River POV
So I sat outside the principals office waiting on my dad, great he was going to kill me officially. I never fought or caused problems of any kind my dad wouldn't allow me to disgrace him or myself and yeah I guess I was a goody to shoes but for good reason. The office was dull and boring after an hours talk with Mrs Red Bird about how violence was bad I was exhausted and wanted go home and hide.
Jacobs POV
I phased into wolf after talking to Embry I wasn't in the mood for hanging out, so I wandered through the forests for the morning just following the trail to make sure no bloodsucker where about. I did that for an hour and then I felt something it wasn't painful just something and then it hit me something was up with River. I quickly ran and phased into human form I had to get her an make sure she was alright. I ran into the school through the side door I could smell her scent as I got closer to her, she set outside Mrs Redbirds room holding an Ice pack to her head an looking annoyed.
I ran to her with thinking I lifted her into my arms holding her close to me, just listening to her heart beat.
Me: Are you okay?, who the hell did this to you? ….( I practically screamed, my body had already begin to shake with anger. I slowly let her down afraid of hurting her).
River: I'm fine really….
Me: Who did this?…
River: I kinda was fighting…
Me: What?…with who?…
River: Amber the girl in my maths class , she kind of said some awful things about me and about you…..
River POV
Jacob looked pissed and I could tell he was worried by how gentle he was talking to me. I know fighting is wrong but God help me she deserved it, though I knew my father wouldn't take kindly to me lifting my hand.
Jacobs POV
I placed me hands on her shoulders and looked into her hazel eyes which looked like she was about to cry but keeping it in as usual, I loved her for how strong she was but I knew she needed to release the tension she was carrying.
River: I ignored her at first but she just kept pushing me to it…
Me: hush ( I pulled her into my embrace once more). You did what any other person would have if provoked, but please never fight over me I'm not worth you getting in trouble or worse hurt….now please tell me what that bimbo said to you?
River: She am …said I wasn't apart of the tribe, and that I was some pale face fatty trying to be something I wasn't…( the tears began to trickle down her perfect face) not to mention how she said she had been with you and that was the last thing I remembered….
Me: Whoa what a bitch!….you belong to this tribe no matter what your skin colour is and we're lucky to have someone so pure and good here with us ,plus I have talked to the girl once soon after she was making out with Embry… I wouldn't waste my time with something like her….
River: I thought that but look at you your great looking, though now I feel annoyed with myself for hitting her but it felt good. I liked defending you, your mine that's all I kept saying to myself…. It took two teachers to pull me off her ( She looked down to the floor).
Me: Whoa!, promise me not get on you bad side. But in all seriousness people like her are just jealous of how brilliant and beautiful you are ( I kiss her forehead) An in the end fighting with them , yeah it might make you feel good but it's not worth it…..
River: Well I know that now… ( she tries to stop crying and smirks)My dad's going to kill me….
Me: How about I sit here with you and we'll both face the wrath of him
River: As much as I would love you to protect me from "the Dad" I think it's best I deal with myself…after all I'm tough ( she wipes about her tears).
Me: Yeah, Mrs fight club but I wouldn't mind sitting here with you, I'm in it for the long run ( I cup her face with my hand still trying to comprehend how perfect she was) and I want to protect you from here to the end of the earth and even from a scary father…
River: Well, my father is an exception he's extra scary when he's mad and you've done nothing wrong….
Me: How about I wait here with you an when he's close I'll hide ( I smirk trying to get her to let me stay).
River: I now that also sounds appealing. But please I don't want you here when he yells at me, you'll get upset and we both know how well that will end ( She smiled).
River was stubborn another quality that suited her to me but this was soooo unfair .
Me: Okay you win, but promise to call me later or even I'll be at yours tonight…
River: Good, I might get grounded so be warned …( I kissed her lips softly before hugging her and wishing her good luck, I hoped she would be alright I just wish she would have allowed to stay with her).
