When I got to Emily's house almost everyone was there. I hopped out of my car with the pies in my arms. I didn't walk very far till Jake and Sam came and helped me with the pies. I was guessing that they smelt the aroma but I didn't ask.

"Hey Bells!" Jake said enthusiastically.

"Hey Jake. Why are you all excited?" I asked.

"Oh nothing. You will find out later." He said and flashed me a toothy grin. I rolled my eyes and heard Sam laugh beside me. Since the boys took the pies out of my hands I went up to go introduce myself to Emily. I sensed that she was in the house so I walked inside. There she was, with her back towards me. Weird…how did I know she was in here? ...instinct I guess, my mind thought. I cleared my throat and she quickly turned around

"Hi. Sorry I didn't mean to scare you, im Bella." I said

"oh, its ok. Im Emily. Its nice to meet you. I have heard a lot about you." She said to me. Emily was beautiful. He had medium length hair that was a mix of like a light brown and a sandy goldish blond. She had beautiful blue eyes and a nice smile. (A/N. Sorry, im making up her description.)

"did you need any help?" I offered.

"uhh, yea. Sure thing. Can you just bring that stuff out to the tables?"

"Sure, no prob. Oh! And I brought some pies for dessert too."

"Really? That's awesome! I needed some desserts besides my cookies for this party." She laughed. I laughed along with her.

I brought out the munchies to the table.

"Hey Bella!" I heard.

I turned around to see pretty much the whole pack sitting on big cut of trunks of trees. I laughed to myself and waved. I headed back inside to see if Emily needed anything else. She said she didn't but we ended up talking a bit in the kitchen.

She seemed like a really nice person. The oven rang, which meant the food was ready. About a minute after that, the whole pack started coming into the kitchen with plate in hand. Emily and I laughed.

"What?" the whole pack said with their mouths full looking at us.

I shook my head smiling. "nothing. Please, Continue."

They all looked at Emily and me oddly but continued eating. As they continued Emily and I couldn't stop laughing. At first It was because of there eating like salvages but then we just laughed at each other. The whole pack looked at us like we were nuts. Then Sam finally spoke up.

"Bells? Relax. You both are going to end up giving yourselves heart attacks." Emily and I took a few deep breaths and finally calmed down. "we're good." I declared for the both of us. Emily and I then grabbed our first helping, while the rest of them grabbed their fourths. It was like the perfect memory. My Family. I would call it. I made sure to commit this to memory so I could draw it out later.

We talked about nothing and laughed our heads off. It was the best time of my life. Then, all of the sudden, my phone started to vibrate and ring. I froze.

I sat there and looked at my phone but didn't dare to pick it up. As the ringing continued, the pack started to quite down and look at me. The song that played to let me know she was calling made me feel empty inside.

Sam gently took my hand. "Bells, honey, are you going to pick that up?" he asked sweetly.

Then the ringing stopped. It went to voicemail. I relaxed a little, and just as Sam was about to say something it rang again and my position went back to its original state. Everybody stood still just looking at me, wondering what I was going to do

Then Jake finally moved towards me and spoke up.

"Bells, who is it?" he asked reaching to grab my phone.

I quickly moved it away from his reach.

"Leave it alone Jake." I said in a desperate yet serious tone.

The ringing stopped yet again and I let out a breath I was holding. I couldn't believe she was calling me. After what she said, how dare she! The peace didn't end for long because it started ringing again.

"Belly?" Leah said. 'Belly' was her nickname for me… She called me that since we became friends.

"Sweetie, who is it?" she asked pleading.

"I-I….." I couldn't seem to form words correctly. I couldn't seem to focus. The ringing wouldn't stop and everyone was talking to me at once.

"SHUT UP!" I yelled.

"Please just shut up." I said softly. Everybody was suddenly quite. All you could hear was the ringing of the phone.

I sighed and answered the phone.

"Hi Renee." I said bluntly.

"Oh Honey! ." she said quickly.

Of course, I understood everything she said, but every time I heard her voice I thought about the day she told me the truth of who I really am, of where I really belong. It made me feel so….empty.

Pretty much the whole pack was listening in except for Emily because she was a normal human. Jake made a growling sound and Sam looked at me with curiosity in his eyes. It especially heightened when Jake growled. He looked from me, to him, and back to me. Jake apparently kept his promise-he didn't tell anyone, not even the pack.

I must have forgotten to respond in a timely matter like Renee wanted me to, because she was practically shouting my name over the phone.

"Isabella Swan, You answer me right this instant." She yelled.

Anger suddenly surged through my veins. My hands turned into fists. And I took a deep breath. I couldn't loose control in front of everyone. I worked too hard to keep my secrets a secret.

"What do you want" I almost growled.

"Well, I was going to apologize but by your attitude I guess im not." She said rudely.

"You know, I think you should stop acting like a big brat and get over yourself." She said. "Your lucky I told you who you really are, what I saved you from." I quickly looked up to the pack. They were all standing there, looking at me. I knew they were all listening to me so I motioned to them that I was going to go in the other room. Jake took a step forward and growled once again but Sam held his arm out in his way. Sam then whispered something in Jake's ear. I decided to listen to what he was telling Jake that made him take a step back and calm down a little.

"Jake, man, calm down. If she has to go in the other room so be it We can still listen. If she says anything to Bella that makes Bella upset we will be there ok? Now take a step back and cool it-and Jake, that's an order."

I smiled a little I loved how they wanted to protect me, but I didn't need it nor deserve it. By stepping out of the room I could put up a shield around myself and the conversation between me and my mom. It would not only let me cry while she was talking to me but also make it more inconspicuous.

I walked to the opposite end of the house and sat on a guest bed. I then put up a shield around myself and the phone.

"So are you ready to get the fuck home yet?" She asked snottily.

"No. Im not going back to that hell hole of a place I once called home. Im happy here."

Jake must have gotten scared that he couldn't hear the conversation. "Bella?" He called behind the door.

"Is that a boy?...truly embracing who you are, aren't you Bella? Becoming the whore you were truly made to be?"

I couldn't believe the person I once called 'mom' was saying these things to me. Tears cascaded down my cheeks.

"No!!! Shut up! That's not true!" I yelled at her in the phone

"Bella! Open this door right now!" Jake yelled.

"You know Bella, I expected more of you. I thought that with these 'gifts' you possessed you would at least try to be a little bit unselfish and save people but I guess not." Renee said. By this time I was practically sobbing my eyes out. That's not true. I thought to myself.

"Sam! Do something!" Jake yelled behind the door.

"Bella! Honey, Please…let us in. We need to see you. Please!!" he said begging me.

"Don't you see Bella. I have told you this over and over but you cant seem to get that fucking brain to work correctly. Stop being so selfish and leave. By you making friends with them, you are putting them in danger…or is that what you want? Them to get killed. Of course, I wouldn't be surprised to find out my whore of a daughter would want that."

"Stop, stop…please…stop!" I begged.

"Why Bella dear, cant handle the truth?" she asked evilly.

"Before you know it Bella, they will be dead." Renee laughed.

All of the sudden the door broke down and Jake and Sam came rushing in.

"Bella!!" they cried.

"Nice chatting with you dear! See you soon." She said and then hung up.

I closed the phone and threw it across the room. It ended up hitting a wall and falling to the ground. I put my head to my knees and sobbed.

"Bells, honey, its ok. I got you." Sam repeatedly whispered while rocking me back and forth. Jake sat there taking in the scene played out before him. As my sobs started to calm down and my tears slowly stopped, Jake spoke up in a shaky voice.

"S-Sam. Can I have a moment alone with Bella please?"

"Jake…"

"Sam. Please, I need to talk to Bella." He said in a determined voice.

Sam looked at me, asking for approval and I nodded my head yes. I moved out of Sam's lap and hugged my knees to my chest. I looked up to see Jake stopping Sam.

"Don't listen in ok? The pack either." He said in a stern voice.

"Jake…."Sam said in a alpha voice.

"Please Sam, this is Bella's wishes, and im sticking to them, whether you like it or not." He said.

Sam gave in and nodded his head. He looked at me one more time before walking out to talk to the pack.
