul saved you, he cares for you, he's wants to protect you Emma!, The other voice said to me.

I don't see him like that, I see him as a close friend, I told myself.

I sighed, I was now fighting with myself. How insane can you get?

I looked over towards Jacob's house. why didn't he come over for dinner?

I sat down on the steps now by myself again, by myself to go slowly insane from my own tainted, crazy mind.

"I'm suck here with you" I said to my brain, Putting my head on my knees.

"Emma?" Someone replied.

"Great, I am insane." I said thinking it was in my head talking back.

"Emma who are you talking to?" The voice spoke again, Only this time i knew it wasn't in my head. I looked up to find Paul standing in front of me. He was with the boy from the meeting, He smiled shyly and waved.

"Hi, I'm Jared" He put out his hand.

"Hey I'm-"

"Emma" He answered for me. He seemed really nervous.

"Yeah" I replied. Paul was grinning, holding back a laugh. He couldn't do it, he screamed out laughing. Me and Jared looked at him, one eyebrow razed.

"What are you laughing at?" I asked.

"I cant believe you believed me!" He said holding his stomach still laughing. Jared's face changed from the confused look to now angry.

"You lied to me!" He yelled chasing Paul around the yard, I sat there confused.

"What just happened?" I said to myself as they ran in to the woods.

I sighed, boys, I thought shaking my head.

The house went silent, no more muffled talking or even a foot step. I waited for someone to say something to tell me nothing was wrong. but nothing, nothing but silence. I stood up and faced my house.

a loud sound rang through the house and Sam came bursting through the door, body stiffened and... and growling. I jumped back with a small wince.

"Emma go to Billy's" Sarah order from behind Sam.

"Why?" I asked back, Sam walked over and hugged me.

"don't worry everything's fine." he whispered before running off in to the woods.

I stood there clueless, not knowing what was going on. what the hell going on?

"Go Emma!" Sarah yelled. I flinched from her tone of voice and turned and started running for his house. something was wrong, very wrong.

what's could be so wrong? what's happening?, I thought as I got to Jacob's front door.

I knocked hard, slamming my fists against his small wooded door over and over. Then something smacked the back of my head, making me hit my head on the door and black out. there was nothing but the sound of chucking.

"ouch my head" I said getting up, touching the back of my head but flinching away from the pain.

"Emma" Jacob said next to me.

"yeah… my head just hurts.. Why?" I asked rubbing my eyes and looking at him. He looked stressed, tried and worried. I gasped.

"Jake you look horrible!" I said and he looked down.

"I'm fine." he said. "are you ok?" he asked.

"Jacob… I'm.. I'm fine." I stood up, a spill of dizzy and head spin's hit me and I sat back down.

"You don't look fine Em." he said handing me a glass of water.

Why is he so stressed?, I asked myself as I sipped my cold water. The memories of what happened before, what happened at my house with Sam and Sarah.

"Where's Sarah?" I asked panicky. I put the glass down and looked at Jake.

"she's at home, don't worry. They told me to take you home after you wake up." he replied. Something was different, something about him.

"I should go then" I said getting up. My head hurt so much, I wasn't sure if my head had been bleeding or not but it felt sticky and hot.

"Emma wait" Jake said getting up quickly. I turned and faced him, his face was masked with guilt.

"about today.. With Bella. I'm sorry I-" he walked forward, I felt bad. He looked so sorry for what he had done. I couldn't blame him, he was just trying to protect me and not hurt me.

"Jacob please. You don't have to say sorry." I comforted him. His face dropped.

"but I do, I lied to you Emmy. Something I never thought I would do but Bella is.. And I was…" he trailed off, sitting down on his tiny couch and sighing.

"Jake, don't" I sat down next to him. "you really don't need to say sorry for what you did…. But" I moved uncomfortable.

"but…" he asked grabbing my hand and wrapping his hung, oddly hot ones around it.

"but I have to take back the promise I made to you… the promise about not talking or seeing Sam and Paul." his grip on my hand tighten and his jaw clenched. His eyes flickered from each of my eyes and then he looked away but quickly to me again.

"why?…" he asked quietly, his voice pained. It confused me.

"Because… I owe it to Paul, he saved me from… Mike" Jake growled at his name. although I found it weird for him to literally growl like an animal but I was thinking about more important things on my mind.

"and Sam is close to Sarah, he comes over a lot now and I like him, I like them. There nice guys Jacob." I finished. I could tell what I said hurt him but it was true. They have been nothing but nice to me and Sarah which means a lot to me.

Jake was quite, thinking hard. He sat back in to the couch and pressed his full luscious lips together making a thick line. He put his free hand to his mouth and taped his finger against his lip.

"do you like Paul" he asked me all of a sudden. I looked at him, his face was serious, jealous.

"in what way?" I asked standing up, also braking the grip of his hand.

"more then a friend" he said standing up. My mouth dropped open.

Why is he asking me this?, I thought as I stared in to his eyes.

He's jealous, the other voice replied. I was starting to hate this voice.

"No!" I said and his face softened "I don't like him more then a friend"

"good…" he said smiling. "he's bad news" he said to himself.

"Jacob I'm going now ok. Sarah would be worried. I should get back" I said and he looked in to my eyes.

"I will see you soon right?" he asked, I uncontrollably smiled. He wants to see me again how else could I react.

"of course Jake" I said and he pulled me in to a hug. After the goodbyes I walked out side, it was bitterly cold and my nose felt cold almost wet. I closed the front door and started walking home.

I stepped on something shape and hard. "ouch, what the fuck" I said to myself as I bent down and picked whatever was under my foot.

I walked back to the porch and held up what I stepped on to the light.

"wow.." I gasped to myself as I held up a metallic rock.

It was small but hard, looked to be made out of some kind of rock but laced with metal or something. It had words all over it but they didn't make sense, I'm not even sure if it was English.

"there's blood on it" I said out loud to myself as I turned the rock around finding a small patch of dry blood on it. I felt the back of my head again. This is what hit me.
