Hey guys, just as a warning this will be a boring 'filler' chapter and will lead up to an important event.

I wouldn't Change A Thing Chapter 3

Dear Mags,

I've been getting weird looks from some of the people on the rez. I don't know why they are giving me them, but they seem to be almost knowing looks. I have gotten three in one night, but haven't really experienced any more. But it's still weird Mags.

I haven't really seen Jared around, but that's probably because I haven't gone down to La Push or first beach in quite a while. I probably should get out of the house, not counting school and well...school. Oh and did I tell you that I met Jacob Black?

Jacob Black is someone that I used to know when I actually came here when I was younger. He used to bug me and torture me to absolutely no end. He told me that he used to like me a lot when we were kids. Mags what do you think about that? Do you think that he did? I mean we used to be really good friends and he IS kinda cute right now.

Well Mags, that's all for now. Please write back I need your advise right now. Plus I could really use a friend right now.

Love, always,

Bailey Bunny

The months are passing by and Bella's having nightmare after nightmare. She's really missing this guy that left her. I don't understand how you can love some guy so much after such a short time (*wink* *wink*). Her nightmares are deadly for her, and I'm always waking up and staying up with her until she falls back to sleep. I told Charlie that I would take care of her, and he protested at first but then eventually let me do it.

"EDWARD! EDWARD!" I woke up to Bella screaming out Edward's name again. I woke up and ran my fingers through my hair and sighed. I flipped up the covers and touched my feet to the cold floor and winced. I walked out of my room and saw Charlie, half asleep walking out of his room.

"Charlie don't worry about it. I got it, go back to sleep." Charlie thanked me and went back into his room to go back to sleep. I opened Bella's door and walked into her room and saw her thrashing around. I walked over to her bed and started shaking her lightly. Bella opened her eyes and started sobbing. I sat down on her bed and hugged her and let her cry, before she started going back to sleep.

Once she was asleep I walked back into my room and laid back down on my bed. I closed my eyes and tried to get back to sleep. After half an hour of me trying, I finally fell asleep.

I woke up and looked outside of my window and saw Charlie talking to Bella. He was talking about how she should go back to Jacksonville with my aunt. Bella looked she was about to cry and she started protesting. I didn't know what to think but I didn't want Bella to leave, if she felt then I would be totally alone.

Bella was out with Jacob again, but this time she was going dirt biking with him or something. I didn't want to go because A) I wasn't invited and B) I could tell that he liked her. So they should be alone, besides, maybe she'll stop thinking about the guy that ditched her.

"Hey Bailey!" I turned around quickly and tripped over my one foot and ended up falling to my right. I landed on the ground and stood there a little stunned until Jared ran over and helped me up, while laughing.

"Man you're clumsy." Jared laughed when I was standing properly. I brushed the dirt off of my clothes and straightened my shirt.

"Yeah I'm even clumsier than my cousin." Jared laughed and I noticed that there were 3 more guys walking over to Jared and I. I stood there looking a little nervous when I saw Sam and he gave me that knowing look again. That made me even more nervous.

"Guys this is Bailey Swan." Sam and another guy smiled at me, while the other glared at me. I shrunk away from him in obvious fear.

"I remember you! Jacob and I used to pick on you all the time!" I looked at the guy for a minute before my eyes widened and my jaw dropped.

"YOU!" The guy chuckled and nodded proudly.

"You and Jacob were so mean to me! You both loved to pick on me!" The guy once again laughed and walked closer to me.

"Bet you can't remember my name." I playfully glared at him and crossed my arms over my chest.

"Embry Call you jerk." Embry started laughing and then he gave me a tight hug and picked me up.

"You remembered all the bad stuff and none of the good stuff." Embry put me down and I crossed my arms over my chest again.

"What good stuff?" Embry chuckled and looked back at Jared and Paul who both looked rather confused while Sam was smiling. 'Stupid Sam.'

"Like how I picked you flowers and..." My eyes widened again and I took a step away from him.

"You kissed me in the summer when I was in grade four." Embry smiled proudly and nodded. I rolled my eyes and started pouting lightly.

"You stole my first kiss." Jared started laughing at me before pulling Embry away from me.

"So what are you doing on our rez? You should know that we don't let pale faces here." I rolled my eyes at him, and felt my lonely, shy girl melting away. I guess that's what happened with them. I just felt so comfortable around them. It was weird.

"I'm just walking around. Furthermore I will have you know that I'm the coolest 'Pale Face' you've ever met, so you'd better respect me or else." Jared rolled his eyes and smiled at me. I looked back at Embry, Sam and the other guy and they were all talking amongst themselves quietly. Jared also looked back at them and then he looked back at me.

"Wanna go cliff diving?" I looked at Jared nervously before nodding shyly. It couldn't be that bad could it?

-JB-JB-JB-JB-JB-JB-JB-JB-JB-

"you want me to jump from up here, down there?" Jared laughed and nodded. I gulped and looked over the edge again and then back at him.

"You have got to be kidding me?" Jared shook his head and started pushing me towards the edge.

"Jared no." Jared stopped pushing me and turned around and saw Sam, Embry and the mystery gut standing there.

"It's too high, she'll get hurt." I let out a sigh of relief and practically ran away from the edge.

"You guys go and I'll just watch in horror." Embry chuckled and he started pushing Jared to the edge of the cliff. Once he went over, he started screaming in excitement. I laughed and started enjoying myself until I saw Bella and Jacob standing on a lower cliff staring at me. My eye widened when I connected my gaze with Jacob's. And I started backing up.

"I should go." Jared looked at me oddly, but nodded anyway.

"I'll see you later Bailey." I nodded and waved to the rest of the guys and walked away from the cliff and to the road.

Dear Mags,

The last couple days were nothing but a blur. I was constantly going over to La Push just to walk around and get away from Bella and Jacob always being together. I found Jared a couple times but other times I found Embry. We would walk around and talk and then they would started taking me to the border and they would tell me that I should go home.

I don't know what to do Mags, I'm finding myself getting attached to La Push and the guys, but I don't want to. What if I have an opportunity to come home, to go to my old school? How can I do that while being attached to another place?

Anyway, please write me back Mags. I know that I've wrote twice a day but I need your help Mags. So please, please write me back.

Love, forever and always,

Utterly confused Bailey

"Hey, you wanna come to a movie with Mike and the gang and Jacob and I?" Bella startled me and I jumped a bit before putting my laptop besides me and nodded. She smiled and walked out of my room and probably into her own. I stood up and stretched before following her to her truck.

Soon enough we were at the theatre, when Bella ditched me to go and grab the tickets. I walked over to Mike who smiled widely and I swore he blushed a little.

"Hey! You made it! That's awesome!" I smiled lightly and nodded a little awkwardly. I heard Mike groan and I looked behind me and saw Jacob walking up to us smiling a little forcefully.

"Hey Bailey." I forced a smile and looked down at my feet. 'Why am I so nervous around Jacob all of a sudden? It's like he's got some sort of control over me.'.

"What are you doing here? Aren't you too young to see this movie?" My head snapped up and I looked at Mike who was shooting weird looks at Jacob.

"Bella's buying my ticket and just so you know, if I'm too young to see this movie than Bailey is too." I blushed out of embarrassment and because Mike was staring at me, again.

Bella walked back over to us and the tension that was here, slowly started to melt away. Probably because Jacob was paying attention to Bella and Mike was staring at me.

"Well Jessica bailed and Angela got the stomach flu so Eric's taking care of her so it's just us four." Jacob smiled at Bella and he started following her when she walked by. I shyly walked by Mike and he followed closely. 'A little too closely.'

Halfway through the movie, Mike tried holding my hand and I jerked it away, causing me to hit Jacob accidently. He was starting to get really annoyed at Mike and he kept giving him dirty looks. Then not soon after that Mike got up and left due to the fact that he was 'going to be sick'. I followed him out because truth be told the movie was disgusting.

I was sitting on the stairs looking out through the door thinking about my life back in my old city, my old school, my old friends. I'd felt like I'd abandoned them, like I'd betrayed them.

"You need someone who laughs at the gore, not someone who gets sick because of it." I heard Jacob tell Bella with a laugh added at the end. I quickly wiped away my tears and tried to make it look like I wasn't crying. But Jacob caught on and he quickly sat beside me.

"What's wrong Bailey?" I shook my head and turned away from him. He grabbed my chin and forced me to look at him and then he asked me again.

"What's wrong? Did that loser make you cry? Did he hurt you?" I shook my head and all of our heads turned to Mike who came out of the bathroom.

"I think I'm going to go home. I'm not feeling well." Jacob stood up instantly and got in his face.

"You're not feeling well? What did you do to Bailey?" Mike turned towards me and he saw that I was crying and took a step back out of fear of Jacob.

"I didn't do anything to her. I didn't hurt her." Jacob go even more in his face and he started shaking.

"What if I don't believe you huh? What if I think that you hurt her? I think you need to get hurt as payback." Mike's eyes widened and I stood up and walked in front of Jacob and pushed him back lightly.

"Jacob stop, please, just...just stop. I'm okay. He didn't hurt me." Mike looked from me to Jacob to Bella and then he left the theatre in a hurry.

"Jacob you're burning up. Do you have a fever?" I heard Bella whisper. Jacob didn't say anything he just left the theatre and started walking down the street.

"Eventful night huh?" I looked at Bella and rolled my eyes walking out of the theatre as well.

Authors Note:

Okay so that's chapter 4. So far there have been no signs of Jacob's turning into a werewolf and imprinting until now! I hope you like it and I hope you review! Thanks!
